Summ 2006

Time flies really and we are now near to the end of 2006. Time to summarize the whole entire year and set new resolutions for the new year of 2007!! (In order to do this summary, I have to read back all my blogs in the past one year… then I realize one thing… how come I got so many blogs!!) *aiyoz*

Ok here we go….

I started year 2006 with dar at Chevrons - Litque & Peiling's chalet together with JX, Mag, Jinlong, Ah Xiong, Wenlin, Alex etc etc… the night is filled with drinks & tons of laughter…

I quitted my job at Informatics..my last day was a emotional one... with a farewell gathering among some of my nice colleagues Ms Teo, Sharifah, Shiwei, Lay Yong, Thomas, Tim, Julian.... Dar came and fetched me off work becoz I had too much barang barang to carry home... after being free and jobless for a while, Dar and me both got ourselves a new job.. He started his new job at Changi Airfreight Centre around Feb... his first job after handing his retail business to his parents.... and me.. I started off my new job at a online media company Bunkerworld around March... and we are still doing well in our job till now... everything seems to be going smoothly and well under control...

Dar dar got his first bike, an X9 scooter at the beginning of the year mainly for transportation purposes... I was so scared and most unwillingly to ride on it at first.. but dar managed to help me overcome my fear and everything become so natural after... we went into JB to pump petrol a couple of times as well as to get our hands on some very cheap and good food in JB such as the begger chicken at Gelang Patah...around May we even drove the X9 all the way to Malacca... the first trip which also happen to be the furthest and the last trip ever made on a bike... we stayed at Shah Beach Resort and had a very nice, sweet and romantic short holiday away from home together with Zhaowei and Lily who went with us too.. however they went in a car and stayed separately at Rivera Bay.. the lousy bike took us all the way to and from Malacca... even though we had major problems with it during the trip.. at least it still manage to send us back to SIngapore safely before it died on us... then dar got himself a new bike.. a Yamaha XXX... he is damn proud of it at first.. as it looked superb cool with the two side panniers / boxes by the side... everything was going well until July.. when darling met up with an accident... his first accident in the many many years of riding... I freaked out.. luckily it was a minor one and he wasnt that hurt other than a fractured leg... thanks god.... dar went on a 1 mth plus MC... we wasted some money... but I still think it is a blessing in disguise.... I think our relationship went a step further during this entire incident as it seems to bring us closer together... but I guess ever since that accident.. i think we both had a little bit of phobia when it comes to riding.. so after many months.. we decided to sell the bike and finally we sold it this month... yippess!!!

My fifth auntie and her entire family drove out during Chinese New Year from Batu Pahat for a holiday... we brought them to the Science Centre specially for the 3 kids.. and me intelligently took on the co-driver position but being the road idiot, I got lost in Singapore…despite the numerous times dar reminded me on the correct route to take.. ahhaa… how can this ever happen to me…haha so after my first day blunder, my dar took the co-driver for the second day and led the way to Sentosa… it is also the first time my darling officially made an appearance in front of my family and my relatives... he was worried about it.. but I guess it all went well in the end... Then during the beginning of November, me and dar went up to Genting Highlands… first bus trip and we really enjoyed ourselves… hehe.. dar love the weather and I love being with him… hehehe… we took the cable car, we took the theme park rides, we gambled and win lots of money (but lost almost all when we are leaving.. sad case)… anyway it was fun… then almost one or two weeks after that, we went to Batam for my birthday… hahaha.. first time visiting Batam and we two spent some nice neat time together… going on a trip with dar is always fun to look forwards to…

However I got "seperated" from my dar a couple of times this year too... first during Chinese New Year when I got to make my way back to Batu Pahat for a reunion dinner... nowadays we tried to make our way back to BP as much as possible now ever since Grandpa got diagnosed with the final stage of cancer.. but he is a strong one... he has experienced World War 2, he has been to the toughest of the toughest experiences as a sailor... he will survive in there I am sure... second time when i got to attend my cousin's wedding in Batu Pahat too.. a grand affair I would say for simple Malaysians like us... but who cares.. she & her hubby got tons of money to spend as she is marrying a Korean American and moving to the US.. you get shitloads of money just by exchanging currency rates between US dollars and Malaysian RM.. what else more can you hao lian about ...third time when I went up on a road trip to KL, Cameroon Highlands and Selangor together with my parents, my fifth auntie and her entire family... visited a couple of places like the Kuantan Fireflies Park etc.... then there was one time when darling got to go back to Batam to attend his cousin's wedding….. as much as we tried to do everything together, sometimes it just didn’t work out perfectly… I am sure things will change when we get married and priorities change…

I got a lot of happy news this year….we attended Wenliang's new born baby boy’s first month aniversary celebration .... the post-ROM celebration of Huiqi and Yingyao at their chalet in Pasir Ris, dar attended Yongsheng & Lynn's wedding at Orchid Country Club and Quiwen's wedding at Sheraton Towers.. and I attended Aisha's wedding together with some of my poly mates and I got Koh & Diana wedding coming up in Pontian end of the year which I dun think I will be attending... Eying and Blacks are also getting married end of the year...together with Chermaine & her hubby (whose name I didn’t manage to catch)…Rob got married and gave birth to a new baby boy around May in Australia... I didnt get the chance to give her my best wishes... and I didnt get the chance to hug the new baby.. so sad.... hehehe.. but she is doing well... good for her..
hmmm so now everyone is asking when it will be my turn.. hahaha... I go back to Batu Pahat every relative asked me the same question.. I go out with dar’s relatives kana shoot the same question also.... do i have the words "I WANT / NEED TO GET MARRIED" written all over my forehead??

I took my basic theory test in August and I passed!! So happy with my results... especially after failing it 5 times in Aussie.. hahaha... on my way to my Advanced Theory .. I actually booked my Advanced Theory in Sept but I chickened out last min becoz i didnt have enough time for preparations and i just wasnt that confident enough to pass it.. so I postponed it till today and I flunked it again… damnzit!!!! Why is the bloody thing so tricky and difficult… haiz.. never mind… dar said try again.. at least now I know which parts to concentrate on… coming 16th Jan 2007, I will once again enter into the examination hall and take the final theory test… wish me luck guys…

I got a couple of new hairstyles this year.. for people who have been reading my blog for a long time.. you would have seen pictures of my new hairstyle.. for people who have no idea about how I look.. please kindly refer back to my archives and search through it month by month.. hahaha... but anyway I did some new hairstyles this year and i looked good man!! Hahaha not that i am praising myself for being pretty (which in fact I am not) but i think the new hairstyles are a good change for me...

Ok I think I have basically done it all… hahaha… I seriously cant remember much anyway… sooo many things to summarize
