And the new year beckons...

And in some 1 hour and 4 minutes, a new decade will come forth.  Wow.  10 years gone just like that.  What have I done in that amount of time??  From 7 to 17 years of age.  Really.  What have I truly accomplished??  It's so befitting to hear "Hanging By A Moment" on my Windows Media Player now...  Very befitting.

When I think about it, how much have I changed, both physically and mentally.  Gosh, I'm soooo gonna dig through my photo album after this.

And looking back, I can say that I enjoyed my progress from kid to teenager, although I didn't fully utilize all the resources I had.  And for the next decade, new friends, college life, and the reluctant journey into adulthood.  It's gonna be rough, but it's just the way I like it.

Not gonna witness some fireworks tonight, since most of my family is down with illnesses.  Oh well, I don't need them to cheer me up.

I leave the decade filled with experiences good and bad,

with some mended hearts and some broken ones still being pieced back,

with laughter, tears, triumph, bruises, joy, scars, and all the ambiguous wonders I have left out.

Hopefully, I may just find some new life experiences to share with everyone, and maybe just someone.

I will stride down memory lane 2000-2010 with pride and my head held high.  Sure I'll look back in the bitter and tearful memories occasionally, but that's how I enjoy my reminiscence.  As long as we don't dwell in the past, I don't see what's the wrong at glancing back.

Damn.  I really got a write a song about this, don't I?  Then again, I'm SUPPOSED to record at least one song and post it before life at Sunway University College starts.  Wish me luck then.

To all, I bade a Happy New Year in advance and farewell for the last post in the year 2010.

Goodbye - Paperplane Pursuit

Rejoice

Yay!!!  Malaysia just beat Indonesia in the finals!!!  Although they lost in this second leg 2-1, they had a comfortable 3-0 lead from the first leg at home.  So no worries!!  Malaysia Boleh!!

And for today, at least I'm making some progress by letting go little by little (like, FINALLY...).  Well, I can't just be in a slump forever.  So I guess...  I'm moving on.  Yes, I'm cutting a frustrated figure for the long delay...  I don't like it myself.  Oh well...  Till the next time we meet.

Blink

Finally, I got a good book to read.  Yay me.  As you can see from the fine print below the title, it's about using your subconscious to evaluate and assess stuff instead.  It's seems... complex.  After the first few pages, I was very impressed as anyone can relate to the phenomenon which is Blink.  

The author, Malcolm Gladwell, does look pretty smart, with his Einstein-lookalike hairdo.

I just finished learning Chapter One, which is the Theory of Thin Slices, a sophisticated method of making a quick evaluation or judgment within a short amount of time.  For instance, a person who can apply this theory properly can be as good, if not more accurate, at understanding someone better than his/her close friend for, let say 8 years, just in a window of 30 minutes.  Unfortunately, about 45% of people who understand thin-slicing can't apply it.  I haven't tried it out yet.

Currently learning the art of "Priming".  This'll be fun.  Okays.  That's it for today.  Not in the mood for prom blogging yet.  And it just hit me that I'm starting pre-u in a week's time.  Crap.

After

You know what??  I just re-visited a presumed "dormant" blog of a friend and man... is it deep.  I guess the more I try, the more it's backfires.  But on the flip-side, if I don't do anything, what will stop the decay?

Haizz... Damn problems.  Oh, one more thing.  The driving agency just called me not too long ago to notify me that they lost ALL my personal info so I have to register myself again.  Utterly superb.

Well, Malaysia just thumped Indonesia 3-0 at Bukit Jalil earlier, which is great, since they lost 5-1 to them earlier in the group stages.  Celebrated with some awesome dessert with the Americans and the Tans.

And prom was seriously, a blast.  Can't blog much now la...  Losing the hype plus I gotta help my dad assemble and re-organise the new furniture for his office at Studio 46.  Starting to look like a cool place to work in, or a super cool cyber cafe!! *hint hint*

Oh well, I'll just end this post with one nicely taken photo of me during my solo performance.  Maybe it'll give me some motivation to blog more on prom...

Well, here it is!!

Thanks, Brandon!!  Fantastic work.

Agenda

Yes!!  It's finally done!!!  I finally finished the agenda for prom night.

And I finally suited up!!  With Liang beside me

But the main topic would be my cousin's wedding.  Hats off, Jack.  10 years of dating with the wonderful Jordan, now you have the rest of your lives ahead of you together.  All the best for the many years to come.

Us and the rest of the guy cousins

Again, I was one of the few reluctant people to hit the dance floor.  It was damn awkward.  I mean, there I was, with about a dozen other people, dancing the same set of 20-odd moves in front of 400+ people enjoying their dessert.  It was... hilarious.

And yesterday I went for the KPP course for driving.  And it was DAMN BORING.  I actually took a power nap during the course as it was so dull.  Lucky I had Sabr there with me.  Oh well, thank god it's over.

Now for Tron: Legacy.  My mom's booking the tickets as I type this out.  Can't wait!!

And Tenji buffet after that!  It's a brilliant excuse to eat like a pig and still look good doing so.  Hahaha.  Whee!!

Matrimony

It's funny how I'm having a massive headache although I'm not the groom for the day...

I have a hunch that the fever's coming.  And sh!t that ain't good.  Well, the schedule for prom STILL isn't complete yet...  I got about 5 bands not replying my messages...  But the good news, I have a little time extension till tonight.  Moreover, I managed to break a new record for screwing up the head of the poor Akar Karya worker as I called him a total of 8 times.  Oh well, the customer's always right, eh?

Can't wait for tonight!!  I hope that the stupid pimple below my nose doesn't show.  Otherwise I'll have to do some massive photo-shopping.  Ciaoz
