The End Is Near...

Hi readers! We are now nearing towards the last few days of 2011, and I hope that everyone had a great 2011. For people who didn't, well, fret not. You can have a choice to make 2012 a much better year for you.

So how are we going to make 2012 a much better year for ourselves? What's a better way than making a New Year's Resolution and make sure to stick to it all the year. Let's do some review.

What are your 2011 resolutions? It may be:
  • To lose weight
  • To spend more time with your family
  • To run your first marathon
  • To join more Bedok Reservoir-Punggol Heights RC events
Whatever your resolutions are, and whether or not you succeed, put it all down and let's look forward to a more positive 2012.

Although I personally missed out on some of my resolutions, I did managed to achieved 2 that I am proud of.

They are:
  1. My Class 3 driving licence
  2. Running a 14km race (Although I aimed for Standard Chartered 10km, but I guess it's better I managed to look a longer race)

Remember to Keep Going for the Goal
And here are my resolutions for 2012
  • Running in my first Half Marathon
  • Running in 4 Races throughout the year
  • Have more fellow residents taking part in our events
So residents, are you ready to embrace 2012 with a new beginning and a whole new start? I AM and I hope you so.

To help start you off with making a good resolution, I have provided some links for your reference.

I wish you a Very Happy New Year!

Overated 13th Month Bonus?

Recently, it seems that our Singaporean pay structure has come under scrutiny. The argument was that our 13th month bonus is not really a bonus, but really it is our pay that we had been shortchanged.

Let's take a look at the argument.
