Chinese New Year is around the corner, everyone were busy shopping, working out to loose the fats piled up during Xmas and New Year, cleaning home, cut hair, and all sorts of cleaning up and to achieve a new feel and new look right when the new year came.
Upgraded to Wordpress 2.3.2 yesterday and changed my theme to a three columns theme just an hour ago. I have also added a small banner to wish everyone Happy Chinese New Year. May this new year bring us prosperity and happiness. This weekend will be a last weekend before Chinese New Year and my peak time to finish up the left over shopping and get myself ready in appearance.
Yesterday’s evening, while swimming at the Fitness First One George Street, about 7.50pm SGT, there were fireworks rehearsal near the Esplanade area. So, everyone gathered outside the gym and everyone stop swimming just to take a glimpse look at the fireworks. People where saying this is rehearsal for the Chinese New Year celebration. It was quite short though, perhaps just testing out the range of the fireworks.
I will be leaving for Malacca by 5th of February and be at home by noon of 6th, just on the eve of Chinese New Year.
This year round, Chinese New Year is near to Valentine’s day and I will have the chance to celebrate it with my girlfriend for the first time together.
Last year, it was a memorable one and a totally new experience to us in Dumai and Duri, where there were no electricity for more than 5 days with 1-5 hours electricity supplied to certain homes randomly. Everyone bought themselves one generator set. Check out this post if you want to know the full story of it. Last year is the year that my life has changed in certain way. And here I am today going through another year. Lets hope for the best and work hard all year long.
Hope this year will be much better year and fun for everyone…

Just read an article on Bisnis.com titled: “Blame yourself (Salahkan Dirimu Sendiri)” which is really motivational.
The best years of your life are the ones in which you decide your problems are your own. You do not blame them on your mother, the ecology, or the president. You realize that you control your own destiny ~ Albert Ellis.
