I Keep a Gratitude Journal
Attended a classmate s wedding banquet last night. Amazed at how well planned it was, how far my classmate has matured and the speeches were good. Felt the positive energy from her and it was inspiring.
In this new year I want to get rid of all the negative/ cynical thoughts that prevent me from advancing, and use the energy to focus on the things I want to and need to do for a better, happier life, both present and future.
Btw, I met my former boss in the banquet, an friendly, cheerful, intelligent lady who retired almost 2 years ago 😀. We agreed to catch up again soon next month.
Another thing worth noting down was that, I was sitting with classmates whom I didn't like before during the banquet, but I no longer had the unpleasant feeling towards them or felt upset hearing what they said. These are people who I truly don't care, whether they are normal people or bitches. And in fact some of them are really normal people, but we are just very unfamiliar with each other. My best friend reminded me that I was there for the bride, not for people sitting at the same table.
Before the banquet I was very worried that I would not dress good enough and got poory remarked and gossiped by the bitches. I took my best friend and my brother's advice to dress smart casual, simple and stylish instead of trying to go for high end formal style. My best friend said that I was not the kind of person interested in spending time, effort and money in fashion; it s not worth it to go to find and buy a new dress just for this occasion unless I find it happy to do so. In the 1st and only wedding banquet of my 2nd school classmate that I joined 6 years ago, I was mocked by 3 bitches whom I considered as my best friend in 2nd school, that I wore not as good as them. They dressed as if it was their wedding, and had their makeup and hairdo done by professional services. When taking photos together, one of them moved a pot plant in front of me to hide me from the camera. I worried about dressing up a lot and seeing people in a lot of occassions like that. But now, I seem to have overcome this problem, or this problem doesn't exist anymore.

In the morning on the same day, I believed I saw a former bandmate of the 1st band I joined with unpleasant ending. The guy looked aged and sick though he s 5 years younger than me, due to self-induced prolonged overnight work and unrestrained poor living habits. I am glad I m no longer with group I don't belong to.
