Leave the new year’s resolutions for what they are, you won’t be able to lose that weight, the handsome man you would fall for on Tinder won’t have that much hair as he shows on his picture, you won’t find the job of your dreams and after one week of intense jogging you will find your couch much more interesting than the training program you downloaded on your smartphone.
Much nicer is to
reflect a bit on the good things that have happened in the past year!
Personal 2015 moments to
remember
Family
Brother: “So you
donated a 100 dollars to the Virunga National Park and send us a post card that
that was our Christmas gift for this year? Where did I deserve a sister like
that! But it’s ok, the gorillas need it more”.
Job
Boss : “Veerle,
tu as tutoyé le Ministre!”
Love
Y: “I don’t care if I need to come to Ethiopia
to see you. I’ll be there in 2 days,
might need to bribe someone to get the visa sorted out though”
Friends
The Ladies: “Even
after months of not seeing you, it seems like it was last week. Give me a hug
you Ebola-fighter!”
The Boys: “Who are you
again? Doesn’t matter, let’s have some beers and an excessive amount of rosé
and discuss life, love and world problems.”
Honest Mistake
Veerle: “did they
really choose ‘I wanna be your dog’ by The Stooges as their weddings’ first
dance? That is so cool!”
Family: "No V, it's ‘I wanna be adored' by the Stone Roses!"
V: "Oh ok, ...still very cool!"
Seriously!
