Sick

I haven't had the inspiration to update my blog ever since 2010 started. Nothing exciting has happened so far although I told myself that this year, I should be doing exciting things.

I've had added work given to me at work; work that is urgent, which means I've to juggle my time completing everything. Then, there's my impending one-month exposure trip to the Philippines in April, for which I am half-excited and half-dreading. I definitely want to visit my "mother" land after having spent a month in India in 2008. This will give me the opportunity to improve my Tagalog, eat Balut and learn about the other half of my race. My sister is sooooooo jealous so much so that she has said that she'll hate me if I actually made the trip there!! hahaha!! Well...that's still two months away and anything can happen in that time.

Thaipusam is on Saturday. I'll not be vegetarian or be carrying any milkpots this year. Although I have the urge to go bald every Thaipusam, I never do it. I have a fear of my hair not growing back EVER..and then what?? No way am I going to risk it!!

Dad's birthday is in a week's time. He's going to be 55. Mum's birthday is also in February and she'll just kill me if I mentioned how old she is. Hehe!! She's one year younger than my dad!!

My sis just finished her exams and so she'll be on leave for the next few weeks. She has said that she would be spending her time polishing up her driving skills but just how much she improves, remains to be seen....

Well...that's all for now. I think I'm coming down with a cough as my throat is soooooo irritated. There's a bug going around in the office. I hope I haven't caught it.

2010

OK...so here's my first entry in 2010. As I said in my last 2009 entry, I have made no resolutions this year and already...I feel free!! Haha....actually...I feel a bit apprehensive. I don't know what is in store for me; I do not know what to expect. I like routine to a certain extend. However, to me, the unknown is always scary. It could be a good surprise (like me winning a million ringgit!!) or it could be bad. Either way, not knowing what the future holds for me is rather frightening instead of exciting.

As I look back at 2009, I realised that I need to do more exciting things. I feel as though I've led a rather boring existence. But at the same time, I'm afraid to step out of the comfort zone that I've build around myself - either at work or socially. That has to change.

Maybe this year I'll go speed dating. Or para-sailing. Or go on a holiday. Learn a new language, maybe Spanish or improve my Tagalog. Anything. It's not a resolution I'm making. But rather, it's something that I feel I want to do so that I won't regret not doing it.

I'm 26 this year. That's 4 years to 30. I want to do something/or a few things before I turn 30. Since dating 100 guys before turning 30 seems to be out of the question, I'll have to look for other things to do. Hehe... :-)

Oh well...that's entry No.1 for 2010. Let's see how many interesting entries I'll post up this year!
