Happy 2012!!!

2011 had been a fabulous year for me. I did things which I never did before, I felt things I never felt before. In short, it was a really shioked roller coaster ride, with happening stuff occuring along the way.

In 2011, I...

1. Passed my driving on the 6th attempt!!!
2. Started a YouTube channel on beauty
3. Joined a 5km fun run, followed by a 21km marathon, SCMS2011!!! Lost 8kg after training for SCMS2011.
4. Had doubts about my old job, wondering if I could manage. Then I got a new job, starting in Jan 2012.
5. Meet up with a lot of long time no see friends.
6. Did lasik and achieved 6/6 vision!
7. Traveled to 3 countries which I never been before, Taiwan (Taipei), Korea (Seoul) and Thailand (Hatyai).
8. Dated 1 wrong guy, attracted 1 nice shy guy, blind date with another super shy guy, eteract with yet another self-proclaimed shy guy. What's with these shy guys??? Lol. Another thing in common for them, they were never in a relationship before.
9. Hug more guys than I ever expected... Chippendales hotties, Abercrombie & Fitch cuties

In short, it wasn't a bad year for me, in fact I think it's the best one so far.

Let's review my targets and resolutions.

Resolutions:

2. Show more enthusaism for my job
• I tried for my old job, it didn't work. I'm really looking forward to my new job!!!
3. Maintain my blogs regularly

4. Be less annoying and be less easily annoyed by others

5. Show more love and less anger
• I showed a lot of love by joking and making my friends happy. Not so much to my family.
6. Do not over splurge

• Hmm.... did I procrastinate a lot? Can't remember
8. Sleep early, by 12mn latest
• It worked when I was jogging regularly. Now I'm back to night owl...
9. Work faster.

• Yeap, I napped less, or rather I napped for a short while. Can't do that for my new job now.

2. Get JLPT4 or Makeup Cert or HP-UX II cert
• All are short term courses, shouldn't be too difficult!!!

• I clocked 4 hrs for SCMS2011, Sundown is at night, 3.5hrs is way too nice for myself.
4. Save at least $100 per month for rainy days.
• This should keep my splurging habit in check.

All right, that's all for my first 2012 post.

Happy New Year!!!

I'm really blessed

I really do think I'm super blessed.

I had for months, trying to wriggle out of my current situation, that is, my tough job. I ashamed to say, I really can't take the technical load, and furthermore, I really feared the standby work.

I kept wanting to find a job before I get started on standby, and my prayers was answered. It was really a wish came through.

My friend Jensen recommended me this job, not only was the job scope something I was used to doing years ago, they could match my current pay! That was really blessing!!!

I wonder if the people upstairs had anything to do with this... coz recently, while my whole family was in Hatyai, the huat cake was mysteriously cleaned up! It was supposed to be there for a year, hence a lot of ash fell on it.

I must really pray harder now...
