Tag - What Are My Goals This Year 2008?

I have been tagged by Rose' World on 'What are my goals for this year 2008'! Thank you Rose' World. Normally, I do not reveal my New Year goals to everybody but it's fine, I will share it with everybody this year....haha! I guess it is also a good thing, right? I read somewhere suggested that sharing your goals with your family and friends is also one way to achieve your goals.

So here you go; My 5 main goals for this year.

1. Love and appreciate my family and friends more -

2. Work more on my spiritual journey - :-)

3. Work and work more on my writing skill.
(Wink***)

4. Lost some weight - eat healthily and started to exercise again (ahaaah!) I would like to lose at least 5 pounds. :-)

5. Get my US driving license. Now you caught me! This one was in my goals list for many years now.....haha! My hubby keeps urging me to get this done for many years. Not that I do not know how to drive or never drive before, I had my Malaysian driving license for 8 years before I moved to the US. Okay it's already expired now...haha! I give myself until late summer to get this done. So we will see!

Okay, that's my main goals for this year. Now I am tagging my new found friend Amanda-The Milk Bar.

Yahtzee Game

Do you like to play any game like Scrabble or Monopoly or Chess, just to mention a few? Have you try Yathzee game? Hubby said it’s a highly popular dice game and we should try it. I never play or see the game before. But one thing for sure is it's really a fun game. The unique combination of luck and strategy makes every game really exciting. I wish had played it a year ago when hubby bought it as one of my Christmas present. Yes, we had it sitting untouched on the upper shelf in the closet for a year . ... gezzz!




It's only on the New Year's evening, hubby suddenly in the mood of playing game. Monopoly is the only game we play quite frequently and it takes hours to be over. So he insisted we play Yathzee and not so long I really got hook to it. Hubby was right I would love that game. :-) I had a very good luck racked up bonus points by scoring extra Yathzee a couple times. :-)

If you would like to give it a try you can download the computer version for free. The rules are easy. Give it a try. I bet you would love it. I do!! It is also a great game for family. :-)
