The time has come. It is December 31 and I have been through a lot this year.
Allow me to share the most important moments of the year - that you already know about, and some that I don't think you know.
First of all, one year ago today me and Karolina went to Winter Wonderland. Today, we are both boarding flights, separately. Secondly, I am a whole lot different than I was last year.
Earlier tonight, Karolina and I were talking about what we went through this year:
The list kept on going as we kept on remembering more and more.
I glued the cinema tickets we had to it and wrote down little things about those days. I have some tickets missing as I haven't found them in the midst of my things but I know that I will find them someday. I need to find them. This little book is literally a collection of what we've been through. I would say I have been through but most of it was with Karolina.
Movie dates, trips to London, a story written on a receipt paper from JD. I will miss what I've been through this year. All the people I've met made an impact in my life and I can certainly say that I am glad I've met every single one of them. Even the ones that I no longer speak to. They will always intrigue me, as I do not know what has happened to them. Yes, this one is to the boys I no longer speak to. No, I do not wish to speak to them again. I just want closure, to know what happened, to understand.
Well, that has got to be working at JD Sports. I have met such incredible people that I miss oh so dearly. I have met some of the sweetest people in that tiny shop at Luton Airport. They have forever changed my life. Ryan, Tomas, Jaydan... Thank you for making the beginning of my JD Sports journey so interesting. Now that you are gone... Now that I am gone... I can see that you were the best part of the job. Along side Fahima and Brandon who literally became family rather than friends. I saw Brandon yesterday and I haven't been so happy in a while. Seeing him literally made me as happy as I will be when I see my brother today.
JD gave me so much. Knowledge, friendship, family, love. I have a special place for every one of them, yes. Even Demogorgon and Snake have got their place. They are buried deep down in what my mind believes to be Purgatory and will pay for all their sins.
Jack's got a special place as well. One much different than those two. I am so happy that all my choices brought me to Monday 4am sitting down in front of the toilets to go to Goods In. I am happy I was listening to Nick Jonas singing Find You and that I decided to be nice even though it was early and I didn't know him. Things could have gone a whole other way, but I'm glad we are here. I am glad I took his number in case 'someone comes here for us'.
But more than that, I am grateful JD Sports provided me with the chance of leaving McDonalds. I would have cried - and most likely killed someone - if I had stayed in that hellhole.
I have not done as much as I wish I had. I regret all the decisions I've done that lead to me being here right now, with 11 days to write a 3k word Essay and 9 to write a 6k word story. But at the same time, I don't really regret it. I am quite happy that I know what I am doing and that I have a plan. I just need to follow said plan and I should be alright. Or, at the very least, I really hope I will be alright.
I know for a fact that I will be able to finish all my work on time. I will be more than alright with the Essay, what I am afraid of is the Appendix for this Essay. I have not done as much work for it as I was hoping for. I will be working on myself next year. That is a fact. That I will make sure of. At least I have started both of them and I am not so far behind. Well, I am not on top of it, but I far from not having started it. At least that.
Great question, thank you for asking it. I was thinking something along the lines of looking for an internship - this is the topic of this Essay I was telling you about - at a publishing company. I will be looking into it, working on my stories on the side, as I also work part time at the Airport. Hopefully my full pass will be done soon. One can only pray.
I will definitely be creating that side blog with short stories soon! So stay tuned, I am almost sure next post will be about that!
Unlike some people keep telling me, I do not have a drinking problem. I drink every once in a while, maybe a little bit too much at a time, but hey I am still alive. I have never been in an alcohol coma and I can still drink Vodka - not going to say the same about Tequila but I blame its strong flavour. I do not like Tequila.
I made this year without half twelve incidents, however, I broke my laptop. That's something to work on next year. Hope I won't have this problem again, but at least this time I have insurance. Twice a year I am able to break my laptop due to liquid damage and still have it replaced. Love this.
I am grateful for Karolina, Beatriz and Rita. I am grateful for Marta and Carolina. I am grateful for Narcis, Romario and even Alex, at times. I have never mentioned so many names in this, but I felt like today was the day. I am grateful for Jack, Fahima and Brandon. I am grateful for everything.
Thank you 2017 for hitting me in the face so many times, I really needed that slap at that time. I am who I am now because of it.
Bring on 2018!

- The boys that came and went;
- The jobs that we left;
- The people we no longer speak to;
- The money we spent;
- The movies we watched;
- The time we wasted;
The list kept on going as we kept on remembering more and more.
The best part of this year was this little book I kept.

Plans for drinking habit?
I made this year without half twelve incidents, however, I broke my laptop. That's something to work on next year. Hope I won't have this problem again, but at least this time I have insurance. Twice a year I am able to break my laptop due to liquid damage and still have it replaced. Love this.
Lastly,
I am hoping that next year will be bloody brilliant. I am hoping to achieve a lot, to go through a lot of experiences and even more I hope I will become a better person as I meet more people, become better acquainted to others and also strengthen the friendship I already have with others.I am grateful for Karolina, Beatriz and Rita. I am grateful for Marta and Carolina. I am grateful for Narcis, Romario and even Alex, at times. I have never mentioned so many names in this, but I felt like today was the day.
