And how was your year?

Ladies and gentlemen… as you can see above, Ms Sandra Bullock. One of the most beloved actresses of her generation. Errr… no, I didn’t mean to make this post as a way to worship her (Ms Kate Winslet, you are still my rock!). But read the lines on that Entertainment Weekly’s cover.

Sandra

Seriously

Two Huge Hits, $300 Million.

Oscar Buzz for THE BLIND SIDE.

And how was your year?

Yes, read the last line. And how was your year? Well… apparently, Ms Bullock manages to do many amazing stuffs throughout 2009, in movies. Two successfull box office movies, The Proposal and The Blind Side, (What? All About Steve? What is that?). Not only that, her performance on The Blind Side got the critics buzzing over her first ever Oscar’s nomination. It’s definetely an astonishing year for Ms Bullock.

But then… it got me thinking. And how was my year?

Hmmm… how was my year? Well… I guess it won’t be as extravagant as Ms Bullock’s year, but hell yeah… I’m doing pretty fine this year. I mean, I’m still holding on to my career as a journalist. And when I wrote “holding on” I really mean it as… well… holding on. The job is one of the most toughest jobs in the world.

Have you watched The Devil Wears Prada? Seriously, the movie’s description of how Andy Sachs facing her boss is just the exact same how I’m dealing with mine now. I’M NOT JOKING!!! But then… just like Andy Sachs, I believe that this is also the beginning of my journey of something big in my future. And I believe that if I can make it here, I really can make it anywhere. And alhamdulillah, I can safely say that I’m doing really well at the office that I got a little promotion few times.

The non-career? Hmmm… I don’t know. I don’t have any exciting thing to talk about my ehmmm… love life. Hey… I met some of my online friends this year. They’re pretty nice. And then… well… my family. No matter what, I always consider having a family like mine is an achievement.

So yahhh… that’s all. Pretty boring, I guess. I dunno but I’m so looking forward to 2010. I’ve got myself some life plans and really looking forward whether I can make it or not. Mehhh… at least I will still have my family…

By the way, how was your year?
