Good-bye 2007, welcome 2008! A fresh new start! =)

2007 did not start off wif a gd first half for me….yr 1 sem 2 was my worst semester, pulling down my gpa quite badly…internship at KPMG was one big big disaster, receiving terribly lousy appraisals of which all point to far far under performance which was a big shock & big wake-up call to me….

Fortunately 2007 did end on a much better note….yr 2 sem 1 was not an easy sem, with overload to 27aus, but thankfully it was also my best semester…

My 2007 resolutions were to:

1. Study hard consistently, avoid last minute work & aim for BnF 2nd spec…..This I feel I have not really achieved, haf not managed to kick off my bad habit, yr 2 sem1 was full of last minute work & getting BnF 2nd spec was more due to my A level results rather than my gpa.

2. Train hard for db….which I feel still needs much more determination, after 1.5 yrs in db, I still can’t row with the proper technique…

3. Practice seriously for golf & get my PC by Jul & handicap by Dec….this is not at all achieved, for I have stopped my sun afternoon golf lessons since the start of 2007 & I do not recall playing any golf during the whole of 2007…its quite a waste coz come jul 2008, I will never get to use the club under my dad’s membership anymore…

4. Run StanChart Half Marathon non-stop within 2.5hrs…it was quite a lot of long distance running for the 2nd half of 2007…mizuno run wif my bro though onli 10km was ultimate cui…but managed army half marathon in abt 2hr 27mins…& almost 6hrs for StandChart Full Marathon…thks to db teammates, would not haf survived these runs without them…

5. Blog everyday….I shall need to blog more often…I feel blogging helps reflect on wad u haf done for the day, which helps curb wasting time & procastination….

The chapter for 2007 has closed…And a new chapter has just began for 2008…

For 2008, here goes my new year resolutions (in order of importance)

1. Study hard consistently, do tutorials on time, pay attention in class, no more last minute work…Take more interest in studies, find back that drive & motivation to strive for first class honours (which seems still so far far away)….& Aim for internship at E & Y as well as Aim for GIP China in year 3 Sem 1.

2. Train hard for Dragonboat…watch that punching arm, keep it straight….excute full stroke, twist body at the end, to keep punching arm straight….watch that recovery, use top arm and not pulling arm….& Aim for 1 medal…I tink I’m the onli one in my batch who hasn’t rowed in a finals that haf won a medal b4….If I can get GIP China, this will be my last sem in DB, make it a good one.

3. Blog everyday….live everyday to the fullest!

Wishing everyone a Happy New Year! Happy 2008! =) Let 2008 be an even better yr!
