Pre Convocation

For our graduation, my friends and I decided to have an outdoor photo shoot just for fun. I mean, you don't always have the chance to strike a pose or two in your graduation robe and hat, right? So when one have the chance, one should camwhore kao kao ;p I almost missed the photo shoot because I took my robe and hat on the day itself, luckily my timing was right.

First destination, Reservoir Park, Kuching

Next stop, McDonald for lunch

Second destination, DBKS/ Cat Museum, Kuching

I had so much fun fooling around with my girls, reminded me back when I was in field trips with them. Being the enthusiastic plant students, we even went to Orchid Garden. Our main purpose for the visit, for camwhore. That's what we girls are best at.

These are just my pre concovation pictures. I have tons of during and after convocation pictures have yet to be edited. Shall continue in the next post! Bye.

Instagram-ed

My favorite apps in Iphone no doubt will be Instagram. Every pictures that I took turned out to be amazing with Instagram and my favorite filter is definitely lomo-fi. Here's some random pictures taken from my Instagram profile.

Bummer.

Finally, after what seems like a long week, I have some times for myself. I put on my most comfortable old T-shirt and fugly pyjama pant, hair up in bun and face mask on, all ready to blog. I have all of my convocation pictures all nicely edited but guess what, I CAN'T UPLOAD THEM. 

The reason being is my internet connection sucks. It had been so slow for the whole week and it took me 3 freaking days to upload a picture and yet it failed in the end. Imagine my frustration. T_T  Even at work, I couldn't access my emails too until recently, making me almost miss my Takaful Exam. Oh technology, Y U  NO GOOD TO ME??

I believe that picture paints a thousand words. I was looking through some pictures taken from recent events and realized how happy was I in every pictures, grinning like there's nothing bugging me. I miss those moments. I miss being worry-free. Looking back at those pictures make me reliving the moments. If only I could share it with you guys. Until the internet connection fixes its speed, my post will remain picture-less.

Sometimes I wonder did I made the right decision in my life right now? I can't tell the answer myself. Maybe I should just try to adapt to whatever is going on now, just go with the flow. I had been very comfortable living in my own world, taking nobody into account. But everything is not the same anymore. I have to think about the other half in whatever I do and I don't really like it. I want my own space and freedom. Well, you can't get  everything that you wish for in life, ain't it? Well, that's a bummer.

Oh hello

I had been very busy with life recently. So busy that I often left my laptop untouched for few days and I rarely check my Facebook anymore. OMG, this sound like a growing-old syndrome T_T  Nooooo, I'm not turning into a old lady whom have no idea what's going on out there (hello schazazedane drama). *shake head* kids these day...

Anyway, I'm at Kuching right now, away for the weekend due to work and leisure. In just two weeks time since I last blogged, there's so much going on in my life that I myself can't barely keep up with. But more info on that later :) I have tons of pictures from my convocation last month to be edited and some new pictures from the recent events but laziness came in the way. I felt like I haven't had a proper rest for the past weeks. Back from my graduation trip, I went straight to work. With the new financial quarter campaign, the pressure is on. Seriously, work has taken over my life till I felt like an anti social. I resisted, thus had been trying to spend as much time as possible with the people around me no matter how bolted up I felt. And yes, I worked hard and played harder (thought you guys already knew my style :p)

Here's some pictures that I'd took recently:

**********************************************************************************

Fine, I'm giving up trying to uploading the rest of the pictures. Been trying for 3 days but it took more than it should and I couldn't wait 30 minutes for one picture, it really killed the mood. By the way, I'm addicted to Instagram lately. I love love love the filter, it make any pictures that I took looks amazing. Now I don't need any DSLR (actually I do) to be a great photographer, I just need Instagram :p feel free to follow me on Instagram if you want to (link available in my Twitter.) Will upload more pictures soon after I do all the editing (hopefully by this weekend). Bye!

Graduated!

1 year of Matriculation and 3 years of University, now I'm graduated with a degree. Couldn't be more happier, I almost shed a tear during the convocation ceremony. My parents are definitely the strength behind my success. Will upload more pictures soon because I took about 9847626284 pre and post convocation pictures. Works are pilling up and  taking over my life now T_T  Stay tuned peeps!

Room 18

Food post again ! Sorry peeps, all that I did for the past 3 weeks in KL besides shopping were stuffing myself with food, and training of course :p  I had almost 6 meals a day. Breakfast buffet at the hotel, tea break in the morning, lunch with colleagues, tea time again and dinner with friends and junk food before sleep. No wonder I kept panting and feeling bloated running after the LRT (long story really).

Last time I was there, Xiao S and I explored T-Bowl and Ben's. This time, we went to Room 18 at Berjaya Times Square. We both were really hungry and got lost a little bit in finding Room 18. We were spoiled for choice but in the end we settled down for a combo set for 2. 

Lemon tea and I-don't-remember-what tea

Our set consisted of 2 beverages, Udon with roasted chicken, chicken with prawn wanton, 2 bowls of rice, 2 buns and 2 tomato soups. Man, we're such a glutton.

Udon with roasted chicken

Ok, I'll be honest. Udon is never my favorite and this Udon was the worst that I ever had. It was too floury, if you got what I mean. It felt like I was chewing just the flour and it had a strong taste of flour. A little bit too much, I guess. It was sickening.

Chicken with prawn chicken

This dish looks like it was served for a sick person. And you're probably right because it was almost tasteless. I had to pour in soy sauce and dried chilies to make it edible. Maybe I was being skeptical, but I like my soup to be tasty, not tasteless.

天下第一bun 

These buns were the highlight of our dinner. The main dishes were so suck that we had to depend on two small buns to fill our tummies T_T  But really, these buns match its name. No.1 buns in the world (translated from Chinese), tho I doubt it is the No.1 buns in the world. We were probably too hungry to notice actually it was just taste alright. ='=

I haven't show you guys the worst part of our dinner yet. It was our tomatoes soups. It looked a bit too disgusting and oily. We only took two sips and completely ignored it. And yes, it tasted too plain as well.

Super oily tomato soup ='=

After dinner, we both went back to hotel because we're too tired to shop around anymore, (read: broke). Back at the hotel, I switched my role and turned into Sensei hehehe. Xiao S was having her Japanese test the next day and yet she came all the way from her Uni to accompany me. Of course, as a true friend soul mate, I drilled her to read her notes and tested her before the real test. :p And of course she passed the test the next day, I think. :D

Poor her hehehehe

Sakae Sushi, Sephora and me

During my second trip training at KL, my schedule was jam packed with training and assessments. Even on Saturday, I had to drag myself out of bed for a half day course. It was so hard for me to arrange a meet- up with friends, in the end I just decided to stroll alone. It was nice tho, to have some time for myself.

I was craving for some sushi fix and head over to Sakae Sushi at Fahranheit 88. I have to admit it was awkward to request a table for one but I'm so getting used to eat by myself alone now because I always travelling alone.

Surprisingly, I ordered their chicken teppanyaki (or something, I really suck at remembering food name) as my main dish. So much for craving for sushi ='= 

Chawanmushi, it's my must order dish in any sushi outlet

I love the Chawanmushi. I know it was just a simple dish but I tried make it once and failed miserably. It was nothing close to the soft steamed egg. Mine become more like a fried egg, probably because I put it in the microwave instead of slow-steaming it. Pardon my poor domestic skill, I was looking for a short cut to make chawanmushi but after the 3rd try and totally wasting 8 eggs later, I gave up.

I can't remember the name but the salmon was a bit too thin

I had been dying to go to Sephora to check some things out. During my last visit, I couldn't find some time to drop by. So, this time I was determined to check it out. I spent hours eyeing, touching and trying the makeup products and tools. I felt like a kid in a candy land. So much to look at, so much to buy but so little money left T_T

Of course I'm not gonna came out of Sephora empty hand :p

Bought some Soap & Glory stuffs.

I used the bath cube that very night too because soaking up in a hot bath was the best thing ever after all the long walk. The dark circle concealer is great too. It helps to cover up my helpless dark circle. My favorite would be the Scrub Your Nose In It. I have large and clogged pore, but I just find it tedious to always put on nose strips every other night, especially after long day at work, all that I wanna do is hit the shower and straight to bed. Tho the scrub does not completely pulled out my blackhead but it makes it less and refines  my pore as well. I also bought the body scrub and it was better than my last Watson (or is it Guardian?) scrub. Soap & Glory scrubs and cleans well but it left my body with some redness. Maybe because I scrubbed it too hard and the scrub grains were a bit harsh.

Love the top

I tried the top and the pant but I regretted not buying it. When I tried it on, the top was a bit too big for my shoulder and it kept falling off. But now when I looked back at the picture, it looks nice on me. Damn, I should get it on the spot. >"< 

Now I couldn't even bring myself to any boutiques and malls because of my shopping ban. Never mind, two more weeks to go and I should be okay. So far, I'm doing good with the shopping ban and stayed at home almost every night but that's mainly because I got off from work at night and feeling totally exhausted to think about anything else other than my bed. By the way, I got good news to share, I passed my Computerized Unit Trust Exam yesterday. Oh yeah, now I'm a licensed agent, come and invest your money with me :p
