A late new year post
Happy New Year to all you people out there. Though its a little late, who really cares right?
Before talking about the new year, i want to reflect a bit about the past year: 2005. On a whole, it was a great year. I've finally finished 12 years of formal education. Yipee!! And for the first time in my life, i didn't have to wake up early for school today! Yup. 2005. A great year on a whole, even though it had its ups and downs (sometimes more down than up). Actually, it would be better if i took the years in JC as a whole. JC was all new experiences: new friends, new environment, new types of people (the opposite sex) and much much more. I could say those will be the best years of my life. The crap i did with my friends, the problems we shared and the cursing and swearing which would inevitably follow after every other sentence. Yup. I'll always remember those days.
Now to 2006. The Army beckons. National Service is a mandatory blah blah blah... I've heard enough propaganda to last me a lifetime. Just want to get it over and done with. But i still want to have a good NS experience so i'm going in with a positive attitude. Just smile and do your push-ups! And by my calculations, after serving 1 year and 10 months in the army, i should ORD on the 5th of November 2007. REC liao! before ORD liao!
The promise of a new year. A fresh start. New opportunities. Time to forget the tribulations of the past and look forward to a bright future ahead. Hope things work out this year.
Here are some of my resolutions
Peace out!
