2013 - the best of the year that is almost over

2013 has certainly been an interesting year, full of twists and turns, upside downs, insides out, back to fronts and everything in between.

Rather than spend hours over-analysing the year in gory detail, then vomiting that information onto this blog post, I've decided to celebrate the good stuff that came with 2013.  Here goes.
  • I had a fabulous adventure holiday all over Malaysia and Singapore, riding cable cars, observation wheels, roller coasters, planes, trains, buses and taxis.
  • I re-discovered yoga, this time falling in love with it (and not in hate with it). 
  • I celebrated the gym's first birthday in grand style and having given up so much sweat and so many tears in the process of surviving and thriving during the first year, I gave up some blood in the form of getting a tattoo to celebrate. 
  • I got a tattoo to celebrate the life of my beloved Uncle Aldo, who passed away in 2002.
  • I fit into size small pants at Lorna Jane and size 8 pants at Lululemon.
  • I completed my Certification as an NLP Practitioner
  • I will have completed and submitted my Certified Professional Coach, Certified LIfe Coach and Certified Wellness Coach coursework and exams for conferral of these qualifications by 7pm New Year's Eve.
  • I discovered I love and adore Langkawi and think Kuching is cute. 
  • I didn't fall in love with Penang, Johor needs another visit, Singapore did my head in, Ipoh also needs more exploration and I've finally made peace with and learnt to like KL for what it is - total overload cray cray on a satay skewer.
  • I grew a spine and a set of lady balls and I'm not afraid to use them or stick up for myself.
  • I stuck up for myself and triumphed in the process. 
  • I decided that enough is enough with some people - I will not be pushed around or treated like dirt anymore, by anyone. 
I've spent most of today setting and writing my sankalpa (yogic resolutions, as they are officially known, but I prefer to call them intentions) for 2014.

I'll get to those on Wednesday night, but for now, let's just say that intentions bend and flow, while resolutions can break.
