editor’s note E Another year, another beginning Every man should be born again on the first day of January. Start with a fresh page, said American clergyman Henry Ward Beecher who is recognised for his role in the abolition of slavery. Well, except for those who were born on 1st January, we can’t possibly reincarnate ourselves but we can certainly start with a fresh page at the beginning of a new year. I am sure all of us have our own bucket list of to-dos before our body becomes too constraint to do them. Why not let 2014 be the year that you begin emptying out that bucket. Our feature on New Beginnings in Weekendin’s January issue provides some ideas for you to kick off that journey. Another Lunar New Year is upon us (from 31st January), and the month of January will be buzzing as homes get refreshed and stocked up for an important 2 weeks in the Chinese calendar. For those who are celebrating the all-important reunion dinner, we have three restaurants featured in Weekendin’s intheTASTE section for you to ponder over. If part of your dream list includes owning a super luxury car, you’ll be thrilled with our four-page coverage of the new Rolls-Royce Wraith in our intheDRIVE pages. Don’t forget to check out Vernetta’s feature on All Things New and Beautiful. It’s a column I personally enjoy everytime I get the chance to read Weekendin leisurely. 2014 is also Visit Malaysia Year so stay tuned to our section on acrosstheSTRAITS to discover new experiences and ascertain why Malaysia remains the most visited destination for people who live in Singapore So, enjoy another month of delightful dining and help yourself to the assortment of treats that only avails this time of the year. Afterall, they say it’s okay to indulge as this only happens once a year (well... you’ll probably have to factor in the other celebrations that also occurs once a year. hahaha...). Have a wonderful month ahead! avril Sullivan Yours Truly Editor
