Another year, this is quick.
Mommy said my 16th year was by far my best :') I hope I did good enough.
This year was different to me than every other year because I felt like I was spending my time productively.
I realised that in my years of youth, I want to make the most out of the precious time I have, considering that when we're older, we won't have the same amount of time that we're gifted with now, and I don't want to throw it to waste.
Time is something I treasure.
The opportunities I was given this year made this year that more special ;
the children's forum,

The opportunities I was given this year made this year that more special ;
the children's forum,
serving at Mentari :),
following Uncle Sha'in to Pure Life Society,
the few workshops we held at the DJROA centre for youth,
the leadership camp that I will never ever forget, it'll be stuck with me forever :)
The quote by Mahatma Ghandi relates so much to me this year, "The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others."
That's my quote for 2009 :)
2008 wasn't exactly my best year, I guess I just took things for granted, and I don't think I really understood who I was and what I should be doing, but all that changed as soon as 2009 came. I finally got my head straigh, thank God, after going to Mentari; my constant reminder to lead a good life.
The one thing I loved about 2009 is that, my siblings and I are so much closer than we've ever been before.
and that, means more to me than anyone can understand because my love for them exceeds anything in this world :)
My relationship with Mummy has been more than I could ever wish for, Mommy's been my constand guidance, my number one go to person, THE person I want to emulate.
And.. actually, I would have never been able to pick myself up after my downfall in '08 if it wasn't for Mommy's endless love for me. Mommy really is the most compassionate person I know. Haih :) I love you so much,Ma.
Papa's been my good dose of laughter everyday. Whenever he comes home, the house just lights up, everyone smiles and is suddenly so much more energetic :) He's got that sorta vibe. His tough love but soft heart is such an interesting balance, I love that about Papa. My young hearted Papa, I love you :)
Another thing I realised is that, my holidays was spent mostly with my cousins. I can't count the many things we did together this year, let alone this holidays. Every moment spent you guys is something I treasure :)
From serving together in Mentari, from singing together in NawRuz, or just singing together for fun(acapella times (: ), going for camps together, doing Ruhi, PENANG :'),EMPOWER programmes, new year's eve, our ocassional movie dates, and the other countless things that I can't seem to remember now > :)
The new and old friends I met this year contributed to a good year. Although I don't exactly spend much time with my friends, my appreciation for what they've done for me, or just their presence in my life is never forgotten.
A certain few have made my life so much happier, so much more interesting and exciting.
Whatever it is, although I don't say this much or I guess I just haven't been around but I appreciate the little things and the big things that everyone has done for me. Everything that happened, or that you guys have done has helped me become the person I am today :) and well I don't pick and choose who I love, I'm just glad to have everyone that I've met this year, everyone that has been there for me, the times when I'm out with any of you, the times when any of you make my life that little bit better by just having a conversation.
To anyone and everyone who has crossed my path, thank you :)

So, today's the start of a new year.
Usually I'd think about my resolutions while watching the fireworks, but this year, I just don't have any.
I'm just going to take it day by day.
All I know is that I want to make the most out of this year : to be optimistic about what's to come, to lead a good life, to remember to love everybody, to just be a friend to everyone as much as I can, to remember to never take my family for granted, and yes, to do well in the upcoming exams; time to prove to myself that I do have it in me,
and to just be happy.
To a good,happy, joyous year.
