Lets take off and FLY!

First post for the new year. 2009. Another year gone by and i wonder what's installed for me and all of us.

2008 had been a very interesting year. Many funny moments with ali, the band settling down, poly life and the friends that come with it and my passion for photography raging more rapidly as ever.

Thank you Alicia for being so wonderful and being what you're good at, which is being retarded. You take care of me so tenderly when i'm sick. Sing the smurf's theme song for me when we're bored. Make retarded face for me to imitated me. And most importantly, you support everything that i do or aspire to. Thanks to Clement my awesomemost friend fellow gamer, LuiShui-er and everything that comes with being you. My mentally challenged bunch at the band, Edwin for always trashing me in WinningEleven, writing songs, being ever so dedicated to the cause, being understanding and of course the very valuable friendship. Jialin motherpussy for always not shadowstepping and moving on stage but i still love you, always joking and taking seriousness for nuts but thats what everyone else in this world lacks which is why we treasure you. Eugene ultimatefighter for always being disturbed by me nonstop and even so still can ask for more volunteeringly, laughin for a straight 15 mins non stop with Jialin for absolutely nothing i swear and also trying so hard even though your mum is DrDoom. Bryan Circlebanger for bringing so much life and talent to the band which totally saved us and bringing us closer together and i really need to thank you for simply being so talented and making an impact in me. Francesca for still remembering the funny childhood memories though its so long ago and even though you may not be reading this and that we're not as close as before , you are never forgotten i promise.  Nicky for being there for each other in times of a man's worry hahaha. We have much to talk about and i enjoy every opportunity there is to know you even better. My classmates at 1B21 yo homies! I must say totally a different class and type of friends and character that i've never come across but you guys are awesome and totally steady. Thank you for teaching me almost everything before the exams cause you guys are totally smart and i'm totally useless. Eh Josh aim for GPA 4 can one. Relatively newer friends Huiting, Jerald and Maha. I'll be looking forward to knowing you guys better. I love to have interesting friends and you guys surely are.

Lastly my family especially my Parents. Supported me all the fucking way no matter what needs to be done. My father you take out your money so willingly for me be it education or leisure regardless of your change of job and the gloomy economy. My mum you are someone who never doubts me and thank you for being supportive of me after knowing about me and Alicia at the start of the year (even though you knew it all along with me in the dark i dont know how you do that). Everyone else who had made 2008 positive or negative for me!

I WANT TO MAKE THINGS HAPPEN FOR ME IN 2009. 7 Resolutions!

1. Spend more time with my grandparents.

2. Study well for year 2 of polylife.

3. Save more money from day to day for dad and family cause it's gonna get more difficult.

4. Win an award.

5. Spread more awareness of the sufferings of people in war-torn countries.

6. Get a Voigtlander! (Leica's just out of reach at the moment)

7. Make Alicia laugh more often even though she laughs every few minutes.

Anyway, i'll be turning the big 18 in 10 days. 10th of January.
Here's a HAPPY NEW YEAR to everyone!
