Sending 2013 off and welcoming 2014

Guess it had been more than 8 years I need to work until the very last day of the year, but I am not complaining at all. Indeed I'm glad. Looking back, year 2013 had been a great year to me with goals achieved and new surprises too. I am glad that I got a chance to learn investing (and yes investing & not speculating) in the share market through Equities tracker after all these years of wanting to do so but doesn't know where to start. Finally I am building up my investing portfolio slowly, one step at a time. This year too I had been doing more baking other than the forever cheese cake, with biscuits, tiramisu, mille crepe etc.

Other than that I manage to change my 7-yeared old car.
and continue dreaming about my 'dream car'

Got my 2nd camera, a lighter semi-pro digital camera, Sony Nex-6 after 3 years of thinking about it.

And I managed to make 2 trips overseas this year and still coping alright with my finance. Manage to compile our 1st book of the trip together, and will continue the next few as one of my main project in 2014.

Also, this is the year when I had make the most expensive purchase in my life so far - an apartment to continue our journey together after all the hoo-hah that had been going around to secure a loan...

And not forgetting to continue cooking delicious dishes with my partner...
Overall, this had been a good year to me, with ups and down and full of memories. I'm eager to go onto 2014 with more challenges. Although it might be a tough one, despite all the price hikes, I hope year 2014 will bring me and my family more joy and fun. Not forgetting also to hope the coming new year to give all of us the courage to face all the challenges and sail through 2014 smoothly.
A BLESSED NEW YEAR WITH GOOD HEALTH & WEALTH 2014 !!!
