Closure

just got home from my sec sch fren's wedding dinner. this marks the end of all wedding dinners for 2007.

i guess most people would reflect on what they've done and achieved for 2007. honestly, i dun wanna think abt it coz i dun think i've done anything Really Significant. instead, i'll just list down some milestones along my journey thru 2007 (unfortunately i cannot seem to remember anything exciting in the first half of the yr except my birthday....haha!)

mar / apr 07, i bought myself a seiko criteria watch which i've been eyeing for some time. to me, a $400+ watch is expensive but i took it that the company "gave" it to me as i paid for it using the bonus.

somewhere around end Jun 07, i bought the canon s3 proconsumer camera. my old sony cybershot was giving way and most of the parts such as memory stick and li-ion batt were no longer in production. decided to move onto a camera with more manual functions so that i could learn photography and experience with the various modes. that kinda started my dive into photography and since then i've been reading up on photography magazines and books. i've started another url for my photos shot with my canon.
many people whom i've chatted with in the photography forum often asked why i didn't jump straight into DSLR. well,i guess i'm not ready yet. i dunno if this interest is going to be a 3min impulse or a long term plan. moreover, i hv not experimented with manual functions and the cost of a DSLR with lens can easily kill me.

Jul 07 was the major launch for the new Lancer EX. we did a mystery car campaign (the new EX was plastered with black leather and the mystery car url was pasted on the sides) and it became the talk of the town. late nights in the office were common.


Aug 07 was the launch of the new EX where we had a showroom built from scratch at the civic plaza, outside takashimaya. i was kinda the project lead so this whole launch thing really took up most of my time this year.

Bought my archos 604 portable media player (pmp) during the IT fair in sep 07. it's also a gadget which i've been eyeing for the longest time. decided to get it in case i get bored during the ultra long flight to US in nov. hiak hiak...what a great excuse rite?

Nov 07 was kinda the highlight of the year as it was my 2 week holiday to US. cost me a bomb but at least it's good to have a break and get out of spore.

Early Dec 07, i had the opportunity to go for an advanced driving course at kallang carpark. the most fun part was the 180degree turn! it was kinda dangerous but really really exciting!!

that kinda wraps up 2007. now to look forward to 2008 and hope it's gonna be an even better year!
