2008 has been a great year for me...
It did have alot of ups and downs but this time I was prepared to handle it. I can't recall any time when I was sad over anything other than a movie :) I do tend to get very involved with books and movies and everyone close to me know about this. However, they never ever comment on this odd habit of mine. :)
January:
My year started with a new job... Its sort of stress free and I like it. Good thing is that I'm not on call 24 hours a day. And I am not covered in cement dust!!!! Only thing is that I have to follow all rules that of a Food Industry...
February:
Nearly lost Mum. Scared the living daylights out of us but finally found out what was wrong with her and the reason why she was sick so much all the time... she is allergic to salicylic acid which is found in alot of vegetables as well as in asprin... after eliminating certain food produce I have seen a remarkable improvement. She hasn't had any attack so far!!!
April:
Dad had become very very sick. Doctor had sort of given up. The problem with my dad is that he is not interested in food. He will only eat when he is forced to eat... (How I wish I had inherited this trait.... I just love my food which I think is a curse at times.... :( ) So got Dad to listen to me. Sat him down and spoke to him about how I want him to live for us now... And so far he is doing great.
September:
I started contruction of my house. My dream house for my parents. The house is designed by Mum and its a thank you gift for my parents. Hopefully everything will be completed in February 2009 and we'll be able to move in March.
October:
I had a short business trip cum vacation in NZ. Beautiful place and beautiful people. 5 days was just too short a time to tour the place. I am defintely planning a return trip for sometime in the near future.
November / December:
Got rid of alot of excess baggage that I was carrying. I should have done this a long time ago but I don't know why I didn't. Maybe I wasn't ready then. Whatever the reason... I am relieved and happy now.
I am so excited about the New Year - 2009. By March I would have accomplished everything and fulfilled every promise that I had ever made to my parents. These promises were silent promises which were only made in my heart and never uttered to the people concerned. Promises which have taken 20 years in fulfilling... So right now I am the only one who knows what next year will mean to me. And this is one reason why I'm eagerly looking forward to March.
