My summary of year 2008!

Ok I'm late for my own year end review. Well it's how I am as usual, late for everything. My company's kpi review also is like out of schedule for every year , so ermmm I think this is my nature. I'm always late!!! Yeas 2008 is like a very bad year overall for everyone. The economy downturn, people losing job, greedy people left off the hook, recession hitting all around the world. So I will think that it's a bad year overall for the world. All this happens because of human greed!

Human greed leads to a lot of bad and evil thing. This recession and economy downturn happened because of human greed as well. Those bankers are at fault for most of it. They should be penalised but most of them are left off the hook. So I must really remember to not greed in my life. I will try to remind this to myself everyday.

The following is my highlight for 2008:
1. Traveled to Thailand twice on 2008. Once is Bangkok and Krabi the next. LOL.... To tell you the truth I like Thailand a lot. The people are quite pleasant and friendly. They are service oriented and they treat you well and valuable. I'm going back to Bangkok this coming March for a short trip. Krabi is one of the best place I traveled, so I'll be back for sure in the future. Rock climbing baby!!
2. Went to Singapore during first half of the year. It was short trip but it was great!! It was a fun trip there considering I don't like Singapore that much.
3. I broke my first bone in my life!!! I broke my right hand metacarpal during futsal. Yeah a lot of people say I shouldn't break my hand when I'm using my foot to play futsal. yeah yeah, but it's a contact sport so accidents do happen =p.
4. I improved my tennis a lot. My fav shot is of course my forehand, but my one handed backhand is getting all the time as well. Need more practice after my broken bone.
5. I started my Lego collection again. haha my childhood dream of owning star wars lego is completed... I have the best of all, the Imperial Star Destroyer!
6. Nearly broke my company policy of MC QUOTA! ROFLMAO! This is probably the year that I fall sick a lot. Tonsillities twice, and the broken hand :'(
7. Hating my job more lol
8. Owning a lot more jersey haha. One of the jersey that I owned is signed by Robbo during the Masters Football Asia.
9. Seeing my idol Federer up close. Too bad can't get his siggy but seeing him upclose is enough for me to be happy. Yeah it sounds ghey! =p but I think it's my girly side haha.
10. Invested in stupid stocks without good fundamental lol. So lesson learnt shouldn't repeat the mistake again. Must invest in dividend stocks.


That's all generally for 2008, alot more to add but that's all I can think of so far. Bring on 2009!!

Xmas 2008

Xmas is such a happy festive. I still remember when I was young, xmas is such a happy day for me. I still remember opening the legos and toys that I get from my parents and my auntie. It's such a happy day! I'm happy as well during xmas this year but just not that childlike happy if you know what i mean.

It's weird that when we're children all we care about is having fun, loving your parents. But when you get older, the fun part is getting lesser and lesser. We get more weight on our shoulder where we forget about the fun part. Life is so short that we must always remember that it's fun ! Life that is dull is such a boring thing that I for sure don't want to live like that haha. This is a thing that I must remember everyday.

Get a few presents for this xmas..... gift exchange program. Thanks to all that contributed the presents!! Let's do it again next year!

IP MAN!

IP Man..... it's the latest martial art movie on the screen. Initially I really thought it's pronounced as I, P Man or orang IP =p. Internet protocol man LOL. Ok he's called Ip Man. Ip is pronounced as Yip and the Man is something like Mun. The movie is about the person's life. He's the grandmaster of "wing chun" kungfu. He started to teach wing chun kungfu to alot of people and the kungfu is still being practised until today. And the most significant of all he's the master of Bruce Lee. Yes, Bruce Lee that Jeet Kun Do founder.

The movie has a good balance between martial art and also personal life of the guy. It's not like some certain movie where it just focuses on the martial art i.e fearless. Donny Yen do show some great kungfu in every movie that he acted so far. This movie is no exception as well. He played Ip Man's role very well IMO.

All I can advise is to go watch this movie. It's my best chinese movie for the year and certainly the last chinese movie that I'll watch this year. What a way to end the year!

My 26th Birthday!

Wow at a blink of an eye I'm already 26! I really couldn't believe that I'm 26. Most of the time I think myself as 23. It's like a blink of an eye I've passed 8 years since my SPM. OMG!!! I'm living my life to the fullest now. Shouldn't waste my time of my life. Someone told me that once the age of 26 your time will become even faster. It's such a scary thoughts! Ok enough of my age rantings =p.

My birthday wish, I hereby wish that everyone around me is happy and a peaceful world! I truly enjoy my birthday very very much!!! Happy days =)
