My first new post for 2011. I was too busy to wish everyone a Happy, Happy New Year but i guess i still could even though we are already 1 week pass new year.

So, “Happy New Year everyone! A new year, a new beginning and i wish everyone would have a better year ahead!”.

What was i so busy about till i totally abandon this blog of mine for so long? It was my eldest sister’s wedding (the very night of the new year), the first wedding in my nuclear family :). I so busy helping out here and there that it felt like my own wedding! Well, i’m glad it’s over… but it feels kind of boring now that the celebration is over… hmmm…

Anyways a let’s do a recap of my year in 2010… but before that, a sneak peek of the wedding.

The actual photos from the photographer is not ready yet.
 

Ok let’s recap.
 

Jan ’10

Mom was diagnosed with Stage I Uterine Cancer. Doc immediately scheduled a hysterectomy to remove the uterus on 1 week after the diagnosis result came out so mom could recover just in time for CNY. It was a very bad and stressful time for all of us. Fortunately the surgery went without a hitch.

I’ve learned that health is really important. I’ve really got to take good care of myself. For those females who had not taken the Cervical Cancer vaccination, i urge you to take it ASAP. I’m going to get mine this on March 2011.

First reunion since leaving college! How time flies!
 

Everyone looked great though and we had a good time catching up on old times.
 

Feb ’10

Another stressful month of the year. The first half of the month was spent nursing and caring for mom at home. Elderly people could be so frustrating to take care off. I nearly had a breakdown due to her constant complaining!

It was also the first time we had a proper meal with my sister’s boyfriend, now my brother-in-law :P. We had a good time at Restaurant 123 @ Bukit Tinggi during the CNY.
 

March ’10

Nothing much happened in March. There wasn’t anything memorable to blog about except for one thing. It was during this time that the boyfriend and i actually sat down and planned for out future. Well, to me this marked another chapter in our lives even though we still have not get a house yet… still it was a start of our house hunting project.
 

April ’10

Wow! This is like my favorite month of the year; partly because my birthday falls on this month and partly because the boyfriend and i had consistently scheduled vacations/trips on this month for the pass years.

So on this particular month of 2010 we (sis, bf and i) jumped on the plane and headed to Bali.

First we went to Kuta and i got my very first temporary tattoo.
 

Then on my birthday we ascended the volcano, Mount Batur.
 

It was the most awesome birthday ever!
 

May ’10

Nothing interesting here except Ironman 2 and reruns of NCIS if you count that as something LOL.
 

June ’10

Pathetic but yes. The latest addition to our home; 42″ Panasonic Viera!
 

July ’10

Went Glee crazy. See the banner of this blog?
 

Glee inspired :P

Then i went World Cup crazy! Vuvuzelavuvuzelavuvuzela!
 

Actually i couldn’t believe that i would enjoy football but hey, World Cup was great! I supported Germany out of spite but Spain won )Spain 1, Germany 0) so the boyfriend was over the moon about it. What’s more, i actually remember the rules of the game so i can’t wait for the next World Cup… this time without the legendary octopus i guess hahaha.

Met Tiger, the neighbor’s pup. Feisty pup which i now miss :(
 

August ’10

Started using Oratane to treat my bad acne prone skin. Had bad case of chapped lips for months after that!
 

September ’10

September was a super bad month for me. Had my first relapse of depression which weirdly was triggered after i attended a friend’s wedding. Fortunately i got better after a week of down time.
 

October ’10

I’m glad i took the first step to learn how to ride a bicycle. It was a disastrous 1 hour at Desa Park City. I still don’t know how to ride but at least i took the first step right? This will be one of the thing to do on my new year resolution list.

Made the most scary and important decision in my life. I became an organ donor. Phew!
.
.

Tiger went missing for few months then reappear at the park near my house. She followed me home and that’s how i ended up stowing her away in bf’s condo unit for a week! While we worked on getting her adopted, we had her barred in the kitchen or sometimes the bathroom. I became some sort of a dog sitter then. I’m really sorry she spoiled bf’s favorite pigskin shoes.
 

November ’10

Tiger was adopted by one of my sister’s friend. Actually he was kind enough to take both Tiger and Milo (another stray on my street).

Unfortunately, they were too much to handle (made a big mess at the family’s shop) and they have to give Milo away to a customer. :(

My only photo of Milo.

Got flashed… yet again. Man, this is getting tiring!
 

December ’10

The whole month of December is dedicated to my sister’s wedding. We welcomed a new addition to out family, my very good looking brother-in-law. We had an Indian wedding reception at Sungai Petani which was an eye opener. I just loved the Indian ceremony. We even wore sarees to the reception… yes, even my mom!
 

Being the first wedding in my family, it was rather a stressful month but at the end of the day it was good fun!
 
 

And that’s all of 2010. Looking forward to 2011, hopefully it’s a good one!
