Au Revoir, 2011

It's hard to believe that today is the last day of 2011, cliche but true. I have to agree when a friend of mine tweeted that "2011 was... quick". I've never changed my mind eversince I told myself that this is the toughest year I've ever had. Tough but fun :)

Too many things happened from the beginning of the year until today, the end of it. There is no doubt that I've become more independent and stronger this year and I'm thankful for that. I may not remember everything but I made it through, all by myself or with the help from my loved ones.

January
1. Started school as a form five student, senior year eh?
2. Fell sick a lot of times.
3. Thought about quitting from becoming a prefect but I did my task, completely.
4. Emotionally unstable for the first few weeks.
5. Started going to tuitions every night except on the weekends.

February (month of Bieber)
1. Found out that Justin Bieber's gonna be here for a concert due to his world tour.
2. Went crazy about it with my Beliebers friends.
3. Received a parcel filled with a ticket for his concert a few weeks before the big day from a friend of mine, I was over the moon.
4. Listened to the entire album every night while I was studying, so much for getting ready for the concert hahaha

March (another month of Bieber)
1. Sat for the monthly test.
2. Went to a concert for the first time and it's Bieber's ok? Just imagine it, first concert = Bieber's = cool kan? Fine, you don't get it.. Anyway, it was definitely one of the best nights I've ever had.
3. What else happened eh? Can't recall :s

April
1. Joined the school's netball team at the very last minute and went for the competition. I'm pretty sure I did it for fun. (not sure if this was in April or May but nevermind)
2. Still fooling around with my studies.

May-June
1. Exams, tuitions, extra classes.
2. Realised that I really need to start studying.
3. Sat for the ICAS and had to wait for months for the result.

I'm starting to forget everything that happened.. But I'll just do what I remember ok?

July

2. Extremely busy with Sports Day.

4. Went to school at night with some friends for the last minute preparation for the next day (Sports Day)
5. Became Princess Fiona for the marching thing and Meade won the best marching something like that :D
6. Best Sports Day ever, I must say. Yela ada Shrek, Harry Potter, kesultanan Melayu, Jepun, pirates on the same field ok? Mmm good times :)
7. Flew off to Gold Coast for the students exchange programme. Had lots of fun but a week wasn't enough :(

August
1. Busy with trials.
2. I was quite disappointed with my trials because I know I could've done better but oh well, what's done is done.
3. A month of fasting eh?
4. Nothing much happened, I think.

4. Done with SPM and done with school.

December
1. Lifeless hahaha
2. In the process of getting my driving license.
3. Thinking of getting a job but I didn't even look for one.
4. Went to Pangkor, looked after Aiman, the 10 y/o kid. (I still don't like kids after spending four days with him)
5. Lost a friend, or two. I don't know.
6. Lifeless.. hahaha don't worry, I'll get a life next year, you'll see.

And that is all I think? I feel bad for not being able to recall everything but I've had a great year. Tough but fun. I'm looking forward to next year which is tomorrow. No no there's no such thing as new year, new me but I'm just hoping that I'll be a better person than I am right now.

Thank you for all of the meaningful and memorable experiences and memories, 2011. You've definitely made me stronger and wiser.
I bid you farewell 2011 and I welcome you 2012 :)

Take Me To Infinity

Hi bloggers and readers! Not sure if I still have any though.. Anyway, I'd like to announce something here so here goes nothing. As you've expected, I'm done with SPM! I'm beyond grateful for that. I've done my best in every subject and paper, I tried and did everything I could to change my future and all I can say is I'll accept whatever the outcome is because I know it was the best of the best that I've ever done in my entire life.

Yesterday was the last day I sat for the toughest examination I've ever sat for. I won't lie, it wasn't that easy or should I say it wasn't easy at all? Everything was difficult no matter how hard you've prepared yourself. Yesterday was the last day I wore my school uniform and truth to be told, I was slightly emotional to put them on and took them off. Yesterday was my last day as a student and one of the most crucial phases in my life finally came to an end yesterday. It's hard to believe this but oh well, life goes on :)

Hello seventeen.

Nothing's Gonna Change

Look at the date, it's the last day for me to be a sixteen year old girl. A new phase starts tomorrow and I'm a step closer in becoming a young adult. Seventeen, that sounds so.. old? Haha but life goes on, you get older year by year so there's nothing we can do about it. That's just how life rolls.

There's no doubt that I've had lots of ups and downs, bumpy rides and things related to them. Too many, you know when they say the older you get the more you learn about life? Yeah it's true but they've made me stronger. I've learnt that I have to guard my heart from being damaged by those who don't even deserve to be in my life, I've learnt that no one can be trusted except for yourself and ladidadida you name it.

All I'm hoping is life gets better as soon as I turn seventeen, no more heartbreaks (which I'm pretty sure there'll be more cause hello, I'm only seventeen not seventy), be more matured, confident, smarter, wiser, younger and prettier! Haha ok cross out the last part but a girl can always dream so yeah, I'd love to have that one.

This is the part people usually say "I'm not hoping for you to do anything", "I won't be expecting anything from you" bla bla bla stop lying to yourself, we all know how much we're expecting for something to happen on our big day. I've always wanted a surprise birthday party but I've never had one so this is an opportunity for those who don't know what to do on my birthday, go create a plan and make my day tomorrow! :p

Have I told you I've celebrated my birthday together with The Zain's? It turned out to be a family celebration during an open house last night. It was really fun when you get to celebrate three birthdays and an anniversary at the same time. I've been receiving birthday wishes since last night and I'll be getting free calls from Hotlink for the whole day tomorrow! Do let me know if any of you wants to talk to me and I'll give you a ring :p

I guess that's it, I hope tomorrow's gonna be a good day for me. A birthday I'll never forget but no, don't get your hopes up high. Oh and you September, you've been doing great, so keep it that way :)

Far From The Usual

 

I won't lie and I can't deny the fact that I miss blogging. It's not like I've stopped wanting to blog but I'm just too lazy to update it. I read good blogs, every single time I connect myself to the internet but I've stopped updating mine. Enough with the intro. Since today is just another typical boring Sunday, I'll blog!

Maybe it's a little bit too late to say this but I'm done with my trials a few days ago. I can hardly believe I did it. I'm done with school examinations and trials so it means SPM is just around the corner. How many days left till the big day? Less than eighty days. Trials questions are known as difficult, they don't ask what they want straight away. I've heard people saying that if you could succeed in trials, there's no doubt that you'll achieve the real exam in flying colours.

A good thing about trials is you'll know where you stand and you'll realise there's a lot of things that you don't know. That's a good wake up call for me. I've realised that I haven't been putting a continuous effort on my studies, yet I still want to get a good result. Everyone wants it and does the same thing. We want to get something that we want but we're just too lazy to work things out to achieve it so what I'm hoping is I'll get back on track right after Eid. It's now or never.

One day left for Ramadhan and we'll celebrate Eid the next day. I'm looking forward for Eid since it happens to fall on my favourite month of the year, September! I was born this month and it'll be my first time that I'll get to celebrate my birthday during Eid. It's been a few years my birthday falls on a fasting month so I'm happy to know there's a difference this year. I shall remind you it'll be on the fourth day of September, on Sunday. Ok did I just sound desperate or what haha but don't forget it!

I guess that's it. Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri everyone, have a safe journey to wherever you're heading to. Eat all you can, be with your loved ones and enjoy this festive month :)
