Happy 2009!

IthinkImaynotbeabletogohomeasscheduledthisfriday.

Due to some unforeseen circumstances.

I'm missing home so much. I hardly had chance to catch my breath after my Turkey winter wonderland and then I had to jet off to HCMC. Initially I was quite happy that it's only a 2 week assignment but now horror, it's gonna extend over 2 weeks and there goes my weekend. I thought I could finally sleep in or do some catching up with friends before the CNY. And then it's less than one month in SG before I jet off to Shanghai for a WHOLE month. Gulps.

There you have it, I'm hardly at home and I do wish for some local assignments so that SG would stop feeling so much like a resort and more like home.

I'll just pen a few lines on my 2008 since there's no time nor mood for a long reflection.

First half of the year was spent in Company A where I had my third and last financial peak as an extern@l @uditor. Haha and this is about the only thing that I don't miss. Other than that I had my good moments in the company and got to know some really nice people. But then again, my hectic flying around don't give me much chance to catch up with the handful of them. :(

The pace in Company B is slightly slower and I mean only slightly cos the stress level is still high and the amount of work just as crushing. But I get fewer emails than I was in Company A and that was the first real difference I noted. Hahaha.

Other notable random things from 08:

I travelled to 6 countries in the second half of the year. In chronological order: Hong Kong, Shenzhen, New Zealand, Taiwan, Thailand and Turkey. Out of which, Taiwan (Taipei) and Turkey were my own vacations.

I added my jc crush, last mentioned in here, more than six months ago on facebook. And he didn't acknowledge the friend request and I totally regretted it as I felt silly and wished there was an option to un-do the whole add as friend thingy. And than my jaw dropped when he actually accepted the friend's request on December 23rd. That was one 见鬼 incident on facebook. Lol. Haha good, now I can kpo on my past crushes on facebook.

Okay that's about it for 08. In summary, it was quite a shitty year but we can leave out the shit since elaborations are in previous entries ;).

Let's hope 09 be a better year despite the stinky economy.
