2015 be like-

Warning: this post is gonna be long. 

It's already December. wow. 24th Dec 2014 tu macam semalam je. I still remember I had to go the lab, while everyone else went out dating or something coz it was Christmas eve (its a weird tradition in Japan where couples go dating on Christmas eve). Dating in the lab with my partner, doing our experiments from 8 am, till 4 am the next morning. I went back home after that, then came back to the lab again around 10 am. No, he's not my boyfriend. He does look hot in his black suits though. LOVELY sight. I love to stare at guys with really nice suits (well fitted ones. not gelebeh sana sini). 

Oookay, enough with good looking guys. 

Lab, experiments, done. January 2015 came and I was already busy with thesis. Thank God my partner is a perfectionist. He helped edited my Japanese language (which I'm really bad at...) in the thesis and my thesis was almost 完璧 (kanpeki: perfect). Submitted my thesis, then I had final presentation at the school and a conference on February. 

Then I had to bid farewell both of my "古武道好き女子会" members (girls love martial arts club). The sister on the right went to China for post doc. I always shamelessly went to her house whenever I was hungry and demanded food from her. The sister in the middle went back to her home country and works there now. We did a lot of things together. Three foreigners who loves anime and martial arts. Dont mess with any of us. We are dangerous. XD

In March, my parents came to Japan in March for my graduation (more like for holidaying lah. graduation ceremony there not as grand as in Malaysia).

Graduation day

In April, some of my friends decided to make a farewell party for me. It was really nice of them. My boss begged me to teach a few more classes before I go. My boss and his wife are lovely people. It was hard to say no. Somehow I was able to squeezed in a few classes lah. 

Farewell party. *semua orang duduk jauh2. dalam gambar je nampak dekat. 

My last day teaching at the English Teaching Room. Wonderful kids.

My aikido club friends pulak, decided to make a farewell day trip. so we went hiking in Mie.

The next day after the trip, my housemates and I emptied our apartment (I lived with 2 more Malaysian girls. 1 girl is still in Japan. Will be graduating this spring), moved out and went back to Malaysia.

I drove this 1 tonne truck. The girl in the photo is my housemate.

Soooo I was back in Malaysia in late April. All I did was searching for which universities I want to do my master in, golek2 at home (berat naik 10kg) and helped my mom at her booth.

For teacher's day I told my SeSerian BFF that I want to celebrate it with our teachers in SESERI. She said, okay, jom. So we brought some cake and celebrate with the teachers there. It was just a normal cake. not even an expensive fancy cake, yet the teachers seemed so happy. It was just a cake. They're the one who helped me to get straight As in SPM. a cake is nothing compared to what they've done for me and my friends. Sangat berhutang budi dengan cikgu-cikgu. Sangat terhutang? berhutang? berhutang macam lebih tepat je?

In August, my SMKBJ BFFs and I decided to go to Krabi. 3 of us. 1 room for me. 1 room for the 2 of them. obviously. I'll be starting school in September that was why we decided to go somewhere together before all 3 of us start school/job etc. 

we love anime, we love japan. 

So, I started school in September. Doing a project under the Low Carbon Emission theme. School in the weekdays, helping my mom on weekends, sewing shawls on my free days. 

I look so awesome, haters gonna hate

Last month, my best friend got married. I still remember the day she cried under the bed in the dorm 8 years ago. hahahah. She's someone's wife now. tu dia.

Pejam celik, pejam celik, dah December 24 2015... aiyooo so fast one... today somehow I managed to filled a volunteering activity in my schedule sekejap before going to a wedding. I usually weren't able to join these activities because If its on the weekend, its in the morning/afternoon. Have to help my mom at her booth. tak boleh la. If its weekdays pula, usually it will be at night. my mom will be sooo worried if I go back home later than 8pm coz there were a few snatch thief cases happened in my area recently. on 27th I'll leave my mom's booth at 8am for an event at UM. On new year's day, theres another event at kota Damansara. I'm so excited!!!! I haven't been active in Malaysia for 5 years! Well, I was not that active, but boleh la like once, twice a week 5 years ago. I hope this momentum will go up lagi in 2016. I'll try. I've been living on my own for 5 years (3 years with housemates though) and now duduk rumah balik, quite restricted in so many things so I'm still trying to get used to this. 

Wish me luck. Bismillahirahmanirahim.
