Superb Guy

So I've been spending my precious hours with this brilliant guy. Met him awhile back. When? Since degree started. Where? Uhm thru Google.  How? Whenever I needed a better explanation of..
Life?
Love?
Nope, none of the above.
(Oh gosh, who is this laaa?!)
Well at any time I needed an economist by my side. He'll be there.
He won't exactly be there. But I can reach him on the internet (wth, is she for serious?)
And you guys could too! Any future economists out there? Do click on the link if you are!

Introducing Khan Academy! (ekeleh, yes i know i'm lame but he is superb!)
I'm so thankful I found this 'online classroom/tuition'.
I like how you learn thru videos. Really makes me understand Economics better. From the Economics history to graphs and equations or what not. Everything is explained thru a video. It takes only a few minutes for a sub-topic. Rather than searching for answers from multiple websites, this takes the least of my time. I hate reading long essays, they tend to confuse me. For me, a summary of a theory is the best to interpret. Hehe, the less the better.

Okay, back to Khan. (since the econs online tutor is a guy, I assume he's Khan)
Seriously, I think I reach to him (Khan Academy) more than my friends! All thanks to finals. Goodbye social life, I'll see when I see you.

ps : We can learn anything from anywhere

Go Away Cicak!

 What is it like living on-campus accommodation and surrounded by Msia's rainforest? Oh, I can tell you how it is. Cicak (gecko), cockroaches, birds (my alarm clock) and even bats be living with you. From diploma years till now, I am still dealing with them. I'm alright with cockroaches but not cicak(s)! I loathe them.You know it's like they know you're scared of them so they'll be around more often. Sigh. I have had so many memories with them. They always seem to pop out in my life when I least expect it. Always giving me a heart attack. 

Once upon a time in Machang, a cicak was in my cup. Yeap, my cup guys. It decided to greet me early morning (when I'm half awake). Just when I wanted to get my breakfast done, I was about to grab my cup and I saw it staring at me. It wasn't even running away from me. As if it was his cup! Pfft. I was too scared to do anything so I woke my girls up.

'Babies, there's a cicak in my cup'
'What? Feezaaaa Halid' (not my fault cicak loves to kacau me)

All of us just stared at it, even moved the cup and yet it didn't move. We gave up and went to class. I was distracted in class tho, couldn't get it out of my mind. After class, I tried spraying Shieldtox. Failed. Even sprinkled hot water. Failed. At last, B just took the cup and threw the cicak out of the window. As simple as that, it was gone.  

My story with it doesn't end here guys. 

Now, this happened in Al's room (Notts). So it was that one particular night I decided not to hang at her room. As I was about to sleep, Al rang me.

'Babe, there's a cicak in my closet!'
'Closet, seriously?!'

Rushed to her room and we both just stared at the closet with hangers. Preparing ourselves for war! Well, obviously we didn't have the balls to shoo it out so Al had to call her floor-mate to do it. It managed to get out of the closet by itself. How? By flying/jumping out! Got the shock of our lives, shouted like mad. And yet it was still in the freaking room. Altho it was a baby cicak but oh god it was fast as a Puma. One moment it was at the corner, suddenly it's at the edge of the room.We moved the furnitures, everything was everywhere. At the end, the hall tutor helped us out. Finally! After the shouting and chaos, our cicakman saved us. 

Why you do this to me, cicak?
Look, even when I'm away from campus you're in our group chat. If you're not physically around, you'll somehow be mentally present!

Pity Nards had to deal with you all alone. Go away!

Just Blend and Drink

I'm a big fan of smoothies. Boost Juice, Juice Works, La Juiceria (current fav) but most of all homemade ones are the best. With my target for now to stay healthy and not get sick, I shall try to be more rajin to make smoothies every morning again. I used to make one everyday for breakfast and dinner (yeap, i was diligent once). Hmm is there any frozen smoothies in ice cubes here? Hehehe so I could just throw them in the blender and tadaa my smoothie is all done! 

I wish La Juiceria is my home. Have you guys tried it before? They offer cold-pressed juices and detox shots. I tried Goodness Green, PAM and Beet Aid. I love the Goodness Green the most. How I wish I have my own juice bar at home and say goodbye to self made juices/smoothies! Oh wells, life is not made to be easy.

Fact #1 : I don't like cutting fruits (the first to run from cut fruits duty) so I tend to grab bananas, strawberries and blueberries only for my smoothie.
It can be really boring at times if I have the same smoothie everyday. Pfft, I must not be lazy then. But today I was lucky, Dira made one for me. I love you sis. 
Recipe : Just blend 1 banana, 1/2 cup each blueberries and pineapple. Yummyy

What's the perfect juice/smoothie recipe?

stack of bowls

I get excited when it comes to girls day out, who doesn't?! Talking non stop, from peppy and interesting topics to another, never ending gossips (boys can never catch up) and just lepak with my girlfriends makes my day instantly. I love my girls, a lot. My university girlfriends and I got together for lunch at Boat Noodles in Empire Damansara. Since everyone raved about this place there's nothing I couldn't agree more. A bowl of chicken/beef noodles won't be enough. Had 2 spoonful of it and I'm on to the next bowl. If you love Asian noodles, give this a go!

Yeap, that's how small the portion is! RM 2 for each bowl.
 Can you have more than this? I bet!

Then we filled our day with selfies, selfies and more selfies (yeap, my girls were pretty amazed w my NX mini) and shopping! Ended our day at B's boyfriend's place for barbecue. Met new friends and his 7 hugeee cats, I'm not kidding. Not forgetting the most delicious meatballs I've ever tasted after Ikea's. Had a bunch of them, dang now I'm hungry.

3 years and counting, roommates ever since 2011 <3 
Parting our ways soon to pursue our degree but I know we'll keep in touch
I'll bloody annoy them through Whatsapp & Snapchat obviously!

KL Vintage Festival 2014

Lately, I've been loving the weather in KL. Reminds me of monsoon season in Machang.
Cloudy, windy and no sun. Ah, such a perfect sweater weather.
So my family and I checked out the Kuala Lumpur Vintage Festival since we won't be roasting under the scorching hot sun!
It was just a place filled with vintage stuff from clothes, bags, sunglasses, you name it all. It was heaven especially for my lil sis so all you vintage-lovers, I command you to check it out!

Amazing Lamb Puff (RM 15) & Homemade Sarsi (RM3.50)

Their kitchen is based in Ara Damansara and they also do delivery!

Pretty Aztec Clutch Bags at RM30

Vintage stuff everywhereeeeee!!

She found her perfect sunglasses, if only it comes with a perfect price :(

Just me enjoying the Sarsi. Yums

Since it's Merdeka weekend, I wore a camouflage jacket from Topshop to express my gratitude to our patriots of the country with a Bershka yellow top (p.s i wore it with the tag on,typical me *facepalm*) and my all time favourite shawl from Bidadari Contemporary.

I'm Back


Hello? I know it's been awhile. I've been away from this blog for awhile now ever since Ramadhan  I guess. If you're wondering why, I blame the lazy bug bites! Even my precious DSLR is not around,  makes it no fun to update. I can't be sharing my love towards products I'm adoring with no pictures! Hopefully my lil sis will return it as soon as possible. 

For the time being, I'll try to update with pics I have on my laptop because honestly I just miss blogging. 
Maybe even more pics on my life 
I find posting pics on social media more memorable as you'll stalk yourself more often 
Please don't tell me you don't scroll down your Instagram more than your iPhoto/Photo Library

VLOG : Jump Street


What's life without fun? So not long ago, Jump Street which is located in Petaling Jaya has just opened to public. It's a big warehouse just filled with trampolines! Ever had a dream of having one at home? Well now don't get on to that, just check out this well raved Jump Street. It's way better than getting one big trampoline when you have one whole warehouse of it. I must say I had a great time and it was one heck of a workout. You know how you're up for keep-fit sessions that requires fun, yes it is all about fun and sweat. Trust me, one whole hour is good enough. After jumping for a few minutes and a round of dodgeball I was already exhausted. So do bring along your water tumbler. I salute to those who could go for another round, great stamina you got there! Anyways, here's my vlog for you to see how amazing the place is, you'll be surprised by how much fun you'll have by just jumping around.

Vacation

Hello Everyone! A video is up on my youtube channel. It is all about my Penang Trip with the fam bam. Obviously I had fun, it's Penang. You can why I love Penang in the video. Hoping I'll have time to share the pictures I've captured as I'm entering university soon. My holidays are over already, pretty bumped about it but I gotta suck it up, just another sen and I am done! :)

Enjoy the video!

Feelings

Lately, I’m not sure what’s going on in my mind. Emotionally sensitive inside out just bring more thoughts countering my brain. Words coming out from people I love I take it personally. The hyper
happy child was once in me is not present, I’m sure it’s still there. Wondering what has dragged me to
this place full of negative thoughts.

Words captured by my ears, may bring me down as if I can’t go on with life. The feeling of running
away to the other side of the world for a better place. I know I am at the right place, I should be
thankful but I’m always asking for more.

Keep on pissing people off, pushing people away. My thoughts from the past were place deep inside
my heart have dugged out. I don’t filter my words, just splash it out without thinking just making me
wondering why am I like this?

Unwanted, unappreciated, lack of love or support and I can go on with more negative thoughts that I feel. I just don’t know why.

Writing this down it’s not to make people wonder what’s wrong with my life but I’m doing this to
 express what I feel and it’s not caused by anyone, don’t take it personal if you do. I just want to let it
out and I am actually feeling much more better.

Listing down what I’m feeling, thoughts being written instead of unwritten to drive me away from
negative thoughts by letting them out. Stepping away, I shall appreciate more where I am now. I love
my loved ones.

A Scam?

A random number called me, 03-2382-200 telling me they’re sending me a discount card from Touch n
 Go. For a second, I thought they’ve already send it and they’re just calling me up to explain what it is
actually. So why not just listen to their explanation? I just scored a discount card!

After he explained, he started asking for my details. He needed my address, identity card and my
account number! I asked where are you from again, he answered rudely. All this while I thought it was
free, he said no monthly or yearly fees but you need to pay RM 499 for delivery charges?! Hell no! The
weird thing is it’ll be deducted automatically from my account number.I said no to this and he kept
twisting my words. 

Weird huh? Well when he started asking for my account number I’m already curious. He said I know
you’re afraid it might be a prank or a scam. “I’ll send you my details later on Miss, will send my
identity card, my full name and the customer service number”. Dude I’ve said no, don’t be pushy
alright? I mean how weird it is to agree on something just on the phone? Where’s the form and usually
you need to sign to make it official!

I Need A Vacation



I’m missing the sandy beach, fresh air, salt water and the beautiful sunset scenery. Yes indeed I want or
to be precise I need a vacation. So that my semester break is complete before the new sen enter. Where
to next?

Those pictures above were 6 months ago. Went to Langkawi the whole fam bam. One of the popular
islands in Malaysia to snorkel. Got to swim with baby sharks and barracudas. Happy times there, and I
miss it.

Vacation is a way for us to exit ourself from the reality. Not saying I’m not loving life, I just wanna
enjoy life even better.
