A trip back 2006, Part 1.

Initially, when I started this post, I was expecting a single entry to fill it all. But then, once I started typing, it got out of control. Hence I decided to seperate it into two parts, :P. Lots of things have happened in 2006, some good, some bad, but now, all will remain only as memories...

January 2006.

It was in January 2006 where it all began. It was an impulse totally, rather than something planned, what drived me to it, I'll never know. I blogged. I ranted mostly back then, I was one unhappy dude.

February 2006.

Fast forward to February 2006, I gained some weight due to Chinese New Year's Feast of Infinity. It was also the month of love. Had the chance to meet up with the Fooxion Forumers at SS2 Murni this time around. Anyway, myself, as well as some unlucky readers, began sensing my irregularity, thus the initial signs of me losing interest in blogging. That's just sad.

March 2006.

March 2006, took my first programming certification (and passed, of course, hahaha). Registered myself as a legal voter, marking my first step into politics. Had a trip back to my University to recruit freshies for my ex-company, that was when I felt the oldest at my point of life. Had a short trip to Genting for rejuvenation.

April 2006.

Marching into April 2006, I was still blogging about my Genting trip, proves how neglected this blog was back then. I got myself a credit card too, hohoho! *maintain control, maintain control* Up till now, I'm still owning that single card. I had this chapter 2 of a dream a had some time back then, which to me, is quite weird, at the same time, scary. Oh, I take ugly pictures then. Last but not least, I celebrated the birth of Jed (myself lah!)

May 2006.

Into May 2006, I drove to Gopeng for the first time ever, a very boring little town. Had a mini "Bak Kut Teh" gathering at Pandan Jaya with secondary mates, after not seeing anyone of them since CNY. This was also the month where I tendered my first ever resignation letter to my first ever job, after close to a year working there. I felt heavy hearted leaving, but hopped due to better opportunity. A job is still just a job.

I started work the immediate Monday in Singapore and had a hard time adapting initially, it was all too sudden. Its not easy as I'm away from my family, the girlfriend and all my friends, all alone here. It does not help when the majority of your colleagues are of different race.

June 2006.

June 2006, practically everything Singapore. I managed to borrow the girlfriend's laptop to satisfy my sudden drive of hunger for blogging. It's just Singapore, Singapore and more Singapore. I finally got an MP3 player, since it was on 50% discount. Also, since the price of fast food is quite hefty in SG (no one to blame but myself for not being able to stop converting), I manage to stay away from them for a month! HuaHuaHua! Then I got taunted by the Infectioner, "sei mou"? I did my first meme too...

Also had a health screening making me realize that I was in a really bad shape (my health, not my body shape, okeh?)

Latter half of the year to be continued tomorrow, where all the juicy bits comes together.
