rain check

I swear I blog at the oddest times... I kind of have a crappy amount of workload & I'm also sorta covered in coffee ( more on this later hahahah ) anyway hello to all my non-existent readers after approximately 4 months of no posts! :D ( I apologize for my laziness for the 700th time ) Anyway, I actually have A LOT to blog on but idk I just don't seem to have the mood for it so I shall just insert mini snippets of events that happened so far in 2015. Therefore I am making a blogger rain check post to make up for them. Also, did I mention that it's currently 1.43 am & I haven't so much as touched my homework or packed my bag and I've got to be awake in 5 hours. Welcome to my life of splendid decisions!

January

i.  started school as a 16 year old student

I know, I know. Are specifics that significant? Well, to me it's a yes because where I live ( Malaysia ), when you reach the age of 16 ( aka form 4 ) you have to choose a stream to enter - namely science stream vs arts stream. I was in the longest dilemma of my life... I was so confused as to which stream to take but eventually after a TREMENDOUS amount of deliberation with my parents, friends & some research on my own, I made the decision to enter the arts stream, specifically ( here I go again with the specifics ) - the Commerce classes. Commerce equates to perdagangan btw. Form 4 has been ONE HELL OF A RIDE. Juggling 10 subjects is something that really caught me off guard! It's a real challenge and to this, I'm still terrified as to how I'm going to manage to get myself readied for spm which is basically 17 months away. ( shit ) 

ii. here's a random mini food journal of food I ate in January

a) Secret Recipe

One of the main reasons I go to secret recipe is for this prawn mac & cheese

^ THIS IS AMAZING OMG. It's a new cake that was introduced by Secret Recipe only in January 2015 and it's the chocolate brulee ( ya I know I'm lazy to add the proper spelling enunciations ) cake. 

B) Kenny Rogers

tried the barbecue dressing since I always go for black pepper, it was not bad but I still enjoy black pepper more hehe

C) Morganfields

I remember my dad purchased a groupon promotion thing and we really feasted like kings that day!!

E) random stuff at home

By random stuff at home, I literally mean only french fries. Of all finger foods, I enjoy french fries the most and this is one picture out of the 600 times I've eaten french fries in that month. #frenchfryobsessions

F) Mcdonald's

couldn't find the solo pics!! >:( but I tried the new french cheese sauce thing ( it was new then ) and I guess it was OK, I think I prefer sweet & sour!

That's all for January's food journal hahaha ( damn this post is gonna be hella long! )

iii. Also in January I ordered a tote bag from Faizah ( my friend who sells homemade totebags ) 

and I'm super super satisfied with the outcome!!! honestly, so pretty! You can order a bag if you want from her instagram - givememynamepleasexx, her prices range from rm20> depending on your desired design. For mine, she charged rm 25. Albeit a little costly, she literally does it all on her own and I've even seen her at work so ya, just supporting a friend! ;)

February

Moving on, february. Ahhhh february. 

i. reminisced over old journal entries and old journals

ii. mini food journal of February

 A) homemade mini doughnuts & pizzas

yup, again with the fries!

B) Mcdonald's bfast 

 

I genuinely prefer mcd's breakfast servings as compared to lunch/dinner, the sausage egg mcmuffin is bomb!!!!

C) tons & tons & tons of ikea chocolate

deceiving pic of less than 1% of what I actually devoured. 

iii. went for thaipusam! 

iv. went jogging w/ bff zone!

v. finally took the time to watch whiplash & gone girl ( I LOVE AMY DUNNE SO MUCH I WANT HER MINDSET SHE'S MY SPIRIT ANIMAL !!!! )

vi. attended kursus kepimpinan

 vii. spent valentine's day alone ( not a problem to me honestly I like it that way lmao )

viii. finally got a new queen sized bed!!!! 

The delivery was delayed to about 3 weeks though omg -.- I had no bed for 3 whole weeks. Howeverrrr ( and I'm not just saying this because it's a new bed ), the bed frame + mattress is hella comfy!

ix. started all tuitions ( including literature )

in case you're wondering what relevance does my face & tuition have - just saying that this was taken on the day of my first lit tuition/ sejarah tuition of 2015 if I'm not mistaken HAHAHA

That's it for February.

I originally wanted to continue this post all the way to April but I guess I'll just split them up seeing as 1) It's 2.43pm and I haven't bathed, packed my bag or done any of my homework and I have school in roughly 3 hours 15 mins. Yay! and 2) the post will be too damn long + quite a lot happened in march!

Till my next update, chou!

Love,

     

happy twenty-fifteen

hi & ohmygod happy new year!!

I'm kind of in a state of shock where I am unable to comprehend the fact that I will be form 4 this year and turning 16 in a few months. It is also unbelievable that I have been ( kind of ) successfully blogging for almost 3 years!!!  I guess it's safe to say, it took me about 4 days to kind of cope with reality which gushed in all of a sudden, hence the overdue new year's post. ( the fact that my family and I decided to have a very unplanned trip down to kl for some retail therapy may have also been a contributor to my delayed post heh ) Anyway, we have an extra week of school holidays!! This is due to the floods and I hope everything will be ok soon.

Spent new year's eve and had a countdown at dhanya's house along with ng and looi and on new year's day we had a road trip to kl. So far, 2015 hasn't been that much different minus the stress of the extra subjects I will be taking in form 4. I have opted for the art stream, in the commerce class. Originally, my school placed me in the science stream of class 4sc1 but after much thought and discussion with my parents, I made a switch and now I am separated from all my smart ass friends. :((((((((  It definitely is going to sting when they talk about how hard their stream is and how tough the additional subjects that they are taking are and I will inevitably feel out of place during school talk but I made up my mind that I know what's best for my own future. Already there are uncles that are trying to talk me into changing my mind, telling me that if I do not go for the science stream a huge window of opportunity will close on me bla bla bla and so on. Some of my friends, I can tell, are already looking down on me but I am trying my best not to let them bring me down. I will work hard and attain success, till whenever that may be I HAVE to keep a strong upfront. No, I am not switching because my pt3 results suck balls. I switched according to my personal interest. I managed to get 8A's & 1B for pt3 which clearly isn't a good result but it isn't a bad one either. I was one of the three students who got straight As and one B in my school haha. I am also currently torn between taking eil or est as my tenth subj and I hope to figure it out soon.

Anyway, last year, I allowed people to get to me. There were some of my high points but I did reach rockbottom in 2013-2014. This year, I feel much more confident and much much happier. Despite my fear of entering form 4, I feel so light and free that I'm actually going to enjoy life. I've realised after much harsh confrontation that I am quite negative. Perhaps I am, or perhaps it is who I have become. Nevertheless, no one will understand if I say it is the latter due to certain events that have kind of knock me overboard.  I have had quite a lot of thought about it and I am going to be A LOTTTT more positive this year. I used to be an extrovert as well all throughout my life but that kind of changed in 2013-2014 and well I am going to go back to my old ways. I am not going to be that shy little lame friend that sticks to the back anymore, I'm gonna be bold and I'm gonna be confident.

I have quite a number of events that happened in 2014 which I am yet to blog about and I'm stuck between the decision of blogging on 'em or just focusing on new events and I believe I will be focusing on new events. However, I did go to Bali and there def needs to be a post on that!! Haha

anywho,


Here is my list of 2015 resolutions :

i. wake up early on weekends

ii. study consistently ( this is going to be the hardest shit ever )

iii. only watch one show a day and don't waste my time on useless dramas and youtube videos after          school

iv. do not let people intimidate you and do not be shy or an introvert

v. be more outspoken in class

vi. prepare and stick to a study timetable ( you're gonna need it or you'll regret this later )

vii. take part in as many competitions as possible

viii. homework must be done on the day given

ix. smile more

x. be more sociable

xi. finish tuition hwk on the day pre planned

xii. blog more often

also : ( they're cheesy but I gotta learn how to do 'em )

I genuinely hope 2015 will be a much better year for everyone!
It's so cool, isn't it? how each year 365 days can just pass by and teach you lessons that will lead you to a better year every time.  Happy new year everyone and may God bless us all :)
