The Rise and Fall in 2009

Wow, tup tap tup tap we reach to the end of 2009. Tho' ada lagi 2 hari left but I think it is not too early for me to list out my ups and downs, the achievements and fall during this whole year of 2009.

1) Family

- We are welcoming new family member to my family, my sister got married in June 2009 and she is now 5 months pregnant and expecting a boy!

- I too got pregnant and entering the 4th months of pregnancy.

- My husband and I are already married for 3 years, and we are still in a phase of understanding each other. Of course there is hiccups in marriage but that is normal. At least, we are working out for the solutions and didn't run from it and I love him so strong..;p

2) Financial

- The recession during the early of this year did affect us, Mr husband to be specific. We had tough times during the first half but Alhamdulillah, he already fully recovered by June until now.

- We are one step ahead in achieveing our dream home. The next step has yet to be decided since it is all depending on our final saving. Read: To build a home with cash. But seriously, i sudah tak sabar mahu bina rumah dan rasa mahu saja take up loans tapi tak mahu hutang. So how now brown cow?

3) Career

- Boss decided to upgrading me so yeah! thanks to the company for the pay rise which we so needed for the arrival of new family member next year.

- I have been a positive person when it comes to career for this year. My boss commented that I sudah cool down, and no more a grumpy lady.

- But still, I am a scary boss to work with. I like things to be done fast and accurate like how I always do. My male assistant really scared of me , which of course I marah for reason. I don't like excuses and it is either you do it or you don't do it. Giving such lame excuses will just make me more angry.

- I had tough times to work with some male colleagues/affiliates because sometimes they just don't bother with their job. I even once had a fight with one of them but towards this end of the year we already berbaik-baik and act like nothing happens between us. (This is what I like with working with a male, no heart feeling!)

- As an overall, I love my career but would love to have better opportunity in a different company to gain handsome salary. Maybe in 2010 after confinement perhaps?

4) Friends

- At this age, what bothers me much is family and career. But having a good friends are nice as they occupy us during boredom and being our partner in crime in the office. Friends come and go but they left footsteps in my heart. So thank you (you know who you are) so much for having you, cool people, and made me squeeze for your places in my heart.

5) Others

- I finally bought my first D. I've been eyeing for months and finally got it.

- I didn't do much shopping for myself this year. I already did it in January once and pay a hefty price for good clothes, scarves etc and it is so worth it.

- I still have car and study loans to settle of. Eish eish, bila kah kau nak habis.

- I am happy because I manage my money well.

- Yang part keagamaan, biarlah Allah s.w.t yang tentukan. Saya tak layak mahu evaluate diri sendiri.

So what is my 2010 resolutions? seiously I takde azam, I just have plans and will execute it as how I planned.
