Tis the Season to be Jolly!

It’s Christmas jolly time again!

I must’ve been a rather good girl this year, so much so that I was showered with lotsa love and gifts for this xmas (also for my birthday last month).
I feel truly blessed and thankful, for a rather good end to this year which I can’t wait to get over and done with (maybe another post on my thoughts with regards to 2015).

Million thanks to all my gifters! I received many Gudetama items too! *throws confetti*

.my.big.3-0.

So, I’ve officially joined the gang of big 3-0s 2 days back. Many thoughts going through my mind as I crossed the line into this phase of my life.

The past couple of years hadn’t been easy. Shitty things happen when I least expected. People come and go. Lessons learned. I try again and again. And I see things/people more clearly now. I’ve grown to know better, what/who matters and what/who doesn’t. Well, how many 30 years will we have in our life right?

I’m blessed and thankful to have a small group of people who stood by me and love me for who I am, who trust and don’t judge me. (Of ‘cos it’ll be even better if a ‘boyfriend’ is added to this small group too haha..)

Here’s how fortunate I am during this ‘transition’ period. (Warning: pictures of gorgeous babes and hunks and prezzies coming up!)

World peace!
