Things to feel =) about:

1)this afternoon my bro sms-ed me saying that he will be sending an email out to all his friends and colleagues to publicise about our fund-raising projects as well as our Everest climb next year. Such a simple yet sweet gesture =)
2) my manager bought 16 calendars from me today too! that makes her the second highest individual buyer after kim boon, and well if you ask me, that’s actually quite an expensive gesture! touched man! 🙂
3) my mum also sold 1 calendar to her colleague in school. 🙂 well although it’s only 1 calendar, i find it sweet cuz as i mentioned before, she doesn’t really approve of my mountaineering stuff but yet she took the trouble to ask her colleague to support me.

ultimately, i know the calendar sales will not contribute that much towards the amount of $ needed to climb Everest. however, i think it’s through all these simple gestures, support & encouragement from family and dear friends that really spur us on and make this a team effort. it’s never only about the mountain…..
