With that devastating tsunamis around, how to celebrate new year happily? Is it really going to be a dreary new year? We've already got everything horrible these few years, with what, insane madmen (Os*m* lah, B*sh lah) out loose, all those killer viruses (Wah seh, for SARS must wear mask! Like those kiasi Japanese people then got that freaking chicken flu, no eggs for weeks! Almost died!) and all that drama mama elections (America and Taiwan lah), not forgetting the China-Taiwan conflict (Want to burn flag back also don't know wanna burn whose flag!). Oh oh! And the Nicol Highway boo boo! (And all the other boo boos that followed!)
But instead of looking at the bad side of life. I think I'll be thankful and grateful for the good things this year and thank God for everything that's great, and not rant on the 'Aiyo. Such a bad year!' outlook. Because bad things happen every year. It's about looking at all the good things that come along. If not, life would be a total drag. Heh. I know it sounds rather like selfish to look at the good things that happened to me only. When I read it again, it does sound pretty self centred. But if I were to moan about bad things that happen to others all year round. Heck it, I'd be wrinkled dry by now!
These are only five of the numerous great things that happened this year:
1. I got to know my dearie better and we got together! (It's gonna be three months soon!)
2. I learnt to live without eggs (only for awhile)!
3. Pug Jelly and Electrico (both local bands) hit our Top 100 charts. WOO HOO! Long live local bands!
4. I got to know what being CCAless felt like. (Not exactly something great, but it was an experience.)
5. Talking like some siao char bor to little kiddies and discovering the inner kindergarten teacher/mama in me for Green Week 2004!
Yeah. :) It's a pretty good year. Oh yeah! And a number 6 would be I learnt how to 'gamble'. As in I learnt Mahjong and Taiti. Heh. I haven't played both yet though. But I sort of know how the game goes now!
I'm gonna spend my last second of 2004 tomorrow and my first second of 2005 with my dearie tomorrow! Sounds so sweet. :) Hohoho! Can't wait... ... Heheh. And I'm giving Clara, Ting Yan and Annabelle their very freakingly overdue presents to them tomorrow. :) I hope Annabelle likes black squirmy furry objects with tails! I hope Ting Yan is still as bo liow. And I hope Clara likes white clouds against blue. :) Only then will it be a Merry Christmas present!
Gah! So cold these days. Can't keep myself awake for too long before I feel like hugging my nice warm bolster and covering myself with my blanket. Sleepy.
I have a sudden urge and desire to attend a wedding dinner! :) Weird!
**carrie** (loves wei sheng!)(wishes everyone an early happy new year!)
P.S: Thanks to Ada, Amy, Nat for being such sweet people and for cheering me up when I needed it most. And of course a lot of love to my dearie for being so understanding and for playing songs to me to cheer me up when I felt horrible about myself! Thanks for being the light in my darkest hour(s). :) You're so appreciated.
This blog contains the memories of two people who hated each other at first, managed to get to know each other anyway, got attached for a year plus and then decided to break up.
They are very different people especially in personality and even though they love(ed) each other very much, there are some things that because of love, you have to let go.
Just happened that it would have to be this relationship.
They now remain very very good friends. (Time will tell if this sentence actually holds.)
