cny



for the first time in my life, i will not be visiting anyone on the first day of cny, or expecting alot of far-away relatives to visit the house. one of the changes happening in my life since xmas eve last year. i haven't been blogging since gran left, cos for a good period of time i didn't feel ready to talk about it. when i could, i didn't know what to blog about anymore.

life's been pretty ok for the past fortnight. visited the museum with friends whom i seldom meet. finally cleared ippt, albeit alone because the poor ippt-mate suddenly caught a fever. rushed to meet a design competition deadline, which we didn't win but had an inspiring journey anyway. met up with quite a few pple, but missed the chances to meet some more others.

i stopped doing any serious work since tuesday, trotting around home doing petty chores or roaming online with no particular agenda. i will probably regret this next week during which another design deadline looms. but cny is cny.

i was unusually introspective during the first hours of the new year, and got to thinking about the pple around me. family and friends sort. and somehow thought how easy it is to take the simplest things for granted. and whether they deserve new year resolutions more than yet-to-be-achieved goals because these are the things that we tend to forget. anyways.

i wish whoever's reading 心想事成. loosely, i think it means 'dream it, and get it'. happy new year:)
