Baby we're going down in 2011...
Just starting to recall the remnants of 2011 as another year bites the dust, but so many great things happened, I'm really blessed to have lived it at all. The start of the year was ultimately promising, as all years do, but then it kind of went downhill a little bit, but I think all in all it ended off great. If I could plot the year in a graph, which I think I should totally do every year, it would look something like this:
The gist of what I can remember, but I'm sure there was more awesome stuff going on...
February:
The Wanted showcase - wish I had the nerve to go for the interview or something... I regret nothing though - at least I've seen them in the flesh right?
Taylor Swift concert (I GOT TO TOUCH HER ARM).
Was pretty high that night, because it was like the first concert I've been to since Jamie Cullum and Paramore, and it was one of my idols. Ugh, too awesome... and she was already quite good live.
March: Penang getaway with my mom - so much fun. Only had iPhone pictures but since I had to switch my iPhone due to a malfunctioning feature, I lost all those photos cos I didn't know how to back up stuff then... sigh.
April: Tom and Giovanna got engaged. Saw McFly in the flesh behind glass doors at Changi Airport. Won tickets to Justin Bieber concert but the organiser was late in arriving and we missed half the concert.
June: Attended a Maroon 5 press conference. Graduated from NP. Stopped internship with Straits Times.
awesome friends I made while working.
July: Flew to Melbourne for university, had some trouble settling in, but then it got better.
Aug: Grandfather passed away whilst I was overseas.
Nov: Missed a free gig for Ed Sheeran, came back from Melbourne for summer break. Got a haircut (bangs, my best decision yet). Dougie McFly won I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here.
The boys had one of their best years ever I felt... Love and career-wise.
Also made a new friend... :)
Dec: My 20th birthday! Floss passed away. Harry McFly won Strictly Come Dancing. Met Joe Brooks and heard him sing live. Met up with my great friends and had so much fun on the last day of 2011.
My virgin experience singing karaoke... I don't think I'll do it again.
Christmas was like, totally awesome cos I got to eat Christmas ham and turkey and pie...
Spent the last day of 2011 with the best people I could ever spend it with... eating dimsum no less.... HAHAHA. We have to go again!!! Vivocity had lousy fireworks, remind me never to go there for countdown again....
Best friends for life! Wheeeeee. :)
So, yeah, 2011 treated me quite well, but here's to hoping 2012 can be so much better...
Already it seems to be quite happening! Meeting a group of McFly fans for the first time, Foster the People gig, Simple Plan gig too hopefully, Elena coming back for Chinese New Year, back to Melbourne for school in Feb, Ky coming to Australia for holiday in June/July.... perhaps Joe Brooks or McFly will be coming back to Singapore... One Direction to Australia??? There's only one way to find out whether 2012 will be awesome, and that is to live everyday to the fullest. I've got to keep reminding myself of that - it could be my resolution, I haven't really thought about it though.
Till the next post,
