Welcoming 2010

2010 is looming in less than an hour and its time to review 2009 and set new resolutions for 2010.

Good bye 2009

It has been a happening year for me. Countless events had occured, and some had a great impact on my life. There are too much to list out all of them, so while i am reminiscing, i shall just list the few more important ones.

1. The favourite phrase of any NSF or someone who had to wear the camoflage for 2 years, ORD LOH!
For the whole of 1 year 10 months, this was the happiest time of my life. Of course i did feel some nostalgia regarding the life that i had led while still in service, but overall i decided that it was for the better to leave.

2. Entering university to restart the life of studying again.
This was quite a difficult time for me, BECAUSE i had to get the brain working again! Although I was looking forward to it, when it was really time to start studying, the grass on the other side was greener. And that was to slack and laze around HAHA.

3. Making new friends in the University.
Something that comes purchase with purchase with a change of environment, is the possibility of making friends. There are 2 possibilities when there is a change of environment. 1. Become a loner as you know nobody and withdraw to oblivion, burying yourself in studies or despair at the lack of EQ. 2. Form new friendships and enjoy the time and company. Most people will fall into the 2nd category, and the "select" few will fall into the 1st. I am glad that i made friends that i could spend time with and enjoy each other's company.

4. Renewed strengthening of friendship with my older friends
After reading the point above, you guys must have thought that i had forgetten about you peps. BUT no.... It is always u peps that i spend the most time with, do the most things together. And of course, will always be there for me when my life is in turmoil and sux the worst. Despite everyone having their own problems, the friendship has survived so long and well thus far. Lets make it a point to continue this inherently SPASTIC proposition. L-O-L.

Message to year 2010

I WILL TACKLE U WHEN U COME! Don't care what resolution le. Since many of them don't get fufilled ultimately hehehehe

1 litre of tears, Buckets not included!

Adapted from the journal of a girl suffering from cereberal spinal degenerative disorder, it started from the day they noticed the symptoms till the day she couldn't write anymore. Probably without the romance portion as seen in the show, which is likely a media ploy. But i believe that the family love portion is portrayed closer to the real deal.

The story was touching, encouraging, and does ask me to reflect upon my life. However, it does get  boring to see how long they spent to show the disease progressing. The amount of courage the character needed to go through each day of her life is trememdous. The number of heart wrenching, and touching moments are also countless.

However, unlike some people who will cry 1 bucket of tears, i am more affected by the happy scenes and not the touching scenes. It is touching to see how the family tide through the crisis together with her. How the society looked at her, and how she carried on living despite the curious glances cast upon her.

If you feel really down now and that your life is a bitch, you should see this show. It will probably help you to regain some willpower to fight through your obstacles in life.

1 Litre of tears...

Time to start watching this sad show...

Review on Star's Lovers SPOILER ALERT!

This drama series is about the romance between a celebrity and a writer. The writer grew up with his sister under the care of his "aunts" who are not related to him actually. They were abandoned by their mother who also stole money from the "aunts". The guy grew up to have a PHD in literature and lectured in the unversity, and later became an author.

As for the celebrity, she lost her family to the sea, and had a rough time from young. She grew up wanting love and attention, and she got it from the public by becoming a celebrity. So, somehow they met through a ghostwriting assignment, and a romance developed.

I especially like this romance as compared to the other cliched korean dramas. In this show, its the romance where the 2 parties stood by, and be true to each other that stood the test of time. All the others could not interfere, those who did failed miserably. And of course, in this show, the guy was kinda a jerk always being stubborn and obstinate. However, it did force the actress to be true to herself and stop lying to herself, or hurt themselves for the sake of the other party.

Busy.. but unfufilling holidays..

There are days when i'm busy from morn till night, there are days that i wonder what i can do. I cannot understand why am i just wasting time away like this. I want to start on my resolutions. But where is the resolve?

There are so many things to do and i guess i will not start on another drama series, and try to find the resolve to start doing something more fruitful. Time to do some major house area cleaning... My room is getting more and more cluttered....

Start of the wonderful holidays
