wow. i haven't updated in eons. i blame the person who took my charger and didn't return it. boo you. now i'm sitting here in my robe hoping my battery wont't die out.

here's a belated HAPPY NEW YEAR! gosh, that was loud. anyway, since everyone is doing reflections and resolutions, i thought i'll do them too (:

reflections

this past year i've...

undertaken a whole new academic journey
slugged through my almost-done school year
made wonderful amazing gorgeous friends (:
watched alot of discovery channel (i don't know why this is relevant, but it makes me sound intellectual, no?)
refound love in beading, which pays miserably anyway
found love, lost love and got over it
found new love in ami james (ah-me! not amy..)
had my first kiss
had other new experiences
changed drastically, i think, anyway
joined a band (aha aha aha??)
been introduced the the evils of the beatles and denise keller and darcy from smashing pumpkins and jennifer garner and maple and weird shooting/fighting games on laptops
had my first 'prom'
received roses from guys, which hasn't happened since freaking sec 3
realised my cousins are studs in school (oh gosh)
gone to a club for the first time
seen girl-on-girl for the first time (AHH)
bought my first music player thingy
seen the making of the world-famous video "brownzilla attacks card city"
chosen the location for my wedding (ya, i know it's freaky.)
had grey eyes
reaffirmed my dislike for chij girls
fallen in love with chris daughtry, minus wife and kids
walked down orchard rd in halloween costume
been banned from future sleepovers
been told by a spirit board that i'm gonna marry a british guy (AHH)
heard that my sister was told by a friend she's going to marry an indian doctor/lawyer
fallen in love with beetles
realised i obsess over things alot
learnt to let go better than before
loved life

i've never done so many things before in any other year in my life. i've never felt so many things in any other year in my life. before starting i thought i wouldn't be able to write much down. i know some of them are nonsense, but that's still alot of stuff! I'd love to say i don't regret anything i've done. and i think i almost can (:. i almost don't regret all the mistakes, the misjudgements.

2006 was amazingly bittersweet. you can call it a.... turning point in my life :D. turning point for every aspect. my career path, my family, my friends, my love life, my beliefs. bah. ya.

something good always comes out of it. like that. how else would i have seen how patient my friends are with me, how caring and sweet. and sabby, you're right, if that never happened, i wouldn't have gotten close to you. so in some ways, i'm glad it did.

note: thanks for the email, sabby. i love u much much many many long time too. that email was really sweet, you made me cry! which, actually, isn't a hard thing to do. oh well.

on to.. *drumroll* 2007!
