Is it too late to wish everyone a Happy New Year? hmmmm. Actually I don't think it's too late. It's like the whole of January is there for us to celebrate new year right? okay, it gets a bit exaggerating. haha. oh man. Today is already the fourth day of January.
BLESSED 2008!
man, time really flies! It seems like it was just yesterday that I was taking my O level exams. And "boom", we're already in 2008! Sometimes I just wish that time will just slow down and not fly for once.
Initially I wanted to blog on the last day of 2007 or the first day of 2008, but it failed because I'm so busy with projects and projects. Now that my stats project is finally finished, I can have a breather! whooooo.. Nowadays I've been reflecting(in and out of my life) whenever I'm on the bus. And somehow I'll get emo whenever I think of my secondary school life and life in church youth.
I really miss a lot of people! People like Jasmine, Zishan, Valerie, TzeWei, 4s sincerity jokers and many more. I miss everyone in NED, NEE, Karchian, RachelFong, YiHui, Luannie, Xiaoting and many many people. hmmmm. I would say that 2007 is a year that is very different. It is a year with challenges after challenges, transitions after transitions, disappointments after disappointments and meeting new people after meeting new people.
To be honest, of all the seventeen years that I've lived in this earth, I feel that 2007 is one of my worst years. There's quite a number of occasions that I felt really helpless and fraustrated. There were lots of misunderstanding from friends and even my family members. I can still remember there was even a time that I cried so loudly because of some misunderstandings with my friend.
2007 is also a year of transition period for me. If you know me well, you'll know that I abhor changes and transition. To be honest, transferring from youth to tertiary and transiting from secondary school to poly wasn't easy at all. During that period of time, I do feel that God is so distant. And somehow I felt that no one really cared for me.
But thank God for Dawn, Celestine, Yuqian, Shuling, Jacqueline, YiHui, Limin, Hsiaoen, NYPB1 and again many more people out there who has always been encouraging me in times of need. Really appreciate each and everyone of you. Thank you for accepting me for who I am. All of you all have made my heart smile. :D
I'm also glad that I've made lots of new friends. Some of my new friends are very encouraging and supportive in whatever things that I'm going to do. Thank you 0701! Thank you Madeline, Sharon, Eileen, Jiayan, Idarh, Ivy, Peixian, Jace, Huizhen, Husna, Serene, Jessica, Meirong and basically everyone in the class la. All of you have taught me lots of things ever since poly started. Thank you!
I'm also really happy that I've managed to stay in contact with quite a number of my friends. Friends that are in my secondary school. Thank you Melissa, Michelle, Wanxin, Jasmine, Zishan and many more. But it's still sad that I haven't been meeting up with some of my secondary school classmates that I loved. But, I know they're doing well because we still do keep in contact through smses.
All in all, Thank you God! It's not an obligation to thank you. It's not because it is new year that's why I feel that I ought to thank you. But rather I really want to thank you from my heart.
Thank you God for
this life
not forsaking me when I needed you the most
not giving up on me when I fail you
all the love, grace and mercy that you've bestowed upon me
all the awesome friends that you've sent to my life
YOU. simply you. Sometimes, a thank you ain't enough. But still, Thank you Jesus!
This year I want to experience you in a greater measure. Experiencing you not by emotions or feelings but really knowing you for who you're. As what I've always said to you, transform me like how you've transformed other people. I guess this is what I really want in this 2008. Because when Jesus has transformed me from the inside out, everything changes, and all the aspects of my life will be like a set of jig saw puzzle that comes into place.
