one day remains.
hey,
I just thought of the title randomly off the top of my head, and I realised its rather apt - given today is the last day of the year. okay, so 'slightly-less-than-one day remains' would've been more suitable, but more or less la huh.
so any thoughts on this year, you may ask.
(and "no", I may answer, but I won't, since I do have some thoughts.)
well, it may have passed by in a flash, but it was eventful nonetheless. from getting used to being in the same school as someone, to Judo Nationals, to taking S papers, to Baybeats, to watching London getting bombed, to watching Bush getting bombed, to get an F for my NE, to doing pullups, to making new friends, to losing some, to falling in love with Willy Wonka, to tons of heartache, to awkward situations, to Vicky's spliting pants, to broken door handles and glass panes, to BAY camp, to A levels, to leaving much behind.
oh boy,
I'll try not to get sentimental.
the year has been fun, painful, lonely, wild, humbling, new, fulfilling, and irreplaceable.
I've learnt about friendships, how they hurt and how to treasure them. I've learnt about achieving goals, when to train hard and why. I've learnt about Radioactivity, and still know nothing about it. I've learnt about life, and how it isn't as sweet as I believed. I've learnt about love, and how easily I lose it. I've learnt about CJ, how it isn't as bad as it seems and yet it is. I've learnt about God, and am grateful each day. I've learnt about myself, and still am.
I guess this is where I step in and declare to do better next year. well, I don't. but I do have some resolutions anyway, and hopefully (as always) they will be kept.
1] put in my best effort in applying for scholarships/courses.
2] hang out w bruddy more.
3] take either tennis/singing lessons.
4] keep in touch w CJ friends.
5] get abs.
6] be nicer to my sister.
7] stop stepping on Huishan's feet.
there :)
rather nice and tidy list.
perfectly do-able!
sounds good sounds good.
as you may have noticed,
there is nothing whatsoever about guys there. I'm taking a neutral stand. in other words, at the moment, I really don't care.
woot.
for the coming year,
I just pray for the seemingly impossible - world peace.
hah!
for once, beauty queens may have hit the nail on the head. unfortunately, no matter how many times it's been hit, this particular nail doesn't seem to be budging.
but so much
for criticisms and analogies.
Happy New Year's Eve,
and see you again -
in
2006.
