thisguy

so i've really been neglecting this. what with facebook, work and that other blog i'm trying to start up - am i spreading myself too thin again?

my life of late has been a giant post-it note - filled with to-do-lists that grow, strike off, then grow somemore. visa application - check (10 years baby!!!), cicak stuff (in retirement) check, christmas shopping - check...

i've still got tickets to book, accomodation to arrange and new responsibilties, side projects, new friends to meet, old friends to catch up with, books to read, pictures to upload and organise, a car to fix... i am a giant post-it note

i'd really rather be an excel spreadsheet - organised, coded, sortable and neat, than a mess of post-its. but that's going to be my new year's resolution - so i'll save it for next week. which reminds me that i really need to add another item on my post-it wall - sometime next week, i have to list out the important moments of 2007 as per usual blogger/thisguy routine.

it's funny how, amidst all the things i've done, somehow, the culmination of sorts, has only manifested (officially) a couple of days ago. amidst the drama, the million and one things i could've done better/differently, the life-changing stuff i've walked myself through, i've also managed to get myself a promotion. just in time for year-end, for what it's worth, i've managed to do at least one thing right this year...

while i'd like to end the year on a smug note, there're so many other bigger things going on and a wall full of post-its to manage. for now, i'll abandon my wall, and settle for some time with you to close off the year instead...
