As we nose dive into this new year, let us remember the ups and downs of last year. To be honest, last year sucked. It sucked big time. And no, not being a pessimist here but, really tho. Despite sucking so hard, it was a year filled with change. A year that is constantly changing, the people I meet, the people I work with, the people I get close to, the people who left me. On hindsight, it was probably one of the biggest whirlwind of a year I've ever had. So instead of focusing on the negatives, I'll just list some of the things I'm grateful for in 2013.
1) Getting a full time job as an AED
This is probably one of the things that I was so excited for. All those countless emails I've sent to those at MOE recruitment. There was actually a time where I actually just stopped worrying cause I gave up, I didn't hear from them for so long I guess there's no point hoping anymore. Then that phone call came and yup, I got the job.
2) Being a band instructor
Ever since I joined band back in secondary 2, I've always loved learning and teaching music/instruments to people. I guess it's the joy of seeing people being able to make music and share the love of music. Being a band instructor opened up my eyes to a world full of hope and love. Up till now I miss teaching them, seeing their faces light up as I walked into class. But I'm sure they're in safe hands. I will try to make time to come back just to see them. And also there's the band that has become my family from my 1 year teaching there. I really wish to see them again soon.
