2009/upcoming semester resolution

had some thoughts about this while bathing, so decided to pin them down in this deserted blog of mine...

2008 was a year of major academic milestones. Graduated from NP and NPTKD (stucked with a black-tip) with an average GPA of 3.1 which doesnt qualify me to any of the local unis. Enrolled into University of Queensland, Bachelor of Biotechnology majoring in Microbiology and given a generous 2years exemptions which gave me direct entry to the third year. Despite all the problems with crappy modules projects, i did not do too badly either... GPA of 6 is kinda common in my major so i dont regard it as anything outstanding. Had a 2-mth research internship with the Istvan Toth Group and managed to get my final product after THREE blardy attempts breaking glasswares and spilling hazardous chemicals along the way.

Other first attempts include travelling to BKK with my TKD mates, working as an admin staff for CFLT and Citibank doing the most mundane stuff and failing the driving test with 38 blardy points. The heartwarming stuff includes the *coughs!!* grand sending off i got from NPTKD, FO1 peeps and the AES mates... and me sending my parents off from Brisbane Airport... =( There are probably thousands of first times that involves living overseas so to sum it all up, lets just say... I've promoted from being the person who couldnt even cook rice to the bsker who made pineapple tarts from scratch.

so for 2009 and the upcoming semester... i wish to...
- maintain the GPA
- improve relationships with family, friends, relatives, housemate, coursemates, schoolmates (i have some kind of attitude problem and not-so-approachable/friendly character)
- get involve in some "CCA", canoe and/or taekwondo
- be a more outgoing person, less introvert, less passive, know more ppl and get out of my usual comfort zone.
- get a driving license from Aus?
- go travelling before honours?
- improve dress sense, make up skills, better complexion, lose weight... heeheehee!

blogged at this kinda of ungodly hours, had a realization that most of my friends are mere... acquaintance... i really need to forge better relation with peepos.

last day of CNY already, less than 20 days left.
