LOVE LOST

Got back from Krabi, Thailand a couple of weeks ago. It was gorgeous, i particularly loved the location of our hotel because we can literally just walk to the restaurants and shops, plus an awesome view of the sea. We could also jump straight into the pool from our room. k, not that amazing but it was for me teheee

Anyways, just received my two lovely online purchases. I bought a leopard print wide legged jumpsuit, and studded chunky wedges. In total: 80 bucks

I baked my almost famous apple pie. Dad bought a new barbeque set instead of getting a new phone, which was the actual reason we went to the mall in the first place. So we decided to have a little bbq party just my family and my aunt's. Turns out they loved my apple pie! Thank God, because it did not look as beautiful as i imagined it would turn out when i put it in the oven.

Anyways, i found these old pictures of me back when i still have those snake printed bodycons *sob sob I went for my cousin's first birthday by the way. B)



Have you seen the new Love Lost music video by Temper Trap? If not, its a must listen ;) If you have, listen again lol
Will post a new year's inspired post very soon. Adios amigos! xo

BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY

Hey guys, i found something very very interesting indeed. Just so you know, I get pretty insane when it comes to DIY things. Sadly, im not exactly the best person in the world for it. However, I found a video that is guaranteed to rock your socks off. Okay that sounds cheesy. But anyways, hope you enjoy the video as much as i did and maybe try it out for yourselves ;)



My dearest sweetykins, Amal Azman drew a picture of me :) Thanks love!

Also featured on Tongue in Chic for the Chic Pop Street Market style shot! Thank you so so much.

BREAD TO MY BUTTER

So semester holidays are finally starting, what better way of celebrating it than a wonderland themed End of Semester dinner, and a Diwali Night. I had to miss the Christmas Party due to exhaustion after all the hustle and bustle of Diwali preps. Trust me, shuffling dance practices, fashion show rehearsals, chemistry tests and mathematics homework, within a week is no stroll in the park.

Sorry for posting too many pictures, we all know how hard it is to pick the best out of hundreds of them :D









With amazing performances by the students of KY





And last but not least, Diwali Night!



Quite a long post, but ive got a special one coming tonight. Well, not really but at least i think it is, for me. x)
Goodbye everybody!

Haven't been around in a while, i know. Things have happened and some, well let's just say did not go as i hoped. Things i knew so badly would work out but in the end, turns into a big fat awkward bubble in my head. Nothing more.

College is speeding up. And yes, im officially eighteen. Did not really celebrate it with a bang but me and my girls just drove around KL till sunrise. Well, not exactly but it was 2 hours to sunrise. The day before, i went to KL Vintage Festival. Bumped into an old flame, shopped averagely (found my galaxy top!) heard good music, had good food.


Vintage accessories





Some of the cool stuff I found there. And these are perfume bottles!

Anyways, my brother prepared a little something for me in the morning. Since writing birthday cards is the sort-of-tradition in the family, and my parents were in Thailand, he arranged all the cards and gifts on the breakfast table. He bought me a leopard printed briefcase bag by Guess. With his school pocket money. Brother, although it isn't the most obvious thing in the world but God knows how much i love you. Later that night, I went to dinner with some friends at the Curve and Shawn drove me back to college.It was the perfect ending to the start of a beautiful age.

Chic Pop 10 Bazaar was awesome. Saw my aunt and her friend, Stella of Stellar Studios who opened a stall during the event.



I promised myself i wouldn't shop. But i couldn't help myself. I bought an acid washed maxi skirt from Thr5t and a vintage geometrical patterned collar top. That was it.

Danny's in Eqypt now, pursuing dentistry. Sending him off was not easy. I also promised myself I wouldn't act like a mother chimpanzee who just lost her baby but yeah, i did. May God be with you always, we miss you very dearly brother.





That's all for this time, there isn't anymore.

FEELING BLUE

Have you ever felt like you're in the middle of the ocean, torn between fighting for your life and just giving up? to let everything be and just float on the surface of the water? Away from paranoia, high expectations and judgmental imbeciles.
I wish life had a pause button so we could just stop time. To think. Or maybe to take a break.
Its been only two weeks since ive been home, and things couldn't have been more different. Mom and dad decided to make tiny improvements to the house and now everything from the walls to the floors have been removed to make way for the renovation. Its amazing how much things could change in such a short period of time. Danny's going to Egypt this tomorrow. Felt like it was just yesterday, we were playing football in my garden which felt like a field before and yet so tiny now. I still can't believe how much time has passed. How those friends you used to talk to every night, are now strangers and those you despise turn out to be one of your closest friends.
College is treating me fairly, A Levels is not at easy as it sounds. To be completely honest with myself, im struggling. Keeping up is never easy.
Semester exam's next week, i just hope i can prove to my parents and myself that im actually worth something. Oh well, i have to start looking at books now. Maybe a quick shop at rasta bazaar? Dear God, please show me the light.

PROCRASTINATION

So, i have an assignment due this week. Not proud of the fact that everyone's either done with it or has already submitted it and im still in the midst of deciding the topic id like to write about. Oh well, i guess i should start anytime soon :/

And thanks a lot lot lot, StyleSophomore for featuring me on your blog! :)

THEY SEE ME ROLLIN

Hey guys,

Its been a while. College life is definitely different. But the dramas, the lover gossip, the green eyed pessimists, the social cliques, and all that we fear to be the repetition of high school is unfortunately surfacing. I mean, there is no place on earth that does not have drama in it. Whether it influences you or not, well its for you to decide.

Im studying A Levels in KYUEM and with God's will, ill be pursuing medicine. insyaallah. Awesome roommates, amazing teachers (so far), and my own room. I am more than grateful.

Went to Chic Pop and KL Bazaar Trilogy yesterday. Saw some familiar faces, let me tell you, it was bittersweet. Bought quite a lot, using my college money. Felt quite bad for spending it on clothes instead of books and lab coats, but i guess its for a good cause. At least for a legit cause.

Oh well. Tomorrow everything goes back to square one, me being in college and crying over my malaysian studies assignment. Its due coming thursday, and all ive got are two lines of the definition of education.Despite my sudden outburst of emotions, im happy of how these past few weeks have turned out for me and thank God im still standing. Happy fasting!

*And lastly, what i bought :)

SWEET DISPOSITION

Safely reached Malaysia yesterday midnight. I was so drained out that I spent the whole of today resting and watching tv. Since we followed a tour group, we didnt really have enough time to explore the real Jakarta and Bandung. Shopping was also restricted to only an hour in an outlet or a specific street. Bought lots of Batik textiles at the Pasar Baru in Bandung where personally, i would recommend if you would like to get materials to be sent for tailoring. Tanah Abang in Jakarta was also good but i won't buy blouses, skirts, or ready made pieces there.On the other hand, Jalan Riau is awesome for getting branded items at unbelievable prices ;) i bought a navy blue long cardigan, cobalt blue denims, brown high waisted slacks specially for college and a batwing chiffon batik top. Thrifting on the other hand,sadly was not on our itinerary. For the first time, i didnt shop much on a shopping holiday trip. All in all, loved every bit of it, can't wait to go back to indonesia for a real shopping trip x)

So I won the Chic Pop Market 8 Style Shot Contest! Won myself a 50ml Flower by Kenzo eau de parfum and a pair of Urbanscapes tickets. yeeaay thank you Tongue in Chic!
