We Could Leave the Christmas Lights Up 'til January

"There are 2 kinds of people out there.
Those who are truly happy for you and spread positivity.
Those who claimed to be happy for you but are just full of envy and spite."


Hello 2019!

I might be 8 months late but hey it's the first and most probably last blog post of 2019!

Waaaay back in 2015, I came up with this list:

Things I want to do in life:

  1. See snow.
  2. Go bungee jumping.
  3. Visit Paris and Tokyo
  4. Watch Taylor Swift live.
  5. Go on an exchange  
  6.  So many things

You can have a look at the post here

4 years later, I am proud to have said I am able to cross out 1.5 of the items in the list.

I HAVE SEEN SNOW FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE

For those of you have been with me since my whimsical high school years, I've always go around ranting about how I've always wanted to see snow and why Malaysia no snow D: I was not prepared for this. I went up to Jungfraujoch wearing 2 thin layers and a windbreaker. Nonetheless it was an amazing experience to being able to see something I've always wanted to see in my entire life.


Everyone asked me why didn't I propose it's because I can only afford super rings instead of a diamond ring.

The other 0.5 item from my list is visit Paris. Way back in 2015, I don't know why I put that on my list to be honest. But Paris was nice. I wouldn't say it's amazing, partly because it smells a bit like pee at some places and I almost got pick pocketed on my first day there. The buildings there are no joke tho. 






It really is a beautiful city.

Aside from Paris, I've went to 5 other towns/cities during my 2 weeks in Europe:


London


Strasbourg


Basel


Interlaken


Bern

You can see more of the photos if I ever decided to post it on Facebook. I might or might not come up with the itinerary. 

To those of you who always wanted to travel to your dream place, just go for it. 
To those who think I am loaded, I am not.
It took me a few years to save up for this. 
It wasn't easy but it is possible.
I am glad I am able to share this experience with the people I care about the most.


As you grow older, priorities change. 
As you grow older, your circle of friends grows smaller as well. 
As you grow older, you'll start to cherish the people who have been with you since the beginning. 
As you grow older, you'll appreciate family.


Ann why you no red shoes??


I'll end this post with my favorite polaroid.
