Couldn’t join my fellowship’s hotpot at night because I’m still on medication and my doctor advised me not to join gatherings with many people.  It has been like a month since I last joined fellowship, sure hope I’ll be able to recover fully and join again soon.

Tonight’s another one of those times when I wished to spend with someone special, thought about someone and was kinda hoping to get a New Year’s greeting from her, but nothing came from her when I checked through the many messages the next morning.  I initiated a conversation with her by sending her a greeting message on Christmas day, so I was kinda hoping she’ll initiate a conversation on New Year’s day, that way I’ll know she’s a little interested in me?  I’ll continue to pray and be patient with God in finding my other half…

I was tired before the countdown, could hardly keep my eyes open to watch the fireworks.  Instead of joy and hope, tears sipped out of my eyes, I couldn’t understand why that much money spent on fireworks that lasts for mere minutes couldn’t be put to better use on the weak and poor?  Moreover, there were still constant protests on the streets, it just didn’t seem like the right time for celebration.
