when everything is coming to an end, we start to look at the beginning.
or rather, in the case, the process.
2007 was filled with mountains and valleys.
the depth of those valleys? like that of the black hole.
however, when asked as to which year i would like to relive, my answer is 2007.
2007 is the year that i've truly learnt how to be independent (in all aspects of life). been through, in my perception, the extremes of life - happiness vs sadness, rational & right vs irrational & incorrect decisions, etc.
but after everything, i do realise that all the setbacks this year had made me a much stronger person than i was in 2006.
and i really look forward to 2008 where i know circumstances will help me grow much more. (:
relief teaching in unity was the happiest thing that can happen this year. seeing the innocent faces of the kids really put my mind off the negative things. many a time i will just stare at them during assembly and smile - smiling at how they look at life, wishing that i could somehow still have their perception of life. having a bunch of caring colleagues was a plus point too. i really missed fridays-after-school-party with pat, eunice, yunyee, yvonne, dawn&xiuling. it's known that the most noisy 'alley' is our alley. (: i'm also very grateful to dawnsoh, shirley, vp&p for their guidance. especially to dawnsoh&shirley. i'll nv forget how both of them defended me against the vp&p even though i'm just a relief & the school can always replace me with another relief. thank you! (: this experience in unity really helped me alot in school now, and i'm really thankful for all the people that i've met there. ((:
orientation week in school was actually dreaded by me. but it turned out fine, or rather better than expected. even though i skipped FOC but i'm still thankful for the people that i've known during this sem. we worked together for presentations, assignments, planning our cip. we mugged together, where most of the time we sidetracked. heh. we wasted our long breaks away together in the lib's cafe. we laughed hard together or at one another. we encouraged one another. we dropped short & sweet msg to one another, letting them know we'll always be there for one another. and most of time, they listened to me complain & whine to them. even though it's only a short period of time, they have been looking out for me, taking in one another's shortcomings, and i dont know what else to say but a big fat THANK YOU! esp to those that i've worked with for presentations, assignment & CIP: priya, seeming, debbie & yanping (AED105), chauchoon, sidney & yanping (AAE101), hui, shah, binchuan & eleanor (AED102), melissa & ying hui (ALK101) & hui, yanping, cat, roopini, fizah, reena, raudah, liyana, sabby, sakinah, sherene, chihui, linna, hana, tohjin, chauchoon, sidney, praba, matt, ramesh, sigmund & last but not least our gesl faci: charles! (: (GESL)
the year ended with a blast! successful cip execution (C.H.O.C. MILK, gogogo!), and meet-ups with everybody. ((: even though another year has ended, meet-ups taught me something - true friendships will last even though time may pass. and the coming year will only make me put in more effort to keep our friendships going. (:
before the year comes to an end, i want to thank these people for what they've done for me in 2007.
a big, fat, huge THANK
YOU
to xin, peiling, suxian, gene, ade, hema, sidney, praba, tohjin, chau choon, hui, yanping, seeming, vanessa, wee, stephie, chunren, hongseng, enhua, joel, gina. thanks for being there when i'm really down & for encouraging me. thanks for making this year a memorable year even with all the unhappy memories, but hey, you people gave me much more happy memories to cover & hide those unhappy memories! (:
special thanks to limjiaxin: thank you for being there without fail when the world seem to be crashing on me - events that happened to make me wonder the existence of me in the world. even though it's always in the middle of the night, thanks for always being the first one there to comfort me, and reminding me that i'm stronger than i think i am. those times would have been unbearable without you there. i'll do my utmost best to be there for you as well, even when school starts for us, which means lesser time for us to talk on the phone and everything. thankyou SO much. (:
happy new year's eve to all! ((:
