(The last one)


"It's almost over!"

The year 2009 is almost over.
I'm afraid to say but for me it was the WORST and the most AWEFUL year ever....
I hated it so badly that in the middle of September I already got tired of everything.



WORST 3:

3. Romantic relationship breakdown
I'm not gonna say anything about that....
But I am determined on not getting into a relationship until I finish MA course at least.

2. The lost of MR Wagon
In Jan. my younger sister got a car accident in Saitama and my mom's lovely car died.
(Dad in 2008 decided to let us use mom's car since in Gunma it's almost impossible to live without a car.)
I was drinking with a friend of mine in my apt. that night and I was going to drive him to the station the next day, but due to the accident it was impossible and I could never see the car again.
The good thing, though, was my sister didn't get injured at all.
We now have another car but I still miss my mom's MR Wagon.

1. Strained back
In the early morning on Jan. 19th my back suddenly got a sharp pain and I fell into my bed.
After that I literally couldn't get up for three days. Even going to the bathroom was a great pain.
At first I didn't know what the hell was going on...later I got to know that I got a strained-back.
Since this incident happened after we lost mom's car, I needed to ask a friend of mine to take me to the clinic.
I didn't like it and I felt so sorry for her.
I'd been to the clinic for three months and finally my back cured.
BUT in the beginning of August it came again...
and it actually caused even more complicated problems in Indonesia where I got H1N1 as well...
I freaking hated it.


I hope the next year 2010 will be a good one for me...seriously.



BEST 3:

3. TOEIC score goal achieved
I took TOEIC test on my birthday this year, hoping the score would be a great birthday present for me.
From Sep. 10 to 12 I joined English training camp in Akagi and I guess it helped me a lot!
My goal was to get higher than 950...and I did it! :)
It surely was my belated but BIGGEST birthday present.

2. The meeting with Ms. K.
In April I happened to sit next to her in one of the required classes for teaching course.
We had some group works to do and it was I that first talked to her to get the work done together.
I at first thought she was a very smart and intelligent person and would never get along with me, but I was wrong.
Ms. K. and I got very close to each other, talking in turn on topics we're interested in.
I worked with her in a cram school for three months; we had experienced so many things and we used to stay and talk at the first-food restaurant until the sky got dim or the Sun rises.
We've studied together so many times, and we cheered up each other so many times.
We've done so many fun things together, and each of them is one of my unforgettable memories...
A thousand times of saying thank you wouldn't express how mush my gratitude towards her is.
She now is like my sister...I respect her so much as well.
I am sure I will have a great time taking the same classes with her again in the graduate school next year.

1. The opportunity to see the Prodigy's performance!
My friend and I went to Warrior's Dance Fest. in Makuhari in Sep.
There we saw performances of Hadouken!, Pendulum, Prodigy and more.
I fell in love with Prodigy one day in May when I was listening to ICRT, my favorite online radio station from Taiwan.
Then my friend borrowed me some of its CDs and I got addicted to all of the songs, lol.
One of my friends in Nagano told me I should see its performance at least one time in my life
and I think it was sooooo true.
Pendulum played Voodoo People and the whole audience went mad and danced like crazy.
Prodigy's performance was the last one in the fest. and we waited and waited and waited...
Now there they came, with oragne spiders here and there on stage.
The performance was AWESOME....I shouted, jumped and danced as hell.
They played "Take Me To The Hospital" as their encore and I was super happy because I love the song so freaking much!
It was worth paying $50, for sure...


Thank you for all of you my friends for supporting me at all the time..
Without each one of you my 365 days in this year would have been all terrible.
I wish you all a great new year! :)
