January 2015. We went to Han Jiang BBQ House, Sibu for lunch. This lunch meant so much to me as we reunited after so many months apart with my family. My family was my everything. Nothing can be replaced.
February 2015. Tay's family Chinese New Year Eve Dinner. It was the day that I really looked forward throughout the year because entire Tay's family can reunion. Away from home always make me appreciate the family reunion because I can't predict who will be missing from the table next year.
"新年期间，不管有多少应酬与聚会，别忘了，吃了一顿团圆饭，拍了几张阵势很强的大合照后，也要好好待在家人身边，寻回家人与家人的那份“平常心”，并且尊重彼此的生活方式与习惯。不必刻意，不须特别，这才是家” -Quoted from Owen Yap Facebook
March 2015. I put Buddhas' pictures and prayed it everyday in my hostel room. Sometimes, I also contributed flowers as offering. Through daily praying, I found my inner peace.
April 2015. JoJo and me bought a Xiao Mi smartphone for Papa Tay. He demanded a smartphone to follow current smartphone trend. He also enjoyed in learning on how to use the smartphone. Sadly, he lost his smartphone within few months.
I had been manipulated in May 2015. It was a lie of 1 day Hatyai tour package advertisement in student university facebook page. Starting from that day, I didn't believed what I read online.
June 2015, having spontaneous Bali trip with JoJo. First in my life time, I experienced relaxation for traveling. No trip planning and always pampered myself throughout the trip played an important role in reducing my mentally stress
July 2015. I back home for 2 weeks. I had the wonderful times when playing with my sisters.
August 2015, long awaited proposal defense was coming. Thank Buddha, I passed with minor correction. My hard work was paid off. It was the milestone for my Phd journey.
September 2015. Entire September month I waited for the supervisor's guidance to proceed my research works but she was tied up with her works. Apparently, waiting by doing nothing and worries also considered as one form of mentally stress. This waiting process make me learned:
"higher patience level was required to go through waiting supervisor's feedback process"
October 2015, I met a new friend. She motivated and encouraged me from times to times.
November 2015, I traveled to Hong Kong with Naruto. Always wished to travel with her and finally my wish came true. I knew her better through traveling. It also increase our sisterhood.
December 2015 went to Krabi, Thailand with JoJo again. Thank you JoJo reluctant traveled far from Kota Kinabalu to UUM just to find me. Without her,I can't saw the beauty of Ao Nang beach and Hong Island. A moment that I'll never forget.
Looking back my 2015 pictures and regaining these memories bring tears into my eyes. It was the up and down of my life. Nevertheless, I'm grateful I'm still alive and what I have right now. I sincerely hope my 2015 will better than 2015.
Happy New Year 2016!!!
