Year after year time passes and we get older

Unmeaningful resolutions were set each year on the first day

to be forgotten by the first month

The year ends with regrets and with new resolutions

which results in more regret by the end of the new year..
The year of 2007 was an eventful one filled with many changes..
I never bothered to really looked at what happened in the last year, however, as I sit down and do that, I realised that it has been a year where i changed alot.
I started the year of 2007 deciding where to go for my Internship, applying and eventually getting it @ iDA.
I started the year also pondering about the kind of FYP i wanted to do, which until today is still stuck.
I started the year not knowing what I actually wanted.
February sees the CNY coming.
The only thing i remembered was the typical gathering of relatives, collection of angpows and for last year, the visiting of my bf (or rather ex-bf) relatives, not forgetting MJ.
February also sees Valentine's Day and sad to say, I have totally no impression whatsoever
Basically the first 5 months of 2007. I knew nothing of what I was doing.
May came, when life as an intern started.
I made some really nice friends over @ iDA, whom till today i am still contacting and i feel grateful about that.
Wanxuan , Huiping, Noog, Weikang and of course Jeremy..
the ppl whom i will stay in contact with..
then came August where there was the Shanghai trip with Sihui..
interesting and fun, where i know ppl like serene & wivinia..
September marks my birthday month... where i decided to hold a celebrate to make up for the not-so-happy 21st birthday i had in the previous year...
It was good, with ppl i want to be there being there..
September also sees me taking up a new path in my career choice..
On the 14th of Sep i attended the GE recruitment talk.
On the 28th of Sep i made another strong decision by having my first braces appointment at NDC.
October marks the month when i was contracted as a planner and getting to know the ppl within the team and starting the job proper.
November comes the various courses that I had to attend, the ending of the semester, the starting of exams, the various closings and the money that will come in.
It was all about work, so much so that I neglected my studies.
November came my soulmate as well.
December was the month of reflection, not forgetting the work and trying to get back on the studies path. I also made the decision to obtain the vocational license that i procrastinate on for a very long time.
Ended off with Christmas, Review meetings, Post christmas dinner and the New Years' Eve.
