Before the stroke of midnight on New Year's eve, throngs of sms(es) had already started pouring in. Simply too many to reply to. Then I chanced upon breaking news of the bombings in Bangkok. It is sad that the year has to close with another tragedy, another crisis. Since Terence was out, I took the opportunity of some "me time" after Gideon fell asleep to remember 2006. Looking back, I have nothing to complain about 2006. I made some pretty "decent" achievements at work. I visited Zurich, Lucerne, Geneva, Beijing and Shanghai. Terence & I managed a few vacations - a cruise; Bangkok and then Hong Kong. Gideon got used to school and has even attempted holiday courses! I started a blog. Etc etc. Now, looking ahead, I do have a few resolutions for the New Year. As with the countless marketing plans I've done, not all may be accomplished but at least I give myself some goals to work towards. - World peace - I know it sounds cliched but ...
- Exercise - I simply don't do enough. I will swim instead of just basking in the sun when we take Gideon to the pool.
- Temper control - especially at home.
- Holiday to Australia - I will make it come true this year for Gideon.
- Family / Work Balance - less time in the office (and at the computer at home); more time with Terence & Gideon.
- More time with friends
A Blessed New Year to all and may you get as close as possible to your resolutions; better still - REALISE them!
