Thea December 24th, 2007
A wise man says that time flies. I do agree with him. We are almost in the edge of 2007 and be prepared to face another new year, 2008.
Writing resolution for a year ahead, I did it in 2006 for the last time. While for 2007, I was too lazy to make it for I wanted to see whether I could accomplish things that I planned without memorizing it in my brain or writing it in my notebook. The result, nothing’s special. Despite several achievements in my work, I find nothing extraordinary in my life. And therefore I would like to start it again, next year. And here are my resolutions for 2008.
In work
The urgency of spreading coverage in Africa and Europe is intolerable. Thus next year I will focus more to Africa and rest of Europe where my company has no roaming partnership yet. I have listed the country and the operators and put them in special considerations-based-category. Then, it will be much easier for me to prioritize them and put more efforts to speed up the launching. What makes me more enthusiastic is our new carrier which is unbelievable fast in responding our request. It’s much better than our incumbent carrier. Sorry to say:(
What I want to do more in my work is completing the content of international roaming website. I have been dreaming to provide the most complete information that can be accessed by our customer service officers from Aceh to Papua. It’s not that easy, though I must finish it in 2008, InsyaAllah.
In family
I want to call my dad, my mum and my grandma more frequent. I want to remind my mum if she has her apple juice every morning, my dad whether he has taken his drugs or not, or my grandma if she has her calcium milk. In 2006, I should admit if I neglect them a little bit. Next year, there’s no more reason that I don’t call them once in a week at least. When I go home to Jogja, I promise not too often to go out and stay at home longer.
In personal life
I take a pledge that 2008 must be a start of my healthy year. The first thing to do is starting the detoxification which I was used to do. When I was still living at Jogja, I did detoxification once in a week. Fruit juice was the only food that I took. Reading it in a health section in a magazine, I know that such detoxification is good for my health. Then, I want to do exercise more often. I promise to Ogi that next year we will go swimming, an exercise which was done only once this year.
Reading book more in 2008!!! This year I ever planned to read a book after taking subuh prayer. It turned out that it didn’t run effectively as I preferred to continue my sleeping afterward. There are several books that I don’t read yet.
Realizing that my English is continuously experiencing degradation in quality, then improving my English skill is a must-to-do list next year. I wonder if I can still obtain IELTS score just like when I applied scholarship two years ago. English is very important and it’s a key for entering worldwide experience, then I must not be satisfied with my so-so English skill. This blog is a media which I aimed at enhancing capacity besides reading and talking with native speaker. Due to some reasons, I never be able to attend the mastertoat meeting every Thursday. Meanwhile, it’s very good to drill my speaking and presentation skill in English. Therefore, I am dreaming of having a speaking club where the participants can speak their mind in English. That’s just one way to deliver the idea in English constructively. Anyone would join me???
Courage is definitely important to start all efforts in realizing my 2008 plan. I am hopeful that I can accomplish all. Bismillah:)
