And after a year of HIATUS, the #HerYearlyGoodbye series is back.
To be very very honest, 2019 was filled with so many ups rather than downs and I had plenty of great experiences, but I just couldn't bring myself to write things out.
Not sure why but who knows one day that particular post will be posted with a backdated date.
Anyway.
Here we are in 2020.
It's the end of the decade that we are in.
2011 was one of the best years of my life, followed by 2017/19 perhaps? Notice the similarity of the odd number years - I think I have mentioned before in one of the goodbye series posts for the good years and the bad but surprisingly, 2020 was really really good for me.
Of coz, it didn't start off super smooth - plus, with Covid-19 in place and the whole nation kind of shut down along with the rest of the world, going into "sleep-mode". I can't help but wonder how was SARS like in 2003. If technology was this advanced and if our parents and relatives had financial support from the government.
Nonetheless, some highlights of 2020 coming up in photos form - WARNING: a lot of selfies.
HAHAHAH.
First BFF Meet-Up of 2020 - ate pasta and walked the dog with Domo also
Selfie! Before the window with good lighting HAHA.
My one and only overseas trip prior to the travel ban - to the land of chicken joy - THE PHILIPPINES!
The pink baby went with me, and whenever Pink baby travels overseas, Wallace will always be there!
Welcome to Manila, MABUHAY!
In Manila, Philippines for the 24th Asian Television Awards - my wonderful artistes Wallace & Ase (for the very first time!) hosted the show!
I met one of my favourite Thai Directors and well, it was eventful because, after a good 42 years, the TAAL Volcano decided to erupt while we were all in Manila for the last day of ATA.
Many flights were cancelled and delayed :(
However, Wallace and I decided to stay for another day to do some sight-seeing hence we avoided the horrible flight delay.
We even got Jollibee when the flight had to delay for another hour which wasn't seen in the previous delays amongst our colleagues.
PS: The spicy chicken joy in Manila is like chicken added with chili padi; DAMN SPICY!
Pink baby and I selfie at the airport prior to returning back to Singapore
I went.... PINK. Bleached my hair for the second time in my life only to have it so much drier and hence...
I chopped it off.
Looks healthy but it was pretty frizzy and dry afterwards when I used the hot curling iron on the seemingly wet hair (from product spray to create airy curls) - and that's when I realised that my hair got fried.
We meet friends coincidentally everywhere
Last staycation prior to Covid-19 - with the 38 Rabbits HAHA
This was the part where I did Keratin Hair Treatment at Infinity Hair Salon at Far East Plaza to save my frizzy hair - it was SO PAINFUL to comb through but girl over here has like a high threshold for pain.
Birthday Treat from Sasa - machiam æ’‘æ»äº† drank so much collagen soup
Bouquet of flowers from the BFF for my birthday - I cried!
To everyone who made my birthday spent in Covid-19's CB better
The last gift which came to my door at 11:30PM hahahaha from my 38 Rabbit Sisters
A note of reminder from HDL which translates to:
- If you're hungry just eat, tired just rest, remember that there's someone who cares for you!
I did two scrapbooks this year however almost no stationary shops were opened hence.. I DIY-ed my own glue stick from Corn Starch. LOL.
Special Deliveries from my loved ones - thank you!
Shuxingxing and Nanazi were part of my amazing 2020 too.
I decided to... CUT BANGS. Back to 2010 LOL.
#Throwback
I saw a double rainbow on the first weekend where CB was lifted.
My... third time at Jewel? Where the waterfall was flowing.
Birthday cake from Wallace!
Made.. a wish.
The Dyson Air Wrap really made a difference in my Hair!

A day at Everton
Met meimei again at BFF's house - she made lunch!
Orientation day make-up - and I had shorter fringe this time round!
The secret was out of the bag HAHA. - I am back.
Met the Baobei after a good 4 years!
Solo Staycation before school started - can I just comment on One Farrer Hotel & Spa's service? Their staff Jodie over at the Lounge was so nice, polite and attentive.
She remembers her guests' names by heart and she's very genuine - I always enjoy meeting great people like her, it just brightens up the entire hotel industry so I will definitely be back again to stay at One Farrer!
The Skyline Studio was amazing - and I loved the bathroom and the view - huge curtains with a good view? Hell yeah!
Covid-19 = no more buffet = weird servings, I tried my best to finish whatever I could
BFF sent food to me on the first day of school in the October Semester!
Studying in the office also meant I needed my LiHO fix
Bought the iPad Air for my studies with my hard earned money
Fabro again
I name this the best look of 2020 - the hair and the face WITHOUT EYELASH EXTENSIONS?! Nor Contact Lenses. Wew.
With my favourite Roro - she really knows how to pose. I mean, look at this cheeky little puff.
With my Dajie aka Roro & Jiejie's beautiful mummy!
Simpler look - used the 40mm Barrels from Dyson and it seemed to be working finally for the first time, I need a refresher lesson please?
Date Night with R
My favourite cookies from @milkstachesg ! So good and the girls loved them!
With my Poly meimei who taught me how to play among us HAHAHA.
After colouring, cutting and treatment from my favourite stylist Erwin from Infinity Hair Salon at FEP. If you wanna get him to fix your hair just drop me an IG DM and I can introduce you with a discount!
My favourite top that was taken off shelves from Taobao... Before I could buy the other colours....
Covid-19 meant no more testers and this was one of the best methods to try lipsticks - oh well. That being said 2020 has been a year of great skincare and self-care and one of my go-to boutiques for Laneige is the Bugis one where their staff, Kathlyn is so good and detailed when it comes to the recommendation of products.
