Boost

On new year eve,I woke up with a feeling that 2015 is going to be a great year for me. Maybe it is because of my birthday month. I have a mix feeling about my birthday. I am excited and sad at the same time. Why is it coming so fast? Why am I becoming old so fast? 

Anyway, I have decided to try to eat clean. I know it is not easy and I don't set up the hope that high but at least I try. Let's start with a small step. My coach told me, we have to take protein after exercise to repair back the tissues. The problem is the shake drink for a month is expensive to me. So I looked on other option.

Boost Juice. It provides healthy drink for burning calories, low fat smoothies and also the best part is it has protein drink! I'm not a bit fan of fruits and juices because I always choose chocolate over something else.

But I decided to give it a try as it is good for health. I chose Banana Buzz and my sister chose Berry Crush. The first sip was awesome. I like it instantly! It taste creamy and more like Vanilla ice cream! I tasted the Berry Crush but nah..not much of my liking so I am gonna stick with Banana Buzz for the time being. 

The reason why I said it was a small step for me because I like to drink Chatime a lot. It is so good but highly in sugar. So I try to switch to more healthier drink that leads me to Boost Juice. I am glad I have made that decision.

Picture of me and my sister drinking our juices while doing some sales shopping. Tried to take good pictures but too many people were looking at me while waiting for their turn. Enjoy our not so comfortable pictures pose everyone! LOL

Lost

Yesterday I met my old friend from MRSM. It was a fun hang out with her. She looked different from the last time we met which was a few years ago. We talked about ourselves a lot. We talked about our other old friends too which were majorly married. Then she talked about her goals. Then it suddenly hit me. I have no goals.

I only want happiness in mind but that's not real goal. I mean, where I want to be in the next five years? I have no plan. She said she wanted to marry a loving husband in two years time but me? I have no plan to get married anytime soon and also in coming few years too. 

She told me she could not wait to finish her final project so that she could focus on her career because she knew what she wanted to become. How bout me? I don't know what I want to become. I don't know if becoming a lecture is what I really ever wanted. I've tried, trust me to find myself but I'm still lost. All I know I'm living in a cruel world where I don't know if I ever been accepted to find my place.

I'm so frustrated with myself. Suddenly I feel like I'm a shame for a person who always love me. Sorry for I have nothing for you to be proud of. I was before but not anymore. What happen to a girl who always know what she is doing?  I really really don't know. 

I am sorry.

Used Products

Hi everyone! First of all I would like to apologize for bad lighting pictures and with zero editing skills , I don't know how to make them look better. I try to get as much as natural lighting I can. But with recent weather of raining and next minutes it's nice and sunny, it's really hard to predict. 

 

 

  

So move to the products that I've used, I'm not a products junkie as I'm lazy to apply them all but here are some that I manage to use in daily basis. I have this yellow basket where I keep products that I think worth for previews and comments.

• Loreal Anti-Hair Fall Shampoo really works well for my hair. It makes my hair feel so smooth and I always buy the big size as it last more than a month to me. 

• As what I've said before, my skin is so sensitive that I can't use normal soap for bathing as my skin will turn red and itchy. Eucerin Wash lotion is specially for sensitive skin like mine! It works well and leave my skin without drying out but the down part is it's a bit pricey.

• Garnier Pure Active Foam really did a great job to my face and I kept repurchasing this. Pimples vanish just a day only!

• Veet shower hair removal cream doesn't works for me. It leaves my skin so dry even though it comes with moisturize complex. Not gonna buy this again for sure.

• Reason why I bought this Clean & Clear face wash is because the colour is so attractive with green apples scent. But too bad it doesn't works well as it looks. Pimples starting to grow after I wash my face with this.

• Both spray deodorant from Nivea don't last long to me. I also don't like the smell of them. No repurchasing.

• The Nivea deodorant stick works just fine to me. Not too bad but not too good.

• The liquid deodorants works the best and my favorite is the invisible for black and white as it leave no mark on my shirts and blouses. Good!

• Both Vaseline and Nivea body lotion works just fine for me. They don't absorb much on my skin and sticky which I hate it the most. Not gonna buy these again. 

• Simple Oil Balancing Moisturizer works like magic on my face. It absorb quickly to my skin and prevent my face from oily.

• Bio-Oil. No words for this but PERFECT! It reduces the dark spot and scar but too pricey.

• I've been wearing contact lens for about five months and this Complete Solution works well. They don't irritate my eyes and did great job in cleaning my lens. Bought two size. One for my room and one for me to carry wherever I go.

• I don't know if this Ayur Slim product works well on me. I only eat it for a month and don't repurchase it because I believe in exercise rather relying on diet pills. But it still helps me with digestion though.

• The red small bottle is a cream lotion for super sensitive skin and works like magic. It's really hard to find it in pharmacies. I have to order it two weeks earlier before I get it.Plus it's only RM7! 

• Aqua Lily Body Mist from Body Shop is my current favorite. It smells so good and it last me the whole day!

• Sweet Honesty from Avon is always my all time favorite scent. Definitely gonna use this for the rest of my life.

Fit Malaysia 2014

Hi guys! I know it's a late update but with works & study & moving to a new house, it's hard for me to steal the time to blog. So sorry bout that. On early of September my sister & I went to a fitness program held at Dataran Merdeka. We decided to wake up early but well it's hard to wake up early especially on weekends. Who does that anyway? LOL.

We went there by LRT and stopped at Masjid Jamek. It was 10mins of walking distance from LRT Masjid Jamek to Dataran Merdeka. 

 

It got so many programs that we could join but since Nina & I love Zumba so much, we decided to go for it.

  

We were very lucky because the day was great & we got the chance to meet new people with different backgrounds. 

 

Everyone seemed to have a great time there and to my surprise the place was rubbish free. Everyone were acting very good by throwing the rubbish in the dustbins that were provided by the organizer. 

 

One of the best reason we joined this program was because everything were free! We got free Revive Isotonic drink , mineral water and food for free. 

 

Later after we were done with Zumba, we met a few of students who were doing interviews for their school projects. So here's the picture of Nina being interviewed by them. Both of them are Lim Kok Wing students & they were very nice!

 

The place got so much things going on at the same time. There was a group of musician playing their drums & everything. We watched it for a few minutes & enjoyed the music & it was fun! 

 

Picture of Nina trying to capture the nice view of sky.

 

After 4 hours, we were very hungry. So Nina & me went for our lunch & later we headed home because we were both very exhausted. 

The best part of this day was, I got to spend with Nina for our sisters bonding and had a lot fun. It was a great day & I'm blessed!

Thanks!

New house Smaller Room

 Hey everyone!

Gosh it seems like ages since I posted the last post! Life is like hectic lately for me with work and study. I'm still on my exam week and will be taking my next paper on this coming 21st August while struggling to pay for college. I have decided not to take any loan for college but so far it has been pretty good. 

My family and I will be moving to a new house by the end of this month which I'm so excited about. But the only bit 'thumbs down' is I will be getting smaller room and my sisters will get bigger room. The reason why they get the bigger one is because they share it together and I, well don't like to share haha. So I'm gonna make the best of it!

I want my room to be cozy because I love it when it's raining with hot chocolate and books on my bed. It's a very perfect moment for me and I do enjoy my own company. I want my wall room to be painted with soft color and I'm thinking mint green will be great. And the best part of room decoration is the lights!

 

These flowery lights are so pretty and rise up the feminine side of every lady. Where can I find these?

Look at those lights ! It's romantic and dreamy. 

Since my room is small so I need to switch to single bed and I'm starting to save my money so I can buy a new one. I'm surveying where I can get cheap single bed and if you guys know where I can find it except on Ikea , please share. 

This picture gives great inspiration for me to decorate my room with lights on the top of the bed and plus with scented lights. Perfecto!

Thanks for reading!

Shy and afraid

Hi everyone. How’s your weekend? Today is the 11^th day of 2014 so I think it’s not too late for me to wish you guys HAPPY NEW YEAR!

 Of course, when it comes to a new start everyone has their own resolutions. I wanted to blog about my new resolutions too but we all know that sooner or later they will be thrown out from the windows.  But I’m not saying you can’t have your resolutions but consistence is the key which of course it’s not easy to be done.  

As I look through my 2013, it was pretty awesome for me. I wanted to list one by one of them but I’ll bore you guys.  But last week I realized that 2013 had taught me one of the most important things in life.  

Some might don’t know that I was really-really a shy person and afraid. Blame it on my old lifestyle but as I grow older, it gets better but I’m still afraid when I go to new place, new zone or new person that I just randomly meet.

It happened when I went to a shop and wanted to ask about how I can use my membership card somewhere else. But I was too afraid that I will embarrass myself in front bunch people that will think I was such a lame person. So I ended up just “never mind I’ll google it at home” and then I forgot about it.

It happened again and again whenever I went to a new zone. Like in a hotel when I wanted to drink cappuccino but I didn’t know how to use the machine and there were like 7-8 person standing nearby there enjoying the morning coffee drink.  And again I failed myself by saying “never mind” instead of just ask one of them how I can use the machine. 

I went home and I was frustrated with myself. Later I got a job and many foreigners from Australia, USA, Indonesia, Yemen and more work there too. They are very friendly and whenever we were in the same lift they will ask “how are you, how’s your day” and such. And one thing I realized was they are not afraid to ask question even though it’s the silliest question ever. It’s a new place, new zone, new people but they are not afraid to smile and ask me any random questions.

And now I can proudly say that I’m not the old me anymore. Whenever  I feel afraid and shy I keep telling myself that to always speak my mind, be confident, don’t afraid to be wrong because everyone did it also and they can think whatever they want because I’m helping myself to be better me.

Thank you for reading. XOXO.

Hot Topic : Food!

YES! There's got to be reason why I am who I am today. I'm talking about my weight guys. LOL. I've decided to post about this topic because well, first everyone loves food. Second there are so many food pictures in my phone gallery (so sorry of the pictures' quality) because (call me mental illness whatever) I like to snap picture of my meals. It's nothing personal, I'm just having the moment when the food is served. And I wanna share some of my favorite food that I'd tried.

I like western food and seafood so warning for those who don't like it.

SUNGAI CONGKAK

It happened when my family and I went to Sungai Congkak for school project. Woke up in the morning feeling hungry, we went to the nearest stall in search for breakfast. We thought we would have Nasi Lemak or else. But to our surprised, that place only serve burgers and Roti John and Maggie goreng only. Without any choices we ordered burgers and Roti John. The food was fine. The bread was bit crunchy and soft and we can request for extra sauce. Eventhough the food was just fine but the owner was friendly and nice. So yeay for that. Too bad I can't remember the name of the stall. But it's situated at the top and end of the road of Sg. Congkak.

I'll rate this food 3/5! 

OLD TOWN

For those who had followed me on Facebook and Instagram would have known that I eat this a lot! OMGosh it's the best Curry Mee in the world! I like this very much. The curry was well balanced and not too spicy. My sister also love this Curry Mee too. And the chicken was so delicious. I guess it must be the honey that make it tasted so good? I don't know. I'm not good in figuring this things out. But when you order for the lunch set the curry is lesser than the normal price. Have no fear, it's still tasted the same!

I usually eat it with Pepsi float for my drink to make it tastier. So I'll rate this 5/5 !

PENANG NYONYA

It was when me and my boyfriend were going to watch movie but we reached there early. So we decided to dine first. We were in between to choose Chicken Rice Shop or Penang Nyonya. He asked me and I chose Penang Nyonya for no reason actually. LOL. I ordered one set for one person which had Nasi Lemak & Ice Kacang & ice tea for drink.

I'm not a big fan of ice kacang so I gave it to him and he said it tasted good. Then I decided to give it a try. It was good but still not a big fan of ice kacang anyway.

Whenever I went for a restaurant which served Nasi Lemak, I will definitely try it. Because Nasi Lemak is my favourite food besides seafood and western food. The serving was "oh my god I can't wait to eat it" but it was so so only. Not too bad not too good. We wished we had chosen Chicken Rice Shop instead of this one. I'll rate this 2/5!

FISH MANHATTAN

 I just had my convocation last month so we need to return the jubah and topi back after that. So after we had sent them we went to Setia Alam City Mall. I was so hungry( like always) so he decided to eat at the Fish Manhattan. I was beyond happy to hear that of course lol. We had same mind when we ordered same color drinks.

 

 

The left one is Gummy Bear which was blue at first and when he stirred it a bit it turned out green. And mine is Blue Lagoon. His drink tasted unique and yummy and mine tasted just a regular float. Why I always make bad decision? -.-'

He ordered Grilled Gala Platter for our lunch. It was delicious! Seafood & western? Great combo! This picture makes me hungry again. How I wish this one is in front of me right now -.-' . But it's very pricey in Malaysia. It had cost us RM82++ for just two drinks and this. So I decide to have it for celebration only.

I'll rate this 5/5 !

MOHD CHAN RESTAURANT

We always wanted to try to eat here but we didn't have much time to go there. But later we finally got to go there and ate! He likes seafood too. So we ordered Dry Spicy Lala , Ketam Sos Special , Baby Kailan Masak Sos Tiram and one plate of rice. The food was insanely delicious especially the crab one!! I really recommend for you guys to come here and check it out yourself!

 

We only ordered one plate of rice because I was a lil' bit full. But I finished them all anyway lol. We are planning to come here next time when we have the time to eat together.

I'll definitely rate this one 5/5! Thank you for reading. Xoxo.

Ins & Outs : Hectic

Before I continue with my post, I want to wish everyone Selamat Hari Raya Aidiladha to all muslim around the world. I just had yummy nasi impit and kuah kacang plus ayam goreng when I typed this cooked by my beloved grandma for my early dinner. Anyway, my life have been a bit hectic lately and with this kind of routine I’ve to scarify my time with family and friends. But I’m starting to love this kind of living style lately. Let me list my ins and outs:

Ins

Study

            Like what I’ve tweeted on Twitter, I’ve continued my study at OUM. I’m so excited to finally can take my favorite course and I love the new environment there. I get to know new people with different backgrounds and age. At first I thought our age gap is not too far because they look so young. Later I knew I was the youngest among them! One of them is as old as my mama. Oh my gosh so awet muda. I feel old because I look older than my age T-T

Job Interview.

            I went for job interview yesterday and my sister wanted to accompany me. So she had helped to overcome my nervous eventhough I didn’t feel so nervous at all but a tiny bit only. The interview was great but the terms are worrying me. After I’d done with it, I realized that I like to meet new people which was why I overcome my nervous very well. This had taught me to be calm in handling tough and difficult situations. Glad I’d made it.

Pet

            My uncle bought a cute little hamster about 3 weeks ago. It’s name is Boy but I don’t like it so I call it Grey ( Christian Grey, get it?LOL) . I’m so excited to finally have a pet cause I never had pet before! So whenever I’m around I’ll take care of it or else my uncle will. It’s so cute and tame. It doesn’t bite whenever I touch him . Love it!

BBQ

            We had barbeque with close family and friends the night before raya which means on Monday night. Nothing big but a little thing that make me happy with life. I love to be surrounded by family and friends. 

Outs.

Assignments

I still can’t get use to be a part time student. Yeay for not many classes but hell no for blend learning. Learning online is so boring for me. Plus no lectures to ask face to face whenever I want. Of course I can email them but I still prefer face to face learning. And now I’m having problem with my credit transfer. I just had my first class a week ago and the assignments’ dateline is so soon. Like OMGosh! I still don’t know what I’ve learnt! Sobs sobs..

Job

            Since I’m pursuing my study I need money for my college. So I need to find job after I’ve settled a few things more. I’m not good in multi-tasking. So I’m a bit worried if I can study and work at the same time. Maybe it’s time to challenge myself?

Vacation

            Lately , I’ve been busy going and back from KL-Banting-KL. I miss my free time with my sister and mama. Plus with so much work to be done in shortest time, I really need a vacation. I mean just a short getaway will be fine for me. Hopefully I’ll have that time soon!

Since I update most on Instagram so here's mine @rai901. XOXO !
