The old has gone, The new has come!

A very happy new year to all! Only this year did i notice how terribly close Christmas is to the new year. Good or bad thing?i dunno. Its kinda cool that the beginning and the end occurs at the same time. That is, the end of the past year and the beginning of tHe new year.

Whenever it comes to the last half an hour of the year, i always get super sentimental... i spend the whole time flashing back on the events & experiences during the year; how i have changed during the year or how those events have changed me, and getting myself mentaly prepared to put whatever undesirable things onto the departing train and welcome the new year with a fresh start.

Last night i experienced what it was like to have a year passed in the blink of an eye. And it came so swiftly i was caught unprepared. Since there was no nightwatch service so i spent the last hours of the year at home. I thought there were a few minutes more, so i went about doing my own stuff. And when i was peeing halfway, i suddenly heard lotsa screams and the host on TV shouted "HAPPY NEW YEAR SINGAPORE!!" So of course i knew what that meant and i was like "what? the year has passed already? so fast? hey, im not ready yet!!" I had this kind of feeling like as if the train left without me. Haha. Anyway... what a place to spend the first second of the new year - in front of a toilet bowl! Lucky im not some superstitious person, if not it may signify bad luck of some sort.

Just after the new year began, the first thing i did was to bring the new year greeting to all my online contacts on msn. But there were only about 15 of them, and less than 10 responded. So i extended the greetings to those who werent online or responsive by a tag on their blogs. For those who dint have blogs... 2bad! haha. And thats where i 'lost' to a 'competitor'! Nadine Foo was about 10 minutes earlier than me to go around to ppl's blogs to tag. And then i realised... SHE WISHED HAPPY NEW YEAR ON EVERYONE'S BLOG EXCEPT MINE!!! Thats so saddening la. not that im jealous but... it feels like im the odd one out.

Anyway, as commonly practiced, a new year comes with new year resolutions! So what r everyone's resolutions? As for me, right now the biggest wish is to be filled with joy and satisfaction when i collect my O lvl results in 1+ months time. Other resolutions can be made further in the year, cant it? haha =)
