Few more hours and bye bye 2004, hello 2005!

Looking back the 12 months, a lot of thiings had happened be it on me or my love ones. You gain some you lose some. Friends comes and goes, everything is constantly changing around you, and sad to say, its beyond your control.

I guess we juz have to accept the way things are. Facing the reality is definetly not easy and a shitty feeling, but dun think we should be a hermit crab and stay in your own world or tiny little island and turn ur back against reality.

I learnt that and every single event that happen in my life is a lesson learnt and will definetly remember it deeply and not to commit the same mistake again...

Been in this currently company for almost a yr, i dun deny that I've learnt a lot of things especially in terms of human relationship and work. With the new management team, things aren't getting any easier... in fact I would say life here is getting tougher and tougher. A piece of advice from an ex-colleague, grab hold of all the opportunities you have and learn as much things as possible. When its time to go, and when you feel that you are ready, juz leave... which I totally agree with him... I do admit that this is not a job that I enjoy doing, but the pple I meet, and the projects I handle is one of the force that will pull me in, and endure on... so since there is a major re-structuring soon and chances are I'll not be handling the projects I'm doing now, then I'll leave and pursue in my dreams.

With a strings of festive holidays coming up, everyone else is attached, and yes you've guessed it, I'm single again...its ok... I know God had already reserve the perfect one for me. No worries, I've got a great bunch of good friends and my beloved Pa and Mummy with me, and I feel so loved. *smiles*

So, as I've mentioned earlier, I'll be going for the op in Feb which is a big step to take, to tell you the truth, I'm afraid of the side effect, the worst scenerio is that I'll go blind... Choy! touch wood touch wood... I really hope everything goes well... and next time I can mesmerise you with my mega-watt eyes *puke puke* OMG there comes my nonsense again...

Another thing is that I aim to get my driving licence. By hook or by crook die die also must get it...and this time I'm not joking man! Hey you! Stop laughing ah! though have got no car for me, but still thats not a good excuse.

With me signing 2 insurance policy this recently, I will now officially announce that my shopping spree days are over... no more shoes and bags for me. All the angels, please protect me from the devil, when the $hopping-monster comes attacking, must protect me ah....

As usual, my New Year resolution is that to stay happy everyday, worries stay far far away from me, every single of my love ones stay pink of health, May God's blessing be with everyone and wish that I'll get selected for the job.... *wink*

2005, here I come ~~~

A little announcement to make...

I'm going for my Lasik Operation in February, after Chinese New Year.

Went for a check up on Xmas Eve, after a series of test, the doc said that I'm a suitable candidate for the op. The chances of me getting a 6/12 eye sight is 99%, for a perfect 6/6 is about 80%.

The op will take two days, one day per eye and a follow up on the third. After which, I can officiall ditched my glasses and contect lenses and welcome myself to a clearer sight of the future... :)

Having mixed feelings right now...excited that I can get a close to perfect eyesight, paranoid as I dunno I'll suffer any side effects though the surgeon did assure me that the chances are quite slow base on the conclusion he derived after examine my eyes. But then again, you can't cross out all the possibilities.

So I guess I'll go take a few pix of me in glasses this few weeks to keep as memories... think about it.... my good companion has been with me for the past 13yrs...

Will post the pix soon....

Meeting up with long lost friends indeed bring back all the good old memories we used to shared....

At this present phrase in life, looking back the things you have done, the things that made you cried, the silly pranks you used to played, can't help but to smile and left pondering "Wow! those were the days..."

Looking what each other had achieved in life, you can't help but to believe in dismay that time do change a person and his thinking... how a self-procliamed and well-knowned Ah Beng can be so successful in life now. Who can ever believe that when in the past, everyone gave up hope and condemn him? Sometimes you can't help but to laugh at those foolish things that you have done...

Chocolate Overdose

Juz finish our Christmas lunch in the office. The food was good. The eclair was fantastic. After which, we had a gift exchange session. This year, everyone under the influence of your truly, ask for Royce chocolate. We had a wide variety. Champaign, Dark, milk, white etc���. Here comes the best part, we had log cake sponsored by my colleague, Peter. Bought it from Goodwood Park Hotel. My goodness! The brandy in the cake can make drunk. 5 star for the cake. Actually, it tastes more like chocolate rather than a log cake due to its richness and texture.

For once, I have to admit, I'm suffering from Chocolate Overdose and I dun mind putting on a few pounds although that means the boxercise class I had on Monday have gone down the drain���

Oh ya! I got my wish come true. A shopping spree! Got shopping voucher and a piglet mug from April.

Thank you April! You are the best��� hugzzz hugzzz

A Purpose Driven Life



Been reading this book call The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren.

This is an interactive book or so the author say. It is a guide to a 40-day spirtual journet that will enable the reader to discover the answer to life's most important question : What on earth am I here for? So by the end of 40 days, the reader will understaand the big picture - how all the pieces of our life fit together.

The author claims that one reason most books don't transform us is that we are so eager to read the next chapter that, we don't pause and take time to seriously consider what we have just read. We rush to the next chapter without reflecting on what we have just read. So he put us to a little challenge : to only read a chapter a day.

Ironically, after reading for 5 chapters, it answer to the question that has been going through my mind for the past few months. I'm quite taken aback, but still I believe that God's work, that its not pure coincidence.

I really do learn alot from the book, and I want to walk outta that shadow, all those problems that have been bothering me for months...

Once I finish the book, which is 17 January 2005 (praying to keep to the schedule everyday) I'll tell you how this book has tranform me....

My conclusion after the movie, dun ever watch it during sch holiday! 90% of the hall is filled with sch kids...damn they are noisy...scary oso screm, not scary oso scream! I was so intimidated by them and nothte movie...the two mah-rock sitting beside me made things worse. I think he super scared. Keep saying "Turn around u idiot! Dun go there, the ghost is there!" Hello?! If the lead dun go, how to make the movie exciting? Dumbass!!!

The movie on the whole is ok. I would give a 3 3/4 popcorn

I enjoyed myself. Had lunch at Wan Hao restaurant with Pa, Ma and Korkor...shop for a while before heading down to gram's place.

2day is also the birthday of handsome baby Aloysius...he is still so cute, chubby and handsome... oh I finally got to see baby Sarah. wow! she is huge! Only 6 weeks old but look like 3 mth old... My goodness! Shes such a pretty girl...

We had dinner and then was the bday cake part. Ah Yin (Aloysius's cantonese name) and me each had our own individual cake baked by Nancy. ok this is the sad part... both our cake have 4 candles each....but mine is 2 big candles 2 small candles... sob sob... I'm old liaoz... relize that once you hit 20, you juz wished that there will be less candle on your bday cake...

I also got lots of birthday greetings from all my beloved friends like Connie, Daniel, Remy, Lawrence, Jerry, Vincent, Jess, Suchuan, Jianhui, Donny, Alex, Junbin, Weijun, Dexter, Yisiang, Qian Ling, Yaozu, Benjamin, Shirlene, Don, Alicia etc... be it sms, calling me or email... thanx a million... I love you all... hugz hugz...

Gerri jiejie...thanx for the watch, will meet up with Jo to collect them... I know you are busy with can-boy, take care...

This yr was a little different from the past years, no partying for me, except on Friday night, met up with my sec sch mates for dinner and karaoke...I get to spend time with my family on this special occation, especially since its been a long time my family get to sit down together to have a decent meal together.. I guess as you age, its no so much of what present you get, or how you celebrate but its all the greetings and wishes you can from your friends..and I get to spend quality time with my love ones - Pa, Ma and Korkor! So what else can I ask for?
