Soon to end a quick year...

 Peace be upon you, readers!

In the matter of days, the calendar will flip from 2022 to 2023. In fact, this year passed really quick, or maybe I was occupied all the way from January to date. So, how was my 2022?

I don't know where and how to begin, but one word to conclude 2022; SWIFT. 2022 was a year of recovery from the pandemic, everything was back to normal again and we were excited to do everything we had been wanting to do when we were locked up in the comfort of our own home. Well, school had been (really) busy. I was redeployed, thus I had new environment to adapt and get used to. I hold new position and that made me occupied every months. I had my 30th born anniversary trip to KL end of February and went to Semporna for Discover Scuba Diving (DSD) end of May. Life started quick again after June with school activities and whatnot. I missed a few applications for scholarships and also GC. There's always next year, but it can never be the same. October was the busiest by far, I had courses almost every week. November wasn't bad too, I spent mostly out from school in November. Then, comes December!

So, am I here for another new year's resolutions? I didn't remember if I had any this year, and whether I went achieving it or not. I lost track. Was 2022 that bad? Not really. It had been good. It taught me a lot, like previous years but this year was even better. I learnt that people didn't actually change, they just showed their true colours. I learnt to let go of a toxic friendship, I learnt to appreciate myself even better. I learnt to be kind to everybody and mind my own business, I learnt to not easily judge people and respect their decision on how to behave. I learnt to be grateful of everything, be it good or bad because whatever happened to you was due to Allah's will. I learnt to keep going, not following the flow because following the flow would make you drown sometimes. Life was too short to be worry, appreciate and live my life like there was no tomorrow. 

Well, do I keep a new year's resolution for 2023. Let me think if I have any. Nevertheless, I think I'd like to recall my 7Ss if it can fit my 2023's resolutions...

1st S: Solat and Sembahyang, I need to improve on this especially during musafir period. I need to relearn how to Jamak.

2nd S: Sihat and Sejahtera. Gosh, I gained weight since I moved to this new school. No exercises on the weekend like I used too. Please, EXERCISE and EAT HEALTHILY!

3rd S: Simpan or Saving. Please commit to save a fraction of my income to Tabung Haji every month!

4th S: Sedekah... all the time, not during Ramadhan month only. Sedekah on Ayah's behalf too.

5th S: Syukur. Be grateful and always remember, in your rezeki there are also others.

6th S: Social Media cleansing. Well, I can live without Facebook & Twitter for more than a year now. But I'm currently on Tik Tok and have been addicted to it. Gosh!

7th S: Success. I gained a few successes this year but I need to do more to achieve more. GC and scholarship, or maybe publishing my own story books for young children, produces digital arts and sell them on Etsy of Shoppee! More action researches and more writings, and present papers in a few conferences! PLEASE!!!

They are still applies for 2023. We'll see if 2023 serves me any good. Insha Allah.

Thanks for spending some times reading my post! See ya!
