elephants have bigger brains than men

t-ooh o o phive

some quiet reflection made me realize how severely unaccomplished i have been throughout this year. 2005 seemed to have whizzed past just like that!


first three months was perhaps the most carefree period in my life; not being the least bit bothered bout untidy IJ uniform (hahah, low belts&socks) or completing assignments. the only thing that could possibly stress us out then was where to go after school, and how to kill time during our few-hour-long breaks. haha


anyhow,
2005...
+ consisted of a surprisingly long list of first-times!
+ led me to meeting a whole lot of wonderful people
+ inspired the detonation of fire in becoming-somewhat-stagnant friendships
+ became closer to previously just hi-bye friends.
+ was the year my dearsister got engaged
+ was the only year with zero savings! ): [too much shopping, too much shopping!]
+ was the year i got dear Leo :)
+ was the first time i got two changes of phone within a span of 2 weeks
+ was a present-filled year :)
+ was yet another year i enjoyed nationals. (all that zest and pumping school spirit)
+ was my first year in house comm
+ was spent trying to diet, though it never really materialized
+ was the first time i reeeeally enjoy school's food :D (ij food always tasted horrid/had extra surprise ingredients in them)
+ was a beautiful year that flew by in the blink of an eye, although nothing particularly memorable happened and i didn't achieve anything whatsoever.
+ made me realize how wonderful being in an all-girls school is. damn I MISS IJ ): i even miss jo teo's signature run-about-with-long-wooden-ruler in the early mornings.
