Another Year...

Actually I have nothing much that I feel like posting about. Just find that it's just another year... strangely I've worked for a pretty long time already... but the overwhelming amount of work just makes it fly by I guess. But it's only 'flying' based on a "look back and realise that I started work in June 09" kind of situation. The daily minutes, hours actually makes me tired and drained.

How can I explain myself?

It's something like, I feel energy going out of me like crazy, but the minutes and hours fly by because I simply have not enough time to do all that I want to do/ need to do. Griefs. And I'm not just talking about what I need to do for work, but also for other people around me and even for myself. Sheesh.

BUT let's not start the year with such emotions and thoughts. I'm happy to say that my quarter century age is due to come this year, but I am happy with what I have done with my life. Of course, there's more to work on, to improve, to change. But I just wanna say I'm proud of coming this far. Time to go further in 2010!!

Just to end this post on a lighter note, let me try to recap my happier moments in 2009... (It's based on my calendar records. I do not have super memory... haha!)

1 Jan 09 - Operation Marsbar =)

6-24 Jan 09 - Nepal: Amazing experience, out of this world. I had a great time with my squadmates - braving the cold, the 'waterfall' diarrhoea, the naans and maggie mee, the terrain. Loving the scenery, enjoying the tea, eating yummy dinners, talking, laughing and cheering each other on, watching shooting stars. Simply. Amazing.

26-30 Jan 09 - Fun in the sun @ Sabah with my family. Then kena burnt like lobster.

2 Feb 09 - Became radioactive for a day

7 Feb 09 - :)

10 April 09 - Yvonne and Daryl's ROM. One of my best friends! ;)

14 April 09 - Mortuary visit and viewed a full post mortem - and survived. Eeks but proud of myself.

Feb to May 09 - Weekly outings with my wonderful squadmates to various restaurants. Oooh the luxury and freedom.

7 May 09 - Passing Out Parade... a mark of completion and the proud feeling of being part of a parade. Proud of my squad.

8 May 09 - Sense of release, freedom? And yet sadness, knowing that another major part of my life has come to a close.

17 May to 20 May 09 - Chill out cruise trip with my momma. I love spending time with her.

23 May to 29 May 09 - HK and Macau... although it was rainy and mood dampening, it's the company that's important. Realised that Lowe and I 'click' as travel mates. Haha.

8 June 09 - First official day at work... the end of my super holiday... start of my nightmare job (ok, to give it some credit, I'll call it 'challenging'. Haha)

9 Aug 09 - Fortunate me, got to watch NDP live with Mel. Felt so part of my country.

16 Aug 09 - My first half marathon! I can't believe that I did it. :P

13 Dec 09 - Brother's baptism... rushed there after my 24 hour duty. And I was deeply blessed by his testimony - my bro's all grown up!

19 Dec - 24 Dec 09 - Fantastic break with a trip to Malaysia with my family. Really really really a lovely break.


All in all, I want to give thanks to God for being here in my life, through it all. =)
