HAPPY BLESSED NEW YEAR, EVERYONE :)
It's a brand new year once again, 2009 has came and gone, be 2009 a smooth sailing or a rough year for every one of us, it's now time to put it behind us and embrace the new year, because I'm sure, it's going to be a good year ahead- if you believe that it'd be, that is... haha...
so are your new year resolutions set? in the past, I used to think that new year resolutions are bullshit, what's words without action? resolutions to me were like making a wish upon the stars, which meant, how often does it really happen, that's probably because I'm a person who procrastinate all the time, wanting things to happen, but not working hard enough to make it happen. Over the years, my take on making a resolution has changed... Resolutions to me are now like a driving force, constantly reminding myself of what I want to achieve, and working hard towards it :)
Back in secondary school, i wasn't a sporty person at all... I remember always feigning sick during PE lessons to escape the vigorous regime the teacher has set... But on the last day of 2007, I've set a resolution for myself that I would want to dabble in sports after I enter poly, to try something new, to leave my comfort zone... and true enough, I've done it. I'm a proud badminton player in RP and Kebun Baru now ^^ I may not be a truly wonderful player, I may still have much room for improvements, but I'm still happy with what I've achieved, because, it was a huge leap of faith and hard hard I had to put in, before getting to where I am today...
This year, when asked about my resolution, I jokingly said, "to win 1st price in the yearly TOTO Ang Bao Draw, that way, I will be able to fulfil many more resolutions which I have". haha! but seriously speaking, I kinda wanna achieve so much more, I realised there are so many things which I want to work towards to. Firstly, I want to work hard in my last lap of poly life, get good enough results to enter NTU/ NUS. Secondly, after I graduate, i want to sign myself up with a language school and pick up a new language- Korean. Thirdly, I want to achieve a better silhouette, so that I can be a role model to my mum, and let her know that we have to take full responsibility of our own lives, and that it's important to remain healthy, because no one can help her if she refuse to help herself... But ultimately, I want my family and loved once to have a blessed, healthy and happy year ahead :)
a brand new year, a fresh new beginning.
