Kissing 2010 Good Bye….

So, I woke this morning realizing it’ll never be 2010 again, I mentioned before how fast this year has been… and I’m not gonna change my mind about that (it was super fast actually)… but all in all, with it’s good and bad, it’s over... and we’re celebrating!

We’re celebrating our good moments with our families and friends, our accomplishments, our growth, our maturity, our fun memories... we’re celebrating with the ones we’ve got closer to this year and the new friends and people we gained in our life… we’re celebrating the things we’ll be carrying with us to 2011 because we believe they make us happy!

In the same time, we’re trying to get rid and forget the things that upset and hurt us, the wrong decisions we’ve taken, the bad memories of 2010. We make resolutions (that we may not necessarily follow) in hopes of avoiding these things in 2011.

As I mentioned before, I usually end up having the same resolutions every year, so this time I asked people to send me their resolutions… let me share so of the interesting and common ones:

To learn to forgive and forget…

To never hold grudge…

To stop talking to the fools who makes us feel like crap…

To loose weight…

To quit smoking…

To get over ex-es...

To get back to ex-es…

To find the right partner…

To tell the person you love that you love them…

To get married…

To getting the best wedding dress…

To have the wedding of your dreams…

To get kids…

To learn to let go…

To learn to hold on to people who matter to you…

To meet new people...

To know when it's time to let go of people...

To learn how to draw the line...

To learn to say NO...

To be more flexible...

To learn how to make compromises...

To learn how to deal with anger…

To do better in school…

To grow at work…

To change jobs...

To save more...

To work less...

To work more...

To balance your work and personal life...

To peruse higher levels of education…

To never study again…

To start your own business…

To party less…

To party more...

To read more…

To kill fools on the streets…

To cuss the fools on the street less…

To try and make Egypt better…

To get the hell outta here…

To show your family you care about them more…

To always be there for your parents…

To get over the past and move forward...

To get rid of bad habits…

To never change for anyone…

To pray more…

To believe that God does what’s best for you…

To the believe that the best is yet to come…

To cry less…

To laugh more…

To be less depressed…

To never give up or quit…

To take life more seriously...

To take life less seriously...

To have inner peace…

To make better use of time...

To learn to enjoy life…

SO… these are the resolutions I got, surprisingly a lot of people share the same ones and we donno! I think it's easy to guess which ones belong to males and which ones belong to females (as usual, lol)... some are fun, some are serious, some contradict each other and some complete each other...

And whether we manage achieve these resolutions or not... if you think about it, these are things we believe would make us happy, the things that would make us feel better about our life... the things we'd like to change.

Anyhow… 

I wish you all (and myself) a very happy 2011… full of all the stuff that makes us happy, smile and worry free, hopefully less of the stuff that upset us.

Hoping dreams come true, hoping things get better and believing that the best is yet to come. Believing deep down that if you really ask God to make 2011 better for you and to let it go according to His plans rather than yours… it’ll be an amazing year!

Have yourself an amazing evening, have fun and create memories that will last a lifetime… and we’ll be talking again in 2011.

Happy New Year!

My Gut Feelings…

Honestly, I’m pretty pissed off at my gut feelings…

Lately, my gut feelings have been crashing me right through a freaking wall! I used to trust my instincts perfectly well before and they have never let me down… but lately… I’m honestly disappointed and pissed of with them…

And I have no clue why this is valid or worthy of sharing with people, but that’s the point, this place is for me to trash talk myself and get out whatever is bothering me and feel good about it… So I’m sort of exercising my legal right!

My gut feelings told me to take certain decisions and they all turned out to be a massive flop…

Decisions that are making me feel bad...

Decision that I regret (the feeling I hate the most)...

Decisions that were really stupid…

Decisions that made me go back to things that I should have never gone back to…

My gut feelings even told me some people were better than I thought, and I trusted them, and that too didn’t turn out too well...

My gut feelings were 100% sure things would go well and turn out as planned and they haven’t and now I’m feeling like crap about it!

I miss my old gut feelings that were perfectly accurate and reliable… they never deceived me or let me down… before everyone would tell me something and my gut feelings would tell me another and it would always turn out right! I really miss that!

But ENOUGH… I’ve decided I won’t be relying much on them…

I’ll use my gut feelings for things like which outfit looks nicer, which chocolate looks tastier… but anything other than that, anything more important, anything with further implications on my life… I’m really not depending on them anymore!

First New Year’s Resolution: Less Gut Feelings, More Brains!

Heh!

P.S. E-mail me your New Year Resolutions at mado.mekhail@gmail.com for my next post! Should be fun...
