I find it so hard to believe today is the moment, the end of 2017 and embracing the Twenty Eighteen. Time always unconsciously passing through even I didn't really pay attention and already new year is dawning.

I would rather say it's been very tough during 2017, especially my health. I noticed gradually dropping when I wanted to do a health screen during year-end. I don't even have a slot for most of the facilities, told me to re-schedule an appointment after the new year.

I've got this bad habit to rush thing in the very last minute due to heavy workload, which I skipped last year because of that. I did my health screen every year end, I still remember there was a time it happened on 30 Dec 2016.

In the past of my stories, I often mentioned about how many to-do-list of mine needs to be accomplished, work is been always my first priority, while the rest comes second and third and the list goes on. It's been a long battle with my career which causing my current health. Now I will change my tone a little, I will need to phrase that, health always come first. Though I been stressing this topic lately, it indicates how important the health is, at least at my age now, I do concern.

In 2017 I achieved my goal as follow:
• Annual oversea photo shooting.
• 1,544 km mileage more clocked than last year.
• Completed Shimano LEKAS 100km even though bad weather.
• Participated Bike Rally 2017 (always wanted to do since 2016).
• Marked the longest ride 182km by far.
• Completed TOGO517 within the given timeframe even though sick.
• Climbing with friends and solo at Fraser's Hill twice in a year.
• Bintan ride with Eastern.
• Managed to join RCCSG Festive500 this year.
• No puncture during RCCSG Festive500's ride only got dropped at the last 10km.
• Completed charity as Fund Raiser as well as a cyclist for Ride for Rainbow 2017.

As today is the first day of the year, may this year bring us more our way of opportunities that allow us to compile our success stories. This includes our health, working out our work-life balance, and achieve our dreams we wanted to pursue.

Wishing everyone a happy new year from MyChar.
