And it's a wrap!

For starters, I can't believe Hil beat me to this. As you read on, pls bear in mind that I'm not a copycat...Well, most of the time at least...

2005 was a seemingly dull year for me (which was quite a disappointment, considering that I have an affinity for the number 5). As I look back on the resolutions I made for the year, I cringe at the thought of my slow progress rate. Shucks. Someone pls pass me a paper bag...

Here's a quick summary of my year, done with the limited memory I have of it.

Best of 2005
1) Getting my job promotion
2) Hil's ORD
3) A record high number of mahjong sessions
4) Applying to further my studies
5) A certain Christmas present

Worst of 2005
1) Fall-outs with some people
2) Visiting the dentist
3) Death of a great Pope
4) Failing my driving
5) Youth events in December

People of the Year Award
1) Hil. After all these years, I'm glad some things don't change...like you. Awww...
2) Matt. I wouldn't have survived long in YC without this 'Ah Pek'.

4) Uncle Mike's son. Because of Joel, my life is the way it is, mostly. So thank you. I mean it.
