Holiday - LA and Vancouver

Was back since last Friday but too tired and lazy to blog... plus suffering from jet lag, so did not do any blogging... Today got a MC due to sore and itchy throat, so got time to blog a bit ha...
Anyway me dun like to write and dear is describing the trip in his blog liao, so i shall just supply the photos in mine ha... Happy Viewing :)

Something to add.... Really appreciates Michelle (Dear's fren) supplying us with room to stay and some food during our stay in LA. I really "pei fu" her also, a really very independent girl. One girl staying alone in LA. She has let me re-think about my life also... Anyway thanks a lot, Michelle!

5th Blood Donation

Went for blood donaton last sunday... this time used left hand to donate... However the nurse is pro loh, her action was fast, no pain (not like last time), so no blue-black... She told me that my veins are very deep, deeper for my right hand than my left hand, so use left hand will be easier... think nurse will be more stress when they met me this type of donar cos vein more difficult to find ha...

Anyway on the other hand, will be leaving for my USA and Canada trip with dear tomorrow. Dear was quite upset these few days about 2 issues, so cannot feel his excitement. Poor dear. Guess he is really very "fan", hope that this trip can help him relax and avoid all the "fan" things for a while... Then everything will be ok le when we are back 2 weeks later...

11 more hours to go... USA and Canada, here we come! :)

Review and 2008 Resolutions

Ha... Its 1st day of 2008! A time to do review of 2007 and start my 2008 resolutions...

Lets do a review first (ps: was reading my last year blog while blogging this, ha gt blog is so good):
1) Exercise every weekend -> checked
Did follow this closely and participated in the Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon 2007 on 2nd Dec 2007. It was a fun event to participate and shall continue this for next few years.

2) Find a greener pasture -> half checked
Did apply for position as teacher, send an online application but MOE rejected me... so in the end I did not hop anywhere and stayed with my current company for another one year.

3) Traveling with family and dear -> three quarter checked
Traveled with dear to Bali in March, it was a nice trip. As for the family one, I am not able to travel due to $$$. However I sponsored Mum and Dad to BKK on their tour package. Although my bro and I did not go with them but I can feel that they are happy after they came back. At least the money spent its worth it. I guess children just have to create some "er ren shi jie" for parents when its needed ha.

Ok, that all for my review. Though its not fully checked but i still do something on them, so I guess its not so bad bah :p

Next, it shall be may 2008 resolutions:
1) Continue to participate in marathons.
Just surf the net to see what are the marathons held in 2007 hee. I shall participate in 2 marathons this year, 2008. One is the Safra Bay Run. I have not participate in this before, this shall be something new this year. Next one is the Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon again, it should be Women's 10km race. Hope can improve on the timing. In 2007, I took about 80mins, must run faster this year.

2) Complete all the tasks at work, meaning to be more organised, focus and determined.
There are still a lot work being carried forward to this year. I think its due to too many work piling plus me not very organised. Therefore I shall be more organised and focus to complete each individual job. Jia You :)

3) Upgrade skills and knowledge
Aiming to take up some useful course or read more books this year. For courses, maybe near to end of the year bah. I have not really decide what course to take but may be something related to IT or Logistic. Shall read more books and see which one I am more interested in.

4) Be more supportive and responsive about dear's stuff
Ha... dear has voiced out that I am stubborn and unresponsive at times when he needed more response from me... I did not object to what he say... cos its true... I know I tends to switch off once he repeated something that he has said before or I am too tired after work le. So sorry, dear. Shall work on it this year ha. Hope to see improvements this year :)

Thats shall be all... As for travelling, no resolutions is set. Its because dear and me will be going USA and Canada in 8 days time ha... Its winter lor.... Guess it will be an unusual experience for me :) For family trip, this shall depend on my financial capability ha, so not going to set as a resolution.

k lar, hope everyone will have a happy and fruitful 2008 :)
