Time to lay down some groundrules for 2009 before the Bull starts racing away:
- Start living a healthier life by sleeping earlier - before 12 <-- so far so good!
- Consistent savings plan - SGD$ X / mth (obvious reasons why it is X)
- Start my investment portfolio - to hit SGD$ Y value by end 2009 <--time to pick up some tips from you guys reading this space, please help hor!
- Write up personal Biz plans - target to have at least 1 per quarter
- Reduce waistline - target 30"
- ABC - personal stuff
- DEF - personal stuff
Looking back...Year 2008 hasn't been a good year for me.
The Good:
- Got what I wanted from D Day
- Managed to maintain sub 5 for SCSM 42195
- HTC THD
- MU won the double
- Another healthy year
- I'm officially an UNCLE now
The Bad:
- Losing Ah Di
- Crappy timing for Sundown
- PS3 - it wasn't really a great buy, considering that I don't really use it much after the first 2 months
- Missing out the UCL Finals...
The Notable:
- 2nd HK Trip - enjoyed it much more than the 1st
- Vietnam Trip - overall pretty much enjoyable
- Finally bought a new PC for Dad to use - I thought I might use it too but turned out otherwise
I found myself too embedded into my work, until the point that there is NO LIFE outside work. I always worry about completing my work when I am supposed to relax during the weekend, and can't really get stuff out of my head when I should be playing. Only realised this when I started to write the above list, and could not recall much that I can put in other than work (which I try not to as far as possible).
It's really easy to say "I have been too engrossed with work, let's go out and have a break", but to simply sink into the same whirlpool after the break, which renders the break meaningless.
Time to start living, and remembering every great moment as it comes along, and to make year 2009 worth remembering. At least make my job easier when I write this list again in 2010.
Perhaps Time to learn and try some new stuff to inject some badly needed freshness in my life! I guess I ain't so busy (or should not be so busy) during the weekends.
