The 5th of May

2013-05-06T06:58:00.001-07:00

Frankly speaking here, I'm quite disappointed with the election result, but wad can I do when I'm just a normal girl with no super power? But I deeply realized that I need to work harder on wad I'm doing and try to earn more money n live a better life.Be happy and live the best out of it. Perhaps that was a wake up call to me, maybe not just me but a lot people out there.

I see a lot of video and posts on facbook about how the government has violated this election. Example: bring in illegal immigrant and give them blue Ic to vote, some legal voter details just disappear from the spr system out of no where, extra boxes of votes came in last minute, blackout during the vote count session, and so on.
I donno which is true and which is not true. Okay, let's say...

if BN won the election WITHOUT doing things I mentioned above.
I deeply truly respect the election result. As most of you all said we must respect each other. But I have only one small request. Just hope that in future nobody, no cicik, adik, itik call the Chinese to go back China and Indian to go back India. This is really disrespectful. yes, there is Chinese and Indians in Malaysia but we are all born here and we are anak Malaysia. So nobody has the right to ask us to go back to china and India because we DON'T belong to those countries.
It's sad when people don't treat us Chinese and Indian as part of the Malaysian when our ancestors contributed in building this country.
This is my request, respect us, we are anak Malaysia.

If BN won the elections by using these dirty tactics. I said IF okay?
Then I would like to say "where's justice?". And do you really feel happy if you get the first place in the class by cheating in the exam but not studying hard?
Don't forget about the bangla. They are human too, they are not your political tools.
I still believe in justice and I believe in Karma too. A true leader will gain the hearts and supports from the nation, and lousy leader might gain power but he/she will never be respected by anyone.

Whatever it is...Happy ruling the country. Wish you all the best

Lastly, my dad always tells me "there's bad and good people in every race and ethnic. We can't judge a person by their skin color"

The day I know...

I never post any entry here for the whole December. Isn't December an eventful month?
Yea, it is but.. There were a lot of things going on, in my life and in my mind. I have to rush for internship report, go for body checkup and so for.

I found out that I have some tumors in my breast. but no worries, they are all NON-cancerous tumors still.
I used ''they are'' simply because I do not have just one tumor but I have quite a number which Doctor have given up on counting them. FUNNY BUT TRUE.

How I actually found out?
I think it was about 2 months back when I was enjoying my shower, I can feel there's a lump on my left breast. I was quite worried and curious at the same time. So I decided to tell my mum and discuss with her.
Then about last month I went to a clinic for a simple checkup and the 1st doctor told me that she can feel not 1 but 3 lumps on my left breast. I got tensed up at the moment, I thought I'm gonna die in no time.
She wrote a letter to send me to a specialist for some scanning, because she said it will be much more accurate if I go for scanning.
and yea, I went for the scanning.
first thing the doctor told me : " wow, your have many friends!'' (friends is referring to my tumors)
and she start counting, '' okay, you have 1 here, 2 , 3, 4, 5... 6, 7.. alright I think you have too many and I have lost count...''

Don't you think what she said is very amusing? haha.. but actually I got dumbfounded when she said I have so many tumors.
They are not cancerous tumor. I will be fine. All I need to do now is to practise a very healthy lifestyle and take a lot of great supplement pills :)

To all my girl friends, please do some self-check on your breast and do go for ultrasound scanning at least once a year because some tumors can't be felt from the surface of your breast.

Here is some breast self-exam idea!!

Breakthrough Breast Cancer advocate a simple TLC method that will help you spot abnormalities as early as possible.
TOUCH your breasts. Can you feel anything unusual?
LOOK for changes. Is there any change in shape or texture?
CHECK anything unusual with your doctor.

Handy Tips for Breast Self-exam
feel your breasts while lying down,
using your right hand to feel your left breast (raise up your left hand) and then
your left hand to feel your right breast (raise up your right hand).
(for more details : http://www.breastcancer.org/symptoms/testing/types/self_exam/bse_steps)

p/s: this entry is NOT to get any sympathy from anyone because I'm totally fine. I just wanna create some awareness among the girls :) love yourself more ♥

What to wear on the Xmas day?

2012-11-25T23:33:00.000-08:00

2012 has almost come to an end! You people notice?
I love December, it's a very joyful month, filled with festive atmosphere. I'm super excited for everything,Christmas... New Year Eve..( okay, except for the predicted dooms day). I seriously hope whatever prediction about the Mayan Doomsday is just a purely joke and it is not gonna come true, I have too many things I wanna do still. Same goes to you guys right? So yea, let's just hope for the best.
okay, back to the excited talk about the Christmas day. How excited am I? I already ordered my Christmas day outfit since October, even though I have no X'mas plan yet. HAH...

What to wear on the Christmas day/ Eve?
We should choose something which is classy and attention-grabbing for the Christmas celebration. For example: purple color, silver gold, colorful sequins and glittery details and of course RED!
To me, Christmas is just like Chinese New Year. You will never go wrong with red color ;)
Why do I prepare it so early?
Firstly, too excited. Secondly, the earlier you prepare your Xmas outfits, the chances for you to have the same outfits with others is way lower, because I supposed most of us like to do last minute shopping, for Chinese new year, for prom and so on. So yea, to avoid the awkward situation, you should get your Xmas outfit 1 or 2 months in advance.

Here are some recommendations for Xmas day outfits!

dress A

dress B

dress C

Dress A,B,C are 3 picks from Phatculture. The price range is rather affordable

Dress A: red velvet color, a very simple yet classy dress. You can consider this dress if you are gonna have buffet dinner on Xmas because it's not too tight for you to stuff good food!

Dress B: a bond girl Severine inspired dress. You will just need to put it on with smokey eyes and dark red lips and you'll look drop dead sexy on your xmas.

Dress C: if you are going to attend some wild xmas party, why not this? you can definitely stand out from the crowd. Match it with a pair of sky high heels and keep it simple. That's enough to... VA VA VOOM~

If you prefer simple and sweet looking dresses for a Xmas dinner date, you should try Dressabelle. Ample of choices over there.

Collars have been trending for quite some time now, and it's still the favorite among the girls, I supposed.

Leather dress for Xmas, anyone? :) a very cool and sophisticated look. Maroon leather dress!

Studs, prints, pastel dresses. All you can get it from Style by Juliet!

Black dress with silver studs. also avaiable in Burgundt with gold studs. easy to carry.

lace with grace. Pastel Mint green !

This dress is so Kim Kardashian. Agree? a dress to show what you have!

If you are not a ''dress person'' like me, probably you can go for leggings, bodycon skirt. Feel free to view Michelle Phan's video for modest dressing idea for your Xmas :))

So so many gorgeous piece available out there, so there's no more excuse for you not to dress up on the Christmas day.

let's indulge in this stunning festive season. :)

a night with Bulgogi Brothers

2012-11-07T21:57:00.001-08:00

Haloo all :)
I'm back. For those who saw the latest photo I posted on fb will know that I just celebrated Mr.Loke's Birthday few days back.

We went to this Korean Restaurant located at Paradigm Mall named Bulgogi Brothers for our dinner .
It was a belated birthday dinner for 2 birthday boys, Mr.loke and Lin Chin aka Mr.pilot.
FYI, I am a big fan of Korean Cuisine. and Japanese, and.. TOM YUM and.. (the list goes on and on). I love eating good food. Oh well,who doesn't???
Good food doesn't mean expensive food. Good food simply means tasty and stunning food or whatever makes me happy. Nasi Lemak from the roadside could be a good food too.
So, these are what we had :

Korean side dishes

The Korean Appetizer was fine. I am totally in love with the mashed pumpkin scoop. I swear, it is really scrumptious. love the cold and smooth texture, with a little crunchy pumpkin bits in it.

Kimchi Jjigae

Unlike the Kimchi Soup from Daorae, this Kimchi Jjigae is much thicker than usual and is rather authentic. A very warm and hearty dish. Besides, I didn't expect the beef slice to be so tender which literally melted in my mouth? I think. *exaggerating*

Soju Chum-curum

Soju, errr... I took a tiny sip, we think it tasted like Vodka. 4 of them ended up didn't get to finish this small bottle of Soju. This brand is one of the favourite Soju brand in Korea (according to the menu info), but too bad.. not for me.

Haemul Bibimbab

This is what I ordered. It Tastes really bland itself, but it tasted much better with the Korean chili paste.

Haemul Gungjung Mandu

The above is the Golden brown Korean dumplings served with mussels, shrimps, squids.
I prefer Japanese dumplings (gyoza) more.

Haemul Pajeon

This is the worst of all. tasteless and glutinous piece of flour.
It doesn't taste as good as it looks. Don't be deceived by its presentation :/

Dak Galbi Bulgogi

After having so many dishes, this is our last dish. We were all already so full at that time, especially me, but still I had a few pieces of those. This dish is not suitable for those who can't take spicy food at all because it is really spicy, I donno why.

Overall, the food is quite satisfactory (except for the Korean pancake), the service was not so good but the waiter served us a complimentary plum tea after we finished our meal, so this actually add points a little.
The plum tea is really nice, and I finished it up for Mr.loke. HAH... (maybe I was just too thirsty)

Last but not least, a group photo of Mr.Loke with his close friends since high school. Nice meeting you guys :))

Tree & Koala :)

took few pictures but all is blurry. This is the best I have with me. but still better than nothing.

The OL diary: way of life

2012-10-20T04:42:00.001-07:00

Hello everyone! How’s life?
I’m still alive after going through hectic weeks.
Ever since I started my internship, I have been spending my time really well (Yes, even the weekends).

I blogged about my first week of internship in the previous entry. So this week, I'm NOT going to continue my week 2 story, etc , but I'm going to blog about some thoughts I have got in my mind after working for 3 weeks.

Everyone is a two-faced for different situations, I reckon.
For example: In the workplace, no matter how people dislike their superior for example the CEO. Hmm.. they will just nod their heads happily with a great big smile. Deep in their heart, agree or not? You will get to find out after the “superior” left because the gossip and sarcasm will just reveal clearly.
I guess this is what we called the way of surviving in the workplace?
I still remember one of my friends called me up and ask about what’s true friend? How to know who is true friend, who’s not?

I told her it is hard to know who is true and who is not and it is definitely a waste of time to suspect your friends and try to figure out who’s not a true friend (backstabber) because it’s hard to know. For me, as long as the person treats me nice and right then he/ she is a great friend. What they do behind I’ll just leave it behind. For those who are OBVIOUSLY a betrayer and backstabber, you should just stay away from them. FULL STOP
life is too short to worry who’s true and who's not. Agree?Anyway, this is just my opinion and you don’t have to agree with me. HahOkay okay… switch topic.
You know what are the pros and cons of working in a food & beverage company?
let me share some.

Advantage:You get to get free food. I got a box of free mooncake on the first day. Besides, our manager treated us a lunch on last Friday. I got to try around 11 types of food from the menu. I don’t think I will get to try so many things from the menu even if I go as a customer for 3 times!

Disadvantage:A food company. I'm working in the accounting department and I deal with invoices every day and you know what? The invoice papers are a bit dirty, oily, and dusty. I can see chili stain, oil stain on the paper. Imagine the same paper has been passing around from the supplier (meat,vege, fish seller) to the outlet (which gonna pass around in the kitchen as well) and lastly, the lucky one from the head quarter office will get those invoices. Now you know why.
Don’t worry, not every of them but some. Lol

OOTD
finally get to wear this dress from topshop after bought it for 3 months. :)

lastly, let me share this quote from one of my favorite movie.

“People have two sides, a good side and a bad side, a past, a future. We must embrace both in someone we love.” -The Tourist-

Enjoy you weekends!

The OL diary: first week of internship

2012-10-05T22:57:00.001-07:00

Haloo peep. I have started my internship and this entry is sort of like a diary and sharing about my internship :)

day 1 of internship
I feel lost and trying to adapt to this new environment, a place where I know nobody.
I have my own cubicle and my seat is right under the air-conditioner. freezing there and I got flu at the end of the day.
Basically unfamiliar with my work task and the office culture.

day 2
My flu just got worse and I felt so fatigue and felt so so reluctant to enter the office, but I tried to focus on my task and hoping time flies.

day 3
I took panadol before I go to work and today I got a little smarter. why? Because.. I brought my earphone to my workplace as I reminded myself yesterday. It's just so quiet, all I can hear is the phone ringing, puncher and stapler noise, oh yea.. and the fax machine noise. I need music!
At the end of the day, Adele's songs saved my day :)

day 4
Today felt much better, no more fever. I kinda started to enjoy my work more.

day 5
Emo Nemo in the morning because I fought with Mr. Loke. -.-
Today did a lot of scanning... scan audit annual report from different outlet and the 'best part' is I gotta flip page by page and the ''double best part'' is I need to scan the same thing for twice due to some problem.

Overall, I started to adapt to the environment and I get to learn a lot of new things.
hope next week is gonna be better! :)

Besides telling you about my intership, I shall share some friend's internship experience too ahemmm...

Miss xx: first week of internship just got scolded like nobody business just because she made some mistakes.

Miss pp: she witnessed live ''office drama and cat fight''. 3 colleagues just quarrell and almost slap each other. What caused that? too much of gossips.
moral of the story: Don't gossip so much when you work.

Mr gg: I saw his fb status saying first day of internship - mop the floor in formal wear.

haha, so for those who are still enojoying Uni life, please enjoy and cherish your uni life...
Internship and work life is not that easy. Of course they are still some got great experience.

I got this on the first day of internship. not bad huh...

Seriously,
I feel that time is really precious now :/

I wish I was strong enough to leave

2012-09-21T08:55:00.000-07:00

Hello peep!

aren't these a little too gorgeous to resist?
already drop my order. will snap photos of myself wearing it when it's here! :))
btw, I ordered the tube dress

Done with my final examinations. Finally done. Did well or not? let's just not talk about this. Especially I. BEEE paper. ppfftt
Gonna start my intern in about a week time, feel so nervous. I need to fill up my wardrobe with some formal wears, what I have now is insufficient for me to wear everyday. and my sister recommended me this formal wear online store- doublewoot. You girls can check this out if you are desperately in need of formal wear, just like I do.

I feel kinda emo these days. Besides stress, I feel so emo. why? I'm gonna leave where I'm staying now for 3 months of internship. sighh.. What I'm gonna face is uncertainty. Donno what will happened to me in future, and I have no idea where fate and destiny will lead us to. So much to worry.
I will truly miss this place; a place where I grow and improve so much, physically and mentally (self-declared HAHA) and way of handling things; a place which give me so much to remember, even though there's still some not so pleasant one such as friends who backstabbed, betrayed and all. but who cares? this is life.
For the great memories, I will miss my dearest housemates, fyp mates, some great friends in Uni, events that I involved before, attending my favourite tutor's classes hmmm :p and get to meet my love here- Mr. Loke.
Every street, every leaf, every sunset and sunrise...This small little town is beautifully filled with priceless memories.

Wow,sound like I'm graduating immediately huh? lol
Whatever it is... what I'm anticipating next is :

-have more family time
-my internship life.
-meet up with friends.
-a lot of shoppingss, Budget shopping of course.
-H&M!!

yes, first H&M outlet is gonna open in Lot10 on the 22nd September,2012. I'm sure most of the girls know about this and have been drooling for a long time! hope I can get some pieces from there soon!

Sometimes in life we hit a crossroads and are forced to choose which path we want to take.
And there's no way of knowing if our journey will lead us to pleasure or pain.

let's just hope everything is gonna be fine...
have a great weekends ahead

you ripped me off

2012-09-06T13:25:00.003-07:00

Haloo! Long time no see. Nothing much to update, exam season, so yea it's all about late night revision, sleepless night, supper and tonnes of notes!
Just done with Portfolio Management paper today, totally look like a zombie now.
Somehow I managed to catch a movie few days back. I wanted to watch Katy Perry [Part of Me] but no one else was interested to watch that. Majority wins all the time, so we end up watching [Total recall]. A remake science fiction, which originally made in 1990. I don't usually fancy with science fiction movie nor book, but I think this is not bad at all. Both actresses, Jessica Biel and Kate Beckinsale are sizzling hot in the movie.

I'm gonna show another OOTD in this entry.
Another easy to carry outfit. comfy smart casual :))

OOTD 02

Top: bow detailed, a little Chanel inspired, from Covetz. I just love the gold buttons and black bow details.
Pants: 2 years old denim shorts from Cotton On. I have modified it into a ripped shorts.
Shoes: Red classic, from TOMS

Miss Purple and I managed to camwhore a little in campus before attending IB extra class. Last IB class :(
I hope I'm gonna get good grade for this subject.
Love the fact that, we always get to have some silly moment in Uni. The wind was so strong and there were some gardeners around us when we're comwhoring, really awkward eh.

TAKE 1
failed! I was trying to hold my hair, because of the strong wind. look so funny
and this photo amuse Miss purpple A LOT. lol

TAKE 2
this is much better. a satisfying shot

The next part I'll show how I DIY my Denim shorts from Cotton On to a ripped denim shorts a.k.a cut-off shorts. Just a few simple steps and you get to cheat a little and solve a tinsy part of your wardorbe malfunction problem, I guess.

The top left photo shows the original look of my denim shorts, it's actually a folded shorts.

Step 1: cut the stitches which secured the fold and unfold the denim. (top right photo)

After unfold my folded denim and this is how it looks like (top left)
Step 2: measure and decide how short you want your ripped shorts to be.
step 3: after you've decided, just cut about 1 inch then pull and tear the shorts. as what you can see on the top right photo.
step 4: repeat step 3 until you finished both side.
P/s: do not cut too much, it might turn out to be very very short & you might expose your butt butt.
and you don't have to do it meticulously, just show your freestyle talent. HAH...

you just need to wash your shorts a few times and you will get the fringie fringie. You can't see much fringes from my photo that's because I haven't washed it yet. hmmm I didn't add much details or studs nor spikes, just make it simple. I want it to be timeless and simple classic things are always timeless. Agree? ;)

Denim shorts, a must have in your wardrobe!

other inspired denim shorts look

Have a great weekends ahead!

It's her Birthday!

2012-08-28T14:32:00.000-07:00

Finals oh Finals... We gonna sit for our final exams in less than 2 weeks time. I've been busy preparing for finals and settle my internship matters. Yea, intern next sem... Pfftttt... hope it's gonna be as smooth as tau fu fa. Well, let's see. I believe I'll gain and learn a lot during my intern hmmm... and of course I can't wait to blog about my intern life and share with my juniors :))

I broke my promise, I told myself not to have bubble tea everyday, yet I visit Bubblean's almost everyday!

The environment of Bubblean's is just great enough for us to do our revision there. Of course Starbucks has better environment but too bad it's not available in Kampar. I should be glad about this because I don't have to go broke for drinking Starbucks everyday. HAH...

Combo of our group study photos

and today I went to Bubblean's AGAIN! not for revision this time but to celebrate one of my Bestie's Birthday.
It's Eleng's Birthday!
We had an awesome dinner in Xi Lai Restaurant. and just chill in Bubblean after that.

the tiny little flowers cake

as usual, I look Haggard! :( HATE IT

♥♥♥

Happy Birthday Eleng! Stay pretty always and let's plan for our graduation trip! woohoo...
Love you
HUGSSSS :))

Breakfast like a boss

2012-08-23T06:17:00.000-07:00

There's this saying, '' a great day starts with a great breakfast''. You agree?

This morning was crazy, my friends and I actually wake up around 6am to get ready and departed from Kampar at 7am and starts our breakfast journey... 7am and all the way to Ipoh just to get some awesome Dim Sum!
We went to this Foh San Dim Sum 富山点心, a well-known Dim Sum restaurant there. Our options was either Foh San Dim Sum or Ming Court Dim Sum, which are both right opposite of each other. We didn't have to make up our mind since Ming Court closed today.

This is my first time eating in Foh San, not sure about them. We order quite a lot, leave with super full stomach. and the best part is... we actually went to dai shue geok (Big Tree Foot) for 2nd round. I kinda enjoyed my time with them; Lai Kuan, Xiao Pei, Hui Shi, and adrian

Chrysanthemum tea

This is what we ordered

breakfast for 5

stir fried carrot cake

The carrot cake is nice but still incompatible with the Stir fried carrot cake from Dragon-i, but of course it's more pricey than this.

century egg porridge

Very smooth and mild century egg porridge... kinda like it :)

scrumptious egg tart!!

The egg tart is really really good, the best food here. 5 stars for it. lol

double skin steamed

Errr... this Hong Kong/ Macau dessert. Dounle skin steamed 双皮奶, my first try. It tastes a bit like sweet tau fu with mild ginger aroma and it taste a bit like century egg I think. The taste is bland and it's just not my thing. Don't like it.

Overall, the service is good, the renovation and the environment is magnificent. For Dim Sum rating, I still prefer Ming Court Dim Sum. :))

Lastly, a great breakfast doesn't guarantee a great day. I'm not having a good day here.

The day we found new love

2012-08-21T07:02:00.001-07:00

I just got back from the park, and I immediately turn on my laptop and start typing this post. I brought BOO to Westlake park for some puppy gathering. He seems so happy and of course utterly exhausted as well (he's sleeping next to me now).

I remember I used to walk to the park and look at friends' puppies and felt soo so envy, I wanted to have my own pet so badly at that time and this time... I have my own puppy with me to join the puppy gathering! Seriously feel great!

Almost 1 and half months, have ''him'' to be by my side. At least when I'm sad or scared, he's there for me and get to bully him when I'm bored. HAH...

I actually adopted him and my friend's dogs are adopted too. You should definitely choose adoption if you are planning to get a pet, regardless puppy, kitten, or whatever. Those homeless animals need your help, need a safe place to stay, HOME. You just have to accept them with an open heart and of course give unconditional care and love. Trust me, dog is like woman, they will even treat you 100 times better if you treat them good.

If you are worrying about their appearance, let me tell you something: every dog could look beautiful if they are being taken care well enough :))

BOO, silky terrier, male, 4 months old. hobby: eat his own shit

You can try SPCA or if you are a BIG fan of Golden Retriever then you should definitely check this out, MD Golden Rescue. It is an association which keen to provide rescue, rehabilitation and rehoming services to Golden Retrievers in Malaysia. If you found some abandoned Golden Retrievers, or you wish to adopt one, or you want to know more about Golden, then this is the place for you :)

Anyhow, think twice before you getting a pet, a high commitment is needed. You have to sacrifice you time, money and effort for them. Your pets can only depend on you, so makesure you can take good care of them but not ending up throw them at the road side.
P/S: adoption doesnt meant getting a free lunch, you need to pay too (Thanks shuang er for reminding)

Alright, back to the puppy gathering. I took some photos, so let the photos do the work.

Rudolf de Golden Retriever under MD golden rescue program, owned by Raymond

YangYang de 2nd Pomeranian adopted by WanYing

Sniff-ass-marathon, their way of saying Hi!

Hey I just met you, and this is crazy

my name is Milo, let's be friends maybe? LOL

Golden <3

they are having fun huh

WanYing and her YangYang and Hyperactive Sunny :)

a group photo of the owners and pets! TATA

Here comes the happy ending, I get to snapped the ''million dollar'' shot!

live like a macaroon :)

2012-08-17T11:12:00.000-07:00

Don't you think the color of macaroons is really nice?

I really enjoy looking at nice and colorful bakery and I love looking at all the perfume packaging and bottle in the perfume department. such an eye candy to me :)

That's why... live like a macaroon! be an eye candy, have a colorful life and of course stay sweet all the time!

Here comes my first OOTD. Outfit of the day!
Yes, I have decided to do my very own OOTD once or twice a week. I am totally impressed and inspired by those fashionista on LOOKBOOK. So yea, why not I try to do some ootd? sharing is caring right? hmm.. Moreover, I want to remind myself to doll up nicely each day, and stop staying in the comfort zone (don't use a comb etc).

Why only do it once or twice a week? because sadly I am not a super fashionista who have unlimited of assets in my wardrobe. enough said :)

OOTD 01

This is just a very simple outfit, easy to carry. You can put on some accessories to make it fancy I guess. I just want to make it comfy since I wore this to campus.
1) 3-strap top(champagne color), from Genuine by Kerr
2) vintage pleated maxi skirt, from EL online store
3) old-school white shoes, from Dr. Cardin (ps: my favorite shoes, it smells like crap HAH...)

act cute photo

Some other similar look I found in LOOKBOOK

chio right? anyway, enjoy your weekends and holidays peeps! ♥

After so long...

2012-08-03T10:27:00.001-07:00

This is gonna be a looonnggg post since I haven't been updating my blog for quite some time.

okay, how should I start. let me talk about my weight gained.
my weight is like a ''roller coaster''. When I first came to Kampar, my weight was54, eventually dropped to 52kg. and a sudden drop from 52kg to 46kg due to stress and busy lifestyle. hmmm and now..
from 46 gain back to 52kg! thanks to the contribution from Mcdonald's, domino's, Ochado, tastegood, mamak, loklok and so on. I take supper every night. Yes, EVERY NIGHT.
I shall stop this unhealthy lifestyle, but is full of temptations out there. how could I resist them?
Moreover, the situation is getting worse. Bubblean's open few days back, black ball open today, and don't forget ChaTime, tutti fruitti are gonna open soon.
haloo people, you think people in Kampar eat bubble/pearl instead of rice??
I'm not surprised if any one of those shop is gonna close down in few months time. I should stop drinking bubble tea everyday.
My friends said I look better with some meat now, I think I look a little sexier now, perhaps? LOL
but still I need to watch out my food intake. Yes people,
LESS sweetened beverage, MORE H20
LESS fast food, MORE home-cooked food
LESS oily food, MORE vege & fruits!
Too much of sweetened beverage will caused premature-aging. No one wants to look like 30 at the age of 20 right?
p/s: I'm actually drinking bubble tea when I'm typing this. HAH.. Cranberry Lemon Juice from black ball (less sugar less ice), not bad.

International Business presentation was.. hmm. That was like the most irritating presentation I've ever done. Yes, irritating because of the Miss IB lecturer. During the Q&A session, she keep asking me questions, but when I want to answer her questions she talks again. Haloo, that's call personal attacking session NOT Q&A session, if you ask a question and don't give a chance for me to answer then what's the point for you to ask me? for you to show how ''brilliant'' you are?
After a serial questions from her, I asked:
''what you want to ask actually?''
she answered: ''FAILED''
hahaaa..I FAILED or you? I wonder if you are married, I pity your husband seriously.
Even if you think you are that smart, please be humble a bit then you'll be a little likable.
You are not the one who giving me marks also.

Next I want to talk about, the most poison-est bug on earth- the Charlie bug a.k.a Rove Beetle
I found one on my bed few days back. It was on my leg and I swept it away and it ended up on my bed. I got a shock of my life when I saw it because I know how poisonous it is, saw news about it on Facebook.
I used a plastic cap to cover it and add a little insect spray. Some of my friends encountered it before too. So people, please take note.
Charlie bug
12 times more poisonous then Cobra snakes
contains hemolymph liquid which is gonna
if you got bitten by it, you skin will probably get infected and will get some scalding scars
Just in case if you meet it:
-blow it away if it's on your skin
-kill it with insect spray
-do not kill it with your own hands, that's the last thing you should do!
-even if it's dead, do not use you bare hands to take it, use tissue, newspaper or whatever because it does release poisonous liquid when it dies.

this is Charlie bug/ Rove Beetle

P/s: luckily my skin didn't get infected.

would like to share some of the thought I have
This is what I've always been telling myself:
1) walk at you own pace, do not put yourself into some unnecessary competition.
2) Instead of being jealous, envy, gossip about people for doing well in their life, why don't take those time to improve yourself?'
3) there's nothing you cannot do, it's either you want to do it or not

Current reminder to myself:
-STOP, please stop taking supper every night
-STOP drinking bubble tea
-STOP slacking
-please CLEAN UP your room.

my nails + my phone. I just love them so much <3 Chio??

What a birthday week

2012-07-08T09:12:00.002-07:00

Ultra ultra hectic week for me, yes, last week.
Assignments, flea market, my stuff, 2 mid-terms, and... my birthday!
I slept for 5 hours within 48 hours, from Tuesday to Wednesday. I was like a zombie.
2 mid terms falls on my birthday, 7th of July. how lucky... I don't think I did very well since I was so busy and exhausted for the whole week and my birthday mode was ON. I just want to enjoy my once a year BIG day...

Here comes a post about my birthday.
Mr.Loke celebrated with me on Friday instead of Saturday. Both of us when to Ipoh Jusco for movie and dinner. hmm...
the whole journey there was fine, we talked a bit even though I was half asleep ZzZZzzZz
but things turned ugly once we reached there. I was moody because of ''something'' and he was also angry and ABCDEFG..... I ended up crying in the mall. haha! and after awhile I wash my face and we just carry on our date as normal. We didn't really talk throughout the dinner, but one thing funny about us. Even though we were angry at each other but we still put food on each others' bowl. Perhaps this is what couples usually do, still care about each other no matter what happened.
Nothing much about the date, had dinner at Daorae (I requested) and watched Spider man (he requested).

my favorite Kimchi Soup!

I was a bit unhappy with him since he keep answering calls and text during the movie time. and.. he asked if I'm okay if there's no birthday cake for this year.

I answered: ''nevermine''
he said: '' you sure?''
I replied: '' or not what you want me to do? cry again?''
Honest speaking, I was quite unsatisfied with my birthday celebration at that moment. I was thinking ''oh shit, why is my birthday celebration so sad? he's going to surprise me not? I doubt so, he's so woody...''

We reached Kampar around 12.10am and he sent me home and thought of going up to my room and get my puppy then go get burger as our supper. and hahaa..
yay! miracle...
the moment I open the door, I see candle light in the dark and... ''happy Birthday to you.. Happ......"
Is my housemates! Indeed, I was really touched. thanks housemates, especially Yi Ching. love you lot :))
Mr.Loke requested to go home for awhile then I just go back to my room and play with my BOO while waiting for him. After 20-30 minutes I guess, he's back then we plan to go get my supper. As I walk step by step from 2nd floor to ground floor. I smell candle. and again... ''Happy Birthday to you, happy b....''
Another cake. Second surprise! This time is from another gang of friends :)
Okay, repeat the steps: wish, blow, cut, eat..
Okay that's all, double surprises. Didn't know he'll actually surprise me. lol

I look kinda skinny here.

BOO & I

Yi Ching <3

thank you Mr.Loke aka Tree

the boys

and the girls :) too bad Ee Ven and Mong Way weren't here.

nothing much, the next day.. miserably sit for 2 papers then night celebrated with my Uni mates.
Thanks peep! each and everyone of you have made my Birthday :)

love them

Last but not least... Thanks Mr.Loke. I Love you.

Mr.Loke and I :)

Oh I see! say hi to my puppy :))

2012-06-24T12:12:00.001-07:00

Someone thought I was having heavy makeup when I actually have nothing on my face, totally bare face.
I should be happy about it right? lol yay!

This shows that my complexion is still quite okay, even though I'm gonna go
through aging soon. (hell no! reminds me of my birthday)

My 100% naked face,no bb cream.

My painted face, not really clear

Actually, I think girls should have a little make up to enhance their facial features if necessary, but I definitely not a fan of heavy makeup. As what Calvin Klein quoted:

''The best thing is to look natural, but it takes makeup to look natural''

Indeed, you need a little cosmetics to conceal your weakness, such as dark circle, mole maybe? These little makeup or trick can actually make you look fresh and presentable, instead of exposing your fatigue zombie face. but.... try to be natural.
please don't put 3-4 inches thick of foundation or BB cream, with 2-3 layers of fake lashes and tonnes of colors on your face. that's not flattering at all. Just a little bit will do, apply moderately, don't paint your face like a coloring book. Okay,this is just my opinion. hmm.. I just think too much of makeup is scary. that's it.
I want to put on make up to class sometimes, want to use my eyeliners before it dries up for not using it. If and only if I can wake up extra early to do so. and now I already have to wake up early to feed my puppy. YESHH.... I have a puppy now and I named him as BOO.

why Boo? because I was trying to show him some puppy videos on YouTube and I saw this video of a super cute Pomeranian named Boo. why not just name him BOO? hah.. so yea! say hi to BOO :))

I feel so stressed up for the first few days, because I seriously don't know how to handle him, especially he's so tiny and weak. I cried that day because he was sick, vomited, I feel so bad about it.

After a week with BOO, I started to get used to it, started to know how to handle his shit, pee, food better.

Guess what? he has his own emotions too, knows how to cry, get angry and all. He will start crying when I'm out of his sight. Such a baby right?

I'm completely feel glad to have him now, I believe he'll enlighten my life and fill up the emptiness of my heart.

love you BOO <3

Why men love Bitches?

2012-06-15T06:58:00.001-07:00

Why men love Bitches? Have you ever thought of this?
Anyway, this is just a book title, a book I read during my sembreak. Not bad at all!
There's 2 types of girls in this book,

the bitch vs the nice girl.

The ''bitches'' in this book is not referring to those typical bitch as you expected. The ''bitches'' in this book is a girl who love herself more than her man; someone who can stand on her on ground, know what she wants in life, fully control of her own life instead of being control by men.

While, the nice girl is someone who doesn't have the presence of mind, needy and sticky and obviously love her man more than herself and overcompensate.
hmmm, I guess most of the girls out there are in the nice girl category; and this book give guidelines and ''wake up call'' to those super nice girl in relationships.

Some of the advices by Sherry Argov:
1) Whenever a women requires too many things from a man, he'll resent it. Let him give what he wants to give freely; then observe who he is. (it's about time, effort, and how he treats you, nothing to do with luxury gift here)

2)When he takes you for granted and nagging doesn't work then it's time to back off.

3)Human always want what they can't have, this is true; you should never give 100% of you to your men, and he'll always pursue you

4)A beautiful women can look ugly in the eyes of a man if she's very insecure; be demeanor and confident all the time and this will convince him that you are gorgeous, hmm..regardless you are a size 2 or size 12 I guess?

No point telling you all the gist of this book. You should read it! :)
I finished it in 5 days, it's considered quite fast for a slow reader like me.

owh! I bought this asymmetrical skirt from an online store. RM38 inclusive of postage. super reasonable, but only for this item, the rest isn't that cheap. Chio?

Just got back from Ipoh with Mr.Loke. We get to go on dates on last and this weekends, this is a promise from him since we didn't get to meet each other during the whole sembreak.

new in town, say hello!

2012-06-09T02:37:00.000-07:00

Kampar is getting crowded. students everywhere, especially bus stop, and during dinner time. sigh...
Here is not a small town anymore, it's becoming like a city. A city without shopping mall, cinema, Starbucks and the good. lol

okay, this is not my main point. There are a lot of girls shop online these days, and there are even more online store on the net. It's seriously very convenient to shop online, I do online shopping tooo! and you get to get unique pieces at reasonable price (at least cheaper than those selling in the mall right?)
so yea...

The rendezvous

2012-05-19T20:25:00.000-07:00

A dinner outing with my form6 friends at Betty's Midwest Kitchen. The restaurant is popular I guess, full of customers dining in and we waited for more than half an hour. Betty's doesn't take reservation, so yea you have to wait if you want to eat there. The food was okay, probably meat lover would love it.
It's a sinful place, please don't go if you are on diet. haha

Had fun with them, really. Talked about all the funny stuff happened during form6, and updated each other about our current life. I kinda miss my form6 life, its just so simple.
Glad that we are still in touch and we are willing to make an effort to meet up whenever we could :)

the not so yummy 'meat loaf'

the scrumptious cheesy 'dog food'

forever cheerful Ching

lol
look at shaun's face :p

Di Sern, ermm dissecting our 'juicy lucy'

What's lost can be found?

2012-05-18T01:29:00.000-07:00

Looking at those old conversations we had and compare it with the current one, it really gimme a massive heartache. We used to chat, tease each other, laugh and now is all about argument, anger, frustration. Things change in the blink of eyes, no?

we are handsome

2012-05-15T21:05:00.000-07:00

The pictures below are We Are Handsome 2012 collection, THE ROMANTIC . Really love the way they dolled up the models. classy side pin up soft curl and the crazy eyebrown! I really love thick eyebrown :)
The timelessly sexy and sophisticated shape and the daring concept (add in animals print on swimsuit) it has.

a look to die for

I would like to wear this to swim (if I can swim)

part of the collection

Chio right?

Happy Monster day!

2012-05-13T21:05:00.000-07:00

Happy Monster day! Oopsy.. I mean happy Mother's day.

I did enjoyed the photo session and food with them. Our meal just perfectly completed with the chocolate cake from ''the slice of heaven'' and the green tea cake from ''RT''! Isn't it awesome?

Yesterday was also the 31st anniversary of my uncle and aunt's marriage. Happy for them. 31 years of marriage, is never easy.

the ladies

irreplaceable:)

A pic with mummy! Without her I wouldn't be here typing this entry (of course with the help from my dad) I'm truly thankful. I am fair, I'm quite good looking ahemm ahemm, and I'm tall (not from her)and..I love hugging and kissing her, she's so round, so comfy to hug just like a fluffy pillow!

I LOVE YOU, MUM!

p/s: the awkward moment when we light up the mother's day cake, my aunt starts singing ''happy birthday to y...........''
so cute!

Why you no speak english?

2012-05-11T21:38:00.000-07:00

"Joselyn, can help me to write this application letter? '' Joselyn, can help me to check my assignment ?''

I have encountered quite a number of these.
First and foremost, I don't speak neither write perfect English like an English professor but I have the tendency to self-help, try and I make effort to improve.
I usually said ok to them. I don't mind lending my hand, not asking for 10k from me, so this is definitely something I can afford to help.
This is not good for you in the long run, instead of asking for help constantly why don't change? Please don't give yourself excuse such as ' I don't speak English at home'
Let me acknowledge you, I don't speak English at home too.

At my worst case, a person just said '' I need this, please help me to write''. WITHOUT any attempt to write a draft.

I remember I took this subject, the tutor speaks terrible terrible English, and he said ' forgive me, I just graduated and I haven't master my English.'
I dropped that subject the very next day. His excuse is totally unacceptable.

I am not mocking anyone, I just hope people can address this issue seriously.
Please try, you can glean from reading.
