Happy New Year ! A photo compilation.

I'm envious of those who keep their blogs running. These people are book writers, magazine publishers and they're in the course of recording history for the years to come. Sejarah! :P

Its the EnD of a joyous 2007.. and what better time to begin the year with;


The sillyface. A true friend. Laughed alot, finds humor in any situation. Great company. She has been by my side and I'll see to that for the years to come. Hee! She has left for summer school in NZ. I'm missing her already. =)

"It's the New Year. Lets avoid conflicts. I'm sorry to everyone especially my girl."

One Big Family.


Without them, NOT the same, different...

Buds, and still are despite the distance.


SMKBU's spirit.


Primary buddies missing one.

DAKAS

As it goes "Together we stand, divided we fall".

A surprise party back-to-back but nobody took pics of the first one.
Thanks alot people ! Appreciated it! Had the bestest evenings for consecutive days, which is better? You can't compare them. . I have been fortunate to have you people around me! This is so going into my personal history book on "Best Birthdays"

In between, 6 months period. Hell lot went on but no pictures :(

Then its farewell to M'sia with closer than friends people. Shared the laughter and tears.

A shy Zhu Hann. A rare sight.

...and hello to Nz. Brand new experience, different cultures in Moooo land. Haven't seen one though (Cow).

The City of Sails at dusk.

Traffic free. Hustle free. Where we be prepared to say "Bring em' on"! Life starts where we'd be ready to..

...compete to be the bestest NerD around.

..to blend into the KIWI culture.

To be artistic in all sorts.
Before..

..after

...to share and spare some sweet moments.

...to observe every inch that's there (That's Lotion).

...to be a chef (Bubur Cha Cha, yeah its edible).

...to enjoy the many different views.

...to be surprised!

...never forget to put a smile in your face no matter how messy life gets to you.

...and at the end of the day, remember to just relax.

Geological site.
East Coast Bay Formation (ECBF).


Moments later when everyone got down. Crowded.

It's not all about stones and rocks.


There's always glamarous Starbucks everywhere around the world to cheer you up..

Raspberry GreeN Tea.

also, to add a little bit of spice to your life.
That's how it goes. Cheers to have reached the one year mark. :D I'm looking forward to the next.. and the next..

"Stealing bones". Don't rely on DHL!

Coming November...

That's right, she's all FREE to fly back while I'm still stuck with a paper to go.


Same pose, same day..
..different time. My roommate Craig a Scot.


A week later..
All packed and ready to go!

My flight took 10 hours to fly from Auckland back to KL. Boredom was never felt throughout. There were great up-to-date shows like Transformers, latest tracks on air and sitting to my right was another Malaysian, a senior, whom I talked to throughout the end of my flight. He, a PR there, visits Malaysia once every year to see his mum.

Touching down KLIA felt like a balloon inflated with air being PoP. Emotions doesn't just flow slowly out, it gushed all within a second or two. Mix feelings of everything ran through every nerves of mine. The thought of being HOME is just wonderful. Ohh.. then there's a surprise :O, my mum couldn't recognize me when I pushed the trolley out to the arriving hall that night with slightly longer than normal hair. It was such a joke. Dad too; only till he spotted the luggages i was carrying did he recognized me. In around the first week, I was plagued with food poisoning. Had my braces tightened too, so couldn't eat a damn thing. Life's a struggle.

I witnessed Roger Federer going head on with Pete Sampras in Clash of Times held at Stadium Melawati, Shah Alam; courtesy goes to Xiao Wen's mum. Fedex was just superb as the ace of modern tennis world. For a long retired guy like Pete, he proved his talent back then have not YET tarnished. To say that he wasn't too far behind Federer is a false statement. He did matched Federer at-his-best. Though eventually he would finally concede to fatigue as Federer got his final ace, there was not a moment of disappointment throughout the game. The spilling thrills of both players exchanging shots lasted an hour and a half.

Pistol Pete, Agong, FedeX with Najib at the back.

This was how close I got to him. *Yeeps*

Aunts and Uncles (My sponsors).

Friends that we met there. Yep I was hyper.

Trip to Penang. One week, two weddings, three sisters and a whole lot of food!

Wen sisters and I :O

Richard Clayederman up in Genting Highlands.

Digi man but there weren't any coverage for Digi.

The French man himself who speaks like a lady.

Oh yes, glamorous Starbucks everywhere. I mean it.

Family.

Christmas this year was quiet. Family bonding. :) They're most important. The lessons they taught are still with me.

That sums up my year of 2007. I came to realize that as the echoes of voices and memories dim over time, they would completely be replaced by the excited and happy sounds of people counting down to welcome the New Year. This is the circle of life. A step forward to take.

Oh yeah .. my first experience of getting drunk happened on New Year's day itself! It sucks. I nearly lost myself. Couldn't drive. Friend had to send me back with my own car. Dizzy the next morning. I made my first resolution for 2008 on that very day which is "Never to get drunk again". Ahaa.. Cheers~

So Happy New Year and let this year 2008 be a great one!

Promise to stay sober. Hicks*
