Goodbye to 2005
What has happened in 2005? Let me see:
- The hoped for promotion in January did not materialised and really got me thinking if it is really worth being so hardworking and proactive in my job.
- My good friend whom I dragged to SDU events found his match at one of the events
- I got my performance bonus, an amount slightly lower than what I received the previous year, despite still getting an outstanding performance review which of course again raises the same question as in January.
- Obtained my Microsoft Application Developer (MCAD) certification.
- Became a regular blood donor as a first step to returning more to society than cash donations.
- Took up additional term insurance (SAF-Aviva) to better align my recommended coverage
- Pay and got myself enrolled in a gym so that I will exercise more regularly
- I started my SRS account after doing my calculations and realised that I do not wish to pay additional income tax next year.
- Made some good returns on my unit trusts investments
- Made some losses on my stocks investments
- Still unattached and "eligible" bachelor
- Started this blog
Seems like a really unexciting 2005 for me. Got to find some new activities to do in 2006 and rejuvenate my boring existence.
