Time on Earth

Welcome 2006

光阴似箭
The world learn a new word, ‘Tsunami’, before crossing over to 2005 when thousands lost their love ones in the worse natural disaster of recent times.

2005 does have its fair share of events to show for:
1. We have a new pope.
2. Prince Charles got a new wife.
3. My beloved Liverpool won the Champion League in the most dramatic come back of all time. 4. Terrorists still go round taking innocent lives.
5. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie admitting their relationship.

For Singapore:
1. NKF saga should be the most talked about event in Singapore for 2005 I suppose.
2. The approval of building TWO Intergraded Resorts (casinos).
3. Singapore won the Tiger Cup.
4. Some brutal murder cases which put our law enforcers to the test.
5. Fann Wong and Christopher Lee admitting their relationship.

As for me, I got nothing much to show for in 2005.
I scraped through my first year in school, bearing making the cut. Nevertheless, I passed and move on to the next stage of my chase for ‘the paper’.

This is what I wrote at the beginning of 2005:

“I hope to get fitter with more exercise and healthier diet. Hopefully, I can get a better pay raise this year, as the last was miserable, so that I can go for more diving trips. It would be nice to find a special someone too *blush*”

Failed to increase my fitness level, only thing increased was my waistline. L Bought myself a heart-rate monitor, planning to use it to obtain the correct workout level but that little gadget still sits nicely in the box. :P

As for the special someone, I think my cupid needs to go for a LASIK operation, get a pair of glasses or have mercy on me with his arrows. Be more accurate in 2006 PLEASE!!!
One thing good did happen and that was getting a raise. A better raise than the last one (actually any raise will be better than the last as the last was horrible).

2006, what should my resolution be? Guess it’s still the same old stuffs but I do hope to pick up an additional skill or two, like rollerblading (before I get too old for this), cooking?? J
It’s a better year every year!! CHEERS!
