Dear 2011


We didn’t get along every day. We had our ups and downs. Like most of the past years honestly, but you, 2011, were somehow different.

So I’d like to thank you. Yes thank you, especially for the bad things that made me realize the good there is. Thank you for the people I lost along the way. No matter the good times we passed together, no matter how much I tried to keep our friendship, it got lost. To you I say screw you. I’m fed up of always keeping up with you and searching for you and not being searched. I hope you don’t come up next year asking for something, because believe me, I won’t be polite anymore.

Thank you for New York. It was freaking cold and more than once I was sure that when I’d take off my socks I would find my feet blue. But still, thank you. The city was amazing, captivating. I hope to visit it again in summer.

Thank you for the job. It wasn’t what I had in mind, but it turned out to be rewarding and challenging. I like it.

Thank you for Cleopatra, my cat. Now I can’t imagine my life without her. I think though, she thinks she is a dog; she keeps licking my face! I love her.

Thank you for the loneliness, it made me realize that this is not what I want.

Thank you for everything that inspired me. I’ve finally decided to follow my dream and write.

Thank you 2011.

New year, new life. 2012 I’m coming with big new year’s resolution: have FUN, follow my dreams and LIVE!

sincerely,

S
