[张智成 - 让时间开口]

Christmas over.. another countdown is
about to begin.. yes.. New Year that is..

ending of 2006.. looking back at the wish
list I've created for myself.. proud to say..
I've somehow achieved most of what has
listed.. not a bad year to go by..

some hits and misses along the way.. hit
a high of converting from my temp status
to a permanent contract.. materialized my
wish for a stable job.. hard works do pay
off.. but not without the helps from people
whom I work with..

misses.. even though how hard I've try to
keep the misses as low as possible.. on one
motto that I've follow so far.. these misses
gave me another perspective in failing..

not to hold any regrets when I look back..

honestly, there are many circumstances
that I would have handle more appropriately..
yet, I've lost my cool.. and eventually ruined
whatever was planning for..

a life long lesson to learn.. making mistakes
are not uncommon.. as long as the same
mistake won't repeat times and times again..

for this coming 2007.. nothing much in my
mind.. except for 2 major decisions that will
change my (slack) lifestyle..

first and foremost.. the decision to go through
my knee ligament reconstruction surgery..
something that has been bothering me for two
years or so.. kind of being handicapped by this
problem of mine.. was a difficult decision.. and
also an expensive one.. haha..

and lastly.. finally decided to further my study..
not a degree though.. just a specialist diploma..
back to my old school.. haha.. kind of trying out
whether I hold any interest in this area of work..
besides, it's only a 10 months course.. hehe..
and of course.. still need approval from school..

2007 wish list kind of empty..

it doesn't really matter how much that I've wished..
but how the 365 days gone by.. good or bad.. happy
or sad.. another roller coaster ride.. =)

well.. at very least.. I still remain like what 2006 is..
in any time that you need someone to listen.. I'm just
a phone call/sms/msn message away.. as always.. =)

Happy New Year..!!

TaKe CaRE!!

[李圣杰 - 最近]

Merry Christmas..!! another year older..
this blog that is.. of course, me too.. =p

well.. Jas, ain't you happy that every year
I got to say thank kew you for this blog..
third year running.. though the posts had
become less regular.. but still will keep the
habit to update once in a while.. especially
when you (pig lao da) and your sidekick,
Steph.. chasing after me for updates.. got
to squeeze all my brain juices out, to create
a new post to "entertain" both of you.. free
of charge some more..

a little update on the past weeks.. went
Sentosa with my colleagues straight after
performing night shift on Thursday morning..
weather was fine in the morning.. but not in
the afternoon.. where it started to rain..


Photo courteousy of Sharin

spent the whole afternoon sweating out
by the beach.. frisbee.. volleyball.. and..

Photo courteousy of Sharin
learning how to fly.. like real.. haha..!!
opps.. the first time showing myself here..

dinner at Vivocity Carl's Jr before heading
home.. drop dead tired.. wake up later in the
evening to do a quick packing up for my trip
the next day..

on board of T(ige)R112 on Friday afternoon..

not without my basic neccesities..

my pod.. book.. windbreak.. and also most
importantly, the camera.. always got something
to snap while on board..

this is also the very first time traveling alone..
reached the new Suvarnabhumi airport after two
hours plus of flight.. although new.. but directions
given on the sign sucks BIG time.. lost my way a
little while trying to exit the arrival hall.. definitely
need lots of improvement..

nothing much has changed in Bangkok.. traffic still
as heavy on weekends.. was stuck in the traffic jam
for more than two hours before checking into my
hotel room.. head down to Suam Luam for a little
shop-a-round and settle my hungry stomach..

met Eve and her colleagues at Sampeng the next
morning.. they arrived on an earlier flight the day
before.. interesting peoples I would say.. it's been
quite some time since I last catched up with her..
went over to Chatuchak next.. the old sector..


the iconic clock tower of Chatuchak weekend
market.. a place that can use as a meet up
point if anyone get missing in the group.. haha..

suppose to meet up with Stelvin (my NS mate)
at RCA on Saturday night.. but was too tired to
head down.. well.. at least he was dead drunk
before I would have reached, in any case.. haha..

Chatuchak again on Sunday morning with Eve
& Co.. tried venture the new sector.. but nothing
much compared to the old one.. actually.. there's
nothing there.. everyone prefers the old one..

went Siam Centre after that.. had our lunch at
Coca, before heading over to Siam Square and
MBK.. while the three girls carry on with their
own activities.. I went idling around while waiting
for Sharon to arrive.. as she was stopping over
for a night before heading off to HongKong.. envy..
had dinner and a little grocery shopping..

wonder what is this?

this is actually a single trip MRT token.. cool huh??
it works almost like our Ezlink.. one of my mode of
transport over there.. try not to take taxi.. as it's
more expensive, since I'm traveling alone most of
the time.. it's either BTS or MRT for me..

told you so.. I just love snapping pictures on plane..
maybe it's because, above the linen of clouds.. it's a
place where we less often get to appreciate..

back in Singapore with thunderstorm welcoming us..
non-stop for two consecutive days.. so cooling.. till I
fall sick.. even till now.. still yet to recover.. luckily I'm
still on leave.. all the way till 2nd Jan 2007.. hahaha..

this is a very long post.. ok lah.. shall stop here.. shall
write about my '07 resolutions on the next update.. =)

I believe I can fly..

TaKe CaRE!!

[Corrinne May - Journey]

I'm back.. from my long awaited break..
it feels really great to get everything off
my back.. well.. except for the backpack
I was carrying.. nonetheless, a rather
enjoyable trip..

things not going on well for my laptop..
despite performing a major rescue to
remove the nagging spy ware.. it seems
like, there's much more need to be done
to get things right.. formatting will be the
worst case scenario.. hopefully I'm able
to back-up my stuffs..

and the battery is dead again.. sian..

shall update more about the happenings
for the past few days when I get these
problems solved.. headache sia..

TaKe CaRE!!

[Beyonce Knowles - Irreplaceable]

it's December.. a month full of holidays..
2 public holidays to be exact.. at least
half of the month won't be working..
clearing my annual leaves and also due
to department shut down over Christmas
till New Year period.. it's gonna be a long
long break away from work.. especially
when mine will be extended till at least
mid February.. depending on outcome..

10 more days till my flight to Bangkok..
kind of looking forward to this long awaited
break.. but seems to be bothered by some
unfinished works.. this feeling is killing me..
hopefully I'll be able to get rid of these by
next week..

some changes took place in work.. changes
in management.. changes in my role and
responsibilities.. it's time to start learning
to adapt to them.. starting all over again..

well.. since it's a month of celebration.. let's
all enjoy.. all the way till New Year.. =)

TaKe CaRE!!
