HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYBODY! wow...we've made it through to 2015!! didnt last year past by so fast?? i dont know about you guys but to me, it did. where did the days go, i have no idea. as i look back on 2014, the only highlight of the year was attending my brother's wedding in the middle of the year and that was it.
overall, for malaysians it hasnt been a smooth ride. first it was mh370 that went missing (and still is!), then it was the downing of mh17 where all lives on board was lost (due to evil people raging war against each other and killing innocent lives!) and finally it was the budget airlines airasia that went down recently. so tragic! imagine not seeing your loved ones ever again, and they are gone .. just like that, without any rhyme or reason.
but nevertheless, we still have to push on and try to move forward and hope that 2015 will bring us better luck and no more tragedies. i think 3 in one year is more than sufficient to last us a lifetime! indeed it was a bad bad year for us malaysians.
anyways, on a lighter note, how did you all celebrate the long holidays? how was christmas (to those who celebrated it) and how did you usher in the new year? as for me, well christmas is usually all about family and spending quality time with them. oh and lets not forget all the eating and merry making in the process. for the new year, i was home with my family, playing board games (cluedo) which was fun coz we havent played it in ages! and in between, i was just chilling out with my close friends, having get togethers, dinners, coffee sessions etc. thankfully the weather wasnt as bad and there were some good days (when it wasnt pouring like crazy!)
christmas tree and a mini keg of german beer to kick off christmas!
will you feast your eyes on that!! how bloody amazing does that look? all i can say is YUMMYYYY!
delicious home cooked food made by my aunt, almost everything made from scratch. my aunt told us that she was busting her chops in the kitchen the entire day! no joke ok! anyways, i couldnt ask for more! it was a darned good meal! you know, all i did this holidays was eat eat eat! shucks i've piled on the pounds! ugh! but hey it was bloody worth it.
more glorious homecooked food made by my aunt, this time doing chinese style! hey, she's one great cook not to mention baker as well! and this is only her hobby as she loves cooking and baking, making us her guinea pig. hahahaha but whose complaining!
last but not least, since it was good weather (although it did drizzle a lil bit), my friends and i chilled out by the pool, having drinks, snacking away and catching up with each other. let the good times roll.
well thats about it. i've nothing much to say except that i hope 2015 will bring all of us more joy, fun, happiness and laughter and enough of all this bullshit thats going on around the world. we should try to live in peace and harmony and make this world a better place for all to live in, not kill each other every single day..it will never end in a good way, trust me. we should also stop being greedy, selfish and get power hungry! instead count our blessings!
alas, i'd like to leave you with these wise words by the dalai lama. we bought this piece of canvas back in december and we are going to try to live by these words! maybe you guys should try it too and keep this as your 2015 mantra?! good luck one and all!! i wish you well!
