It's close to the end of the year! By close, I'm talking about 2 hrs and 11 minutes.

The brother just left for some fireworks display. I'm strangely ambivalent... Both envious and apathetic, because I'm too exhausted to go anywhere at all, though it would be nice counting down with friends instead of being stuck at home. A very nice change indeed...

I'm not even going to bother with New Year resolutions until it's really the new year. And the chances are that I will never keep those resolutions anyway.

Well, for a change, I thought I'd look back on this pretty uneventful year.

Changing schools: great improvement to the crappy one I had to go to. At least this one is way more challenging, albeit the school fees are astronomical compared to every other school I've been to too (by astronomical, we're talking about $12000+, excluding all the miscellaneous crap).

School was also surprisingly successful for me this year, with the pièce de résistance being the chem prize, and overall results and the strange little prizes that I've been getting as a result of flukes (eg: that maths thingum. The certificate is stuck somewhere in my school bag, crumpled and pathetic, after I forgot to put it in a file and shook a huge spider out of my bag...).

My new friends (Keisha and Victoria) are really nice too. Both very artsy... I think if they saw the stuff I used to draw in Nanyang, they'd get a cardiac arrest... And they're very helpful, and tolerate (to a certain extent) my moaning and groaning about my horrible tests that I think I failed but still miraculously did well in.

And Gaby! Whom I met after Inna was too sick to continue teaching me... :( She listened to my moaning too, though not without mocking me. Humph. In a nice way, of course. She's such a good teacher too.

And of course, Maisy, who has been a constant furball of joy and happiness for me. She is so cute, as you guys know. I have no idea how I could have survived this crazy year (of mostly studying) without her, especially every night when I would study till past midnight with her sleeping on my bed.

Oh, I just discovered that Maisy loves vanilla ice cream (those on a cone that you can get at supermarkets). Gave her some yesterday because it was so warm, and she absolutely adored it. :) I really should stop giving her such stuff because it's making her too fat. :(

And also, you guys, who've all been so good to me in various ways, especially talking to me on msn when I'm down (which is nearly every day) or helping me with my homework. Thanks for your shifty and nifty diagrams drawn on microsoft paint when explaining the really obscure geometry questions on my assignments. They were really hilarious, though very helpful.

And I should thank my school teachers too, who have been constant sources of entertainment. It's so funny when they think I'm almost fit to be beatified because I act so *innocent* and *polite* around them. Fine, stop barfing all over your keyboards. It's not my fault that the teachers choose to be blind to the stuff I do.

2007... Despite seemingly being uneventful, has indeed been another interesting year, especially for school. I really hope that 2008 will be even more interesting, though I'm sure it'll be full of studying as it's my last year of high school. No more mindless drifting from 1 year of school to another :(.

It's strange that I'm almost sad that my academic rat race is drawing to an end. All those years I wished that I would be done with all this competitive studying... I mean, I don't have a goal for what I want to do after school, which makes it way harder due to the pressures from the family and the school as to what I want to become (partly due to my 'excellent' grades).

Perhaps, after experiencing life in the lower echelons of society, I might after all, choose the stereotypical path of guaranteed prosperity, fortune (and depression) for the rest of my life in either medicine or law. Working sure does give you a different perspective. It makes you want to kill the entire world and yourself if you don't become part of the elite (to me at least).

Oh well. That's just the elitist side of me.

Anyway, a very happy new year to one and all. I am exhausted after having worked from about 9 to 5 today. Got my pay though. So I might go shopping for books soon :).

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE! Hope 2008 will be even better than 2007! :)
