new year

hmm so fast its 2005. xmas eve and xmas flew by, then new yr eve and new yr flew by too. HAPPY new year. im officially 22 this yr, altho i juz turned 21.

22. oh man. i feel old

new yr resolutions. hmm perhaps just a simple one.. to make an effort to put others before self. its always a struggle, but its better than not trying..

had early reunion dinner with my dads side. 18 of us. cant remember when was the last time all of us sat down together for a meal. but it was nice cos my uncle came back from japan with yoko!! (dun ask me why i got so many jap relatives..) upload the fotos ltr.

meanwhile, tmr i start class at SMU. limin was saeing she steps into school at sec 3. well, i step into school as YEAR 3, sem 2. gee. one more sem to fly by and i will be in 4th year. FOURTH year. final year. honours yr i.e. the last yr to relax before masters or worse, hell working world.

gave a thought about the frenships i have. decided to let things go.. and perhaps its time for me to slow down and not keep trying to keep in touch with people whu arent very interested, and channel the energy to people to matter more.

l  e a r n  t o  l e t  g o. . . b e a t r i c e........

oh and before i forget..

reflections on this holidays

as of each hols, i shall summarize what i have done

1) met up with people that i want to spend time with e.g. darhling, liyi, shireen, cuiwen, jinzhan, jiehao, grace lim, arm, people from 00s64, cheryl tan. and soon to be - jo, felicia, frog

2) had a successful birthday party

3) had a good rest.

4) cleaned up the house.

5) watched 115 episodes of naruto

6) went malaysia to visit great-grandma

7) had lotsa bowling training

8) tried out california fitness

9) set up new computer

basically decided to take these hols slowly and focus on spending it with people

things i failed to do

1) go sentosa

2) go to that park place at hindhede

3) go out with mark, rena or xueling

its okie, must always have things i failed to do so i have something to look forward to doing

many things i have done this year - on exchange from jan to may (visiting vancouver, quebec, montreal, alberta, banff, LA, las vegas, seattle and victoria), on internship with PSC, econs fellowship, going to arpc, modelling, getting a perfect 5.

and yet many things to look forward to - exchange with smu, work and travel, possibility of going for noc. time will pass inevitably.. but i embrace the new year. wunder where i will be in 1 year's time?

perhaps being a so-called high flyer has its ills.

if i had a choice, i wud pick a frenship above grades. but why cant i have both? :(

i miss the old days when we were both carefree, our days overseas, when life wasnt so complicated. when there were not yet failures and setbacks and life was full of optimism. can our frenship endure?

being in a place that i feel i dun belong is bad enuff. even my frenships dun belong to me. juz another remind that everything is from Him.

let's pray for all affected by the earthquake. lets not be complacent juz because we are shielded by sumatra
