Reflections - 2009

Year 2009 has passed quickly. Reflecting back, it has been a great year in my personal life and work. I am thankful that both of my children are growing well and healthy. Jayden has graduated from kindergarden and will be going on to Pri 1 in 2010. We are happy to hear that he is very well-liked in Jurong Calvary Kindergarden. Our wish is that he will enjoy his experience in Pri 1, do well for all his assessment and continue to be liked by his teachers and peers. As for Maygane, she will be also joining another new nursery school, Centre of New Life. This year will be a foundation year for her and we will be enrolling her in JCK in Year 2011. 


As for Sharmaine, we thanked God that she "pull" through this year being the HOD for Mother Tongue Department. After serious considerations and prayers, she has decided to step down to be the subject head instead. We hope that 2010 will continue to be a fruitful year in her work. 


For myself, i had another promotion to JG5 within one year. I am thankful for the many opportunities in my work, although i had to juggle with different tasks, often challenging and time-demanding. For 2010, i will still be doing the same tasks as i have done. I have to think of ways to do it better. I may also move on to the Turnaround project. 


In terms of my sports, i had a wonderful time competing alongside with my close friends. The major disappointment was the DNF at 150km in Ultra Trail Du Mont Blanc. Lessons were learnt and valued. I will be returning to UTMB in 2010 again. Another wonderful experience i have done in Q4 2009, was to embark on barefoot running and/or minimalist running (in VFF). I have nothing but full of praise for barefoot running. I believed in it so much that in fact, i will be doing a few races in barefoot running for 2010.


To end off this year, was to compete in a charity event, LTAW and came back as first team. 


Like previous years, i will be planning and updating on the races i will be embarking for 2010. Stay tuned.
