Reflections and Resolutions
It’s the year 2005 and yet another year has passed. Every new year promises new hopes and a new start and every new year everyone will be making their new year resolutions and then not fulfilling it even when the whole decade has passed.Since it’s a tradition I thought maybe I should make one too. I really pondered hard and deep but yet I couldn’t think of anything I would like to improve in my life. Just in case you people think I am lacking in ambition and had no heart to improve myself, well, you may be just right. Don’t you people find it tiring to constantly compare yourself to other people and then setting targets to do this and that but yet half of the things you promise never get delivered?
To me being happy is just good enough. As of now, I am perfectly contented with everything in my life and is not really looking for anything more (although there is a little wish I had that I will strike the 10 million toto draw in the coming new year, just a little wish.) .
Ok on a more realistic front, the only hurdle right is front of me is the final semester of my poly education. As much as I don’t want it to end since schooling is the most fun of your life, I would certainly want to graduate together with my classmates. Furthermore, I am not getting young anymore and I think it’s time to work and contribute to my family instead of my family contributing to me. Let’s hope that I will pass my remaining modules and pass the dreaded FYP, also known as FUCK YOU! PROJECT????
Personally 2004 has been an enriching and great year for me. The highlight of 2004 was certainly the trip to India. There was really something I will remember for a long long time.
As for still being single at a tender age of 21, let’s just say that I am single but not really available (not as if there are any takers anyway). The only bother was the nagging of my increasingly paranoid mother who always think that I am currently in love and kept urging me to bring her home.
Dear dearest mother, even though I know you will never ever read nor understand this since you are still learning your ABCs, how can I convince you the joy of being single and the advantages that comes together with it? Do you know how troublesome it is to always constantly report where you are going and always trying to make time for your half even though you know you sometimes would rather use that time for something else?
NoNoNo..this is something you will never ever understand since you are already happily attached to my beloved father for the past 20 odd years with an additional bonus of a cute, lovely, intelligent, wonderful, brilliant and filial son. Don’t worry Mum. I promise I will bring her home when I have got one, ok? Just be patient. Erm…I mean very very patient. Since I don’t think it is going to happen in the near future.
2004 has certainly been blackened by the recent disaster. So many innocent lives have been taken and it is really heart wrenching to read the newspaper everyday and seeing all the damages it has done. Let’s all hope that 2005 will be a good year without any wars nor natural disasters.

You got that right regarding the FYP. Just hope we all can happily graduate this semester! =D
From your book, Struggle with life for 21 years, and Yet Standing Tall, Chapter 2, page 37, para 10, line 45, you mentioned: "to be a better and changed man this sem/year". I guess all of us are still trying hard to do that. Haha procastinating rox. =x World Peace~~
