2011 Reflection
2012. It had been quite a journey. 2011 was a year filled with challenging positivism. It was thrilling yet adventuring. Overall, I've learned a lot from 2011. All the challenges and risks I decided to take on. It all happened in 2011. And now, here I am, reflecting on the fruitful journey I had went through, chronologically.  


  • Attempted Flash animation for the first time. Tedious task. 


  • Attempted Multimedia software application for the first time. Another tedious one.

  • Wrote my very own documentary script on the evolution of Malaysian Animation. I wanted to do something else but I mistaken the assignment's scope. Slight regret there. 
  • Wrote our very own movie script entitled "A Scripted Story". The romance genre is never my forte. Almost all the romance movies I've watched are so cliche I decided to hush it away. A great challenge to come out with something different yet interesting. But I'm quite proud of myself. The outcome was pretty awesome and I started to like the story I created ;)
  • Created my very own website surrounding the theme of natural disaster - tsunami. Water is my biggest fear. But I wanted tsunami because the moment I saw the title, I know I can create something beautiful from it. And I did. Very proud of my own underwater-themed website ;)
  • Being PR Director for our very own Advertising Campaign "Box Story". Creating something creative from the scratch is never easy. Simplicity is the most important yet the most difficult key to obtain. But it was one meaningful project. A huge success had proven a lot of things. Benchmark successfully created? ;) I wanted something contrast from my box to meet the ideas of "journey", "growth", and "outcome". Of course, to combine all those three ideas - in a simple way - through the presentation of a box is never easy. Imagine the numbers of scamps I've thrown away and drawn to get one single approval for myself. 5 out of 7 of my scamps were approved by Ms.N but the toughest decision for me to make was which is the one I wanted to do most. And the outcome? Am very happy with it ;)
  • Internship with Arcis Communications. Am glad I decided to try out PR before anything else. Personally, I think that PR is the combination of practically everything Mass Comm. and Marketing. During my internship period with Arcis, I've learned so much. Practical knowledge is nothing like theoretical knowledge. But of course, there's still room for improvement and I don't intend to stop anytime soon. Life is, after all, a non-ending learning journey. Am still indecisive on whether I will further pursue my career in PR but I will just go with the flow for now and try to learn more about everything before making that very important decision. 
  • Graduated from Diploma (Mass Communication). I've managed to grab the one honor I had been hoping to bag. The honor of being the best student for my entire course. Nothing beats being the best of what you like to do best. I personally like the title a lot and it was such a huge relief the find out that whatever I've done had produced its very juicy fruits. A beautiful full stop for my Diploma and college life - An honored title and a CGPA of 3.97. Proud :')
  • Double invasion to Melaka with the unusual gang. Every holiday, we will never stop thinking of where we will be going for our short break. But for me, it doesn't matter where; what matters is who you are going with. These people had been enduring my attitude; been there for me during my worst times; and had always been the first to listen to all my problems while giving me a constant pat on the shoulder. I've got no better words to express how grateful I am to have them in my life. Thank you :')
  • Enrolled in University of Wollongong- Bachelor of Communication and Media Studies. This was a lightning fast decision I made. But who wouldn't considering the fact that the best decision had been placed right in front of you? I love Communications and Media. I'm never going to change to another course just because people say they are so-called "better". Let me define "better" for myself :) Degree was a whole new chapter of my life. I'm enjoying everything I'm learning. A new chapter, and a new aim. There are always goals for me to reach. And there's only one way to reach those goals :) When the results of my first degree semester was released, my heart literally skipped a few beats. Looking at the results, I felt that perhaps the decision for me to take all the risks was right after all. The sole idea of "just go with what your heart tells you" is really strong. I know myself well. I will never ever be able to do something I'm against with. The huge risks I've took during my first semester of degree had proven a lot to me. A heavy stone was lifted from my heart and I'm now very relieved :) Can't wait for the next semester.
  • Organized Shell FuelSave Day. First ever corporate-related campaign I've co-organized in a team of 4 (and of course, a whole bunch of helpful juniors!). Gained a lot from it as well, in terms of every single angle you can come out with. But the only thing that surprised me was my ability to juggle well between my studies and this project. I'm still proud of myself :)
  • Saw Shimokawa Mikuni and Ceui live in Malaysia. Right before my eyes. Can't believe my luck. Am hoping for more of these chances to come! :)
Of course, there are so many notable things that had happened in the year of 2011. It was one of the most happening year in my life. College - Internship - Degree. And a lot of perfect yet surprised moments in between. It was a wonderful year. 2012. I'm definite that I will be experiencing more wonderful moments yet again. 

HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYONE! ;)
