27 (twenty seven)
Another year passed by so quickly and it’s that time of the year again! I might not have been posting religiously here, but here I am. Another year, another annual birthday post/life update.
I keep saying how crazy it is that I am getting older yet it always felt like I am the same old me every day. Yet I have changed if I look at myself even just a year ago.
I have been practicing to have a more positive outlook on life and improving daily. I am not as grumpy and gloomy as I was. Sure life doesn't go the way you want it to, but finding small happiness every day has kept me going. New YouTube videos from my favorite channel, and new episodes from the show that I am watching. My routine is pretty boring, but those small things kept me alive.
I am turning 27 years and sometimes when I look at myself in the mirror, I feel like a stranger. I have spent my whole life with me, but I don’t seem to know myself well enough. If you ask me about my height, weight, job, educational background, etc, sure it’s easy to answer. But if you ask me what kind of person I am, I will be thinking about it for a good while and I will be getting back to you in a few business days.
I never knew that at 27 years I would still be living with my parent. I never knew that at 27 years I would still be single and barely seeing anyone. I never knew that I would still be unsure of the future and that I would still be figuring things out. I never knew that I would still be finding a new hobby, a new goal, a new passion.
I never knew that at 27 years old I would keep seeing a new version of myself. A version of me who is passionate about my job, a version of me who gets excited over small things, a version of me who gets emotional and cries over a sad song. Every day is a journey of discovering many versions of myself.
I will be forever grateful to my family and my closest friends for making my Wednesday feel so special with their warm greetings and wishes. For keeping me company and keep the fire in me burning.
Another year passed, another year of a roller coaster ride. I will never know how close I am to the end of this ride called life, but I hope that I will enjoy every second of it.
