Simple Life

Life journey of an introvert


Goodbye 2005, welcome 2006

Gosh... I've forgoten what I want to write. My mind is blank now.

Anyway, I want to thank God for walking me through the entire year of 2005. It is a year where I started a new journey in my life cycle. For the coming 2006, I don't have any particular new year resolution or dreams. I know the Author of life continues writing my life story, and I'm excited and anticipating to see how my life goes for this new year.

Another 3 more hours and it's time to bid farewell to 2005 and 2006!

Happy new year!!

Christmas Eve Dinner

Went back to work on Thursday after a week long leave. I knew I have to work on Christmas and New Year Day, and the fact that many of my colleagues are planning to take a short break during this festive season making it tougher for me to apply leave on both days. While I'm thinking of wearing a red Santa Claus hat in the office on Christmas day, suddenly my colleague came to my desk...

Colleague : Hey welcome back. Do you know that we will be off on Christmas and New Year day due to the operation will be closed on both days?

Me : Huh?? Really??? Yeah!!!!

Colleague : Yeah man. So, what's your plan for both days?

Me : Hhmm......

If I knew it earlier, I might be taking another day off after Chrismas so that I can go back to JB to help up, as my parents will be organising the annual Christmas luncheon at home on the 25th. Seems like I'm not able to make it. Nevertheless, my cousin invited me to their place for a "western" style dinner on Christmas Eve. I'm assigned to cook some pasta while my cousin has ordered a roast turkey as one of the main course dishes. Yummy!!

Dinner was good, and so was the gathering and the fellowship of the "cousins". Dishes include pasta, roast turkey, seafood salad, baked cod fish and fruits salad, with a couple shots of Japanese's "Choya", Vodka and Baileys (I must mention that I'm not drunk after a few shots :-) ). We all had a good time on a cooling and breezing Christmas Eve day. Check out some of the pictures below.

Have a blessed Christmas everybody.

Stucked in a traffic jam while going to Megamall

Just arrived in Singapore today after a long week in Malaysia. Was in KL for 3 days, mainly because of attending my ex CG leader's wedding which was held on Sunday at the Saujana Golf & Country club resort. The holy matrimony a.k.a wedding ceremony was held at the beautiuful poolside followed by the dinner inside the ballroom. Twas a good time catching up with my DUMC mates, pastors and cg buddies. Once again I would like to congratulate Victor & Lai Fong, wishing both of you the best in everything.

Besides the wedding, managed to catch up with some of my close college-mates. Good to see that all of them have graduated and started working. Besides the usual and horrible traffic jam on weekends, I enjoyed my time over there. It's good to be back to where I've spent 2.5 years doing my tertiary studies. I also visited my buddy who had just shifted to Seremban recently. A small and quiet town, it would be a perfect place for retirees who plan to live a quiet and relaxing life. It is also a place where the locals sleep early at night and wake up late the next day. What a life!

Anyhow, tomorrow is back to work again. Hopefully I can make another trip to the north again soon. Just came across this song while i'm blogging. Got to know this song when I was a small boy, kept singing this song again and again because of the short lyrics, until the past few years only reliased this is just the 'chorus' part. Nevertheless, it is a song which reminds me of Him that I'm able to keep this 'journey' moving.

In Christ alone, I place my trust
And find my glory in the power of the cross
In every victory, let it be said on me
My source of strength, my source of hope is Christ alone.

Back Again

It's good to be back in JB again, nice and relaxing. And of course not forgeting to come back to the blogger world.

Unexpectedly, I just got promoted recently and started my new role this week. It's not really a new role, but rather the same role with more assignments and tasks to be carried out. It's gonna be more work, higher responsibilities, and "harder" to fall. It's a new challenge, and frankly speaking I'm not too sure I can overcome it or not. But nevertheless, I just need to accomplish my task and full stop. For those who have been following up my blog, I should be achieving 3000 calls by this week. Another small and happy moment which I will cherish it.

Festive seasons are drawing near, and I will be in KL during my one week leave in mid December to spend some time with my fellow friends there. Will be also attending my ex CG leader's wedding on Dec 18th. My most sincere wishes to Victor and Lai Fong, Congratulations!! And to all my fellow mates, happy holidays and enjoy the rest of the days in 2005 before we welcome year 2006.

His newly revamped blog just launched. I like the layout and everything has been nicely done. Good job Wai Nyan, keep it up!

I hope I could blog more frequently. I guess I should be putting that as my new year resolution...
