At the crossing line of yet another year. I'll choose to think another crease on the skin is another topic wiser.
Divisional sports event on the day when tomorrow is next month and next year. Trekking up bt timah. Walked past a family. A kid exclaimed "whoa how high is the mountain ?" Didnt catch what the adult responded but yea an immediate reflex would be hey kid, it isnt a mountain. Everyone jus went thru the basic stages. They will come to realise it. Exactly the reason why parents always tell the kids u'll get to know when u grow up. And kids will sulk and pout. When will i be considered grown up? The cycle jus repeats. Doesnt make sense right. U tell me now, i'll be grown up lo. Which grown-ups raise their hands and exclaim ask me ask me anyway?
Fortunately, no rain in the morning. Also luckily for the 4 of us to take the more-unbeaten path. Up and down steps and muddy slopes. Chked the maps twice jus to ensure we are on the right track. Esp everytime we are gg down. We know the general direction but clearly the route isnt giving us enuff confidence. The jungle trail is definitely more fun, more like trekking. Only bad thing is we cant look ard while walking. U really have to watch where u r going. Soaking up another round of phytoncide. Found the grilled gate which looks somewhat like a half done track. Reminds of the "fungeon - a fun dungeon, from wreck-it-ralph" really lame and duhz, but left an impression man. The last stretch is a super steep 200m flight of steps. Imba. Totally drenched in sweat. Great work out tho. Im glad i wasnt wearing my usual fav flipflops. But really sorry for making the rest waiting at the summit. Ask them to hurry up, still ask why must hurry? Chked the watch, really look early, but well pple waiting leh...
Sadly afternoon has to rain. And there goes the last afternoon of 2012. At night, with great company did the new year count down. Fireworks as usual give the wow moment lighting up the dark sky.
Got to catch the unexpected journey on new year's day. Show is quite nice la, not like frens say boring. Fav line: u need tact, respect and charm. So let me do the talking. How true. That's whom i would like to converse with as well. Good weather, unlike the previous day.
And so finally first day at work. Put back the battery. Get back on track n the rhythm gg. Got to keep up again. The more sluggish mode in the supposed to be holidaying and hibernating month has caused a slight backlog. Cleared 80% today. Glad. Setting the new year resolution: being more organised (including my desk). Note the relative verb , yes in comparison to last year.
And then producing quality outcome in the shortest time possible.
Next time when pple ask u wat do u want to do in the next 5 years and if u are stumped on the answer, try asking urself what would u do if u have 5 remaining years. U will find urself being able to answer it more easily. And that's when u need the speed to cover the things that are on ur list. If ur list is empty...good, u're accomplished. Then do whatever comes to mind in the remaining years. Tat would be the easiest, no list trailing behind u.
Meanwhile i shall look forward to the trip next sunday. May the year be a fulfiling n happy one for all!
