Today is
the last 2 days of 2015. Due to the fact that I’m going back to Penang tomorrow
which probably will be busy, therefore, I decided to write my annual review one
day ahead.
The year
2015 in general is a transitional year to me. Another word to it would be a
year of ‘waiting’.
I started
to work, yet there weren’t many things for me to handle, due to the current
economy issue.
Next, it is
also a year of waiting for better opportunities for both of us, along with lots
of uncertainty that yet to solve even at the present moment.
Nonetheless,
life goes on. It would be better for us to cherish and appreciate the wonderful
moment that we had, instead of worrying for the unsureness that isn’t in our
hands.
And so let’s
begin by checking my 2015 resolution that I made in the beginning of the year.
1.Learn as much things as possible in
my current company
[Still learning, but to be honest not
much]
2.Use my spare time to improve my
Japanese in order for me to pass JLPT N1 this July. [Passed!]
3.Improve my English and those related
to GRE.
[Still learning.]
4.Improve EQ and personalities by
reading self-help books. [Did
read books but not sure whether are there any improvement or not…]
5.Be grateful and nice towards those
who cares and loves me.
[Perhaps, I did…]
6.Stay healthy by eating healthy and
lose 5 kg throughout the year. [Oops, almost no progress at all!!]
7.Savings for rainy day.
[Yup, and continues it will...]
Woah! It seems that I didn’t achieve much of my New Year’s
resolution… That’s really too bad, but I guess those resolutions are quite
subjective and also take longer time to achieve. Probably, next year I’ll make
a more objective resolution list~
January: Left Penang and starts a new year
February: Chinese New Year meeting with parents in KL.
Couldn’t get back to Penang, was quite depressed.
March: 1st Blood Donation in Singapore but
failed. Body was too weak and couldn’t stand it. Cousin’s wedding and managed
to meet mom.
April: Got confirmed at work.Master’s graduation, finally!
May ~ June: Nothing special.
July: Took JLPT N1 Exam and got infected by the pneumonia
disease .
August: Joined Japanese Speaking Club and also attended
Singapore Japanese Summer Festival ( but not as interesting as Penang’s)
September: Ordinary days.
October: 27th Birthday (one more year older =_=).
Raised.
November: Travel to Taiwan and had a wonderful time there.
December: Unknown giddiness attack. Changing of job scope. Christmas
and 31st December going home.
In general, year 2015 is an ordinary year for me with some
good and some bad. As everything happened for a reason, let’s be grateful and
embrace the things that we have and hope for a better 2016. And also it seems
that I need to take care of my health too!!
Thank you 2015 and thank you very much for those who
accompanied me throughout the year <3 p="">
Finally this year is going to an end, and let’s
the show begin >>>
The Best Movie of 2015
-Theory of Everything –
This is my favourite of this year, plot is
touching, get acting (especially Eddie Redmayne), beautiful scenery and
wonderful music. This is the only movie review that I wrote in my blog.
The Best Drama of 2015
-天皇の料理番-
This drama is touching indeed. You’ll cry after
watching every episode. Wonderful acting too (especially 黒木華と鈴木亮平). However, the last
episode was a bit too controversial as non-Japanese audiences, people will
think the other way round.
Favourite Actor of 2015
-Eddie Redmayne-
He’s good in acting, British (lovely accent)
and cute too. Although, I don’t really obsess with him, but I guess he is still
my favourite of the year.
Favourite Actresses of 2015
Same as last year, this year I got a couple of
favourite too.
-林依晨-
Same
as previous year, she’s still one of my favourite.
-石原さとみ-
She’s almost the same height as me, she’s hard
working and she’s cute too. Not to mention she is nominated as the 19th
beauty of the world.
-Michelle Dockery-
Can’t say that she’s very beautiful, but surely
she’s very attractive. I like how she portraits Lady Mary in Downton Abbey, so
elegant and full of poise.
-Moon Geun Young-
One of my favourite throughout the year,
although I don’t really like her drama but you just can’t hate her. And she’s
growing to become more elegant too.
-Lee Young Ae-
She is no longer young, but she definitely has
the elegance temperament.
Favourite
Couples of 2015
-Stephen
Hawking and Jane Wilde from the Theory of Everything-
Although
they got divorce but their love story is still very touching and beautiful. I
like how Eddie Redmayne and Felicity Jones portrait these 2 person.
-Ilya
and Gaby from the Man from U.N.C.L.E-
There
happens to be a few ‘ship’ in this movie, but I like these 2 the most. It is
quite funny seeing Gaby teasing and making fun of Ilya.
Best
books of 2015
I
read 44 new books this year. Not too much, but a new record for myself~ throughout
the year I got a few favourite but the best 2 are:
-The
Sense of Ending by Julian Barnes-
This
is a short story but full of suspense and not to mention some philosophy in it
too. You’ll get a lot of surprise until the end. And I’m glad that they finally
made a film based on this book and probably will release next year 2016.
-凍りついたの香りby小川洋子-
Because of Kindle, I read a lot of Ogawa’s
books this year. And this is my favourite one. It is a story about how the
narrator preserves her boyfriend’s memories after his death. The storyline is
simple but the author describes it very well and beautifully.
//Music
Section//
Best
Artist of 2015
-一青窈-
The same as last year.
Perhaps, it was due to the fact that I didn’t listen much of music this year. I
especially like her歌窈曲, I listened to it when I was in Taiwan and it made me get the feeling of
Taiwan is the Showa period of Japan.
Best MV of 2015
-Sugar by Maroon 5-
Who wouldn’t like this
MV? It’s so cool and the tune is catchy too.
Best Album of 2015
-望.不忘春風 by范宗沛/ 鄧雨賢-
Beautiful classical
Taiwanese music. Lovely and calm.
Top 10 Songs of 2015
-恋唄 by手島葵
-Birthday by阿部芙蓉美
-Sugar by Maroon 5
-Relax in the city by Perfume
-Egg by 木村カエラ
-あなたに恋をしてみました by chay
-STAR TRAIN by Perfume
-長く短い祭 by 椎名林檎
-小幸運 by田馥甄
-ソメイヨシノby 平原綾香
Well that's all for my 2015~ Hopefully 2016
will be another good year!
And of course I’m getting more and more elegant
