New Year Resolution???

2007! Another new year! Why don't I sound as excited as I shoud be? Maybe after 25 years, every year just seem to be another year of extra burden and responsibilities. Sounding so dampening. Haha! I do look forward to a new year. Yet as I have said earlier on, it also means new things and new responsibilities. But I guess above all, it's a new year to continue the good work the Lord has done in us and also entrusted to us.

Well! I'm sure everybody must be re-counting the old year and tabulating their successes in the resolutions that had been met. Hmmmm! For me, I don't know if I met any since I can't even remember what resolution I made in the beginning. : p Hahaha! I guess I won't be making any resolution this year since I couldn't keep it to memory. Actually, I won't really call it resolution. It becomes too mechanical and I just dun feel comfortable. I prefer to call it the 'direction' for the new year, where the Lord wants to lead me. But even before I talk about this year's direction, there's certain thing that I must thank God for the year 2006. I won't go into details but put it simply, the Lord is faithful in His promise. Though His long awaited answer was not what I actually expected but it was nevertheless clear and enlightening. (And also now my finger will be freed.)
As for this year's directions, I am still not too sure. I have to wait for my results to be released. I need to pass all my 3 papers if not, I'm going to be stuck in another year of studies. Arggghhhhhhhhhhhh! And then alot of pressure are adding on. Parents expecting me to graduate and start working. Arggggggghhhhhhhhhh! I wish I was much intelligent but guess what, I am not. I can cook, I can do floral arrangement, I can play but I am not a genius in studies. Haizzz! I'm not complaining. Just making a statement. Haha! So actually this year's direction will be very determinant on my results. Well! Just got to leave it into God's hands! : ) As for other side directions, I am very determinant to pick up Khmer. I don't think I will be able to fully pick it up in a year's time. I am giving myself 3 years. Meanwhile, I am just trying to learn their consonants and vowels. Oh dear me! It's not easy. Their writing of the 'alphabets' is like drawing! haha! But it's fun. Another side direction is to lose weight. Badly need to lose weight. Firstly for health reason. Secondly for clothes. It's really hard to get nice looking clothes for a buffalo.

I guess the next big direction will be removing all my entertainment rights which I mentioned in earlier post. It is still valid. So no fast-food, no movies, no KTV (except for the one which I had promised since last year with some of the youths) etc. Maybe I shouldn't go that extreme. Not total abstinence. I don't think I will survive. At most 2 fast food outing per month, 6 movies for the whole year and 2 KTV for the whole year. Sounds like a realistic plan to me. Muahahaha! Yes! Whoever sees this will hold me accountable for my actions. If I do break any of this rules, hold me accoutable. Yeah!

I am sure this year is going to be an interesting year. May the Lord continue to direct us in our daily walk with Him.
