- My 2010 Wrapup -

It just feels like a MUST you know… =)
It’s the sorta thing that you would tick off in the end of a yearOpen-mouthed smile


1. New Moments with my family.
Well, since i lost my uncle back in january last year, i have gotten so much closer to my grandmother (and i am very thankful for that, since she is the last grandparent that i have left, and i never knew the other three who passed when i was very young), i’ve gotten closer to my cousins as well, had sleepovers, yamcha moments, mah jong moments that i definitely enjoy. i do really love a good family time. and i do miss my uncle whom i call Ah Gu every time i enter through the office doors. makes me appreciate everything i have even more.

[I didn’t get to meet with Wayne in 2010. First time ever of not meeting him in one whole year since he was born =’( ]

2. New moments with my (old) friends.
I had a ton of outings with my ex-schoolmates. A TON ! It was great, we baked cakes, pizza, went out for drink, gyozas, mango sago, all kinds of stuff. The pictures were great as well. People ask me why I waste so much time taking pictures and stuff. Well, I have really bad memory, and not only it’s a hobby, I smile and laugh every time I flip through all those pictures, they mean a lot to me. In 5 years time, maybe you will feel the same.

3. New Moments abroad
Yes, I traveled a lot in 2010. Europe has the most beautiful countries and I’m in love with all of them. France, Germany, Holland, Belgium, Switzerland and also England. I’m very fortunate to have been. =) 








My favourite places are Switzerland and France.





Also, in December, my family and I went to Taiwan. =) I’m a real banana, so I wasn’t really looking forward to it, but it turned out to be a real nice trip =D All the way from the north travelled down to the south of Taiwan. hehe.










4. New Moments in KL

I hang out too much in KL. hehehe. but it’s a must, since my boyf and I are making up for the year plus that we’ve wasted hiding. XD He brings me to a whole lotsa places cause he knows it well and i dont. hehe. yes, i’m so loved. heee, and he's the best. :)


























5. New Moments in University
UCSI. It wasn’t my very first choice. And yes, one might say I wasted a lot of money for not going to a public university but my parents had hoped that I would get a public uni in KL, and because I didn’t, they got me in a private university instead that is in KL. (long story short) 
I’m here already. Deal with it.
I did great for my first semester (not full marks lah) but I'm really impressed. hahahhaha XD
I met a bunch of new friends that are really psychopathic in a way. 
We chat and talk too much, and have real fun. =)

7. New Birthday Celebration Moments
Had yet, once again a lot of birthday celebrations. Including my own 20th birthday! =) The biggest meal I’ve ever had in my life, surprise cake from friends I only met for a couple of weeks, cutest birthday present from my sweetest roommate (my first ever roommate Winking smile ). And phonecalls from loved ones, hehe. Smile


My birthday comes first in 2010

Birthdays of my friends~











8. Was on an Education Magazine for doctorjob (hahaa. i needed 10 things in this list!)




9. Had alllllll sorts of food this year. Many firsts

  Too many pictures to post up. (Believe me!)


10. My thoughts about 2010

 It was a simple year. The first year that I got a real long break from studying (for about 9 months!) I could have had a baby already! XD hahhaa (okaaay, not the best thing to joke about =p) 

I learned a number of things during my free time in twu. drawing, recipes, sushi, cakes etc. then in uni life, i learned to be independent, to deal with a new environment, new people, new society. to cope with the competition in KL. studied and fought real hard in my first term, (as in real stressed out mode: crying in the middle of the night kind) doing part time work while waiting for holidays, earning my first piece of real money =)  going places and admiring the simplest things. 

Well, it was a year that I spent with family, friends and myself. had no goals for 2010 (i don't set resolutions). i just plan on enjoying the time i have and fight real hard and i did. =)


Year 2010. CHECKED!

January 3, 2011

- It’s 2011 already?! -

 

It’s all awfully quick isn’t it?

Well, I’m sorry I didn’t do what I planned on doing earlier.

I’m actually really busy recently helping my sister write two Year 1 Grammar books for a freelance job.

I had to prepare 2000 English grammar questions in 4 days!

It was AWFUL.

But well, I do get paid. And this will officially be my first job (I don’t think giving computer lessons count right?) haha.

 

Hmmm. I know what my next post is gonna be,

But for this one, I’ll tell you what I did for my first New Year’s in KL. =)

 

Well, I had a heck of a time with my boyf in Mines last Friday.

We ate, and chatted, and drank, and chatted, and even caught a movie! [Gulliver’s Travels]it was okay. i’m not a jack black fan, but good story neways.

Mr Bean is came to Mines on Christmas.

(not the real one, i tak tau apa ciplak yg datang)

 

 

 

 

My boyf. Drinking in OldTown.

 

 

 

 

Before the movie began, in our couple seat. =)

(Not much difference)

[but Mines did upgraded its cinema, so it’s now called TGV]

 

 

 

Taking picture by the toilet. hahah XD

 

 

 

My boyf and I then head to Times Square to have dinner.

In Room Eighteen, I know the place sounds coool and all,

but it’s a lieeeee!!!!

They serve Chinese cuisine (plates with food) Smile with tongue out for like RM 13.00 (minimum price). and the quantity was the tiniest thing ever.

Observe:

This cost me like RM 13.80 (if i’m not mistaken)

And i wasn’t even have full,

maybe cause I used up my energy being angry. hahahhaa

[it’s actually flatter that how it looks here – angle problem]

 

 

 

What my mess look like. And I’m still pissed.

 

 

 

His shoes – Nike. My shoes – Adidas.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Only after a while we met up with Kiir, Pang and Chok.

In Starbucks @ Sg Wang.

Kiir & me

 

 

 

TanLek and me sharing Java Chip =) Mmmmm~

 

 

 

Kiiiiiiiiiiir

 

 

 

PangPang and Me Red heart

 

 

 

Then, the two of them together XD

 

Then… Well.. The pictures will tell the rest of the story. =p

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We all got home around 1.15am.

Pang & me then slept over at Kiir’s place.

And ended up chatting until 6 in the morning.

LOL. bloody tiring day, but definitely a fun start of the year.

 

KL’s New Year’s celebration was okay.

the fireworks weren’t long enough. it was like 8 minutes?

The one in Tawau was like 15 minutes. =.=

Hmmmm. next year different venue, okay? =)

 

Also, the KL people are really rude and inconsiderate,

That’s for sure. (okay lah, mayb just SOME KL people)

There were spraying the “foam-in-a-can” everywhere,

Even at random strangers.

 

And then throwing the empty cans on the roads of KL city centre.

Pissed me off so badly.

there was one guy who was showing off fire blowing using a can of Ridsect (bug spray). u know, the highly flammable stuff…

i was like wtf. hope u burn ur face one day.

 

You should have seen the mess after the countdown.

Twas ridiculous. hated it.

I’m a “if you wanna have fun, clean up afterwards” kinda girl.



After having brunch at 11 in the morning on 1st January 2011.

(yes, that includes my sleep + bath + walking like… 400 metres? 5 maybe?)

We walked past a bakery shop and then went in for a look.

 

Ohwell, why not ? haha Happy 2011 !

 

 

 

She’s happier than i am, =p

 

 

 

 

That’s her “peace” sign

 

 

 

 

 

After taking a bite of the strawberry XD

 

 

Well, I hadn’t blogged in a long time,

And I know it’s no excuse….. but……

I made enough money to go to paktoh for 2011 !

yeayyyyy.

Ah-HA!

 

Make 2011 worth it, Red heart

no excuse to be lazy no more

(and i’m not just talking about myself) Winking smile
