…while beginning a new chapter.

just like most people, the beginning of a new year is always a good time for me to review happenings of yesteryear - the highlights, events or memorable moments.

in 2007:

• met one of my favourite bloggers, kenny sia, and kicked the men’s asses at risk - together with nadnut.
• arrival of my new nephew, shijie (potential heartthrob-in-the-making alert).
• not one, but two, of my cousins got hitched.
• caught long-anticipated musical, phantom of the opera, with mr g.
• met jolin tsai at a media conference i was organizing.
• decided upon and made a career-related change.
• experienced my first kelong stay.
• threw caution and fear to the wind… and achieved a few other “firsts” (that you don’t need to know, of course!).
• one of my closest friend / senior got hitched too (yay!) - this will warrant a totally separate post by itself later.
• caught another long-anticipated ballet, swan lake again - this time by a different ballet company.

it was through these experiences (and, of course, many others) that i’ve grew to understand myself a little better and gained further insight on people around me. good or bad, i’m thankful that i’ve survived 2007.

looking towards the future - 2008:

• to make further advancement in career.
• to spend more time with family and friends.
• to try to keep my new year resolutions (yes, i’ve made a few!).
• to blog more regularly (i realized that there might have been less than 40 posts in total for 2007, my gosh!).

yes, missyling.wordpress.com is coming alive again after hibernating for….goodness knows how long it has been.

seeya.

welcome, 2007!

another year has passed us by. no wonder we always lament that time flies.

just like christmas eve, i’ve spent my new year eve with friends amidst our usual watering hole. the only thing different was that it was much, much messier since there were foam and string sprays aplenty.

sometime during the night, stomach flu struck me out of the blue. initially, i had thought it was my old problem of gastrics coming back to haunt me but it turned out otherwise. i don’t know which is worse - really bad gastrics or stomach flu? what luck, for it to happen on new year eve.

with the start of the new year, i think it’s only appropriate that we reflect on what has happened in the past year and think of the dreams or goals that we hope to achieve in this brand new year.

so, excuse while i go do some self-reflection and conjure up my 2007 new year resolutions.

meanwhile, have a happy new year and enjoy what’s left of the holidays.

cheers!
