31 December 2006, the last day of 2006. Time to look back at the year and reflect on it. Let me see, this year has been as always, well up and downs are a part of life. Hmm for most of the year I was working either at Kumon or at home, teaching my Form 5 students, all the best to them =)
Ups of 2006:
I got to do some work after quite a while studying and bunking at home. Spent about 4 months at Kumon, teaching math and english to small rich brats. I tell you, they can be a pain in the ass, well most of them. Running around not wanting to do work, keep asking for sweets etc etc. But it was an experience, first time working under a 'foreign' boss. :p
Got a place in NUS, eventhough I did not get the course I wanted. Really thank Godfor His goodness. Some people say that my results sure get a place, but I have heard of people with better results than me not getting a place at all. Environmental Engineering...seems like a prospective course, gaining popularity in the engineering world. =) Have to work hard next semester, taking 6 modules some more.
Passed all my modules taken in Semester 1 :D Not so great la the grade for CS1101C but I passed, thats the main thing.
Got my permanent driving license. Hehe 2 years of not driving(in Singapore) and got CDL when I came back. Yay, now I can drive my dad's toyota without the 'P' and whizzing down the lanes at 110 km/h =)
Downs of 2006:
Hmm lemme see...not getting Chemical Engineering as my main course? Minor disappointment, but Environmental is fine with me now =)
My B's in A-levels Chemistry and Math and also B+ in MA1505. I thought I could get A's in those 3 subjects. Must put it behind and look forward to 2007 =)...I guess that were my downs in 2006
Hope for 2007:
I really pray and hope that everyone that I know, and the people around me, will be blessed and have a great year. I've known some who are already having a great time. Hope that these people will continue to have the best in life.
God bless everyone and 2007 will be a wonderful year!! =)
Cheers everyone!!
