Customary Year-End GoodBye

A fortnight ago, I had this itch to write a year-end roundup. I have some pretty significant life events to report this year.

Thankfully, I am over the itch. 

I had so much expectation from this year. I was so excited for 2016. 

What has actually happened is a mudslide, and yes, here are a few positives from this year (in no particular order):


  • I cleared an exam this July (results came in November), which is a life time qualification, and essentially used as an eligibility basis.
  • I got a sim card that allowed me free calling for over two months, and free internet, free text messages.
  • I participated in a two day conference in a different city in November, which was a good trip for me. I enjoyed the conference, and went sightseeing. It was also very refreshing. The paper I presented there, was one I hadn't hope to complete in time, and yet I pushed myself to go write it, and submit it, so being able to get through to the conference was an achievement.
  • M turned 2 this year.
