2012 Wrap-Up: Year in Review (by Facebook)


So Facebook has this 2012 Year in Review thingy, and I was curious, clicked into it and it contains the highlights of what I did this year, in Facebook actually... So I decided to make a blog version, will merge with my Facebook highlight and my personal Blogger highlight! I'm doing this for myself... Just in case my future self is too lazy to read every post one by one, this past self is so kind to sort everything for him.  Huhuhu, how proud.

To future Wallace: I'm so kind right?

You know before 2012, I was once a very underrated kid and do not have any confidence. I always rely on my friends and family, until this year I've learned quite a lot. I've experienced so many different things, such as working as a full timer, waiter. Going through some huge messy mess troubles as a temporary promoter and stuffs like that. The begin of my college life blah blah blah... So here we are, coming to the end of the 2012! Not end of the world...

Hi hi! Friends in 2012! Actually I had 1800+ friends when I first joined Facebook... A little confession here, I thought adding so many friends can be like the coolest user or something like that but it actually gives me a huge headache because... The news feed was full of the strangers' update and I didn't even get to know what happen to my friends! And unlike most people, I actually unfriend my every strangers one by one... And vowed I will only add people whom I know, recognized or schoolmates. I added quite a lot of people D=

-------------------------------


So starting from the very beginning of the "spark" of my 2012 life, I went to my first ever concert! That was the time Petronas invited Girls' Generation, an idol girl group that happens to be one of my ultimate bias in the entire K-POP world, to Malaysia and perform a couple of songs here! OH MY GOOODDDD right?! I didn't see them up-close but hearing their voice live already made me gone like super super super crazy! I still remember my voice pierced Rachel's ear xD And after a week or something she said my voice was still ringing in her ears... I'm so sorry =P And people around me looked at me because of this uncommon, or "unique" scream of mine grabbed so many unwanted attentions... Oh stop it you~ And this concert was held at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre! Look at the marvelous twin tower! One of the Malaysia's proud icons :)



-------------------------------

And I mentioned, I started my first part time job D: Usually right, teenagers like I was started their first part-time job at the age of sixteen or even younger! But under Malaysia's policy (or rules and regulation?), teenagers under sixteen are not allowed to work. And that was by the time I finish my SPM examination. And I got a temporary job that will earn me a four hundred or more something... Promoter. And that job wasn't so pleasant, because this girl threw all the responsibilities on me and I had to bear with all the responsible from her. Seriously girl, FUCK YOU. I still remember the anger...

And the sequel: First Timer, Promoter.

-------------------------------

And now I've got a stable job from Madam Mooi. Here I met Miss Lee, who shared a lot of her experiences to me and my waiter colleagues. The girl in the picture with me, well not my girlfriend. She was my "comrade" haha! She started working at the restaurant at the same time with me. ;) The supervisor sometimes put me on duty with her, so during our work we shared our stories. And I still remember the things she told me, experiences of being a college student and stuffs like that. Thanks for the tips, Penguin! =D Since this is only a summary, I can't mention everyone in detail, so please forgive me! I'm not biased! =D Well I also remember you, Mr. Seow, Aiku Gui and Kyon... And Ah Luke. It's great to meet all of you :)

Nothing BIG happened when I was working... The worst I can remember was I got caught playing my phone when I was assigned to promote the menu outside to random people. Oh oh... I got my experiences here, although the salary wasn't enough for my college pocket money... T__T I had to rely my parents again, and I feel guilty. Time to work for my long sem break!

-------------------------------

I hung out with my primary school friends! After six years, we're still friends! =) Everyone has changed, especially you Linly! This year we celebrated Xyana (or Rebecca...) and Andy birthday on the same day! They are like, the twin of our class. I kinda got really offended by the way Andy talk, and comment. Urgh, sarcastic. But it's all good because we have been buddies for six years. We don't contact each other often though. Same goes to the other Standard 6 classmates.

Aww, look at them both! So sweet. Too bad they're not couple. Now we still come out and yumcha sometimes. The latest addition was Carmen, better known as "Xiiao But Dian"... Her stage name. Enmi also joined us at the last moment, that I will talk about later la. Now we're talking about these two lovely people crossing their hand to each others! Good moments, good moments... You guys are just too adorable, hehe.

-------------------------------



Hello, it's college life! Urgh, I don't even want to look at my Induction Programme entry so... Let's just forget about it. So I was sorted into CD1205-4, my class for foundation or something... Now I only found out CD stands for Communication Design... And the major I'm majoring is Digital Animation, a.k.a DG for short. In this class I met most of my good friends in college. And now I am missing those funny funny moments. Not sure if it's one-sided (me) or something... Everyone now got separated. We occasionally hang out at Starbucks, because of this Friday special offer.


Best choice of photo, Shader with me. Another girl selca with me! Shader is one crazy friend. She can be funny to be around. Aww man, look at this picture... I MISS MY BLONDE HAIR! Now my hair is like, rusty blonde... Dirty blonde maybe, or brown. Urgh, I'm starting miss my blinking blinking blonde xD What's more to mention about this content? Hmm... 

So many things happened I couldn't even recall. We went to Starbucks, sometimes Sunway Lagoon. The best thing about Semester 1 was Life Drawing! The lecturer will select some students and us will capture the action and draw it out on our Layout Pad. So... yeahhhhhh.

And there was also a majoring talk dedicated for Semester 1 students and final sem for CCD students, it's time for us to choose our major! And I struggled a bit for Illustration and Digital Animation but still I chose Animation eventually... Almost a tough choice for me but no, I have more passion for animation.

A flashmob going on! I missed T-ara Lovey Dovey flashmob by oneFM, now I am not gonna miss the second one. ...And I shouldn't have gone for it. First, I gone there by myself, second, the flashmob is not opened for public. THIRD, I did not win any B.A.P showcase tickets! T__T But it's alright, I saw the deejay Kyan from oneFM and the host from an 8TV show I forgot, Wind in real life! Not sure they're being friendly because they're doing their job, or they are friendly always...

Anyways nothing really special to mention about. They're giving away free tickets to attend B.A.P's showcase! I wanted it, because I've never seen an artist with my own naked eyes before. But I know I don't stand a chance because I don't know much about them. Been standing there, raising up my hand but not wanting to sing or dance for their song...

So we are coming to the end of semester one... And everyone has seem to come to love our class. LOL it feels like I'm graduating, by look at this picture. Everyone's looking good in formal, and definitely one of my favourite photos. The woman in blue is my all time favourite lecturer, Pinky! She taught us a lot about public speaking, and she also shared some of her experiences... Haha, so many people share their experience with me. I feel so proud! xD Actually there's a full version of this thingy, so I'll leave the rest to the blog post. I'm too lazy to tell everything HAHA! =D And here's a video for this post! :)

-------------------------------

So here comes! Our semester break! And 6O classmate jio me go yumcha again. And here we go, spend our moments together again :) And by this time I redyed my hair to a brighter blonde, refreshing the blonde. Supposed to go brown but... Never mind.



So now we have four new people to join our "gathering" gang... Jason, Carmen, Enmi and Fu. Look, it's the happy happy family. Sorry, Jason! Dx You weren't in the picture. I am so glad to see you all again! Oh wow I sound like the 'California girl' =___= Okay should tone down a little. It's so amazing to keep this friendship for all six years long. These people are the closest classmates from 6O back then. People change, everyone change. But then, we're still us. :) Linly said she prefer to be with us because she can be herself when she's with us.

And so much more gossip to share with our past like who's who, who changed, whoever blah blah blah. I think it's top rated topic for class gathering right... And Linly is planning for another gathering. I guess this class is the only that can remain this lasting friendship long.

Time to start a new semester again! In this semester I'm gonna do something more challenging... From drawing gesture to portrait, from using pencil to brush. All those subjects evolved to a new stage! D= But to be frank with you I actually enjoy my semester two subjects more than the first one because I'm going to do what I love! Like drawing portrait. I've always been wanting to draw a realistic drawing (although I am still somewhere below the average now...) and now I've got a chance to learn! And as for the colour studies, I am not so good at it. First is because the things I used for my Drawing 2 class was insufficient, second was it takes time for me to improve on brush... I guess I need to keep on practicing on my colouring skills.

SO MUCH things that I've experienced in semester two... Oh well I guess I'll tell you more in the specific blog post ;D I just got lazy out of all sudden =P


-------------------------------


As much as I confessed that I dislike clubbing and stuffs like that, I've actually gave it a try and... It was unexpectedly enjoyable- no, I mean, thrilling! xD I couldn't think of better word to use but it's just that. The music inside was good. And because of the music influenced inside the club, I've started to listen more to English song and they revived my addiction for "Like A G6" song urgh WHY YOU DOING THIS TO ME LOL! And since then I would consider for a second time to clubbing... Just for the music tho. I am still not at the level of touching alcohol (judge whatever you want).

Why do I have to keep looking at my blonde hair urgh... I feel so terrible for stripping the blonde xD Oh never mind =P People were so crazy inside and they can dance with any strangers. Few of my friends got drunk... And thank god we were with them. Sandy was the most drunk person there. I think that was the time she went through some tragic part of her life or something xD And Claire didn't look drunk but she claimed herself to be drunk lol Wahh so much to mention. I got seriously crazy when they played my favourite songs, let's say if I go clubbing like EVERYDAY, I think I might lose 10kg of weight lol...

P.S. I am still as good as I was...

-------------------------------

This event was actually invited by Sylvia... And she was so super duper socialized. Even more that what you thought of my "socialize level"... I thought it might be kinda cool because they have this present exchanging session. Adele who is a dedicated Christian was also excited for this event. And guess what, even our Visual Communication lecturer was so thrilled about it. He even offer extra marks for us if we go, but it was just for joking purpose la xD And I went for this event and guess what, I turned into an anti-social guy. LOL! lalalalalala it was Wednesday and I did terrible things to my drawing. I can't even painted nicely. Zzzzz Sylvia and everyone keep asking me to paint faster faster faster made me feel so anxious and nervous and and and... Yeah, I did. Err, hmm... What else to mention LOL!


It was erm, a quite enjoyable day la I think. My classmates and my friends were going so... I guess that can be added for another fun... 


-------------------------------


And now here comes the end of the semester two! I have been busy for all these days and my life was all about class and home... Maybe I did spend time with my friends, yeap. I actually spend a lot of time with my friends. Haih, now that I got my result which isn't even my ideal result, I should change my attitude of learning >=O This post is basically a sub-wrap up post for my entire semester two, like I did for the semester one xD Not as hyped as semester one but still...


I compiled pictures and stuffs in that post and even included our final unofficial activity for our class x) Sunway Lagoon! I guess it's some kind of tradition eh, for going to Lagoon after the semester end. Phew! No more Bahasa Kebangsaan subject, I'm finally free from BM! Oh well I guess I have come to like my new class. Let's get along for the rest of our academic days!


-------------------------------

We're free from the semester two! And The One Academy has organized this One Step to Kim Jung Gi, I thought it might be interesting to join the trip. The fees was quite reasonable, but by the time I want to go register for the bus and accommodation it was already fully booked already. So Jeng Shan and AY Kenny came out with their own plan for self-service trip! xD They researched everything and the price and everything was actually more reasonable than the organizing from our college itself. Okay! Settled. Let's go to Penang! For our personal holiday and the Kim Jung Gi event! It has been like, so many years ago when I been to Penang. I didn't even have a clue of what Penang was like. All I could do was imagining and stuffs like that... I haven't been on a holiday for quite long already... Nah, not really. The place where I go often for holiday with my friends is Genting, an overrated spot for holidays.


Okay la, actually the biggest purpose for me to come here in Penang is to trespassing The One Academy Penang! Hohoho, evil laugh. I actually wanted to see how's everything built inside, and compare with the campus I'm studying and so on so on. Actually I wanted to try scanning my own card there to see if it works... I know I'm crazy. it was a four days trip in Penang, and we lived in Ryokan, a hostel for our trip. And I have like, so many blog posts compiled into one, for the VERY DETAIL of this trip...

And as for the final highlight of the awesome 2012 year!


Since I am so duper free in my holidays, I've decided to come out a Christmas plan with my friends. And Adele got nothing to do in her Christmas, so... Why not? We started our shopping first at the lowest ground floor in Sunway Pyramid new wing Jusco (AEON), getting the candies ready. We bought quite a lot of candies actually. Then we started distribute the candies to people! Mainly, kids. Supposedly I wanted to do it outside of the Sunway Pyramid because the atmosphere there is better and it wouldn't be as pack as it was inside. You know, it's holiday after all. And most of the people love shopping in the mall right? ;)

It's so happy to see the kids smile happily at you when they receive their treats... You can see cherishing the boy smile in the photo xD Although there are cases like we accidentally made babies cry... Because we were pushing the candies to the baby and they thought we were scary... Oh no, feel so guilty Dx Should've tape that down xD There are no specific blog post for this activity, but if I feel like doing one, I will. Not sure though, probably never. Here's a video to show you the footage of the activity!

So yeah, 2012 has been great year to me... So many different life experiences, like starting a job and starting my college life... All my years before were just going for extra classes, school and home. Nothing much happened, just some childish stuffs going around... 2012, a truly great year for me! Hopefully 2013 will be another great year for me too! For the time being, I shall arrange myself for a countdown party or something. By that then, let's restart for another first ever blog post! ;)

Seriously, 2012...
YOU AWESOME!
