Back in the neighbourhood.

I am overwhelmed with joy. After being away for so long, it feels so so wonderful to read about an engagement, motherhood and the new experiences everyone is going through. My heart is singing with joyous Christmas carols! (yes yes, theoretically the carols were overdue). And I had great fun attempting Andrea's "Who owns the fish?" puzzle. I had so much fun that I printed out two extra copies and passed them to my brother and cousin to work on. The Brother is still spinning his pencil and pulling his hair beside me. hahahhahah

JUMPING TO the hot topic of the week ... ...
OLD & NEW...

The year 2006. Most my friends had an eventful year with new homes, new babies, new marriages, new jobs, new countries, a new tummy (it was tucked)... I think the babies topped my list. That's quite logical given I am supposedly at the (Indonesia's) national average child bearing age and most of my friends are too.

I would say mine is no different. Went through the wedding, got a new address, got a driver's license, moved to a new job that was as boring as the previous one. Like the year before the last, I have consistently managed to achieve nothing much. I supposed we will always have the following year to look forward to. If I sounded somewhat negative, blame it on my flu or the medication I am taking.

Whatever it is, I hope the new year will only get better. Cause I need more hope and faith to be happy living here.

Blessings counted?
1. I found my best friend from Primary school after 15 years and will be meeting her in 10 days
2. I started work on my future's baby's room (not planning on a kid until Y2008)
3. Long lost friend from No.1 above got me my A Maths text book to sharpen my brains (once again)
4. More quality family time
5. I am still buddies with my two best pals here
6. I read more books as per my last year's resolution

There. I feel much better now.
