it's 2008.

first entry of 2008. felt some sort of excitement about the new year at first, then it just completely died down.

jun you're SORELY missed.=( i always had you to spend these special days with. now i'm all alone. i was the only person at home when the clock struck 12. very pessimistically, i was even thinking this might be the case in many years to come. but at least i managed to video call you!=)

and bro was going crazy just now. i seriously dun understand why he throws such tantrums. we just possess very different personalities, i may like to drag things, but dun you know you are imposing your own routines on me which are completely infringing on my freedom? and by imposing your views on people, you are, too, being super domineering.

the more i think about it, the angrier i get seriously.

anw, shall do a rather brief recap of 2007. it's filled with mainly downs. things like my family's reaction to my As results, increase in my own weight, and starting of uni life have made quite huge impact in my life. but emotionally, i'm still an empty shell. and i'm not just talking about relationship aspect.

it was a very fast year. things were super different. we were no longer sheltered as we transitted from jc students wearing uniform to school everyday to working individuals for a few months, and then to students again, this time round much more independent and left to fight for our own stuff. must learn to grow up very quickly during this period, cos if not, you will be the one who loses out. i guess being away from school for so long emptied my social network, and it was during this period that i realised i only have THAT few true friends. and somehow, it made me rather emotionally unstable too.

i really hope 2008 will be a better year for me. and that some of my wishes will come true. but somehow my luck seems to only stop at a very limited level. sigh.
