Happy New Year!

Jin's mum said your age correlates to how fast you are travelling through life. For instance, a 10 year-old child will proceed through a year at 10km/h whereas an old fart like me will be travelling more than 3 times faster! And that's a truely scary FACT! People always say end of the year is the time to reflect on the past and make new resolutions for the next. As time is running out faster than ever, it's hard to think of any significant accomplishment of the past year let alone making new ones for the next :) Well, shot less photos last year, got 2 speeding tickets (me and her each) and lost some money in shares are hardly called "achievements"!

We started new year with a big clean out of our backyard which was full of weeds and spiders. I must have killed more than 20 spiders (I hate spiders!!) and found one family (or colony?!) of mice near our gas hot water system. I caught three little mice but decided to let them go because they were just too cute (some might disagree) LOL! But we did go to Bunning this afternoon to grab some rodent bait so Jin can feel safe in the house :)

It was a extremely hot day today and the last thing we want to do was to turn up more heat to cook our dinner. Luckily, our friends Dao and Lek decided to come over and cook dinner for us!! A little intro, they currently work in a Thai restaurant and Dao is actually the head chef there and that could only mean a one thing, a restaurant quality meal at home!!

Happy New Year to all my friends and visitors to my little blog and all the best for the 2009!
