Finally went to a countdown in the US... Nv went to a countdown before, but juz went cos mich really wanted to go... I can imagine her disappointed face if we all simply just played poker instead... But the downtown parking was darn ex! $10 for 1 hr... Zzz... Wanted to juz stay n chill in my car while the rest go down, but they wouldnt let me... So we spent the $10 and went down... Well, it wasnt anything really exciting to be honest, there's a nice band playing, wif tonnes of ppl around it, n slowly counting down... And then, fireworks! n then, go home... Lolz... nth too much, but well its a way to usher in the new year...
2008 has always been a year tt seemed very far away... Esp when i first arrived in the US in 2004, 2008 seems to be the year that i'll be the happiest, as i can finally go back home... But now, 2008 will also be my happiest year, but not becos i can go back home, but becos its the year that i've finally decided that i will do everything tt i wished i had done, but nv do in the past 3.5 years... It will be the time when i finally can enjoy my independence, do anything that i want...
Life is short... We shd treasure every moment of it... I've always said tt if i could change things, i'd do things differently now if i were to return to 2004... But i cant travel back time, i cant change things that i've done... The only thing i can change now, is to do things now... So yeap, here's my laundry list of things i do before i leave... Sth like my bucket list, juz tt its me before i fly back...
1. To be able to go out once with the prettiest girl i ever met, n tell her that she is the prettiest girl i ever met. (the first part seems easier, the 2nd part, well iono...)
2. To get my 6 packs that has been eluding me since the time i was born...
3. To watch a movie (let it remain annoymous) with someone i would want to watch it with.
4. To help my sister with her school work n hopefully she can get better grades (2nd part of the yr)
5. To play soccer weekly
6. To be one of the best TAs i can ever be.
7. Last but not least, make all my frens around me happy...
