YEAR END 2019


Well it is that time of the year again. In less than a week, we will step into a new year.2020
So many events, incidents happened for year 2019, some pleasant, and some no so pleasant.
Here are some of the memories I can recall for the year.
*My first god daughter st who is now in Australia, I guess is happily settled here.
 In the first year she was there, I still get calls from her and occassionaly messages. Then it stop all together.Well that's the story of my life. Those whom I cared for don't seems to stay for long.They come and they leave.

** My gym dotter left her old gym for another gym, which gave her a better deal. I am happy for her.
 Just as I fear, since we don't get to meet that often now compare to previously ,she  too has drifted away...Oh well...

***  My third whom I nick name weekend dotter, since we only met on weekend most of the time. It was quite by accident she became my god dotter. Someone we met at the outdoor while climbing asked me if she was my daughter, and I replied does she look like me? I guess then she must be.We joked about it and hastaged each other every time we took some selfies. since then we have met quite
often and even celebrate each other's birthdays. She is by far very generous with her time and most
of the time able to accompany me when I make a request to meet up. She also help me to do a multi pitch climb at damai wall,my first ever.

****  This year I decided to keep my beard for the children camp which was in November.some of the reaction I got:-
i. one lady says oh are you taking a vow?
ii. I get funny stares from various people
iii. Some very good vides from some friends,  and even those not so close one. comments like
    it suit you.. or new look?  how I wished I can grew like yours. meant alot.
iv. My car gave me problems countless time this year. I had the engine overhauled, followed by a
    changed of the gearbox as the sensor was not working.It cause me a bomb.Then just a couple of days a got the gear would not engage while driving and now the car is in the workshop. I don't know how much it will cost me this time. My road tax is due next month. what a way to end the year and to start a new year. I had plan for another trip to mulu in May. Now I am not sure if I will have enough
for the trip. I had intended to settle my credit cards debts once I get my bonus, but now it looks like
my plans are going up in smoke.

Anyway Happy new year everyone. Hope you will have a good year ahead.
