2007
For me, 2006 has passed by rather swiftly. I have to admit shyly that I haven't done any significance for the whole 2006 except for gaining Boon. Basically, my 2006 revolves around a typical college life. I don’t know if I’ve grown a bit but I sure do have matured in relationships, be it friendships or with Boon.I have to agree with the quotes from Shal's site. Growing up do suck and as we step a year ahead, it seems like there are more responsibilities waiting for us to uphold. I have always wondered what my life will be like in the next few years or perhaps in ten years time. Will my career be successful and that it is related to my course now? Or would I end up being a clerk for the rest of my life? That would be quite saddening.
Last year, I have lost touch with quite some friends and I really hope they would understand my complexity. It is really not easy to make up to everyone you know and just to let BN knows, you guys are the people I would never trade anything for. High school life shall be reminisced and kept in memory as long as lives lead on. I strongly believe that our friendships bond are strong enough to keep us together despite distance, those who are abroad and going abroad. Every meets will end with goodbyes but as long as it is all in the hearts, we sure will cherish one another no matter how distance will soon pull us apart, right? Having Poh Yee and Caryn to leave on February will really be a downpour for the rest here. I guess we have all adapted with departures huh? Let's make study our first priority.
I'm quite sure most of us believe in Karma. Treating people the way you want to be treated. How many people you know who has pure charisma? We bitch about people, we curse when we see a driver go nuts, we ignore those weak, we never have enough of live, always wanting something more, we procrastinate, we assume we are not good enough and tend to always compare.
Look into the mirror and you know yourself best. Gaze into your eyes of reflection and think hard whether you have done your part in whichever way. We struggle to not give a damn about what other people say bout us but words could be so poisonous especially from beloveds. Treat your friends the way you want to be treated.
To the person who came into my life and got stuck in a relationship with me =P,
Thank you for the year 2006 and I must say that 2006 would be much lonelier without you. There might be some things you haven't noticed and i want to let you know that you have touched me with every little thing you do. The first few months were so hard for the both of us and we are sure glad we have made it through. Thank you for not giving up on me. I can still anticipate the next few days for us but in years time, we might be miles apart. Whatever lies ahead, you have already owned a territory in my heart, therefore let’s just adjust to what we have in store for future. Thank you again, Bi~
It suddenly strikes my mind about death. My one and only New Year resolution would be a body check out and to drivers on the road, specifying to my friends, drive safely because every time we drive, we are practically putting our lives in our hands. There might be some other sohai who drives like mad so please don't be a sohai la k?
It feels silly how I actually wanted to cut my wrist over some stupid things long long time ago. This year, I promise to appreciate live better.
To the hero I respect most, thank you for putting in so much in saving this family. Without you, I simply cannot imagine how my life would be. Over the past 6 years, I know it has been tough for you to keep this family in shape and nobody would understand how much you've suffered. Dad, you will never know how blissful I feel every night when you get ready dinner all by yourself for us and grandma. I know how much you like it when we praise on your new recipe. =) I still remember the one time you called me during National Service asking how I was doing and those tears which flew down my cheeks from warmth. I love you from the bottom of my heart and how I wish I could tell you all these. You know whenever you smile or laugh out loud I would feel tremendously happy? I had tears in my eyes bringing in the chinese 'sau pau' for you on your birthday. You said you were sick of birthday cake and it was all worth it when we came out with the brilliant idea by buying the 'sau pau' because the smile carved on your face was sure satisfying. You are the one I love most and there are harsh things you said which cause me weeping in the toilet. Nevertheless, I still respect and love you dearly. I wish I could hug you tight letting you know that I am so proud to be your daughter. I don't want to regret one day. I am very afraid. If I have a genie on hand, I swear I would wish for your longevity.
Last but not least, to those whom I have influenced directly or indirectly, I'm very sorry.
Let's toss for a fantastic 2007
