It was a wild and frantic finish to the year 2013. From
extra-curricular organization activities, final examinations of a 24-unit term,
up to the completion of my OJT hours on the very last day before I leave for vacation;
it was without a doubt the most grueling stretch of my existence.
Then the holiday
season came and went like a whirlwind. Sure I was able to spend my break with
the people that matter the most, but it would’ve been icing on the cake if
those days lasted a little (LOT) longer.
With these people, it's always a good time.
And here we are already a week into the new year, and for a
long while, I’ve been really anxious as the calendar turns to 2014. With
numerous big occasions set to happen, this was going to be an epic year. But
nothing got me all worked up than this one word- UNCERTAINTY.
There are a lot of things, questions that are going on in my
mind (some of my friends have been complaining as to why I over think situations
a lot), like what happens after graduation? Or what career path I’m going to
choose? Whether I make it past the boards? Will I be able to see and spend
quality time with my good friends again? What are the changes that are set to
loom? Etc.
Because the truth is, I’ve never faced uncertainty head-on
before. We are used to decisions that are pre-made or the stuff that just goes
naturally. But those were the kindergarten, teens and early college days.
The thing is, uncertainty is such a scary phenomenon, yet it
is the true beauty of life itself. What I will be expecting for 2014? Not much.
Because when you are looking forward to the big picture, the fear of things
that are yet to happen will just affect and haunt you. Rather, we should just
take each single day one at a time and enjoy them the way it should be.
