Resolution for 2017

Referring to my post in 2016. 

I only managed to accomplished 1 out of the 4 points i promised. Only thing i managed to do is pick up Yoga, which i am still doing atm!

Promised to spend more time with my parents failed cause i moved even further since April, i still do go home whenever i feel like it cause working in Nom2 gave me the leniency, but i officially shifted out in Oct when i started my new job. New job is only 30 mins away from Eric's home and it takes 1 and half hour from Klang everyday. Toll prices for both ways is RM9.20! I can;t afford to spend those money. Staying at Eric's house does not require any rental. heheh

I did not managed to cook also! LOL Bad excuse = No proper kitchen! Fine, i;m just lazy kay!

I did not managed to pick up Korean language as well, i was facing a very very very bad financial year last year, had to loan money from mum and Eric some months! That was how bad it was... Mostly caused by bad financial planning and also bad work decision! I should have moved on long ago but because i enjoyed my work company, so i stayed on to see what the company could offer. =(

I believe 2017 would be a better year, things has been improving for the past 2 months! Really glad i made the decision to finally leave even though i miss everything about the previous work space!

Well, past is the past... It's time to make new resolution.

1. Still pick up Korean

Been looking around for suitable slot to start my class officially, Eric said he would want to join me eh... not sure how true is that.

Discovered that there is a class at Kota Damansara every Tuesday from 8 - 10PM! Time to get down to it soon!

2. Save enough money to buy my parents airplane ticket for our 2018 family trip.

Self explanatory!

3. Spend more time with my family

Make it a point to have meals with my mum and dad on weekends even though i really just want to sleep in or hide at home sometimes.

Have notice that, for the past few months, my weekends are always packs! Always seems like i have something to do on weekends and it's unavoidable! HAHAHAH..

4. Be more of a responsible GF

Do the cleaning and make lesser excuses! Allows him to play his stupid games. LOL =.=

5. To hike Mount KK 

I have starting picking up trekking/hiking as a hobby since May! I really enjoy the exercise, it gives me a good exercise and sweat. Have to prep myself for Mount KK this year! Hopefully I would be a able to accomplish this by June!

For Ranting Only

I used to be really patience with horrible attitudes, thinking that alright, that person is just having a really bad day. It's not a permanent behaviour so I spoke for you and I gave you chance after chance but I can no longer tolerate such immature behaviour of yours la. The world do not owe you anything even if you are a beggar living off the street. It is your mentality that forms you! 

Constantly tormenting us with your bad tempers and behaviours, it is no wonder that people speak about you all the time! Have you ever stop and ponder on the person you have become; the bitter person, the inconsiderate person, the one that affects someone else's mood. Oh god!

When you think that you are filtering out the negativity in your life, have you thought that maybe your friends are also doing the same, filtering you out of their lives? 

Well, if you are reading this and personally think that you might be the character to this blogpost, it's time for you to change! 

-End-

Oh god, after writing this, i feel like the negative one here. I should have just not give a fuck right but I can't, i need to at least pin this down for future reference. To tell myself that, I have once wanted to filter this person out of my life.

3 Things this CNY

Oh god, haven blogged since i posted up my GuangZhou trip. The irony of my job is, I force my bloggers to blog constantly and make sure that their stats are high but I never bother taking care of my personal page.

Have always thought of monetizing my blog but I don't think I can commit la, so fuck that! Just gonna update as and when I can and want!

Anyway, Chinese New Year is in A DAY TIME. Today would be the reunion day, while i sit at my dining table to churn out what I have wanted to pin down a few weeks ago. LOL never had the time you see~

Every Chinese New Year, it's the same old thing la! I be anticipating this this year:

1. Getting Married Soon

This one, no need CNY also I'v been getting questions like this. I might be ready to get married but my pocket/bank is not ready! You think money drop from sky ar? lolol

Can't be inviting my family and friends to a cheapskate wedding right? =.="

No need to ask aunty uncles, if i'm getting wedded, you be the first to find out cause it would be written all over Facebook! Unfortunately, that's how the world works now, no more call or texts! It's Facebook.

So, if you never receive a wedding invitation but you see wedding pics of mine, that means YOU AIN'T INVITED! kthxbye! *omg i so bitchy*


2. Bought house already

So, the other day I was seated down in McDonald and we were talking about house hunting etc to only realize that great houses now cost 800 thousand and above. So if you max out your loan, you still needa pay 2,000 a month. If i'm not earning 5,000 a month how to afford a house ar?

Graduate who has only worked for 2 years how to be getting paid 5,000? =.="

Even if you earn 5,000 a month, you are just living off your pay cheque, imagine if something happens to you for that month, how will you be paying off your loan?


3. Getting comments on how I look

The reason why i started getting 3 years back was because of the remark i received on my weight! fml...

I never stop exercising since then, but after i started exercising, I been getting bigger! So instead of fat now, I'm rather lean now. But, i still be getting the same old comment.

Nehmind! Can't be bother edy!


Anyway, this are the general one that I expected would take place. Don;t have must time to write more cause mum is asking us to wash the porch already.

K bye guys. Till then Happy Chinese New Year! :)

Debts pilling up

It's been a concern of mine all this while to be piled up with debts after debts and it's finally really taking place in life now.

I earn a small amount of salary at the moment but I have debts of a 40 years old. =.=

I'm not sure if my demands and wants rocket high last year or that it's more like a necessity now.

I need to manage my fund better tbh. =(

Car loans 700+
Macbook loan 300+
Phone loan 200
Insurance Premium 200

Total: 1,500

and I need a new phone cause the Xiao Mi's phone that was loaned to me by the company isn't functioning very well and it's actually causing delay in my work. So, I borrowed 2,000 from mum to purchase a new phone and will pay her back monthly.

I'm in serious need of a pay raise!

It's a very private matter to be sharing this on a public space but I feel a need to remind myself that my financial management is really really bad. I fucking need to stop spending on unnecessary things like a Hello Kitty Tumbler I just bought this month!

2016 Resolution

It's the middle of December 2015 already. Another half more month to 2016! Time has no means of stopping or slowing down as we age.

I remember time used to passed so slowly when I was in primary school but i think the speed of time escalated. wtf *imagination*

Anyway, talking about New Year's Resolution. I never tend to have one, even if I do set a new resolution every year, I never seem to keep to them. Well, maybe it was the time and money issue. I can no longer say money is an issue cause I have started working. NO I AM NOT EARNING RM10,000 A MONTH! lol and time, will forever be an issue. I should not be making any excuse. We make time for ourselves!

There is 2 things that I really want to pick up in life and this two things I have been saying for ages.

1. Picking up Korean language

I used to be a hardcore K-pop fan girl, so obsess till the point whereby i get defensive when people speak ill-y of my favourite star. i know wtf! The obsession and catching stopped when i met Eric la. lol 

I don't need no handsome star when i got my own right? HAHAHAHA *eww max*

Anyway, I still vigorously catch K-drama and i would love to be able to speak fluent Korean one day, after all it plays a big role in my high school life. The countless meeting I had with my friends swooning over handsome boys! ahhh, missed those moments. lol

2. Picking up Yoga

It's very unlike me I know, it's a super calm exercise, lotsa patience is required blah blah~

Well, that's what i need now, learning to overcome anger and of course it's for personal wellness too.

I always find girls who can bend their body in all sorts of way rather sexy. wtf lololol

and also, i personally need to stretch more. I work out quite often but stretching is never a part of my routine, which is extremely strenuous for my body.

3. Spend more time with my parents!

Ahmaigawd, I'm so freaking guilty of this, even though i stay at home but i spend the least hours with my parents. I'm such a horrible daughter!

My parents aint getting younger, i spend so much time in my room watching dramas and doing work, i tend to neglect them who are downstairs watching TV. 

I think we should make it a habit to make Saturday night an outing night. Go have some great food or sort.

4. Start cooking!

Self explanatory! I hate the preparation and washing, so i just never bother. I know as long as I stay under my mother's roof, I have everything under covered. LOL 

wtf, in 2 years time, i would be staying out and probably raising a family of my own, if i cook then we eat sand meh? lol

The first thing I would love to learn how to make to perfection is, my fav food in the whole wide world wtf.. STEAK!

Anyway, here are 4 to begin with. Really hoping I would put my heart into accomplishing all these.

5 Important Characteristic In A Man

This topic suddenly came into my mind, i ain't no love or man expert but I feel it's pretty much logical when it comes to finding the right man!

Handsome, Rich - #Dreams ; can eat meh? Handsome for what, people age eventually, are you relying on him to sleep with ladies to earn ar? No ma.. Rich, family rich doesn't make him successful hor, if he earned his richness then it's a different story altogether.

I'm not gonna jump into a conclusion but chances is if your guy has the characteristic above, your relationship would probably only last 3 days. wtf jokes. < 3 years, it doesn't apply to all situation but I have seem many cases to have this pin down.

Here are a few that I have always look at when finding Mr Right! Hope it helps for you as well.


1. Hardworking

Working two jobs, full time on weekdays and part time on weekends. Waking up at 6AM to go to work! This is a keeper, how often will you come across such a guy?

Young adults my age lives a great life. We expect a lot out of the little things that we do! #HowCan?

This characteristic will put food on your table! Not Handsome or Tall or Dark hor.

This was probably what attracted me to Eric back when I was 19. He works early in the morning at about 6AM he is awake going to work till about 11AM, he comes back takes a nap and then at about 3PM he goes to work again till 9 - 10PM at night. At 23, he works for himself and it's probably a job that many many guys will not pick up. It requires him to work under the sun, getting his hands dirty getting steels weld and stone crushed. On most weekends, he work as well! I don't see him often but who am I to complain when he is working to build a career. Back when he didn't had a job, i complained, takkan now got work also I complain right? HAHAHAH


2. Has A Goal/Plan

I'm not talking about being recorded in a Guinness World Record kinda goal hor.

It's the one where he tells you, by 25 i want to be able to own a house, my first house will not be an investment one etc.. To achieve such goal, my plan is dot dot dot...

Sometimes Eric amaze me with the things that he says! This fella does not even have his SPM results with him, during SPM, he walked out on papers, he said teacher wanted to cut my hair so i patah balik never take the paper. =.=" I on the other hand scored 9 freaking A's but i feel like i'm the stupid one in the relationship.

I personally do not have a goal in life. All I want to do is to earn as much money as possible but how? I never thought of that. LOL


3. A Patient Man

If a guy walks out on your during an argument, just let him go! lol

A man who doesn't shout at you for whatever reasons it may be!

A man that doesn't raise his hand on you!

A man who apologies when he is wrong! wah, this one is a keeper, men has big ego, it's hard for them to step back and bow.

Why am i using Eric in all my examples? wtf Eric did once or twice walked away after we argued but he came back and apologize. The thing with me is, i'm pretty hard headed myself, most of the time, I feel I'm the right one LOL. So, thank you bi for being so patient in this 4 and half year!
He asked me that day, when was the last time we fought ar? I can't remember! HAHAH We joke around too much till the point where even if we are angry at certain things, it seems like a joke. We never stay angry at each other for more than half a day. I guess, being with him made me learnt patience as well.

4. Has Respect & Manners

This one very very important la especially to the elderly. I believe this should be the ultimate character every men should have, doesn't matter if you are from a rich or a bad background!

If your other half respects you and your family! Less one problem to worry! :)

If your other half speaks as if the world owes him a living, then please kick his ass out. He deserve to die! lol jokes



Well, end the end of the day you don't need compliments, flowers or fine dining. Have that when you are in your 50s', your son should be complimenting you, giving you flowers and buying you expensive dinners. lolol

And, I wouldn't say it's not about the looks completely cause that would be a lie. The look is probably the first thing people consider, but what may be beautiful to you might not be to me!!

Well, that's all I have to share!

Disclaimer: Eric is not a perfect men hor! Still lacking in many aspect but sometimes keeping flaws aside and focusing on the beautiful things is the way to row.

Benefits of Fish Oil

I couldn't make it to work the other day due to menstrual cramps so I made a visit to a nearby doctor. As usual, she told me the basic thing that I have already know but i then proceed to ask her if she has any oral medication for me to get rid of my acne/pimples whenever my period is nearer. She told me there isn't much that could be done but she would prescribe a supplement for me la.

The supplement that she prescribed looks like this.

She didn't had to tell me what it was for me to guess that it was Fish Oil. My mum has constantly emphasize that fish oil is good but at such young age, i always think why would I want to waste money on supplement now. I will start consuming when i get older la.

Well, since doctor prescribed, I did my research on why human body need fish oil even if you are consuming fish on a weekly basis. 

What is Fish Oil?

Fish oil is a form of fatty acid that is derived from the tissues of oily fish. It contains the omega-3 fatty acids, including eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). It has been scientifically proven that those two elements are very important.

Many people are also not aware that cooked fishes contain mercury these days due to water pollutant, consuming too much fish directly allows your body to accumulate mercury which would cause certain vital health issue in the later stage. So another alternative to getting the sufficient amount of fish oil is through the capsules. 

Why is Fish Oil Important?

1. Help with Heart Problems
- Some people use fish oil to lower blood pressure or triglyceride levels (fats related to cholesterol). Fish oil has also been tried for preventing heart disease or stroke. 

2. Good for the bones
- Women has higher chances of osteoporosis as we age because our body no longer produces certain hormones. The best way to support your overall bone health is to make sure you're getting enough calcium in your diet regularly. After that's been looked after, it would be a very smart move to start paying attention to your fish-oil consumption.

3. Women's care- Women sometimes take fish oil to prevent painful periods; breast pain; and complications associated with pregnancy such as miscarriage, high blood pressure late in pregnancy, and early delivery.

I have started consuming fish oil recently, i believe that people are never too young to start on supplements because of the food we consume these days.

5 Bad Habits That I 'Refuse' To Break

Was inspired to jot this down after I had a conversation with Eric on out way home on one of my bad habit!

I am quite sure 70% of people reading this would be able to relate to what I have to share. lol

After pinning this down, I will seriously try my best to change for the better. *lies* lolol

1. Not Making The Bed

My mum have personally tried all kinds of method, even with threatening us on allowance cutting during my high school days. It worked for a while but I just started getting lazy again. To be honest, out of the 365 days that I sleep on my bed, it's probably less than 10 days that I take the effort to make my bed after waking up.

I personally find it more comfortable coming home and sleeping on a cosy bed than a tidy bed. LOL #LazinessLevel100


2. Not soaking my sweaty gym clothing

Okay, people going to judge me so bad for this but it's the #truth. I workout quite a lot as many of you would have known. I do mostly HIIT exercises these days, at the end of every workout, it is as if it's just went under the rain la. My sweat is no ordinary sweat yo! LOL I consume lotsa protein on a daily basis thus smelly sweats. FML!

Well, once again my mum constantly "reminds" us to soak our gym outfit in a pail after working out but I just never bother. All dump it into the laundry basket. FHL!

Why? Too much work, soak already have to squeeze it dry then have to take it upstairs to the balcony (where our washing machine is placed). These 3 steps is enough to not make me want to do it. LOL
#LazinessLevel100

3. Having to wake up early the next day but sleeping late

Well, this is pretty common for everybody. I used to not procrastinate on sleeping time, i kept that up for about a year. Sleeping at 10.30AM every single day on weekdays but then workload started increasing. I had to even open up work laptop at home and it takes up sometimes 1 hour plus to clear off pending work. Thoughts of wasting the entire day working makes me wants to do things that a what a work, life, balance person should do. Catching up on movies etc.

So i wake up every single morning as if like I have been ran over by a train.

Oh man, i wish this could be me:

4. Swearing

Oh gosh, my level of swearing have reached GODLIKE level! I wasn't like that until I started working. The amount of *fu*k* that I use every single day can't be counted!

wtf, f u, fck off, wah fck le, fck liao lo, fcker, fck it, fck la, fml and the list continue!

I don't know when or how I started swearing so much in life. Sometimes I swear unconsciously, sometimes i swear cause i needa make an impact on what I'm saying!

The word 'fck' does not seem vulgar anymore to me! #GodSaveMe

5. My patience on the road

When i started driving about 2 years back, i was only driving at 80 - 90KM/H max but my speed has went up to 140KM/H (fck, my mum gonna start scolding). I used to be super patience on the road, I give way to any Tom, Dick or Harry who wants to cut my queue la cause i scared I kena langgar la.

Me now:
*middle finger* fcker, you line up! *start cursing*

Time is precious and I know my life is even more precious, I have been trying to tone it down already but sometime stupid drivers sill get on my nerves very badly.

And, if you work closely with me, you would probably know I like to get things done as quickly as I can, that includes reaching home fast after a tiring day at work.

Well, I will try to drive at the speed limit, well good thing is I don't text and drive. I can't do it! I personally despise people who text and drive so I don't even bother. Most of the time, i voice not while I drive.


I have finished sharing a few of my bad habits that I think it's pretty easy to break, I guess its a matter of determination. Will keep you guys updated on progress on those mentioned above!

Share with me your bad habits as well! Don't feel embarrass man, everyone also have bad habits lo!

4 Ways To Know If A Person Dislikes You!

Writing this based on my personal experience, might not entirely apply for you but I guess some of these point might not be wrong.

In all my life, I have met true friends who stick close to you no matter what you do or where you come from. But, I have also met friends whom i have known for 10 years or more now that have made me lose faith in friendship sometimes!

I have come to a point in life whereby I just want to get rid of toxic friends, people who manipulate others to believe what they say is true. lol Actually today's topic is ways to know how a friend is getting rid of you la. I feel like i went out of topic for a second there.

Here we go:

1. No Eye Contact

During a gathering, that person tries to avoid all sort of eye contact with you. He/she tries
to act busy or walk away just to avoid looking into your eyes in hopes of not speaking to you. LOL

Eyes are the window to a person's soul, if somewhere were to speak to me without any sort of eye contact,I would definitely be able to sense that they are not keen to engage in any conversation.


2. Do Not Share With You

In this case, it would be pretty darn obvious if that person tries to shussh another person who is bringing up a topic he/she doesn't want you to know when you walk towards them. Please guys, don't feel offended if your 'friend' doesn't want to share his/her secrets/discussions with you, she has a right to do so! Curiosity shouldn't be taking the lead in this case.

If he/she knows that you are a good friend, including you in a discussion is pretty much a norm cause he/she knows you care.

3. Rushing To End The Conversation

Example:
Question: "How was your weekend?"

Answer: "It was good!"....*walks away*

Well guys, that is a clear signal to just fuck off! HAHAH because that said person has no intention in speaking to you in the first place. Don't bother to pursue further after you ask the third question and the response you get are short and close ended!


4. Not Replying Whole Heartedly

Intonation plays a big role in this case! If his/her tone is as flat as the ground then you have receive your signal once again!

Well, let me know if you are guilty of committing such deeds or you are able to detect that a 'friend' is trying to get rid of you. :)

Both Sides of A Story!

Putting my Hong Kong postings on hold for a bit because people have lost interest. lol.

Gonna do a little expressing today cause of a disappointing news i heard today. Human are constantly faced with all kind of disappointing from the moment that they are able to express their thoughts and make wise decisions.

How to overcome disappointment? Everyone overcomes disappointment in a different way, i usually takes things quite positively, this news that I have acquired today isn't affecting me much but once again, i'm reminded that decision/finalization/judgment should not be made after hearing something from one side. I admit to making hasty decisions/judgments sometimes. I was once told by a friend that people only believe one side of the story. For example, I have a close friend that I have known for many many years and she broke up with her bf, of cause we would be consulting her on regards to that matter. If her stories involved him wronging her and all sort, we would automatically think that, yeah he is definitely the jerk but have you actually sat down and spoke to the guy? Do we even know what he did and why he did all those? Nope because we trust the closer counterpart, which is absolutely wrong.

I have noticed that change of behaviour for quite some time already but i never thought of it that much because i have very minimal time at hand to think of things like, people doesn't like me, people thinking that I have not kept to my promise, people thinking that I have betrayed them. Of course, before i jump into conclusion and I would have to re-think if I really did all those to them or they were just thinking otherwise?

I have even thought of going upfront and question what was it that I did but I realised that wouldn't be very wise because if the first place, if you understand me, it is unlikely of me to act such despicably la but it's alright, sometimes negativity clouds a person's judgments.

At this moment, I have three priorities in life.

1. Work

Climbing up as high as I can at this point of time, be able to earn as much as I can now and to learn as much as I can in whichever industry I'm pursuing. Why? Because at the age of 23, if I do not have such goals, when should I have them? When I have children?
Because I am quite positive by the age of 28 or 30, I would be settled down and if i'm blessed, I would have children by then. At that point of time, I will promise not to be aggressive as I am now because I, like my mum, would like to pass on the best to my children.

2. Eric

Self explanatory. No matter what hinder comes about, he is still someone i would like to spend the rest of my life with. lol cehhhwahhh. But honestly, we have been through thick and thin, our relationship is at that point whereby we trust that we will not wrong each other, i mean i believe he feels that way too la. We have jumped over so many hinder from being rejections to long distance to almost breaking up. But, at this point I believe we are at our happiest and strongest. There isn't anything to fight about because we are able to tolerate each other. lol Thank you for being around always bi. Love you to the moon and back!

3. Travels

At this age, my biggest dream is to also conquer the world. lol. I want to be able to travel to as many destinations as I can before getting married. Of cause, if i can afford I would like to pay for my parents to tag along too. :)

I am very happy and grateful thus far. Our 1st trip was in Bali and this year, we managed Hong Kong, can't wait till next year May for a whole new experience and fun again! :)


Oh gosh, this was supposed to be a short posting, I have no idea how i came up with so much word vomits. LOL

I have only one advice to myself, care but never care too much. Give your best at everything and let god decides the rest hor..
