I am here again. This year my resolution will be ten of them , more details please further the reading.
Just warmly welcome the New Year 2018 and everything is already speeding by like a flash of lightning. Here’s just a quick hello and a short post from me to share about what I have looked forward for the coming year.
My review throughout the whole year , please check on 2017 , A MUST CHANGE IN 2018. We are coming to a new year here , year go by , we should have at least changes and ambitious. Nah , after flying back from Singapore and China , my yearning keeps popping out on my mind.
I am not smart , but I would like to acquiring knowledge from now on. Learn to be better , learn to struggle more and learn to be yourself.
#1 Transformation
I have been told that , I should at least live a healthy lifestyle. I start my journey from 2014 to 2017 , back then I am successfully lost my weight from 121 KG to 96 KG. Because of bad company of negative friends , my weight turns back as 108 KG ( 12/12/2018 ) . I feel stress at the time , but gradually I'm finding back my confident now , willpower and objectives.
Failures , mistakes and bad times has been shaped me to who I am today. We can't change the past , but we can change our future.
New Objectives : lost weight 25 KG this year. * smile *
Strengthen your willpower , don't let others people judge upon you. Break those barriers and limitation , you are challenging with yourself , not others. Struggle hard , fighting for yourself.
I eat less nowadays but within my own basal metabolism. Realise that eat greasy food makes me tremendously disgusting and uncomfortable , I can't even sleep well at night. I have quit artificial sugar more than one month , processed food and manufacturer food almost more than years. My mum wants us to have a healthy lifestyle so I have formed a good habit that I only eat original food which are meat and vegetables.
#2 Learn to live alone and learn to endure loneliness
Starting from this week , I will be alone in that originally stay on that hostel. Everything will be alone , my diploma friends have been dispersed , undoubtedly I am the one who abandon by them. But it doesn't matter , new things come after old things lose.
Endure loneliness ain't a easy things. There are someone is accompanied before , now it's gone. I haven't been alone , and alone is lonely. ( This is my initial feeling. ) I can't express how I feel , I know making a new friends and it takes time to build. Maybe the bridge has fallen down without a strong base.
After traveling , I change my mind , refresh myself and put in myself in a good way. Eventually I am not feeling lonely despite that there is nothing to do at all. I am developing a new habit so this year I shall know how to draft the patterns , craft my very first costume.
#3 DRAFTING and SEWING
Obviously , drafting and sewing ain't an easy things to study. Patience and Concentration are required. Every drafting must not make a mistake , or else whole costume might be spoil because of that tiny centimeter.
Sewing actually is not my very first interest , when I see those cosplayers are amazingly tailor the whole costume , they are self - study and self - learning. And this really inspiring me since I also want to create a whole costume for my original character.
Hope that this year I can make something out instead of talking nonsense and making nothing.
#4 Friendships
Friends are golden. A true friendship is one where you can trust completely, love unconditionally without bearings or any limitations and just be entirely yourself.
I’ve also learnt that you can’t force friendships. It is ephemeral and magical. Flip through 2017 reflection , my friends abandon me and I don't know the reason. I hope that please don't use busy as your excuses , I am tiring of these things nowadays , it is better I don't bother it , better I enrich myself , acquaint new friends.
Everyone hold threshold , I had it too. Can't you squeeze time for me ? Quality over quantity , I hope that let be nice and sincere to each other.
The friends gathering meeting are over too. They are flying back to their own places and study busily on their upcoming assignment and project. No more gathering this year , Chinese New Year probably hang out with friends.
#5 Improve English Language and Japanese Language as well as my Mandarin Language
April 2017 , I started my very first Japanese language which located beside my college. My father founded this course while he was having his meal. It is my favourite language since 7 year-old. Back then I am allured by different genre of anime. I watch a lot of anime and learn a lot of phrases. Lately I finish watch all of the downloaded anime in my laptop and now I have free out 160 GB of the storage. Now I should watch Japanese Dramas to improve my listening skills.
I will keep ongoing what I'm writing now , improve everything little by little. I will get rid of " satisfied state of mind " , keep improving until the stages of capable.
Everyone is asking me , how I improve my ENGLISH. Honesty tell you , if you aren't in the English community environment , you won't easily improve faster as you thoughts. You have to put effort on it in order to make your language good and formal. I love to watch anime , my elder brother forces me to watch in English subtitles , initially you might feel difficulty since you haven't used to. Time to time , you find the word that you don't know , jot down every meaning you have found , memorise all those things so that when next time the same word is used , you know the meaning.
Learning a language is not easy as you think , a word covers with countless meaning.
#6 Struggle hard in every new aspect
Weight loss is nothing new to me , but stuck on stagnant. I haven't found my fighting will on 2017 , but I am going to break through the limitation. For my own sake , not for other people.
Try to explore more especially traveling. I often ask my friends who can company me but none of them is answering YES. It makes me sad and my brother tells me that : " Please go yourself , your friends are unreliable. Learn to go somewhere by your own , if you do the homework properly , you won't get lost and stray on somewhere. "
Novel. I like to express myself in other ways , I like imagine myself as a character or a new role. How am I going to face and solve it. Hopefully I can finish one of my book this year. After returning from college , I will shut myself up in my room and keep writing lol.
Apparently most of the books of the story lines are the same. Same until I can imagine the last chapter of the book. They put in a lot of despise and horrid content inside for example we can read it obviously which is affair of other women and men , conceal the truth , adultery , frame someone , slander other people and so on. Eventually I have fed up. Literally I just can't accept the story line because I have read more than thousand books.
I choose to create my own book rather than reading other books. ( but I read recommended book too )
I am trying to read light novel which I have abandoned for a long time ago. Is time to be nerd again and bring those amazing content that brighten up your day.
#7 Create new content and good quality post for my blog
There is competition, there will be the progress. I always hope that I could meet the same value of me , but it's a bit difficult.
I will try to express good quality of articles , inspiration and motivation to everyone. Initially the purpose of creating the blog is for me to document every single simple memory. When my pages views keep growing up , I decide to write more inspiration and motivate for everyone.
I am not good at English ( I am not English - educated ) , but I hope that I can express my feeling well , use appropriate words and positive thoughts to encourage every readers who read my blog.
Seeing those Chinese - educated people are also inspiring , they learn and improve Chinese but they manage to get a band 5 or band 6 of English. There is a very obvious instance around me. I would like to read more books and novel , articles and blog. Read more , learn more.
#8 Improve my skills of making cakes and ice cream
I love to make cakes and ice cream. I discover it while I find some simple recipe from Twitter and Instagram , just a few materials and ingredients , you could make an easy and save time food for tea time or meal.
I personally love Japanese Food , pancakes , cakes , crepe cakes , ice creams , cutie food and so on. This year I am trying to improve the skills despite that I have failed many more times. Even though it is too tragic to look at since the outcome is appalling lol. By the way , I would make it better this year.
#9 Continue what are you passionate about of the hobbies and interests
When you put in your soul and heart into , you feel refresh and concentrate about the things. When you want to have a deeper understandings , absolutely put more effort and hardworking into the things you passionate about. Focused people would never seek for the shortcuts. Because when you get things done on extreme , that's a shortcut.
Facing the mentality of one thing, it can directly affects the efficiency and quality of the completion of the matter. Persistent and hardworking are important too. Doing our hobbies and interests might includes huge cost and it is not only about the money , also time, energy and resources. I have lesson and course on diploma , degree , Japanese language and sewing. Not only that , I have to write my favourite novel , articles and blogging , I also have to workout , spend time for study and watching anime and dramas to improve my listening skills. Full list of hobbies and interests and not enough hours in the day to enjoy them all. I have to balance all of my hobbies and interests so that I won't neglect my own study too.
Make your hobbies and interest into strength , enrich yourself you with different type of knowledge too.I hope to be able to better manage my time with a good balance of hobbies & interests and my study.
#10 More Hardworking than 2017
If you have read my precious post , I have been told that I am a lazy person and not being hardworking for my everything including my study , lifestyle and workout session. Approximately two months ago , I am traumatized and suffocate with everyone except my family members. Thank for them , I grow up stronger.
I always inspire by @LIANNWONG , an instagrammer.
You don't have anyone else but yourself. You suffer the pain yourself. You achieve things yourself , and there is no greater motivating force than yourself. No one but yourself. Everyone's values is very different from me , there is no one can pursue the dream with me. I only can sustain with my own effort , loneliness and hard work.
If you aren't in a positive environment , then create it. Create the change you want to be. Yes , this year I would like to change myself to a better version , become more happy and bring more smile to everyone , think positively and inspire more people. Associate yourself with inspiring people ? Maybe this will not happen in my recent situation. Maybe cosplayer and dreamer.
I read good quotes nowadays despite that only a few but it brings greater power and energetic to me. Listen to happy songs , I like three types of sing but mostly are Anime Japanese Song. Please recommend others nice song to me.
Motivate yourself is the toughest things to challenge. I believe that at the end of the day , it's up to you to break the barriers to realise that you are capable.
I have a lot of leisure time , not like everyone else , busy with their study , assignment and project. As my friend mentions to me ( maybe degree no ) , the way of study of everybody is different from everyone. From now on , I would like to make time for the things that I am passionate about.
No ones but you knows how hard you work , how many hours you put in behind the scenes , all those sweat and tears , so rely on yourself for approval , not the outside. I am going to do my best in my upcoming resolution. No matter how much it needs , I will dedicate for it.
There is absolutely no substitute for hard work and there are no shortcuts to success. Be discipline of everything from now on , there is no way for you to lose weight faster unless you want a short time result. I want to keep fit forever and not for a while.
For everything that you put your heart and soul into , there will be sacrifices that have to be made. Don't make a lot of excuses on what you want it. Stop making excuses , because if something or someone is really important to you , you will make time for it. I am going to make time for everything I love and passionate about. Those are my priories.
New quote for this year : For everything I do , I do my best.
I still very far away from what I want to be. If others don't like it , let them be.
Life isn't about pleasing everybody.
I struggle , I fight , I rise and I will never give up. I have no time for your negative bullshit. For 2018 , I will not make any criticize and any comparisons for myself. BE YOURSELF AND LOVE YOURSELF. We are not born and designed to be perfect.
2018 , be the best version of YOU.
With Love ,
Judith Khoo
