Finally after a long long wait of 11 years my dear Mister Ox is back to visit. Seems that he has "blossomed" in proportion and this year the most common comment heard of him is "Hey isn't that a pig? It isn't the year of pig right? No wait, oh there's the tiny horns!" He should really set himself a new cycle resolution and make sure it's kept when we see him 12 years later.
Can't really celebrate this year due to the passing of my grandma, but the mood is still there somehow. The radio and tv programmes constantly remind us it's the festive season to be joyful and generous (luckily I'm still on the receiving end *giggles*). Anyway my resolution this year is to make the best out of all opportunities I'm presented. Be thick-skin, network, get to know new people and re-connect with old friends. Which is why I appreciate efforts from old buddies when they organise gatherings and send rubbish mass emails. At least it keeps us connected (and our inbox flooded). So my first step was to attend my sec school NPCC gathering. Small, but cosy. Seems easier to talk to the guys now then before, previously there's only complaints to speak of. No offence guys, it's all history, I promise. Anyway the opportunities to network just come like fish to water. Then, my new colleague is a schoolmate from jc, not particularly familiar previously but the common roots were enough to strike a good start. Tomorrow's gonna be another day! Actually later, since it's past 12 midnight. Gonna spare half hour of my afternoon to catch up with a few old friends, hopefully teachers too, from Anderson. The good ol' days re-lived. Time for bed!
