...and somethings you can't help but notice nonetheless.

It's like an unwanted update about your ex from a well-meaning person --you have no choice but to listen.

It's like looking at that one dress you know you'd look good in but won't have somewhere to wear it to.

It's stacking a bunch of boxes of good stilettos when you're the sneakers-and-jeans kind of girl.

So what's the use actually of putting up your new year's resolution? I can tell you one reason: it's a reminder of a lot of resolutions that have gone by unnoticed. They got shelved reluctantly as "things you can do without" plainly because you choose not to.

As what a dear person told me, in the end, it still boils down to how you want your day to go: have it ruined because it didn't start right or get spontaneous and have fun anyway. This, coming from a control freak? Yeah. I learned to loosened things up a bit... no use going around town to put things where they ought to be, if those things got minds of their own.

Have a happy new year everyone! :-D
