Happy New Year!

great fulfilling year. let's recap 2008...


events:
1)NYJC
that pae period was cool. really honeymoon. i pon the lessons i dont like, didnt really do tutorials. but thank God the friends i made there are really guai and smart people. hahaha. i played touch rugby there too! =p

2)JJC
begining was still honeymoon. then the stress kicked in. well, there was a period where i dread sch so so much, i was afraid to step into sch. i'll never forget that feeling man. but my gracious God brought me through and now i know, i'm doing this for a far greater purpose.

3)Camps
camps are awesome. serious. tiring, a lil too much commitment, but fun. great friends, great campers, great experience.

4)Promos
woah. that crazy period. honestly, i didnt study hard. really. but i seriously thank God that my results are not that bad. no exemption, but no need to retake any papers. no top in class, but what more can i expect when i dont study hard.

5)YI Camp and X'mas Bash
i've been doing really little this year. didnt go for set-ups. but i did different roles, a lil more sounds now. quite cool being the sound operator for x'mas bash. i did the sound effects! kinda lag at times, but still, a learning experience. 
YI camp this year is just amazing. it's been a really long long time since i've hear God so clearly. i think i'm being transformed. i no longer feel that kind of really high passion. instead, it's those that you're convicted by the Holy Spirit. you just know it, you dont have to feel it. indescribable. 

people:
1)Ziyi, Zhiyu
hahaha. they are people i can always talk to. crap, jokes, rants, secrets, etc. i can tell them anything and everything under the sun!

2)Cellgroup
cellgroup had grown. not in size, but in the way we act, talk, maturity. i dont really know how to describe, but you can see the change, a positive change. and cellgroup is definately one group of people i look forward to seeing at the end of every week.

3)Media
was it this year we had our media retreat? yea. it's cool. media people are nice. kena a lil more from muen this year, but well, it's kinda my bad. nice bunch to hang out, have fun with.

4)Calista, Huiting, Evan, MichelleNg, MichelleLo
these 5 oikos girls are people i like to hang out with. we dont get to meet often, but they've been around for me. when times are bad, i know they are a group of friends i can turn to. how do put it? i dont really know. but this kind of friends are hard to come by, and i just thank God i'm blessed with them.

5)Luwei
how can i forget him when he thanked me on his blog. yea, it's amazing how God answered his prayer. luwei ever prayed that we can be good friends. and our prayer-answering God answered his prayer. definately a friend i enjoy sitting down and talk with. i remember that time we played guitar and talk. so cool. we were no guitar pros, but i enjoyed his company.

6)JingWei, Mindy, Esther, Liyuan, Jieying, Gabriel, Muxin
i dont really hang out much with that gang now, but i sure did enjoy when i do hang out with them. =)

7)Weehuat
cool teacher. not much teaching this year. but always liked talking to him

8)Gideon Ren
i like talking to him. he taught me so so much. thanks Gideon!

9)Gideon Choo
i've been talking a lot with him this year, unexpected huh. i didnt expect it myself. great dad, funny problems, and i like making fun of him with you-know-who. hahaha. thanks dad!

10)Wei Shun, Varma
they are people i've not been talking to, but people i can freely share to. thanks for being around to hear me out this year. =)

11)08s02
going through the year together is kinda cool. studying together, crapping together. a lil unhappy-ness sometimes, but well, a great bunch of people to hang out with. like in the chalet. i definately enjoyed myself.

12)Peishing, Winnie, Bernie, Yixuan, Zhaomian
great friends to tide me thru the year. what will i do without them. i'll probably die in JJ. hee!

13)Chengyong
cool friend. it's kinda weird how we got close. hahha. all thanks to me? well, we dont really talk, but when we do, we sure can talk quite a lot. did share with him. and especially when we're in different lecture groups and many of our breaks clashes, there are a lot of stuffs i can borrow from him when i forget to bring stuffs and such. hee!!

14)n_n
i'm sorry i dont appear in a lot of our outings. sundays! family days! sorry! but well, they are definitely a group of people i never wanna lose contact with. thanks for you guys' great company.

15)Chongxiang
also a friend i never wanna lose contact with. great friend. love to catch up with him. nice study partner too. haha. thanks dude. =)

16)Rebecca Kan, Joel Lew
hahah. thanks for.. yea.. you get it. hahaha. this period... but it's ending. i'll probably bug you guy less now. heehee!!


i've named quite a fair bit, but there's still more to go. 

most importantly, my all-amazing, all-powerful God who tide me through my difficult times, dance with  me through my happy times, and provide peace in confusing times. what would i do without Him. i can never, never ever, imagine life without Him. thank God for the people who crossed my path, thank God for my always-supportive family, thank God for cellgroup, media, etc. thank God thank God!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
