So 2006 has ended and I hope everyone had a blast celebrating New Year's Eve partying, getting drunk or something along that line that involved being with friends and loved ones.
Oh I had a blast myself. It was something that involved a comfy bed and a impossibly dashing and smart guy.
I was watching Prison Break in bed (what else were you thinking?) - it's like killing 3 birds with one stone.
1. I'm protected from the monstrous crowds. 2. I'm getting my deprived rest (after a trip from hell; details later). 3. I'm entertained and blown away by Wentworth Miller.
It feels so bizarre that 2006 is over. I'm no longer a student (which kinda makes me unemployed at the moment... hmm) and have sort of reached the end of my education. Sort of because I'm going to pursue post-graduate research which will indefinitely involve learning.
It's that time of the year when the insuppressible urge to reflect on the past 365 days emerges and I've given it a bit of thought (in between Wentworth's screen time) and I've really been blessed this year.
Both good things and not so good things have happened, but overall, the way I see it, everything's worked out for a pretty decent outcome. I've learnt alot and gained alot. Academically, socially (I've made many good friends in my last year of uni), spiritually and maybe physically too (oh drats... it's the festive fatness).
God has been so faithful throughout the entire year - my prayers were answered. I made it through University with a first class honours. Something so seemingly impossible for me (if you knew how brilliant my classmates are, you'd understand where I'm coming from) yet so possible not by my own strength but His.
Like what my pastor said, when we rest in Him, He doesn't stop working. The second half of this year would have driven me nuts with all the deadlines and tight schedules - I had 6 freaking subjects on top of my final year project. How I made it through without ever breaking down would be because of Him. My shepherd and my strength. In fact, come to think of it, I think I was actually a happier person in 2006 than all the other years!
The year ahead will be even better because He's made the way before me; I know that for sure because 2006 has already been a living testimony to that truth.
Now that 2007 is here, it's time for some to make their resolutions again. Not for me though. Somehow, resolutions are things hardly ever fulfilled because they are dependent on man's own will and strength. Thus, I'm making a list of my heart's desires that I will commit into His hands for there's always hope - a confident expectation of good things, when such desires are placed into bigger hands, like His.
