Merry Christmas everyone and wishing all of you a happy new year!
After being MIA for practically most of the year, it's good to be back and blogging again!
2015 is such an exciting year for me, but a hectic one nonetheless.

I haven't really been that productive with my blogging activities for the past few months. Hmm.. Rephrasing that.
I haven't really been that productive with my blogging activities since I entered University.
I posted an update on "My Blogger Diary", and worked on a few drafts for the upcoming book tour events. Also, I participated in my very first Stacking the Shelves meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews!
Just re-reading some of my favourite books for Christmas! Nothing like a good romance to keep you warm at night.
And totally loving this book that my uncle gifted me for Christmas. Considering I grew up exposed to ancient Chinese culture, this book stood out for me.
I'm currently on my Christmas break and will be starting my internship this coming January for a duration of 6 months! I'm graduating in November 2016 and is thinking of going to Singapore or Germany for work (such vast difference). I also thought of volunteering at the vet clinic near my house before starting, well, life. However, those are just future thoughts. As a wrap up of my personal life in 2015, I had:
My first ever published hardcover - sort of |
Published my final year thesis! This was such an achievement because I spent 3 months of hardwork and sleepless nights to complete this 80 pages hardcover report on my final year project, not to mention hours camping in the sunless lab performing experiments and dealing with high-end instruments. #lifeofascientist
I recently turned 21 and my parents made me this cool Christmas-themed muffin cake!
My friends had also organized a cool birthday bash for me with loads of barbeque and a pool side party! Couldn't be more grateful to have such great friends!
I also travelled around Europe for a whole month, and it was such a dream come true!
Looking forward to a wonderful 2016! Merry Christmas and wish you guys all the same!

Happy belated birthday ! And congratulations on your thesis. You talk about procrastination, but your life seems to be filled to the hilt with activities, so enjoy ;)
ReplyDeleteHaha! I did have a lot of activities going on but unfortunately it was not around the blogosphere :/ Want to change that next year though!

ReplyDeleteThank you for the nomination! It really made my day! :) Just checked out your post!
DeleteHappy birthday! Congrats on getting that final year thesis done. That is quite an accomplishment. It is completely understandable and it shows good judgment on your part that you have been less active since entering university.
ReplyDeleteI have Skyward to read. I liked the first in that series a lot! Happy reading!
It definitely is! It was a lot of sweat and hard work and it's hard to juggle with the insane workload. And thank you for the wish! :D
DeleteI hope you like the other books in the series too, book 2 was my favourite! :) Thanks for stopping by!

DeleteCongrats on nearly being done with your schooling! I remember that feeling well! Its exciting and nerve wracking-trying to figure out what to do with your life! Happy belated birthday as well! My Sunday Post
ReplyDeleteThank you! I had mixed feeling for graduation, eager to get into the working world and sad to leave all the good memories behind. Exactly as what you thought :) Thanks for the birthday wishes and for stopping by my blog! :)
DeleteLooks like you had an amazing year and like you've got an amazing one coming up! Plus, happy birthday! I'm not sure I got much reading done at all when I was in college and I know blogging (if it'd been a thing then) wouldn't have happened at all so I'm seriously impressed. Have a fantastic week and a happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteIt was a great one indeed, which makes leaving college much more harder. Thank you for the birthday wish! Haha, it was rather hard to juggle between all those workload and assignments, but it was possible every now and then :P Thank you and same goes to you! Thank you for visiting my blog!
DeleteUniversity keeps you busy! Happy belated birthday, looks like you had fun. Welcome back, and happy (almost) New Year!
ReplyDeleteThat couldn't be any truer! Thank you, I had a fun year indeed! Hoping to stick around for real this time and happy new year to you too!
DeleteNatasha, such good things are happening in your life! I wish I had taken the travel abroad opportunities, but I was a worrier. I hope 2016 is as good to you as 2015 was!
ReplyDeleteI wish the same for you too and hope you have the chance and opportunities to travel around someday :)

Happy birthday! It seems like 2015 was your year. I hope 2016 goes just as well, if not better. Congratulations on finishing your thesis! It's wonderful that it's published.
