Honestly speaking, 2019 was a trainwreck for me, the nightmares and series of emotions that followed were an emotional roller-coaster. Too many things happened in just 365 days? I was not prepared and barely survived. but here's me at the end of 2020, writing about the things that happened almost two years ago.. hahaha okay. without further or do, let's review our 2019, even though no one cares.
JANUARY
So what actually happened in January 2019? Basically, it is a new year new azam type of thing, so nothing really happened, I simply planned like what I'm going to do in this year (2019), For instance, losing weight, which is ridiculous because it's already 2020 and the only thing i lost in 2019 literally my mind *sigh*. What is more unfair is that i gained weight instead of losing them *cries* I'm doing the opposite of what i azam kan... apa punya perangai la fareez, takpe 2021 kita kurus eh, mampu senyorm jelah. Actually in 2018 i had a plan, which is going to a K-pop concert which I DID!! So, my first concert was BTS: World Tour in Singapore. It was the best time of my life, i have been listening to BTS since I NEED U era and seeing them growing from that phase to one of the biggest Boy Band of all time?! Uh-Mazing! I love them!!!!!!!! So i bought the ticket for around RM1XXX.. it was from a reseller but thank you to her that i got to finally meet my boys! what's funny is that I bought the ticket without telling my mom or dad about going to the concert.... hehehe I'm the type of child like "beli dulu, bagitahu nanti" yes and kids please don't be like that ok, tak elok!
The concert was on 19 January 2019, so I went to Johor a day earlier with my friends Iman and Andrieq who helped me find a place to stay. Shoutout to Iman's acu for letting me and Andrieq stayed at acu's house for two? three days... damn, I forgot already this is why I should have done this storytelling article ke apa ni earlier and not now..... Ah and also I forgot to mention that I bought the standing zone ticket alone! Iman got the seating zone ticket. So, when I arrived at the stadium it was packed with cool Armys hanging around and me being super shy shy cat one follow je Iman ke mana dia pergi. Nak dijadikan cerita, I almost cried when my ticket tak dapat di scan... all because of the ticket punya ink faded, like apo... kayos kan buat la ink tahan lama sikit. So I went into the standing zone alone and it was really far from the stage but it is okay because I got to meet to young girls, they are super friendly and they also went to the concert alone.. COOL RIGHT! I got to see BTS performed live in front of my rabun eyes. After 2-3 songs performed, I managed to get in front of the barricade... I also don't know how but like yeah I was like right in front of the stage seeing Jungkook, Taehyung, Suga, Jin, J-hope, Namjoon and Jimin performing IN FRONT OF ME... kafjsafjkhsajhfgaf. So that is basically how my January in 2019 went. It was AWESOME!!!!

FEBRUARY
Right after BTS' concert in Singapore ended, Blackpink also made a world tour in February for TWO freaking days! and guess what? as a blink myself, I also bought the tickets for the concert for TWO DAYS and both days I got the standing zone one because it is BLACKPINK *it's the obsession for me* hewhewhew, and just like Bts' concert, I went there alone again because later in the stadium you can make more new friends! trust me!.. What's crazier in this concert is that I'm lucky enough to win a send-off ticket, which is basically lambaian kasih kepada BLACKPINK before they hop into the car and straight away go back to their hotel. On the first day, I decided to print out a meme, I made myself *lame* but yeah Lisa from BLACK*F*PINK noticed me.. NOTICED ME.. I was screaming like crazy and she noticed me because of the meme, I'm so thankful that I brought the meme with me! I may sound delusional at this point but I got proofs with me okay, just go on my Instagram's profile and watch my IGTV! I'll try to summarize almost everything in one paragraph I'm sorry for being such a boring person. but just so you know if you already read till here, thank you and love you, continue if you want to!! <3

APRIL
For those who asked, why suddenly April? where's March... sorry but there's nothing interesting happened in March until April. Why? because it is my birthday month!!!! So, just like every other year, no party whatsoever, just went on cafe hopping on my birthday with my besties. They bought me a cake and at least I got to spent times with my besties before all of us parted our ways sebab nak jadi pemegang ijazah kan... perform ya semua. Boringnya April omg.. let's continue to June.
JUNE
After months of happy scenarios. The worst month in 2019 began. On father's day which is on 16 June 2019, I lost someone that meant a lot to me, who raised me and taught me the meaning of life. At the age of 60, my father passed away, leaving my mom, me and my siblings all alone. It was one of my biggest fear of losing one of my parents, never in my life and cross my mind that one day I will have to live without them. The pain was indescribable. What saddens me the most is that my father promised me to send me on UiTM registration day on 21st July, but God loves him more. Seeing my mom handling the pain of losing a husband, the one she shares the bed with for more than a decade really breaks my heart. As a child, the last thing I want to witness is seeing them in pain.
My father will always be my hero, my one and only hero and no one could replace him, even at that age he still got the energy and spirit to work so that he could feed his siblings, my dad is not a rich person, he grew up in a village where when he was in high school he had already started working and supporting his family. Due to his hard work, he finally got a decent job that he truly deserved. thank you to my father I got to grow up and live in a decent home. My dad made that happened, I'm proud of him, love you ayah <3
JULY
In July, nothing interesting happened either but I finally got to start my Uni Life!!!!!!!! I have been waiting for this day for so long. I have always wanted to experience going to class with different coloured outfits and not school uniform hahahaha. I got emotional on my first day in uni since my father passed away just one month before. Thinking back I still want my father to be proud of his last child finally dapat sambung study, but its okay god has better plans for him and for me.
The first week of uni life was really tiring due to the orientation but it was really fun, the seniors there were really friendly and in just a week I have met a lot of great friends there. Even though it was hard for me to adapt the environment there at first, my roommates and friends helped me with that, and the best part of entering this university is that I got to meet with my best friends, my cool squad, Adela, Anis, Dinie, Aiman, Syafiqah, Naimi and Dina. there's more but these 8 people have been with me since day 1 and yes I truly love them.
August and September were filled with a packed schedule of classes and tons of assignments, so there's nothing really to talk about.
OCTOBER
At this point, I think I might have a concert addiction because I went to another concert on the 5th of October. To those wondering what concert, it is the Shawn Mendes World Tour Concert, I was planning to buy the meet and greet ticket but it sold out so freaking fast, I'm not even joking, I thought I was early but gurl I was wrong.... So I went there with my cousins but we got different seating zones. Few of my friends went to the concert too, including Shaff. It was great Shawn's voice was so sedap bagai dibuai mimpi ya.
Moving on, I also went to NOF in Sunway with my bestie, Faizah, it was great but kinda tiring since we bought the regular tickets haha, I did not expect that it would be so packed but again I'm wrong hahahaha..... so yeah it was fun but we only get to enjoy 1-3 things available there, we are planning to go again in 2020 but this COVID-19 ruined everything including pesta bunyi which is on my freaking BIRTHDAY but let's not talk about that here. keep it 2019.
Due to my obsession over Yunalis Zarai, our first beautiful Malaysian singer that got featured on a billboard in Times Square, New York and also my obsession over live concerts. On 25th of October, Pastel Lite launched their new album, Pop Bilik Tidur at The Bee, Publika with an amazing line up such as The Impatient Sisters along with the legendary Francissca Peter and a special performance by Yuna herself !!!! The feeling was surreal when Yuna appeared, she sang some of her songs in her album Rouge flawlessly with her angelic voice, I love love love Yuna so much omg!!!
DECEMBER
I skipped November since it was boring and cliche *blergh*. So, it is finally the last month of 2019, only one month away from 2020, exactly a year ago today, Les'copaque production planned a big event and I got to be one of the stages' emcee, on the first day I was super nervous but it went smoothly as how me and my partner, Iza rehearsed. Being an emcee is not something I'm unfamiliar with but still, it freaks me out every time hehehe. The following days, my partner and I had tons of fun on the stage, we were joking with each other and basically hyping each other up to keep the vibes going and liven up the atmosphere, It was great, the event went well.
Overall, 2019 was a pain in the a** but still there are good memories in it that I will forever cherish. It was great that I got to experience a lot of new things, meeting new friends and went to a lot of concerts! Urgh I hope 2021 will be better for all of us and this COVID-19 can go away already no one wants you... so yeah that's it for this long article, dah macam karangan dah.. tapi time karangan dulu kat sekolah h tak boleh pula tulis panjang macam ni..hahahahha anyways have a great 2020 everyone and i love every each one of you! also sorry for my broken english and also manglish saya hehehehe... and don't forget to always spread kindness.
