This had been a great year. Weird, but special. Deepest thanks to those who were there for me. No names...But you noe who you are. I must have told u a thousand million times oredi. Once again, thanks for the past year. Sincerely.
2003 must have been the bestest year of my life. Its so special it feels as if it was 2 or 3 years squeezed into one.
Start of the year: Working at SIM. Had the first serious working experience and became the closest of frenz wif weiliang. This is such a god-given "brother". I appreciate him so much in times when onli wat he said seems to make sense, and the world is talking gibberish. Thanx bro!
Next few months: Got into SA. Almost forgot the feeling of schooling. Regrettals all over me as i realised i just wasted 2 years of my life. Tried hard to fit in. Tried very hard to make up for lost time.
Dream come true: Saw a sun yanzi on my b'dae when i crashed SA, then again after some sentosa trip. The hunt is on. Weeks of trying, 7 days of chat, 3 hrs of boring "animal farm" play when i watched her sleep. Heavens. Then Hell. Now Earth.
Following up: Began to feel friendship in school. Glad, but realised i was losing touch with the other side of the world. Chose to ignore. Realised it didnt realli matter. 10 years of friendship minds not 10 mths of negligence. Strong as ever.
zooming past: Good times past fast. Nearing the end of the year real soon. Too soon. But i didnt noe there was so much more in store. It was october b4 i realised it.
meanwhile: Became such an outdoors person. Suddenly remembers of jian sheng saying i was a "town-person". Took up kayaking seriously. Fell in love. Now going for 3 stars nxt. Speaking for kayaking, let's move into october. More surprises awaits.
October: Too many things happen, dun really rmb the sequence of it all. I made a "new" fren, my silly little fren (lifted material). All too sudden, HC open hse which i-dunno-why-i-went but end-up-not-being-to-reach-in-time-because-of-SOMEONE!! But i have far too much to thank her to even think of blaming her now. Anyway, went to coronation plaza, den town, showed silly little fren rounded dice, had smoothie, and then home. Next day: serious day of fun. Kayaking again, but i swear it felt different. It was deepavali.
And then again in the subsequent week. It was halloween.
In between the two, took up blogging. Read someone's blog for the first time, and sentiments filled me over. That was the first time i remembered having such serious chat wif her. About friendship, about being "illusive", and questioning my position as a friend. Black eye the nxt day, she was late for skl. sorry.
S paper dilemma. Such drama. Glad it's over.
holidays part 1/3: This was the initial holiday period. Doing nuttin, slacking, and going for physical trainings for odac. Had a chalet at ECP and made a 11 year old fren who called to wish me "happy new year". Found my rollerblading crave to be repressed for too long oredi. Will be rollerblading VERY frequently in 2004. I hope. LOTS of walking alone in town, and hating the word "tentative"
holidays part 2/3: Packing for OBS. Heavy hearts. 9 days of wilderness, feared the worst. Speak like i'm going to die. Went OBS. Didnt want it to end. 9 days of pure fun. 9 days of magic. 9 days of discovering the inner me. The 9 days of REAL living. Came back, felt real bad. Met wif sui sen. Seoul Garden.
final run: Last stretch of holidays. Watched lotr THREE times over wif the many gatherings i had. Felt real good meeting colleagues from "start of the year". My year getting complete. Feeling lonely, intensely lonely being home alone for over 9 days. Thot it would be fun, but not realli. Trust me, it sux esp during the festives. Mood swings. Popcorns popping everywhere, all cleaned up now. But preparing to endure more seeds, shall watch tuscan sun.
new year eve: The weirdest of combination of ppl having dinner together. Somehow it felt like the "fellowship of the ring", people u wld NEVER expect having dinner together. But it was great tho. Finally met silly little fren after much tribulations. Silent dinner, all the lameness stored up for the poor 2 gals at the end of the EVE. Had some real real fun wif 2 unexpected guest. Preety gals i would say, nay, confirm. Thanks.
meanwhile in the holiday: somehow made frens wif miss frog princess, or rabbit. Good end to the year, and how it twist i leave it to u, but we were actually together at "the end of the year". Hmmm.....weird. And to think about it, i heard about miss frog princess "at the start of the year" (read above) While i was at SIM. Now i noe why the world spins in rounds.
The most complete of years. Thanks to everyone mentioned. Thank You.
