Well, the previous 2 posts were about books and movies and dramas I have had the chance to enjoy in 2019. Now, for this, I just want to conclude things I suppose...? Geez, I'm finding reasons to update.
So, I read 8 books in 2019. Hahaha. What a declined from... years ago. I don't think I did well in 2018 too. Oh well. My movie/drama list were much better. Haha. I spent more time on my phone in 2019 so... neglecting my readings.
Going through 2019, see if I can remember any interesting happenings through the year.
Final installment of How to train your dragon series came out at around January, and we all went crazy with multiple watches in cinemas. Got the chance to watch it in IMAX in Malaysia too. SOOO HAPPY. Was damn exicited at that time, despite having watched it a few times in NZ already. Lol.
I know that I bought my current phone somewhere in March. It's a OPPO R15Pro, Nebula purple colour I think? Can't really remember the name. Well, uptill now, I don't have much complain about it yet. I adopted the idea of changing phones within 2 years, to avoid having said phone when dead suddenly on me. I don't want to experience another Samsung Galaxy SII episode again. That was a nightmare. I lost all my South Island trip photos and my sis's graduation photos as well. Urgh. Same situation will go for my laptop too. Not going to be using it long, unless I bought a really expensive one that worth keeping long. The one we bought from Kuching, bland. I mean, it looked the same as every laptop on display in the store. I want a Dell XPS, but what did the salesman say? It's not much different bla bla and more expensive. I know it's more expensive, but with the functions it has, I think it is reasonable. But then, they don't have any stock on hand, if I want one, they will need to order it. What the heck. I might as well just get one from NZ. They always have stock unless I want it customised. Geez. So in the end, we get a bland looking laptop from Acer. It looked totally the same as the one sis's is using. I sometimes mistook it. Only the stickers on the keyboard area are differerent. So frustrating! And I bought antivirus for my laptop too. Finally. Or else just relying on the accompanied software, I don't think it was enough.
Something sad happened somewhere in March. Mass shooting. Where? In FREAKING NEW ZEALAND. And of all places, CHRISTCHURCH. What is wrong with this people?!!! Condolences to all the people involved. I was so damn happy that the Prime Minister passed the gun control bill in NZ. It was so fast that it shook the whole world. I applaud the PM for this. My wording might be abit weird, but you get the idea what I am saying.
Somewhere in April, we got MAP678. Yay. Father was with us in NZ.
In May, Bulbasaur was so damn cute! My first time doing Medical Check in NZ, after all this year. And wow, the speed was so fast! Just about 2 hours? Every procedure done. Or maybe a bit less than that. Not like in Kuching, OMG. Need to arrive there so early in the morning before the clinic opens and queue for it. Even though we have made an appointment for it. Well, in NZ, I think they have like only a few slots available each day for it, so everything is faster. And once again, I experienced the lightheaded, and almost blackout. I hate doing blood test. Ah! I remembered this. Weeks later, or so, I went back again for another blood test. Geeezzzz. That time round, I was prepared for it. The first time I wasn't expected that, so maybe I got a bit panic when I left the room. What with the sudden black patches I kept seeing everywhere. Took me quite sometime to recover in the Sitting Area.
I think it was somewhere in May, I went into a small Hyun Bin frenzy mode. I tore every part of weibo and so to look for his movies. Of all, I like the 4 movies I watched multiple times of. The Swindlers, Confidential Assignment, Rampant, and The Negotiation. I was in awe for Confidential Assignment. Man! The man could hit and punch. It was so enjoyable to watch him hit stuffs. Same for Rampant. He's cutting zombie with that big blade. And maybe he was the main actor, he's so un-killable. Hahahahahaha. For The Negotiation, wow. A villain. GOOOOD.
June... July... August...
SEPTEMBER. Huh?? Did anything happened in September? No...?
Ok, October. Charles's Wedding!! Congratulations once again! Even though none of you are reading this. Hahaha. We went Australia for this. And followed by a small trip to Gold Coast. :)
By the way, I found peanut butter in NZ!! I am ignoring all the other peanut butter I saw in the supermarket. They are tasteless. I found this peanut butter that actually tasted something and nice! Checked the label, Made in USA. Hahahahaha!!!!
November??? Can't remember..
December...Oh well. I can't remember much. HAhahahahaha
All around the year, I could just recalled that, we went to quite a number of places to try new food. We went for Crepes, we went for Japanese restaurants we never been before. And the only new ones I enjoyed immensely was tomi. THE FOOD WAS SO DELICIOUS.
Some colleagues left for home etc. Some new trainees. Some useless colleagues.
Most important of all, I have been shipping 00Q so hard this year. OMG. The new 007 movie is coming out too!!!
I started playing Switch more towards the end of the year. We have now Sypro, Pokemon Shield, Ni no Kuni, Zelda, Pokemon Evee, Dawn of the New Riders...etc.
And on the sad note, ARASHI is going on hiatus at the end of 2020. This they announced beginning of the year in 2019. ..This.. uptill now I am still frustrated and upset. For their 20th anniversary, they tried lots of things. They opened up social media accounts. Twitter, YouTube, Weibo and Instagram. I am ignoring tiktok because I don't have one and I find it weird. They are trying to get close to their fans. Furthermore, they released all their singles in digital platforms too! The first group in the company to do this. Their latest release is on digital too! There's no updates whether they will be releasing the CDs not... I want CDs to be honest. I like physical copies. To mark their 20th anniversary, recently they collaborated with Netflix to release a their own documentary. I think I might need some courage to watch that. I can't really deal with seeing frustrated Jun-san. After the announcement, all I want to do is give him a hug and hope for the best for him. He poured so much into this, and like he said, going into hiatus and stopping everything he had been doing all this years, was like killing the thing he love the most with his own hands. I couldn't even begin to imagine how that feels. That was what got me so angry and frustrated.
There goes my mood....
