2000-2009: SYAF THEN AND NOW

December 23, 2009 By: syafique Category: Fab is Me

I was seventeen!

I was seventeen!

We are few days away from bidding farewell to year 2009 and welcoming 2010. The end of 2009 doesn’t only marks the end of a year but it is also the end of the ’00 decade. I posted a Question via www.syafiqueshuib.com/facebook: How have you evolved over the last ten years. To make it more fun, I decided to create a “Then and Now” list. I hope you will share your list with me, too.

P.S. The pic on the right is of me when I was 17. I was a Senior in High School.
