This year

2011 was my gap year.

At the beginning of the year, I was pretty sure I knew what I wanted to do for my future. But as the year progressed, I wasn’t so sure after all.

Nonetheless, I really enjoyed 2011.

This year, I…

  • took floral arrangement lessons
  • picked up playing the cello again
  • made 52 creative projects
  • cut my hair into a bob, then grew it out again
  • helped plan for family church camp
  • started giving piano lessons
  • learnt (still learning) how to be satisfied in God
  • went to prayer group (almost) every other Wednesday
  • traveled to Hong Kong and Beijing and loved every minute of it
  • started this blog
  • took the SATs
  • played for, and sang in a church wedding
  • helped out at Saturday children’s clubs in church
  • made new friends
  • took O-level higher Chinese exams
  • read 23 books
  • turned 20

I did all that and more this year, to say the least.

In addition to the twenty list, here’s what I hope for 2012: be more organized and punctual, complete another 52 creative projects, and spend consistent, daily time with God.

I think the last one might the one I hope I will be best at.

Goodbye, 2011.
You were a good year.

Here’s to an amazing 2012!

xoxo.
