first day of the new year - a good juncture to housekeep the year that has passed and plan for the year ahead.
2013 has been a well-travelled year - one which i have got the opportunity to visit more places than any of the years in my life. took a short break with dearie in hongkong, induction to uk and wintery christmas in korea with my family. a trip to uk and a holiday in dec, these would be things hardly possible if i have not chose to move on. it was a leap of faith for me; i hope i have landed on a land of greater possibilities.
second half of 2013 was pretty challenging with the leap, but all that has definitely slowed down into something more manageable now.
i have been seeking out new challenges for 2014, this must be a lifelong pursuit for me. i started to re-read some of my favourite zhang xiao xian novels again. that's the least i can do to salvage my deteriorating chinese.
tax courses are on the list right now. that'll take me a good 12-24 months to fully attain what i want to get.
while i am hoping to find more time for myself and with my loved ones, i am also hoping to do well in career, earn more, save more and enjoy another good year ahead.
