MY 2012

Permed my hair.. (May 2012)

AND

Kept it to my waist. (November 2012)

First time ever in Guangzhou! And also first time ever staying away in another country for three weeks! Many other first times too.. ;) (June 2012)

Visited Beijing and crossed the Great Wall of China. I am now a 好汉！(September 2012)

Lived out in the woods for two days with nothing (LITERALLY NOTHING) except good company .  Yea, I participated in Raleigh's IW October 2012. 

Gave ballet three month's worth of practice.. (September - December 2012)

Also found my first ever part-time job working in Starbucks as a Barista.. (July and August 2012)
Tried a hand at pole-dancing. (August 2012)
Survived a near-death experience. (September 2012)
Went on countless food trips throughout the year.
Took up Anthropology as one of my university courses, and loved it!
And actually DID set up Taekwon-do GTF Club of Universiti Malaya. Like finally. (December 2012)

It was an interesting year.. much more fulfilling than the years before. I am glad I was given so many opportunities to broaden my perspective on life and hope there will be more of these opportunities in the years to come. More importantly, by pushing myself outside the comfort zone, I believe that I have grown more as a person, learned to accept myself as me, and be grateful for all the things I have in my life. Also the year that I have made many many friends from China (mostly from the student exchange programe).

My exams are in January again, just like the previous year. But that will not stop me from looking forward to what 2013 has to offer!
