January was a pretty topsy-turvy month for me, such that i don't even know when to start writing from.

start of the month was pretty smashing after going to christmas, new year and a week into the new year, i reach the time of the year when i reach the big two-five. so now that im a quarter-century old, everyone up on C4 is making a big fuss out of it although they're ALL only a year younger than me (less guoan, ben and eric). but well, i've always enjoyed getting older, every year i feel more accomplished than the previous and feel like im ready for more up in the year ahead.

thinking about being 25, i realized a list of things that i can probably do now, or i realize that it's happening as im 25:

• i can now no longer call myself a young adult, for the fact that i can use the word "century" when im describing my age
• i know that my quarter-life crisis is going to come soon
• thumper and similar clubs are going to have to let me in now (provided i go there)...
• .... although i should start chilling at bars now instead
  
• im now 5 years older than the year 1 girls now
• im going to be 6 years older than the girls that are coming into NUS next year....
• .... and it'll be perfectly fine for me to date girls who are 7 years younger than me :p

and the list will just keep going on and on and on....

something im amazed at myself for this sem was that i rarely missed lessons and i actually found time to do some revision every week, or at least until the chinese new year week, where the cycle was broken and i find myself starting to have backlog in my work. and i never really liked CNY anyway, for the fact that i have a very small extended family and everything is like closed during the whole period.

at the same time as the backlogs started to pile up, work for my photo exhibition at the end of february went full steam ahead and yes, i've piled up even more work from before and the trainings of my various IHG sports really didn't help the whole cause.

even as i sat down one of the nights to plan my time, i realize that i have close to no time for myself, all the meetings, assignments, revisions, trainings, jam sessions, hall events, shoots, you name it, i probably did it in january, maybe i should have taken out the revisions out to make more time for the other stuff, NOT :p

sometimes i really hate myself for wanting to do so much and not being able to priortize. i know some people find it hard to believe that im doing so much that some of them think that im talking big, i don't blame you guys, sometimes i take a step back and look at what im doing in life, i don't believe it myself either. haha.

february now, still busy, but at least i have a bit of breathing space now, im left with 1 IHG event after a tremendous result at touch and a result on the opposite end of the spectrum for basketball, now i just have to concentrate on my assignments and my long awaited photo exhibition which all of you guys who are reading are coming for!

hope feb will be fine~
