Thursday 31/10

Was waiting for this day to come for so long. Exam ended and finally a long weekend to laze around. And so, Sek Sam Nee picked JiaQi, ChiYi and I after school. Headed to STG for lunch (and I only thought it was for lunch). Haha.

After main course, I wanted to try on the desserts (as always). I ordered this and everyone seemed indifferent.. I didn't know why until I get to know that they bought me a cake. :3 I likey them as they whispered me a birthday song. :'D

But anyway this was good. Tiramisu. RM15, I think.

I was really surprised cause I had no idea when they brought this in to the restaurant. *clap clap*

I look slim omg hahahahaha. :3

Thank you to all these sweethearts for the surprise advanced birthday lunch. :D <3

Very much appreciated! :)

Friday 1/11

I don't really remember what I did this day.. Only remembered having dinner with my dad and grandparents. Then dad sent me to Siewseem's place and wished me Happy Advanced Birthday before heading back to SG for work. :/ Hmm I don't think I've celebrated my birthday with him throughout the years.. But well, it's the thought that counts! :)

It was about 10.30 when we went out and meet Weng. It was just a meet up and drink and chill.

First stop; History. I don't really like that place now. So boring compared to BnB. :p

Yays to SiewSeem's long hands! 

Hahahha because mine is never long enough to take a shot like that. :p

SiewSeem bought me a slice of rainbow cake and we decided not to eat it at History to avoid the DJ from playing me a birthday song. Haha so we headed to Weng's Haagen Daz @ Kinta Riverfront. There weren't a lot of people so it made the ambience really romantic and soothing. :D

Both of them knew how much I think receiving a birthday song from someone is very awkward yet, they sang it at the top of their voice. Hahaha. We ate the cake and a scoop of ice cream together and took pictures (again) lol.

My face^ is due to the wishes I made for both of my darlings. ;)

So many hands in the picture. Hahaha.

Weng Weng. :3

:D

On the way home, we passed my Little India and I asked SiewSeem if she wants to have henna.

Without a second thought, she parked the car and we headed down for Henna. At 12.30 midnight. Hahhaha so spontaneously crazy. 

It was my first time having henna, decided to have it on my palm as I was afraid to get myself into trouble in school. :p Both of us had the same pattern. Hehe. It was instantly done within 5-7 minutes per hand. Super efficient. 

Have a look on my fat hand and Ss' slim hand (ohmyenglish).

It was RM10 per hand btw. You can actually buy the ink (or whatever you call it) to do it for yourself. It is A LOT cheaper. But we the lazy people was lazy so.. whatudo? :P

It was dried within an hour but we were told not to erase until the next day but aiya. Ain't nobody got time for that. :p

It turned out like that ^

But it gets darker the next morning ^ haha.

Saturday 2/11

I went for this deepavali open house with fellow GenY people (after so long of not meeting them) :D

Then I went to Steven for his first F5 modmaths class. *phew* I am aware that I need to focus on my studies so much more because with the results that I've been achieving, I'm no good. Bless me? :)

Later at night, JiaQi picked me up from home to attend Lavishya's open house. (I am so thankful for people who stays near me and is willing to carpool hehe). And two open houses in a day! Feeling so fat :O I borrowed a set of saree for the event but, hahahahaididn'tknowhowtotiethesaree. So I only wore it at Lavishya's place with the help of her mum and grandma hahahah. :P but well, the outcome wasn't that bad la. 

So matching :3 Heheheh Alyssa, my grizzly bear. :D

Sunday 3/11

Had a birthday lunch with the fam bam @ Yum Yum. Hehe. Everyone was busy teasing me for stupid things hahaha. My aunts are like so wild till my mum also no eyes see. :p

There were not any pictures cause my mum took pictures and she lost her phone! :( (screw whoever who took her phone. I feel really sad for her cause it's the memories/pictures/contacts in the phone that matters). Ah well, let bygones be bygones. :/

Spend the rest of the day at home and then later went out to Plan B for my advanced birthday bash. :)

One thing to laugh about : I told everyone that the dinner starts at 7. And I reached at 7.40pm with 3 people there. Hahahha. Malaysians are goddamn unpunctual!! :'D

People started coming one by one and what made me happiest was the presence of LIEW NYIT LENG!! Oh dear. It's been yearssss since I last seen her. Every single time we plan to meet up but end up failing. And think itik lied to me that she couldn't make it back to Ipoh. I seriously was disappointed already.. until I saw this crazily skinny girl in red running in, trying to hide from me. XD

I was really happy with everyone present there. It was a small group (personally) and I feel comfortable with everyone there. Hehe.

My dearest Kiew comes up with awesome idea to surprise me every year. Last year was a rainbow cake. Tbh, they made the rainbow cake before any other cafes did. Trend setter whey. ;) Well this year, they knew I didn't want a cake cause everyone won't finish up the cake and yeah, she and Mun made me a jelly! :3

Loves <3 <3

Cross section of the jelly. Haha. 

Strawberries; peaches; pineapples; kiwis; blueberries + love. :3

Took polaroids and a lot of pictures (what we people, especially girls do). These are my personal favorites hehehe. :3

Blur but everyone was so happy! :)

Our kissy face bring the boys to the yard. :'D

Nomnomnom.

This, is classic. Hhahahha.

With two of the smallest eyed humans. - - 

Mun, Kiew, Nyit Leng and I headed for the second round @ BnB.

So rare to have a chance to go out with Nyit and we went all out. Lololol :p

Ordered 3 full pints of Kilkenny for Mun, Kiew and I. Nyit was just sitting there.. probably thinking how badass her friends became. D: (haha jokes) What was unexpected was the vodka shots that Mun ordered for me. Oh dear Lord. One shot down and it burns my throat.. I started getting tipsy. But well, I'm alright hahahah. New experience ma. :p

Then headed to OTK Studio @ Greentown for karaoke session! 12am - 2am. I wonder why I was still energetic hahahah. Sang like mad till I can't feel my voice already. Haha.

It was really enjoyable hanging with these bunch of friends. :) <3

When Mun was refilling petrol. And I was being a little lame and high and whatever you call it.

I look okay with specs right? Haha.

Monday 4/11

Slept at 3.30 the night before at Kiew's place and woke up at 7.30 with a slight hangover.

Edwin picked us up for this Respect Workshop at SMK Kg Dato Ahmad Said, Manjoi.

Banana leaf rice @ Sri Ananda's. In love with the cheese nun. 

ThenmybestfriendandEdwinandZiTengbroughtmetoAeonandwatchthisamazing'comedy'movie.

MylifefeelscompletewhenIhavefriendswhohelpme'overcomemyfear'.

You have no idea how much I 'enjoyed' throughout the movie. I covered my eyes and ears for 2 hours. Totally closed my eyes during the scary parts to avoid post-symptoms hahhaa. My curiosity killed the cat. Wanna know what happened next but didn't dare to watch. Pfft.

I'm really thankful for everyone who took time to celebrate with me and even those who send me wishes on Facebook, Whatsapp etc. All these made me feel appreciated. :)

Once again, thanks everyone for making my sixteen birthday a blast! Hehehe. God bless you <3

Potato couching?

I've been looking at the screen since last night.
Went to the cinema for a midnight movie yesterday. It was quite exciting as I don't think I've ever done that before with my mumzeee. Hhaha.
UNBEATABLE was what we watched. Didn't have a good impression of it as I thought it was only some typical cina action movie. But darn, I was wrong. It was seriously amazing. Great story line, meaningful as well. Together with awesome actors, actresses, and those smoking hot bodies (this is just a bonus ok).

Featuring Eddie Peng & Nick Cheung.

This heartthrob is darn hot. *fangirling* 

& the girl is Crystal Lee from Malaysia. 

Her acting skills were so good she actually won an award for the movie. And she acted in a lot of movies as well! Together with Jay Chou for the previous one leh. Darn jealous she's that talented. She definitely makes us Malaysians proud! :D

I've been slacking for the whole entire day, watching Triumph In The Skies II. Omg tonight is the last ep! I know I should totally start studying now but lol, my ass is somehow attached to the couch.
Been thinking about my future a lot. Not knowing if I can reach what my parents and everybody else in the house aim for. Peer pressure. Why do they think it's darn easy to do something out of their control? Getting a scholarship is something I doubt I can, because I'm not good enough? I should start preparing a plan b if plan a doesn't work.
Well, hope for the best and prepare for the worst. That's all for now. :)

Last day of August

Quite a happy today. Went out and spent some time with two of my fav. people. :)

Mum dropped me at JJ and oh my dear Lord. I can't breathe. People mountain people sea. Haha. Saw a few of my schoolmates as well.
& sorry to say I really don't have the 'merdeka feel' this year. Sorry, the country that have the best place (which is my bed) on earth.

I spent my time alone, waiting for Kiew at MPH (because it has the least people), checking out books. Omg I still think it's kinda odd for me to do so because reading is just not my thing. However, I just finish reading a novel in a day (which is quite productive). Hahaha.

Due to the overpopulated situation, Kiew and I left JJ for STG for a better yumcha place. :D

Little did we know, STG was full house as well. Waited for 5 minutes for a table for three (mum, Kiew and I). "This became all the 'si lais' hangout place" Hahhaha. Cannot agree more.

I realize we are so asian because all of us takes pictures of the food. #asiansatwork
Hmm I will not post pictures here because I've already posted them on my Insta/Facebook. Feel free to check them out. :)



Instead, I'd like to give a little review about the book Intan lent me, and which I find amazing.

Tumblr people loves this a lot. You will notice about quotes from the book and all sorts.
It's rather unbelievable that this book made me giggle, because the sarcasm they have is LVL9999. Made me envy, because it's a wonderful love story. Made my heart ache (I shall not tell you why because I'd recommend you to read and explore yourself). This book really got me in it and I was traveling along with the characters in the book. :)
I can't deny that it's good to feel that way as I haven't been reading since 2/3 years ago? Haha. The last novel I read (and is still in my memory) was Twilight? HAHAHAHA. So yeah. :P

Currently, I'm reading this (which I borrowed from Kiew yesterday) :
I think I'm picking up reading as a hobby? Omg said me. We'll see. ;)

BTW, JOHN GREEN IS A GENIUS. <3 <3 <3

Dear you who's reading this.

I hope you made the best decision for yourself. I support whatever your choice is. All I hope is for you to get happier. I seriously hope both of you can still be friends even after all these. Take your time to heal. Don't worry, I'll be there for you when you need me. *hugsssss* <3

Plan Bee

THIS POST WAS SUPPOSED TO BE PUBLISHED DAYS AGO. IDK WHAT HAPPENED MY PHONE APP DID NOT MANAGE TO PUBLISH THIS. SORRYYYYYY :(



*

Mum picked me up from school and we headed to Plan B for lunch! It was mum's first time there and I guess it made a good impression on her? Except for the overpriced food, said mum.

I wouldn't even eat in school if I knew mum is bringing me for this. :(

Carbonara.

For the first time, I think it has too much cheese. Haha.

Mocha! 

Was dying for coffee and this fixed my craving. :3

Flourless Chocolate Cake. 

Nomnomnom this is so good. It's so moist and warm on the inside. But one thing, the choc powder on top got all over my shirt ahhaha. Therefore, beware when you're eating this. (not so much if you're not as lousy as me :p)

& then.
I was quite happy cause I met Shammi, LiXin and YiQi there! Felt really appreciated when they actually bother to make conversations with me even though they left school for quite sometime now. :) sat down with them and talked about school, life in college and what's not. It was during CNY when I last saw them. Wow time flies. Makes me realize how limited time is. In a blink of an eye, everything changes. Phew, slow down, time! 

Makan journal @ Singapore? Seems like it

Finally back from Singapore after 3 days 2 nights.

It was a new experience with new people. :) First time travelling with only a friend, first time travelling with Joei. New memories made. Departed at 10pm and reached SG at 6.40am. Both of us stayed at my dad's place in Holland Village. I quite like the facilities available in that area. From banks to MRT station to markets to grocery stores to food court to cafes to bars to many more. All within your walking distance. After a few hours of sleep, dad brought us out to makan @ Poulet, Vivocity. *thumbs up*

Mushroom soup. 

So creamy and thick it fills you up before the main course. But it tastes really good.

Lamb shank. (Y)

Tiramisu. 

Big portion, enough for 3 person (after meal).

We went shopping for two days, all by ourselves. Thank goodness I did not spend a lot (I guess). Haha. Met up with Jroe Phin in Bugis and spent a few hours together. She's there for a month now and she already knew the place so well. *salute* She brought us to Strictly Pancakes for pancakes (duh). The food was good. It was served with big portion and reasonable price. Service a little bad though.

Potatoes Leeking Cheese.

Snuggle Up.

Strawberries & Co.

Picture of us three. :)

The last day of our holiday at Singapore was rather relaxed and carefree. We woke up early in the morning and headed to Peninsula Plaza at Cityhall to get some camera accessories. That place was pretty much like Yik Foong but much deserted. Maybe it was due to the late business hours. Singaporeans mahhh. 12.45pm only open. ._. 

MRT all the way to my uncle's place at Tampines after that. Miss having the coffee from food courts in SG which costs $1, with rich aroma and thickness. Too bad, I was quite disappointed with the one I had in the Tampines food court. Cost $1.10 and tastes mehhh. :/

Met my cousins and oh dear. They are so cute lahhh. I want to get some of their cuteness as well. :3 We then meet up with my dad and aunt and headed to East Coast. The boys were having their time playing with sand while I was risking my life, playing roller skates. Fuh. Hard and scary time I had.

Dylan and Dalvin. Cutie pies. :3

Dad, me and aunt.

Handsome uncle, awesome dad, cool aunts. <3

Joeiiiii << the kangaroo baby. 

That's what I called her since I were lil' kids. Haha.

Went home, packed up, and left Singapore at night.

I'll have to wait for end Nov/Dec or next year to visit SG again. Cool place it is.

A vacation wouldn't be complete without pictures of sceneries. So, brace yourselves. :)

Reminds me of Koh Lipe. :(

What Singapore is filled with.

So hard to get myself back to reality after Thailand and SG. But what can I do? I still have to. It's gonna be a hard Monday tomorrow. :/ 

Ah. Me being a pessimist at times is suffering. Disappointed in people whom I put up hopes on. Thinking about it, who am I to expect things from them? Well, if it's meant to be, it will be. 

Goodbye for now. I have been writing two posts at a time for quite some time. Lol. Sorry for the inefficiency. Luck for you and me for school tomorrow and the days after. :) xx

Blessed

I don't think this is too late to say,

SELAMAT HARI RAYA, my fellow Malay buddies! :D

There are quite a lot of things to be happy about today. 

Firstly, there's actually people viewing my blog! More than pleased to know that my pageviews are increasing. Thank you for those who actually reads my blog. You're my motivation to keep blogging. Hahhaha. This sounds like as if I'm receiving a Grammy. 

I finally get to meet some of my friends after a week. Mun picked me up this afternoon to get a fruit basket for Intan at Ipoh Garden South. Then we headed to Scotch Restaurant for brunch and later to Secret Recipe for a slice of cake (Mun forced me to eat most of it but I did not as it will take up room for rendang chicken later! :P) Tapao-ed brownies for our beloved Kiew then proceeded to Intan's place. We spent time chilling and letting the stomach do its job before taking in more foooooood. :P Oh and then, Intan and I went out to lead Kyshilla to her house, on her bike, without helmet, and her license. Felt so young, wild a free. ;D 

Pictures of the day : 

P/S : Girls are going to be girls.

I don't know why but I like this shot a lot. :3

Why is HoayYing the only being so normal. Pfft. 

Tengok host tu. Banyak pattern.

Beeeeffeff. <3

And group picture. :) *credits to Kiew for the picture*

I went home after tuition and dinner at my grandparents' place (together with some driving lessons ;)) and.. guess what I saw on my table! *drumrolls*

A POSTCARD FROM CHOR YEN YEEN ALL THE WAY FROM AUSSIE!! :D

I was so happy and I smiled all the way reading it. Hehe.

Thank you so much, Chor. I really appreciate it. So sweet of you to send postcards that you bought during your trip to Europe. :3 It made my day! <3

Her neat handwriting surprised me and it took so long for the postcard to arrive! Lol.

Mum found a video online and we started watching it together. I guess you should take a look at it as well. It left me an impact and made me realize things that I've been taking for granted. So thankful that there are producers making such meaningful videos to open up our hearts. Well, it's just a video after all. It wouldn't hurt watching. Do check it out here. :)

That's all for now.

I'm feeling really good and I feel like praying (wow). So yeah. Lol.

Thank you God for this wonderful day spent with lovely people in my life.

Thank you for keeping me save and sound, and for the good good food I had throughout the day.

I pray for your endless guidance towards my family, friends and I. 

Amen. :)
