What 2013 Had Done To Me?



January – Hospitalized?
Indeed it was a 4-days bed ridden. Herpes simplex – that was the name of the pain I had and amazingly, there were no cure to it. Root cause, overstressed and lack of rest. Did I mention that was the first time I’ve got myself hospitalized? What a way to usher in 2013.

February – Chinese New Year
This would be a life lesson for all. Remember how difficult was it for me (and my brother) to get a painter a week before Chinese New Year and finally we decided to put our hands into good use? This is a great story to tell everyone that when others say no, we say yes! Great things happen when you say YES!

March – When a Crisis Became an Opportunity
If there is one thing I’ve learned from my ex-boss, it would be this. While there was a huge feud between him and another colleague of mine, I had the opportunity to refuel a submarine. Bidan terjun at its best!

April – The Transfer “Drama”
April was such a painful month. There were so much of uncertainties and not knowing where will the road leads me. The end of the drama, well, I am still around somehow. Worthless drama after all.

May – The Emperor Left
And I wrote a poem for him despite what he has done to me – The Old Oak Tree. That much of a relief, I found myself slowly healing in the months to come.

June – Roti John Retailer.
Totally random, it was rather just go and kill it! Or this new jargon that I’ve learned, Run and Gun. Turned out to be pure joy and an experience that will never duplicate itself ever again.

August – Canon EOS 60D
I was shocked to learn that my best jimui, Mak Teh only came to know yesterday that I’ve bought this new wife of mine. Well, this would be the best bought gift for myself till date. When clarity came into the mind, I bought a camera!

September - OZ Called Again!
I woke up one fine Saturday and could remember vividly how wonderful Australia was during my last stay there in 2007. I was then ‘rewarded’ a 5 days work-vacation to Melbourne, Australia. Dreams do come true, have faith!

October – Joe
The world finally knew who Joe is! Its rather cute when I have an alter-ego for myself as I see it as an escape en route for my emo-ness at times. Joe is fierce!!!

November – The Busiest Month of The Year
Yes, I became an event planner (and interior designer too!). I’ve stayed in Langkawi for a week to get things done and it was the best experience one could get out of work! That was when I realized how much rewarding it was and how appreciative I should to what I’ve got.

December – Change, Forgiving and The Art of Letting Go
Its rather sad that at this time of the year, I finally came to know that “When people show you who they are, believe them!” – wise words from Maya Angelou. If they are unkind, don’t find reasons to prove that they are kind. If they are ignorant, do not find reasons to say they are just being youthful. They are already sending off signs that they are who they are. I am left clueless and I felt I no longer know who that person is. Confused…

Perhaps 2014 bring a clearer envisioned year. Auld Lang Syne peeps!
