This is the new year.

I know I'm late but, happy 2013! :)

Yes, so last year (it still feels weird thinking of 2012 as 'last year') was a great year, all in all I really would go back if I ever had a time machine. I've met so many new people, new friends, developed new relationships. I've learnt to open up more and not be the introvert I used to be. I realized how really really liking someone felt. I learnt that I could actually find happiness in the smallest of things, and I learnt that we have hope, through Christ. 

Well remember my holiday to-do list? I will blog about that soon, I HAVE A LOT TO SAY WOOTS. 

One of my to-do things was to redesign my room, I got a new shelf, re-did my wall, painted my guitar case (I HAVE A GUITAR OH YEAH) , not much but good enough for me to be happy with my room I guess. Excuse the poor quality for the photos.

Voila, my room. 



I did this Tumblr wall thingy. 


This one is kind of like a international shelf. Haha see behind, my favorite childhood puzzle dad gave me from Prague, the phone booth from London, my plane ticket from Cambodia, the Dubai tower, a stick game thingy from Zambia, Africa, the keychain Jia Wen gave me from Thailand. And there is my Bible too! :)

I did this myself by the way :D #proud


Finished shelf, and Jennifer Lawrence says hi. 
The guitar case. 


And writing this, I am approaching the 16th year on Earth. It feels so weird to be sixteen, I feel so.. teenage. It's just really different. 

Resolutions for '13: 

  • This year, I'm really trying to be more sociable, make new friends and know more people! I want to step out of my comfort zone a little, like recently I signed up to be part of the worship team for camp and I've always wanted to, but I've never had the guts to sing or play in front of a crowd. This time, I didn't care, this is all going to be for Him and I don't care if it's fails miserably. 
  • I want to pass my grade 8 for piano and drums, so bad. Like for the past few grades, I've never even practiced my exam pieces till the actual exams were approaching but this time I'm already practicing my pieces - and I haven't even picked all three yet. 
  • I want to draw more. Like do more art stuff, painting my guitar case was a good start, I guess. 
  • I want to sharpen my photography skills, like in Cambodia I had a great time hijacking my dad's cool new camera - minus the food poisoning part and the flight back to Malaysia, ugh. Therefore, say hello to your new CF camp 2013 photographer! *applaud*
  • By the end of this year, I want to try to write more. Whether if it's on this blog or a song. 
  • Renee is forcing me to do a cover, so I guess I have to. What I think would do, My Heart Will Wait by Joe Brooks. 
  • Ooh I might be in a band this year! We are still like in the 'let's have a band' part so um yeah it's working well. Cf camp worship would be good practice, and our members- Jen, Tze Ning, Sophia, Isaac, Ed, Mel, and duh me would have Grammys and etc. Hahaha.
  • Oh and I urge you all to do this. It's a littlest things that count too. So, whenever you feel down, open it up and remember all the good things from the year. 
This is my jar. 

As I said in my English Essay, this year is going to be great. I have a huge feeling. Even if it's going to be a tough Form 4 year with new subjects and new systems, I will pull through. 

Biology really fascinates me, even if it takes Jimmy Neutron to remember everything, but it is amazing how God created us, how we are fearfully and wonderfully made, with all the smallest details, the smallest cells doing the most important things. It really is amazing. Add math on the other hand, I'll start laughing and staring at the question even before I can go 'Ohhhhh'. Guess add math genius is out for me. 

So this year, I will put memories of the last year behind, and make way for new ones.
