...for the New Year?All my life, I have never believed much in making 'em.
I am not saying they are wrong... But, perhaps, I have never bothered keeping them ever :P ~ those made over the New Year. I don't know why. Throughout the year, I often resolve to change... whenever the Holy Spirit convicts me of something to repent of - so that my life is pleasing to God. But at New Year? I usually make faith-lists, commit the year ahead unto Him, and ask Him to help me grow in all areas.
Heh... but if I were to make one for the year ahead - it would be not to bite (and peel) my fingers of their skins (near the finger-nail). Sorry, I know that is gross - but that's a extremely bad habit I've cultivated since I was a kid in the kindy... I'm not sure if it has got something to do with my subconscious or personal insecurities or what. I do even more of that unconsciously when I am nervous, stressed or emotionally upset. Viciously attack my thumbs with my teeth and fingernails. (Sounds so horrible) In fact, I am always doing it nowadays, so my thumbs are very ugly.
This brings back funny memories... Tailo used to suddenly grab my thumbs just to hold them up in the light, examine their 'interesting' contour...exclaim over my 'creativity' and rebuke me (such a tortured ah mui I was...@_@ ~ but I know, I know... he really cared). I'd squeal and try to wriggle my thumbs out of his grasp, but his grip strength was obviously greater than mine.
Used to peel off all my nails too - but since I've managed to bring that under control and I hardly do it anymore... THERE IS HOPE FOR MY THUMBS!
I'd like to start having pretty thumbs for once ~ to match other pretty bits of myself ~ (ehem, I hope that didn't sound too perasan) therefore my, um... New Year resolutions... would be... not to bite and peel my fingers anymore...
God, please help me.
Friends, please help me... if you see me doing that unconsciously, please remind me: NO PEELING.
