回顾2009, 向2010前进.

This is such a super belated 1st post of 2010 ha.. Happy New Year!

New Year's eve, was at friend's place for bbq. Old liao, nowadays such celebrations oso dun wana go kuek shio with people. Rather spend it somewhere quietly without minus-ing the fun. Had Irritants' 1st dinner of 2010 @ 313 Somerset... it's been yeeeeons since so many of us came out together! It's a farewell dinner for our dear Ah-Gu too.. Dined at Marche, followed by self-inviting ourselves to Mr & Mrs Vintage's new abode. Played Band Hero and it was so much fun! Hope this is the 1st of many such gatherings to come in 2010 and beyond. P.s. how about going back to the court together too? =)

OK. Supposed to 回顾 2009... 'Highlights' of Yours Truly's life in 2009...

1. Me & No.10's Europe Trip 23July-15August

Definitely 1 of the biggest highlight of the year.. prob coz it's my farthest and most expensive trip as well haha.. Left our footprints on London, Zurich, Interlaken, Venice, Rome, Florence, Nice and Paris.. My fave was definitely Nice and Interlaken. Had a great time relaxing at the pebble-beach, simply love the B&B lifestyle - Breakfast & Beach. 'Scaled' the top of Europe - Jungfraujoch in Interlaken, tried the Gondola, embarking on our own Angels & Demons tour in Rome, climbed Eiffel Tower, fufilling my childhood fantasy @ Disneyland, travelling via rail and not missing a single train, taking the plane alone for 12 hours, etc...It was an enriching experience to plan everything ourselves and of coz, to go through this whole adventure together. Looking forward to more n more n more of such trips in days to come.. Our chapters this year were kindda a roller coaster..am happy that he managed to get his degree and cleared his target after all the hard work and challenges. Every flip of the page adds to the continuation of our story ahead.. keep flippin! (chim eh, haha)

2. I can't help but mention this next haha.. the many many MANY wedding dinners that I attended! I really cannot count how many in total, but definitely more than 10 in the whole year. Last quarter alone, there were at least 6-8. Happy for my friends of coz... just a little taxing on my pocket haha.. esp when I've already spent a bomb on my trip. IF I ever get married, please remember to add the inflation rate by then k haha! This year should be quite a quiet one ba hee..

3. Watching F1 live. 3 days of high-speed action not to mention the high-pitched screechings of the tyres. Oh, and going great crazy like a sec sch kid when watching Backstreet Boys haha... It was a great experience but I guess once is enuff ha.

4. Moving to Senoko. Being banished from the posh uptown to the miserable exile is no fun. Long and tiring travelling and limited choices of food. It's been 1 year already, though more or less resigned to fate but the feeling is still sucky. I really hate to have to depend on my colleagues for lifts to/fro home. Or having to seek 'refuge'. Really wish to get back to town soon.

5. My very extravagant birthday dinner, the most expensive meal I've ever eaten in my life and my still-new toy.

6. Blacking out in the mrt during peak hour... enuff said.

7. My brother 阿乐's enlistment, the first of ninja-turtle to wed and of coz, the welcoming of cutie-pie-baby 宇泽 to Earth.

Many other bits and pieces here and there as well... happy moments, heart-pain moments, gloomy moments, blissful & heart-warming moments, etc.. That's my 2009.

Resolution for 2010? I've long given up of making resolutions haha.. Make and forget, no point. Hee.. Anyhows, I just wish to lead a simple life, be happy and healthy and the same goes for all my family and friends. Duno what lies ahead, one step at a time.
