blink
and yet another year flashes by. when i was younger i never understood those old people saying how each year passes by quickly. it's a year. and a year is long. and there were countless tests, exams and whatnot which i had to go through before december and the hols come and the year is finally over. how could a year pass by quickly? but now i realize that i did not really know how the year passed me. was i really in hk only half a year ago? did a semester pass by yet again already? did all those things really happen? it all seems like a dream to me now. everything in a blur, because each year does fly past, i realize.
it's been kind of a nice post-xmas. meet-ups, gatherings, celebrations. after not sleeping last nite i notice that i'm too old for this already. things need to quieten down for me; things have to move slower, for me to appreciate them better. i don't really life this pace, cos i can't really remember every moment any more. i'm beginning to show my age.
i guess my life would deaden much when i start work. which incidentally would be next year. gosh... did i just say that i'm going to graduate next year? it would be a milestone in the journey, my academic one. one more semester, which has to be really good. and then i'm done. resolution one: excellent results.
resolution two: time management. because time managed well = more time. more time to manage relationships, more time for pro bono, more time to discover myself and God.
two for now. because more does not mean better, unless they are fulfilled. gotta go!
