30 before 30

CLEO - August edition. If you happen to be on the same page with me, surely you know what this 30 before 30 is all about. :)

Well, these are the 30 things that you should do before you hit the THREE-OH. Oh, not merely you - we, us; the one yang haven't reach 30. Haha.

So, I was kinda like " I need to do a review on this." - Haha. So-called review of my own. Haha. Again.

1. Learn a new language
Well, I did learn French while I was still in school; passed the exams and what do I have now? The only French that I remember and know are  - Bonjour, Comme ca va?, Je suis Malaisienne, Mon amie and of course Je t'aime. Hehe. So, this one checked la kan? I did this! Haha.

2. Learn a dance
No specific type of dance, aite? Then, I should consider poco-poco and jamilah dance as one of it la. Haha. Plus, these two dances have become our weekly activity at home. Work out I guess? Hehe.

3. Road trip
Road trip with work mate - yes! If that considered as one. with sumandaks? Hmm. If driving back and forth from Menggatal to Inanam during Vey's wedding  is a road trip, then, yes it is la! Haha. Oh, and one more driving from Tuaran to KM for Rai's engagement. Haha. Dear sumandaks, we should do this. Together-gether. Haha.

4. Volunteer
The best moment I had being a volunteer - International Power lifting Championship 2010 for the paralympics. Although, initially, I sooo don't want to be involved but once I became one, the experience was wonderful and amazing. Great memories!

5. Live in another country
I haven't try this one but I did live in another state for 4 years. Haha. And yes, I did learn new cultures, try new food, learn the language ( a bit !). Aside from that, I became greatly attached to home when it comes to semester break. 

6. Try an exotic food you can't pronounce
No- no I guess. Haha.

7. Host your first sit-down dinner party, the kind with LBDS and wine glasses.

Err. Not really my type though! Hee

I saw one in Istana Budaya. yeayy!

10. Apologise to someone you were mean in school
Not sure. Either I did it or not. Hee

I've been dying to do this since Uni. I was planning to do this after I finished with my study ( want to be off the radar) but to failed attempt. Haha.
