My - very personal - 2019 Christmas List
10 thoughts that depict my personal-life realizations, which hopefully help you gain clarity for this up-coming decade.
(This won’t be my 2019 recap post, that will be up in a week!)
1. A stint into the world of hookup culture shows you all the interesting (and sometimes great) things about intimacy
2. Friends are there to keep you sane, and not make your decisions for you
3. Getting caught in a cycle of pretending to be someone you are not with somebody else, only to back track at the last minute, leaving both parties feeling empty and shattered with regret; it’s a cycle that can and will be broken
4. That being said… Stepping out of your comfort zone helps you learn a lot about yourself (in every way imaginable, if you know what I mean)
5. Love is relative
6. The question “why?” can never truly be answered
7. Recognizing that we are implicit to only sharing the perfect parts of our lives online is one step, but actually sharing the no-so-good parts should not be stigmatized as “over-sharing” or being “too emotional”, it should be just as normal as showing the fun stuff we do on a day-to-day basis
8. The transition from Uni to the real world scares me from all aspects
9. In this next decade, I will finally move out and live on my own
10. And finally, continuing to surround myself with people who genuinely care about me is the purest accomplishment I’ve achieved in my short-lived adult-hood (and if you are set to receive a little holiday surprise in your mailbox soon, from yours truly, then let me re-iterate that you make me smile no matter how hard my days can get, and for that I am lucky to have you in my life <3 )
