Self-help.

I've been reading a lot of self-help articles the past few days. Aside from the ample of time I have at work (only because it's lean season), this is really one of the things I am fond of. I know this year has been awful and these articles I have chanced upon make me look forward to a better 2014 in three months time. I am freakin' excited to end this year. Excited is actually an understatement.

Well, cliche as it may sound but this year has taught me some of the greatest lessons in my 20-something life. I won't go through it one by one, I don't want to sound like one of those self-help stories I've read in the past weeks and if I mention those lessons here, I would have to cite some unfortunate situations that happened to me, which I'm avoiding only because I would like to forget the pain or whatever negative feeling attached to those events. 

But I have bookmarked some of the articles that made a mark in my heart. And just in case I  get through the same kind of pain or joy or if my issues now will still remain unsettled in the next five years or more (but I really pray that it won't), I can easily go back to reading these ones.
