Good bye, 2017

December 28, 2017

I did a thread on twitter on the my best memories of 2017 and I figured why not do it here too with a little tweak, so here's my 2017's worst memories/things that have happened to me during the course of the year in no particular order. Let's see which one outweighs the other.


  1. I lost my grandfather to cancer
  2. I drifted away from some people
  3. Basically everything that's got to do with dealing with my landlady and our rented house
  4. MARA cut off my allowance 
  5. I still have no clue about my future
  6. I hated myself for the things I couldn't change
  7. I let people project their feelings and expectations onto me
  8. I've lost so much weight I think I'm sick
  9. I cried a lot this year (surprisingly more than 2014)
  10. I wasted so much money on unnecessary things
  11. I'm back to not wanting to talk to people and wallowing in sadness for days sometimes weeks
  12. People I trusted lied to me
  13. Jonghyun's death
  14. I didn't read as much as I used to
  15. I stopped doing the things I liked
  16. I'm in a very long writing slump, I hate everything I write
  17. I didn't go out to see sunsets as much I used to anymore
  18. Toxic people
  19. I drifted away from God
  20. I didn't keep in contact with my parents that often
  21. Growing up
  22. Still haven't learn to talk to people about my problems
  23. Didn't spend as much time with myself
  24. Too busy attending to other people and forgetting to take care of myself
  25. I expected people to love me the way I love them but wow when will you learn Nadiah :')

2017 has been the best and worst year for me and though I am beyond grateful for some things, I wish no one would have to go through half of the things I've been through this year. It's a year of self discovery, filled with hatred and love all the same. But I am thankful for everyone that's been with me in flesh or in memory, you made a difference even just a little. May we all grow into a better version of ourselves in 2018, learning to love not only the people around us but ourselves most importantly.
