The entry that probably doesn't mean anything to anyone else other than myself
What a year 2007 has been.
I have never travelled so much within a year before; I started the year off in New York, then Bangkok, Venice, Paris, Valencia, and of course Singapore (three times). Almost went to Netherlands. We have been preaching our clients to offset those carbon footprints, but I obviously don’t walk that talk. Haha. Work has been bittersweet; I thoroughly enjoyed what I was doing, made loads of close friends, but the crazy hours had indeed taken a toll on me and made me realised that I am not as young as I think I am. And those dark cirles and countless wrinkles... (I still prefer to call them laugh lines) Sigh.
On the personal front, I am very lucky and blessed to have my family and loved ones ‘around’ me, and recent events made me realised that life is really transient, and I cannot take everything for granted. I have also had new-found admiration for my mum and her beliefs since the funeral, and have also learnt to be more receptive, and respect my brother (a little bit) more. I am also still learning how not to nag so much, and not to be so self-centred and -opinionated all the time.
My new year resolution
1. take good care of myself and my loved ones
2. be truthful and faithful to myself and others
3. be more careful with how I spend my money
4. do more of my own ‘thing’ when it comes to design (no more ‘getting influenced’!)
5. Stop acting cute and be 27 instead of 17
6. Call home at least once a week and keep my family updated with my life
7. Try not to nag so much
8. Exercise, exercise, exercise!
9. Don’t be lazy and be more organised, no last minute work, less TV
10. Be happy
That’s all I can think of, and I’ll try my best to stick to it. Maybe I will write them down on my new moleskin. Yeah! Alright, have a fabulous new year my dear friends whom I’ve neglected for a while now. Take care and here’s wishing everyone the best of health, prosperity and progress for our nation.
