The Weekend.....

The work week has passed and hopefully everyone has wrapped up their things on work, making your move to welcome the great weekends ahead. Time flies and already we are coming near to the end of June. Weekend is always precious for people at work, so sit back and relax, plan well for your days, go have mad fun and leisure times with your love one.

I'm feeling grateful this weekend as I've learned so much throughout the week, either on work matter or the relationship between people. Came across an article and the words inside somehow inspired me. It says:

"Do not chase for the trend. It is said that young people should always be the most fashionable one, but what makes you special is how the way you see things and be who you are. In the current materialistic society, in fact, the pursuit of fashion and trend has became the pursuit of money"

I guess many people are feeling miserable when come to the situation in differentiating NEEDS AND WANTS. Beware of getting yourself trapped in this situation, it will soon lead you to nowhere.

Weekend is always about leisure. So pamper yourself, do something out of the town. Its always best to leave the hustle city to grab some tranquility moment.

Have a beautiful and inspired weekend.

Changing...to The New Stage of Life

Hi peeps, it's been a while since my last post here....I have no choice but to drop all possible distractions to regain my 100% attention back to studies, to fight for my soon-to-complete degree course. It's been a hard time I would say, dealing with hundred and thousand of books and papers, lectures and never ever ending revision classes, a bit overwhelmed! *freaking out*

Time flies, after 3 months and now I'm once again coming back for good, hoping that my come back would bring more cheerful and inspiration blog to all readers (I know there might not be many of them just in case if ithappens to have anyone out there I still show my concern to them) ;-)

A little update on my current life, technically I've completed my Degree program and started off work as an AE, helping out Mr.T to manage his businesses. It was a brand new experience for me, unlike the past, this time it was a real life salary-base job, no more joking or doing things half-heartedly. I see this as my training stage before I can be well prepare to handle work outside without anyone's protection and guidance. So, yea, this is serious stuff!! Oh, did I just mention serious? As if never in my life that I've did something real serious compare to this, aiks :s

Don't feel like writing a long post tonite, BUT

there's gonna be a minor change in terms of the blog contents for the following post and in the future. Ain't you feeling excited already??

I'm desperately looking forward to it already ;-)

Tie the knot in Spring

Winter goes, and here come the bird sings along in Spring...

Happy Wedding to my eldest cousin sister in the Yap's Family.

V ' Day

Happy belated Valentine's Day!

People always ask me questions like:

"what does valentine's day mean to you?"

or

"how would you celebrate this special day with your love one?"

Well, my answer is pretty much the same...I don't take this day so serious anymore for like 5 years ago?? From my point of view, its just another day to boost up country economic, where every place and restaurant is crowded, you gotto move very fast, eat very fast to avoid people waiting for table...why do you have to get yourselves into trouble like this?!

I spent this day accompany Mr.T with his new project. We have quite a sweet time at his office and he surprised me with a small little gift. I didn't expect him to remember the day since he was so busy all these while.

Obviously, he did and to be frank I'm a bit surprise though o.O

For me, its about staying together with someone whom you truly love. It doesn't has to be candle light dinner or fancy pressie or wonderful surprises...you don't have to do all these to show how much love you have for him/her...even only in this specific day.

Still, I hope all of you have an enjoyable day with your love ones!

For him

xoxo

My Weekend

I have to admit that I'm not an outgoing person...I love to stay at home all the time instead of hang outside and stay under the hot sun ;-)

Believe me or not, there are millionz of good reasons to stay at home..it doesn't have to be boring all the time. In fact, there are lotz of things which you can do, just like me ==

1. Kick start your day with a healthy exercise, go for an early swim...good exercise, at the same time to keep you energetic for the whole day

2. make yourself a nice and healthy breakfast. Your menu may include garden salad, smoke bacon, sunny side up, sausage, and 2 pieces of bread or its even healthier if you choose to have wholemeal bread

3. For those who don't have maid at home like me, you may do some household chores. I like to do my own laundry, especially white color apparel which cannot be mix with other color to avoid color transfer. Besides, it can train my responsibility to handle all my stuff with care, to keep them in well condition so that they can last long

4. Cleaning out wardrobe. This is my top of the list in household chores. I always have so much fun in cleaning my wardrobe. Girls always want to look at their best, so we have to have an organised closet. Sort through the item and get rid of clothes you no longer needed. A little free space will help you find things easily and quickly or it may just give you reason to go shopping!

5. As a student like me, I'll tend to leave my school works and assignments until the weekend. Reason because I have classes 5 days in a row, and it all ends very late in the evening. By the time I reach home I'm already in a half death situation. So the best time to concentrate in my assignments will be the weekend, where I reckon my brain can function better after I have enough rest

6. Indulge yourself with a simple tea break. A combination of flower tea and cookies and pastry. This is time when you can sit back and relax after a busy afternoon. Call some friends to join you make it as a small gathering. Its the best time to gossip around and share information on fashion, make-up, and whatever you want to


7. Always keep yourselves updated with current news and trend. As a soon-to-graduate degree student, my next move will be stepping into the working environment; a truly new phase in life where I have to always be well prepared to overcome all kinds of problems which I may encountered to. Reading is always the best way to learn. So read more, learn more, gain more

8. Online shopping. Of course you don't want to stay outside yet you really need to do some shopping. Just a few simple steps: google out your desire stuff, place your order, make payment, and wait for the product to arrive at your door ^.~


9. Spend some quality time with your love ones. Together with your mummy, cook a simple and delicious dinner for the whole family. Enjoy the process; spending time with family is the utmost precious moment. No matter how bad it would be, family is always the closest one to you.

10. If you are attached and keen to have a nice and wonderful date, there are many which you can try. Rent or buy some DVDs or you can even download it from the net with all in HD! Cycling during the night is a splendid idea too. Cycle to the park with your partner, showering by the night star...perfect!!

Seems like I've got a long list on how I spend my weekend...oppssyy!
Trust me, the list still keep going ^^

All in all, staying at home doesn't have to be dull and gray...all you need is to put in some little effort and will to make things out for you. Its always about your own choice. Who knows you will come out with ideas that are much more better than mine ^.~

Have a great day ahead!!

What to do with old lingerie?

Today's topic is very rare...I guess people seldom share about how to dispose off old lingerie because they're too shy to bring up the topic and, lingerie is somehow very intimate stuff for girls and women. Not that I don't feel shy to write about this, what I think is very simple, I search for solution and I share what I've got. After all, its just about helping yourself and helping the others..a win-win situation :)

So I've been figuring out for sometimes on how to get rid of my old lingeries which already un-fit, out of shape(due to lack of washing lingerie skill) and I can't get any solution until I go check it out in the internet. There are many answers to my question, somehow some of it I found it really interesting ^^

Solution on how to dispose your lingerie:

NORMAL ANSWER
1. Do some good with your old lingeries by donating them to the charity to help those homeless women

2. Cut off the trim/ elastic to be reused or recycle the bra hooks in the back to make a bra extender

3. Recycle the underwear fabric, use them to make mini art, quilts, or used it as a stuffing for things that need stuffing

4. Send them to recycle to make new fabric for new lingerie

5. If it's still in good condition, make t as a top to wear by adding some material and do some design or embroidered


INTERESTING ANSWER
1. DON'T WEAR any lingerie so that you don't have to worry on how to dispose it!!

2. Give all the lingeries away at any gay bar (who knows people there will love to have them) ;-)

3. Wrap it up properly and give it to your boyfriend as a gift. They'll remind him of you O.o

4. Use it to make a purse?!

5. There are people looking for women to sell their lingerie!!


I guess you should have some idea now, don't you ^.~
There are more funky and un-predictable answer which you can look for in the internet. Have fun trying peeps :)

p.s: anyone dare to try on the suggested interesting answer?! I seriously don't...LOL

We finally call it a day, with a picture of both of us taken after sun set. Good evening :)

Hatyai road trip

Went on a road trip to Hatyai with Mr. T during mid of October. It was my dunno-how-many-times visit to this small little county that situated at the south of Thailand, but then it's our first time to visit together. We went for a 3D2N trip, short but enough for us to explore the whole town. We depart from house early in the morning and arrived at the border of Thailand, Sado around 4 noon. (Total journey approximately 6 hours from KL to Hatyai)

Day 1: SAWADIKAP! After checked in to the hotel, without any hesitate we off to hunt down the town!! (yes, I can't wait any seconds more cause it was long long time ago since my last visit to Hatyai, extremely excited to see if there is any changes or new stuff, plus there are lots of nice food and stuffs with pretty cheap price)

Finally I'm stepping in to the town again, well...nothing much have changed, same street, people, culture...but one thing I've discoverd was that they have a very good division of road, a sign board to guide you, which i think is a comfortable way of leading people the right way.

One thing that had surprised me was this "tuk tuk" car (common taxi in Hatyai) I couldn't recall how a tuk tuk exactly looks like back at the time but this was amazing!! They have LCD in it :)

Can anyone tell me where on earth you would find an LCD screen on a taxi?? You will NEVER!! And you will be happier when you take a ride with this and it only cost you 20baht (RM2)!!!

We continue to walk down the street, Mr.T was tired due to a long hour drive so we take a short break at Mc'D at Lee Garden Plaza. Not much different from Mc'D in KL, the only difference was they sell pork burger! (yes!! finally some thing new to eat...I'm sick of chicken burgers) It's just a light snack so we only ordered one set of prok burger meal, it taste good. Later on we went on to those shopping near the street, and end it with a must-do-activity, Traditional Thai massage!! PERFECT!! And I had Oil Body Massage *----*

After massage, and it's dinner time. This restaurant was operated by a lady from Alor Setar. (FYI, many Malaysian, those from Penang and Alor Setar doing business in Hatyai, especially in food sector) We happened to know this by asking the local for any recommendation for nice food. We did not know what to order and so we asked for their most popular dishes. After all, it was a wonderful meal, those dishes were fantastic especially tomyam soup!! It's hard to forget the taste... even Mr.T loves it! (bear in mind, he's not a spicy food lover)

The restaurant wasn't too far away from where we were so we took a walk there, and by the time we finished we walked back to the same street again, this time with more fun and excitement because all the road side shops, and stalls were opened, the whole street was now colourful and happening. I must say the crowd at the street is crazily HUGE! As we walked down the path we saw lots of people standing in front of the stall bargaining.

Day 2: I knew one reason why many people loves to travel to Hatyai. Went we stepped out of the hotel, there are numbers of tuk tuk, parking outside the lobby waiting for passengers. It's very convenient especially for older age travellers. I'm pretty much like a tourguide to Mr.T since it was his first visit and thanks for the memory I had on my previous travel, I managed to recall back what I've done and ate during my last visit. We grabbed a tuk tuk and off to the very famous local dim sum restaurant. Again, nice food and I'm surprised they sell bak kut teh too, very Malaysian style breakfast.

After savouring the breakfast, we took another ride to the local famous shopping market, which I known it as "Big Pasar". Here is where you can enjoy shopping and bargaining experience with the shop owners. You will find varieties of product like, apparels, bags, foods, thai famous duck instant noodle,( many people purchased in bulk) and many more. Without wasting any time, Mr.T and I begin our shopping spree, starting with the first shop near the market entrance. This market is build up in a huge white building located at the side of a big street, with carparks in it...it's a traditional indoor shopping.

After spending a few hours at Big Pasar, Mr.T couldn't take it anymore because we have been walking non stop from shop to shop, buying non stop from shop to shop too ;-)

We couldn't spent much time at a place, as according to our plan, it's a bit tight schedule for the day. Together with our shopping loots, we took tuk tuk back to the hotel for some refreshment. Spotted this cow-boy-dressed local man walking up and down the road, holding hand-made toys on both hands, promoting his product!! Apparently, it's a fake colourful running rats :)

After settled down our stuffs, this time we decided to go out of the town. Apart from shopping, there are things which you can do in Hatyai, visiting temple! There are many many big and small temples in Hatyai (most thai people are buddhist) We approached the hotel reception for a city map because Mr.T wanted to drive! Yes!! After few rides of tuk tuk he decided that is better to drive...and maybe because of the cost of tuk tuk fare they charged for the day tour which cost up to 600baht (RM60)..it's not worth for ride.

Here you are, the city map. With the help of GPS, we finally made our way to the Hatyai Municipal Park. It's around 15mins far from the hotel in town.

Little S leave a foot step at the municipal park. The weather was nice during our visit, a little bit of raining but still we manage to continue our journey. Next, we went little bit up to the park hill to our next destination- Bodhisattva Kuan Im. There is a winding road from the park that leads up to three separate shrines. Unfortunately, we only managed to visit two.

The huge golden statue of King Rama V, facing the great view of whole Hatyai city. The place was beautifully constructed. It's very windy up there and the area was surrounded with peace.

From there you will also see the back view of jade statue of Kuan Im. There's our next destination- Kuan Im chinese temple.

As we made our way to the car, there was this cute little thing lying on the floor, playing alone. Guess it's owner might be someone looking after the temple.

Leaving the municipal park in the evening, we were on time for the next destination- Klong Hae Floating market!! This is a BIG HIT in the city since year 2008, a must-go place for visitors! Little S is the only KL car among the row, woots :-)

All the locals are doing business in a small sampan, selling all sorts of thai local foods.

As I reached the place, spotted one local woman getting prepare, set up stall and ready to sail to the river shore to start on her business.

Those foods were amazing! Not to mention, it all only cost 20baht(RM2)!! TOTAL VALUE FOR MONEY!!!

Moving on, there was a land market just right beside the floating market. Again, varieties of product offering to the customers.

TADA!!! This totally freak me out!! I wonder why on earth they are selling this kind of weird thing or is this meant for eating?? They can move!!

Never see this in my entire life! Although this is nothing special and you may probably make this by yourself. It is very nicely crafted, they have all kinds of cartoon characters. Can't get my eyes off it and begging Mr.T to buy for me...love it so much :p

In the end, we bought 2; teddy bear for me, and Goku for himself, HAHA!!

find this unique in the market, thai-style sushi- as big as the size of one's mouth, topping with all different appetizers.

BANG!!! This is disgusting!!! This is completely insane!! Whoever dare to try on, let me know, I'll reward you with great surprise ^.~

Bamboo drink. This is mainly drinks, serve in a bamboo stick, you can take it back home if you want too.

Do you spot something flying on top of the drinks? YES!! BEES!! I wonder the amount of sugar they put in to the drink is VERY SPOONFUL!!

As I mentioned earlier, everything is selling at 20baht (RM2). This lady is selling dessert- thai-style jelly with green bean fillings.

Mr.T's favourite- Fried Squid. He even went back for second stick.

As we lingerring around the market, we heard a sweet voice keep coming out from this girl, promoting all the foods and activities to the visitors.

YUMMYYYY!!!

The night view of floating market taken from the bridge. The crowd hasn't been stopped coming since 3pm. (business hour: 3pm-9pm)

As we about to leave the market, we saw a group of youngster dress up in uniform carry with all sorts of music instrument. They were setting up and ready to perform. Apparently, they were a group of student performing to raise fund for their school.

Another group of young kids dancing on stage. As we reached the hotel, both of us were all tired and exhausted...thats not the end yet...we called for a thai massage and the hotel send 2 girls to our room...yea, room massage :)

Day 3: In conjunction with the long hour of driving, we had to leave early the next day. It's Sunday and they have rules for parking along the road side. Even days=Mon-Sun.

Odd days= Mon-Fri only.

On the way driving towards the Thai border, Sado. If you caught doing this in M'sia (as shown in the picture), you're guarantee with a summon from the police.

Queuing up to cross the border at Thai kastam. Gotto reach home before sun set cause have to attend to class on the next day!!

Bon Voyage!!
