2015 Timeline

Dear everyone, as mentioned on my previous post, I decided to continue with my yearly Timeline tradition. 
You can check out my previous year's 2014 Timeline here.

So here goes nothing.

2015 Timeline

January 

I began my first moments of 2015 with my good poly classmates. It was quite an epic night which you can read in my previous timeline. Nevertheless, it was nice spending my new year with them.

2015 was mainly the year where I stopped updating my blog so frequently. I still am pretty bad at it now but I hope I'll get back at it this year. Because of my lack of updates, I can't exactly reference a lot of my memories to posts (cause they don't exist lol). Thus, I had to whip out my trusty iphone calendar to check out what happened to me last year.

January was the time when I was still adjusting to my 'after quitting school' phase. So I didn't know what I was doing but more like just going with the flow of everything and ending some contracts I had such as my gym membership as well as my hostel. It seems like I didn't do anything much. Because 2014 stressed me out like crazy, I broke out so much. I believe I did mention about my horrible breakouts along the way when I updated. In January, I was mostly mending my scars. I did have some literal scars. Thankfully most of my scars have cleared now.

But I would definitely say my highlight for that month was being able to hang out with my roommates. I had a sleepover in Camelia's NTU Hall with Jing Wen and we watched movies like how we used to. Just like the old times :')

 This was during our NTU Hall sleepover. I love how we're always so goofy ^^
 My final night sleeping in Yoha. :(
 My roommates whom stayed up with me to talk to me on my last night. aww :') Jennifer was rather new though but she's just too adorable.
& the final day arrived. It was a great 6 months. Even though things didn't work out as planned but I left with some meaningful friendships along the way.


February

Basically nothing much happened that month. I had my last Kickboxing class by my favourite instructor. I've been to a lot of cardio classes but till now, his classes were still the best! 

I miss that gym which has now closed down. I loved the classes, they fit me perfectly. The timings were all great and I loved the flexible system. Granted, it may not have had the most state of the art facilities, but I liked it.

Oh that month was also the month, me and Syahirah decided that I'll be going to Iceland! So I had to save up my money and I got a job interview as a Finance Officer in a government based company. I worked there for like 2.5 months before I left for my trip. 


March

March was a really interesting month for me as I got my first office job ever. I got my own desk and wore formal everyday (eventhough I didn't really had to cause I was just a temp staff). I leant a lot of new things and a bunch of new friends with my colleagues. I was also working my ass off everyday. Well not really that hard but in a sense where I was volunteering to OT at least a few times a week in the office and also working on one weekend at my other job in USS.

So I was really busy and really tired with at least 50 hours of work every week but I did it somehow! I think it was partly cause of my diet and my exercise routine. As I was saving money, I mostly brought salad from home and drank lots of green tea and coffee. & I also made it a point to workout and de-stress with some yoga on the weekends. I would go for some Bikram or gentle yoga classes before heading to work on the weekends. 

& since I did not update at all about my social life during that period, I'll share some pictures I took during that month.
 I was on the roll with trying new yoga places ever since I found out there were free classes!
 And then I dragged my mum as well. hahaha
 My weekend responsibilities looking after Donkey.
 My daily OOTDs my mum always took. aww :')
 Daily occurrence: Selfies with my coffee  
  

April

My highlights for April was going for a trip to Redang, Malaysia! I loved that place. So beautiful and I enjoyed every moment swimming and being under the sun. I apparently did not update that as well. It seems like I forgot to update a lot of trips. *writing down a bunch of trip updates to do*

As soon as I update that I'll include the link here.

I truly enjoyed myself and was basically channeling my inner yogi throughout that trip.



May

It was the month where I left Vital (The finance company I worked with). It was a great 2.5 months & my team treated me too well. 

I never mentioned this before but I did my very first eyebrow embroidery. It may sound really petty but I did it mainly for my Iceland trip cause I forsee a lot of no makeup days & I was right lol. These were some pictures I took in the office a few days after the embroidery.

I did it in a rather unprofessional place but I don't regret it. Now, 1 year later, my embroidery have faded a lot. But I like it this way now cause it looks more natural now. The images below I did not fill in my brows at all. In fact it was too dark that I had clean a little off with some concealer and a little powder over it. & I started having bangs to cover it lol.

 awww memories. I can't believe it was just last year. I kinda miss working with them. They're quite chill.
The ones that were always there for me ;')

June

It was the month where I turned 22.  I also went to Pulau Ubin after yearsss. Like 10? So it was really nice seeing how the place hardly really changed much. And since I left Vital, I had no job & I needed income for my upcoming Iceland trip. Thus, I was working on most days.

:')
aww I look so happy ;')

July 

Oh this was hands down the BEST month out of 2015!

I went to Iceland!

For this I do actually have some links for yall to check out! Or alternatively, you can click under 'myTravels' category on the left.

Click : x x x x x x

Iceland was quite an epic adventure.  I have yet to edit the entire Iceland video but...I'll get to it as soon as I'm updating with all my long overdued posts!





August

I was having the post Iceland withdrawal symptoms and basically still recovering from everything like Jetlag and my skin was breaking out so bad. So I was taking care of my skin for the most part.

For that month, I went for our annual chalet with my Shrekiess! & got to meet the entire family for an open house my aunt had.



September

This month, I had a lot of interesting things going on.

We went on a Yatch!! & kinda drove it a little. It was a really cool experience & we got a pretty cool instructor as well with whom we still kept in contact with till now. (If you consider following one another on instagram....)

 These were the two other people we took the yatch with.
 Back there is our instructor.
 After our yatching session, we met up with my roommates! And Syahirah's first time meeting them. It was quite an epid dance session lolol. 2 hours was prolly too long.
 Work was alright, but that was the month that we got this Squad photo lol.
& I got my job in SPH!


October

It was the month when my Snapchat was born. hahaha. Thanks to the influence of the other staff in SPH. & also to tons of selfies in the office and avoiding responsibilities. 

I went for my 4th Halloween Horror Nights in USS. & speaking of work, it was my 3 year anniversary of working there. daymm, am I considered an old timer now? This year will be my 4th year. 
oh & Fara was born.
& must have car selfiessss. I probably have wayyy too much selfies of myself during that month.
 Basically how Siti thinks of me when I snapchat. She be like 'Stop embarrassing yourself'.


November

I had my very first Deepavali in the office! It was quite interesting to see how festive the office people are when it comes to celebrations.

& I also went to Langkawi in which I did talk about here.



December

A couple of highlights for that month. I cut my hair prettyyy shortt! & I think it's the shortest I've ever had. It looked weird for awhile cause I didn't know how to style it. So I compensated it with slightly more makeup than usual but then again I was going through the Kylie lip phase as well. So yeah that's that.

I also got pretty tight with the rest of them Temp Staff kidzz. & Siti left us that month as well.

I had my very first Christmas celebration in the office. It was so nice to see everyone in red. I received a lot of goodies, even though I gave none lol oops.

I celebrated my final moments of 2015 and my first few moments with my parents in Bintan.
I talked about it in my previous post! So go check it out here.


 
 & then I found my hairstyle.
 Our farewell dinner for Siti
Ma BIMBZZ + 1 (Sidney lol) 


And omg, I did it, after 2 months of procrastinating.

& remember my yearly resolutions?

Yazz I'm gonna do it again this time round. Sooo last year's resolution was as follows, let's see what I've accomplished.

My 2015 Resolution:
  • Headstand without the help of the walls (I'm almost there nowww)
  • Travel alone or with my best friend
  • Find Happiness 
  • Find a goal or meaning in my life
Did it happen?

  •  ummm well, I did do a headstand without the walls on the beach in which I have proof & you can see under my April section when I went to Redang. HAH AMEK KAU.
  • I DIDDD & I WENT TO ICELAND! Well I may have cheated a little cause when I was typing those resolutions, we kinda were already planning it...so yeahh. hahaha
  • Happiness. Hmm that's kinda hard to say right now. I have had my ups and downs and I did have some certain degree of happiness but it's not the happiness that I meant when I typed that. I was happy but not as much as I wanted to be. I feel like this sort of happiness has to be some sort of accomplishment of something that I worked really hard in. I am still not sure what kind of happiness exactly but I feel like there's something more for me out there.
  • I think I may have found it. I enrolled in school again. & this time, I'm doing it for myself and I'm funding myself financially in which I chose to. & for once it feels right. My plans for the future may vary but for now, I like the idea that I'm learning and harnessing skills that I've been toying for quite awhile. I have a better perspective in life. It's not about how fast I end school, we often forget, it's actually about the journey and how it has moulded you to be you now.
Well that escalated quickly from quirky to deep lol. Excuse me and my moments.

Now, it's time for my 2016 resolutions! It's never too late right?

My 2016 Resolutions:
  • Get back into my Yoga grind and be stronger. The Mak Cik in SPH fed me too well, I gained 5 kg throughout my 5 months there. T.T
  • Cause I still have not found my true Happiness, soo let's try to find Happiness this year.
  • Decluttering my things
  • Minimalistic living - To live with as few items as possible.
  • Relax more
Sooo those are my resolutions for this year.

I feel like I needed to focus and work on myself more. & relax more. I've been having difficulties relaxing lately. Especially when I sleep. I know cause I always wake up with stiff jaw joints. Every morning, the first thing I think of is, "Does it hurt?". It usually does & I'll be like "damn". That's something I've been trying to work on and I've been tackling it by going for yoga classes more often. It is a work in progress and I'm sure I'll get through it.

All in all, I would say that 2015 was quite an eventful year. I actually made a lot of new friends. From my temp jobs and also the new crews that joined uss. All the experiences and opportunities that I've gain, I am so thankful for. I started out weak, but I came out stronger. 

May this year be an even better year than the last!

I know a little too late but... Happy New Year!
