Scram, '09, make way for twenty-ten.

The last of the first day of school is tomorrow.

My cousins and I had several sleepovers for the past 2 months and it worries me how fast we grow up. When telling your other cousins your own stories to update that "little kid" image of you they have in their mind. I kid you not, when I heard my cousins tell me about some things, that "little kid" image was wiped clean, and out comes a teenager.

Recently, Joo Lee and Jamin went for their Form 5 Prom, they just graduated. In 1 years time, someone of my generation is getting married. In 2 months time, someone is going back to college. In 5 years time, many of my generation will be off studying in other countries. In 10-15 years time, I could get married.

When will we ever have sleepovers again? When we're 30?

Time for me to buck up and '09 to fuck off. I hated '09, probably the bad on my part, but still, it sucked.

Probably one of my worst years, in terms of academical improvement. My mom suggested that I went over to the Chan's to study together with them, after the few times I studied with them at sleepovers, it was always very good. And, I agree with her, I should go more often.

Non-academical on the other hand, has never been better.

This year, through OB, I have learned more about overcoming fears, more than anything else. You do have to overcome your fear, when your only way down, is by a rope and your fate lies in your own hands. The only way to release tension (and fear) was probably for me to shout "Diu lo".

Physically, this is the best I've been in my 16 years of life. And hrough the inter-fighting in my circle of friends, I have learned to leave them alone and not take sides when its between 2 good friends.

Help a man, he could be your best friend for the day. Shun the other and he could be your enemy for the year.

Developed lots of good friends this year, from Outward Bound, normal friends from school getting "Up-ed" to good friends. Some people this year, had me channeling all my negativity towards them as they were pissing everyone off.

And to some people here and there, sorry I had to lie to you. It was for the greater good, that, I shit you not. The lies I made was to prevent you from attending our outings, parties, whatever. These people, the only way to describe them would be "asshole".

Hopefully 2010 would be a little more merciful to everyone, in terms of the financial crisis and whatnots.
