In Review: 2013

Before I begin, let me just set the mood heh. 

Music! *snaps fingers*


September by Daughtry. I feel this song has been my anthem for these last few months of 2013. I find myself singing it at completely random times, well, all the time. & then I get teary yayyy.

Anyways, 2013. An eventful, life-changing year. Overall 2013 was good, filled with much laughter, joy and memories that will last a lifetime. 

2013; It was a year...

1. Of PM13;


of camwhoring, what we do best. If I were to compile all our camwhore pictures from '13, this post will never end.

of having Ms Chuk as our Chem lecturer. All the stupid things we did in her class :'D


of our class photoshoot. Our picture was no doubt, the best! :D we were the only ones who went outside uni to take our picture. Walked in the scorching hot sun (which I now miss) :D

of our varsity jackets on the last day of CAL! 

of steamboat at Pammy's & farewells :'( I miss PM13! 

Being a part of PM13 was the best part of my college life. I've never met more warm, friendly classmates in my entire life. We started off wanting to be united, and in the end, we were recognised as a united class even amongst other Taylor-ians. #1201PM13, forever in our hearts :')


2. Of car rides and traffic jams and stupidity;


That 'Call Me Maybe' sign :'D 


 I miss our car rides :(


3. Of CF;

The people I truly respect & adore, who make Fridays something to look forward to :')

Journey to Freedom screening by Change Your World. Gabriel will never let me forget how I snapped at him hahaha omgosh. 

CF Camp. 3 amazing days with amazing people, encountering God. Go team Seiko! :D 

CF committee '12 farewell dindin at Italiannies

Joining CF was one of the best decisions I've ever made in my life. It's helped me grow and learn so much. I've met amazing people who've inspired me to do better, to be better. The people I've  met in CF, the memories I've made, they're unforgettable.


4. Of Pelik;


To the best (and weirdest) fish in the whole wide world, I miss your company!


4. Of the Mafia Gang;


After-college lepak seshs ;)

Mamak seshs.

Pool

The Impossible with the guys, shopping with Shman & Sehran, Leek's bday surprise & haircut with Lynn & Voe :D

Shman's surprise, Raya at Jannah's and CNY at mine :)

Late night house visits! :D 



And of course, our Malacca trip. First ever trip outstation, and hopefully the first of many! :D 

I've made so many dedications to the mafias already, that another one is absolutely unnecessary. These people are my 2nd family, and I love them to bits. That is all.


5. Of Taekwondo;


So glad I invited Shman & Voe to join Prosport :')


6. Of Narrowstreet and WIFI-JC


Volunteering at Generasi Gemilang!

My poop family :')

Narrowstreet, where I've grown. 


7. Of spontaneous trips and silly pictures with Shman;


Ice cream while driving? Of course ;)

Temaning Shman for haircuts & more ice cream! :D

I miss how Shman would just call & we'll be on our way somewhere within minutes. Anywhere, everywhere.


8. Of the most ridiculous, idiotic pictures;



Lynn's face swap app. 


9. Of prom; 

PM13 dominating that game, playgirl pictures :)




One of the most beautiful nights of my life so far.


10. Of a dream come true;

My offer letter.

I can still remember the feeling of getting the offers, and getting accepted. That high, that exhilaration. 


11. Of affirmations and an answered prayer;



12. Of being in a youtube video! 


Filming was insane, but it was an amazing experience. It was hilarious, actually. We couldn't stop laughing the whole while :'D


13. Of graduating;



14. Of goodbyes;

To Azelia, who left for Aussie,

To my home of 12 years,

To Hao Yen,

To Sarah,

To KFung,

To Leek,

To my Taekwondo kiddies, some of which I've known for years already, and watched grow,

To WIFI-JC,

 To mafias,

And to family.

Last few moments in the airport. I still remember going down the escalator trying to just postpone 'goodbye' for a little longer.

Yes, 2013 was indeed a year of goodbyes. Even looking at the pictures now I feel upset :'(


15. Of new beginnings;

Off to Leicester!

A new city.

A new home.


16. Of new friends;

Lucy (she deserves a photoset of her own!) :)

Leicester Malaysians! What would I do without these people :')

I've met so many amazing people here in Leicester, and I've made many friends whom I'd cherish for life. These people, they've made Leicester a not-so-lonely place for me, and I'm so thankful for all of them.


17. Of new experiences;

Shabang.

NMG '13. The joy of seeing people I love again :'D

Getting our first house together! :)
