Farewell 2008.... Hello 2009
I ushered in the new year by spending a quiet evening with close friends. Dinner at Ikoi, Miramar Hotel. Followed by ring shopping with a close friend (12 years...) and her bf ... they were looking for an engagement ring. We did find the perfect one. Towards midnight, we ended up at Vivo City and basically drank Bacardi Breezers as we welcome 2009. No fireworks. No 10 seconds countdown. We didn't know it was already the new year till we heard the resounding booms of the fireworks being let off at Sentosa.

It has definitely been a year to remember... looking back there are things i wished i had done differently but at the same time i am glad i experienced all the emotions and thoughts that came along throughout the year. You learn from mistakes and walk on with the knowledge on how you can improve and change to make yourself a better person. The highlights?
1. Spending time with my husband during his stay here in Singapore.
2. My kids from Mars and Jupiter class of 2009. They will forever hold a special place in my heart.
3. Pulling off a drama and dance performance with my fellow teachers for the year end graduation concert.
I'll be turning 30 this coming March and somehow it has presented me with a new sense of urgency and direction in life and life doesn't always match up to how we planned and like it to be. I am hoping that the year ahead will not have too many bumps ... but create enough highlights to make it memorable and (hopefully) fulfilling one. I know i will have quite the adventure with my move in March 2009 to Canada to start a new chapter in my life with my husband.
Here is wishing everyone good health and best wishes in all your future endeavours
