It's that time of the year again. I don't know about you guys, but I feel that the things that happened within the last 12 took place ages ago. I am also seriously considering whether I should stick to my "Make No Resolution" resolution. Oh, wait a minute ... that's STILL a resolution dumbass! Whoah. My inner voice must be PMS-ing. Be that as it may, I definitely need to make some things happen for me in the new year. Resolutions or not, I aim to make 2006 a good year.
Anyway, 2005 had its ups and downs, eh? Talk about our lives doing a 180 on us. I'm sure you all know what I mean. A lot of things changed. People, friendships (Ya ha!), our views on life and much more. I recall some of the kabaams! and kabooms! that happened in college involving some people which I shall not mention. But damn it, I missed most of them! Oh well, my Mass Comm-CNN news team will never fail to regail me with details and more.
This year was not one of the best years for me. As most of you know I am now a statistic for being a victim of snatch theft. Although I escaped unharmed, I am still scared to come home in the afternoon. I hope none of you will have to experience such an incident. I should actually consider myself lucky because other victims had even worse outcomes.
So, as part of my year-end post, I have decided to create my Top Ten chart of ... New Innovations and Useless Things Accomplished at Taylor's. Here goes: -
1) Peru had apparently been re-delianated as a STATE in BRAZIL!
2) Some people are very ambitious in changing our railway system to include a stop in Russia!
3) I hosted my first tea party! Woo hoo! More creme` brulee anyone?
4) AFTER the party, somebody backed her car into a tree outside my house! You know who you are!
5) Princess Pooi Yee made all of us dying-to-be-thin chicas turn into green-eyed mosters of jealousy as she managed to shed her pounds like nobody's business!
6) Our first Raya gathering at Hew Yeah's, all adorned in traditional costumes.
7) Move over Austin Powers! You're not the only one who has a "Number One" and Number Two". We also have a "No. 1" and "No.7"! Eat my dust!
8) Breakfast rendezvous at McDs! They should put our faces on the customers' Hall of Fame wall.
9) Peanut butter will now be pronounced as Pee-noot Boo-terr!
10) The invention of the words "You got see before meh?!" so deserves a place on my chart. No contest!
Wait! This ain't over. The most prestigious and highly-acclaimed award of all goes to me for finally mastering the art of playing Sudoku!!!!! Yes siree ... I would like to thank Vanessa Gan for giving me the Sudoku book from the SUDOKU INSTITUTE! Don't pray pray! I am now a brown-belt. Who knows, if a mugger tries to mug me again, .... I can clobber him with my Sudoku book!
So, people, needless to say we can sometimes be a bunch of crazy schmucks. But, hey, honestly, I will only be a schmuck with you guys! (And the crowd goes "Awwwww....")
Before I end this highly intellectual musings of my twisted mind, let us all hope for a better year in 2006 and more good things to come! Cheers!
Below are some of the pictorials taken in 2005. Some are just too good to miss putting them on my blog. Enjoy!
