Hey guys. I guess I missed New Year as well. Sorry. I never really thouhgt much of New Year Celebrations. They are better than Xmas though.
I didn't do much. Got drunk at home, went down to the local peir to watch the fireworks. Took the camera, took some photos. Hard to take still photos if fireworks when you're drunk. But some turned out pretty good, as you can see here.
I'm back at work. It's a new year, and I've began my 3rd year here in Thailand. How much longer can I last? Who knows. I originally thought I'd only do 1 year, get some experience, and go home. Now I'm into year 3, I don't know what the future holds for me.
I heard a lot of people don't make it to 3 years, they leave before that. And those that do make it, never leave. So I have a interesting prospect at the end of this year - Stay or Leave.
My New year Resolution is to lose weight. I weigh between 97 and 99 kgs. FAT BASTARD I am!! My goal is to get back down to 85 or less by the time I fly back to Australia. (This will also make the flight more comfortable!!!). So I have given up the drink for a few months. I may allow myself one night a month just to reward myself if I reach my goal of 4kgs per month. By April I should be 83kgs.
It's probably not going to work, as it is always damn hot here, and I can't do one evening of exercise without getting groin rash for 4 days from the sweat. But Iam going to try.
Well, I need to get back to it, I am trying to source some products locally that we normally buy from Australia. Too expensive there!!.
Hve fun, and I hope you all enjoy 2008......
