Looking Back: 2014

It's kinda funny when I look back on all my previous New Year posts. I'd list things that I would do throughout the year, and then live another 12 months to realise that I failed miserably again and again. So yeah, well, no more resolutions this time.

2014 was one of its kind, a simple and uneventful one. It wasn't phenomenal or fun-filled; but it wasn't all dark and depressing either. It came all too fast, and now it's gone in a blink. A few things to remember and to be thankful for:

1307 G13 - Peepul



I have honestly never been in a class with people who are so different from each other, and I slowly came to appreciate how even though we're different, we stuck together from the beginning to the end. That alone, is amazing. Put the oddest bunch of kids together for a year and a half, I promise you'll be surprised.

Also not to mention, Langkawi Class Trip!!!


CAL Prom Night: Regalias


My first prom ever! Spent a bomb but it was all worth it. It was fun just preparing for it, and there we all were, dressed in our best. I guess everyone looked great that night. The best part was it got better, because the next day just happened to be...

My Birthday!

Hands down, the best birthday I've had. Thanks to everyone who made it so special and memorable, words can't express how much it all means to me. I'm missing you guys right now :)

A-Levels


If there is one word to describe A Levels, it's hellish. I swear have never studied as much as I did in my entire life as I did for just A Levels. But one thing was clear: It changed me. And I'm very satisfied with the outcome. It was a great pleasure studying away from home, in an unfamiliar place; I regret nothing.

Friends To Keep

Moving on, some great people who made the year worthwhile.






Saving the best for last...

My One & Only ♥


2014 would be nothing without you. To the best boyfriend I could ever ask for, who listens to me when I whine over the same problems, who knows all the right things to say to make my day, who is ever so patient with me, and who loves me for the way I am even though I can be difficult at times - I love you so much. Thank you for always being there when I need you, and for making the happiest girl alive. To many more years to come, baby <3

Well that was long, I guess that sums up what I wanted to say. Thank you for everything, 2014, Happy New Year everyone! 

P.S. And also let's not forget the fact that I'm finally 20! Such a nice number, no?

Yayasan Khazanah: First & Second Stage

Undeniably, scholarships and I tend to have rather... complicated relationships. The first one I applied for (and a quite prestigious one for heaven's sake) didn't qualify because reckless little me missed out one of the application procedures. I'm still beating myself up for that. And then there was Taylor's Principal Awards where I was awarded with 10 thousand MYR worth of tuition wee waiver for selected Pre-University Courses. Considering my current financial abilities, I turned it down because as honoured as I am to be holding a TPA, the remaining uncovered fees (not to mention living costs) were still far from what my family could afford. I didn't get the PETRONAS scholarship, neither did I make it to the 3rd stage of Yayasan Khazanah (YK). I say, failures are a sign of you're getting closer to what you want, so let's rejoice.  Back to where I started, I was about to write about what I've learned during the interview processes of YK - Stag...

Of heartbreaks and the unknown

Moon's high, light's low. I'm sitting in my bed and thinking. About things. I've been doing a lot of sitting and thinking lately. Almost all the time my mind wanders off into space, and my heart starts sinking deeper and deeper into a void. This void, this blackness of a cavern. Funny enough, I know what it is and where it came from.  I ask myself the same question everyday, over and over, until it hurts to even mentally mouth the words: Why am I here in this messed up world? What have I done (or not done) to be forced to internalise so much pain and injustice? How can people live as though they belong when they've done so many others wrong? And most importantly, am I overthinking this yet again?  There was a point in time where I had so much hope in me my eyes gleamed. My blood burned bright red and my veins lit up like fireworks. Every single day, I felt like an infinite surge of electricity was coursing through me and that anything that I touched woul...
