Turning Zero Eight

2007 is drawing to an end. It has been an eventful year for me – ranging from triumphs to joys to downright struggles to pushing myself out of my comfort zone. This year saw a few of first timers -- they were pleasant surprises. I also discovered that I'm not immune to heartbreaks. I was reminded that when you come face to face with the important, you somehow can push aside your differences and carry on. I learnt that I love whole-heartedly. It warms my heart to know that I'm surrounded by caring friends. Sometimes people forget, or overlook things. I experienced that when a door closes, another door opens. I learnt that being transparent is a very big deal for me. In my eyes these have all contributed to my growth.

My best Seven in 2007:
1. Best Read – Ray Kluun’s Love Life
2. Best Cupcakes – don’t know what the place is called but for a price (2 vanilla cupcakes with vanilla and chocolate icing, please..), I can take you there :)
3. Best Music Video – Rihanna’s Umbrella
4. Best Shocker – Me going to Rain’s concert
5. Best Heart-warmer – “I need to see you for a while, in 5 minutes, come down.” Then he placed the pink ipod in my hand :)
6. Best Eye-opener – Those who matter don’t mind, those who mind don’t matter
7. Best Quote – “So since I’m not your everything, how about I be nothing at all to you?” from Beyonce’s Irreplaceable

I have also seen progress with the people around me, what with relationships, emotional strength, parenthood, career, or just the crucial first step to reaching their goal - I am happy for them. To a bigger and more fabulous 2008; filled with laughter, true friendships and all things necessary for true happiness. Happy New Year!!
