Somebody, somebody. ♪

Huh. It's only been a month and a half since I last blogged. Felt longer than that.

Would it make sense if I said that I feel like a whole different person? Been introspecting quite a bit. Discovering newfound dreams. Getting closer to new friends. Starting to really and truly believe in myself and I'm growing more and more confident each day. I'm not quite the person I was in secondary school. I'm not sure if that would occur to my friends or family. But I feel it somehow.

If it's even possible, I think I've matured a whole lot as well. Imagine that. haha!

Ahh.. you know, experiences help you grow. Now that I've gotten over some past hurts, there's still the remnant of bitterness.. The dreaded fact that reality did not match up to my perception just leaves me.. resentful and morose. A 9 year old chip on my shoulder.

Well that's that.

At this point, I've got an entire loooong road in front of me, a wide expanse of horizon just begging to be explored. The world's my oyster, it's in the palm of my hand.. if I just keep faith and focus on my goals.. and not let certain drawbacks deter me. I'll just have to put aside some voids that can only be filled later on.

Step by step, Mel. Step by step.

Sometimes I wonder though, as I'm moving along, and life passes by, what about the ones I'm leaving behind? And what if I miss good stuff along the way because my attention is solely on what's ahead?

Am I the only one who's all set on the future and am I the one who's going too fast or do others just find it easier to be contented than me? Which brings up yet another question, am I being ambitious because I really really want to achieve dreams that seem untouchable? Or is it because I secretly want to make up for things that I'm missing out on?
