We had absolutely no plans for today so we just headed to town early and decided to walk around for a bit.
Bought super ex chocolates just because it was going to be the New Year in a few hours. Lol. Okay no I really wanted to try if they were that good so JP got them for me. They really are delicious.
Went over to Dempsey Hill in the evening to avoid the crowd in town. Thank goodness, we managed to get seats in P.S Cafe for dinner despite not making any reservations.
The food was pretty good but I think the ambience and the festive mood made everything taste 10x better anyway.
Took our time to explore Dempsey because…we were going to be stuck there cus we had no idea where to go to spend out countdown.
Posed for pictures here and got bitten by lots of mozzies :(
And lo and behold, we found this super chio art gallery that was closed but had its light on.
WARNING: Photo vomit of shameless posing
The "photoshoot" started out serious.
This turned out nicer than I thought.
Anyway, in the midst of all the photo - taking, the countdown actually started and that was how we ushered in the new year. Lol. We were actually having loads of fun though. Thank you for always being so retarded in public with me.
2014 had been one hell of an awesome year for me. The best year in my life so far.
It'll honestly take a lot a lot to top this year.
Being part of a dance production, I finally got the chance to live out my passion on a bigger stage. I honestly didn't think I would make it this far when I first decided to YOLO and took up dance classes. Another milestone in this journey was created, and I look forward to many more.
I'd also finally finally finally finished my studies. I still remember all those years in Primary and Secondary School where I would wish I could grow up faster just so I will no longer have to do anymore homework or burn the midnight oil for exams. The day is finally here and as afraid as I still am, I'm pretty sure a whole new world awaits me as I step into society. I'm pretty excited for the adventures that awaits me as I move on to the next chapter in life.
The most amazing thing that happened this year was that I got to travel to both Taiwan and Japan, 2 of the travel destinations I've always wanted to go to so badly. The memories I had there were definitely irreplaceable, something I will remember for a long long time. I had so much fun, and pretty much everything was an eye-opener. It was also the first time I actually travelled to such a country of such distance without any supervision. I can't really put into words how much these 2 travels meant to me. They're probably the most precious memories I will ever have of us.
And of course, I turned 21. Officially entering adulthood and seeing so many people who are willing to celebrate this joy with me was…a pleasant surprise. Ever since a certain age, I've always been socially awkward and was never a fan of taking the initiative to make new friends. Although I'm not sure how long my friendship with everyone of you who came will last, but I'm very thankful that at a point in my life, I've had friends like you all. I appreciate the handwritten cards a lot and all your words were so touching I almost cried. Almost. The whole event also showed me how much I mattered to my parents and my sister and I really am grateful they are my family.
The Tokyo trip, being my birthday trip, also meant a whole lot. It encompassed so much meaning within and I will never ever forget how special you made it for me.
2014 had been such a special and meaningful year.
It will always hold an important place in my heart.

2014 had been nothing short of amazing, but I'll always believe, my reality in the future will one day, be better.
Things change, people move on.
Chapter Closed.
