2008 reflection...

i don't really feel like sleeping... again. >__< it's so bad too cause i was so tired from a really long day but OH WELL. i just realized that today is the last day of 2008, although it really doesn't feel like it.. HOW TIME PASSES SO FAST.. so i thought it would be appropriate to take this time while i'm not doing anything anyway.. to reflect on how this year has been. although this year has been full of interesting things i think it's actually been less.. dramatic than 2007/2006.. i also have to pull memories from before the summer and even back to Jan 2008 and that is hard so i'm really basing a lot of these generalizations on recent occurrences (i.e. this school year). I think it's always nice to look back and reflect and realize how much wiser you've become and how i have learnt from my mistakes, while still failing a lot.. but still better :) it's kind of hard to reflect and generalize... i see 2008 in 3 chunks... the 07-08 school year (i.e. before the summer break), the summer break, and this 08-09 school year so far.
- The first section was interesting i suppose haha. it really pushed me to learn from my experiences, to try and not make the same mistakes, and i think a time of pretty good spiritual life.. i had a lot of support from school friends and it was really nice, and i think i miss that so maybe that should be one of those new years resolutions keke. I guess since it's been awhile, all the stuff that happened is not a big deal anymore, which is nice, i already have enough to think about now! but as far as i can remember now, i didnt end that year on such a bad note. i had a lot of good times and lots of fun
- but probably not as much fun as i had in the summer. Summer was probably one of my best summers ever. Softball started off my summer amazingly and my social life was reallyyy alive. I felt like I had tons of people to hang out with and even over in Asia like in Korea with Namjin and Ryan and then in HK where a lot of people met up and that was sweeet. plus even when i didn't have anyone to hang out with i loved going out shopping and just walking around on the streets. i love hk T__T i also hung out with dan and got to know his friends and that was nice. FIREWORKS. crystal too, i'm so glad i'm still good friends with herrr <3 and coming back from asia was absolutely amazing with more SOFTBALL. although i felt like this year i missed out on hanging out/we just didn't hang out as much, it was still amazing. I could go on.. but i shouldn't. it was basically amazing
- this school year has been.. also amazing. WELL i got quite a good mark. although not reflective of my top 6 but it's still a nice accomplishment.. unfortunately everything is going by so fast i'm a little sad since it is my last year in highschool/at UTS. i'm a little sad though that i made the most friends with other grades in my last year... cause i'm just going to be sad to leave them when i have to go haha but always gotta move on.. but yeah i've just been getting to know new people and i love them they are amazing. i just get so much joy from meeting cool people. it's really been full of laughter more than anything, not saying no times of unhappiness, but i've been enjoying it really almost to the fullest. i also love getting to know people again, it just makes me so happy O_o although university apps are just really ..ajsdkfa right now.. i've been having a blast. (aljfa lotsa work/stress coming though!)
WELL i guess all i can really say about this year is that it's been GREAT and i can only be grateful for that (hehe) it's too bad i realized it so late but better late than never (not "lei doh ho gwoh say" lol) i should be more thankful for everything that happens... i feel like i'm going to be making a lot of these new years resolutions =S darn. well i'm glad i'm spending the last highschool new years eve with probably my closest hs friend, who i was tightest with in gr 8 but it kind of went up and down but despite the times apart, we were good enough friends to still be able to be good friends even after time apart. MUST END THIS YEAR OFF WITH A BANG and by bang i just mean positivity. Being unconfident and stressed out gets me negative so easily.. i should work on that too.. it sounds lame like "be positive!" but i honestly think if you want to have fun and be happy, a lot of it comes from your own take on things and if youre not positive about it..how do you expect to be happy... hmmm byebye 2008, welcome 2009... omgosh i'm graduating hahah
