2007 in review

Another year gone. 2007 has been quite an interesting year.

Work

Work-wise, I'm still working at the same place, doing the same sort of stuff. Didn't get as much of a pay rise as I was hoping for. It's the first time in the many years that I am with the company that I feel that company does not value my work. "Quit, find another job", you'd say. That's what I'm doing, except it's in reverse order, find another job first, and then quit.

Study

Study-wise, finished another three subjects this year. Only has eight more to go >_<. That's another 4 years worth of part-time study if I continue the (lazy) way I am, taking two subjects a year. Funny enough, for the subject I didn't expect to do very well, I received a letter from the lecturer congratulating me on being the top of the class.

Old Friends

During a friend's engagement party, I managed to meet up with so many old friends that I haven't met in six, seven years. It was great to have caught up with them. No doubt I'll be seeing them at the wedding sometime in near future.

My high school reunion was also held this year. Again, met lots classmates from yonks and yonks ago whom I haven't seen since graduation. Unlikely to see them any time soon until the next reunion, which is years away.

Finally got on FaceBook, and after a little troll through friend's friend's friend's friend. I've found lots of old classmates. Some were overseas, some interstate. Some married, and some already have kids. Time flew so quickly by.

New Friends

Went on a ski trip during winter with some colleagues who I have seen at work over the years, but not actually spoken to. Strange things happen this year, eh? Made some new friends through the colleague. Now I have more people to talk to at work when I'm bored ^_^.

However, I'm still single. Didn't come anywhere near close enough this year. There was someone I was interested, but didn't work out quite the way I thought it would. Well, hopefully next year will be a better year. But that what I said the year before. Oh well. Such is life.

Still waiting for my first lotto win ^_^;
