2005 Review/2006 Resolutions

Milestones of 2005

1. I proposed marriage to my gf
2. Bloggers.SG took place at DXO
3. Tomorrow.SG became a resounding success
4. The Cowboy Bar was born
5. The Cowboy Bar organized Virtual Insanity, a charity halloween party and it was a spectacular success
6. I attained the next level of my professional qualification requirements
7. My grandmother died of old age
8. My uncle had a heart attack and passed away
9. My friend Sondra passed away from a rare blood disorder
10. I became a Travel Writer for Tiger Tales

All in all, 2005 was a very exciting year. There were many heartaches and triumphs, most happening within a week of each other. The saddest part of 2005 for me was the 3 deaths that occured. But this was offset by the happiness I found in my gf accepting my proposal, my new friends in the Cowboy Bar and the excitement of the Tomorrow.sg project.

My resolutions for 2005 were a total disaster - I didn’t achieve a single item…

So I’ve decided to make my resolutions for 2006 more realistic, lo and behold - here they are:

1. Hit the CPF contribution ceiling in 2006
2. Travel at least twice to a foreign country
3. Bring my wife out for a date once a week
4. Buy a car
5. Become a social volunteer and do some charity work
6. Use my awesome powers of blogging for good and never for evil
7. Improve my mandarin

#6 is the best resolution I’ve ever seen. Thumbs up.

Happy 2006!!

Wishing you a better 2006 to come!

2006 is dawning upon us, time for fresh and new beginnings! Success….and best wishes!

Happy New Year!!

Happy 2006!

Yeah, I concur. Realistic is the word. Another thing I do is to add on to my resolutions as I achieve them. Which is what I did in 2005. No resolutions at the beginning, only at the end.

Happy 2006!

Good for you! Happy new year! Best wishes in achieving those resolutions…

Happy New Year, Cowboy Caleb!

Great resolutions, I must say, especially #3 #5, #6, which are heartwarming! :)

Thanks for posting my ‘piano culture’ article.

#7’s on my list too, except make that Mandarin, Hokkien, Singlish…
