I was just surfing around other people’s blogs and everyone has posted something about the new year. So I shall do the same…

Usually, I can’t be bothered to reflect on the year and so on because it doesn’t take a new year to reflect on things. It should be a constant thing. To me, it is technically not possible to go by an entire year, 365 days, without reflecting and evaluating yourself, situations, issues, etc. So every Dec 31st is like any other day. Just that the day after, when you write the date, the year is different. Ohh I forgot! There’s fireworks on the 31st, so that’s enjoyable, but everything else stays the same. You don’t miraculously become smarter, wiser, issue-free, better looking, thinner, richer, etc.

Despite that, I have decided to reflect upon ’06 because it’s a huge year for me. Here’s why…

2006

Dance:
I was part of ensemble for a year. Notice the word ‘was’. Yes, I’m not a part of them anymore, unfortunately. I am honoured to have been a part of 2 of their concerts though. I attempted to publicise the bigger scale one by getting up in front of my entire (sick) class, which scared the living daylights out of me. I had back-to-back items, which almost killed me. But what was important was I learnt a lot about myself as a dancer. Fabulous group but I’m just not right for them, so I’m on a dance holiday now.

I took part in 3 concerts. 2 with ensemble and one with SAJC. I liked that SA one, it's always a pleasure to dance with all my SA friends

I met Wei Qin, Clara, Yuen Ling, Hui Yi and Hui Ching, along with other unpleasant humans

Freaked out about my studies in Sem 2

Took the triangle plate down

Crashed my car

Plunged in and out of depression

Fell in love with MUSE

Started to wear a lot of black

Found a whole new passion for music

Bought a keyboard

Discovered the beauty of Starbucks

That's all I can remember for now. But wow! Looks like 2006 was a great year, don’t you think? Haha. Nah… It was really bad, my worst year yet. Let’s hope it stays that way. There are a lot of adjustments in ’06, many issues I had to deal with and I am still dealing with them. I’m really glad it’s over actually and it’s comforting to know that ’07 will definitely be different but better. I'm hoping for it not to be as crazy as '06. And it helps that the MUSE concert is in Jan because it will be a rocking good way to start the new year!

2007

I’m looking forward to…
