2005 to 2006

Okay .. i think i owe you people the usual new year new resolution blog that everyone has on their blog on new year's day . You know the usual blog on how the past year has been and what people hope to achieve in the coming year .

First off , what happened last year . I think some major milestones would be how i've finished off my National Slimming (NS) , without much help towards the slimming portion . I'm still fat . The next would be entering into hell , i mean SMU . What seemed at that point of time a good idea for both milestones turned out to be something the complete opposite . I rather be with my nice friends in my previous department and working with interesting people , than entering SMU and meeting weirdest of people i've ever met who think that their life depends on grades . I know a lot of people say that university life is suppose to be fun and all , but it hardly feels like fun when you're still in school at 11pm mugging for exams . While i don't think things are going change anything soon with the mugging , but i think in 2006 , i'll make it a more fulfilling year , i think it would be nice to participate more in school stuff ... i'm involved in a couple of dive projects next year and i'm helping to organise the SS conference .... busy busy busy .. and perhaps academically , i hope that things will be better without statistics ... BGS already seems like a major pain . But as all business modules are , just add more smoke .

Last year was also the year that i've lost my handphone twice , and because of this , i think i no longer need an expensive handphone with so many functions that i hardly use . Hell , i don't even use the camera function . so , it's back to simplicity this year .

I also got Dengue last year on my 21st birthday . how dramatic of me . at least i got it when dengue was in .. so i joined the hip club and we were hot ( literally ) ... and according to michelle , i was "part of the statistics" .. Maybe this year i'll make up for it by throwing a nice dinner/party .

It was also in 2005 that i got my driving license after a kazillion tries and also manage to get into a minor car accident in the same year . I still don't like driving , i like driving alone , but just not driving people around . It's nice to have people around , but i dunno .. it's just different .

On a more personal , i'm less evil true , but maybe more anti-social . maybe it is to keep the weird people away from me . i can pretend to not see people if want to .. just smile like regina george and proceed to say "that is the fugliest skirt i've ever seen" .... that should change . I've also learnt not to care so much and take a clinical approach to work related matters . I dunno .. i don't think these stuff are very me per se but just mere defense mechanisms built in place , but i'm not thinking people will change anytime soon , but .. oh well ... people . living in a cave would be so much easier .

I really dunno what i can add in this post , i mean , people's new year post are usually more dramatic with how i met this person and broke up with this person ( though i did sorta make a bet that i'll get attached before my 21st birthday... hahahaha ) , but none of that ever happens to me , my post is going to seem majorly less exciting . Though on the same note about relationships . I'm charging with effect from this year . An hour (culmalative) of my relationship advice or you just whining to me about your love life will cost you $2 . Take advantage of it now before i decide to major in psychology and run off to take clinical psychology and make you pay more .

I'm going off for a short trek in malaysia tmrw for the weekends and hopefully when i come back , the horrors of the first week of school can be forgetting or at least cushioned and get ready for the onslaught of madness that follows . meanwhile , happy new year to you all and good luck with those silent resolutions you have quietly met . you know what you want , have fun chasing them .
