❤New Chapter of 龍宝宝❤

A beginning is only the start of a journey to another beginning, a quote that gives me a new life, a new hope, and a new beginning. As the 龍宝宝 of the year, I vowed to work harder to live better. Throughout Year 2011, I had a insignificant experience of life, which taught me to grow up, or should I say it makes me a better person. I would love to erase it from my memory, unless I have lost my memory, these seems to be impossible. Rather than crying over a split milk, it's a valuable lesson that I have learn. 

In Year 2011, it wasn't a good year to me. I've lost my beloved ones, screwed myself up in my education, life seems to be unorganized. Back then, I have no visions and dreams. Not knowing what is my goal and feeling lost as if guided by a blind. I spent my life wasting all my time and effort that I've been working on all these years. I can't tell that I've never regret what I've done because truly it's the worst decision I've ever made in my life. Time flies and it doesn't wait, life still goes on. I can't spend my entire life grieving over the past. All these has taught me to stand up strong and look forward to live in the present and future. One once told me, make peace with the past so that it doesn't spoil my future.

Being ill-treat, I've learn to appreciate ever little happiness that bless my life. Some might not think so, but money definitely can't buy happiness. However, living in a world of materialistic, without money you are nothing for sure.    Somehow, it's all depends on own personal thoughts and perspective. As for me, being independent would be the best option. Still, thanks to Heavenly Papa, I'm blessed with unconditional love by family, friends and the true one. These are the little things that makes me strong enough to stand up again, making all things new. Special thanks to all my beloved friends who tried real hard to cheer and comfort me throughout my hardest time, and not leaving me alone.

Some of the memorable experiences I have is that I was given a chance to try out some photo-shooting. Thanks to my photographer friends. And of course, I get to know some new friends during my freelance jobs, which I eventually enjoyed it very much. Guess doing freelance job has been a part of me to earn some extra pocket money.

*****Having fun being cute*****

*****Wishing on Christmas*****

*****Babes met during PC Fair*****

What that touched my heart is that my dear ex Nottingham-mates that never forget about me. We had a little hang out at The Gardens. Enjoyed every little bits singing and shopping with all of the lovely ones. I feel fortunate enough to be bless by such a wonderful friends. As the saying goes, a real friend is one who walks in while the rest of the world walks out.

*****Love my girls*****

Back then, I was invited by my dear friend, Hanli to join an event called 'Passion for Fashion'. Well, it was my first experience attending event that was held in a club called Rootz. The fashion walk was amazing but... I don't think that anyone would want to wear those outfit on the road. 

*****It's all about drinking and dancing*****

On Christmas, we had a little Christmas gathering dinner among photographer and freelance model at Souled-Out, Mount Kiara. The food is okay but the atmosphere is pretty amazing and comfortable. We had gift exchanged and guess what I've got...hair mask to strengthen and gives shine to my hair.

*****She's the adorable reindeer*****

On the other hand, how can I missed out church on Christmas. Along these years, Christmas production is always based on the stories in the Bible. One of the most unpredictable Christmas production, Chromeheart, based on the world fantasy filled with magic and sorcery. On Christmas eve, I attended the Candle Light service and it's all about the miracle of healing. Truly, God is a mighty God. During the service, people experienced the power of healing. One of the most significant scene is that a half-blind can finally see.

*****Family in Christ*****

Christmas is all about giving and blessing. What count the most is the presence of God and the family members. Being around at church has always been my favorite, a second home while I'm, away from my family. This is where I found peace and love. And look, one of my Christmas present, 365, with a little message written by my beloved Pastor! This is going to build up the faith and draw me closer to Heavenly Papa. I'm loved.

*****Favorite of  the Year*****

Speaking of the word, it's Chinese New Year. For most, this year is a little bit different for me. Just a small reunion dinner with my family members, six of us, included MyLittleCottonBall-QianQian, makes me realized the importance of family and treasure all of them more. I ensured all of my time is filled with agenda and plans so that I would remain busy all day long but my intention to bake some cookies and cakes failed. Perhaps next time. Ain't not a good or even professional pâtissier but practice makes perfect. Brushing up my skills meanwhile I have the time. There's a lot of things that I wanted to do this year. Dance class, skating, language,  baking, business, and jobs perhaps?

*****My Little Cotton Ball*****

It has been a very tough year to me. All because of my senseless mind, I have been skipping church and cell group, quit serving in choir, stop praying and worshiping, by means no quiet time at all, and these sum up to total neglecting God. There is no other reasons why that my life is in such a mess. Lucky me, thanks to my ever supporting family in Christ especially my beloved leaders and Pastor, who never give up on my and yet continue to encourage and love me. Most importantly, thanks to Heavenly Papa for always being there to lift me up once again. Hence, my determination this year is to cultivate the habit of praying, worshiping and Bible meditation to stir up my spiritual life. Believing that by doing my own part and leaving the rest to Heavenly Papa with faith, everything will be alright.

These are a part of my new year resolution. Next, studies. Still cracking my brain for a suitable course. However, I've already got myself a secure placement. Let's just see how it goes. Pray that I've made the right choice.O gosh. My English seems to be real sucks right now. I've another IELTS to sit for. 


I have the feeling that this is gonna be a good year, a good start for a beginning of a new journey. I will absolutely jot down each and every bits of the moment. Stay tune and continue to walk with me. I believe this is going to be a fascinating year for me.

*****Future lies ahead*****

Love,

Alyssa Cross
