Dec 2011

December.. Time of the year again to prepare for Christmas and the new year.. Though this year Christmas didn't seem to be that big.. Somehow seem to be quite busy at work.. Couldn't really enjoy the festive period.. Might have been the reservist which took away some time..

The tiring week started on 12 Dec.. Had a friend's wedding (on a Monday night).. Followed by nights trying to find gifts.. Had the chance to meet my interns.. Still as stressed looking when I last saw them.. Thankfully the movie was at 10pm on Friday and I could make it on time.. Next day (or night) chilled at the Pump room and guess what.. The couple who played at the Great World branch was at Clarke Quay that night.. Chris and Danielle?? They make a really good duet with her voice and his guitar.. It's those performances that make you want to pick up that guitar again..

Following week was just as bad.. 2 dinners plus even more last minute rush for gifts.. So much for exercising.. This time ended up at Wala Wala.. Again.. Didn't catch the band's name but I like the bassist.. Has a lot of nice progressions.. Then the next day had to get up at 9.. Best part was that I only got to her place at 11am.. The reason.. Shall not say.. And that was the first time I'd attempted to make a cheesecake.. And based on reviews it went quite well.. Cannot blame me that those guys though it was from me alone leh.. No greeting notes to write our names down.. Plus I could not stick all in time.. But thanks to the experienced person that it turned out well.. As for those who did not get the present.. We should be making another one soon.. Don't miss it ya.. The next best thing was that I got a pair of street soccer shoes on Christmas day.. Nice gift ya.. Along with the wallet.. Thanks..

And the following week was suppose to be slack.. Only had rest on Tuesday and Friday from 8 to 10pm.. Else was out again to settle stuff or dinner.. The AGM was good and a suggestion would be a quarterly meeting instead.. Went to visit my grandma after that.. Shag and fell asleep wherever I went.. So much for not sleeping.. Other than that it was a good end to the year..

Busy end to the year.. Both for work and personal life.. 12 months ago I wouldn't guess I'll be where I am now.. Not that I'm surprised but the question comes whether I want to do this for the rest of my life.. I'll let you know again in 12 months time.. Until then enjoy life and hopefully a new list of resolutions come soon.. No more long breaks from now onwards.. Really draining..

All the best in the new year then.. Cheers!!
