Recap of 2008

Man. Here we are again, at the last day of the year. And if you ask me if I wish I could've turned back time? I'd say no. Not that I had a bad year, but I've come to understand now; how life is meant to be lived only once, and that memories are special because they will never come by again.

This way, we learn to cherish every moment of our lives more.

I went through all my blog entries of 2008, and remembered once again the events that I'd been through this year. I will now do a quick recap. :)
Well, the year started with me being very emotional about life, the stars, the moon, and everything else. The year also started with me ignoring my resolutions for 2008 completely. Talk about a bad start. =/Then, started playing Cabal Online in March. Recently I discovered the game software left behind problems in my computer system and possibly even hardware. Idiot game.Took part in the Big Mac Chant in May. I never did win the RM10k, but the actual winner's video was the same 'reverse chant' concept as mine. Ish.
In June, we had our Amazing Race youth camp. That was a very good job done by Ian, Jeff and the committee. We hope to keep all future youth camps that way. :)
Then in July, went for a day trip to Raub with Kingsley, Yvonne, and Yee Young. Visited this waterfall called Lata Berembun, and had a really frightening jungle offroading experience on the way. Imagine a cliff to your right, and a muddy wall to your left, and only Just enough space for one car in between. One wrong move, and down you go. Also got my pair of Converse shoes then. Now, one of them has a hole in it. I need new shoes.

In August, I missed spending time with nature so much, that I skipped class with a bunch of my friends from uni, and went to a forest reserve nearby. Eheheh.

Then in September, my 20th birthday. I don't have pictures of my own birthday, how sad. But thank you all, once again; who made my day on that day. My birthday sparked off the beginning of my 3-month long semester holidays, so...
...I started working for Uncle Allan beginning November. Learned a great many number of skills and tricks there. I did promise to successfully learn how to ride a unicycle by the end of this year, but well. There are still some flaws; but I can ride on one for about 5 metres? Lol.

Then now, December has come and passed. We had our Christmas carolling, then Christmas Youth Retreat at Gracehill. And we had lots and lots of fun-filled but nevertheless hectic activities throughout this whole month. And now, it is all coming to an end. I'm sorry I can't be more specific and elaborate a little more. =/

The youth is looking forward to a new structure beginning next year. Some people are excited about it, some people are pessimistic about it. Nevertheless, we should all hope and work for the very best. God is in control.

Turn the pages with me. A new chapter awaits. Let's make it better than the last one.

Cheers, to all of you.
