Bye 2008!As I am waiting for my FYP teammates in school library, I start to think and reflect back the things that I did and etc etc...
Indeed it's a fruitful yet challenging year for me because I faced lots of tough times, times where I feel like giving up, times where I had to suffer a lot..
Reflecting back on my school life, it's a very fruitful journey for me not just in Year 2008, but the whole of 3 years of RP life as it is coming to a end for me before I enter my next phase of my life.... which is N.S..
How I wish I can rewind myself to 3 years back and experience it again and again, but yea, once it has past, means it has past, and will never come back again... What I can do is just to treasure all my poly friends and spend more time with them especially to my closer ones..
Reflecting back on my life as a bus enthusiast, this year it has been a challenging one for me, especially after our 1st bus enthusiasts cell group is formed with some of the Christian bus enthusiasts. Conflicts and misunderstandings happening everywhere, from SGforums to MSN to face-to-face, all I have seen before (but thank God I don't have any conflicts with them, and I don't wish that to happen to me). Flame wars can be seen every month especially in SGforums and some of the bus enthusiasts starting to gang up together and deal with some other particular bus enthusiasts that they hate it to the core... All these things I have seen it all..
On the positive side, I have also helped in the organizing committee in organizing activities for the fellow bus enthusiasts to come and enjoy and at the same time, to foster stronger bondings among one another and to get to interact with more bus enthusiasts that they don't know. Things that I have helped out are activities such Amazing Race and the farewell tour for the various very old buses that are going to scrap in a few months' time. It's not easy to organize and make the activities a success..
Reflecting back on my Christian walk of life, I also faced lots of ups and downs, especially at the point of time when I told my parents that I have decided to be a Christian and to go for church service every Sunday morning and I just cried and cried at that night after I got scolded and threatened upside down...
But on the positive side, God has blessed me with lots of things, and I love my cell group (E447) so much because they really take care of me well, being the 2nd youngest (IIRC) member in my cell group.. In my spiritual walk, at times (I think is most of the time??) I negliect God so much that at times I don't treat Him seriously...
In Year 2009, I hope that things really start to change for the better, in all areas of my life...
In a few days' time, I am going to finish setting all my goals and resolution for Year 2009, and I really pray and hope that whatever new challenges that I am going to face it, I will overcome it with FAITH and not FEAR.... =)
Before ending this post, I wanna wish everyone here a Happy New Year 2009 and all the best in your future goals and dreams and every part in your life!! ^_^
