2013 - Year in Review

It's a whole new year & reviewing back all happenings last year in my life & compacting them all in browse-thru photos. First thing to say has to be about this blog. Can't find the willpower to write for some time, thus the 2 years hiatus with only 3 posts. I sat down, I thought a while & got myself to write again early this year about my passions; food, travel, economics, sports, politics & philosophies. Writing, even about your passions is not easy really. One moment you're blank but next moment, a spark of a sentence & then a sudden overflow of thoughts to write about. Glad to say I found back my writing mojo & sincerely hope this will continue till my physical body tells me to stop.

HKR 112 Public Assembly - One of the public assemblies attended, held in Merdeka stadium. Not being busybody or a person, wanting to overthrow the government but to attend as a show of unity & pride for being a Malaysian who want a better nation for all. With the current political environment, assemblies like this will be a norm. Definitely won't be my last one. 

13th General Election - Exercised my right as a voter for the first time. Although the final result is not up to expectation, this would not dampen the spirit as I truly believe the day will come where common sense will prevails & true democracy will be achieved


Singapore trip with Akurians - Officially a trip for year 2012 but technically, made a 2013 trip. The annual trip with the usual suspects. We still act as if we're still in Form Five even though we're in our 30s & some even had kids in tow. Still, there's never a single moment of boredom felt with the peeps around. I pray that this friendship will continue till our last breaths.

Mount Kinabalu climb - This is one trip struck off my bucket list. Truly a test of willpower & strength. A battle of physical & mental toughness. A sense of achievement felt till today, providing myself a motivating sentence "If I can go up & down Kinabalu, what more I can't do??" each time I felt down.  


Cameron Highlands family trip - One of many trips with beloved family members. With the addition of a sister in law & a brother in law into an already happy family, now I understand the meaning of "the more, the merrier"
 
Foodie trip to Penang - My personal favourite from many foodie trips made this year. Great food, great durians, great company. Officially been made an annual pilgrimage trip up north together with my best bud 
 
 
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE !!!!!!
