2008 - A Happy New Year (?)

I am now at the threshold of what could possibly be the only event more monumental than the start of a new year - the start of school.

I remember being filled with utmost dread last last year (2006) around this time, but now I'm calmer and more purposeful. Guess it's coz I already know what to expect (mad scramble, mad sssccrramble...)

I'm beginning to wonder if I've become less nice than usual. Maybe I'll know when I've totalled up the times when I actually feel that I need to make an effort to be nice to others.

I'm looking at my timetable now and my latest class ends at 2.45pm. Which is something quite unprecedented for moi who has gotten used to lessons at late timings.

For what I believe is the first time in my life, I spent the five minutes before and after countdown attending to some urgent matters in the confines of my home toilet. So i kinda missed the transition totally..

I'm so going to miss the clarity of mind afforded by sufficient sleep.

It has been a gloriously relaxing one month plus.

I can't bear to leave...but the dream is ending...what could this year hold for me?
