sidenote: I can't NOT capitalize the first letter of each word in the title. What's my problem?? Occupational hazard, I guess.

Time really flies when you are not watching. This is the second post on the approaching new year. And the reason is that, maybe I am a little emo. Maybe it's the drinks. But hell, that was one helluva year. I am not the kind of person who lingers on history or the past because i believe there is so much more in the future.
I want all of that and if I keep looking at the past, I can't have all of the future that I deserve.
But this year, so many things happened that I can't help but reflect.
2010 is for refocusing. Realigning, retuning, rewriting some goals.
2010 is gonna be one big mama!!!
Not too far off from our entry into the new year, I expect to find more pleasure in writing. More pizazz and maybe even completion of my 'hanging story'. No, it' s not really hanging because it's done. I finished the story, except for the ending. I want a pow-wow ending but I can't come up with one! Damn frustrating!!
And it's due for the editing process too but being the big fat, ugly procrastinator and workaholic that I am....urgh.
In fact, I cure that procrastination by poring YET another new story.
I can't even end one properly yet, and I am onto another one. I know. Come on, come on. This is what I am talking about. Focus. Complete. Lunge ahead!!
CHHHAAARRRRGGGGEEEEE!!!!
I was kind of a little sad when I read the news about this - there will be no live-in Indonesian maids in Malaysia anymore.
There are pros and cons to having a live-in maid, as with everything else, but for us, we enjoyed more pros than cons. Back then, when my kids were little, we brought in a family of maids to help with...well, just about everything, and we were like two families merged into one. They ate what we ate, we sleep, they sleep, we shop, they shop, they joke, we laugh, we joke, they laugh...for me, the maid I hired was more like a sister and side-kick to me.
For that few years, I was dependent on her to mind-read my schedule and when I need or don't need help. She picked things up quickly and we ended up having lots of moments whereby we were in sync. Today, two of them are on my Facebook and we were gleefully chatting over Facebook Messenger since they've just discovered the wonders of the Internet and Social Media.
Since we were more like partners in crime, I f…
