Simple Pleasures

I should really thank god for yesterday. It was such a wonderful day from the beginning till the end which dragged even more happiness after midnight. Some things I did: Cleaned my room and decorated it a little Got my usual weekend chocolate treat Spoke to my dad about my trip back ( Glad that I can go home soon, yet still delaying the ticket purchase! *sighs*) A friend did something sweet despite his hectic schedule and the time difference Revised!!...

Fab Mini M.A.C

Chanel, Gucci and Hermes are a few fashion houses that have earned their arm candies the It-bag status.  Now though, they seem to be taking a break while other American designers reign the runway with their eye-popping borsettas. As much as I want to compliment Marc Jacobs, I have to ignore for I wish not to steal the limelight from Rebecca Minkoff whose dazzling bag I’m going to torch on for this post.  You might have stolen hearts...

Empire of the sun- We are the people

I spent nearly 2 hours analyzing this one song just for the reason I loved it! At first I believed the song to be a simple summer love story yet later i discovered it to have a deeper meaning  when I watched the video and also a read a few reviews.  This is my interpretation, two people avoiding death reminiscing the life they had, wishing to be like the rest who have more time than them in this world. They can't accept their life would end soon but tried assuming that would convince death , but they fail and eventually die (hook)....

Tick tock

A few days ago when my dad reminded me of my birthday, I was the least excited about it for some stupid reasons. The main one being, I can't go back! Imagine how frustrated I'm. This situation had been recurring for 2 consequent years. And guess what? I hate it! When my dad attempted to convince me and of course excite me with the 'what you want, I will get it for you' statement, again I had no feelings, like at all. In fact I turned the 'huge'...

More to life

I have heard from the broken-hearteds, they speak too much pain. I have been told about victims seeking a little shade, they are exhausted within. I have read something on the truth-seekers, they are eagerly searching still. I have seen people, real people behind each story and each of them are survivors to be awed indeed. Who can't be beaten down by circumstances, who can pursue life even with much burden to bear, who can inspire despite the hurdles...

Quality trips

My 3 days BIG ( Bina Insan Guru) camp is over and it was indeed an opportunity dressed in overalls, and looked exactly like work as Edison puts, which I took and did not miss, ignoring the fact, the program is actually mandatory. Adversity introduces man to himself. Therefore, the long walks (10km in 3 days), creepy encounters, cooking for a huge crowd and setting up the camp, certainly made a good experience and taught lessons apart from showing...

Bold-Bright-Burberry

I'm not sure how many would risk a hole in their pocket, but for drooling and swooning purposes, Burberry Prorsum Spring 2013 is definitely a collection to be taken seriously. The fashion house seems to have achieved 'roaring success' during the London Fashion Week, therefore, missing the runway show is such a loss. Yet with Youtube, fashion eyes are all pleased and soothed. Glitzy, metallic , Jewel-tone, that's how Glamour puts it in short. And...

Geisha???

Hello readers! This post is going to be about cosmetics! Ever taken a picture with the flash ON and mirrored Geisha and totally regretted the moment? You might have accused the photographer of felony, you might have blamed it on the wrong lighting, you might have gone cuckoo figuring out the reason, so here you go the exact cause! It's your foundation. Na-ah not a shade-gone-wrong case we are dealing here but a protection-turned-disaster issue....

She turns 23

Happy 23rd birthday to my one and only sister, Uma! It wouldn’t be complete if I were to not say a word or two about her, so here you go, 2 complete paragraphs ! ( my love for her can’t be described in just few words ok ?=D) very old pic I suppose =p She’s twice as stubborn as me. She’s someone who can be brutally honest with her opinions, which allows me to count on her to critique my make up, hair style, what I wear and also my actions....

Changes are learnt

Life is full of surprises, who dares to deny that? There will be a lot along the way but the best ones are the ones we reward our own-selves. They are only a few yet so priceless and memorable. Lately though, I'm experiencing a little too much of them that I got myself overwhelmed. Maybe I should thank the slaps on the wrist which I volunteered to bow to sometime ago. How can I forget those moments? I even had someone calling me 'good-for-nothing'...

Rewarded!

Just when I’m biting nails trying to figure a way to get done the teaching aids and tasks that are to be submitted and presented next week besides having qualms about the trip back home for a short break, I was greeted with the best-news which highballed me the green flag! Rewards come unexpected indeed!  From the 5 taxing submissions, only 2 ( 1 considered done) is in the list for the coming week! And you know what that means? I can...

Time held captivate

The way things are going, I just wish the world would cease for an hour or two so I could a take a break from the irksome load of courseworks, lesson plans and tasks. I even think about them as I eat, jog and even before I fall asleep. Well, that might have sounded like I have found my new beau in orthography etched papers, trust me, even I was, for a second convinced of the slapdash information. And ‘No!’, we are not declaring it on facebook...

Better kept less

A disastrous storm could end up a slave to the wind, a major triumph might get stepped by ill wills, nobody knows. Certainly agree, hopes at times do keep us going. Meanwhile expectations, mirrors a foolhardy trick we play upon ourselves, of what it should and should not be. You could even be armed by the best forecast, who knows maybe the lady luck herself , but believe me friends, it's worth so less, for reality, it strikes so...

“Your regrets aren't what you did, but what you didn't do. So I take every opportunity.”  ― Cameron Diaz- Cameron Diaz for sure had the 'yes' or 'no' option laid in front of her to answer to the opportunity waiting at her door but not everyone can be in her shoes (no pun intended). The truth is folks, there are some opportunities that are mandatory. Some people have it tailored by circumstances, mine though came in a package in the name...

The fabler, a poem

You might have whispered the lies right, You might have written it to last, You might have spread it little fast, But we’ll see. You must have loved that feeling hard, You must have shouted it loud, You must have felt superior at last, But you shall see. For I'm so much better to walk pass I can be happy and not fuss I even dealt the trouble you tossed For you ’sick-rumour’, shall always remain nothing  but a foxy fabler...

Trend to reign?

I sure did miss a post about the fall-trend which got all suited up in velvets and sequin-rich dresses, further oozing sophistication under the luminance of punchy colours and also the synonym of opulence, Gold. In contrast, A/W 2012 is fancying up style from sophistication to chic thus, giving me all the right reasons to write about this one. And street fashion for sure has its status elevated by the breath-taking evolution by the mavens of the...

The girl with an agenda

September is going to be such an onerous month. My plate is all full, only waiting to crack anytime, and I’m certainly hustling with time to save it by any course. For the first time in my life, after so long whining about people subjecting themselves to being ‘busy’, I’m officially busy! Can I be any happier? I’m serious folks, I’m busy! And I’m totally absorbed by the whole idea.  You might think it’s like playing the hard ball in...

Teacher-Dilemma

Of all the professions in the world, after politicians, it is the teacher-bunch who are scorned the most. Whether it's jealousy, disappointment or something else, I don't know. Recently, a girl from our own nation took it to a different level by typing down her thoughts in her blog under a post entitled ' Untungnya Jadi Cikgu' (the blog has been removed, this is a google snapshot) naively, neglecting the fact that there is at least 400k teachers...

Wonky Facade

We are not born with masks in grip, we indeed make them along the way, don’t we? Some we put on for it’s what we truly want to be. Some we don because we can’t bear to face what’s underneath . And even unfortunate, there are a few we wear because that’s what someone else wants us to be.  Which is worse?  Well, that’s not the question.  We might wear a mask for various reasons nobody could ever pen down, but the explicit...
