Geez.

So in about a day’s time I’ll officially be thirty.

Who would’ve thought?

Never in a million years… *sigh* As depressing as it may sound… I guess age-ing is something we HAVE to deal with, like it or not…

I guess it’s also customary to do the standard “reflection time” when one reaches this “dreaded” number.

So…

10 years has practically flew by without realizing it. It wasn’t the easiest of times. Thinking back, I don’t know how I got through it, but I was really glad I did.

Of course good times, got bad times, got funny times, whatever also got. Proudest moments: Fell down, got up, failed again, got up, lose money, got up, failed again, again and again, got up, then “fortunately” got it “right” (phew)… all in a span of 10 years.

Seriously not easy one k.

As one matures, I have learnt to accept that it’s not a “crime” for us to screw up. No point in beating oneself up over spilt milk. Sure it sucks sometimes, its like “How could I be so stupid! Aiyo yo… bodoh-nya!!”

We’ve all been through that, haven’t we?

Of course, screwing up can never be easy on the soul sometimes, but after going through the highs and the lows, the ups and downs in the past , I now know and have openly accepted the fact that it’s actually pretty NORMAL for us to make mistakes, screw up, learn, screw up, learn, screw up, learn. (no one’s perfect, right?)

What else can you do?? Turning back the clock is out of the question, so the next best possible option is to move forward.

This year, “balance” was added to the vocabulary.

Not easy to master “balance” (waaaay harder than I ever thought, I’m still learning and hopefully in the coming year, I’ll get this skill “down” as well

That being said, everything starts afresh, an old chapter will be closed, fresh new ones will be opened.. it’s about moving on and DOING things “right” from now on.

On a lighter note: Next year’s gonna be an exciting year! Plans have been laid out, and it all boils down to November 7th, 2008.

A freakin’ monumental day it is.

If things go well enough, business will FLY.

If not, then I also don’t know what will happen haha.

Plan B doesn’t look so “motivating” for the moment.

So what this means is: We WILL make it happen… WHATEVER THE COST!

Gears will be shift to overdrive Nov 7th onwards… and for the whole of 2009… no more messing around, “risk” will take on a WHOLE new meaning next year… “balls” of steel will be tested like it’s never been “tested” before… creative-ness, business growth “skills” and strength will take center stage… it’s scary just thinking about it now… phew… I can only hope everything will work out the way we “envisioned” it to be.

I really, REALLY hope so.

So dear God, one more time… blessed this road we travel.
