Lost in thoughts

Looking back, moving forward...

Monday, December 31, 2012 making-sweetness

And once again, it is already the end of the year. The Mayans and Hollywood were wrong...the world doesn't end in 2012. Not that I believed them for a second.

Anyways, it's a habit of mine to blog about my year - whether this is a good practice or bad habit, I'm not too sure. Last year, I rambled mostly on the dramas I watched...but I'll do things slightly differently this year. Yes, I'll mumble on about what I watched, but I think my life in 2012 does deserve its own post, no matter how boring it was. It is like writing a journal anyway, most people write everything down, not just the interesting bits. ^^

Soooooooo....2012 was a year of high highs and low lows, kind of like a roller-coaster of emotions. Lest people think that I've got bipolar disorder, I better explain myself. Heh. Basically, whenever I'm walking close to God, everything seems good and manageable; but whenever I'm faraway from God, the same things seem so impossible and bleak. It's during those times when I feel the most lost and unsure about what-the-heck I'm doing with my life. Like am I really meant to be studying this? Or...is there really no way of restoring friendships back to the way it was? I still don't know the answers to these 'life questions', but this I know: That GOD is in charge of it all and He is faithful and true, so we can believe His promises written for us in the bible.

That's about all I'll talk about the low lows.

As for stuff that happened in 2012, honestly, nothing much happened in reality. Hahahahaha... I finished 3rd year of uni and decided to take the extra year to get an additional BSc (i.e. bachelor of science) degree. So far so good, I quite enjoy the research process and I've eliminated certain specialties that I don't wanna go into. During summer, I went back to Sg (as usual), did my electives there and had LOTS OF FUN hanging out with people, eating and shopping. Plus, I finally went to Universal Studios (before I get too old and scared of theme park rides), Gardens by the Bay, Sentosa Cove...and 3 weddings (好羡慕他们啊!!). Back in the UK for the new school year, I continued being pretty involved in church stuff and school stuff...but there's always time to play and do other stuff to relax!! Started experimenting more in the kitchen, like baking cookies, making desserts and trying out new dinner recipes. Also went on spontaneous trips to see live performances, like going to Edinburgh to see Phantom of the Opera AND going to London for the One-Night-Only CN BLUE CONCERT!!! (which reminds me--must finish writing part 2 of that post.)

Moving forward, fingers crossed about 2013 being a good year. Someone once said that if we fail to plan, we plan to fail...so here's a couple of goals for 2013:
- Pass the freaking driving test and get that elusive license
- Reach the ideal weight target and be healthier
- Get at least a 2nd upper this year
- Revise anat & physio to be prepared to tackle Y4
- Spend at least an hr a day in QT and continue to be active in church stuff
- Get outta the house and engage with people more

Looks like another mountain to climb for 2013...xD
