Hell no - that's Boxing Day.
Ha, ok, i know its a bit retarded. Anyway, Happy New Year, yall. (: Yesterday, i had a pretty boring new year eve's day, well, until vanda, huilin, mingfen and sharon came over for the countdown. Ha, another countdown, but was mighty fun yesterday. Went to the rooftop to play wif sparklers and some pple were shouting the countdown and we sort of shout along with them. They sort of see the fireworks in the distance but i missed it la. ):
Played with sparklers along the pool, along with joei. Ha, her house damn happening. Anyway, went back talk cock, eat junk and dance. Ha, we played all the songs in the laptop and err... dance. Got pretty hungry and we finished all the food that could be finished, which is quite A LOT. So went to cook instant noodles. Yeah, my first meal of 2007 - Abalone instant noodles with egg cooked by me, mfen and sharon. What a perfect start. Ha, got quite high after eating, toking gibberish and laughing at nothing. Quite retarded. ha. Oh yah, dunno who started on Mr keong la, wth, for the whole night his face and the way he sang the chinese new year song kept popping up in my mind. *shudders.
I'm pretty crashed now. Tink i slept less than what i had during the As this week. I WANT SLEEP! But some reviews about the past year.
'06 had been a rather hectic one. The whole year rushed pass in a flurry and i don't remember having any time to really slow down to catch a breath. I am glad to have met people who can click well together, renew old ties and know more pple.
JC presents a window of opportunities and a backdoor of regrets. The whole system demands a lot from us and i think i demanded more from myself in '06. I set loftier goals and attempted to work on them. But this meant more and greater disappointments as well. Sometimes i would just feel like kicking myself for not going one step further in doing what i had dreamed of. I looked at the various juniors and i wondered how they'd feel 1 yr down the road. Would they have dared to dream further than what we had. And have we dared to embrace the future as our seniors have did.
There are many things which i hadn't the courage to do and i wondered what it'd have been if i had gone for it. But there isn't really any point for any regrets. I remembered ms chan once said that there shldn't be any regrets in our life because at that point of time when we made our decisions, it was the best decision to be made.
Yes, believe it or not, JC had been self-discovery and pretty enlightening. I saw and experienced things i've never gone thru before. And i survived them all.
2 years on, i can finally pat myself on my back and tell myself i have been there and done that.
Veni, Vidi, Vici
