Life is Beautiful!

2011 has been fairly a good year for me. The year started with Fa and I hanging out at a New Year's party. She always brings excitement in my life and we both felt the comfort that we are not alone and we had each other. So many big milestones have been met this year. I bought a place! Our annual dance recital at Long Center (what more can I ask) turned out great! The big news is I turned 30! I thought it was just a number, but no, I had moments where I wasn't comfortable. But I turned out fine and I’m still fit and maybe little smarter than before:-) I was glad to hear my dance teacher (Anu akka) turned 50 and her dad turned 80. It means this is a perfect year to turn something!J

I had one heart break very early in the year but it feels so unimportant now. I think what keeps me going is that life is beautiful in many ways. I made some great friends this year (Dora and Stewie), some friendships gotten stronger (Garfield). We had a great Halloween party! I explored Japan. India trip was also fruitful. I visited the Sankuratri Foundation (if you are curious, Wiki this) and met the man behind it. I'm posting some pictures from the school. Even career wise, I could say I advanced a little. I got my promotion which was long due and now they are getting me up to doing more complex designs. Even if the company is not in the best shape and my team hasn’t been the best place, I believe I have an opportunity here to grow and I hope the first half of 2012 will teach me something.

Finally I want to thank my three friends here who made this journey (2011) fun and exciting. The holiday season is the right time to reflect back on old memories and know how much we have grown, wiser and hopefully healthier and stronger. As Green Lantern concludes, fear is not a bad thing, you just have to stand up to it. One thing is very clear to me in life now, focus on the right things, that includes moving on from the past and making the right choices, you’ll be given what you want. As Alchemist says, the universe is conspiring to help you get there, you just have to believe in itJ (thanks Garfield).

Yours Truly,
Ender
