December, a jolly time of the year. Everyone gets in the festive mood, all ready to wrap up the year and start off anew with much hope and expectation. And a new year, almost always, comes with a long list of resolutions.
I didn't give much thought to mine, but as the new year progresses, I've decided that I shall take my interests a little step further and be indulged in things that I love. For one, my poor camera has been put aside for some time ever since my lens malfunctioned. I finally decided to invest in a telephone lens and will be able to sharpen my, unfortunately, non-existent skills. And the subject of my photographs? This beautiful planet we call home. I can't wait to set out on new exciting adventures! I started off my new year by taking a PADI open water dive course with Borneo Dreams, and I'm now a certified diver, woot! Diving was amazing! I'm so in love with the underwater world :) I also got to explore a little bit of West Malaysia during our short getaways to Kota Bharu and Pulau Langkawi. Will blog about those soon.
I'm anticipating this year to be a major roller coaster ride (speaking of which, I've recently went on the Human and Cyclon ride at Universal Studios Singapore with much persuasion). My mom's taking my siblings over to Hawai'i for their studies and will be there with them for a period of time, which saddens me ever so slightly though we weren't staying at the same state in the first place. Also, I'm supposed to be wrapping up my PhD at the end of this year! Oh dear, wonder how that'd go. Just like how I felt when I was lining up for that nerve wrecking roller coaster ride, I can barely suppress the tingling sensations in the pit of my stomach. I dread to board that ride, but I know that once I'm on it, I'll muster enough strength to brave through it. And once I get off, I'll look back and say, meh that wasn't too bad was it? Ah, and so I convince myself.
