yes i was inspired by liyan’s 2009.
this year was eventful.
i more so remembered the second half of the year more though. In June, went on my very first holiday with my friends to celebrate Niki & Shing’s birthday. Had a whale of a time and screwed up my finances as well along the way. Shopped till I dropped, only to see that the current clothes I’m wearing now are all NOT from Bangkok. Sucks doesn’t it? But we had lots and lots of fun! Ignoring the fact that some annoying person tagged along (tagged cuz he wasn’t invited) that pissed me off every now and then. Though we now eliminated him, I kinda feel bad cuz I started the whole crap shit about him. Shit stirrer sia. But nothing pisses me off more than an egoistic, unaccomplished mat.
so then i also got rid of my other woes, the 3 wise teeth in my mouth that had been causing me some pain through the last two years. Under sedation of course. It was the best wisdom tooth extraction experience ever (though i only had one to compare to), but imagine, removing that 3 teeth was less painful than removing 1! and the wound healed perfectly well too! no swollen cheeks! and i’m so grateful that i actually went to a cosmetic dentist to do this, cuz he fixed the overgrown gum on one tooth that was bothering me for more than 10 years of my life! i have a great smile now and i LOVE IT!!!!
and then i got hospitalized. boo hoo. i nearly passed out from pain in my stomach. i thought was because i held my pee in for a long while, and doing it 3 days straight. turned out to be an ovarian cyst. nothing threatening, but staying in an A class ward in the hospital was better than any hotel stay. *grin* you guys should try it once in your life!
health wise, this year was pretty sucky. never fell sick so many times before in my life. i think it was cuz of the fact that i fucking could NOT get REST when i was sick cuz annoying clients and fellow colleagues would buzz to ask for work done. WTF. MC leh. and then when i don’t recover kena F. Crazy people. I never let that bother me much cuz you crazy folks caused it, so don’t try to put the blame on me man.
my furkids are growing great. ever since i’ve swapped their diet to Wellness Core, Sasha’s been in perfectly good health. no vomiting blood nonsense. Rusty, on the other hand, is getting a little out of hand, eating a shit load of crap and falling sick, well, twice this year. Amazingly, the foods he ate that could really cause him to fall sick (Mars bar and Famous Amos cookies) didn’t do anything to him at all. That little guy is now a serial looter. he loots things from my BAG and the table and whatever he can get those jaws of his on! stop him someone. please.
Found a husky, named her Cody, spent a shit load of money on her to find out she’s not sick, but just has a misplaced kidney. Fucking more than $1k leh. But my momma loves her loads, surprisingly and she’s doing well at Tampines. Happy as happy can be! Rusty got sterilized this year too. if you ask me, it made him behave worse than before. he never stole stuff until after he got sterilized.
work’s been well, good if you look at it surfacely. some people have tried to stab me in the backs but well, i could say failed. it’ll probably happen again, but seriously, i’ll play the game. taking a 4-day work week is making my life quite balance out. I don’t fall sick as much and i have more time to get stuff done. bought hamsters in march, by december, gave away 2 of them cuz i simply couldn’t cope preventing dogs from traumatizing them.
sometimes i can’t get people to understand my priorities in life which frustrate me. if my dog was gonna die and i had a major event on the same week, i’d fuck the event and stay home with my dog even if it’s gonna cost me my job. if my friends wanna hang out and my colleagues have a party, i’d much rather hang with my friends whom i see only once a week rather than people i see 4-5 days a week. time is so precious, and we all need to make the most out of it. so don’t fucking judge me when i say i can’t make it to your parties cuz when i leave this job, you guys will leave me but not my friends. if its a wedding or some big important occasion, i’m cool with attending. even birthday parties, provided i don’t have anything major prior. don’t organize things last minute and BLAME me when i can’t come. don’t ever ask me to work on National Day cuz my furkids are only gonna live for another 10 years or so and i want to celebrate every single birthday with them. and don’t blame me if my dogs mean more to me than anyone or my job. we’re all different right? (this summarizes my absence from parties this year). i have my own life and own friends that have been with me for more than 10 years of my life, is it wrong to choose them instead? where were you guys when i needed help? where were you guys when my life sucked as hell? i’m just paying it forward.
anyway, this year i’m also taking a family holiday! wheeee! two weeks in a boring island, where you do nothing but chill. anyway, as you grow older, you realise how important family is. 
and i’m so looking forward to leaving in 84 hours! i’m gonna miss the furkids like hell, and when i come back i’m gonna hug them and squeeeeeeze them and sleep with them!
i hope 2009 was great for you but i hope 2010 will be even better!
