Mid-Year Update

With half of the year already gone...
Let's have an update of my plans for 2007.

1. JLPT Level 2
Unfortunately, I'm no longer taking it...
I'm taking level 1 instead, as advised by our sensei.

Not so good news for me because it seems
that I'm not going anywhere with my studies.

But then again, I would still want to try my luck on this.
If I fail on this one, maybe it's time for me to move on.

2. Read more
Still trying my best...
I started several books and have not managed to finish any.
Hopefully, I may be able to complete a couple by the end the year.

I also got myself a 1-year subscription of Linux Magazine (UK).
I was able to get it with a 40% discount. Very Nice... :)

3. Get more certifications
I'm done with PhilNITS SW.
I'm going to try my luck with LPIC.
Hopefully, there's another discounted exam later this year.
I just wish that I will have time to prepare for it.

4. Spend more wisely
I already stopped using my credit card for online purchases.
I also applied for an Insurance + Investment in Sun Life.
Most of my money goes there now, so I really don't have
that freedom to spend nowadays... T_T

5. Play more, sweat more
Still on it... :)
We just got more badminton players.
And they're really good...
Hopefully, I may be able to learn something from them.

Finally, a recap of some significant events...
