The end of my misery..

I finally can sit and relax..the end of a chapter in life..a miserable experience..and slowly deleting from my memory..but lesson learnt..and it makes me wiser..to face better things to come my way..

Thank you to all my frens for ur help and support..i appreciate all the efforts made and helping me out..cheering me up when i felt so low..and trying to ensure that i did the best thing..for my own happiness..and to end the misery faced all these while..and learning that there's so many types of people out there..and teaching me to be appreciative, and also dealing with difficult mentally unstable individual..and agreeing that my passion & love will be more appreciated & worth while for others..someday.
