Welcome to the year 2007.

I woke up this morning thinking that it was still the 31st of December. Must be from all the grape slurpee I had late last night. People had a countdown to 2007 while I had a major ice freeze.

Lets hope thats not a sign for things to come.

So, on to more important things. My new years resolution. The time where I list all the things I want to achieve and later laugh at it in March. Its safe to say now that I don't do resolutions. I love to go through a certain year and not be tied down with my 'rules for the new year.'

I guess the sex jokes would still continue, Yorsh.

Reflecting back on 2006, I guess it was a pretty structured year. Nothing BIG happened. Although, I still have that tingly feeling everytime I think about that time when I found out I was going to change school. I remembered being so happy and sad about it. I also remember my dad buying a Jack Lalaine fruit juicer and made us drink pure apple/carrot juice every single morning before going to school.

Thank god it lasted for a month.

Overall, 2006 was a bit too fast for me. I never had the chance to stop and appreciate, the year just went zooming away. I might've missed a lot, but I've already promised myself that I would make up for it this year. It may be the most important year of my life, school life rather but I would try and enjoy every moment of it. Everyone can't wait to finish school and be done with it but my mom always tells me that the school years would be the best years of my life. I believe her. I may not like it now, but in 20 years to come, this may be the time that I would want to go back to.

Hopefully, time machines do exist in 20 years time.

On a more lighter note, my mom asked me what would I want for my birthday.

Mom : What do you want for your birthday?
Me : I don't know...
Mom : You have to want something.
Me : Laptop?
Mom : No
Me : I-pod?
Mom : No
Me : Handphone?
Mom : What about a nice sling bag?

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In the end, I told her to buy anything she wants. If she can't find anything, just continue to love and feed me. That would be fine.

Parents. MY parents specifically. They always ask what I want, and say no to everything I ask for. Whats the point of asking then. I'm not mad, I just find the whole thing pretty amusing.

[ sometime last week ]
Dad : Sheila, do you want the last piece of cheesecake? No?

My dad likes to answer his own question. Nuff said.

But something weird happened three days ago. I was busy downloading songs on my computer and then my dad suddenly calls me. He and my mom was in the kitchen clearing up the bills so I thought 'Oh god, he's probably going to give one of those speeches again. The 'You're Spending Too Much Time On the Computer' speech. So I braced myself for a two hour slice in the cake tochure.

[weird incident]

Me : You called?
Dad : *lowers his glasses* Sit down.

Here we go, in three....two.....one....

Dad : *hands over a brochure* Do you want that?
Me : *looks at brochure*

5 seconds later

Me : *looks at dad, trying to figure out if he swallowed the wrong pills today* This laptop?
Dad : *nods*
Me : Uhmm..yes..I..I like it.
Dad : Do you need it?

SERIOUSLY!!! WHATS HE PLAYING AT??!!

Me : *decides to be truthful* Well, I don't really need it NOW, but maybe later..
Dad : Okay, so you don't need it?
Me : Well it depends, if I go out and stuff..
Dad : *doesn't answer*
Me : So you're going to buy it??
Dad : Not now..
Me : *pathetic mode* A.......lah............. buy-lah............
Dad : You do have your SPM and all.
Me : After SPM then.
Dad : I'll see what I can do

[/weird incident]

My dad, just offered to buy me a freakin laptop. How..weird is that?? And I didn't even ask him about it, thats the weird part. Of course I do joke about it, but telling my mom that I intend to get marry after SPM was a joke as well. Joking, its what I do.

Anyway, he said he'll buy it for me in December of 2007. WHOOPEE!!! Hah, this happened right after I told him that SPM for 2007 would start on the 5th of November and finishes on the 30th the same month. How cool is that??!! I have the whole of December to violate my laptop.

Sigh.

Great. Now that 2006 has just ended, I can't wait for 2007 to end as well.
