happy new year everyone:)

the last year was...eventful. many trials and tribulations, but also many situations that allowed me to see & learn new things about myself & the people around me..i'd say i ended the year pretty happy, considering all things:) thanks to the people in my life, and thanks to God:)

thanks to newfound friendships, and thanks to old friends and of course family who have always been there for me. sometimes i wonder what i've done to deserve all the people in my life, and i just hope that all of you know what you really mean to me..i don't say these things out loud too often, but i also don't want you all to think that i'm taking anything for granted.

this year...i pray that i may be more perceptive, more appreciative, more patient with the people around me. i realise that patience has become somewhat of a repeated thing i pray for. perhaps because i am just waiting..for things to just come to some sort of an end, happy or not. but i really doubt that will happen anytime soon. but i've learnt to take things easier. no point dwelling on things right? at my lowest, i found that a simple smile and a mere listening ear did best to calm me down. & i really am grateful for that k. :)

so this year started with a bang:) hahaha many colourful bangs actually..but before the year started, i had a good closing to 2007 too:) haha filled with surprises, reminders & nice little moments of simple bliss:) too bad the hols are coming to an end soon..i feel like i'm just getting started. haha but enough of that..there's precious time left, and so many things left to do!

just a thought. its never possible to fully know a person is it? even after decades of years of marriage, i know my parents are still finding out new things about one another. even i don't know myself well; i'm surprised sometimes at how i react to new situations. or even with familiar situations, i find myself doing different things. but then i'm also surprised by how well some people seem to know me; to know what i need to hear at a certain time, to know when i need to just sit quietly without talking, to know when i need to let everything out. its scary sometimes how other people can know you better than you know yourself:) but also a nice thought:)
