Merry Christmas Everyone.

Its time for me to tell you guys a story.
True story too.
Last year. On christmas , i wished for a band.
More specifically , I wished for a band with a female bassist.

Boy did my wish come true.
Well , Hey. It came true but not in a perfect sort of way.
Nevertheless, i cant deny that this has been a really really GOOD year for me.

Firstly , I joined 2 awesome bands , D'Rebirth X (Skyler) and TempX. ( whats with the Xs? )

Why i am grateful.
While Christine might not have been too awesome and i say bad stuff about her behind her back , Theres no denying the fact that she gave me the opportunity to play in a band and brought together 4/5 of Skyler. Therefore , i am thankful.

Theres Also , Skyler itself. These guys are the best. I swear. i feel so lucky to have such friends.
Yes. We help each other out and that matters so much to me.
Not only that , i might be what you call hao lian , but we play good music too!

Of course i wont forget TempX.
I learnt a hell lot from Jarvis. From things like playing in a band to leading a band , stuffs like that. Needless to say , without his leadership in TempX , i,d still be lacking a whole lot.
Of course , i,m also lucky to play with 2 very skilled musicians , Kevin and David.

This year , I also played in my first gig. It was an unforgettable experience.
I,ll be playing in more gigs to come too probably. Theres the one on 29th...

Things have also been going well for me in school.
Firstly , i,ve stopped failing and even rose to the top of the class.
I,ve gained some respect for myself and ( this applies for school life only ) people look up to me so , thats a plus.
My teachers have restored their faith in me and i,ve changed from the fail guy to the score guy. So...thats cool ( no my chinese is still C6 standard. Thats probably never gonna change )
Lets just say that i can finally raise my head a little.
Back then , my parents and godparents were always nagging me to work hard so that i could get into poly.
This year , its different. I gotta admit , my chest swells whenever i hear my godma tell another relative that i topped the class or smth.
Also , i,ve gotten into the JC of my choice. CJC = )

Relationship wise , besides Skyler and TempX , i,ve made a number of close friends.
Matthew , hes a helluva good friend.
I still keep in touch with Gang Yi and Gang Rui and we look forward to watching I am Legend together.
Of course , the event of the year would be restoring my long lost relationship with my cousin HweePeng.
Yes . I dunno how it happened but by some twist of fate , we,re close again.

But seriously , the reason why i say that this year is a good year.
Its because of acceptance. Compared to my previous years , where i was constantly looked upon as a failure . I mean i couldnt do shit.
Seriously , i couldnt pass of as some pro gangster guy. Not a guy of my size.. I couldnt pass of as some pro sportsperson ( Sure i played basketball and Badminton but i was far from good )
I was a failure when it came to females and Studies ( still pretty much a failure when it comes to females ) Oh.. I know what i was pro at back then... I was pro at Warcraft. Yep.. thats about it.

But now , i mean i,m accepted by people and thats just swell.
So , i had a good year.
I wish for a good year 2008 too.

2007 was great but its time to move on.
Merry Christmas.
