2011
I was just reflecting about 2011 like what everyone is doing now.I am thankful for a lot of things and I can't possibly list them all. I was thinking of picking up some photographs to summarise the year but I'd probably lose my interest halfway and leave it hanging till another new year - that's how serious my habit of procrastination is and that's what I am looking forward to change in the coming year. That aside, I just wanna note down some meaningful events that has happened in the past year and has really mould me into who I am today. 2011 was definitely not an easy year but it was another fruitful year like 2010! I remember vaguely that I appreciated 2010 a lot because I was blessed and given the opportunity to travel a couple of times last year. This year was even better! A myriad of experiences that made 2011 so memorable and I definitely have lots to improve on. I need to find my balance somewhere and somehow to become the ever-efficient Kheng Leng again. The best thing that happened to me this year was to meet Euphoria! The euphoric team was damn awesome in their never-ending inspiration and their belief in me. I learnt about being a reflection to my team and being aware of what I am doing. We didn't do anything great or out of the ordinary, we were just more aware about our actions and trying to create a positive impact!
I miss the mentor, whom is always there - believing, cheering and his never-ending optimism. I miss my buddy, whom is also always there to look out for me, inspiring me in her ways and helping me. I miss my two other buddies. The blur girl who is a joy to be with, a motivation and an encouragement where her works never failed to amaze me and inspire me to be better than who I was. The happy teacher whom we had a lot of fun with despite the age gap, her spirit of learning, her contribution and her commitment touched me a lot. This is definitely one of the best teams that I have ever worked with and I look forward to future meet-ups in the future. I sincerely hope that we are all doing well wherever we are :)
Another amazing thing that happened this year - California Challenge!
I learnt a lot about purpose, people and life. There is always some unfairness in life and maybe "some" is an understatement. I have always believed that some of my friends deserve to go more than me and they will definitely enjoy the lessons, the museum trips and all the exhibitions more than me. But I'm thankful that I went. Shark and I wouldn't be so close if not for the trip. Even though we have been in the same comm for more than a year, our exchanges were lesser than a normal conversation that I hold with a stranger. Shark is like a new-found best friend. She is always there to help, to inspire and to kick my butt if there is a need to. And if not for the challenge, I wouldn't have met so many inspiring individuals as well. So many :) I will take forever to write something about all of them but there is one person whose always on my list.
There was this girl who didn't know anyone before the trip. I can't really imagine how is it like to not know anyone when everybody seems to know everybody. I am thankful that we clicked very well and had a lot of meaningful conversations along the way. She will never know and feel how much I admire her of - her courage to be honest with her opinions and her openness. I will never be able to be like her and I really hope we keep in contact in time to come. :)
The YEPeeps is topping the list again!! HEHEHEHE. It was really amazing to have met this group of wonderful people. Life will never be the same without them.
I don't feel like we are friends anymore. It's more like a family where we share so openly, where we talk about so many things under the sun and when watching tv can be very fun too. Although we struggle to meet each time, to think of gifts and plans for someone's birthday, I love them very much. I can spend a whole day lazing around with them!! :D
This year was again very amazing because of Happy Pills! I call them my happy pills because they never fail to cheer me up every time. Despite our distinct differences, we share so much joy in each other's company and we never fail to cheer each other up. hehehe I am still quite amazed by how the 5 of us came together. Even though we all had different schedules, we try to accommodate with each other to meet up monthly. Appreciate this friendship a lot!!
Hehehe, love how she is always speaking in perfect sentences, using words to describe her feelings and experiences. I love her for she is always the one coordinating our outings. She is the organised and calm one and nothing will go wrong with her around! Secondly, I love her for her candidness like a 十足的傻大姐! It is always very fun to have her around, sharing her travel experiences and all the nonsense and fun suggestions. She has always doted on us a lot and her smile never fails to cheer me up hehehe. Thirdly, this nonsense girl whom I never fail to enjoy her company. She is always willing to help me and never fail to provide a sound perspective. I love her humour so much because we share the same degree of lameness and 不要脸-ness HAHAHAHA so fun! Last but not least, YOU! You are super awesome tooooo and I love your candid vulgarities hehehe. Makes me feel that we are all very real with each other although I don't really like profanities hehe. And you are damn awesome also, always sharing, initiating topics and being all disgusting hahaha. Love them!!
And of course, the new addition to my life other than the euphoric team is tadah!!
Every work day is more fun with these people around hehehehe. Internship wouldn't have been so fun without them!! :D
I shall end here today and continue when I have the time :D
