The year that was 2006

love, hate, tears, jumping for joy, new career paths, dota, pool, books, heart-felt moments, newfound bestie and support mate, blog, forever and never, weddings, plans, broken friendships, ego, laughter, joy, sadness, alcohol, more dota and pool, quitting ciggies and leading a healthy life.

these keywords draws the basic outline of my year.


Two heartbreaks.

One cute dog (whom i've since lost, doggie must've left Riana Green basement car park. Even food can't lure it out).

Egoistic men brought my life to a standstill.

Ached over a friend that ended up only wanted to use me for his own gain.

In turn, found a new bestie in form of Matt, a.k.a support mate. And yes, of course, who can forget Boon, my new bff (coughs).

Fell in love all over again, again. With you.

Suffered for 3 days under the Fruit Fast programme, just to detox.. and ended up quitting cigarettes. Alcohol has been consumed in minimal amounts (1 mug of beer a week).

Felt more accepted by Kheong's family, since his sister's wedding two weeks ago.

Found a workplace where i finally belong. An industry which i can see myself being in for the next 3-4 years; at least until i retire from employment, and start employing myself :D

Got my own pool cue. A gorgeous white beauty.

Addicted to dota.


What i've learnt in 2006:
1. To give my all in everything i do.
2. Not to give up and give in.
3. Stay strong, as a woman.
4. That friends come and go, but true friends stay a lifetime.
5. No matter what, my family comes first.
6. i cannot be so choosy when it comes to work anymore. if it's not working out, start fixing it.
7. The best boss is someone who understands that people make mistakes, guides them, supports them, listens to them, stays sober during working hours, and gives a pat on their back when they deserve it.
8. He's still my love.
9. To drive in kl (it's not easy, okay)
10. How to give up a friendship when it's over, and how to walk away with my dignity intact.


Another year gone, a new one approaches.

Will this coming year be better than the last? Will this bring more sadness or happiness?

Will i be brave enough to weather it through?

10 more days.
Nothing more than a heartbeat.

Then it'll be a brand-spanking new year.

A new journey, for you and me!

Here's to a Merry merry christmas and crazy new year! May this journey be smoother than the last *fingers crossed*
