the leaders' retreat was good, i got to know many many more people from the other youth groups in church. AND i got to bond more with my friends from my own group, like germaine, clara, amanda and atricia.. and kenneth and louis. even though i didn't talk to them all that much, heheh..
this year has been a fantastically stressful yet fun year for me. maybe it was being in a youth group, having such a close group of friends both in school and in church, or just having people to look after. i'm glad to have so many friends and teachers who walked through this year with me.. alvina, alyba, andrea, joanne, brenda, fiona, peihsin, huiteng, ms ho, mdm tan, mrs ngin, mdm hassan, mrs kong, jac, roy, marianne, cassie, rebecca, amongst the many many who have impacted my life. thanks all so much.
i just realized i don't have a picture of my family. like, a RECENT picture of my family. shucks. this year, i've had the most ups and downs with you all. even though you probably'll never read this, just wanna thank you for the most wonderful christmas i've had for years. the best family time we ever had for AGES. the unwrapping presents part. i'm sorry for not doing my best, and for not being to find a connection with you guys at all, sometimes. i hope next year will be better (: 'cos pawpaw's gonna be back.

thanks ihmyc, for being the bestest youth group around! (: and cheers to a fantastic year ahead.
thanks guas, for being with me even though i was cranky. especially alvina, sharing weal and woe with me. i'm really sad that we're all in different schools (k fine, huiteng and peihsin together in mj, drea alyba and bren together in tj and me and alvie are all alone in ny and cj) but do keep in touch k! if not i'm gonna smack you all!
kids, i REALLY REALLY miss you! haha, eldest kid in yellow needs me.. got boy problems right? HEHEH. sticker blue kid and stalker for 12 years, i'll miss being in the same school as you.. maybe by some stroke of luck i'll suddenly wanna go tj? XD and the last kid, who isn't in this picture, must start doing homework and stop sleeping huh! heehee. i'll miss smacking you and waking you up.. family friends (the two pinkies at the side), i'm not really VERY close to you guys, but i'll still miss you! clever bums, one tj one vj huh.. SMARTIES! (:
next year's gonna be weirdly fun and difficult. so many more things to do, but so much less time. heavier involvement in church, and pawpaw's gonna be back. and its fallen to me to spend more time with her, with mom, and make the two of them, ESPECIALLY pawpaw, feel happy and contented. i'm restarting my classes, and i'm going to have to find time to meet my fellow guas. i hope that next year will be just as fruitful as this, and i'll live through it.
thanks to everyone for the wonderful memories.
