I realised I have been super duper lazy this year. I am averaging 1 post a month since the start of 2011. :P Ok ok... some updates..
India
I made a trip to New Delhi in March for a tradeshow. I was basically there to be a vase. If I am deemed pretty enough for that. :P
The tradeshow was quite good even though there are less people that what we had in a similar tradeshow in China last year. There was more quality customers compared to quantity that we had then.
I managed to visit Taj Mahal with 2 of my colleagues. It is a magnificent building. I may go back again if I have the chance if not for the long long drive up. :S
Work
There was some unhappiness at work. I just have to keep telling myself that I did all I can. There is nothing much else that I can do. People can think what they want of me but I maintain that I am not wrong. However, no matter what I feel, I do feel wronged... :(
House
I just managed to get my flat! After many many many tries of balloting for the BTO, we finally managed to get a flat. Even though we did not get the ones that we wanted, we are still glad that we are finally going to be able to get a place of our own. :) Now we have to start saving for all the renovation and etc... Sigh... I hope all these will work out well...
I can't think of anything else. Will update again soon... :)

The bigger your expectations, the greater your disappointment. After so many times, I had learnt to live without any expectations. Anything can changed so nothing is for sure until the thing happened. If it happens like how it is supposed to, good. If not, since I have no expectations, I no longer feel disappointed. Life goes on... Move on...

Grr... I never seem to learn my lesson. Stupid Opera on iPhone is simply not trustable when trying to post a post on blogspot! I had to rewrite this post again! :(
Plans for 2011
Muay Aerobox...
Suddenly after the hectic 2009 & 2010, I am left with more time on my hand to know what to do with. I took up Muay Aerobox with an Adv. Diploma classmate of mine. It was quite siong actually so it is lucky that I have someone I know to go through it with me. :P
India...
I am scheduled to go to New Delhi for a tradeshow sometime in March. I suggested to them maybe they will like to let the new girl go instead since I had been to 2 tradeshows before. However, my dotted line boss thinks that he will prefer me to attend it as the other girl is still new. If I going to New Delhi, I will definitely make a trip to go Taj Mahal since it is supposed to be quite near. I had heard stories of how magnificent the building is so since I'm already there, I might as well go. Bf may accompany me, if not maybe sis will go or worse come to worse, I go myself! :P
Japanese...
I started my Jap classes last Sunday. Very hard to catch up even when I am still at my first lesson!!! Everyone else in the class seems to know some Japanese before we start, so it makes it even more scary for me. :(
Meet ups...
The rest of my time now is mainly spent on meeting up with old friends. Not many, just a few whom I am close to. :) It is good to be able to talk to them like we did not lose touch for so long.
Red Bombs...
2011 is a year of marriage. I have received like 4 invitations even before 2010 ended. I know one of my cousin is planning to get married this yr too so that will make it 5. I suspect there will be more to come...
o~! Happy Chinese New Year! May the rabbit year brings good health and wealth for all of us! :)

Wrapping Up 2010...
2010 is finally coming to an end soon... Time for me to look back and give 2010 a wrap up. 2010 has left me with many thoughts and I really hope that 2011 will be an even better year ahead...
Work...
Work has been hectic for the whole of this year. I hardly have a chance to really breathe at work throughout the year. The moment I have slightly little more time for myself to take a breather, work starts to pour in again. :( It is probably quite lucky that we managed to hire someone to help me out. She is not perfect, but she is young and I believe, can be guide and coach to be a better help.
I have probably learnt more things at work in 2010 than I ever had to or get the chance to be exposed to if I stay on in this job if my bosses did not leave. I had learnt to fend for myself, defend my position, argue with people about what works and what don't, see how ridiculous some people can be, work my way around to get things done and see the true colors in some people. It was also great that I managed to get more exposure at work by meeting customers and etc. It was a whole new experience that if my bosses did not leave, I probably won't get exposed to so soon. In a way, the leaving of my bosses are both a plus and minus for me. It sort of accelerated my progress and I have to learn to survive.
I guess I can say that I am a survivor at work now...
Study...
I have finally finished my Uni studies after 2 years. It was definitely not easy for me to juggle both my work, travel and studies at the same time especially when I had been much busier at work this year compared to previous years. My results showed how bad it was for me. :P It was a relief to me when I received my results as I thought I will need to "da bao" one of the modules. Phew~
I am still contemplating about the job switch thingy. I have started looking out for jobs but not actively. I may or may not want to switch... Let's see how it goes...
O... crazy me went and signed up for a language course to learn Japanese. It should start in Jan 2011. :P I guess since I suddenly have so much time on hand, I can use it to learn something too. :D
Grow Up...
I hate to say this but I had to tell myself that it is time for me to grow up and not to just trust what people have to say. There are many times when I put trust in my friends, to find that it is all a lie after all. I have to learn that they may no longer be the person whom I used to know. Everyone grows up. It's time for me to grow up and not to put my trust in everyone. I guess this is why some people always say "The only person you can trust is yourself."

Random Updates
I have been feeling too lazy recently to blog nowadays. :P Anyway just some random quick updates...
Exams...
I finished my exams sometime in first week of November. This time round the exams sucks totally. I only have confidence of clearing 1 paper. As for the other 2 papers, there is a high chance that I may have to repeat the module. Sigh... Let's wait until 02 Dec before I know my fate... If I managed to pass all my modules this semester, this means I will graduate liao. If not... when I will graduate will depend on when is those modules being offered... I hope I can pass...
Vietnam...
I went to Hanoi to attend a friend's wedding and came back to Singapore on Tues. It was the first time that I went to Vietnam. Hanoi is a very different place as compared to Singapore. Sort of like China 2 years ago with many many motorcycles on the road. I kind of enjoy my trip to Sapa even though that place is too cold for me... The trip to Sapa was very tiring due to the trekking but I think it was worth it as it allowed me to see things that I would otherwise not get to see. The only unfortunate thing is that I got sick during my trip there. It sucks to fall sick during vacation but I'm just glad that I have more or less recovered.
Ok time to go to bed... I will post some photos if I remember. :P Till next time... :)

Happy 28th
Time come and go so quickly that without actually realising it, I turned 28th today.
It is a pity that I have achieved much in life yet. There's too many things but too little time for me to do all the things that I want.
Hopefully, I will be able to take a break one day, have a look around me and know what I want in life. After all, we only lived once.
Happy 28th to me! I hope life will be even better for me for the rest of the years...
