The last day of 2008.
Sadly, today, we will not be going to Marina to see the fireworks. Instead, the family will be going to the airport as my father is flying home from Korea in the night.
I will missed 2008, but unlike other years, this time, I'm actually looking forward to 2009.
New Moon movie, here it comes! Yes, I know I said it's too soon for it to be released, but as a fan, I can hardly complaint about the date. Also coming up, Harry Potter and HBP! 2 great, must-watch movies for 2009.
I'm not a party person so those countdown parties do not appeal to me. I like parties (not that I went to one before), like christmas parties, dinner and dance, etc. Anyway, I like to be part of the action and fun in a good way.
It's been a great year, or rather, the later half of 2008 has been great.
What with the publication of Breaking Dawn, release of Twilight the movie, converting my cousin and brother into Twilighters, New Moon movie being official, getting good GPA for Semester 1.1.
Also, memorable things that happened in 2008: my very good friend left for USA to study, hanging out with Secondary 4 friends, Olympics in Beijing, a very bad financial crisis, starting Poly in April, F1 GrandPrix in Singapore for the 1st time, getting a laptop, being a bridesmaid for the 1st time, a black president for USA for the 1st time, etc.
It's always during this time of the year and Christmas too, that the feeling of nostalgia will be the strongest. I'm a very nostalgic person. I like to reminisce the good, old days even the bad ones.
Resolutions or wishes for 2009 include, (in no particular order)
1) Good GPA and grades for semester 1.2, 2.1, 2.2
2) Good health and blessings to me, my family and friends.
3) New Moon movie to be better, bigger, longer than Twilight movie, Taylor Lautner to stay on as Jacob Black. NM movie must be decent and stay true to the book. Watch NM movie at least twice.
4) Buy Twilight movie DVD
5) Watch Harry Potter and HBP
6) Twilight official guide book to be published in Singapore (Buying it, of course)
7) Stephenie Meyer to continue writing Midnight Sun. MS to be published one day (I can wait, so take your time).
8) Get a wolf charm to complete Bella's bracelet. And a wolf/bear/lion plush toy.
9) 2009 to be a better year than 2008. Let the financial crisis and recession cease.
10) Great class for my Junior year in Poly.
Think I will add them to my wishes/hopes list and add on others from there. That's all I can think of now.
2008, I will miss you and the days I have.
Let's welcome the new year, 2009, in just a few hours.
