A few highlights of the past week:
cycling at Ubin and chilli & black pepper crab,
sisterly love and photoshoots at construction sites,
sashimi paradise, ignorant waiters, and mango beer,
new abhorrence of shopping and rack-rummaging crowds,
surprisingly delicious fish and chocolate fondue at Dempsey,
homemade apple cinnamon rolls and mummy's cooking,
Holland V and missing out on xiaolongbao (boo),
fireworks on New Year's and too much beer,
Kenshin marathons and Richard Bach,
a lot of bumming and a lot of loving.
Reflections on the past year and resolutions for the new one are a tad too symbolic for (cynical) me to bother much with. Today's the first day of 2009, but it's just another day with an important caption.
That said, 2008 was a year of surprise and change, just the way every year has been, and just the way I want every year to be. When the peaks and furrows start flattening out into a horizontal line (y = 0) on the graph, life might be comfortable but a monotone in fuzzy shades of grey, which isn't what life! really! fundamentally! means!
I believe 2009 will be blessed :) With God, with love, with opportunites, with experiences, with all the little frills and thrills that make life worth living.
