Endless Sacrifice

So, it's the time of the year again, where people write blog post reflecting on their year and making resolutions for the upcoming year, and I thought that maybe I should do the same too. After all, the blog address does say "Just to fit in".

Well the past year has been, (can't find the word). It doesn't really work if I can't find the words, does it? Well, maybe it can be described as messy?or roller coaster? good? sucks?
Nope, none of the words appeal to me or fit the situation. Yes I have a very limited vocabulary.

Anyway, many things have happened in the past year that has led to me to see the world from a different perspective. You can say I have had countless epiphanies. However, I have still, as of now, not saved the cheerleader and hence the world yet. I have however, picked up reading, of which I am very glad.

Now, enough of reflection, and on to next year.

I foresee a very busy year ahead, perhaps the busiest to date. I have already committed myself to extra academic workload. And I plan to increase my community and sporting commitments. Perhaps the word commitment isn't exactly accurate here, as these are not things I am forced to do, but rather, things that I have a genuine interest in. I'm planning to join a football(soccer) club and a development aid organisation and then maybe another.

If things go to plan, I'll also be taking a test in March which I still have not started preparing for, and I'll be applying to join an undergraduate research program as well, mainly to get my hands on smallpox for my quest on world domination.

All in all, it seems that the first half of the year will be a lot busier than the second, but I'm already looking forward to it.

As for advice for those who are questioning the purpose of Life, Universe and Everything, I'd say, don't count on next year getting any better. It won't. But consider this, maybe the Hunt is better than the Catch?

If you need me to spell it out, it means, perhaps, the journey you take to reach the "good" no matter how hard or unpleasant it is, might actually be better than the "good".

Anyway, that's it for now. By the way, the answer is 42.

Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
