Adjay77’s Memories…

The Year is slowly coming to a close and One finally begins to retrospect what has been happening to One self for the past year. Has it been a productive one or have I just go through life one day at a time? Just like my motto which I have followed for the past two years. …Carpé Diém… Seize The Moment. Live For Today. But the question would be, what did I just ‘Lived’ for? What actually did
These are just SOME of the things that are going through my mind right now as I sit in front of my office iMac and typing out this Blog for one and all to see. I guess I want to share with all you people out there my whole year (or whatever that I remember of it).
…
January
… Still on Holiday after finishing (finally) my Degree program at LimKokWing University Institute Of Creative Technology, Cyberjaya which was in December. Damn, did I put on weight!
…
February
… Was called back from Miri to attend my Graduation Ceremony, on which was held on the LimKokWing campus. My parents and my Uncle and Aunty (whom I stayed with close for 4 years here in KL) attended. *Sigh* Blank sheet or rolled up paper. But at least the graduate group photo shoot was excellent. I can actually see my face behind one of the Deans that attended!
…
March
… 15th March. Started work in MagicMakers Sdn. Bhd. as a Graphic Designer after close to one month of running around looking for job vacancies. 3 months probation. It was also Trial By Fire. On my appointment on the first week, I had to attend a photo shoot and video record it for Ziana Zain and VONO Slumberland Renewal Event. And from all those images and I had to develop a Video Documentary of the photo shoot. Sorta like a Documentary of the whole entire day.
… Went up for a Genting Highland trip with Irene and her Girlfriends. What can I say? Three girls and a sole guy as bodyguard? The only thing I have to worry about is old perverted geezers ogling at the girls and me being slightly over protective! Sightseeing and good food was also a boon. At least I spent a bit more time with Irene just to help her relax and to forget about her worries.
…
April
… Had a BIG steamboat dinner with friends at Yuen Steamboat Bandar Sunway. If I wasn’t mistaken it was sort of Ex-Press The Play Button get together dinner or something. We ate like there was no tomorrow.
…
May
… Went back to Kuching for a few days for my cousin Azhan’s wedding. My parents flew up from Miri also to attend the wedding. Now that was fun because my whole family was in Kuching where I was born. And slleping in my new grandparents house for the first time after the renovation. Too bad the wedding day was a rainy one.
…
June
… My cousin Firdaus wedding in Pulau Pinang which I couldn’t attend. Was suppose to be a road trip but I was caught up with work I couldn’t go. I heard it was a lot of fun. Crap.
…
July
… Went to Melaka for the Melaka Scooter Competition. It was about a 4 hour ride from Kuala Lumpur to reach Melaka with a couple of stops in between. Stayed in a cheap motel the night before the competition and it was held at the Multimedia University Melaka. It was a scorcher of a day but luckily I didn’t get sun burnt or anything. As usual, there were lots of designs and customize being show cased and it just simply amazes me how far an individual would go to make his or her scooter stand out from the rest!
…
August
…UK Education Fair 2005 which was held at the KL Convention Centre KLCC. Lots of UK colleges and universities put up their booths to promote their respective places. I of course was there to cover the event of Middlesex University and an award ceremony to one of their top students.
…
September
… A crappy month where nothing seems to be going well or right.
…
October
… PaintBall Wars organized by Nicholas Chhan a.k.a. XEOS, and his Celestial Guild which was held at the XPaint Facility in Bukit Jalil . We had so much fun (mixed with a lot of pain)! Bumps and bruised with everything in between! There can be no comparison to being shot and targeted by friends and foes. Heck, I was shot in the face! TWICE! Just the adrenaline rush of rushing into battle trying to win the game at any costs. Of course planning and strategies does come to play, but in the end it was pure dumb luck and persistence that could turn the tide for the winners and the losers. But we all had fun. I had bruised ribs for a month to remind me of how much fun I had! Never do a Superman dive on hard ground with protruding tree roots…
… MagicMakers dinner at Pizza Italia Uno in USJ Taipan. It was a wonderful dinner with great food and excellent atmosphere. I had the meatball Fettucini which was delicious. But a word of advice. Never, EVER, eat a spoonful of Olives. I ate it on a dare and I have regretted that decision ever since…
…
November
… had a LONG Hari Raya holiday. Close to two weeks of fun and relaxation back home in Miri.
… 20th November. ,Dann’s Birthday gathering at Yuen Steamboat. Yuen seems to be a regular party spot for us circle of friends nowadays. Oh and did we eat like a party too! I can never get enough of the place not because of the great food but also because of its reasonable price! After that, we raided Nick’s place for a night of fun and games! Charades, card games, board games, games and DVD’s. And more food and drinks. BANZAI!
… 30th November. 2005 Car Of The Year Award Event where I developed/ handled the Audio Visuals for the event which was held in the LéMeridian Hotel, Kuala Lumpur Central,. The biggest event that I went to this year where you can see the who’s who of the automotive world and Datuks and Ministers. The MC of the the night kind of sucked though…
…
December
… 21st December. Company Christmas Lunch at the Hilton Petaling Jaya.
… 24th December. My Birthday Dinner at Yuen Steamboat at Sunway. We all ate so much we were all feeling Bloated. One of the seven Sins. Gluttony, felt very prominent on that evening!
… 25th December. Dusk Till Dawn Gaming with Best Buds. Tom Yam Dinner at USJ Taipan and the First birthday gift of the Day. A Shuriken Pillow from Yeevon and Dann. That was pretty cool to through around! Now where’s the rest of my presents???
…
Of course, most of the things that has been happening this year I try to take some photo’s as memory. Check out my Photo Album and you can see the pictures of the things that has happened to me this year. I guess this is my Re-cap of 2005. Interesting? Productive? I don’t know. What I know is that it wasn’t so boring that I had to beat my head on the wall for a thrill! All I know is I had quite a fun and eventful year with friends and family. What else can I say?
