2007 In Review

-

In about 1.5 days time, we would be welcoming 2008. But before that, I just want to recap what has gone on in my life in the past year.

The Good & Happy

  1. Patching up of differences with Darling. Glad to have patched up our differences in the early part of the year. I could feel that our friendship is getting stronger with the patch up. Thanks for giving me the advice when I needed them.
  2. Darling's Wedding & Caifeng's Wedding. Glad to be part of the celebrations. Glad to see that my friends are getting hitched! Wonder when will it be my turn? I am not feeling the urge but my mum is.
  3. Knowing more nice friends like Curryegg, Peggy, Tammy & Elaine. Hopefully our friendship will stay strong.
  4. First time giving flowers to a lady ( Someone whom I have not met yet, but hopefully can do so tomorrow) and she was thankful for it. She said I am a sweet guy. What will this lead to? I am not sure.
  5. Ending my friendship with AF, my poly mate aka the nosey parker.
  6. Seeing my sisters, Wendy & Elaine getting on well with their BGRs. Must say that Chris & Ter are good catches.
  7. My smashing birthday party 2 weeks ago. Thanks for your pressence for those who were here. Even for those that were not here, thanks for the thoughts, blog posts, gifts & smses.
  8. Getting my ACCA Level 2 qualification. Making me more possible to achieve my goal by 30.

The Bad & The Sad

  1. The passing of my NS pal, Jason. Though his suffering has ended, he will be missed by me for the good times, happy times , sad times we shared throughout the 8 years of our friendship.
  2. The passing of my Sec sch pal's mum, Aunt Aihua. Thanks for always encouraging me whenever I was at your place for CNY visiting. Sad to say that the last time I saw you was at the bus stop in Oct 2006. Was not able to say my final goodbye to you.
  3. The lying blogger friend, I am still wondering why she lied to us and took it as a Christmas joke.
  4. My work. I wonder when the flip flops by my lady boss going to end?
  5. Mum naggings to settle down. How to settle when ACCA not completed and no gal to take my breath away or should say feel that can take care of me & my family?
  6. One gal that I chased, didn't even thank me for the V-Day gift that I sent, and kept avoiding subsequent meetups after that. Just wonder why? Have decided to move on as I feel I certainly can look for a better one.

Finally, wishing all my friends a Happy New Year and hope your resolutions come true. May work or study be smooth sailing.

Pantang- Meaning Things Not To Do In Hokkien

There are certain things which some Chinese are pretty particular with:- Happy and sad events can't clash together within 100 days to a year. If a relative or loved one were to pass away, the immediate family member can't attend a happy event, like wedding & housewarming. The Teochews treat their eldest male grandchild as their youngest son. If you are getting married & your friend who is getting married invites you to his wedding, u are not allowed to attend. The old people say happy events clash. The red packet can't be given twice for a happy event. Likewise for the condolence packet. One should not give shoes or lamp to a birthday boy or gal, as it is believed that you may bring the person to his deathbed. These are some interesting stuff to share, especially to some blog readers who are not living in a place filled with Chinese.

I guess Darling, SR & Rich want to watch "Memiors of A Geisha", especially after the ladies were so engrossed in the book at MPH during our last meeting. It can be afternoon or nite show, but afternoon is preferred as I would like to avoid the crowd shopping for CNY goodies & clothes. I would like to call the following people. Darling Richard Rebecca Krys (Darling, please help me ask her, scared she not reading this!) Darling's sis ( Darling, u can ask your sis along) My cousin, Jolene ( wonder if she is busy with her new house interior design) Dates & Time Slots For Choices 19 Jan 2006 (Thu) nite 20 Jan 2006 (Fri) nite 22 Jan 2006 (Sun) afternoon & nite 23 Jan 2006 (Mon) nite 25 Jan 2006 (Wed) nite 26 Jan 2006(Thu) nite 27 Jan 2006 (Fri) nite We can have our dinner/lun...

House Visiting & AVietnamese Girlfriend For Me??

I started my day early today at 8.30am. I was helping my mum with the flower decoration & slept at 1am last night. Had received CNY sms messages from my ex colleague, LS, Angela, Rebecca, Darling, Caifeng, Huixuan, Huiyu, Mac, Jaslyn, Joey, Candy , Kelvin, Rich & Mike. Thanks for all your well wishes, my friends. The 1st stop was at my grandma's place, which we were lucky to get a cab almost immediately after waiting for just a short while. In the ride, my mum & I were chatting casually about some issues that happened in S'pore recently, when we actually touched on the old cobbler cheating Vietnamese gals to be his bride. The cabby told us an incident that happened to his friend. His friend, a guy aged 39 had married a Thai gal aged 23 some years ago. Soon after, they became parents to a baby boy. When the boy turned 3, the gal took away the money in the joint bank account with her husband. The savings totalled to about $100,000, which the guy had saved for years fr...
