I haven’t ‘add(ed) a text post’ for a really long time now. The words…they seem to struggle to come out nowadays. Maybe also because my words are borne out of loneliness - or being alone. Sometimes I find that school/law has smothered my ability to write. Not that I had much to begin with but I find myself in awe at how words seem to burst forth from the fingertips of the people around me..I miss that feeling - where your words emerge/spring/form faster than your fingers can move. Where you don’t wonder, is this the right word? Does it carry the appropriate connotations you want/intend to achieve/portray? I find myself trying to bring a structure to my writing, but my thoughts wander are scattered and its difficult to arrange/build them neatly upon/around a scaffolding of logic/reason/fluidity (without losing its essence/meaning?). Punctuation becomes an alternative I turn to instead of words. They seem to say so much more for me now. The … or the ~~, the : or the -, all substitutes for the gaps in my thought processes, my failure to draw/create links within my sentences. Anyway …

I wanted to do some reflection/pensive thinking about 2011. I don’t think I’ve had a better year. Maybe I say this at the end of every year - I hope I do. (I’m trying to resist the urge to make a list here but my inability to link sentences together seems to prevail) So here it goes: to my future self reading older posts out of boredom/in search of something, I hope this triggers memories of an incredible year. 

The Koi addiction - some kind of drug in it that made me all hazy-brained and desperate that I’d drive anywhere, anytime & queue ages in the hot sun for it - but the satisfaction of that first sip is just … crim with WW & the four guys at the back (first mod with friends - school is less painful), more and more thankful for the OG by the day, one of the better cnys I’ve had with friends over + visiting them,  v-day with the lonely hearts club @ botanics, YTF nights, CSR - awakening and revelation, AUSTRALIA - trip of a lifetime, first of many long crazy adventures to come (I hope), Bangkok & Korea - last minute decisions to hop on a plane and go without much of a plan (indescribable), overall THE SUMMER to relive, back2skl: 4-day weeks hooray to long weekends & the glorious FRIDAY (feels better than a weekend because its actually a school day but I’m free), 9,10,11, trial advo tuts at A&G with Brad Peat, Harda Herring then Liak Gina & Twa Pai Lang, feeling eternally grateful to have friends/a friend who would sacrifice time to go down to shenton way (twice!) and be the best witness a lawyer could ask for, the MID-YEAR BREAK, travel, food & adventure, the California road trip & thus an amazing December to cap off 2011 - so much to be thankful for, I am happy to have I’ve lived & not just survived another year. 

2012 - which holds so much hope and promise, be better if you can?  

When they say the title of the movie in the movie.
