Take a moment to look around and see where you are standing right now.
Take a moment to look around and see what you have.
Look at the amount of things you have at your disposal.
Take a good look, and reflect.
One important reminder, though.
NEVER, EVER compare yourself to anyone.
Some may have all of the things you want.
Sometimes, it's making your eyes burn green in jealousy.
You might say, "She is damn lucky. I wish I can have that."
It's very easy for someone to say that but the thing is...
You absolutely have NO IDEA what the person is going through.
Some might have it all, but that doesn't mean that they're happy.
To me, the most important thing in life is having a heart that is content, truly happy and at peace; no matter how little or how much you own.
The most important thing is to be able to smile honestly, with a heart filled with contentment.
I might have a lot. But, that doesn't mean that I truly want it all.
What I wish for is nothing extravagant.
I wish that I could live a simple life of my own, doing my own thing, making my own choices.
I'm not even thinking of getting this and that.
Things were shoved onto me, my opinions don't even matter.
I'm falling, getting weaker to stand up on my two feet.
Yes, I sound weak. I do think that I am getting weaker.
And I'm getting tired to even try.
I wish I listened to my instincts.
I hate the fact that I can't even smile honestly anymore.
It's mental torture, I need to get out.
I might seem to have it all.
But, take a moment to look at me in the eye and ask, "What do you think?" or "What do you feel?"
And actually listen to what I have to say instead of just listening to your own voice.
I can't take away this frown, I can't even feel happiness when I'm supposed to be happy.
I hate myself for this. Don't make me hate you more.

Universal Studios, Singapore (USS): Getting There from Malacca + Tips & Tricks!
A lot of you may not know this, but, there's a shuttle bus service from Melaka straight to Universal Studios, Singapore!
I found out about this just a few days before going to USS myself.
The shuttle bus service is under 707 Travel & Tours Sdn. Bhd. that provides transportation services to Singapore from Melaka at a very low price of RM23.
Find out more about 707 Travel & Tours:
http://www.707-travel.com.sg/
or you can locate them at:
G-31, Jalan PM 5, Plaza Mahkota, Bandar Hilir, 75000 Melaka.
But, when I was planning the trip, I didn't go to 707 straight away.
I contacted Kirana Holidays Sdn. Bhd. and got into contact with En. Najad.
I heard from a friend that I can contact him to arrange a trip to USS using the 707 bus service which entitle me to an all-day entrance ticket to USS + $5 food voucher + $5 retail voucher + shuttle service from Melaka straight to Sentosa Singapore (where USS is located along with other attractions such as a casino and hotels nearby the USS theme park). The bus took off at 6.30 a.m. (standby time 6 a.m. at Petron Melaka Sentral) and reached USS just before 11 a.m. (depending on traffic). Knock yourself out all day long and go back to where the bus dropped you off by 5 p.m., which is around the Sentosa parking lot itself so no worries, it's pretty convenient. Since USS opens its gates from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., the timing is pretty nice. It was a Saturday, October 4th. We reached Melaka at around 10.30 p.m. the same day. The bus stopped at Yong Peng for breakfast and dinner during the back-and-forth travel.
How much did I spend on these? Only RM188 (all-day entrance ticket to USS + $5 food voucher + $5 retail voucher + shuttle service from Melaka straight to Sentosa Singapore).
Here are some tips and tricks!
#1
Remember to convert some RMs to Singapore dollars beforehand, tho. We did the exchange in USS and the service charge was pretty high. I changed RM150 to dollars only to receive about 60$. But, it was worth having some dollars in your hand coz you'll be very tempted to buy some souvenirs AND you don't want to waste the $10 vouchers you get along with the entrance pass. You definitely need some cash to use those vouchers. A couple of corndogs worth $4 each will definitely keep you full the whole time. So, do get your dollars!!
Personally, I think spending RM150 is nice enough for a single person. With the dollars I got, I bought a mug, a nice key-chain, USS T-shirt + cap, and two corndogs for the rumbling tummy (making full use of the $5 retail and $5 food vouchers). Not bad at all.
#2
Having a small backpack will help. Bring one or two bottled water bought beforehand to save some cash. Since the bus will take off from a petrol station with a convenient store, it's good to stock up on H2O and small snacks/buns. Plus, you will be bringing stuff like power bank and cameras so a handy backpack will definitely make your life easier.
#3
Since you will be doing a lot of cardio by walking through the theme park, wear comfy shoes or even better, a pair of sneakers! Going to USS on weekends means you will also need to queue a lot (we queued for almost 3 hours for the Transformers ride) so wear comfy outfits. Some rides are splashy, so you might get wet. Do bring along an extra T-shirt or something, in case the day is hot and sunny which will drench you in sweat.
#4
You need to scan your belongings before and after entering the border. So, no alcohols or weapons or harmful stuff. You can only bring in some cigarettes tho. Half a pack of cigarettes are okay in our experience.
#5
As for the rides, the Transformers ride (they call it EVACs) is A MUST. We queued for hours to get in and it was totally worth it. I don't even want to tell you the details coz I think the suspense is worth it. We didn't even knew what it's all about while wasting 3 hours of our life but apparently, it wasn't a waste after all, enough said.
We managed to get into the Steven Spielberg's Special Effects studio, Transformers and Madagascar's rides. The rest of the day was spent on taking pictures, shopping and eating. It was a long weekend, so, most of the rides were packed with people. We spent quite a long time with shopping tho. If we didn't, we might get onto another ride.
#6
If you're looking for a specific kind of merchandise, you can go to the various souvenir shops (Shrek's, Madagascar, Minions Mart, etc.) but do take a good look around the Universal Studio Store as they have more options there. The mistake I made was I bought the T-shirt and cap combo in Shrek's Fairy Godmother Potion Shop in Faraway Land, where they only offer two colors, each for men and women. Little did I know that on our way back to exit the theme park, Universal Studio Store has a wider variety of the same T-shirt and cap combo in so many different colors. I was pretty bummed out. You will find more exciting offers at the shops and kiosks nearby the entrance/exit doors, for example 3 key-chains for $15.
*I think the T-shirt and cap combo is the best grab, it costs $35 which is, to me, a value buy*
#7
Take lots of pictures and keep an eye on the random movie characters coming out to take pictures with visitors! Characters like Marilyn Monroe will be ready for the camera flashes.
Before I let go of any more spoilers, do consider of planning a trip to USS. We had a blast and I hope you will too. ;)

2014: The Ups and Downs
Dear blog,
I'm sorry for neglecting you all this while. I've been writing a lot in my physical diary/journal which I think is more suitable for super personal stuff. But, lately I've been thinking of writing something more general and worth sharing with the world. It might get a bit personal but overall, it's just another update of the many things I've discovered and experienced throughout the year.
I realized I had been going on many fun trips this year. The last update was about my Tioman trip with friends, and that was back in March. After that trip, I went back to the stressful environment of my final semester in college. That story is filled with many breakdowns and self-esteem issue so I won't talk about it no more. One detail though that affected my life up until now, I haven't graduated, yet. I still have a research study to finish so yea, I'm still working on it. Apart from that, life has been great. :D
I moved to Muar to live with my mom and I couldn't say it's a fun thing to live with your mom unless both of you don't argue so much. But, I'm holding on. I wished to live on my own in Shah Alam but since that's not happening, I'm trying to make myself super happy with fun plans, new hobbies and awesome trips with friends; while trying to finish my thesis all at once.
Earlier this month, a good friend of mine proposed an exciting idea of going to Singapore. With only 3 days to plan everything, I managed to put things together quite well and off we went to Singapore on the 4th of October, 2014. We took the bus heading to Universal Studios Singapore from Melaka and we had so much fun. That trip started everything. We booked a guesthouse along Melaka Riverside, spent a night there, went sight-seeing the next day, went back to Muar where I passed out pretty instantly as soon as I hit the bed, and then off to KL the next day. I spent 2 nights in KL, went on two Tinder dates that went, "hmm, meh" (with a straight-face), and then off to Miri for Intan's wedding *Intan is my best friend since we were 11*. The wedding was beautiful, I was reunited with many primary/secondary school friends, had a blast, cried a bit coz I couldn't believe Intan is now a married woman, and went on another Tinder date which was an awesome one with a cool dude and a friend I just met from the wedding (oh, and I made a bunch of new friends from Kuching who came to the wedding, super cool girls), and I went back to KL. The trip didn't stop there, though. Intan's parents invited me to stay in KL where they rented a nice service apartment for two nights and during the day, we went to Bukit Tinggi in Pahang. This trip was actually for Intan's cousins who came from Hatyai who wanted to go sight-seeing around Malaysia. Bukit Tinggi is a good place for that, where you can visit the famous Colmar Tropicale, a classic French-countryside vacation spot made up of beautiful buildings, hotels, restaurants and courtyards. Before we went back to KL, we visited the Animal Park and fed bunnies and deer. Awesome. Back in KL, I went on another Tinder date that went "uhh, meh" (again) and totally shook it off quite easily. Met Weng for lunch the day after before I headed back to Muar.
Hence, the Muar-Melaka-Singapore-Melaka-Muar-KL-Miri-KL-Pahang-KL-Muar trip consumed the first three weeks of October 2014. And now I'm back in Muar, hibernating for a week. This weekend we were supposed to go to Tambun Lost World in Ipoh but we had to scratch off that plan for some reason. Now the post-vacation stress (?) is carefully cured with a shopping trip, PS3 and PC games, while trying to finish off my thesis, of course.
I think there's a high chance for me to do reviews on the trips mentioned above, along with makeup reviews I've been thinking about for a while now and some rants on several issues. Guess it might be helpful for many people out there.
I don't want to talk much about the 'downs' of the year coz I might go teary (hah haa) but I generally refuse to focus on that when I try to recap or remember something. Focusing on the good things seems more appealing, and it sure is.
Plus, I think when you were reading this post, I bet you realize I went on a lot of Tinder dates. Tinder is a cool app where you can get "matched" with cool guys (or girls) and you get to chat with them. I didn't went in to deep with this app but hey, within a month I managed to set up good first meetings with the guys I met on Tinder (4 in total). Although the conversations didn't last long with most of them, but I had fun meeting new people. I had pretty decent outings with those guys. :)
This last bit might not be so important but I'm gonna write about it anyway. Many items from my wishlist are checked/on its way to completion: changed my Samsung Galaxy S5 to iPhone 5S, got myself a polaroid camera, halfway through completing my driver's licence, braces for my teeth on its way, great platform for makeup reviews with free products (yay!) and of course, on my way to graduating.
Alhamdulillah.
Wish me luck. Trying my best to live life to the fullest and let things happen naturally. :)

Tioman Trip 2014
Hello, pretty people!!
It's been a while.
I miss this blog and this is a good time to publish an amazing story. :D
The last blogpost I published revolves around the friends I've made last year.
I feel so blessed that I would never trade this friendship for anything else.
Somehow, I thank you, Abd. Rahman Menteri for making my life miserable.
Amazing things bloom from that dreadful life event.
Cakap panjang pun tak guna, what matter most is that this friendship had brought me to the amazing, wonderful island of Tioman.
It took us months to plan the trip. In the end, there were only 7 of us instead of 10 from the original plan.
And when it actually happened; the weather, the date, the timing ... were perfect.
It was a weekend getaway; 28th - 31st March 2014 (Friday-Monday)
We allocated RM600 for the trip, the package worth RM450. The rest was for gas, toll, snorkel gear, jungle trekking and other miscellaneous.
We took off from KL and the journey to Tg. Gemok Jetty in Rompin, Pahang took around 4-5 hours. The ferry from Tg.Gemok - Tioman departed at 11am and Tioman - Tg.Gemok at 2pm.
We selected the Juara Mutiara holiday package for 4D3N where the RM450 budget includes:
1. Chalet for 4 persons (2 queen-sized beds, TV, Astro, air-conditioner, dressing table, huge and clean bathroom with water heater).
2. Breakfast, lunch and dinner for the rest of the stay + BBQ
3. Guided trip to the waterfall (jungle trekking)
4. Snorkeling at 4 different spots around the island
5. Transportation for all activities - Toyota Hilux
6. Ferry (mainland-Tioman, Tioman-mainland)
7. Karaoke + jamming nights
If you ask me, the price is pretty worth it.
The locals were very friendly and we felt so much at home.
The scenery's to die for.
If you choose to stay at the Juara Mutiara Resort which is in Kpg. Juara, you will get the side of the horizon where you can see sunrises instead of sunsets.
Since I love the beach and sunsets so much, it was very refreshing to finally found a new passion for sunrises.
Jungle-trekking was perhaps the most tiring activity of all.
The journey to the waterfall/natural spring water took us around half an hour. We were guided by a bunch of amazing 10 year-old kids who seem to have the jungle as their playground. We were panting and sweating like crazy but we couldn't see even a drop of sweat on their brows. Swallowing our pride, we managed to get to the waterfall and the water was freakishly cold, but super refreshing. The water tasted sweet, I wish I sipped more than I've had. :p
Another half an hour for the journey back to the village, and it was much easier than climbing up the terrain.
With the package in hand, you just need around RM100 (maybe less) pocket money so that you can buy drinks for the activities, try out other delicacies available excluded in the package as well as for your cravings once you enter the duty-free shop in Tioman.
The duty-free shop we visited in Tioman was the one in Kg. Tekek. They have chocolates, souvenirs, beach necessities, all kinds of booze and cigars.
The booze and cigars are super cheap, but the chocolates are not as cheap as we expected.
Another duty-free shop is located in Kpg. Salang. Salang Beach is one of the most popular beach in Tioman Island because the nightlife is probably more 'happening' there.
Perfect for young groups like us but we chose Kpg. Juara because the list of activities looks more appealing to us.
The trip was amazing and I had so much fun.
Thank you, God, for the opportunity and I wish we can plan more holidays in the future.
Next year: Pangkor!!!
:D
toodles.

Social 2013
It's funny how we met and how we got to know each other.
But nevertheless, it is an interesting story.
Nurul Jannah, a friend I made unexpectedly.
She's a wonderful person and she's been a wonderful friend.
And by befriending her, I met some amazing people that I never thought I would meet.
I've been introduced to so many people that it feels quite ... unbelievable, in a good way.
Since I love making lists, here's another one.
This is going to be one of the most precious list I've ever made because it's filled with the fuzziness of friendship. :)
From Rahman, I got to know a beautiful lady named Nurul Jannah.
And by knowing her, my network expanded.
Here's a list of the people I got introduced to for the past one year.
1. Ery
2. Uda
3. Suraya
4. Botak
5. Wan Ehsan
6. Arif
7. Kwn Ery (can't remember his name!)
8. Kwn Arif (from PD)
9. Nur Fazlin - Maher and the family (around 5/6 of them) + Midi, Paan (MSU guys)
10. Zhafri
11. Hassan
12. Saiful
13. Fatima
14. Redzuan
15. Apis
16. Weng - Izy
17. Cik Pah
18. Ija
19. .....
I think there's more to the list.
Recalling these names is not an easy task.
Not to mention the people I met from my practicum.
Pheww, I feel blessed.
:')

I'm feeling 22
Hello 22.
Nothing much to say, really.
It's just another birthday.
I feel so blessed throughout the year.
Made lots of new friends. I'm going to talk about that in another post *coming soon*
21 had been a lot of fun.
As always, for every birthday I will pull out the routine of reevaluation of many sorts of things.
That includes how I see myself in many kinds of life situations, state of heart and feelings, etc.
This year, I'm celebrating my birthday in Muar with my mom.
My friends had celebrated my birthday wayy earlier (1st Nov) because then I know I will not be around on the actual birth date.
We had lots of fun. One of the greatest times of my life. :')
Earlier today, I had the chance to go out to the famous jetty in Muar to relax and enjoy the view.
I was out on my own, and I certainly had some time to really hear myself think.
Somehow it feels like the right thing to do at that time.
Usually I would evaluate how I live throughout the age-21 of my life.
It seems like I treat my birthday like new year, where you reevaluate and make resolutions,etc.
It is my own new year, not anyone else's.
That's special to me.
For now, I would just try to be comfortable and grateful with whatever that has been laid down for me.
I would wanna feel wonderful and comfortable of being single so that I can focus on what's coming next.
I've finished the 1st half of my final year, I think that's a big one.
And the biggest is coming......where I have to actually try to graduate on time.
As for anything else, they can either wait or come in whenever the time is right.
I really don't want to push anything emotional in right now.
Be realistic.
Anything else?
Maybe I'll save it for later.
This is a special post to celebrate the special day.
The rest will be coming in as planned.
toodles. :)

Earlier today, I had the chance to go out to the famous jetty in Muar to relax and enjoy the view.
I was out on my own, and I certainly had some time to really hear myself think.
Somehow it feels like the right thing to do at that time.
Usually I would evaluate how I live throughout the age-21 of my life.
It seems like I treat my birthday like new year, where you reevaluate and make resolutions,etc.
It is my own new year, not anyone else's.
That's special to me.
For now, I would just try to be comfortable and grateful with whatever that has been laid down for me.
I would wanna feel wonderful and comfortable of being single so that I can focus on what's coming next.
I've finished the 1st half of my final year, I think that's a big one.
And the biggest is coming......where I have to actually try to graduate on time.
As for anything else, they can either wait or come in whenever the time is right.
I really don't want to push anything emotional in right now.
Be realistic.
Anything else?
Maybe I'll save it for later.
This is a special post to celebrate the special day.
The rest will be coming in as planned.
toodles. :)

Mindblowing Psychology Test
The other day, I was hanging out with some friends from college.
He told me he wanted to put me on a psychology test.
All I have to do was answer a set of questions without thinking too much.
You know, answers that pop into your mind the first time you're asked each question.
So...the questions should start with a description of a situation:
You are about to enter a jungle. You can name the jungle with any name you want (utterly unnecessary but never mind. This is how it started for me. Just to make things seem more interesting by giving it a name)
WARNING!!!
DO NOT READ THE EXPLANATIONS BEFORE YOU ASK YOURSELF THESE QUESTIONS.
TO MAKE IT SUPER EFFECTIVE, GIVE THESE QUESTIONS TO YOUR FRIEND AND ASK HIM/HER TO PROMPT YOU SO THAT YOU CAN ANSWER MORE COMFORTABLY.
This is to avoid unnecessary influences to your answers. The answers should be spontaneous and at the same time, honest.
So, here comes the questions.........
1. You are walking in the jungle. Then suddenly, you hear something moving on your right. What animal do you think it is?
2. As you carry on, you hear another sound coming from your left. What animal do you think it is?
3. You walk on...and suddenly you see a campfire. What would you do?
4. When you're done with all that, you carry on with the journey. Then, you see two houses in front of you. One is small and the other one is big. Which house would you pick?
5. So, next you go to the house of your selection. As you walk into the house, you see broken glasses shattered on the entrance. What would you do?
6. Either you enter or exit the house, you can see a waterfall just beside the house. Describe the velocity of the waterfall within the scale of 1 to 5. 1 being the lowest and 5 being the highest.
7. Next, you leave the house and continue your journey. Then, you come across a still water. What would you do?
8. After you're done with all that, you see an exit from the jungle. Describe the exit.
REMEMBER. ANSWER THE QUESTIONS FIRST BEFORE GOING FOR THE EXPLANATIONS.
If you don't have anybody to help you prompt these questions, then just write the answers somewhere suitable. You'll be rewarded. :)

So... Here comes the explanations for each question. It is believed that each answer reflects yourself in certain life situations.
Question number.....
1. The animal you chose represents how you perceive yourself as a person.
2. The animal you chose represents how other people perceive you as a person.
3. The actions you take when you see the fire represents how you would do when you are faced with risks. So, if you approach the fire in a certain manner, that shows how you handle/take risks in your life.
4. Your choice simply represents your materialistic wants/needs.
5. Your reaction describes how you deal with problems or challenges in life.
6. The scale simply reflects your level/state of desire and lust. Generally speaking.
7. Your action reflects how much care or affection you put in relationships, specifically to your partner.
8. The description of your exit shows how you perceive your future to be like.
The answers are all based on your own perception. For example, if you see your exit as a vortex, maybe you see your future to be just like a vortex. It sucks you inside, not knowing where it will take you.
Have fun.
Ask yourself these questions and realize who you really are.
