Recap and 2014~



Before the year ends......
Woah....2014. Where did the time go?
It seems a bit odd that it's not New Years here yet but New Years has passed 3 hours ago back in Malaysia and it's 2014 there but 2013 here.  
I'm CONFUSED!                     *Not really*

So here goes the long post of 2013 recap =) Enjoy~   Or don't

January~
Don't really remember much of what happened. Highlight of the month was getting my drivers licence! Yea and basically just watching time go by. Chilling and working out!

February~
Dong Dong Qiang! Gong Hei Fat Choy! Celebrated Chinese New Years back in le mums home town Tawau! Got the red packets but most importantly seeing my lovely grandma and my cute baby cousins plus the grown up cousins! Great food, got sick from eating too much. (No surprise there)
Started work somewhere at the end of Feb at a dessert shop ZenQ- First ever job.


Eve's Night!
The gals dressed up in their pretty dresses and the lads had to cook, prepare and serve the gals as well as entertain us for the night. It was the first ever event of such that the Youths had and it was a great success =)
Secretly I think the lads turned into real men!


March-May
Did some hardcore work out and healthy diet to lose weight. Continued with my job. Went to Hong Kong with my mum! Which was quite a good break from the usual routine back home.
I blogged about my trip! Check it out =)

June~
Worked on a project of shooting and editing a short film with the GCE Reloaded youths for the annual Youth Sunday! It was a great experience of going into the realm of the unknown literally not knowing how to edit videos but taking it step by step. All glory to God!

July~
Cowboy's Night! The gals turn to serve the lads
Thank God for determined hard working girls otherwise we wouldn't have been able to pull this off! With more guys ratios from girls. Overall it's fair to say. We did a pretty dang good job!

October -December~
Exploring life as a uni student. Making new friends. Experiencing ups and downs
Was visited by Ernesha, Michelle, Han Jun, Tanya and Kevin(my KK loves)
Travelled to Swindon to visit my cousins and family! Which was a great 1 week or so...
Had the best cooked Japanese fusion food by Maya.
Ate till I got sick. *Literally* No fun there.
Missed out my London trip with the other Malaysian Homies. Returned to Leeds!

Spent New Years Eve playing frisbee!
And now 4 hours to New Years 2014. All in all 2013 was a pretty dang good year! One of the best years I've had in this 19 years of living.

Well that was long~ If you've read till this part.
Pat yourself on your back. I sincerely thank you from the deepest part of my heart somewhere in the atrium. If I remembered my Bio correctly.

As for 2014
I've only got 1 main goal and that is to live my days to the fullest. To break this down.
I want to live each day without complaining, without having the thought of ungratefulness. Easier said than done. but, ultimately. I want to live knowing that each choice and decisions and actions I make, it is to glorify God. I want to live 2014 by giving more, sharing and loving. Taking every opportunity I have and making something greater out of it.
Because that's really what matters in life. Living a meaningful life instead of just going through each day with no sense of direction.
No use of a list of resolution. Because plans always fail.  But when I have my eyes set on God and who I am in Him. Everything will follow after and slowly be in place. Of course set backs and detours will occur but in time. Joy and fulfilment is sufficient.

So here's to 2014! To my wonderful family, friends back home, friends down undah and friends in the UK! God bless and Happy New Year!
