Goodbye 2012

2012 you have been an outstanding year!

Apart from the not so nice things (turning 23 years old), there was a whole ton of fun to be had. I didn't cry as much as I did this year as compared to last year I think... Well, at least not over bad things that happened to me. 

This year I travelled a lot to different countries and neighbourhoods. 

Facebook tells me that I've made over 200 new acquaintances and/or friends. 

But do all these things really matter to me at the end of the day?

I look back upon 2012 and its fond memories with a tinge of sadness not because I didn't have more time to do the things I wanted to, but because I suddenly feel as if all these things are just so insignificant. 

One day our time will be up. We'll die and move on from this world. I don't know exactly what I'm trying to say here, but I guess to sum it up in a word, I'm feeling GRATEFUL to be alive. 

Alive for the whole of 2012. 

Thank you God, thank you! 

Weeks Around Christmas

In between studying and sleeping, I haven't really been staying home much. Below are just some photos to show what I've been up to recently. 

Skated to Woodlands Waterfront after a few months hiatus. 

Haven't seen them in a while because of the rainy season!

Went biking with DDR friends.

We skated from Bukit Timah to Woodlands. 

Lepak (lay around) there for a while to rest my sore behind... 

Met Alverina and Chen Xi to watch Amanda's church musical. 

It was really funny and entertaining!

Christmas eve dinner with ham on the plate... Yummy... 

Family at House of Bread for Christmas Eve. 

Tonight marks the last night that Timezone will be in operation in Cineleisure. As of December 26th, they will be permanently shutting down. 

For the past two months or so, Timezone Cineleisure has become my favourite weekend night haunt. I spent so many hours there perspiring on the DDR machine that I can't help but feel miserable that they're closing.

Guess this is it... 

You gave me many fond memories of laughter, fun and new friends. I will always remember you as the place where I first learned to play DDR properly! 

Update

Hmm... Once again, I've been slacking off with blogging, mainly because I don't have Internet connection in my room and I no longer go to work on a daily basis. 

Since I left my last job, I've been spending my time studying for exams, playing DDR, going to church and just hanging out with friends. I even spent a few days in China with my dad visiting relatives. You know, I thought I would really enjoy the trip there, but instead I spent most of the time studying for an exam. Such is life!

Christmas and New Year's Eve is almost upon us, and once again, I'm asking myself the same old question: what is it that I want to do this year before the time has passed? 

To be honest, the answer is nothing. 

2012 was an absolutely amazing and fun year so I don't feel like I left any stone unturned. 

I'm too lazy to write more right now, so... That's about it for today.
