  • 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

    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!
