2008 is out and 2009 is finally in!
Wow – another year flew by that quick! It’s starting to seem like it’s getting more depressing – I mean, it’s not like how it used to be with all the fireworks and rejoicing celebrations. For us, the traditional Christmas Spirit seemed lost and my enthusiasm seems to have wandered deep into the murky forest. Oh well – I guess that’s life. Nothing new there! Anyway, so I’m dedicating this post for New Years Resolutions (if I am sure to stick to them for 2009); Recaps of memorable dates in 2008 and practically whatever comes to mind I guess?
Shall I start of with New Years Resolutions? They are in no particular order:
Academics
- STUDY HARDER (I’m going to definitely need it)
- Pump up English grades
- Try to be more enthusiastic in French – and stop spending HOURS on homeworks that Mdm. Barrett sets
- Strive to find myself in Art
- Stop blogging during DT lessons *wink*
- Work harder in Maths – I know I’m going to need it when we touch up upon calculus and other hard stuff
- Do more background reading for ITGS and practise answering long answer questions
- Listen to Mr. Holmes during TOK lessons – which I haven’t been doing over the past Term
- Cut down on CAS activities but at the same time try to finish the hours before Summer
- Think of EE topics
- Prepare whole heartedly for Year 12 Mocks in May/June 2009
- Get through Year 12 by Summer 2009
Personal
- Stick to my 2009 resolutions
- Keep my faith in God and make it stronger
- Balance my time equally between studies, family and social life
- **LOSE WEIGHT!**
- Be more active through Sports like Swimming and Tennis
- Try to make better use of Summer Vacation (I threw my 2008 Summer away – regret doing so)
- TRY not to get distracted by any boys (I’ll wait until I finally move out of Brunei)
- Make up with any one I have fought with
- Become: a better daughter to my parents; a better sibling to my sisters and a better person towards my peers
- Stick to my 2009 resolutions
Others – (they are classified under here as I know that these would be the most unlikely things to happen over 2009)
- Finally meet by big sister Jasmin – still waiting for this faithful day to come
- Become David Archuleta’s girlfriend and life partner – I wish – okay seriously, I just want to meet him :)♥.
- Travel to Alaska *fingers crossed for 2010*
I think that’s all – if there are anymore that I can think of, I shall update this list. IN the mean time, I shall get cracking onto my recaps of 2008:
