On the Cusp of a Brand New Year

2013 wasn't really my year to be honest.

Oh, the first half was generally pretty good. I got a top grade for my Honours degree, graduated, then did some travelling in Europe and Asia. So far so good.
 
However, the second half gave me grief on several occasions. Let's just say there were difficult personal struggles that bogged me down: some relationship issues, the passing of a loved one and the so far unsuccessful job hunt. It wasn't entirely bad, though, because what doesn't kill you really does make you stronger. I feel like I've grown so much tougher, wiser and sure of myself by the end of this year.

So, I look forward to the new beginnings 2014 will bring. I was down but I'm certainly not out and I'm raring to go. If 2013 was the year I struggled, then 2014 shall be the year I rise above those struggles and soar. How am I so sure of this? 2014 is the Year of the Horse, and the Horse is my Zodiac sign. 2014 is MY year :)

Watch me now.

Peace out, everyone, and I wish you all a very happy new year!
