With each year that passes its dawning on me how old this blog is already! Look at the long line of archives at the side haha. Blogspot is boring but I'm just too lazy to move away from here and there are all these memories that are recorded inside here. Its kind of embarrassing seeing what stupid things we did in secondary one and all that but still, its all part of who I am (and now I'm all grown up :D) From thirteen to eighteen (in a few months time!) Eighteen is such a scary number. And there are people around me who have already turned eighteen this year. Eek.
Anyway, the usual thing we are obliged at the end of every year and the beginning of another--looking back at the year! 2009 has really been like one major learning experience. After four years of St. Nicks and being accustomed to all the sisterhood, friendships, teachers who are always nagging at you about moral values and all that, basically being so comfortable inside a safe environment I was really quite reluctant to move on and adapt to so many changes. I remember trying to be positive about all the changes last year when we were about to enter JC, crossing my fingers and hoping for the best. Now when you look back its hard not to sigh a little with amazement at how fast everything has changed, how people have grown up, moved on, and especially how many people you've managed to meet and get to know. Sometimes when people I only met this year do nice things or look out for me I just feel so grateful that they will even go to that extent to care despite the short span of time we've spent together :D And of course I'm still glad that the people who I've known forever are still going to be peng you for a long long long long time :D Thank you friends :D You know who you are!
Anyway. It would take extremely long to try to detail every single thing I've learnt or experienced but all those things that I went through this year--adjusting to the jc environment, orientation, meeting A13 and all the silly whacky stuff that happen,going through the ups and downs of huangcheng, from auditions to the rehearsals and gongyan, finally standing on the huangcheng stage, meeting all the many many awesome huangchengren, trying to make nerve-wracking decisions about elections, trying to mug for BTs and other random stuff, being a math failure, being sleep-deprived, coping with pw (not to mention the erm not-so-pw related problems), many many zhiwei outings and nice dinners, drama camp and all my awesome kids in orange, and the list goes on, every single one of these experiences have left me with so many thoughts and things I've never realised I didn't know until I encountered them.
Please let me have an awesome 2010 :D Among the list of resolutions lies the following brief hopes: appreciate my friends, love myself, get enough sleep and exercise, eat healthy food, make people happy, pay attention in class, grow academically in time for the A levels, spend more time with the family, try to end each day on a happy note :D Like what I am doing now :D Take care my friends!
