Goodbye 2011, Hello 2012!

Today is the last day of 2011, many thoughts have been running in my mind  while mugging for my PM exam on 3 Jan 2012. Looking back the whole year, I have been through quite alot this year. Several milestones in 2011 which I would like to note in my blog for future reference:

Embarked on MBA
The biggest decision is to take up my MBA after so many years of considerations. Someone once told me there won't be any difference with or without a MBA and I was still insistent to fulfill my wish to take up my Master, probably my last qualification of my life. Haha..Scare already, hopefully no more formal qualification required. Yes I agree that studying part time can be a real torture when there's not enough time for anything else. Further study is really a time and money committement, it can be a stepping stone and yet a tripping stone to progression in life. I guess I have concluded that you have to be SUPER sure that you want to go through the years of torture and no life before embarking on such holistic journey. Life can be very very fulfilling but definitely more tiring and stressful. The scariest part is I have only took 2 modules to date, 5 more modules to come in this exciting 2012! :( Wish me luck and bless me with energy, determination and perserverance!!!! Hahahaa....Yes, this MBA journey will be exciting and hopefully end by June 2013, all exams should end by March 2013, jia you Stareo!

Joyce Roomie's Relocation to USA
My bestest roomie has bravely relocated to USA on 15 June 2011, half a year already! :( Times flies and I really miss my roomie for all the crazy moments together, shopping, eating, chatting and gossiping. I know this move is definitely worth encouraging and it has made my roomie a stronger and more independent lady. So far, she has managed her lodging, new car, new social circle, new working environment and new friends from nature (including squirrels, deer and insects) very well. I am so proud of my roomie who has been strong and also embarking on her further studies in Jan 2012, jia you roomie! I am sure you will do as well there, stay focus ya! Looking forward to your returns where we can celebrate our achievements in these few years apart but promise to stay close in our hearts ok? Take good care of yourself.

My Special Someone
I have finally found my special someone this year..Mr. MP! Haha...he prefers to be low profile and shall not elaborate too much about him. Just wanna thank him for appearing in my life just before I turn 30 years old and being there for me during my ups and downs, never fail to calm me down and cheer me up. The journey is not gonna be easy as we are both busy with our studies, but I am sure we will get through this together! :) Jia you and I am looking forward to building our future together.

New Addition to our Family
Haha...expecting a new addition to our family in July next year, someone to call me "Ah Yi" soon!!! Pretty excited for the good news from sis and william for their new creation. Wondering if the little one is boy or girl, can't wait to get some nice and cute things for the ltitle one. :P Hope my sis will suffer lesser pregnancy symptoms and sickness and have a smooth pregnancy process. Be brave and positive sis, we are all behind you and looking forward to meeting the little one! :D

That should round up my milestones for 2011, looking forward to a greater 2012 ahead less the pain of mugging and exams. Haha...May everyone be blessed with good health and be happier in this new year. Let's learn to treasure everyday as a present as we will never know what is going to happen next. After all, we only live once! :)

Time to get back to my book...I must conquer the exam fear! ;(

It's a madness way to end 2011 indeed....

It has been a while since I last updated my blog....been really really busy with work and school. Life hasn't been great but I am glad that I am not alone. :) Work has been REALLY piling up like nobody biz, very stressful and lots of deadlines, think this is really my busiest Dec ever since I have started working. Haizzz....

As for school, been neglected my assignment and using the last 2 weeks to rush for it, submission is like tomorrow! Hahaa...not a fantastic piece of work but seriously just hope to pass this module since I don't have much interest in Proj Mgmt. Hahaa....not that its boring but the things taught are not really interesting or useful in my scope of work now. Probably more relevant to engineers and proj mgrs. Well..my only aim now is to complete my MBA ASAP! Hahaha.....yes second module and want to end it like NOW! Aiyo...just quite sianz of the no life, no holiday, no party and 2 weeks hell study nights.....SCARY~~~ Good luck to me in 2012 as I have 5 modules to clear! *Faintzzzz*

Glad to have supportive family, roomie, buddy, bb and of course someone special who is always by my sidee when I am down or breakdown crying after a day of hard work. Thanks everyone, muacks! :)

Merry Christmas to all, no mood to celebrate Xmas coz need to prepare for exam on the 3 Jan 2012, what a way to celebrate this festive season and start a new year. Haizzzz....
