One Year on...
In the true Nietzcheian antiquarian spirit (Dr. Keck, dun u just love me for being a good student? heehee), I recall that today marks exactly one year since my last paper (Dr Lockhart's!) in NUS! And consequently, it oso marks one year since the 1st ever class gathering at my place, with unforgettably wonderful attendance and sizzling fun.
How time flies. One year on, what have I achieved? In terms of tangible matters, probably not a lot. Have yet to search for a more suitable job while balancing family commitments. Feeling a serious lack of accomplishments esp in comparison with my peers. Love-wise, Cupid missed his arrow. But, I noticed that I have grown spiritually, mentally and emotionally since graduation. Grown to understand and accept myself more in terms of who I am as a person while constantly striving to be better. Found great friends whom I care for dearly, though I am not by nature someone who shows it a lot. I have oso found solace in renewed old friendships and some very gd mentors whom God has put in my life.
Went with Dad to a bank yest and realised that I was last there two years ago, when I was in the midst of deciding whether or not to go for Honours year. Being there reminded me of a painful incident regarding a past relationship. Glad to have made the decision to go for Honours!
Interesting to pen all these down and see what changes another year will bring.
