Reflections

Sorry if i have not been posting much. We have been settling well in our new place and it has been great staying here. Closer to "civilisation" and of course, our parents. It is really God's grace that we get this place (haha..i am repeating again. We are excited that we are inviting my family over for Xmas Eve Dinner. It will be the first family dinner in our new place and hopefully the kids will have fun in the pool.
Another reason that we are glad to be here, is that we like to rejoin our Cell Group more regularly. Yes, this is something Sharm and myself are looking forward in 2008. At the moment, we are joining the Xmas Get Togther Party at YS's place on 23rd Dec.
It is a sad news that i am not able to obtain leave on Xmas day itself, so I HAVE TO WORK! Really not wanting to miss the Church Dinner, hence Yohannes, pls come early on that day... (just received an sms that he is coming in early..Yeah...)
Looking back for the entire year 2007, I must say that it has been extremely fulfilling and at the same time opening our eyes to many things around us. The first is the birth of our baby gal, Maygane.Til today, both of us are so captivated by her. She bring so much joy and amusement to ppl. The thought of her would melt my heart..The second one is the closeness bet Sharm and myself. After what happened, we would share with each other more and communicate better. Though at times, we still show signs of stubborness. We tend to be more forgiving quicker. Well, we are still learning, aren't we? I guessed for the "bad part", it has to be the selling of the house, dealing with irresponsible agents and renovation issues. We are glad that the saga are over and we hope to put it behind us. On the sports front, it also has been fulfilling that i managed to complete 02 Ironmans this year (IM Langkawi and IM Swiss). I also managed to do my PB (3:47)in the KL marathon (winning SK's bet that i can't do a sub 4 after Langkawi..haha). Coming in 6th in my first Vertical Marathon was also a good achievement for me. (Boy, dun let anyone tell u that stair climbing is easy..Ask them to do it!)To end off with a 3:51 time in Std Chart marathon was a sweet closing to this year's main race event.
Well, it's time to move on. Here comes 2008, it is also time to plan ahead (though it has been pretty fixed).

Wishing all of you a Merry Xmas.
