Discover

Time is precious. Have you ever spent hours at a time in front of the computer, browsing the Internet, signing in Facebook, play a game, skype with some friends, but towards the end of the day, you don't remember doing anything "productive" at all? In fact, you felt you have wasted time. I don't know about you, but I used to find myself in that situation almost all the time. 9 out of 10 times, after I finally get off my laptop, the guilt comes.

Not so much anymore. I feel nowadays, when I'm online, what I do is I'll go "discover". I secretly (not so secret anymore, is it?) pride myself in this. Usually, I'm the person who looks for new food to eat in town, new boutiques, new websites, new photoshop tutorials, new blogs, new DIY crafts etc. You get my point. The few things I'm less interested in are gadgets and technology and perhaps movies, but what I  am interested in, more than compensate for my lack of it in certain fields in my opinion. Not to say I'm proud of it or anything.


So I'm thinking, maybe (a big maybe) I should do a weekly post on my new discoveries. It could be anything, I want it to be flexible, so that I don't feel too pressured to post something. Maybe, every Friday or so?  What should be in my first "FRESH FINDS FRIDAY" post? *thoughtful*
The reason simply being I want people to feel this:

ok, so stay tuned to see if I really end up wanting to do this project!
it's a big deal because this would need commitment.

ps: In case I'm really signing up for this, can anyone come up with a better name than "Fresh Finds Friday" ? It sounds a bit tacky, but that's the best I could come up with at the moment. Any help? 

Purple Brown

Short photo update, in case you didn't see it on my Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. Heh.

I was more than surprised to see this colour. I didn't expect it'll be so bright under the sunlight! It's better than expected and its my favourite colour so far! Coincidentally, this hair matches the colour of my CK spectacle frame and my new sunnies! Double the love. I don't think I'll ever go back to light brown again. 

I can even pull off a punkish look with this hair, HI ;)

Shopping trip;

Post on my recent splurge. I hope I don't come off as show-off or whatnot. Just pretty happy with the purchases and I'm here to share it with you guys  ♥  I hope you guys share the same love as me for these darlings below!

1. Denim Zip Bralet
2. Crop Tee
3.Red 50s' Classic Sunglasses

TOPSHOP. My recent fashion fad: Cropped tees and bralets. How can anyone not love them? They fall in the right place just above your waist. I think it's one of my favourite new trend since the time when collars with metal tips were everyone's must-haves. I'm not certain whether they still are in trend, but I need to have them (tops with metal tips) in my closet soon.

DIVA. I also bought something from Sunway Pyramid's DIVA the other day, but I can't seem to find it on their webpage, so yeah, I can't make a collage out of it, unfortunately. It was a really pretty teal-coloured feather earrings, and the best part is I bought it during their sale! From RM36, to only RM15! How awesome is that? They were having this "BUY TWO FOR 30" promotion, and if it wasn't for Mao (she bought the second accessory), I wouldn't have gotten the darlings at such great price! ♥ 

1 & 2. Bershka tulle back bandeaus 

BERSHKA. I absolutely adore the bandeau in neon pink. Perfect to wear it under those sleeveless loose jersey tops. I bought them in both black and pink though, because I can't decide which I like better. Haha. Besides, both  are rather easy to match with my clothes, so its not like I'm wasting or anything *defensive* ;)

1. Round Sunglasses

2.Tunic with Cut Out Side  

ASOS. I've started online shopping with my mum's credit card a few years back, but then I stopped right away after the first two experiences because some suspicious transactions were made after my purchase. Started again this year with my own card, not credit but debit. I personally think it's safer, but I don't know for sure. Anw, couldn't resist these babys , and my heart told me to get them. So, I did.

Now all I'm waiting for is for them to safely arrive at my doorsteps on/before 11th June. I sincerely hope nothing goes wrong with the delivery. Not enough trust in Malaysia's post system. : /

updates

You know how few weeks ago, I said I'll blog more once I'm a "free bird"? I realize I have a problem. Because once finals were really over, I'd been going out so constantly, the only time I'm home is when I want to sleep. The next morning would be packed with plans and outings again. The next day would be the same.

At least that's how it'd been these few days. Maybe things will be another story next week around, when all me and few of my buddies have, is each other. Not that I'm complaining. I rather this for some time, before I go take up a part time job once I head back to JB. I need the break!

Updates on the last three days:


1.Dyed my hair.
 Yes,really, again.This time by my dear MAO. In two years, I've dyed it a total of 4 times. What a surprise my hair is all dull and dried out. Anyway, I felt I really did step out of my comfort zone this time. Purplish Brown. Ha! I was kidding about the comfort zone part, I'll always stick to some sort of brown. I would never wander too much away from "safe" tones.  Blond or green or flaring red or something crazy just isn't me. I'm boring like that ;)

2.BBQ with college mateys.

I regret to say this...but I wasn't really buddies with my college friends until the end of the last semester. We're not BFFS right now, but at least it was better. I felt it was my fault that we never got to know each other very well; me and Natalie had mainly kept to ourselves most of the time because we weren't all that fantastic mingling with new crowds.

Things turned a little different this year though. I really believe it's 'cuz of Twitter. Suddenly, everyone in the class has an account. From there, we progressed. The first outing for me with my college mates was to IKEA. Meatballs/Apple Crumble/Cheesecake/Chicken Wings/Sausages any one? That day, I really did finally feel I'm part of the class. :)

As I was saying, BBQ. Possibly the last class gathering... Here goes a photo:

BBQ gathering at MY PLACE APARTMENT.

3.Karaoke Session
Went singing with some of the buddies right after their exams were over (we end on different days), and had a great time! Picked few songs we have never heard in a super long time like "HOLLABACK GIRL- Gwen Stefani" and "FERGALICIOUS- Fergie" . Boy, wasn't that fun! I bet the boyf was rolling his eyes all the while at the back when we were having a good time belting out those songs. He can't take songs like that because he's born in the wrong age. The music he listens to, you'll think he came out of the womb the same time as my parents. Shakes head.

4.Went shopping
Multiple times. You would have thought I'm no longer going Taiwan. You know how in Taiwan, most of the clothes (really nice ones too!) are rather cheap? Really, I mean I've never bought pretty clothings at a lower price anywhere.  Sure, qualities aren't assured, and in most shops, you can't try them on. But since I'm a "Free-sized", its pretty worth it for me, and I really don't mind much about the quality because I get bored of certain style pretty quickly, so I'll keep replacing them with new ones.

As I was saying, shopping. Bought RM250 worth of clothes in just three days. Yikes. I'll show you guys the stuff in another post.

5.Packed my belongings
Yes, I've packed almost all my stuff into the cardboxes. Today is 1st of June. I'm only moving out on the 23rd. Almost a month earlier. Haha. Somehow, I'm really hyped about moving out from my room, and I genuinely like packing for some reason. Some of my friends like YY and Natalie didn't get it. Nat is even worse, she's going back tomorrow, but she managed to procrastinate and just started really packing just now. I don't know how she does it! Gee.


OK. Long enough to be a uber boring post already.
Bye.

Over;

The very much anticipated day finally arrived. One and the half years flashed pass, and as of 29/5/12 , I am officially done and over with A Levels. The relief, I'm telling you, it's more than I imagined. The past weeks hadn't been all very smooth. The papers were tough, and the heart, anxious and scared. I dare say the possibility of not reaching the University's entry requirements haunts everyone, and it wouldn't go away until Results Day, on 13th August. For now, we wait. 

and wait.

Oh heck, let's just make the best out it and go have some well-deserved fun!

In my case, self-rewarding shopping trips and oozing good food! Went to Midvalley with Natalie after the papers. Was I glad I went!  At long last, I got my beloved bralette from Topshop. I'd posted a photo of it on Instagram, go see, go see! ;) A firm tummy is all I need to bring the bralette full justice. Not working for it at the moment, but I promise,  it shall come! Give me some time. Maybe in a week or two. 

And then the food! All through the exam period, all I've eaten was food from college cafeteria, ASIA CAFE (AC) and McDonalds. Had been rotating between that three places. True, AC does have a lot to choose from, but I got sick of it quick enough. The same place over and over again. Ahh. No more days like that!

Treated myself better right after the finals, and of course, for that, I can't miss out SUSHI ZANMAI.

Mad love the place. Cheap awesome Japanese food. Yums.

Sorry, I only have three photos. Me and Natalie ordered a few more actually, but honestly, we're too distracted by the food in front of us. When was the last time we had a good meal? I don't remember! We ordered grilled (I think) salmon, and their Chocolate Banana Parfait. Do I really need to say how absolutely yum they were? It's literally foodgasm.

Going back there real soon! Cannot wait! The next trip we'll be able to afford more because next time around, we'll have a RM20 voucher with us. Yippees! More Tamago Mentais please! <3

Hiatus

Hi again you lovely earthlings! Last two weeks, I'd been feelin really bloggy, and had posted about 5 posts in 2 weeks, and that is really a record I'm pretty proud of! Aha! Sadly, I wil be On hiatus from tomorrow onwards until at least 29th May, the last day of my finals (wheepee!) . After then, be expect to see a lot of me! So often u'll even find me a tad annoying and maybe stoop checking out my blog :'( anywayyyy, more posts, I promise. The moment when I'm a free bird.

outfit posts;

Diamante studded  shorts: Forever 21 

Starry cropped top: Taiwan.

 Top: Birthday gift from HuanYi

Locket Necklace: Vincci Accessories.

Hello sweet earthlings. This would be a very short post. Just thinking maybe I'll tell you guys I'll start posting some outfit posts soon (and by soon, I mean after my finals). I feel its quite wasteful to put in the effort to wear nice clothes, but not document it. So here, expect to see more photos soon, and this time this is a real promise. Haha. As for now, two simple photos first. Not much, but hey, its a start!

    Oversized top: Forever 21

I'll try to keep the posts coming! ;) And oh, my darling friends, please do not find me annoying if I asked you to take a picture or two or three or a dozen of me in my outfits. Teehee! ;) Love you berry much. Nighty night peeps!

Dread and excitement

Hi, another picture of me at Bentley's Music before a long wordy ass blog entry. again.

Today marks the first day of May, and it brings a mingle of dread and excitement. It's relieving because I'm going to graduate from college in about a month's time (finally!), and troubling because, in two weeks I'll be having my finals. One and the half year of extreme boredom/stress/study load just for the upcoming exams. Things cannot be more stress-inducing than right now. Gee. Two weeks. That's a lot to take in. First paper would be Mathematics, and lucky too because I'm one who prefers to get over with her worst subject as fast as time allows.


I really cannot wait to graduate from this course. Not that it's all a bumpy road throughout, it's just., well I'm really sick of it already. This course isn't really for me in the first place. I should have taken SAM like I was told to, and life would be much easier. I think. Now, now, I'm not saying SAM is easy. I'm just implementing that CAL is way harder as our results' is 100% examination-based, and that's not very good news for me because...are you serious? 100%? For Christ's sake. Anyway, too late to realize that now. Uh, let's just let nature(and some good karma) take its course.


The days after graduation... WOOHOO! I have quite a few things planned out already. I'm going to go on a roadtrip, a overseas trip, learn how to cook, sew, make DIY cards, drive around, look for new makan place, maybe take up some part time, sleep late, have fun, make a scrapbook,  see my buddies off to the airports,  take plenty of photos, watch movies I've missed out since I was 10, go out for dates, take up a new sport, put plenty of facial masks, start a small business, master my Photoshop skills, and a mission to complete all that. So, OK. It's more than just a few things, and even thinking about it is a little taxing. Don't you fear though, I have more than 6 months to chill before I finally fly off to university!


University. Geez. The last I looked back, I was only a sweaty pudgy primary school girl stealing food from people's lunch box and running around chasing boys. Ugh, just thinking back makes me cringe. I mean, really? No wonder my old mates still calls me a boy up till today. Anyway, I don't know how the years past, but here I am, almost 19, happy with life, and going to a university. It's unreal. I'm taking Architecture, by the way, and I'm really quite excited about it. I finally found a course that I am whole-heartedly sure that I would love!
