Daily Life: Reflection 2017


By the time I posted this item it will be only noon of last day of Dec but it is still good to get this off before the last dinner of 2017 keeps me busy later. I will start with what is more important this years


Health: Managed to keep my weight gain to a min. now the weight is max at 74kg. The diet n workout together plays an important role in losing n maintaining my weight. More multi-grain, mixed trail nuts, more long distance runs n HIIT exercise. I did not do an annual report due to lack of funds but its ok to do one every 2 years.

Religion: The daily 'Word in Season' does help to calm the spirit and keep the anger behavior in check. Do what is right n continue to do it. Started contributing S$50 as pledge for 2017/18. Praying for is to join a small group to grow the faith.

Wealth: This year see more spending n downs than ups especially with the overseas trip to Hong Kong in Oct to celebrate GF birthday. Also is getting tough on FX trading.losing more than gain for the second part of 2017. Will have to be more careful in 2018 since market looks to be overheat at the moment.

Love life: This is one of the surprise for 2017. started only dating in April 2017. I will need to see if this relationship will go far as communication seems to have broken down after oct n we have not met since then. Time do play a part since she works all day at novena koptiam n off days is on thursdays which i cannot take off.  I am also taking this time to take stock of everything so that to see if she is the right one for me. 1 aspect is she is a non-believer which i see as an issue if marriage is on the cards. cannot be one believer n non-believer as it will cause issues later when kids enter the picture.

Sports: Continue with pacer duty with CT runners n cross-fit sessions on tuesdays. This prove to be a better case as i build on my core through wall squat n planking. Moving forward to 2018 will see max 1 overseas run per month n limited runs in SG to 21K n above. this will keep money spend limited. I miss the 2017 swim for hope so will want to do it in 2018.

Work: The second part of 2017 was a very busy time due to Industrial 4.0. the first project on the TC PLM consume a large part of my time in setup, leaving many infra projects to be delay especially on level 7 which is the new warehouse setup. the infra also went through many changes with the most noticeably on the Vlan setup which allow the split of internet only access for the wireless. More POCs is also in the pipe which will keep 2018 very interesting. Multi-layer defense looks to be on track to be completed before first half of 2018.
