IN RETROSPECT(2015)


Wow, time sure travel fast.In less than 25 days it will be christmas, then the year will come to a close and before you know it another new year. Looking back 2015 has been a good year for me. I made some new friends and had new adventures and even rediscovered my passion for rock climbing all over again.

Jan-Feb  : My second year at the new company which was started by an ex colleage. Never thought I  will be working for him.So glad he contacted me since my retirement and after my 2 years tenture at a mill in johor and when I deceided to come back to klang to be nearer to my family. I agreed to accept a low pay just to help out when they first started the business and they(he had a partner) promised to increase my pay as soon as business picked up.And true to their word they did the following year and even gave me a two months bonus.

April: I had the chance to visit one of my dream hill :-the pinnacle at mulu, miri.

Mulu,Miri


May 3rd: Had a chance to help out the Full Gospel Church in Johore for their anniversary celebration.
Rock climbing at Full Gospel Church ,Johor
4th of July 2015.  Had a pre birthday celebration with my favourite BodyCombat/Body Pump sifu, Irene Ang. A gathering of some of the ex GF gym members and some mulu trip hikers.A memorable and fun night.
It was held at Irene's  home at Puchong.




Aug22 2015: My first attempt at a Tower run. It was a 1.5km run and running up a 31 floors.I did it within 16 mins 27 sec Quite happy since it was my first attempt.

August 31st  That's when I met someone special,  We hike together for the first time.

September 2015.  Finally able to make a trip up northern part of Thailand.Chengmai, Chengrai/Chengkam for a mission trip.


October 2015 :Race against Haze
Oct 4th Signed up for my 1st ever Standard Chartered 21km run and was actually looking forward to do this as my pre birthday challenge, but unfortunately the haze was getting worst and the organiser had to cancel the event.
Oct 24th:The Bsn night run,: This was also my first time joining having missed the previous year.Again this too was axed due to the haze.But I went anyway just to collect the goody bag(well it was'nt much of a goody bag, but  it was fun just to feel the atmosphere.There were so many runners who turn up. 
Finally the Puma Nite run on Oct 31st. At first the sky was cleared and the haze had gone .The event took place as planned, but unfortunately running half way it started raining and then thunderstorm. No one informed us the race was aborted and it was only after we had finished the run we found out the arch at the finishing line had fallen and hit one of the runner. No wonder we were diverted to another route.

Well that sum up some of the memories of 2015.
