I've been slacking. Have been feeling reluctant to on my PC after working hours since months ago. Maybe age is catching up or maybe I am just too lazy. Didn't really have the mood to write a proper blog post and I just realised because I was trying hard not to reveal my real emotions. I used to blurt about everything and poor English/grammar mistake is never my concern but I am not sure since when I started to stop myself from being too emotional.

Soooooo, in year 2013, I just want to be myself when I blog. That means I am free to use lazy/busy as execuses of not blogging, I can write long wordy posts without any pictures, I can be as emo as I want, I can curse as much as I like, I can go with random posts when I am not in the mood etc etc
A recap on year 2012:
January
It wasn't a pleasant month. Work has taken its toll on me, I still remember the client rejected the products right in front of me and I almost teared up. It's the N-times I thought of withdrawing from what I was doing. But the rejection wasn't the main cause for me to consider quitting.
February
I would say this was the worst month in the whole of year 2012. I got scolded a few times unreasonably. The good side of it, I think I've grown up a little (mentally of course :p). I didn't fight back and I think I've handled it professionally. I ended up jobless after mid of Feb.
March
- Finally, something good to recall :). I was in Kuching with Yoke Yee! It was an ad hoc trip but we enjoyed it so much! Especially the road trips to all the tourist attractions. Hopefully we can do this again soon.
- I went to Australia with Bin's family. It was my 1st time to Tasmania and it's definitely an unforgettable trip. I will not forget the cold night spent out with Bin under the cluster of stars and drinking James Boag :) Though we were freezing -_- , the price to pay for romantic moments.
April
- Went for a bike trip to Batu Pahat, Kuantan and Cameron. It was a relaxing trip before I start work in mid April ;)
- King crab cooked for all the crabbies. The crabbies gathering uplifted my spirit, I guess that's what good friends are for :)
- Attended the 428 Bersih rally.
- Didn't start off well.
- Got to know that some party scolded me badly behind my back, spread negative rumors about me and make things difficult for me. I wouldn't deny that I was angry and found it hard to believe how one can stoop so low to pull you down just because you don't follow their way. But it actually makes me a better person? I remained silent because I chose to appreciate those who stand by me through thick and thin. Hence the post of "Appreciation".
- Meet up with Ms Mandi in an organic restaurant near my place and this reminds me that I haven't met her for ages!
June & July (copied from old entry :p)
Company Trip to Hanoi - thanks bosses for the invitation.

I will never forget the orchestra performed by Mr Steve!

Bike trip to Thailand - headed to Hatyai and Koh Samui over the weekend. It was a long journey, it's my 1st time traveling so far being a pillion. I couldn't feel my as* at the end of the day. Just imagine riding on a bike for more than 10 hours a day, gone through hot sun and heavy rain. BUT it was a fun-filled trip. Excellent company and we were being well taken care of. Thanks to those who have contributed to make this trip a great one, it's a great experience.I came home lau sai, had too much spicy food I will blog about this trip in details soon later.
