Yesyes, Happy new year, pull your ear. (:
Hello 2009, goodbye 2008.
I never actually got used to writing 08. I'm still stuck at like 06.
Anw, everyone's got one of this reflective posts and everyones blogging about how everyone else has them too. HAHA.
Whoevers reading can just save yourself the trouble and click the x above. Dont worry, I wouldnt know. Haha
Anw, so here it goes :D

Well, last year just made me believe firmer in the saying, everything happens for a reason. The end of 07 was horrid and I firmly believed that 08 and 09 were going to turn out to be hell. But, who would have thought that in the end all the pieces would end up falling into place so perfectly and it'll be one the best years thus far. I cannot be more pleased with how the year turned out and given the choice, wouldnt change any aspect of it, even my darned Olevel or prelim results. 2008 made my belief in prayers, wishes, fate, karma and god much much stronger. And i'd like to think it made me wiser in every aspect too. Hah. It certainly brought me closer to my family and made me treasure my friends all the more. Only I would know of the nights I spent missing Cedar and reminising about it. It'll always be kept close to my heart and i'm happy moving on to greener or not so green pasteurs. (:

This part in Jamie's post made me smile, like really widely. haha
"PAE with a04 was awesome, met so many nice friends I didnt have before. They were different. Altho we were all so different, yet we could have so much fun together, built such strong bonds. Love you guys ok! :) (Love you too, jamieeeee the police) We ruled the orientation games and cheers. Stealing cheers from every other houses, having the OHL to mention our group and doing all the cheers in front of the whole cohort. It was fun. These people never once fail to make me smile. Even a simple sms from some of them makes me smile :) You guys are all so nice la, can't stand it. To be honest you guys are prolly the best group of friends I've made & i can ever make.AND you guys changed me, to be more sociable and friendly :) REEALLY love ALL 8 of you! see you all again soon ok!"
I thought I was going to hate PAE but, it ended up as one of the best times this year. Well, jamie says it all actually. In the end, though almost all of us moved on to various places, we'll still meet up often 50 years down the road and do all the silly things we always do right? (:
I love how whatever our pasts were didnt really matter and the only thing that did, was how much we enjoyed each others company. & I thank god for bringing me there tgt with Really and Cage. I loved spending time with the two of them too. Hello really, awesome misses you plenty!
Thankyou Shan, Suria, Jamie, Ji Cheng, Xiang Hui, Sam, Mary, Athalie and vince. :D

Then, very soon came my first day to JJ with xiang hui. Thankgoodness for him cos, honestly I thought I was going to die there alone. I was so so so upset on the first day of school and I really do thank him for tolerating all my whining, crap and being so brotherly. HAHA. Right outside school, at the traffic light, on the first day, we heard the "welcome to JJ, this way please" 'song' and I looked at him and said, "Omg xiang hui, just kill me man." HAHA, how time changes how we see huh. I'm so very grateful for the place that brought all the 7 merry people tgt to form the merry gang. I still cant believe how lucky we are to be in the same class tgt with ken and ws. They become (*sings) what I go to school for and I loved all the little merry things we did. And I do hope that this year would bring us even closer and make us even merrier. Haha. And I think my classmates are pretty nice too. (: And how can I not mention the new sport I learnt right? (though I suck at it) Hah. I love the game, really. And the experience has been very much humbling. Though not my cup of tea, i'm still very grateful for making it into the team. If not for Touch, I would have probably never played a ball game competitively in my entire life, would never have met my zai & wonderful teammates and would never have enough vitamin D to keep me alive till today. Thankgoodness, trng is at 4pm tmr. I still do hate the sun very very very much.

I'm also so very glad that Kathleen and I got to meet often enough through out the year, to catch up on each others lifes. Its always nice knowing theres someone whos always there for you, rain or shine! My Sundays are yours okay. haha :D
Though I never really got to make it for all of the SAAP sessions, I still am grateful for the opportunity created every saturday night to meet yanying, bf, kelly, Jiang, Jesai, jerlyn ... (:
I have such splendid weekends (:
I'm also (okay, i need a thesaurus. Glad, thankful,pleased, elated Joyful? delighted? HAHA) happy that I got catch up with Yanyingggg, Horny, Varru and broom this holiday.
I'm thankful that Peiting, Wynn and I still do meet up once in awhile and our traditional bday celebrations for each other still go on. Eleven years and going strong. We've to meet soon okay again okay! (: Hello exco, though we've only met like thrice this year, I know whatever we went through together and the close bond we had built wouldnt just become a thing of the past cos, only we know how much we still love and think of each other. We'll meet soon okay! (:
Oh, and hello agent silver, I wonder if you'll even read this but anyway, I just hope you're doing fine and enjoying yourself. :D Havent heard from you in awhile! You owe me and email btw. Haha.

Yay, I'm so very blessed to have all these people in my life and I promise to treasure them always. (: I never want to loose or drift away from any of them cos, they make life all the more lovable, live-able and bearable.

BUT, (there must always be a 'but' right? haha) 2008 has also made me bitchier, less patient, more vain, lazier, more materialistic, more kepo and less charitable. D:
This calls for new year resolutions!!

First and foremost, I shall minimize all bitching whatsoever. Talking about someone else, doesnt make you any better right? Right. Anw, i believe in Karma so, I'd better learn to shut up. Haha, okay good.
I shall mug my ass off for the first time in my life, like any other A level student probably will this year cos, I still do want to do Law in Spore and I refuse to let me parents down again.
I will try my best to not get influenced or affected by what others which, I usually do and am. I will not judge anyone from what I hear this year and I shall also be less judgemental. Call me a bimbo again this year, and see if I care man! HAHA, that sentence sounds bitchy and that reminds me of the phrase, "call me a bitch and i'll show you one!" HAHA, okay stop. Moving on.
I'll save myself of all heart ache whatsoever and remain single till the end of this year. Prince Charming has got to wait. HAHA, wth.
I will not argue with my parents rgd curfews or even hate them for a second when they scold me and get all over protective cos, I know its for my own good and its cos they love me. I shall also be nicer sister and actually treat her like a 13 year old. HAHAH.
Okay, last but not least, I'll treasure my belongings (poor missing phone!) and loved once all the more this year, i'll continue playing the violin and swimming often, I shall give my all during trng, donate everytime I see a donation tin, continue wishing at 11.11 and counting stars+ saying my daily thankyous before bedtime. (:
&&& I'll try to stop thinking of could haves, would haves and should haves cos, all we have is now or else, its never.

Okay, i've been at this for awhile now and, i'm quite tired of hearing my own voice in my head. Haha. Oh btw, countdown at Dad's friend's cafe/restaurant with family friends was splendid. I had such fun. For once, I actually popped my own popper and watched it pop. HAHA, what a great start to 2009. I like spending all the countdowns to every occasion there. Hah. (:

Alrighty, heres a blessed 2009 to all. Many loves
