Stress belajar? Stress bercinta? Stress berkawan?

Budak sekolah rendah pun reti stress bila cikgu bagi homework math tambah tolak berlambak2, ape lagi aku yang sedang belajar medic dekat negara tak senonoh ni. Tapi time kecik2 dulu aku tak stress sebab kalau ada homework aku buat2 tidur awal lepas tu pagi tu time nak pergi sekolah agama buat2 menggelupur ngadu kat mak aku kate aku tertidur awal homework tak siap lagi, so mak aku pun memberikan bantuan kemanusiaan berupa pertolongan menyiapkan homework math aku. Bangga mak aku ada anak camni -_-"

Lately ade je benda yang nak kasi aku stress. Stress aku merangkumi financial, relationship, friendship and deal ngan keling durjana errgghh tanak cakap pasal keling nanti aku rasa nak pulas puting sekor2 smpai tercabut. Kan dah ada unsur2 stress di situ. So anyway, here are some things that I usually do to kiss the stress away.

1. Nangis sampai mata lebam2 lepas tu tidur. This is the simplest thing I could do to let the burden out of myself. Bunyi macam budak gedik yang cengeng sikit2 nak nangis but cengeng tak cengeng, to me, crying is like a defense mechanism. Allah bagi nikmat nangis tu utk legakan hati yang sakit. Tapi in return, aku akan dapat kepala yang pening sebab nangis banyak sangat. Bile dah pening, ape lagi, tidur la. Haha but dun worry, I dun usually cry in front of others. Nangis senyap2 sorang2 sudeyh.
2. Shopping macam orang kaya. When you're able to grab anything and everything atau dalam erti kata lain, beli je semua benda macam kau bini Donald Trump, sumpah boleh buat kau lupa semua mat mat durjana yang sakitkan hati kau, atau kawan2 yang perangai macam cilakas. I can shop from sun to sun, balik rumah terus senyum lebar, tiada lagi air mata tiada lagi lagu2 sayu menemani hari-hariku. Tapi andaikata anda stress disebabkan masalah kewangan, maka this method is not a valid way to kiss away your stress. Tambah stress ade la kak.
3. Chocolates and all sorts of junkfood. I'm not really sure in what way does the chocolates help to alleviate my burden but I would really end up spending so much on chocs and other junkies when I'm down. Serious wei, time kat KMS dulu, kalau aku stress, habis chocolate kat ko-op tu aku rembat lepas tu kunyah choc sampai lebam. Kat sini, kalau nampak aku tetiba beli Ferrero Rocher yg besar tu, memang sah sah la aku tengah stress. Yang sakitnya, kadar kelenyapan choc adalah sepantas kilat. Ferrero Rocher mahal kottt, tapi tu je choc yang aku lalu nak telan kalau kat India ni. What to do? Crunchie mane ade jual kat sini. Ni crunchie yang little dinosour kasi sebulan yang lepas. Sekotak okay dia bagi. Ada la dalam 24 batang. 2 weeks dah habis. Tu pon paksa diri gak nak spacing rate of crunchie consumption. Kalau tak, mau habis dalam masa 5 hari.
4. Karaoke/clubbing/sewaktu dengannya. India mane ade karaoke huhu, tapi apa ada hal, kunci bilik, bukak lagu kuat2 and then get the party started. Sorang pun sorang lah. Consider that as my own private party haha. Hey, I can still have fun on my own okay.
   
5. Drive laju2. It's a bad habit. I think I got this from abah. I remember my dad pernah drive laju gila babi sebab time tu tengah mengamuk ngan anak kesayangan dia ni,aku la.Cuak siottt! But I end up with the same habit. Nanti kan time drive laju2 tu, I'd wish I meet with an accident, masuk hospital sampai semua orang yang buat aku stress tu menyesal gila terus taubat tanak kasi aku stress dah. Tapi so far, kalau agak2 aku dah nak tercium bontot kereta lain, aku brake gak utk selamatkan nyawa sendiri. Haha drama sket. Tapi kalau kat India, mimpi ar nak speeding, kau baru speeding tak sampai seminit dah ade auto bawak 10km/hour kat fast lane, buat tambah stress gua ade la kalo camni. Lagi2 ferrari aku lately agak sentimental sket, suke nak merajuk ngan aku. Haihhh, baru ku tahu erti kepayahan membela kereta. Boyfriend aku pun tak senti camni
6. Peaceful place. Secluded beach adalah the most effective place for me to forget all the stress in the world. My dad kalau bawak kitorang pegi laut, mesti dok risau aku hilang sebab aku suka nak hilang tiba2 dekat pantai. Saje je, sentimental sorang2 sket. Tapi nama pun duduk tengah bandar, banyak demand aku nak carik laut everytime aku stress. So contoh tempat yang lebih relevan dgn my situation is rooftop my apartment kalau dekat India. Kalau dekat Malaysia, I usually pergi lepak dekat this one bukit, not Bukit Beruk k (budak Shah Alam tau la kat mana) or kalau tkde kereta sangat, lepak celup kaki dalam kolam ikan kat rumah aku sambil cakap2 dengan ikan. The first pic ni is at my own little sweet escape, dekat rumah sendiri mengadap kolam ikan and cakap dengan ikan sorang2. The 2nd pic was taken when I was in Colombo. Cewah cam glamour je kan. Colombo tu Sri Lanka la kak.
7. Sharing is caring. Of course, aku bukan jenis yang simpan all my problem to myself. I usually cerita dekat my besties and boyfriend. Ala I know cam annoying je nak layan my sentimental tapiiiiiii, tak kira, korang layan gak. Haha. Paling rare occasion, and if I do it means aku memang stress yang amat sangat, is to share it with my mom. Tapi tengok season gak, kekadang mak aku ni leh je bagi her words of wisdom, memang aku leh lega la after that, tapi kalau kena words of wisdom tu nak nyalahkan aku je keje, bertambah2 la stress aku. Haha ni susah ade mak unpredictable ni. Dahla garang cam askar. Tapi memang takdenye aku nak cite problem kat my dad (except problem kete and duit ar) sebab my dad adalah orang yang paling tak reti menenteramkan orang lain. Dia dengar problem kau pun dah cukup bagus, selalunya dia tertidur atau buat2 bz ngan benda lain bila dengar aku mengadu domba -_-"

Tapi whatever it is, lepas dah puas release tension, lepas dah puas sumpah seranah, lepas dah puas bersentimental, always remember, stress is a tool that helps you be a better person. Stress prepares you for the worst. It's okay la nak menggelupur release tension la, nangis sampai lebam la, but in the end, move on la weiii.

Hehe pandainye aku cakap. Semoga stress management aku improve lepas ni. Amin ;p

How to attend an event/ceremony in Malaysia when you're abroad?

Well I just did! Apa rahsianya?

Skype sudeyh ;p

Truth is, kak long I baru je selesai nikah dengan lelaki pilihan hati dia ewahhh. So, sekarang saye sudah ber-abang ipar la kan. Congrats to my dearest kak long! Sooooo happy for herrrr tapi sooooo sedih I can't be there to join the nikah ceremony :(( *nangis lebat-lebat* but I virtually attended the nikah ceremony, through Skype. Hahahahaha.

I tak main-main okay. Memula on skype, I pakai t-shirt je. Pastu I nampak ramai gila tetamu at my house, my sis dah suruh tukar baju proper sket. The night before when I was on the phone with my dad pun memang dia kata "nanti aku on skype time kak long punya nikah tapi kau pakai cantik2 sket, pakai baju kurung ke." I thought la he was being funny ke apa but really, semua tetamu pun leh nampak I on webcam so untuk tidak appear selenger maka I telah pun tukar baju kurung ahaha, baju je tanpa kain, pakai shorts sudeyh, calit ar lipstick sket sebab dahla I demam ni ha so muka memang habis pale la kan. LOL.

So, I was virtually there la. Siap borak2 dengan Mak Teh, Ayah Cha, Mak Ngah ha sume lah, bukan korang kenal pun. Semua orang gelakkan I sebab I was not there :(( Suke hati je gelakkan orang, sedih tauuuuu! Abah pun same, he said nak buat nikah jeeeee, nak buat kecil-kecilan jeeeee! DUSTAAAAA!

There's no such thing as kecil-kecilan la when it comes to my family sebab my extended family adalah sangat ramai. My dad je dah ada 12 adik beradik (in fact, my first cousin tu sebaya dengan my mom okay, betapa ramainya ) My mom pulak 8 orang adik beradik. So memang takkan la nak berkecil-kecilan. Family friends lagi.Mimpi lah. Siap berkhemah bagai. Argghhh sebenarnya macam expected la, takdenye boleh buat kecil-kecilan, tapi cam, redha tak balik Malaysia, tapi tadi time skype, cam sedih :(

Oklah, memang nikah je pun. Reception kena delay lambat sikit sebab nak tunggu family belah lelaki attend the wedding. Ohhh, jom I kenalkan abang ipar I (teeheee it does feel weird) His name is John, he's from Cardiff UK, umur I tak sure, 30++ rasenye ahaha okay that's too much of details. Dia dah lama ulang alik ke Malaysia for business purpose, uh oh, he's a chef. So dia dah lama kenal my sister and they started as friends then baru bercinta.

Dia dah peluk Islam about 2 weeks ago kot. Ke last week. I pun tak berapa nak sure, my dad yang tolong settlekan semua. So let's welcome him teeheee :) Uh oh, nama Islam dia adalah Azlan Abdullah. He picked the name himself. My kak long suggested Faisal, but tah dia tak nak. But Azlan does suit him better kot :D and disebabkan the photo I snapped through Skype adalah tidak clear, maka I curi gmbar ni dari facebook kak long I ;



Met him once time dia datang my house hari tu. Teehee he's slowly learning the Malay culture lah, he even makan pakai tangan masa dekat my house tu. See I was always a bit sceptical about dating someone who's not of the same race and religion tapi macam, love just happen kan, you can't decide you won't fall in love with orang jenis macam ni la macam tu lah coz love knows no boundaries. Cewah. So tak nak lah sceptical lagi pasal benda ni hehe.

About the reception, insyaAllah next year when families from both sides are free. Family Azlan aka John pun memang nak sangat attend the wedding. Hehe sporting kan mereka? :D Kali ni they will have to consider me when deciding the date for the reception. Kalau tak I merajuk 10 tahun. Seriousssssssss!

So sape2 yang adik beradik dia ke kawin when u're abroad, you can attend the wedding through Skype. Memang la tak sama macam attend the wedding for real tapi cam okay la gak, I memang siap dengar akad nikah, makcik2 kecoh, anak2 sedara sepupu menangis la apa la semua ahahaha. Teeheee.

Conclusion is, saya sangat happy for my sister. Tak lama lagi bole la I jadi aunty yeay! ;p It feels just like yesterday when we were kids, main lompat2 dari katil double decker, main monopoly lepas tu I merajuk sebab I asik kalah, main batu seremban la, I used to listen to her high school stories and time tu I budak hingusan sekolah rendah lagi so I can't wait to grow up sebab cerita2 dia dekat sekolah menengah adalah sangat best.

I used to be jealous of her sebab dia pakai barang branded tapi I selaku budak hingusan pakai barang Kiki Lala atau KIKO sahaja. I used to curik her branded jeans and tops and buat harta sendiri ahahaha. Used to try on her lipstick and all senyap2 when she's not around lol. Zaman I pakai seluar baggy2 and baju besar2 I used to criticized her why lah dia suka sangat nak pakai baju ketat2 jeans ketat2 semua. LOL. It's amazing eh how time passes by.

We had our bitter times together. We fought, we cried, we didn't talk to each other for some silly reasons. She cursed me, I cursed her too, a lot in fact hahaha but at the end of the day, we do turn to each other because she's my big sister and I'm her little sister and nothing can change that. Ouh I miss you and I love youuuu, Congrats kak long, I'm so so so happy for youuuu and I hope you'll have happy gooooood days ahead :) :) :)



Later I will post up her nikah pictures.

How To Walk In High Heels?

Personally, I think high heels are the most beautiful invention for women lah. Okay, if you know me closely, then you know that I have this unexplained craze towards shoes particularly high heels. Well, different women different obsession kot. It could be handbags, jewelry, lipstick! (teeeheeee!), earrings (used to be a big fan back in high school) so on and so forth.
So, why high heels you might wanna ask. I started wearing high heels when I was as young as 13, matched with my baggy pants and loose shirt. HAHA. FASHION DISASTER weh, uh oh, juga with my round spectacles! LOL. So, it's obvious that I didn't slip on my high heels for cosmetic purpose back then.

But true enough, wearing high heels help to boost up your confidence level. Okay, this may not be true for everyone, but it does hold true for me. Kenapa eh? Maybe because I boleh jalan sama tinggi with my friends who have model height kot. Being the shortest (no, I'm not talking about me haha) among your friends can be pretty depressing. In this case, height does matter.

Okaylah, I'm not gonna give you tips on how to walk in high heels because you already know. Common sense la kan. If you're not used to walk in high heels, you can start off slowly with a steady chunkier heels rather than the thin pointed stiletto kind of high heels. You need to first learn how to balance yourself when walking in high heels and for that, you need to get the right posture when walking in high heels. More and more practise will do, you don't need a class or anything on this.

Since I've been wearing high heels regularly for quite some time (quite a few years indeed), recently, I experienced pain in lower half of my lower limb including both knees and also back pain. The knees felt like they can no longer bear the pressure and hurt a lot especially when ascending or descending the stairs. And the back pain was mainly on the lumbar region (go google where lumbar is) and I had a hard time dealing with it. And guess what, it started during my Euro trip! Potong kan, tapi I kentalkan je.

It's not that I'm not aware of the side effects of wearing high heels but I neglected the whole fact about how harmful high heels are to our body because I've become too attached with high heels. Ceh ayat tak boleh poyo lagi kan. Yeah, truth is, I even went shopping with my high heels. And my shopping isn't just 1 or 2 hours. My kind of shopping-day-out can be from sun to sun, really, and I'll still stand tough in my high heels. That bad!

There were time when I felt so much comfortable in my high heels rather than taking them off my feet. Yes, apparently, walking barefoot on a flat ground used to hurt my feet. And just because I've been a regular user of high heels, I came to think that I look hideous when wearing flats or sneakers. No, I didn't just think, coz when I looked into the mirror, I really do look weird with flats or sneakers. Now, you can see how this love-for-high-heels-thingy affects me psychologically.

tapi high heels ni buruk

True that most women won't mind standing in the most uncomfortable high heels for cosmetic sake. I do too. Not to say that you can't wear your high heels at all, but take me as an example of a high heels victim. You don't wanna hurt your knees and your back like I did kan? I'm lucky that the pain gets relieved after a few weeks of 'no high heels' geez, to be honest, I kinda freaked out at first. Takut lah kan. Right after I get the pain, terus google about side effects of wearing high heels and there were lotsssss of them!! You can even end up having surgery for your knee pain and back pain!

So now, I gotta start wearing flats more often though honestly, I don't like flats at all hmm but I've to cuz I dun wanna injure my feet some more. And the thing with my feet is, I've a wide feet and "wide feet + flats" makes a hideous combination cuz tiba2 nanti nampak kaki terlebih lebar and hodoh lah camane nak explain eh? Kalau rajin nanti boleh suruh I demonstrate wahahah but anyway, hodoh tak hodoh, sekarang I learnt it the hard way so conclusion is, pakai high heels sila berpada-pada okay sebab side effects of wearing high heels yang korang baca dekat internet adalah bukan cerita dongeng.

So baiklah, I will limit myself from wearing high heels too much after this. But after a few weeks of feet resting, I think I am now ready to rock with my high heels wahahaha. Eh eh tak sedar diri, okay sila berpijak di bumi yang nyata. LESS HIGH HEELS, MORE FLATS iskk -_-" But I would be really grateful if anyone of you wants to treat me this heartthrob ;


Time dekat London hari tu, meleleh je tengok kasut macam ni haisshh! Time tu duit nyawa-nyawa ikan. Ketaq tangan tengok harga grrr.

How To Take Care of Your Car (a quick tutorial for dumbos and bimbos)

Driving a car is easy but taking care of the car is definitely not easy! And since I am now an owner of a car, I really need to know a lil bit bout car maintenance. I wish I could skip this part but really, I can't, unless I have Abah or my lil dinosour here to take care of the car ;p

Soooo, the only thing I knew about car was driving the car and isi minyak, that's it. I never give a damn about panaskan engine ke, isi air ke, check minyak hitam ke, temperature naik ke, tayar pancit nak buat camane ke, alignment lah, whatever lah! Pening tau tak, I'm not a technical person so hearing lecture about engine and things like that really makes me go BLAHHHH!

But I can't escape this time. Abah has been lecturing me much about car maintenance. Lil dinosour pon. Izzarief pun. Semalam hantar kereta service, terpaksa mintak tlg a guy friend teman us so that when the mechanic tells us this and that I tkde la ternganga je tak paham pape. Haha. So btw, I'm gonna list some basic things that I need to know bout the car (which I never ever knew before haha, super noob me) ;

1. Always check for the temperature meter. Normally, it should be at the center some time after driving, meaning ur engine is not too hot lah, but if it goes beyond the center, reaching H(hot), then you might wanna check ur air(coolant).

2. Kalau jalan2 with lil dinosour in Malaysia, dia always always always check air kereta tu. I told myself, this guy has some Obsessive Compulsive Disorder lahhh, do u really have to check for air everytime nak jalannnn? Okay, now that I know the function, I think it makes sense. Haha, kena selalu check air so that engine tak panas kot ;p Kesian ada orang tu kena tuduh ada OCD ;P

3. Next, always be alert if ada bunyi aneh2 coming out from ur car. Bunyi time brake ke apa ke. Kalau ada je bunyi aneh, most likely there's some problem with the car. Kena pegi check right away.

4. Alignment tayar tu. Kalau agak2 time you speeding, kereta tu macam terhoyong hayang, then maybe lah there's some problem with the alignment of your tire. Go check.

5. Minyak hitam aka engine oil, bukan black oil eh. Not of that much importance since I drive short distance je dekat sini, but still, kena check whether or not the minyak hitam is at its optimum level.

6. Kalau agak2 air cond tu rasa angin je tapi tak sejuk2, ada problem with the a/c gas. Pegi check.

7. Kalau agak2 kereta tu rasa berat je nak jalan, nampak macam kempis je, then kena isi angin dekat tayar. Kalau kat Malaysia selalu kita buat sendiri tu kan? Ni tak reti lah. Lil dinosour asik ingatkan je yang ni, tapi lupe plak nk tanye camane nk buat.

8. Kalau tengah drive tetibe nampak berasap2 je kereta tu, stop RIGHT AWAY. It means ur engine is overheated. Boleh terbakar. Wuuuu...takut! Thats why it's important to have a glance at ur temperature meter every now and then.

I think that much is enough kot utk basic. Especially for dumbos and bimbos. Ada hati nak pakai kereta sendiri, tapi nak jaga pasal kereta hape pon tatau. LOL. I asked my dad, can I not know all these? Hantar service je boleh tak biar orang tu je check semua. He said, "ha buat lah perangai camtu, nanti dia ketuk kau sampai pokai padan muka" So, for that I'm taking initiative utk belajar a lil bit bout car maintenance.

This so called quick tutorial la konon (ceh poyo gila kot bunyi quick tutorial) hanya applicable utk orang2 yg memang noob habis tahap dewa pasal kereta. Kalau yang dah pandai pasal kereta tu, tak payah nk memperkotak-katikkan I. Sat lagi aku pandai tukar tayar sendiri kang, terkejut kau nanti! ;p

Btw tau tak, kereta tu tak sampai seminggu lagi with us, there's already a bump at the back. Damn betul! The first day amek memang takde pun bump tu, tetiba je this one day kitorang perasan ada kemek dekat belakang. Confirm ada keling langgar time kereta tu parking lepas tu blah mcm tu je. Siot kau keling! Dasar keling! Semalam I tanye nak ketuk berapa, mahal la plak. So layan je lah. Kang dah ketuk, tetibe keling langgar lagi, tak pepasal je.

Oh and I would like to share a lil information regarding the car, told by my friend Izzarief who is majoring in automobile. I asked him, betulke if off air cond we can actually save minyak. He said, it is only true if you drive 50km/hour. If not, kalau you tutup air cond, bukak tingkap and drive more than 50km/hour, you're actually using more and more power to overcome the air friction. That's what he told me lah. Dun let me go into detail about the physic part of it hahah I hate physics remember? But hey, it's an interesting information kan. Kite ye ye je off air cond sebab nak save minyak, padahal we're using more and more minyak kalau buat macam tu. Heee.

So that's all lah. Tutorial for myself. Haha.

What makes a good listener?

Listening to someone can be tricky. Everybody can listen to you, but not everyone is a good listener. Don't you know there's a list of rules for everything? A good listener is someone who follows the rules. Simple.

1. Respect her opinion and feelings. No matter how wrong she is to you, she has the right to think she's right. So, give her time to let it all out before saying anything that can stop her from doing so. (Hint : Not a good time to say she's totally wrong just yet)
2. Now that she's done letting everything out, you can say what you feel. Whether what she did was wrong or that she needs to open up a little more. But be careful with your words, or she'll regret saying anything to you forever.
3. When she says she's mad or disappointed or whatever with her loved ones, it strictly means 'just mad' or 'just disappointed'. Hate is not the question here. So why bother saying bad things about those people she loves?
   Example ; Diya says "I geram gile dekat my dad sebab die tak sporting langsung I nak pegi dating pon tak boleh." And the friend says "Yea lah, ur dad is so annoying okay I'm glad he's not my dad if not I tak boleh nak dating with my bf hari2" Like WTF? And it applies to all the people she loves, no matter what sort of relationship they have.
   
4. Not everyone is lucky to have a solution to the problem she's facing. So don't waste your time cracking your brain for a perfect solution because having you to listen to her already makes her a lucky girl. But anyway, it's good if you can provide her with good advice.
5. Show your interest and concern. She'll feel loved.
   
6. If she complaints about the same thing you're facing, wait till she finishes before complaining back to her.
   Example : Gf says "I'm so fed-up my classes are packed, lecturer I assigned kitorang buat thesis due esok pagi atas meja dia before 6am, I blk rumah kucing I berak merata kat bilik I, and now I'm broke nak beli air sirap setengah gelas pun I tak mampu, aaaa stresss!!Lepas tu..." and the bf cut in the conversation, "U tatau I lagi teruk, tiap pagi kne bangun kol 5 drive to work kalau lmbt jammed nnti I smpai lmbt boss I mengamuk blablabla" OMG pls? At least comfort your girlfriend first kot??
7. The most important thing, even if you disagree with her, be gentle with your words.
   

Make someone's day by listening to her. It's not that hard anyway kan? In case I left out anything, do add some more.

girlish talk : MAKE-UP MISTAKES

I've been meaning to write about this long time ago but blame the er, lack of time. I was just too busy doing other things and this blog has become the last thing on my mind for the past few weeks.

You know, there are certain things that I observe every now and then. One of the things that I've been observing, and I'll be writing about, is the obvious MAKE-UP MISTAKES.

I'm nowhere close to a professional make-up artist and I must admit that on my first few attempts of applying make-up, I committed the same mistakes too. It's part of me experimenting the painting on my face. LOL. Btw, let's not look like a clown anymore. Here are some gross mistakes you should avoid when applying make-up.

1. Choose one between your eyes and your lips! Sometimes, you think putting glittery eyeshadow on your eyes and again glittery lip gloss on your lips gives you double charm. No, totally wrong. If you've decided to have a dramatic eyes, keep your lip colour simple/natural and vice versa.
   
2. Applying red lipstick without a lip liner is a sin! Red lipstick tends to bleed so you'll need a lip liner for a well-defined lip.
   
3. And of course, red lipstick is already sexy! Keep your eyes simple and don't try to match your red lipstick with a red dress. It'll definitely look err, trashy? (believe me, I've seen one)
   
4. Blusher is meant for the apple of your cheek. But, don't go concentrating that area with too much blusher cuz it'll make everything looks unnatural. Here's a simple tips ; apply a little bit of blusher to your forehead, chin and nose for a fresher and natural looking face. (Sikit je tau! Tak suruh concentrate the blusher to the whole of your face!)
5. When applying eyeliner, be sure that the line doesn't look as if it's hanging! It is supposed to make the root of your eyelash appears thicker, not an entirely separate line to spoil your pretty eyes. Don't do that gross mistake pls!
   
6. Applying liquid eyeliner can be a real hassle. But liquid eyeliner is always preferable as it gives better result and less chances for you to have panda eyes at the end of the day! Yes, pencil eyeliner may be the culprit for that!
   
7. Lastly, foundation isn't necessary for everyone. If you have a skin that's flawless, you have no reason to hide it with a foundation. But anyway, if u still need to apply a foundation, these are the things to be remembered ; i) the shade of the foundation has to be one shade lighter than your skin tone. ii) remember your neck, it needs coverage too! (or ur neck will appear as if it belongs to a different person)

The look that you wear is supposed to be flattering but any of these mistakes will make you appear otherwise. Before stepping out of your house, check again if you've done something wrong on your face.

And when your make-up is perfect, wear it with confidence :)

the tips and tricks for a macho-er you :)

who doesn't want to appear macho, especially in front of the girls? i do! (eh tak, i have to appear ayu) so peeps, thanks to me coz in this entry, i will reveal the real definition of macho-ness from the girls point of view (or it'll be more precise if i say from MY point of view ;p )

1. we want leaders. yes. it's nice that u consider what we have in mind by asking "where should we go?", "what do we do next?", "what should we eat for dinner?". but those questions can be pretty annoying at times. of course, u do need our opinion but sometimes, we need u to lead us. and show us that u can!
2. sense of humour is a must. but we're not impressed if u crack some silly + lame jokes. but hey, thanks for trying.
   
3. in a crowded place, don't let ur girl walk alone. grab her hand or simply put ur hand on her shoulder to guide her through. we love protective guys. LOL ;p
   
4. athletes are hot. show us what the muscles are worth. sweaty looking guys particularly in basketball jersey really get me to my melting point.
   
5. if u come from a very rich family, and are spoilt very much by ur luxurious life, u're definitely not someone i would like to live with. but it's okay, u can be my short-term boyfriend and i can share ur luxurious life too LOL.
   
6. i don't like smokers. but somehow, i personally think that the thin scent of ur cigar plus ur perfume can be really, er, interesting. hahahah.
7. appearance is important, so does ur smell. say no to bad breath and say no to shabby appearance. a combination of simple shirt and shorts is the best for my viewing pleasure. wahahah. but, metrosexual is not my type.
   
8. macho guys don't swear constantly. u can swear as much as u want when u're hanging out with ur guy friends, but avoid doing it so much when u're with ur girl.
   
9. confidence really make u glow so walk and talk confidently.
   
10. guys with intelligence and wide knowledge are the most wanted. but beware not to boast about ur intelligence with us. we need a wonderful brain to talk with over a cup of coffee (note that so much of unintellectual craps can be harmful hahah)
    
11. guys who respect the elders will definitely get my respect.
    
12. macho guys are not afraid to take ur relationship to the next level. there's no such thing as 'mereka kawin sebab gersang' when u're doing it much more with ur so-called girlfriend. yes, that makes u SO UNMACHO.
13. i really have the hots of doctors, particularly surgeons. i think surgeons are hotstuff. hahahah.
14. lastly, being the real u is the most important thing. be comfortable with urself and have fun hanging out with ur girl, listen to what she has to say and respond to her appropriately. that's already macho to me :)
    

okay that's about it. those are the things that i can think of for now. feel free to add more, there's really no harm in helping the guys to become macho wahahaha now i feel like writing an article for CLEO or maybe for some male magazines.

nah, this is some random thoughts of mine for today. wrote this for fun ;p not really a guide u can rely on hahahah. till then, daaa.

how to save ur money?

ok ini ajaib! it's 2.40 am and i'm still up! dah bergolek2 atas katil for hours but i couldn't sleep. maybe insomnia datang kembali. or maybe i miss him a little too much. ergh, malaysia and india sgt jauh okay berjuta2 batu please la pulang sini cepat i can't help missing u tapi sgt malas nk top up sebab 1 hari boleh habis erm agak tak mampu i mintak ampun byk2. okay cukup luahan perasaan kali ini.

seriously, i couldn't think of any better things to do other than blogging, err yes, blogging in the middle of the night. maybe the outcome akan merapu merepek bila bace balik esok pagi. maybe la. so what should i write eh?

oh! referring to the previous entry, i wrote about myself working my ass out to save up some money to buy something i wanted so badly kan? i dunno, i just feel like sharing things i did zaman dulu2 untuk save duit and earn money.

1. as mentioned, i sangat sanggup berpuasa berlapar walaupun hanya dapat save seringgit sehari i still sanggup okay. budak skolah kot? seringgit amat bermakna!
   
2. selongkar wardrobe, kumpul baju2 lame, handbag2 lame, belts and ape2 yg rasenye bervalue, and suruh adik2 jualkan dkt kawan2 diorang. wah, it works tau!
   
3. after SPM, i worked in KUMON shah alam mall. i earned roughly around rm600-800 monthly depends on kerajinan mempunch cardkan diri. hari dapat gaji adalah hari bahagia sedunia.
   
4. ini desperado gile. pinjam duit maid hahahhahahahahahahha my maid rocks okay! tapi serious bayar balik. kalau mintak duit kat parents nnti diorang tanye nk buat ape and kalau ckp nk shopping nnt kene ceramah 2-3 hari so malas. pinjam duit maid adalah shortcut yg paling digemari zaman form 2, 3, 4, 5. ini maid paling berjasa. mekaseh kak ain.
   
5. kumpul surat khabar dlm rumah and jual kat pakcik naik lori tu.
   
6. ini tactic keji zaman dulu. bgtau abah skolah mintak bayar ni ni ni. tapi slalu tk banyak dlm rm5-10 camtu je. nak buat camane otak geliga sgt smpai terpk idea ni. abah jasamu dikenang janji orang ganti balik bende yg lagi best2! janji!

8. ni zaman darjah 3 jugak. amek bekas pringles tu, buat lubang nk masuk duit kat atas, balut bekas tu ngan wrapper cantik2 pastu pass around the class kate ni tabung derma. ok ini hasil kerjasama beberapa orang rakan. kutipan bole tahan. lagi satu tactic keji budak skola rendah. tlg jgn ajar adik korang buat camni ok. as i said, nak buat camane otak geliga lagi skali smpai terpk nk buat camtu hahahahahahahaha mekaseh byk2 kepada yg menderma may god bless u!

haaa. so that's how i save money, aahhahahaa and that's how i earn extra money. betul betul ade tactic yg sgt keji untuk dapatkan duit tapi itu zaman kanak2 yg tak dapat membezakan benda baik dan buruk jadi sila maafkan hehehe ;p skarang janji tak buat mcm tu dah. janji. takde mase aku nk jual stickers, atau pegi kutip derma atau ckp kat abah kena bayar tu ini because he'll definitely say "pakai la duit sendiri, duit MARA bagi kan banyak" hahahahah so no chance la.

and why am i still up? and still tak ngantuk? please, i want to sleep now. please.

the rules of life!

1. honest

painful truth is always better than white lie. it's best to tell the truth, rather than living in a lie. telling lies may give temporary pleasure, happiness, pride or whatever, but don't forget to have a thought on how it may affect the future? you may get caught one day, and things won't get any better if the truth is found in inappropriate way. i hate crooked people, they're of no use to me.

2. never trust a person 100%

in some cases, not even family members. yeah i don't trust people easily, and i don't trust some people throughout my life. gaining a trust is never an easy thing. even the closest person can betray you, and then you are left forsaken.

3. independent

i personally hate people who rely totally on others. i mean, get a life! being too dependent is just soooo irritating. helping one another is a good thing, but some people just can't differentiate between 'mintak tlg' and 'menyusahkan orang'. yeah, please check on that.

4. courage

hidup mesti berani. this is very crucial. risk taker is always a better person. it is undeniable that the road to success is indeed a rocky one, but we'll definitely reach there if we're brave enough to take up the challenge. hati kering, that's very much needed sometimes. especially when you need to move forward and stop dwelling about the past.

5. faith

this is the final and the most important rule of life. belief. have faith in yourself and God. most of us lack of the latter, i'm not excluded to be frank but i'm working on it *heeeeeeeeee*
