happy new year~

now it's 2006 :)
a new beginning...

2006 will be my last year in sn. also my last year in band. hehe.
i will savour every moment i slog at sn this year..., from the 4D classroom to bandroom.
i will appreciate every moment i spend in sn. be it bad or good, i know everything comes to an end and forms a memory.

i think this will be my last 7 months or so playing in band, playing the clarinet as i doubt i will want to ever join band again. after that band will just be a mere memory to me.

so much has happened in band. look at year 2005 and notice how much my life was revolved around band. all i had in mind was band, band and more band. the gold that our badge got will remain in the snsb history. our band was revived on 2005 after 13 years. it is certainly a moment worth remembering... i can remember exactly how i felt that time... tears of joy and relief proliferate the moment the results were announced. we screamed, cheered and shouted. the feeling was immense. but i "quitted" band ever since. i've reach what i want, and i'm done with it. now is the time to step forward to proceed on with life to do other things. i realise how much i have neglected my studies and homework. and to me then, it was all worth it - for the sake of band. thinking back now, i still think it's worth it. i gave my best but once as an experience is more than enough for me. i dont wish to dedicate my life to the band.

i have sort of completed my cca record. achieving an A2, hopefully an A1 next year. though it's not much of a difference. i worked for 2 days this year. blearghs. actually more than that... i worked for 2 days as waitress and earned peanuts - 20 dollars. and i worked for my uncle for few hours, and i earned 50 dollars. like whoa. that's what i call salary. haha. ok but enough of all these... i dont want to spend my teen years working. i have plenty of chance to do that in the future. i can do that for the next 40 yrs of my life.

i want my teenage life to be fulfilling yet i dont know what to do. NYAA is too exp a thing to do. i mean i really wont mind if someone is there to subsidise my jap/french lessons otherwise it's impossible to get my skill done. so my as well just dont attempt the whole thing.
haha but i took up tennis lessons. initially for the sports section of NYAA, now well.. it's just for interest, fun sake. and i love my tennis lessons a lot. so i guess that sort of adds some joy to my life. anyway it's always good to learn new things. yep. next time i'll learn cooking... learn to bake cookies :D

there's a high possibility i might be going europe next year. of course i want. i mean it's cool to travel to far away countries when you're just a teen. and i like travelling a lot.. cause you get to see and learn a lot of new stuff. each time i travel to different countries, i'm always amazed. haha maybe i'm an easily amazed person. okay..
in sec one i went japan and experience the hot spring. yes, i was so determine to go to the hotspring *_* my aunts were pretty shy about it. but come'on i dont get to go Japan everyday. it's either i try now or maybe i'll never get the chance again. so i got up at 5am.... just to get to the hotspring. and i went tokyo disneyland. Disneyland is a must go kind of thing. yeah, the atmosphere there is simply great.
this year i went USA which has been my dream since p3. i saw niagara falls - one of the seven wonders...the waterfall is really breathtaking like when you're there, the air is super fresh and cooling making you feel refreshed and energised. . and i went new york city. basically, it's really satisfying to go USA. a place where all asians should at least visit once. although most of the stuff there can be read in books, its really amazing and nice to see it real life. yup.

i must say 2005 year is an eventful year. loads of things happened. loads of things change. whatever changes it was, i believe i have adapted to it quite well, cause i'm getting on with life pretty well.
biggest change would probably be my perspective towards band as it affects a lot of things, such as my circle of friends,... etc. and some of the other changes are like my sis change bf. haha.. not that it really concerns me whether her bf is kum or ki. but i must say ki is a much better person. hoho...

i hope 2006 will be a good year for me ^__^
and good year for sis and ki <3
and of course everyone else :D
