Christmas is lurking around the corner once again. New Year's coming. All of a sudden, the year is coming to an end. Hmm. this year. what can i say. it is a year of great ups and downs. havent exactly been the best year of the last 21 years. neither has it been the worst. there are many things to be really thankful for. many people to be grateful for. there are many things that need to be reexamine and ponder about. ways to be changed, attitudes to be altered. to be extremely frank, Christmas aint exactly the best time of the year for me. in fact, i generally feel extremely depressed during this period. in fact, i kinda hate Christmas. what a wet blanket i know. but i do feel that way most of the time during festive periods. it aint nice to have to spend such a cosy festival by yourself anyway. i dont know if i will be alone this year, but by the looks of it. yeah i will be so. anyway, a time for reflection i say is due.
The Musks - thanks firstly, (esp sam and josh) for bringing me back to Church, that really meant a lot and your constant refusal to let me slip away. i definitely had a lot of fun with all five of you. Thanks John for keeping me sane most of the time. Jake for all your craziness. Driel, what can i say, sushi trips were fun. Thanks for the green hair doll.
The IJ Girls - have to admit i havent been the greatest or the best of coaches this season. It has been a rough ride for all of us in one way and another. Thanks for being so understanding all the time with my crazy schedule and all your caring and thoughtful ways. I would be lying if i said that i didnt enjoy my time with you gals. You gals are the best man. Seriously, i wont have it any other way. Char and Van, Good Luck and All the best for your JC career. Hope you will get to the school you want for next year. Al and Val, hahah what else can i say, it has been 2 years watching you guys grow from juniors to seniors. The team is now is your hands take care of them yeah. Sham, gill and sandesh, there is still a long long way to go and more things to learn, but well we'll learn together as a team and we can only grow stronger. the sec ones, haha in time to come, we will get to know each other better yeah and i am certain with such fun loving seniors, you will have a swell time in debates.
The Barker Boys - a trying year huh. but nonetheless fun i would say. i am glad at the improvements you guys have put in. the passion that the sec ones have is something that has been missing for a while in the club. keep it going. Blias, Yinli, E Jin the ball is now is your court and it is your turn to lead your juniors. it isnt an impossible task to do you know. your seniors did it, really use them as role models. haha.
Paul, David, Terence, Auyong, Rachel - i dont know how to term you guys, but you guys are kinda like my surrogate siblings. hahah haventn been able to really keep in touch with you guys, you have busy schedules most of the time. but i am sure you guys have been fine, over the past few months. do take care of yourselves and dont overwork too much. i am and always been extremely appreciative of the friendship you guys have shown. thank you ever so much.
Cow, Hiutung - Many thanks for the fabulous birthday surprise yeah. it was really sweet of you guys. many thanks for the many other things you guys have done for me and the rest of them. i know many times we dont really seem appreciative of the things you do, but really and truly we are extremely grateful for such wonderful friends like you.
Fairy, Christine, Weilin, Vicky ,Rebecca - i cant say that i really know you guys as well as the rest, but i am sure of one thing, you gals are just as great as anyone of them! =)
Anisah, Karima, Ruhnayy - friends after so many years. we have been through so many different things together and alone. two more years i say, and we would have spent half our lifetime together. how long is that man. this friendship will last till the end of time yeah.
Marky, Luke - my one and only, you are decidedly the worst one and only any gal can have. but YET, i love you!!! hahahah Luke, it has been great knowing you and having you as a friend. definitely added more colour and laughter to my otherwise mundane and lifeless varsity time.
On the other hand, miche should be less ridiculous, reckless, hotheaded, impetuous,nonchalant about the things she does... miche wishes all of you a merry Christmas and a Happy New Year in advance.
remember, thank God and keep Him in your heart always.
May the Lord bless all of you for the coming year.
