2009

Before the clock strikes 12.00 tonight, before 2010 decides to show its face with all those glamorous fireworks, I would like to do a post on what I've learnt/achieved in 2009. This year has been a wonderful and fruitful year, but it definitely hasn't been an easy one. I was terribly homesick throughout semester 1 which results in me being a very grumpy and edgy girlfriend. I figured out that was mostly due to the subjects I was doing back then. I didn't like the content very much and I didn't like some of my lecturers either. I also hated the monotonous, repetitive life that I was having back then. Semester 2 went through with a zoom. It was like a blink of eye and it was gone.

This year,
1. I have realised that I'm already half way through my course. 2 more years and I'll be out in the real world, working full time. Urgh.
2. Having Bailey as my pet, and of course a part of the family is probably the best thing that happened to me in 2009. He's such a loving pet and I love him to bits.


3. Our relationship (Manning and I) definitely have not been easy but if it wasn't for all those hard times we have been through together, we would not be where we are right now. So I'm grateful for all those good things that happened to us, and I'm also thankful for all those good things that we got out from the bad things.


4. I started working part time and only now that I understand earning money isn't something that will eventually happen as you grow older. You have to get your ass out there and behind every cent there's hard sweat.
5. I learnt that friendship doesn't just exist because it does. It takes effort and time to maintain a friendship. I also learnt that it takes both (or more) parties to keep that special bond you share. If you're the only fighting for it, you'll eventually have to learn to give up and let go.

So, in 2009, I might not have been a perfect daughter, or a caring sister, or an understanding girlfriend, or a thoughtful friend, but lets just put that all behind now and look forward to the new year. Thank you to all those who have stood by me and made this year a wonderful one for me. And for those who havn't, well what doesn't kill me will only make me stronger :)

Here's a toast to a marvelous 2010.
Happy New Year!

Latest Addiction

Nate Archibald, Chuck Bass, Dan Humphrey mmmm.. even Rufus Humphrey looks good lol.. and those pretty classy dresses and heels to die for.. mmmm

One more week till home! No work and all play with good food! Can't wait! I'm gonna miss Bailey soooo much though.. If only I could pack him into my luggage :(

First part time job!

maccas cap with hair tied into a bun..
not wearing my work shirt here

For those who still have no idea what I've been rambling about on twitter, I started working as a front counter chick at maccas. So, call me maccas girl everyone -.- No, don't seriously.
It's only been a week so I'm still pretty confused/slow about certain things but let's just hope things get better soon. First job in my life (not counting the 6 hours of work trial I did at a pharmacy), first paycheck, I feel so proud! I can't wait till I get my first payslip. Credit into my account instead of the usual debit!

more about this soon because it's drama time for me and my legs are dead!

have a great weekend!

What's wrong, darling?

hahaha look at bailey's face.. he looked so upset
but i find it too cute and adorable, so i couldn't resist to not post it up!
i ♥ you
be happy and i'll give you treats!
