Resolutions 2011

1. Be punctual (or at least, no more than 15 min late once a week)

2. Get open water certification in March ‘11 - certified!

3. Get motorbike licence by June ‘11

4. Climb Mt Kinabalu in June '11 - postponed indefinitely

5. Try more new experiences - sea sports? jet-skiing? - Sea sports in Batam :)

6. Travel more – March, June, Sep-Oct?

7. Exercise the brain - read newspaper daily, 4 books a month, write more and reflect more.

The brain is there for a reason so work smart and fast. Read the papers before/after work etc or watch CNA.

8. Exercise 4x weekly or die on Mt Kinabalu - need to buck up on this!

Practice tennis once a week and master enough to play a game (i.e. return at least 3 serves within the court).

Swim at least twice a week and jog once a week (gym with G).

Do not skip Muay Thai! Improve my roundhouse kick and reaction times in MT – don’t be so retarded!

9. Relax, enjoy life and be happy!
Learn to go with the flow and not over-plan or get upset when things don’t go according to plan. Remember Su’s words: Some things in life are out of control. You can either make it a party or tragedy.

10. Learn to love myself more, and others. Love my friends and family loads loads cos they truly deserve more.

11. Shop wisely - no more greys and blacks in my closet, esp sleeveless blacks and baggy greys. Get one or two more flats or a twisted ankle soon. Don't buy recklessly (i.e. not sure whether i like, or normal but overpriced goods). But BUY if you really like it!

12. Out with the old, in with the new! (this applies to clothes in particular... sigh) SPRING-CLEAN regularly

13. Widen my social circle but don't forget to meet up with old friends :) - must work less!!!
