I just received another letter from NgeeAnn. Its a reminder for me to study hard and also to tell me that if i fail macroeconomics again, i will be dismissed from school.
Anyway today i studied with Serena at HollandV. I'm starting to go into study mood which is good. But then again i can't wait for the holidays to come. Though its kinda saddening, it being the end of year and all.
As most of you have already noticed, we're in the last month of 2008. And in this last 2 months or so, MM Lee went into some cardiac surgery, 400 people in Nigeria died due to the Muslim vs Christian war. HIV numbers shot up, bombing and killing in India and Bangkok has thousands of protesters. What a way to end the year off huh. Some time back we had the tsunami which fell on the 26th of December; Vannessa's birthday. If you notice, we always seem to have constant problems arising around the world. It affects everyone. Yet, most of us choose to do nothing about it. Well, i know i don't. Then again, we tend to forget all that's happening around us as we usher in a new year. We're all so busy getting gifts and presents, so busy organising parties, attending Zoukout, spending time with loved ones, that we all forget all the negative events surrounding us.
And at the end of it all, we stand smiling like idiots, staring at a ticking clock and counting down the last 10 seconds before we grab the person closest to us and lock ourselves in tight embrace.
When it gets to that point, i bet everything else wouldn't matter.
It won't matter.
