Goodbye 2007

The last day of the year is here. Guess it is time once again to reflect on the year that was. Work wise there was the major change where I quit my 12 year job with NCS and got a job with the CPF Board in Oct. But the beginning of the year saw me maintaining one of the most complex systems that I have ever had to maintain and with only 2 people to back me up. It was a real challenge and one I felt I did a good job of. The system that I had maintained since I join the company was finally decommissioned as well, well it took this long and after 12 years on it, I have to say I was sad to see it go. It should have been done sooner. The hardest part was to say goodbye to my friends. Made many friends there and some enemies as well. The new job is great, I would have to say my new colleagues and bosses are very understanding and friendly. A really great bunch of people. Personal wise, had one of the best holidays ever on the Cruise to Alaska that was absolutely fantastic. Starting getting into shape again and all the running and gym work felt good, at least I am trying to get fit finally. The house is finally fixed up and we have lived in it for a year now, this will be the 2nd New Year's. The year ended not too happily when my cousin passed away. Looking forward to 2008 now and hopefully to start a family as well. I should hopefully be able to continue with this blog and maybe keep in touch with friends on the social networking sites like facebook, linkln, WAYN and myspace. I think only facebook I use frequently the others I visit once in a while, not much activity in them as I hardly ever go searching for friends too lazy and sometimes no idea if I got the right person or not. All in the year had it's fair share of ups and downs, I would say about equal. I would not call it a great year for me but I think it was a good one. Tomorrow it will be the new year and time for New Year Resolutions ha ha .... Finally I'm off to catch the fireworks and if it was anything like last year I should be able to catch from home from my ...... toilet.

HAPPY NEW YEAR
