Post 2009

2009 came and went so fast.
Was in Hakuba for the new year, didnt join any countdowns as body was too aching after a whole day of snowboarding lessons.

What did i achieve in 2009?

April 2009 - Vietnam
June 2009 - Vegas
August 2009 - Hongkong
October 2009 - Macau
December 2009 - Japan

Amazing. Lots of travel, depletion of savings. Is this what i want in life? or i just need an avenue to escape work?

Its just the start of the year and i am already counting down to my 2 years mark in this position. Money is ok but not very good. Lotsa leave ( but that is cos i have to work half day on saturday). The cons of having to work half day on saturdays is that i am rest deprived. It does not help either when i use all my off days on travelling. Therefore, i am effectively working 5.5days week and went travelling using these off days in lieu every other month.

Since my hatred for this position is quite apparent, i need to work out something to motivate myself to live each day. This is what i have planned out for myself for 2010:

Jan 7- Back from Japan
Feb 14- CNY
Mar - Bkk trip
Apr- good friday ( not that i am a christian, just that the thought of having a public holiday makes me happier)
May- Labour Day and Vesak Day
June- My BIRTHDAY
July- 2 years in OCBC! Hopefully i can get an internal transfer, or a new job before this. I have given myself 2 years in sales and the deadline is reaching
August - National Day and Mr G's birthday
September- Hari Raya Puasa
October - NOTHING
November- Deepavali and Hari Raya Haji
December- Christmas

At least this will keep me slightly happy for now.

PS: thanks Mr G for making 2009 so wonderful for me. 2 yrs together and more to come.
