What's Next?

No fireworks.

No countdown parties.

I left the clique early & Ken drove me home so I can spend the last few hours of 2009 at home.

Boring huh?

Can someone remind me the purpose of counting numbers backwards with random people and wishing everyone 'Happy New Year' when the clock strike 12 on 01/01?

The whole commercialized idea is not working for me anymore... maybe that's just signs of aging...

Review of 2009
~ Quit my first job at Deloitte after 2 years and 4 months with the firm.
~ Start my new job for 2 months with Swarovski
~ Went Taiwan (Taipei & Hua Lien) & Australia (Melbourne & Tasmania)

~ Allowed my heart to rule my mind

~ Completed sign language course

~ Another good year mentoring
~ Obtained driving license
~ Picked up baking/ dress-making
~ Attempted yoga/ tennis/ kick-boxing

I decided to come up with a list of comprehensive objectives to motivate myself for the year coming. As my HR says, objectives gotta be SMART - Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time Bound. And mine were set with them in mind.
