Goodbye 2009!

Though today is not the first day of New Year, its the first working / back-to-school day. Hence, I finally had the chance to pen down my first words in my 2010 diary.

oh but wait...before i do that, i glanced through my 2009 planner cum diary. it's always nice to remiensce a little.

flashback to a year ago:
I did exercise quite a bit in 2009. hip-hop dance classes, hot yoga, jogging, gym memberships. hmmm...i like!
But, I also drank quite a lot. Those K garden nights, after work drinks at Boat Quay and the drinking sessions with Audrey at Overeasy and Club Street. But I must say it was really in the name of good FUN!
I also kinda find my direction in work..Thank God for everything. Talk about light at the end of the tunnel. Finally, I see some light. Shall continue to work hard in 2010!
2009 was also a year of short trips..and the most beach vacations! ooh-la-la!!
Feb was a crazy Bangkok getaway with the K garden gang..so you can imagine the partying and fun we had!
And then came April ...and oooh...We Love Bali! went with my dearest pple.. the 4 days flew by real fast..and each day was like Paradise.
Had a short trip in Aug @ Batam with Greg and his branch.. Oh ..alcohol..beer...beach...the best combi!
Late Nov was Krabi and Bangkok with Greg..and three letters to summarise: FAB!!!!
We went overdraft on beach and island hopping and tadah, came back with a nice tan!
The snorkelling and seafood in Krabi was awesome. The parties and shopping in Bangkok was fantastic. I simply love Thailand!
To close off the year, a few of my dearest pple end up in Bintan! This trip was a pretty relaxing and chill out trip... i enjoyed the drinking and the chatting thru out the night with all my dearest pple.

Time really flies. Every day, every month, every year seems to pass by so fast that there's not enough time to spent. True enough, as i reflect back on the past year, i realise that i did not spent enough time on family. I should have also invested more into personal development and career.

I hope to bring all these into the new year and each year will be a better year that the last.
