Happy New Year!

Here's a very happy new year to all you readers out there! During the course of the last year, I have went through a great transition; from military life to civilian and of course, back to my studying ways. Yes, it was hard at first, picking up all those books after nearly 2 and a half years' break... well, there is always a first time to everything. I am happy that most of my friends have been able to adapt rather quickly to their new environment.

I have relaxed and enjoyed myself thoroughly over the December holiday break; school's going to start in another 10 days' time... time to get back to serious work and to pull those CAP scores up; this time, the socks are going over my knees...definitely...heh. Oh well, so much so for the studying part; I really have to get on with the expansion of my parent's fruit stall... I will be taking a Technopreneur module this semester, hope that it will equip me with some basic and important business ideas before I start playing around with my parent's money... :P

On the global scene, the Tsunamis have wrecked a lot of places... Everyone's talking about it at the moment, so I guess I should not let up on this topic. Firstly, I am greatly saddened by these recent tragedies that took place around the region and glad at the same time that we are all safe and sound in Singapore. To those who have lost their close ones; I offer my deepest condolences. I guess the whole world's trying their best to help those affected recover from this gruesome event. A new year brings with it, renewed hope...

Sometimes, when we take a closer look and think deep enough, our lives are so, very fragile. You really will not know what is going to happen in the next moment... Still, matters of little or no importance are stirring up quite a fuss in our daily lives... matters such as what's mine and what's yours... they seem to be such small matters of little or no significance except for that little bit of pride... I guess we should all quieten down and look at life with a different perspective once in a while... It is not all about winning and getting what we aspire to acheive; like what my friend said, we should sometimes stop and look at all the beautiful things that life has to offer on our path to success or whatever goal one has.

I wish all a peaceful new year, all the best in whatever endeavours that one aspires and of course, a very happy year ahead!
