-I need to revive this dead blog-

lol that's why I'm here. a new year, new perspectives on life. and I hope I will have the perseverance to record it down on this webpage.

I just knew that this year will be a horrible year. facing challenges and stuff. a fun year but a terrible year at that. just wanted to take this chance to thank my friends from 2m, hsien, etc for being with me all the way for the past year. 2m was really ownage, really very sad to part with them.

3b 08 rawks actually. its really cool. made lots of new friends at obs. cheers haozhi, sup, clement, benn, renjie, arun etc. Speaking of obs, I really miss it even though the five days were seriously sad. I hated the time I was hiking with that ownagely heavy bag on my shoulders as I trekked. I felt myself getting shorter. but after the kayaking I realized that the moment I step out of this place, I would have to revamp myself. I would. I would treasure my friends, treasure my opportunities. I would learn from my mistakes, take everything steady, try not to be distracted.

I come back with a tan, a backpack, a crumpled certificate and a nice orange wristband, reminding me of the precious moments I would miss in obs, kayaking and crazily singing songs at the head of the team. when I reach home and go down to buy dinner, I see that supermarkets now seem empty. full of irrelevant material luxuries. strangely it's a rather interesting perspective to things. It makes me feel as if I take lots of things for granted back at home.

This feeling is now fading away, but I will never forget these memories. This has changed practically every aspect of life I see. I suddenly want to do work. I want to make friends. I feel like crying everyday though not knowing why. When I was in tjs I was shocked but I decided to work hard for it (surprisingly! I would have quit immediately), facing the odds, meeting challenges, failing, and meeting them again.

My taste of music has changed too. Soft raps, clinging piano music in the background. smooth.

Hsien, you go sis. do well in debates, I'll be there for your cheem rants even though you speak so fast I dun understand half of what you are saying sometimes.

All the best for 2008.
