November 2014

Third trip of the year and also the last. Laos 2014. Just there for a a very short 2 days. Nothing much but love the sunset and sunrise. People always say sun and moon from other places are always nicer.

December 2014

It will be the month of Christmas. I love Christmas as I love present. As we grew older, presents will be lesser. Nevermind, no presents but wiser. May God bless me with more wisdom.

 Christmas in office. "Merry Christmas" to all.

Last event for the year. It was my cousin's wedding. My 3rd aunt's son marriage. My 3rd aunt is not around. She is in the other world now. She had been battling with cancer almost 10 years ago but she lost the battle. Well done auntie, although you are not able to make it, but you did raised up your children wonderfully. I believe they will continue your legacy. Because of the wedding, all of us gathered again. Much memories developed. Although you were not here, I believe you will wish your son and daughter in-law for a prosperous life. I am happy to meet all my aunts and cousin. May God bless you all.

There ends my year. Fruitful year.

* Today I close my door of my past, I open to the door of my future, take a deep breath, stepping on to and starting a new chapter of life*

Hello and Welcome 2015..I Welcome you with love and joy. See you!

Recap of 2014

It was indeed a long and short year. Is not too short and is not too long. All I can say is I have experienced too much this year. Every start of the year, people will say "Oh, well. This year is a good year". Towards the middle, it would still be but after middle year, everything just dropped. Low in energy, low in mood, low in everything. We tried to find meaning again, and most people will say well, let's have a new resolution for next year. Shouldn't it be good all year?

Issues had happened so much towards Malaysia. All of those disastrous were really bad. Will Malaysia be better in 2015. According to the Chinese superstitious believe, the year of HORSE is not a good year for Malaysia. Will it be right?...Ah...Just forget about it. Today is already the last day of 2014. I am really praying for better in 2015.

2014 business is rather slow. Because of the changes (ups and downs) of the global economy. Malaysia economics changes a lot. It stirred up rather huge fears in spending.  Oh no, Malaysia lets move forward and not backwards. Culture need to change. May God bless Malaysia. Everyone, just don't be disappointed. I always believe there will be rainbow after storm.

I personally changed a lot this year (2014). Well, about me.......

As we know Jan is the beginning of the year. Spirits were up, everything seems to be so excited. Moreover is approaching to CNY and bonus month. Weehee!!Those were the recap of my life in 2014.

 Went to Sekinchan in January 2014. Sekinchan were introduced after a movie. Has been there for a few times. It was very likely "kampong" like. I love the peacefulness of the place. It will be fine if we were there once a while. If I were to live there, I think I will be bored.If you life are too hectic, perhaps could consider to leave the city and be there for a day or two.

 Was taken on the 21st Jan 2014. My colleagues a.k.a comrades celebrated my birthday at Folie-folie Ipoh. It was a half surprised celebration. I had a wonderful night with presents given by them each day. Love them all.I love my hair the most as 'it' was in control. Normal it was out of control.;-)

Wow...My actual birthday. My dearest treated me ABALONE. Can you imagine?..Abalone? I didn't like the abalone all this while but I love the broth. We had it at Ah Yat Abalone, Genting. It is rather expensive, not so worth to me. So blessed to be treated like a princess during my birthday. Can I be greedy to have them all the time?..Pls...

 CNY was in February. As usual I have a very typical kind of Chinese New Year. For so many years, celebrated CNY with my paternal side families. Cousins were back, aunts and uncles were around. For me I think CNY is much celebrated with families. Is not about the celebration, it will be the gathering.

 Chor 8, reunion dinner at home. So blessed to be part of it.

 

 Pictures were take from Bali. First trip of the year, 2014. Wonderful trip. 8-11 Feb 2014

March 2014. Went for the second trip in less than a month. See how God blessed me. I this bonding trip with mom.

Were taken in Vietnam. Wonderful trip round 2..hahaha...Had a wonderful trip with my dearest bestie and family. A every memorable one. I would hope dad and sai lo could join us next year. To Korea, Mom said. Mom, would you want to sponsor me instead?..ahahahaha..

April 2014.

 Dad's birthday present. Dad's birthday is in April. Every time when we asked him what do you want for your birthday?. He would always without hesitation say, I want watch. His dream was to have watch every year. Oh Dad ar dad, how many watches you want?. He had his stories why he loved watches so much.

 Loving baking, Mom always did baking. Is always depends on her mood. She had variety of hobbies. Mom, could you please find a hobby that you really love. Develop that liking of baking from mom a little.

Expressive Art Class in April. I always love painting although i horribly painted my art pieces. In expressive art, I have the freedom to draw/ express. I admitted that I love freedom.

Starting off

Today marks a very meaningful day for me in my 20++ years of life. It took my heavy spine of laziness away to have a new resolution to start up my own blog. I knew it will not be good at first to blog up in terms of the English grammar, the structure of the blog, those pictures that I am going to upload but I knew it will be better each day. Practice makes perfect. It wouldn't be perfect. Humans will never will.

I thought of writing blog when I was at my Uni. I have no courage to do so, not so because of my courage I would say is more about thinking of what to write. As I grew older, I began to have more feelings, thoughts and have higher urge in writing a blog. That is where I am, blogging.

It will be a new start. A new journey. I hope to write more about my "Life Gratitude".I hope to imply Gratitude in my life. Learn to be thankful for every bits of it.

I am very thankful for the encouragement that I had from my VIP for never declining in giving me support. This person is very important in my life. This person told me to start up and gave me the name. I hope I will not disappoint myself and this VIP of mine. Great journey starts with small steps. I am now taking it and withholding firmly.

Your support is pretty much helping me to move forward. 2014 is a long year. All years shaped me to be who I am today. Good and Bad, keep that as lessons and memories. I will promise to keep the passion and enthusiastic will to continue writing.

I took when I attended Photo Therapy Workshop. It was by the name of "Letting GO". I chose this because I want to let go and start up a new journey with my loved ones and the things that I love doing. My journey begins. Yeah! I had a little Mel's corner right here. Cheers to 2014.

Signing of with love,
