Monday, December 31, 2007

I know I haven't been blogged for a really long time and a friend just told me that it is a pity not to continue blogging. Alright, so that kinda spurred me on to type something. Just a little update.

It's one more day to the New Year's. Any new year's resolutions? Frankly speaking, I've given up trying to make some and actually complete them. However, 2007 has been a rather memorable one for me. Many things happened ...

Friendships
Strengthen existing friendships, repaired old ones (Amanda) and made new ones through pace (Joesph, Liting, Sophia, Benny) and i.Live (Zul, Candice, KK). I've lost some friends too.. none of them worth mentioning of course.
The last 3 months have been especially hard for me. I lost 3 friends (including one bf) but everyone agreed that these people aren't worth it at all. I'm glad things worked out the way they did. Life is all about making decisions and I've made one that makes me happy.

School
School has been one fuck of a roller-coaster ride for me. Had to balance work load with i.Live and other promised commitments. However, it has lead to be new experiences like emceeing for the first time for a big, semi-formal event, panelist for a youth talk with the CEO of MDA etc. Not forgetting the SIFE competition (we were awarded Spirit of SIFE), my community service trip to Laos and Poly-forum. I have some more activities coming up in the next month... can't wait.

Poly forum had left me with both good and bad memories. It was then that I've discovered what is important in a relationship. Also, i've made new friends and got to know the existing ones better (Randall and Josias). Also, because I got to know them better, I've been proven wrong and my perceptions of my friendships with them have changed..for the better.

I daresay I'm very proud of my achievements in schools. Albeit, things are a little rushed and stressed sometimes but I've enjoyed myself thoroughly.

If there's one thing I could improve on, it would be my other life.. I have always wanted to pick up a new skill. Since driving is out of the question now (I don't want to spend my parent's money), I was thinking of either joining ballroom dancing or learning French.

Anyhow, 2007 has been a rather eventful year for me. Many high and low points, some incidents I rather forget, the others I keep close to heart forever. As for the upcoming 2008, I pray for the determination, perseverance and discernment.

Alright, come to me, 2008! I'm ready for you!

(PS - I was thinking of joining the air force and being a air stewardess. The pay's attractive plus I can to travel around the world. If I were to join, I'll go after I've completed my diploma. Would probably be in the company for a year or 2 before coming back to work. What Say You?)

It's all about Me.
