that *wretched* new year's eve post.
...and lastly, i will try to blog more often.
-----
Starting a post with the line which was supposed to end it. the entry, and the year.
2005, summed up in a word, for me would be groundbreaking. Or heartbreaking. Well, something certainly didn't remain in one piece.
But it wasn't neccesarily all bad.
I won't recap the year's hottest events and news from around the world. That I leave to the
pros.
I won't even lament or elaborate on the broken bits. Just to summarise, I fell short of some of my goals. Like losing weight, or meeting my conditional offer, or keeping my room clean. Got my heart entangled in a relationship too many. You know, that old nutshell. Can't say much, otherwise I won't have enough fresh material for my autobiography, due quite a long while from now. heh. But I don't feel too bad. I mean, I know
some football clubs who are feeling much worse than i do.
(speaking of which, lets take a mental detour. There are quite a few clubs who share the affectionate moniker by being called the "REDS'' or the "BLUES" which can be quite confusing. sure, it seems they have different nicknames when they are faced with opponents dressed in the same hue. but can't they have a permanent colour-inspired tag? like maybe 'the cranbarries' for arsenal? or maybe be more specific, like 'teal', 'ultramarine', 'beryl', 'azure', 'maroon', 'scarlet', 'magenta' and the more locally flavoured 'biji saga'. Personally, I think this will single-handedly help revive the Premiership to its glory days as the most watched exciting league in the world.
FA, you might want to look into this.)
But it doesn't mean I have nothing to show for the past 12 months. I have grown to learn more about myself more in this ending year than I have uhm, in the first 12 months of my life. But really. I never knew I had three legs. If it weren't for that incident back in April...
But
really, really. I think I am still pretty well off cause I have super cool friends. They're here through the good times and the bad. And I really can't thank them enough for being here, there, everywhere. And that's what I'm really trying to say. This post isn't about my new year's resolution (but i'm trying to fit it in wherever possible. Ooh, there's a space right there.). Nor solely about my hopes and regrets. They're about my friends. And that I love them very very much.
Regrets of 2005? only ones I can remedy. like not keeping in touch with my friends enough. wait, no one's uhm, permanently uncontactable through mortal means yet right? heh heh.
There are a few emails I haven't replied. A few phonecalls. Heck even a few testies, for you friendster addicts. Don't think I'm ignoring you. I'm sorry if I've seemed distant. I'm just. lazy. heh. But that will all change come the new year (Yep, there's a resolution, fitted in quite seamlessly, eh? I'm not really a listy-list person)
Here's the proverbial glass raised, to my friends. Couldnt have gotten through the year without you. I congratulate you on your fortunes, I sympthise with your misfortunes. (another way of saying, I share your joys and sorrows, but classier. you dont think so?) May 2006 bring you happiness and contentment. I pray our paths will continue to intertwine. Cheers. =)
