what do you miss?

I miss a Sedap bowl of kuey teow soup with plenty of chilli padi from a resort at Pulau Perhentian.
I miss sitting by Chomrung, sipping a cup of hot milk tea and enjoying the awesome mountainous view before me.
I miss cuddling my love one, whispering sweet nothings to each other just before we pull ourselves out of bed.
I miss watching sunset and taking massive numbers of photos at Grand Canyon
I miss driving through the mountain ridges in New Zealand with Bebel Gilberto singing in the background.

how about you?

this year ...

... has quite a number of hits and missses for me. some of the misses include missing out on winning our nation's annual 10+ million dollars TOTO draw, missing out casting my vote in general election and getting a public holiday out of it and missing out booking myself on the 88cents flight to phuket.
Moving forward (a term, the Pre-Sales and Project Managers frequently use), I decided to list the 7 items that I would like to accomplish by the end of this year. There will be 2 lists, group by difficulty level:-

beginner
1. Spice up this blog
2. Start the "Save The Toy House" Fund
3. Get a 3G phone that is "handsome", "reliable" and "ergonomic"
4. "WOK" up a delicious Maggie Goreng for family and friends
5. Stay in current job till year end
6. Have a romantic getaway
7. Watch less american drama series and pay more attention to my dear ones

advance
1. Wave Vigourosly underwater to the passing Manta Ray and Whale Shark for a free ride
2. Get a 6-pack body (FYI, including my tits, I have a 3-pack body now)
3. Get acquainted with the new Mac Book (anyone willing to give me free ms office license???)
4. Keep my hair longer (Its a difficult thing to do, you know, my hair defies gravity)
5. Put my travel document, i.e Passport in a Safe, locked by 3 combinations which will be held by 3 different nationalites, living in 3 different countries
6. Be less picky and set my eyes on the "perfect" apartment
7. "JAZZ" up my life
