2011 < 2012

Well, about 2011.

It was pretty okay...

Started off the year with things I can't remember but I think it was also staying at home during the countdown. I hate crowds and I don't want to squeeze with them during the new year and get my things stolen or something. Realized I always don't have anything on on supposedly eventful days like NYE and X'mas.

School started and I can't remember anything much except that I had biz comm and it was awful :(

The next big event that occurred was CO concert I think. Practices went really intensive in the week leading up to the concert and I remembered cabbing home with HuiJing like twice that week, paying $10 per person. Cus of the intensive practices, I didn't have time to spend my pocket money lol. Ended up being quite rich but I spent it all cabbing :(

Concert was pretty memorable cus it was at the Esplanade! My first time there! Had to put make up ourselves and stuff but thank goodness there were alumni to help us with it :)

L also entered my life and I'm glad hehehe

Ran for NUSCO exco and I got the Social Secretary position cus there was no one competing for it. I was pretty nervous cus it involved giving a speech in front of the members and alumni who were present and I also had to answer any questions from them. Looks like I was let off easily hahaha.

Then came the long holsss which I did nothing and went to Korea for 2 weeks. The Korea trip was awesome cus it was damn slack at the end. At the start, we were disciplined and we woke up quite early and did at least 2 itinerary items a day. But at the end we woke up at like ten or eleven and one did 1 item a day and I liked it cus I had enough rest :) I miss the tofu soup and fried chicken there!!!

Spent the remaining holidays going out and L and friends and had some exco meetings. Organized CO chalet and it was a failure :( Matriculation fair was okay. Thanks to everyone who has helped me in the chalet and matriculation fair!!

Got my results and it was disappointing. A really low phase of my life and I was pretty depressed for awhile. Started the next sem pretty unconfident of my abilities :(

Yeah I was unhappy and stuff but I guess I'm thankful of that. Because that phase really taught me a lot of things. To be stronger emotionally. To have faith in myself even when things are against me. To pick myself up. Stuff like that. Since that phase, I guess nothing much can make me that upset anymore. I realized that life is not that smooth sailing and I'm ready to ride all the waves.

Started the next sem by being quite hardworking (I don't know if I reached my limit) It is the only sem so far in which I completed almost all my tutorials on time and read almost all textbook chapters before lectures. Aiming to maintain that in the coming sem :)

Next sem was okay with quite little projects. Had mooncake festival celebrations for CO. Exams came and music camp was next. This was the year when I became closer to the exco like Huimin and Tj (SSSS :D), knew more friends from CO and knew more gossips. Previously I lived in a small world where there was only HuiJing and me, we knew nothing about gossips and no one included us in their clique except for our own section. It was fun nonetheless. Sometimes I missed those times when things become complicated and political now.

And before I knew it, 2011 is over. 2011 was a year where I learnt alot from myself and others. I also made new friends, became closer to some and further from some.

For 2012 I only have 2 resolutions, which is to have more faith in myself and to be more hardworking, in whatever I do, like CO and school work!

  1. Hello. I must say we had a very similar 2011! Looks like in CO we share a lot of common experience, much more than the music itself!
