Happy New Year's Eve!!

The old chapter closes, and a new chapter begins. For me, it's my A level year. (what the heck? i just took O levels 1 year ago!!) The year ahead may not promise much, because my time would be devoted to studying my guts out just for 5 papers. But it is still a new year, new beginnings, new happenings. Who knows what the future holds? I'm praying that God will guide me through the difficult times ahead, the dark times of not understanding, of handling the stress (i have 4 exams next year) and of coping with the other aspects of life. 2007 marks the year i turn 18 (muahahha!!) and there will be added responsibilities and experiences to go through and hold on to for the rest of my life.

"But I know who holds tomorrow, and I know who holds my hand." I'll put my trust in God and God alone.

Year 2006 has been one great year. A year filled with many new things, from jc life, to handling so much more content-based subjects, to making many more new friends as well as the happy times together. Let's start with the first 3 months. I was a lonely soul in ac on the first day of school... but after a week i was enjoying my time as a new J1 with my og mates, screaming as if there's no tomorrow. I had the time of my life with my ac classmates, playing with them during class so much so that i didnt really study during the first three months.

Then, for some reason, i decided to change jc. (until now, i don't fully understand the real reason why i put nj). But i still believe that by putting me in nj, God has a purpose that would ultimately benefit me. My brother didnt understand why he had to go through shit for the first few months of sim, struggling with finishing off his army and going for lessons until he received his results this year. A 2nd upper honours! Anyway, nj has thought me to mug (LIKE DUH!), save money, eat healthy (thanks to ghis) as well as learn moral values that are upright and righteous. To put it simply, guai kia!! Lessons have also brought me to greater heights and helped me learn to ask questions that i normally wouldnt. Hey! I'm not as stupid as i thought i was. That's one thing i realised.

I guess one of the reasons of God putting me in nj is because He has blessed me with great friends that i wouldnt be able to be close to if i were in ac. I'd spend all my time travelling that i wont be able to meet up that often with them. Xt & Jaime have been great friends throughout my sec school life but i kinda mia-ed during the first 3 months in ac because i was having too much fun there. Now, they're still great people and great friends. I have also found great friendship in raf, edwin, shafik & the other wolsies and many are there in times of need to show care and concern, or just to laugh, crack super funny jokes and laugh all night. They're one bunch that i'll always treasure.

Then there's 4a2 classmates, my clique. Sharon, Ry, Serene, Yq, Celene, Xy, Jasmine and the others. They've been one crazy bunch, and we've met many times this year, although we're all in different schools now. I still love to tease yq along with celene, ry & serene are forever telling us the hilarious tales of their school, jasmine is still as perverted. haha. Meeting up with them for the pl singing, during christmas and many other times has been wonderful, catching up and comparing school food! haha. We'll be meeting many more times next year, we're already in the process of planning. Of course, there are many other people who have made a great impact in my life this year but i'm too lazy to type. I miss pl, and soon, those who have graduated will really realise how sheltered pl is, and they will miss it, the homely feel and the christian teachings. They've moved back and i dont get to enjoy it. bleahs. Pl will always remain as the school that brought me up to what i am today.

As i mentioned earlier, my brother has done well in his exams and has now found a job. My sis, still working and finally bought her own laptop (so now this computer's solely mine!!). Dad & Mum are doing fine, and it has been a blessed year for my family, in which God has opened doors for us, as well as guide us through the year as a family. I'm really blesssed to be where i am, to have parents who love God and who have instilled that into me as well as support me in times of need. And i still wanna thank my dad for my christmas present. =)

My new year resolutions:
-To survive through my A levels
-To draw closer to God
-To retain the friendships forged throughout this year
-To get over my fear of running (HA!)

I can't think of anymore off-hand. I wish His second coming will be before i take my A's, but i know i can't run away from exams like that. Well, if i can, i hope to bring people to Christ next year, but i need diligence! I need the discipline from Him in order to do so.

"Lord I offer my days to You, Lord I offer you my Life" and i believe he'll be there always for me and everyone who believes in Him!

That's all for now. My next post will be next year. Cool!~
