It was a mixture of weirdness and nostalgic when one looks and reads back about oneself. However, since I am hardly the type to write diaries despite numerals attempts so the next best thing is by looking through photos. Can't help but laugh or cry over some past memories that if weren't for the photos, they would have just stay forgotten at the back of my mind.

I was 17 years old and so happy when it is Raya since my maternal side of the family tend to have a Raya buffet and I could literally eat all the food I want. I usually made a beeline towards the dessert table (still do) and my mom would pester me to eat some 'proper' food first. I don't know about you but proper food to me is desserts, desserts, desserts!
Ignore the date imprinted on the photo, it is wrong since the camera has been reset or some explanation like that. So this is my senior prom at Grand Millennium after SPM and my first time ever dressing up with professionally done make-up. It was awesome.
early 2008I ushered in the new year with a brand new haircut since I was feeling the itch to change my look. Nothing too radical though coz my mom was paying and she didn't approve me dying my hair blue or whatever. Sadly, can't see my brown highlights in this grainy photo.
feb-march 2008?Well, I felt the need to put this photo here coz this was taken during my first real job. I had to beg my mom to allow me to work on the account of my boredom with nothing to do while waiting for the July intake of Lim Kok Wing. I ended up staying on the job for one and a half years and not attending LKW since of some horror incident involving my dad's friend's kid and stories I've heard from LKW-ers.
late 2008My friend called me literally half an hour before asking if I wanted to come along on a trip to Pangkor with a bunch of her friends for a couple of days. Probably one of the most spontaneous thing I've done in my entire life and I'll do it again if money+time+transportation+bf's approval aren't an issue.

early 2009This was taken at Luna Bar and some time after my frequent clubbing phrase. I love dancing but I hate the smell of cigarette smoke in my hair, random strangers trying to fill me up (this is experienced by every girls) plus having to wake up the next morning exhausted yet having to endure a full 8 hours of tiring customer service is a little too much for me.

My second job was at Pavillion and my induction to the world of luxury brands. I've read Vogue and all that but feeling and seeing the clothes face to face is a totally different experience. Anyway, I worked there for a little over half a year before quitting to await my intake to my current college.
early 2010
One of my favourite photos taken with my
bestie and that is why I can't resist but stuck it up here. We are hardly the type of sms or phone each other every single day; in fact we see each other every one,two months but it always lots of fun when we do meet up ;D

(present)I still can't believe I've already hit the big Two-O. It is funny when I compare how life was to how life is at present. It is like nothing I've ever anticipated. Literally everything and everyone changed. Even who I am as a person changed. But no, I refuse to go all snappy about how life is beautiful because it is unpredictable etc etc etc. Watch Forrest Gump or Yes Man for that warm fuzzy feeling.
I wonder how my life would be at twenty five or hell, even thirty.
But enough about me. What about you? ;P
