End of year reflection...

It's the 30th today, and I doubt I'll be updating this tomorrow (seeing (a) I'm at Pete's and (b) I'll be busy cooking and getting ready for the New Years Eve party...), So I thought I'll update this today. :)

This year has been a very interesting year indeed. I've crashed my car: twice, my house got burgled, and oh! I got engaged in the mist of all chaos. :) I would call this a good year, at the very least, even though there seems to be quite a few misfortune, I actually showed myself I can actually handle things. I called people up to sort out the details and all, and in a way that's very important to me, seeing I have a very over-protective mother...

And above all, what's really touching is that every time I fall, I can turn around and count on Pete to be there for me. :) That shows that I didn't say "yes" for no reason huh? :) The fact that I can rely on him and him being a constant support shows that I haven't picked the wrong guy. :)

Here's to 2006, may the year bring everyone joy and happiness. :) And remember: look for the silver lining :)

Small shadow in the mist of happiness...

Well, firstly I just found out mum put a letter on a desk about 2 moths ago... so I missed the deadline for re-enrolling for 2006. *sigh*. I'll have to head into uni to deal with that when they're back I guess.

Then one of our close friends decided to tell us that he rather not come to our engagement party. *sigh* Sometimes I just don't know what I've done to piss him off really. Pete's sure it's not my fault, but meh, I can't help but to blame myself sometimes. It's still kinda sad, it's not like I get engaged everyday you know. I can probably deal with a birthday or something. It's my engagement party man. I already have two of my best friends overseas and won't be making it (they're coming to the wedding, I hope!).

Just the other day he pretended to be his French roommate on MSN just so he won't have to talk to Pete and me. I just don't know what I've done wrong. Sometimes it's just really frustrating that I do try to maintain a friendship, but he just doesn't care.

Kinda like a rejection, really.

Like Petey said, I probably should try my best not to get too upset, afterall I'm getting married to my soulmate. It's one of the happiest day in my life. I shouldn't let other things to ruin my day, I guess.

"I'll start my diet tomorrow"

After knowing how I have to start looking towards planning a wedding... I suppose I should really start getting into shape. But really, it's Christmas, I've already had like big meal after big meal. ARGH!!

My brother actually got me a gym ball. Should I take that as a hint? :P

Still VERY excited really. :) I'm still jumping around :P

I'll float back to earth sometimes. :)

A VERY Special Christmas, and my Firefox is broken :P

Okie, I was so very tired this morning, as expected, and the day turned
out quite different
from what I envisioned...

Short version: Pete proposed, and I said yes. :D

Long version: Well, I'll spare you the details. :P

Anyway, the whole day was then packed with people's warm wishes,
laughers and hugs,
(LOTS of hugs) and people asking me when's the big date. :)

It's been a tiring day, but it's really worth it. :D

So a VERY Merry Christmas from Lisa over here. :) And hope your
Christmas is one that
fills with love and joy. :)

P.S.: If you find the line breaks a bit funny, it's because I can't
update from the web GUI.
I have to email this in, and my Firefox lost its ability to form text
fields at the moment. I
don't know why.

P.P.S.: Petey, you are just THE best. :D Weeeeeeeeee!!

1 day! 'Tis a season to be sleepy

It's now... afternoon on the 24th. I've got red eyes, and I am FAR from being energetic.

Have been really busy lately. Catching up with people, writing emails for family, blah blah blah. Tonight we're heading to the midnight mass, and then Christmas day I gotta be at Pete's place by 8am.

I'm exciting about opening pressies, but man... I'm so tired. o_O

Oh, and seeing I probably won't update this tomorrow: Have a FANTASTIC Christmas everyone. :) Hope you won't be as sleepy as I would be. :)

4 days! I need more hours in a day...

Yes, I do. I thought I didn't do much today, but I actually did...

• Wrote two levels of my HTML puzzle (Level 6 is JUST up, btw :P)
  
• Figured out why there's a Fourier of the ACF in the Algo I'm working on.
  
• Figured out I might have to butcher the algo to get it to do what I wanted
  
• Solved level 28 of Enigma puzzle
  
• TRIED to solve level 29. And failed
  
• Helped my brother and Pete to do their Christmas shopping
  
• STILL haven't guessed the pressie though :(
  

Maybe I should call it a productive day instead. :P

5 days! And VERY unproductive.

I've done 4 levels of my HTML puzzle! And NO WORK on thesis. *sigh*

I know I'm stressing for no reason really. I don't really have a deadline. But I can't help but to think I've been wasting too much of my time. Maybe I'm just being a workaholic, as I am... :P

I came up with all 4 levels last night when I was trying to sleep. To be honest I think they got hard rather fast... maybe it's just me. But that's a good thing right? :P I'll try to make it all logical. I hope.

After a few more levels, I'll post of on some forums :P tehehe...
