In the Land of One's Birth

Two and a half years goes by quickly, at least in hindsight. Then again everything does. Being able to power through memories at the speed of thought will do that to them I guess.

I've changed... alot... but in many ways I'm still the same: unsure of myself, appearing to be confident when really I don't feel very confident at all. I've made mistakes too; wasted chances, wasted time, wasted friendships and (deeply to my regret) hurt other people... I couldn't apologize more for it...

I am different though... the way I view the world and my relations with other people has changed... grown. God has blessed me with friendship, love and experience in these past two years, and for this I am grateful.

I don't know what'll happen in the future, but I know that I can look back on my time in America with fondness and love, and that counts for something I think.

Now that I'm back in Singapore, I'm hopeful. I don't want to waste time. I will not waste my experiences. I want to grow as I have grown before, and learn as I have learnt before, and I pray that all of you can do the same.

So to 2009, and this new phase in my life: here's hoping you'll be something awesome.
