2019 Roundup

Rollercoaster year, 2019. Supposedly the end of another decade... unless you're one of those people who's in the "2021 should be the start of the next decade" camp. I don't care either way. 
  • Down to one grandmother/grandparent this year. I'm kinda hoping not to have to celebrate the coming CNY?
  • Comedy shows (by this, I mean anything that's at least an hour long) attended in 2019: Jim Jefferies, Jim Gaffigan, Brian Tan, Phoon Chi Ho, Instant Cafe Theatre, Iliza (both in Singapore and KL, unintentionally), Kavin Jay, MACC's last show, Prakash Daniel, Ronny Chieng
  • One gig: Snow Patrol 
  • Made a bunch of online friends for contest tagging purposes (for when you don't want to tag people you know IRL). If you can find me on the soc med, yeah you can tag me in for contests, etc.
  • Managed to catch eight theatre productions this past year. 
  • A bunch of Cold Storage and Giant stores are closing/have closed. 
  • Some airlines are now legally bound NOT to charge card processing fees... 
  • Brown sugar boba in fresh milk seems to be a thing this year. Not worth the lactose intolerance, and am probably too old for it. 
  • The landmark PJ EPF office closed for good this year after the fire last year. (It's now in the building next to Amcorp Mall, but only member services). 
  • Won a USB powered scented eye mask.
  • Attended two wedding dinners this year.
  • I learned this year that you don't get to choose the included meal in AirAsia's Value Pack, but you do get to choose whether you want vegetarian or not. 
  • Cat passed away this year. 
  • Ben & Jerry's scoop shop finally opened in Malaysia this year.
  • Bodily injuries this year: sprained, fractured arm. During my grandmother's funeral. 
  • Renewed driver's license for 6 years. (I know maximum is 5 years, but was charged for 6 cos of the difference on renewal date and actual birthday was more than 6 months. Cis).
Happy (Gregorian) New Year.
