Good Bye 2008, Hello 2009!

2008 was a year where:

- I rediscovered my true self
- I entered a relationship which has become something more precious than I ever thought possible and it brings me more happiness each and every day
- I developed a more meaningful relationship with my Dad
- I discovered and connected with more of my family
- I made alot of new friends who have become an essential part of my life (Hello Sayonians!)
- I reconnected with friends whom I had lost contact with and strengthened my friendship with others
- I made an important career choice which has given me new focus in life
- I rejoined the gym and ran 10km in the Singapore Standard Chartered Marathon
- I understood the importance of good health
- I started taking Japanese lessons

In 2009, I hope that:

- I gain more understanding into who I am and continue to develop and grow
- I am able to give more in my relationship, be more understanding, loving and caring for my girlfriend and enable our relationship to progress to a higher level
- I will continue to bridge the gaps within my family and achieve a closer relationship with everyone
- I will maintain and cultivate the friendships that have come to mean so much to me over the years
- I am able to persevere and devote my time and energy into making The Plum Project a success
- I find a solution to my health problems and can return to my healthy lifestyle plan including running the half marathon in the Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon
- I help in building at least 1 successful Sayoni event that will become a landmark in Singapore lesbian history
- I will be able to collaborate successfully with my girlfriend in writing the first ever Chinese Lesbian Play in Singapore
- I manage to save some money and make some useful investments
- I progress reasonably in my Japanese language quest

As cliche as this seems, I think this new year is truly one that will give me even more new things to look forward to. In that past year, I found the meaning of life to be more than I had ever imagined and I can only hope that this coming year brings me even more good things.

To bigger and better success in 2009!
