2016 - Here I Come!!!!

Another year has come to an end and a new year has begun. How fast time flies. 2015 felt like it has gone by in the blink of an eye.

2015 started off as a year of many "wants". I wanted a lot of things to get better for me and I really can't complain about how the year turned out. So that left me wondering about what to anticipate for 2016. I have been asking myself, what do I want to achieve in 2016? Which aspect of my life do I want to see an improvement or change in? I could only think of one - my relationship status! Don't get me wrong, I would still rather stay single than settle for someone who is not right for me but I have always been more of a relationship person than a casual dating kinda girl. So I ponder my fate and try to figure out my chances of that happening. At this age it is getting harder and harder to meet people around my age group who are neither married nor attached. Also, having dated plenty of Asian men here, I am beginning to draw the conclusion that I don't click as well with them as opposed to Asian men who were born and raised in a western country. I know this may sound absurd to some, but it is true. Asian men here tend to be more chauvinistic and would still much rather prefer their women to be on the submissive end. Oh well, let's see what 2016 has in store for me on the relationship front.

What are my resolutions for the year? Or rather what do I hope to accomplish this year? Here is my WIP list :-

• Visit USA (specifically New York! New  York!)
• Spend less, save more
• Be Happy!
• Don't sweat the small stuff

Let's see how I fare as the year progresses.....

Side note : I actually started this blogpost in the first week of January 2016 but was so busy with work that I didn't have time to complete my thoughts and finish it....and before you know it February has crept up on me! See what I mean? Time really does fly!

Officially 36

So I officially turned 36 on Sunday, 15 November 2015. It was a weekend filled with celebrations which more or less kicked off on Thursday. I am truly blessed to have had so many people who celebrated this occasion with me..:)

So now that the celebrations are over and things have settled down, I guess it's time to reflect for a bit. The saying goes "One year older, one year wiser". Hmmm...if I wonder if that rings true for me. In some ways I guess it does. I have gotten wiser about life but there is still so much more for me to learn.

Apart from starting a new job, it has been a relatively uneventful year for me, but it has definitely been a more positive year. I am in a good place in my life and am looking forward to what the coming year will bring.

I may not have achieved all my goals or be where I thought I would be but, such is life right? We just have to go with the flow and learn not to let things get you down. So here is me looking forward to another great year. Great things may not happen but how the year turns out is all up to me, right?

Live, Laugh, Love

How time flies. Just realised that it has been awhile since I last updated my blog. Work has been so busy lately. Between that and juggling my fashion blog, I barely have time to update this one.

November is upon us. In 10 days' I will turn 36 (shudder), but age is just a number, right? Truth be told I am in a better place this year than I was a year ago. I think I was kinda lost last year after what was a not so great year. But I have grown so much over the past year and my old self is back - better than ever. I have my faith back and hope grows eternal...:) I guess the saying is true - one year older, one year wiser.

To  mark this milestone and to serve as a reminder to myself to never get lost, I got myself my third ink.

This is my new happy song. It has been playing over and over and over again on my player!!! Loving it!!! It makes me wanna grooveeeee.....

We have Graduated!

Phew! We have graduated from our CrossFit starter course! One gruelling month of classes held twice a week, but it was fun. There were plenty of aches and sores and complains from us each day after class but we still kept going back for more and we will continue to go back for more! We are signing up for the 3 months membership - call us suckers for pain but, oh well!

Fashion & Style Blog

I FINALLY launched my fashion & style blog. After much hard work and plenty of delays (due to things picking up at work), I got it done and it is now up and running. I don't know if it will take off or not but it is something that I love doing so at least I get satisfaction from that...:)

If you are into fashion or just need some fashion and style tips, you can check out my blog at Your Style Concierge. Hope you like it! You can also follow me on Instragram, Pinterest, Tumblr & Twitter!

It's My Life!

The last time Bon Jovi held a concert in Malaysia was 20 years ago! After making me wait THAT long for another concert they finally performed in Stadium Merdeka on 19th September 2015.

At 53 years old, Mr. Jon Bon Jovi is still looking pretty damn good! The band did a great job of engaging the crowd. Those at the VVIP and VIP section were definitely rocking away to their songs. Unfortunately the area where I was at, the crowd mostly sat throughout the whole concert only chiming in to sing to the more familiar tunes of Living on a Prayer and It's My Life. I, of course, was having none of that! I stood by the railings at the stand and was singing to every single song of theirs!

He did require more effort to hit the higher notes in some of his songs though, and songs like Always and I'll Be There For You was completely left out ot his concert set-list but all in all the concert was awesome!!! How can it not be? It is Bon Jovi after all!! ROCK ON \m/
