HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ONE AND ALL

Yep, 2006 is well and truly over and we are already coming to the end of the second day of 2007. I'm sure you have all noticed that, as you get older, the years go faster and faster. The best explanation I have ever heard for that is that, when you are young, say 5 years old, a year is TWENTY PERCENT of your life! That is a HUGE chunk..... and then, each year, that percentage goes down and down and down... till it is such a tiny, tiny part of your life, and it just zooms by!

We have all had a lovely loooooooong weekend here in Malaysia and Singapore - from Saturday 30th Dec to Tuesday 2nd Jan inclusive - and I'm sure a lot of you, like me, are groaning about the fact we have to go to work tomorrow! Ah well, all good things do come to a close, but don't forget that there are lots of things to appreciate and look forward to as well - the fact that we have family, friends, a JOB, more public holidays, etc, etc, etc...

My next thing to look forward to is that Husband and I are going to go and see Il Divo (my absolute favourite bunch of singers) in Singapore on 18th Jan evening. Why Singapore, when I could see them in KL two days earlier? Well, for one thing, the cheapest tickets in KL and the most expensive tickets in SG cost pretty much the same, and, since it IS Il Divo we are talking about, I want the most expensive tickets and I am NOT willing to pay RM1500 per person (so RM3000 by the time I get tickets for my husband AND myself).... ergo, go see them in SG, where the cost of the best tickets, travel (we are driving there and back) and hotel is STILL cheaper than the cost of just the best tickets in KL!! And we get the chance to have a short break as well as meet up with our friends in SG too.

Anyway... to all my friends out there, may 2007 be a truly fantastic year for all, filled with joy, love, blessings, and great good fortune. HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
