out with the old, in with the new...

In one of my previous blogs, i did mention that i had wanted to stay home to celebrate the new year... but guess what.. the social butterfly in me couldn't give up the opportunity to go out to party.. so, i'll be out again.. hehe. hopefully i won't do or think of something that will hurt me physically and mentally. i don't think i can handle it anymore, as i am already at the brink of breaking down.

looking back, another 365 days have passed.. good and bad times.. mostly good, but there were down times also. however, i guess i shouldn't complain, as i still have a house to call home.. am glad that i've finally finished my studies, and am now a working professional. am also really happy that i get to meet so many people and rub shoulders with the who's who in the local scene.. guess there's blessing in waking up at 7am daily..

2008 also saw me progressing from a common gym member, to an instructor. what started off as a very hard journey surely paid off. what i've endured, the disappointment and all.. i guess i've learned from my mistakes, and also from others.. biggest lesson: there's no perfection in this world.

somewhere in the middle of the year, i took a giant leap of faith.. sadly, i tumbled and fell hard on the face. although i managed to stand back on my feet, the scar will never disappear. it'll forever remain as a scar (in fact, i am on the verge of breaking into tears as i write this).. however, i've realised that i've made the wrong judgement, and will learn from this terrible mistake. will never walk this road again..

movies, i've watched aplenty this year. caught almost all major blockbusters.. hehe.
latest watch: the spirit, and yes man. well, do watch the spirit if you are a fan, or you simply love graphic novels, or just wanna watch a pseudo-noir film.
as for yes man, it was a great watch. really loved the message in the movie. i must admit, i am more of a pessimistic person, and would rather say no than yes.. hehe.

ok, enough blogging to end the year with.
have yourselves a blessed new year.
until we meet again, next year.

ciao
