  LONG POST ALERT! Please read Post #55 too, it's funny.

  Old Year's Reflection:
  Okay, I call it the Old Year's Reflection because it's already 2009.

  2008 has been a 7/10 year for me. The beginning of the year did not start smoothly for me. Firstly, Ms Chong was going to be my Form Mistress again. Secondly, it was my graduating year, which means, the BIG exam - O Levels. Thirdly, I was in the Choir committee and my grades have not been good in Secondary school and, it's to my disadvantage, especially when we were going to compete overseas in Italy, taking part in 2 categories for the first time. Things were not going to be easy.

  I'm miffed now. I wrote a long post right here and decided to cut tag it. Thinking it'd be like lj-cut, I highlighted the whole portion and cut-tag it. YES. The cut-tag totally pasted over my long portion and now it's gone. GONE! IT WAS A NICE POST! ALL MY FEELINGS AND ALL! AHHHHHH.

  Ms Chong, Choir committee, Italy competition, Rejections, O Levels.

  But by the end of it all, I'd say,
  "Thank you." to Ms Chong and teachers,
  "We did beyond great and set history!" to IJ Choir,
  "Let's move on and laugh about it when we revisit the ol' times." to Rejections,
  "I'm glad it's over." to O Levels,
  "I'm sorry I wasn't good, but I bid all the best to the future generations." to Choir committee, and,
  "Not bad. Not bad." to 2008.

  

  New Year's Resolution:
  It's usually easy to make them and hard to remember and stick to them but this time, it's hard both ways, for me. So instead, I'm going to list down things I have to do because I want to do instead.

  In no particular order,

  1. Learn tap dancing. (attention EC and Simone!!) Forget it. Learn that in 2010 instead. HA. KICKBOXING
  2. Advance photography.
  3. Learn the songs I've always wanted to learn, on the bass guitar.
  4. Get a job or ask for "apprenticeship" from a professional photographer.
  5. Exercise. (Get me muscles and stamina back for better singing)
  6. Open up. To Jesus. And people.
  7. Keep in touch with my friends. (I hold you guys close to my heart. Have fun in tertiary education, Secondary education couldn't be that bad till you want nothing to do with it )

  And that's all for now. MUST-do things.
