Happy New Year! (amanda’s perspective)

it’s interesting how fast 2008 flies by.. it’s definitely the year which impacted my life the most

1) a real form teacher for a P4 class.. deal with all the sh*t… the boys are notorious… some girls are siao… and one particular girl, S, made my life upside down.. and affected my mental health as well… i’m so glad i didn’t end up in the mental hospital

2) did some ‘projects’ for the school and zonal level.. which means more work on top of teaching.. at least i was appreciated for outstanding effort!

3) Big career switch for BH which resulted in us getting married earlier… well… it feels like i’m getting married to my best friend… and the bonus for this is…… unlimted spending power and holiday for 2 years in a foreign land

——————-

guess the above are the 3 main events… it’s simple to jot down in afew words but the process was unbelievably hard and difficult…

i wanna thank these people for making my 2008 so wonderful: (NOT written according to importance)

Family – My father, my mother and my sister for giving me all the help and support i needed. Giving me wonderful suggestions and advice, caring and helping me all the time.. Thank you very much! and i miss u all… esp. mama’s food 🙁

Binghuan – For planning surprises which did not surprise me! For making the BEST choice in his life by getting married with his best friend.. and for planning and organising most of the wedding details ( from the bridal studio to the honeymoon) Thank you very much for being a wonderful companion and partner!

Friends – Caryn, Felica, YM, Zhihui + many others for your help during the wedding preparations and actual day. Collegues from my *workplace* who had helped and guided me throughout the year.. 🙂 Thank you!

Last but not least, i wanna thank God for overseeing everything that we do.. esp. through our wedding preparations and helping BH through his career advancement… without God’s help, all these would not be possible… Thank you for showing us the “impossible” 🙂
