MeMoRiEs oF 2006

It's not easy to adapt back to your normal everyday lifestyle after being out of your country for a few weeks. Believe me, it's damn true as i've just experienced it myself. I mean it's been a week since i'm back home in this "boring country", yet i sometimes feel as though i'm like still having my hols, not in the mood to do anything. It's like as though my body is over here but my heart isn't, which anyway is quite true though cos someone’s not by my side. This past few days have been quite hectic for me, settling my school matters, then followed by attending classes and going to work. Gosh, damn freaking tiring, but for the sake of my future, i know i've to bear with all this shit.

As i uploaded all the countless pics which i took during my hols, images of all the things which took place last yr flashed across my mind. Well, what can i say. Afterall, the year 2006 has been a year full of ups and downs in my life. It started badly but ended up in good fashion. Seriously, looking back on all the things which happened just makes me wonder what would my life be right now if that incident had never ever happen. If only i did not do that "thing" which would have caused me so many repercussions later on. Did i regret my actions? Well.. Probably yes and no i guess. Anyway as i reminisced bout events that took place last yr, i realised that a whole hell lot of things had occurred.

I started the year in great fashion as i ORDied, meaning i left the army after 2 long years. Though i still reckon it's a waste of time, but overall i've seriously learnt many things from it. To celebrate my life back as a civillian, i went to bangkok for a short holiday with a group of ppl whom i've lost contact with already. Haiz. Sad case rite? What followed up would probably have an impact in my life forever i reckon. That period in my life whereby i would never ever forget. I lost someone that was very important to me and i couldn't take it. I even fell into depression at one stage but luckily i managed to recover from it. Looking back, i'm really quite silly at that point of time, knowing from the start that it wasn't worth all my actions yet i still went all out to try to salvage the situation, changing into an entirely different person in the process. Someone so scary that even till today I’m still shell shocked by all the actions that I had done. In the end, i got hurt time and time again. Fortunately i had a group of people in my life that stood by me, supported me and made me stood up on my feet all over again. Without them, i guess there wouldn't be this person writing all these bullshit over here now. Thanks fellas! You know who u guys are. I really appreciate everything that u guys did for me from the bottom of my heart. That past experience had probably turned me into the guy i am today and helped shaped my future for the better as i've really learnt many valuable lessons, which no amount of money can buy.

Worked at nokia after leaving the army, of which i made many new friends, wonderful ppl like Novi, Dylan, Suzy, Diana, Summer etc. I was also being introduced into a new religion, christianity at around that same time, and in the end, accepted christ, to the shock of many of my peeps as i was once an anti-christ. Haha. Went to City Harvest Church and stuffs, all thanks in large part to the influence of my beautiful neighbour Mel. Recalled and enjoyed all the outings we had, CG sessions, outings, blading together. So many wonderful memories which I have of them. I also went back to my studies, taking up a course at TMC academy in business. Befriended a few guys, whom turned out to be my buddies in the end. Wonderful guys like Val, Jack, Eugene etc. Though my first sem when by with a blink of an eye, but there were certainly many dramatic events which took place in our lives. Some of the few incidents which I vividly remember would be those that Yvonne was in it, the ones with “ah lian”, Jeff and Val. Though I’m not very close to her, but I sincerely hoped that she has changed for the better and wish her all the best in whatever she does in the future. All in all, I’m very happy to be able to know and make so many friends last year, people like Jasper, Tong Long, Bettina, Deborah, Hazel, Alvin etc. Sorry if I left out any names cos there were simply too many already. Oh ya, how could I ever forget my so-called pal, the beautiful Pris. Haha! My clubbing kaki as she was the one who indirectly influenced me to go back to my clubbing lifestyle. So many great and happening memories together with her, like Halloween for instance. Will forever remember that night for a few reasons. Thanks anyway for being by my side that day. Anyway, besides meeting new friends, 2006 was also the year whereby I regained back many of my “lost” friends, people like Stella, Evelyn, Theresa and of cos XiaoJie. What could I ever say bout her? After all the things which I did to her, she was still the one who stood by me throughout the darkest period of my life. At times I really wonder why did I ever gave up on her in the past. Till today, if there’s one thing which I’ve ever regretted doing, then it probably would be hurting her so deeply in the past. Last but not least, would have to be meeting that special someone in my heart. Seriously, as I said over at my last post, she’s just simply magnificent. Really thank god for bringing her into my life, allowing me to enjoy the last few moments of the year with her. After all the problems that I encountered throughout the year, just the thought of being with her, let alone the actual fact of us together, was able to bring a wide smile out of my face and made me realised that all the misery which I experienced was worth it. That’s probably how I would sum up the year 2006 in my life. Anyway, did something below to recap all the memories of 2006. Enjoy guys!!!
