Summary of 2007: Accomplishments & Achievements

Here comes the 2nd part of my summary for 2007...accomplishments and achievements of the goals that I've set back in my 2007 resolutions post.

Lets see......
  • Completed the Competent Communicator programme in Toastmasters (as blogged in this post) - woohoo, I"m a CC now!!!

  • Completed my RX-93V SD Gundam! woohoo x 2!!! (as blogged in this post)

  • I completed the SCJP 5 exam!!! woohoo x 3, I'm now a Sun Certified Java Programmer!!!
    (This I didn't blog abt...and I was meant to, so here goes a small paragraph on it)

    Getting back into the studying mood was tough, making the studying progress more arduous than expected....but none-the-less I made it!!! : ) Finally completed my scjp 5 exam before my end of year trip!!! woohooo! Haven't been so scared about an exam for quite a while now (as i failed miserably in the mock exam)....but yeah I MADE IT and passed with a mark I'm "quite" pleased abt!!! : P woohoo........so yippy...and here just to show off my little badge and certification card! hehe it's MINE!!!!



  • I learnt to play G-tar aka Guitar. woohoo x 4!!!

    This was a totally unexpected and unplanned achievement! But I've always wanted to learn to play the guitar. Just so happens last year that I saw a course for it and just so happens my pals are into it too. Although can't say I've really learnt it well but at least I can say I can play at least ONE song now with performance grade! mwhaahah : P (the song is esp good when looking at fast moving cars too!)

    Me and my good good g-tar mates aka "The Unknowns" in our rehersal (& see my awesome looking black g-tar too! : P)

  • I made it to Japan!!! I went to Tokyo before the year ended (my first time there!) and I even went with my friends AND my parents too!!! woohoo x 5, It ROCKS!!!!!! : P

    This was never really a goal that I set for myself but it was a mix of wishful thinking x stubbornness x determination x a bit of convincing...!!! : P Result in a trip to Jap with the ideal people! arggh I should really blog about my trip and previous trips tooooo... ...always been wanting to do that.....but always lacking in time! >.<

    But yeah the pic below features Mt Fujiyama, taken by me at around 6am inside the Prince hotel room (which has a natural thermal hot pool too....very relaxing indeed)!!!

    Aii sigh~~~!!! So pretty! Ooh and I realised my dream of singing 富士山下 under Mt Fuji! lol : P

Conclusions:

On the whole although I didn't complete every single goal/wish that I set for myself. But I have to say all the ones that I've really been meaning to do it.....I can proudly say I've done it and I am happy of the results too. Well apart from that I've also been able to add in a couple of surprises for 2007, which really puts on the "icing on the cake" and ending my year on a high! : P

So overall I'm really happy of my achievements in 2007....did (mostly) what I set for myself...really got the ball rolling in 2007 yet enjoying it with fun & play at the same time! woohoo!!! \@.@/
