The End of the Beginning .

Rhema's 2007 :

A few people asked me to summarize 2007 .and whether i liked this year . I answered them saying that I’d have my mind made up by New Years.

Truth is ... i still don't know.
So much has happened this year, I don’t even know where and how to begin. There were many things that happened this year that made me feel like this year was going to be really bad, but things contradicted those events that made me think otherwise.

I learnt that not all will appreciate, not all will understand, not all stick up for you and most importantly, not all are what they seem ; try morphing into Evie from Thirteen .
But the ones that matter will understand and will be there for you every step of the way however they can. I’d like to believe that all of us, knowing our past, and believing in our future still like each other .

This year, I stepped into a new school and put myself out there and realized that if I just quit fooling around I can actually accomplish things.

Eventhough we`ve all changed from what we were and we’re all just trying to find our place in the world , we all know that when that tear falls down our faces or when that smile spreads bright across our face , we’ll come to each other because no matter how crazy this world is and how far the world takes us , nothing will ever change so much to the point that we’re not all friends.

I’m a firm believer in seeing the new year as a chance for new things. Whatever 2008 brings , I for one, am looking forward to it .Forgive,forget and move on .

“ What we call the beginning is often the end . And to make an end is to make a beginning. The end is where we start from “

Trina's 2007 :

At this moment,I can't quite put my finger on whether 2007 was what I expected it to be.It definitely passed so incredibly fast that I can't remember the last time I actually managed to capture a moment where everything was at a normal pace.It seems as if not long ago I was transferring to another school,gallivanting off to concerts and other road trips,getting into idiotic trivial matters.It's like I lost so much time somewhere along the way.

But what are my thoughts on 2007?
Honestly,as cliché as it may sound,I wouldn't change a thing.

In this what feels like a very short period of time,I've learnt so much from every experience;every beautiful individual.& for that,I'm learning to be more grateful for.This is undeniably a step up from 2006 when if I had not jumped off the tracks I would have fallen into the pits of oblivion.Ok,maybe not that bad,but still pretty screwed up.I've learnt to suppress all the negative emotions in the sanctuary of music.I'm still learning to appreciate the things I have;still learning to stop thinking with my ass like I did before;learning to forgive;learning to not be so pessimistic.But overall,I am content.

So yes,my resolution for the year 2008 is to learn & a couple of other stuff.

The golden years are going to be over,it's time to cherish the moments that are to come before everyone starts parting their own ways.Scream your lungs out and shit in your pants 'cause after this,life won't be giving anymore lemons.

Cheers to another fuckin' new year.
P.S. There is a difference being realistic and being pessimistic.
