everything is illuminated.

"And when the coyotes they sing in the park
It’s when the city life starts falling for the sea
Winding roads are winding down and the flying men’ll hit the ground
Every motion is closer to touching the coyotes sing when they call on your lovin’

jason mraz, coyotes.

1. new year is coming, this means i've got to make some resolutions.
looking back, i did meet most of my resolutions for last year: lose weight, meet a nice boy, spend more time with family and graduate with above average scores.

this year, i'm starting a new chapter in my life, the corporate one. it scares me but oh well, its a rite of passage.

my resolution this year would be to seriously draft a plan for myself and to work very very hard to achieving it. this means saving money, knowing my job goals and working on relationships.

also, one of the not so impt resolutions is to take a trip. i didn't fulfill my one-trip-a-year quota this year so hopefully i'll have enough money and company to make it over the shores of singapore. vietnam looks like an awesome possibility.

2. finished reading 20th Century Short Stories and now on Jonathan Safran Foer's Everything is Illuminated
20th Century was so much more interesting than when i had to study it in sec 4. but it doesn't help that my lit notes at the beginning of each chapter spoils the entire story for me.

Everything is Illuminated is turning out to be quite a light read, despite having a somewhat lacklustre story line.

3. realised how much i actually believe in God.
he never failed me, but this time, he is testing me. i can feel it. i don't know what to do, i don't know what to feel. i just hope i will understand the great plans he has for me.

in the meantime, kneel down and pray loh, what to do.

4. secured a full time job with not too bad of a pay.
yay!

i'm actually looking forward to the 'countdown party' at the beau's friend's place. though i know no one, it's nice to be a stranger this year.

happy new year everyone!
