But if you close your eyes, does it feel like nothing changed at all?

2013 is coming to a close. This has been a year of many firsts, many experiences whether I want them or not. But I've grown a hell lot, more than ever. It hasn't been an easy year from the start but I'm grateful for everything that has happened. 

I intend to sit down to reflect upon my year, the wrongs I've done and the little things I should do more, but not today. Today is for the new year though it may not have come yet. This should be written tomorrow at the strike of 12 but I have plans! Can't wait to see that bunch of girls and guys I've known since childhood. My favourite people :D

Come 2014, I hope I can keep some promises to myself. Mostly it's spending more time on things I love doing. 

1. 365
Yes, I'm jumping on the 365 Project bandwagon. A photo a day of anything around my life. Doing this to force myself to put more thought about what's happening around me and to photograph more frequently. I've been walking around all zombie-like and I hope to change that. 

2. 12
Insert a roll into my beloved Holga. One photo a month. Develop it at the end of the year. Considering snapping a digital version of the same composition to compare at the end of 2014.

3. Read
I'm not going to be overly ambitious and set a number of books to finish. Instead I'm just going to remind myself to read daily, however short it may be. Even a 5 minutes read a day accumulates. Also, this partly is the result of me being increasingly disgusted at my rapidly deteriorating command of English. I'm positive that all my recent essays would have been thrown back in my face by my secondary school teachers, and I'm rather upset at wasting my education ):

4. Run
I love running. I love the adrenaline rush with it and how great I feel for the entire day after. I shall make more effort to push harder every running session. 

Of course with all those come the usual new year resolutions to study harder and lose some weight. May the new year bring fruition to all these resolutions and promises.

Wild horses, couldn't drag me away (Rolling Stones, Wild Horses)

Having no idea why I'm so happy ((: I was bouncing all over my house and I think I'm smiling while typing at my laptop (((: I think, having slept almost 8 hours helped (sorry I was late tingtong macadangdang !! ). Watching Tim Urban stunning Kara with his perfect answer after she insulted his intelligence with all the snobbish air she has made me damn shuang. There should be a petition 'Kill Kara'. Hee Hee. So I wasted 8.50 on Clash of the Titans today. Just as well that we didn't watch it in 3d. Everything other than the battles was bad. Parts of it were old fashioned and tacky. What's up with Io gazing at Perseus longingly every single time she appears in the movie ?! Doesn't help that she's probably a few centuries older than him and their love was borne out of her watching him grow up. Incestous much. & Zeus brought her back to life over Perseus' adoptive family. REALLY? I'd guess two decades of bonding, of life on the seas, of love would...

Old women acting as students

So Class Learning Journey yesterday. Doubt we learnt anything watching old women acting as students - according to Kenneth - though. Most of us anyways. Not much of a bonding session for the class either. But, 'twas fun taking lesbian shots in front of Valentine's Day displays with Elizabeth and Tingfang and getting laughed at by blading chubby ang mohs. My dad really intends for me to study engineering o0. Highly doubt I'm going to do it, but I'm not saying anything more than a 'maybe I will' now. Wait until my results come back, then I'll launch into a quarrel with him lalalala. Pointless to do it now anyways. Need to study firsttt. Amazing how I'm wasting my time away in front of the computer. And the only B I got during promos - for GP, probably is down the drain now, seeing how my essay got torn apart by Miss Tan ):

I'm really beginning to get turned off by GP. There are so many parallels with Literature in the questions, the emphasis they place on inference, on tone and attitudes and literary devices, but there isn't any similarities when it comes down to answering the questions. It's almost like, they expect a standard answer, from a very non-standardised kind of questions, the kind of questions that ask how you feel, how you think, how you understand something. And I just don't think that a reasonable answer can be marked wrong, just because the setter wishes to emphasis on something else? It's ridiculous. Makes me miss the times in Lit, when we actually saw through a unique, different answer by using evidence to support it. Nothing was deemed as "No, you're wrong". I think the way GP is going, it's going to suck the brains out of us. They just don't want to accept our views. So, I wanted to do more photoshopping and go through some funky tutorial on fo...
