Time flies. We all have survived from December 21st. According to the Mayan, that day a new life would start. People associated that with the-end-of-the-day.

Looking back at 2012, I really did have a great year. My year started with moving to another place. A room that is completely for myself. So, I do not need to share shower and toilet with others.
Then, I found a job with promising career. I got a permitted contract. With this contract, I can borrow money from the bank to buy a house.
After I worked for almost two months, I got my driving license. My higher manager provided me a car. I was even allowed to pick a car I like. It was a nice experience to do a test drive in a brand new car.
The good thing did not end. Just short later, I got SAP exam. Guess what, I was the only one who passed that exam. My team lead and  higher manager was impressed by my performance, since I was the only one among the talented candidates who passed the exam once.

But there is one thing that blows my complete happiness. I heard that my model friend had passed by. The more I think of her, the more I miss her. Even now, I still feel very sad if I think of her. At New Year I sent her a WhatsApp message to wish her a happy New Year. I hope she will do well where-ever she is.

This year, I almost started with my third business. When everything was almost set, one of my business partner did not want to continue. Then, I quit this business. Also, I quit my jewelry business, since co-operation was not well with my business partner. I learned a lot from starting business with other people. When you are in trouble, I noticed that a bad business partner will blame everything on you. I really mean everything: even things that are not related to business.

Leaving this unhappy period, I got many good periods back. I kept my promise to myself. I said that I will visit Singapore/Malaysia every 2 years. I am very happy to able to catch up with my friends in Asia. I even visit a friend who lived in Beijing: my first time visit in China. It was a nice experience. Next time when I visit China, I would like to do more sightseeing stuff.

My life with respect to work is very good. I am appreciated by my client. My client like me to substitute a medior+ consultant who comes from Capgemini. To able to do that, I need to boost my SAP skill. Normally, it took almost 5 years time to able to be a medior. Hopefully, I can achieve that after I have 1 year experience in SAP.

This year, I spent my first Christmas with my good friend Celeste. She invited me to her place. Her parents got a huge house. Here I was able to snap a group photo:
From left to right: Christy (sister), Celeste, mother, father, angmo who I don't know

My 2013 is a good start. I receive 4 cards of my good friends. It is very funny that many of the cards mention about the same thing. They all remind me to find a girlfriend in 2013.

So, what is my New Year's resolution? I hope I can realise the following:
- start playing stocks: my goal is to make a profit of about 30.000 Euros
- more art work in my photography portfolio
- being healthy
- mastering SAP BO
- able to shoot Northern Lights
- visiting new countries
- born of my love life

Let's hope all the best for me in 2013!
