oh well...caught the flu. runny nose. -sniffs-
Its 31st December 2008! Never did i expect this day to come so soon. A lot of things have happened this year. New friendships, some lost ever so swiftly. New aspirations, new dreams, and new mindsets.
God has brought me far from where I was on the 31st of December 2007. I have been through a lot of joys and tears, too many to mention and perhaps remember in detail.
Some things may forever be etched in my memory...
Any regrets for this year? Definitely. Certain things could have been handled better to lessen the consequent pain. But without these, I believe I will not learn to handle things better. Since last year, I've wanted to be a cell group leader. I wouldnt say that the passion for it is buring as much as it was back then, but I know its still my desire. Ever since I declared that to God and my cell group friends, I guess, God has decided that I would need a lot of moulding. Perhaps that is why I went through so much this year. From finding out what I really want and what God wants for me, to fighting pragmatism against emotions. I could have been a better daughter, a better friend, a better good friend and a better Christian. I guess we are all on a journey and we gotta learn to forgive people and ourselves.
Any things worth celebrating abt this year? Yep...
I discovered some of my God-given gifts this year. I hope that after As, I might be able to pursue graphic design and stuff like that. I wanna be part of the church choir after As. :) Theres so much more to learn. I thank God for good friends, especially Jane. It takes effort for a friendship to be sustained and effort is needed especially when you are busy and find it hard to remember your friend and her needs. Thanks Jane, for remembering me. I hope I have not and will not forget you in your time of need. I am less stressed this year compared to 2007. Have I slackened? Im not sure. But if I have, I guess its only healthy for me to let up a bit. :) dont you agree?
Made a lot of decisions this year. Who doesnt yea? I tried to be adventurous and plan a Christmas party for my class, which of course wldnt happen without the help of the other ppl in my class. :) and other little things like taking more initiative at home.
Next yr is gona be tough. A levels... no joke. Everyone is getting worried and i get worried along with them. Are we overreacting? God says, why worry abt tomorrow, sufficient for today is its own worries. I guess, we just need to start working. :) Aim high but dont forget to prepare a safety net :)
Oh well, I hope I get well before year 2009! Till next time :)
