Season's Greetings
Another year has gone by again. I've been trying hard to recall what has happened over the year, but it seems that I can only remember bits and pieces here and there. Its the holiday season again, so its time to convey my thanks to different people in my life.
Dad and Mum: I know I've not been the nicest son this year. And I know deep inside me, your words and tempers that I've found irritating stem from the care and concern that you 2 have for me. Thank you for always giving me the freedom to make decisions for myself. Though not all decisions were right, they have become very important learning lessons. And without these lessons, I don't think I would have become a better person. I've no excuses for my coldness at home, but I also seek your understanding that it has really been a tough year for me. There were a lot of issues, events, work, SIFE that I had to deal with. And it was frustrating when I couldn't even have peace at home, on top of having to keep them within myself all the time. It was just very hard for me to communicate to you all when the first thing I faced was raised voices and accusations. Whatever it is, I wish things will get better in 07, and that you 2 enjoy gd health and luck for the following year. Love you all.
Bro: Its heartening to see you growing up and getting more sensible. Its going to be the time of your life where you have to make more important decisions for yourself, and be responsible of the decisions that you make. Focus at whatever you want to do, and do it good. All the best in 07.
Aiwen: Thank you for standing by all these years (I can't believe it's already 8 years... we're getting bloody old) to listen to my crap, while we accompanied each other in the growing up process. Thank you for standing by during the dreadful event and for not judging me. I guess both of us have had a messed up 06, so lets hope 07 will be better. We'll be bloody 24... gosh.
Dechao, Wilson, Chris, Desmond, Tiff, Fabian, Vince, Kevin, Hazel: Thank god there's always you guys around when we go drinking, club, chill, do nothing, slack, *puff* and act like kids. Thanks for the great company, long nights and fun!
Sam Tee: Sometimes you are like a older sister, sometimes u are like a little sister. Since we got to know each other 6 years ago in that pathetic room answering phone calls, I honestly didn't expect the friendship to last till today. But here we are, despite you being away in Doha for the past 3 years, u're coming home soon! And you'll be actually around in 07.. heh. Thank you for the long msn chats and hearing me grumble and complain all the time! I wish you luck in finding a job you love, and a fruitful 07.
Huikie, Shannon, Joel, Cher, Michelle, Tan Wee, Alvin, Stella: Thanks for the memories of SIFE Nationals 2006 and SIFE World Cup 2006. The endless nights, frustrating disagreements, irritating saga, sweet taste of success, nerves, fun, alcohol, 5-10, etc etc etc (too long to list) have been one of the biggest highlights of my 2006. Without each and everyone's efforts, we wouldn't have made it to Paris. Kudos to u peepz.
Jace, Janice, Joel, Alvin, Shawn, Ping: You people have been on of the strongest bunch that I've ever worked with. Thanks for accomodating all my @#$%#$%^$%#^ during meetings and I won't forget all the joy, laughter and friendships forged. It has really been a pleasant experience and I wish u guys the best in 07.
Castor, Joshua, Shirley, Dechao, Wilson: Thanks for backing me up in our projects over the last term. I am grateful for everyone's understanding of my instability at work. Without the support and constant nagging (from Shirley and Dechao!), I wouldn't have pulled through and ended up with one of my best performing terms in SMU. Love you all deep deep. ;)

And I Thank God for the fact that I've gotten to know you. You've saved my ass countless of times and for that I'm eternally grateful. Only you know my shameful past and my hopeful future. You are a man filled with so much love to give and I know one day, that love will be reciprocated in more ways than one.
