2019 in Bullet Point

Can we take a pause on time because I can’t believe that we’re at the end of another decade! OMG OMG OMG. 2019 has been great to me except for a few misfortunes here and there but hey, that’s life. My life progress has been stagnant for the past few years but this year I really went all out with my life. Okay — it would have been better if I passed my driving test (read: I failed) back in October but other than that, everything else is great. Kind of. Let’s review my year in bullet point.

January

My January has been dry but I did go for food tasting with my husband, then, fiancé, and his mom. I booked a hall as well!
My third month working in a clinic before I went for internship.

February

I moved house after 18 years. Super saddening but it was bound to happen anyway.
I started using the life-changing Kayman Beauty Coalface Soap. It was da bomb!
I went for marriage course.
I quitted working at the clinic because my new house is far from the clinic.

March

My birthday month! Many good things happened this month. I got myself a new iPhone, bags, and perfumes for my birthday. Had my birthday dinner at Laman Grill.
Much to my dismay, I started internship.
I discovered Starbucks hot/iced chocolate. OMG where was it all this time?!
My mom’s side of the family had a barbecue night at our family’s land.

April

My friend secured us Westlife tickets for their concert in August!
I went to Malacca for a 2-day-1-night staycation with my mom’s side of the family. We had seafood dinner which obviously I couldn’t enjoy because uhm… seafood allergy.
I watched Avengers: Endgame with my husband (then, fiancé). A few days before my brother had already told me that Iron Man was going to die and I cried for hours.

May

My cousin sister’s engagement.
Bought my first Pandora charm bracelet!

June

I discovered Crime Junkie podcast on Spotify. So so good if you love crimes!
My last Eid Ul Fitr as a single woman!
This month was basically me struggling to finish my last few weeks of internship.

July

Had a very bad fever on my last week of internship but I don’t care because your home girl is done with her degree! Yeah!
I started on my thesis right after internship and oh boy the relief I felt when everything has been submitted to my supervisor!
I started buying shitload of stationery on Shopee.
I finally registered for driving license after 7 years. Gosh.

August

I bought Leuchtturm1917 metallic edition dotted notebook in Copper. I’ve been eyeing it for years and am so happy to finally have it in my hands.
I WENT TO WESTLIFE’S CONCERT WITH MY INTERNET FRIEND, ALYA. OH MY GOD WESTLIFE WAS AWESOME I SCREAMED A LOT.
2-day-1-night stay at Lexis Hibiscus, Port Dickson with my family. Awesome hotel! The breakfast was amazing.
I bought a lot of stuff from Le Maream, a local lingerie company in Malaysia. Their satin pyjamas are so comfortable! I really enjoy using them.
I went to Genting Highland Premium Outlet with my husband (then, fiancé). Please go there bringing loads of money because the designer bags there are cheaper than retail!

September

I bought my new MacBook Pro this month. I’m 5.5k poorer but at least I’m happy 😆
This month was basically full of driving classes that I had to attend and the occasional eating out.

October

So I failed my driving test. I knew how to drive alright but the officers failed me on purpose. LOL.
I did the 30-day of sheet masking up until my wedding day. Your girl needed the glow!
I tried the infamous pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks. I think it’s overrated and I do not like it at all.

November

I went to a spa with my mom for a lil bit of pampering before my wedding day.
I got married on the 9th of November! The very best day of my life!
After the wedding, my husband and I stayed at Cyberview Resort & Spa for two nights. Amazing hotel as well. Their breakfast is good too.
Our wedding reception for my husband’s side was on the 16th.
My husband and I went for our honeymoon to Tioman Island for 3 nights. My husband + beach = what more do I want, really.

December

I had a miscarriage. I wrote all about it here.
I went to Penang Island with my family. We stayed at Bayview Beach Resort for 2 nights. Loved the family room! Breakfast was really good as well.
My husband and I went to Ipoh, Perak for his cousin’s wedding. We stayed at Clearwater Sanctuary Golf Resort. Sucks that they don’t maintain the place anymore. It could have been beautiful.
We had the last family dinner of the year with my family at Victoria Station, Jalan Ampang. It’s been almost a decade since we had steak there.
