HELLO 2013.
posted: 9:55 PM | comments: 0

Today is the first day of 2013. It doesn't feel like a whole new year to me yet. It still feels like 2012, like the month of December, like I'm still sixteen! Technically I am still sixteen but I'm entering form five when school reopens TOMORROW and I'm facing one of my biggest fears; SPM!!! Can you imagine me being one of the seniors in school now? I can't. I'm still wondering why is school reopening so early this year. Well I guess it's time to face the music. 

Last night, I went for a countdown with the church peeps in church of course. It was my first time attending a watch night service in church. The hall was filled with lots and lots of people! It was so full that there were not enough chairs for the latecomers. Before the service started. Paul and Ben asked the youths to write down the goals and dreams we want to achieve in 2013. Dreams that we want God to be in the picture. Paul prayed for us and our dreams during the service and he managed to finish praying for us 2 mins before 12 a.m. struck lol. 

It was fun counting down with the church peeps! Once the clock struck 12 a.m., everyone gone wild lol like literally. The atmosphere was crazy! Everyone kept hugging each other (including me) and walking around wishing each other a happy new year. 

There was a talent show after the count down. The ones who participated were from the youngsters from the campus cell, a group of Chinese youngsters from Pastor Amanda's cell, a group of Africans from the international students cell, a group of people (whom I don't know) from Kajang and a group of middle-aged people. There were sketches, dances and singing! Some of them were amusing and entertaining! The Africans took the first place followed by the youngsters and the group of Chinese youngsters. It was nice watching how these people were so sporting and spontaneous especially the aunties and uncles.

It's amazing how time flies yet scary at the same time. Don't you think so?

2012 had been a totally different year for me just like how every year just keeps getting better! Of course, 2012 was a year filled with regrets too. Entering form four this year took my studies to a whole new level and having new classmates was nice too! Fyi, my classmates were always the same from F1-F3. A lot of memories were made in between, especially during the holidays! Met a lot of new people which we became friends eventually. Also bonded with the old friends especially with the #tigerbanana (a.k.a my carecell members) 

The highlight of the year would definitely be Mad Camp 2012! This is the camp which changed my life inside out and gave me the chance to build my leadership skills plus make new friends!

I would like to thank you to those who made my 2012 a memorable year. I would also like to apologize if I ever said anything or did something hurtful to anyone. 

I'm prepared for a whole new year because I know God is walking with me through this.
