dimsum breakfast~

i have seen some spell "dimsum" as "timsum" but as long as we get the point across, let's not argue on that, alright? early today it was already raining, but since my family were all awake, we decided to go out for some breakfast at our usual dimsum place.


since the little plates the restaurant provided were cleanly white the sauces were in squeeze bottles, i had an itch to draw a cute face! i need more practice though. haha~

Nail Art - Her Dark Hearts ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

earlier this week, i had painted my nails black for a video shoot (for an assignment). but i felt sayang to remove it so soon. so i decided to add a little design to it and wear the black for a little longer! i used five different shades from white to pink on each heart, but i only painted hearts on my left hand nails (the right hand nails are just plain black now but i plan to add a music note design).

triangle sandwich maker!

i could not remember when or where had i seen this triangle sandwich maker before, but i remember the price stopped me from buying it, but i really wanted to try it - and now i own one! i bought it from the 'plastic-all-RM5-each' pile at Ace Hardware in Sunway Pyramid.

Daiso in Sunway Pyramid~

since i have visited Daiso at various locations, i could not help but to check out the newest branch in Sunway Pyramid which opened on 2 October. although i did not buy anything from my recent trip there, but i did see a lot of things that made me go rambang mata. there were little at the snacks section, but there was a  pretty well-stocked section for arts and crafts (with some Japanese fabric quarters!) as well as a good selection of cute bento accessories. here are the photos from the bento and craft supplies sections~

all that is well, ends well

this week had been unpredictable, i think. there weren't many events that happened, but those little moments were the ones that matters and left a big impression on me. perhaps it was because of the absence of english language classes this week? ^__^;;;

let's talk a little about food today! i am starving for supper~ plus, it has been half a years since i last wrote  my monthly food theme.

yet another bad day..

when is it ever gonna get better? *cries*

this morning i was all dressed and ready to go for that singular class of the day (which was due to follow with an afternoon session in Times Square with friends) BUT the car had to break down before i could drive it past the first traffic light from home. just like that. it screeched loudly. it stopped. and it smells like burnt rubber (i swear i can still smell some of it now). i managed to drive the car back home slowly and that was the end of the day. (dude, i am NOT going to drive a screeching car 30km into the city!) so i skipped two classes this week already (yesterday and today). *cries more*

sucky days are just gonna get suckier. but they say third time is the charm, so perhaps a brighter day lay ahead? well, it better be! i have an all important interview coming up (way to go, i just jinxed it). such a horrible, terrible, incorrigible start to the week. at least i got to browse more Bodyline stuff.

sad day...

there are days when you have ups, and there are days that get you down. what a fluctuation compared to my recent post here. perhaps you might just leave this page and return another day when you don't think yours truly is in PMS mode.


even though there are such unforgiving days, you must make some use of it. after all, don't they say, if you get lemons, make lemonade! lemons are sour citrus fruits, but you can still sprinkle some sugar and ice in the lemon juice and make delicious lemonade.

happy day!

you would think with a title like the above, i had had a happy day today? your guess is right - yes, i was a very happy girl today!

let's highlight what were the little things that made my day:
  • the arrival of a long-(nearly-)lost parcel to complete my Sawako costume
  • the compliments about my new clothes which i received a day ago
  • the fun lunch with my coursemates
  • and an unexpected email!

Malaysia maid-themed cafes

have you heard of the popular maid cafes in Akihabara, Tokyo, Japan; such as cure, @home, and maidreamin? don't you just wish to visit one of those maid cafes? because i myself dream of visiting a maid cafe in japan! perhaps, butler cafes too.

however, the closest i ever got to a cafe maid was: Ryomou Shimei (one of my previous cosplay character who works part-time in a maid cafe). why? you have to understand it is not that cheap to travel in japan, at least for me. so, let's get started on a list of maid-themed cafes, here in Malaysia!

new semester fatigue

this has been a rather strange week, but i think i can explain why.. of late, i have been feeling sleepy easily and hungry soon after each meal too!

usually i can stay up really late into the night, way past 12midnight, but last night i could only stay until ten past midnight and i really could not keep my eyes open any longer. most likely because i sleep all the way into the afternoon during semester break last month, and now i have to re-adjust to the morning timetable. also, i get sleepy after lunch break hour, but that was probably because food+heat=sleep.

oh, the hunger issue is more serious. you could say i am eating half times more than my usual portion for each meal, so far this week. not only that, i also snack in between meals and get hungry not long after the previous meal. =__=;;; AND i don't feel full no matter how much i eat (i know there is a real disorder for this but i am sure i am not affected) until i burp (which then i can feel some food going half way up my throat) which tells me STOP, YOU ARE BLOATED. i think it's the hormones due to 'time of the month', but one fellow Gemini did experience similar hunger level (but not as serious i think) so i was thinking maybe some stars and planets position is causing Geminis to overeat this week. well, i hope it is only for this week.

or else i might grow into a large mushroom - but people will tell me, "hey, you're not that much now, won't hurt to eat a little more to lose that stick figure." well, excuse me but i do not want to lose or gain any weight! i am happy with what i already have for years.
