The Year It Was… 2007
Let’s look back the year of 2007 and summarize the more important events that occurred.
My mentor cum boss Yuk Peng has been transferred back to headquarters at Petaling Jaya. (Link)
I did a video news ala newscaster / live reporter style for The Star, but didn’t go through the editor’s desk. (Link)
Chinese New Year and birthday were celebrated with sadness, shattered hearts, tears, guilts, regrets and pain. I even attempted to quit blogging. It still hurts, even until today. (Link)
The office welcomed Marsha Tan with open arms. (Link)
I attended one of the biggest bloggers gathering ever, Together Gather, organized in the Malaysia blogging scene and met really a lot of celebrity bloggers at one go. (Link)
Nuffnang was officially opened to public and also the start of my sworn loyalty towards the Asia’s first blog advertising community, started by Timothy Tiah and Ming. (Link)
With the money earned from blog advertising, I bought myself a RM3800 HP Pavilion DV2201tx notebook. Additional RM500 was used to upgrade the RAMs and Windows Vista Business. (Link)
My 500th post. (Link)
One of the most important news that I have ever written. I take pride in it. (Link)
With the money earned, I got myself the most expensive spectacles that I have ever bought. A spectacle that will change into sunglasses when UV light is detected. (Link)
My second visit to Bali and came back feeling like craps. (Link #1, Link #2)
Another gadget was added into my possession, the RM275 Logitech VX Revolution Cordless Laser Mouse. Thanks to Alexi Tan for the sponsorship. (Link)
Finally, I attended Emil Chau’s concert, a must do thing before I leave this world. (Link #1, Link #2)
Pathetic income, it made me felt like giving up on my superior. (Link)
Enough of being the nice guy, I confronted my boss. (Link)
Justice has prevailed and I survived. (Link)
My brothers, Ah Yong and Ah Kit have graduated and moved on to their next phase of their life. (Link)
Uneventful yet peaceful. Ha!
The worst food poisoning ever. (Link)
After three years, I took the longest break / hiatus ever. (Link)
Nuffnang featured blogger for the month of November. (Link)
I have been blogging continuously for three years! (Link)
The boycott of Nadeje Patisserie, a cafe that I strongly promoted and recommended in my blog for its unique Mille Crepe. (Link)
The endorsement of Humble Beginnings, another Mille Crepe shop founded by Amos Chong. (Link)
December 11, I bought another gadget, which is the most expensive gadget that I have ever invested in. However, I have yet to blog about it. Link shall be updated at a later time.
Well, that basically summarized my 2007, in a very much general way. There are more finer details throughout the year but those are omitted. The numerous eating trip to Kuala Lumpur, outings and meeting up with new and old bloggers / friends, sweet little things that you guys and girls did for me and many more. Life has been wonderful and colourful because of you guys. Also, I would like to take the opportunity to thank everyone that have helped me one way or another, be it financially or emotionally. You guys have been a great help and friend. You know who you are, there are just simply too many to mention.
Overall, I think I did pretty well for the year 2007 which I felt I have achieved more stuffs in terms of goals, achievements and materialistic wise. However, what’s not good are my academic studies and year 2007 was pretty harsh on me, emotional wise. Well, things have subdued for now and hopefully, things will start to look better for year 2008 especially for my academic.
Resolution for the new year? None, as usual. I don’t see the point of setting goals but yet not being able to achieve after 12 months. I prefer to take things easy and set it accordingly. However, I do know what I want to do and hopefully, execution will be smooth. Wish me luck.
Happy New Year and may you have a blessed 2008!
See you in 2008!

January 2nd, 2008 09:58
Wow, you’re much more special than I thought. Very less student can working and studying at the same time~
Waiting to see your new gadget. is a watch that can shot laser at enemy?
January 2nd, 2008 20:43
budget? hmm… 2K plus? As I have mentioned earlier, an entry level. No need so “canggih” ones now… :D Maybe when I start to earn like you.. haha..
January 2nd, 2008 22:39
VHanded : Nothing special about that actually. Heh! That reminds me of Buzz Lightyear’s laser gun. Haha! No, its not a watch.
Felicia : If RM2k, I would suggest you chip in another RM500 to RM600 to get an entry level dSLR. Oh well, if you insists, try Canon PowerShot G9 or Canon S5 IS. Both are equally good but different shape and sizes.
January 3rd, 2008 00:34
yes i’m actually looking for a dslr. someone recommended nikon d40x- RM 2.3k?
or i’m thinking of canon eos 350d.
January 3rd, 2008 00:43
Felicia : MSN me.
