2015 is over?

It is the last day of 2015! Crazy how time flies, in a glance 2015 is over. Have you accomplished whatever you set out in the beginning of 2015? It has been a good year for me I would say. Managed to do and accomplish quite a few things. So now I shall list them as I sit down and reflect my 2015:

1. Era's Wedding - One of my best friends got married and it was such a wonderful wedding, both here and in Labuan. Most chilled wedding I have ever been to. A wedding with the closest of friends and family and definitely a milestone for my darling friend.

2. Chinese New Year  - Melbourne! First time celebrating CNY out of Malaysia and it was definitely different. We didn't have houses to visit but we had family. Since we didn't have anyone to visit, we did a road trip on the Great Ocean Road. My best friend from home, Hsei Di came along to and we had so much fun - BBQ, Beach and Koalas!

3. Russell Peters 'Almost Famous' Live - A couple of friends and I managed to catch Russell Peters live in KL and it was AWESOME! Seeing one of you favourite comedians live is definitely one thing to remember. He is funny and cracks you up

4. Backstreet Boys Concert - Thanks to my brother who managed to get tickets for us for our childhood dreams to come true! My girls and I sang to our hearts content and screamed like we never screamed before. 

5. Diving License - I quite my job of 3 and half years and took a 2 weeks break back to Labuan. While I was there, I managed to get my diving license which I have been wanting to do for a long long time. Initially, I thought I had a fear of the dark waters, but after being in the water, I loved it! I look forward to start diving next year!

6. Robi is Born! - Another bestie of mine gave birth to cute baby boy! So happy that I am an aunt again!

7. Races - I did 7 this year, one got cancelled due to the haze. I never thought I would be a race junkie, here I am already did 7 and have already signed up for 2 next year. I know that this is something I love doing although I still hate the washing up after.

       

8. I am a TEACHER -  Like I said, I quite my job! I am now a teacher in an international school teaching 5-6 year olds (Year 1). It is definitely a new challenge as I have not formally taught before. There are a lot to learn and thankfully I have colleagues that are nice and helpful, which makes working a lot less stressful. One of the perks of being a teacher is the school holidays! Who doesn't love holidays?

9. NEW CAR! - I bought a car! My most expensive purchase so far! A cute little Myvi which I can call my own. I have been driving it around for a month and so far so good! Feel more grown up now with so called the 'commitment'

10. The BIG 3-0! - I turned 30 this year and boy I feel old! Hahaha.. I usually don't think much into my birthday but this year, I felt a little down. Somehow I felt a little under-achieved when I compare my life with others. Sometimes it is hard not to compare and to feel like your life is nothing compared to others who have successful career, fantastic job, married or even a happy family! But fret not, it was a passing moment and I am definitely grateful with the life I have been blessed with and continue to strive for a better and happier one!

This are some of the highlights of 2015. Of course there are so many other highlights from 2015 that I treasure (like picking up painting, colouring) but I am getting tired of typing. If you follow me on Instagram or Facebook, I am sure that you have seen what I have gone through the past year. I believe 2016 is going to be greater! I already have a few plans in mind! So watch this space or Facebook to be posted!

To all of you reading this, Have a wonderful 2016, party safe and BE AWESOME! <3>

Petrol....

I might be a little behind the news but i heard a few days ago about the increase of petrol prices in Malaysia, which gone up to RM 2.70 per liter!!!!

CRAZY.........I guess people will now start riding their bikes!!! Time to take it out of the closet!!

I still remember when i was young and my dad used to take us out for "round-round" around town in the evenings after dinner just for a drive in the car. But now being that the petrol is so expensive, i doubt parents would do that anymore....

When I pass my driving test and got my licence, my friends and I would go for drives, yamcha and just to hang out. Now, with expensive petrol prices, I doubt that we'll be so willing to drive out as much as we used to...

People in the city drive here and there and everywhere. And with the not-very-efficient public transport, people will not be able to afford to go anywhere anymore..........

How la like that?

Best way to sum up Munira Bahari

"If we need more proof that our education system is producing intellectual
midgets, this is it."

Marina Mahathir

"Perhaps somebody should go and check what kind of stuff is being taught at
this young lady's school and what kind of creatures populate the National
Islamic Students Association of Malaysia."

Patrick Teoh

The more I read about it...The angrier I get!

After reading so many blogs about this Ms Munira girl...it really pisses me off!!!!

She says wearing white blouse (ie the school uniform), will attract unwanted attention, causing rape and such!!!

I tell you, if i see her in person..i would really knock her in the head with my chemistry book!!! I know everyone else would!!

One thing i dont understand is why, she as a women herself would wanna suggest something that would restrict women? why can we do something to the guys instead? why blame the girls?? why can we just dig out the guys eyes? or just castrate the guys? I know its mean, but i just dont get it!!!

Isnt it that the guys are the one who rape not the girls...why punish the girls by telling them that white would attract guys?

Munira, if you cant prove that wearing other colours instead of white will protect you 100% from rape...... SHUT UP!

Go read The Star, Marina Mahathir's Blog, Patrick Teoh's Blog, or even go look at Munira's Blog!

I tell you, after reading all those, you'd definitely think that Munira is proper THICK for suggesting such things!!!
