The Optimist's Creed
As the end of 2007 is fast approaching, I'm putting up these words I recently received from my The Secret Scrolls mailing list. To accompany these inspirational words are some of my favourite photos taken and published on this blog in 2007. Here's to making 2008 an even greater year for me and for all those around me with the aid of these simple reminders...

Hilda: Eh tak semua besar2 la. Tapi aku tetap yang paling besar kan? Hehe... BTW the quotes memang been around for some time - diorang just adapted & republish.
Malim kundang: Thanks. Just noticed we're using the same camera. Yr pics are great too. The FL-50 flash's average price range is around RM1300-1800. Got mine for RM1200. Will kick myself if after this someone tells me they found a cheaper price...
Chen: Happy New Year to you too? Any fireworks at Esplanade next week?
Dikya: Thanks. The house is not a real kampung house though. Rumah olok2 aje for tourists at Danga Bay, JB. The fun fair is real though :)

happy new year shah
No idea whether there's any fireworks in Esplanade or not this year. The usual place for fireworks in Penang is Esplanade, sometimes in Gurney. Everywhere would have a massive jam, but I go out anyway. But not this year. I'm going to celebrate new year in Kangarooland, as you put it.
happy new year...
Promise?... betul ker??
so kalu dah janji, jgn lupa tunaikan. sbb janji itu, akan disoal dan dituntut dulu tau.. ingat tu..
welcome, sile sile sile... nanti boleh snap gambo lelawa.. bw abg bear sekali, kita paksa dia buat bungee... ;-)
aku setuju nbc oi... kita paksa dia... kalu tak leh cara lembut, cara keras kita kasi.. biar apapun pun terjadi, kasi gerun sama dia... HAHAHAhA !!!
DBI: Happy New Year to u too. Dgr kawan kata k'jaan Trengganu spend sampai 4 juta utk sambutan tahun baru. Sebab Thn Melawat T'ganu 2008 le agaknya kan. Make sure gi amik gambar byk2 kt sana tu nanti.
Chen: Enjoy your Gold Coast holiday bro. Don't forget to try some kangaroo meat.
Awie: Itu promise pada diri sendiri so kalau tak tunaikan pun nanti tuntut dari diri sendiri la aje.
:nbc: Kalau nak paksa dia tu kena bius bagi pengsan dulu. Kalau tidak mahu nya dia nak buat.
Awie: Oittt jadi batu api la pulak budak sorang ni.
eh doc, jangan bius sampai pengsan.. kita bius badan je, biar dia leh nampak apa kita nak buat, bdn x leh gerak.. (let me imagine - hahhhaa sure bising abis) ;-)
Nice post Shah. Very inspirational, very meaningful. Praying that 2008 will be a better year - good food, good fortune, good film, more good friends, less fat, more fun, more fotos, more festivities, and everything that starts with f.....
