In 2008, I’ve just realised how much changes I had myself in for, too many for me to list honestly, but I’ll be giving this a try. Jeez, this is so not good for me, going to the past and reminiscing it and stuff, it’s not gonna make me any happier, or maybe it could
So yes,
In 2008 :-
1. I fell out of the whole J-Pop frenzy scene and gave away/stashed at a corner the Japanese magazines and boy-group souvenirs I owned which cost me more than a thousand ringgit. I swore myself not ever to be a fan-girl again. I am over that stage of life!
2. I got myself into the whole British music scene AGAIN after giving up trying to like Jpop, and was mad over Pete Doherty, I actually wrote him a fan-mail. (HAHAAA, this is an ultimate confession). I made up my mind that music does not equal to good looking musicians. Good looks don’t usually make good music, (but some men are just perfect
)
3. I fell for John Mayer as soon as I saw Say on tv. It made me cry -_-
4. 2008 was no doubt the year of coincidences, and probably miracles for myself too. Makes it different than previous years.
5. I enrolled myself into a tuition centre with 40 other teenagers studying at the same time with me, and decided I liked it better than previous private classes I had myself in for.
6. I got myself stress attacks the night before each trials exam paper and spent 10 minutes plus crying and trying to calm myself down.
7. I realised I could be broken apart so easily, and I’m not very much stress-proof.
8. I quit debating after a year of doing it non-stop.
9. I slept in class for the first time (hey, I’m a goodie okay!
)
10. I had a chat with the Principal who wanted to convince us to continue debates! And I have no idea, why this is here but hey, during primary I had a chat with the Principal and nearly got my name blacklisted in the discipline book, so I’ve changed
![]()
11. I’ve learned the people I could really rely on, and that I owe my life to.
12. I liked a guy (no dumbo, this is not the first), but couldn’t figure out the reason why at all (this is a first).
13. I gave up convincing people that I do not have bad taste in men and the way the look. I guess I like ugly men, hahahah! That doesn’t sound so right.
14. I met up and hung out with my 5-years Msn bestbud and my bestfriend thinks so fondly of him, HAHA.
15. I got myself hooked on Youtube (definitely a first).
16. I spent my birthday at a place I wasn’t familiar of, doing random things with close friends that I don’t expect (except Najwa), and new friends I’m not close to at all.
17. I got myself confused and made others confused as well.
18. I did many things I would never do.
19. I managed to get everything I wanted and luck was on my side at this period of time.
20. I lost a lot of things.
21. I had contact lenses then decided they’re too much hassle to be worn.
22. I got myself a planner which I update regularly.
23. I sat for SPM.
24. I spent 20ringgit on phonecalls everyday for nearly 2 weeks.
25. I used a lot of people and karma is hitting on me still.
26. I messed around with faith.
27. I got way more independant.
28. I don’t make plans and do things randomly instead.
29. I studied hard at certain periods.
30. I got myself conviced but I was also wrong.
31. For the first, I realised I do not have the answer to all of life’s problems.
32. I got rid of half my ego. Okay, maybe just a quarter.
33. I organised a couple of events and realised that I could after all organise things. Just not myself.
34. I failed a subject in school for the first and cried to it so much.
35. I cursed so much at one point when I was pissed at how things were.
36. I decided to not care so much of what others say.
37. I sprained my leg for the first time, twice!
38. I developed peptic ulcer and chronic gastric illness.
39. I made up random coversation with people.
40. I got more bimbotic, is that even a word?
41. I made a fool of myself too often but decided that I have many other things to worry about.
42. I learned that people should learn to accept others and themselves just the way things are.
43. I realised how much I really care about my siblings.
44. I realised how vulnerable I am.
45. I got to know that people can turn out to be exactly what you think they never would be.
46. I trusted people less, and this is good because I put too much trust on people and too easily.
47. I realised that I have dreams too big and they require risks but still have yet to figure out if risking is a good thing.
48. I headed to Klcc for 3 days in a row and got Klcc labeled as home for me by my friends.
49. I realised how things could go away in just a blink of an eye.
50. I got to learn the hard way that you don’t know what you have until you actually lose them.
