Welcome 2012!!

It's already 2012!! And I started of 2012 with so much content no one can express. Life is full of surprises! So many surprises came to me last year, and I hope that it continues to come this year, (but make it a happy surprise please!)

Then, all of a sudden, we are already gone thru the first week of the year 2012, which means, we are left to another 51 weeks of 2012. I wanted to make a new resolution for the year 2012 before 2012 actually starts, but....... I was just too lazy to create one.
Instead of procrastinating, I thought I might as well just do one! To keep myself checked, and to evaluate myself better. So, here it goes!

I decided to make some of last year's resolution as apart of my 2012 resolution, which is

#1 Travel more!!
Well, I might not be able to travel as much as I did last year, but I would like to grab any opportunity and chance to go travel! This time around, I wish I could travel more to places in Japan, since I'd be working here, I thought I might as well use this chance and time available in japan to discover more of this beautiful country. I'd like to go to southern part of Japan, Okinawa, and Hokkaido! :) At the moment, places that are lining up to be visited in the first term of the year 2012 are, Los Angeles, USA (to visit my dearest Ristina), Phuket ( for a bestie trip with my dearest Lily) and Okayama (for a conference I'll be presenting).
Hurm,. Where else shall I go.....?

#2 Curb my spending a.k.a SAVE UP money!!
Oh my.... This is one of the hardest resolution I have to keep on trying. I would like to have myself checked every month as to how much I spend for those frivolous stuff, i.e. clothes!!! make up, and FOOD. Haha. Yes, I'm guilty of spending too much on food, because I'm so dead lazy to cook and eat at home. I spend my money crazy on bento at the convenience store, eat out, and Starbucks. >.<. I practically have venti sized drinks every time I go to school, which is bad, considering how much calories and caffeine I consume! Gaaaaah!!

#3 settle the unsettle
My problem not to be stated here.:p

#4 perform!!!
I wish to perform well on my final year thesis, final presentation, and on conference I'll be presenting and make my lab's supervisor proud of me! :)
Then, I would like to perform excellently in my career, develop the undeveloped part of me, gain as much experience and knowledge from my work place.
Next would be to perform as a good daughter, friend and partner. I shall strive to make up the lost time, and also be more compassionate. A friend said that I'm heartless because I'm just expressionless. Like talking to a wall. :( I'm a good listener, but not a consoler. thus, I would like to try to open up more and learn to express and learn communication skills that I'm suppose to have.
Distance shan't cost me my relationship with the people I love!

#5 take good care of myself
This is the thing I dreaded the most. I think it's time for me to take good care of myself, health wise. I don't want to have anymore more battle with weight. I went back to my highest recorded weight when I went back to Malaysia, and I struggled to lose em back. (not really struggling, but.. I hate that figure on the weighing scale!) so, this year, I might try to include light exercise, and also to eat wisely so I won't go maniac when I step onto that scale. At least maintain my current weight throughout the year! :)

Fuuuh~ that's one long post!
I wish I could stay to my resolution! :) what's yours?
