Quick Updates

I've just returned from taiwan & bkk with 3 boxes of food, and a bag filled with new clothes. The shopping queen is damn happy! :)

Home seems so comfy to me, after not being around for like 12 days. The last longest trip i went to was Melbourne, which lasted for 10 days. I broke my longest record :)

Trip to taiwan was an eye-opener. I met new friends in the tour group and we suggested going for an Europe trip next year.

Lots of shopping fun and shivering cold in the mountains. Temp dropped to nearly 5 deg and i only wore a down jacket with long sleeved blouse. A cup of hot milo was like heaven sent. I experienced my first earthquake, which we were not fully aware of, until the shopping center made an announcement to apologise for the shake. Hah.

My friends & i were joking that if we died on the spot, we certainly didn't know why, cos we were too engrossed in shopping! Thanks for all the sweethearts who smsed me immediately to check if i was okay ;)

Next immediate trip was to fly to BKK with fun loving peeps.

We nuaed together at Koh Samed beach, floated together in the sea, had many a*hem sensual talks (i certainly learnt alot more abt how men think and react! ha!), had my first time riding on an ATV and sharing a rocky motorbike ride together (YES, 3 of us squeezed into a poor auto motorbike haha) to some secluded cliff for a christmas countdown with sparklers. Was one of my best cosiest Christmas celebrations that i will never forget. Simple yet nice. Not forgetting to mention the great Christmas dinner at Spring and the hilarious games we played. Woohoo!

Only regret was not having a chance to meet WL and SY for a good christmas meal together. Another time :)

To be honest, before these 2 trips, alot of questions were rumbling through my mind and i had a hard time figuring out what i wanted, what to do etc etc.

Before the trips, i made a silent promise to myself that once i'm back, all thoughts will be untangled and i could start my 2010 on a fresh note.

Thankfully throughout these trips, i had a few quiet moments with myself and managed to figure things out.

Most importantly, i feel, is to be happy with my life, laugh alot, and don't waste the pretty.

I've made a final, but firm, decision to close a painful chapter in my life that i quietly refused to let go of previously. I am certainly proud of myself that my life is getting better and better. In fact, nothing can be worse after you get out of the shit. Trust me. You'll be super empowered.

First thing when i got home was to set very important standards for myself that i will follow through religiously and set some goals for 2010 that i vowed to achieve.

I'll need to bring back the determination i had at work back to my life. Alot of decision makings i have to face, but this time, i shan't escape. Need time to draw out the best plan though.

Looking forward to the courses that i will be signing up for (salsa dancing, personal make up course), and the parties that i will still be attending :)

Just wana share these unimportant, but life-changing standards about me to all of you. Not trying to impress anybody here, just wana throw all these thoughts out of my mind and update everyone (after M.I.A for like 12 days haha).

Photos will be uploaded soon. Tons of them. Got to spend time picking out the more interesting ones :)

A happy belated Christmas to all of you out there. Hope it was an enjoyable and cosy celebration for you as well.

Love ya all. And yes, life's great :)
