Warning: All words post.
I can never do what my roommate did. She is having her final paper today and last night after coming back to the room, she was sitting on her bed reading a story book. I was like O.O
Normally during exam times you can spot various symptoms popping out from your friends, roommate or housemates. For example, one of my housemate was mopping the floor this morning at 8 a.m. I promise you I've never seen her lift up a mop for the past few months until today. At eight. In the morning.
Other common symptoms are of course the Zombie-Like symptoms: blood shot eyes, cranky and moody, rages easily, very bad case of severe dark eye rings - cough, flying salivas everywhere, headache and groans + mumble inaudibly most of the time.
There are also those who fakes illness to get a Medical Sick Leave or some of them really DO fall sick during the course of 2 weeks where they have to take numerous torture papers during the span of this two weeks but whatever it is, I've never seen one like my current roommate. She manage to sit somewhere in the room and just concentrate and study weeks before and when the actual paper is coming, she could go on Facebook or read a story book so calmly.
I am one of those who had to pull an all nighter because I have to cram an entire semester (or even 2)'s knowledge into this mere 12 hours (not proud of it!) and most of the time, I go to the exam with an hour or maximum of three hours sleep.
Oh well enough of exams and all. (Ma & Pa, please don't lecture me on this. It's long over :D)
Yesterday, it rained all day long where I am at. From morning until night and early yesterday, I went to Shell Station to fill up my car. There wasn't anyone else there because it was quite early and I didn't bring any cash with me - I only brought a card with me. The cashier was rude, downright unhelpful and unpleasant. She told me there is a problem with my card after 1 try and refused to try it the second time and just keep waving at me from behind the counter, indicating that I should "get lost".
Fine.
I went to a second Shell Station and my goodness, the cashier was lovely as mad, helpful and there isn't any problem with my card at all. She was asking me all about the upcoming Lunar / Chinese New Year whether I have prepared all the food, clothes and everything and before I leave, she wished me a very Happy Chinese New Year. Seriously, two person doing the same thing could produce a very varying result. One makes you feel like burning her hair (not a smart idea when you are at a petrol station) and the other makes you to want to just hug her and wish her all the best.
Anyways, when I was halfway filling up my tank, a guy from the booth next to mine called out to me and my first instinct was: "Is he trying to scam me or some shit like that" due to all those chain emails about people distracting another so that they could enter the person's vehicle and something like that. I looked and him and he told me my tyre on the passenger side is punctured and when I walked over to look at it, the tyre indeed IS punctured. I was immediately ashamed of my initial thought and thank the guy profusely for pointing that out to me and just when I was wondering what I should do about this, an old man who works for Shell came over to me and told me to back my car up to the Air Filling Machine.
Note that the Air Filling Machine is positioned in an open space where there are no roof covering it and the uncle just walked out of the shed, straight into the rain and helped me fill my tyre up. I was so touched that I just got out of the car and stood under the rain with him even though I didn't do anything. I know it might be stupid to others but I thought that I could not let this person, who is older than my parents help me fill up my tyre under the rain while I just sit in my car and wait while listening to the radio. It just doesn't feel right that way. The uncle told me to get to the mechanic immediately to get the nail out (yes there was a nail sticking out like a sore thumb in my tyre) and get it fixed.
As I was on my way driving to the mechanics', I can't help but think to myself that I am really a very lucky person, surrounded by all this nice people. People whom I have never met in my entire life and maybe never ever again (like the guy from the next booth) yet they bothered to point out to me and helped me (old uncle). It's a very small gesture from them and it does not affect their lives even if they decide to not point it out to me but for me, it's a very big matter because driving on a rainy day with a problematic tyre IS a problem. Not so much of the changing of tyre or calling for help under the rain but rather safety problems. Perhaps I could be speeding and I could have injured myself in one way or another if the kind stranger had not point it out to me and I could be stranded for some time at the Shell Station if the old uncle had not helped me.
It really made me think that at times, it might not mean much to you but what you do or say to others could mean the world to them at that point of time. So be nice to thy neighbour. Be nice to thy kins and be nice to anyone that you could.

❤ Valentines Part 1 ❤
Needless to say, Valentine's drawing near whether you have a partner or you are single. IRREGARDLESS, it's NOT a crime for one to dress up even if one is single! Yesterday, I came across two fabulous ideas by the famous Michelle Phan and Lilith Moon where they gave a nail and hair tutorial which I found really perfect, simple and cute for this coming Valentine so I decided to reproduce their idea AND also improvise on the hair part <3
The end product of the day is as follows <3
It's real alright >D Nice isn't it!!! And can you believe that it's so simple to do?! It takes like 10 minutes for each! For the hair part, I have done it before in my earlier post: It's call hair chalking where you use soft pastels to temporarily dye your hair with some crazy colour.
For more tips and guides on Do's and Don'ts for hair chalking, read it here <3
My favourite line: Less words, more pictures!
OR, you can braid and THEN colour! Don't be shy and don't back away from being daring! Experiment with different colours and they won't hurt because they are not permanent and you might just end up with a very interesting combo! Try rainbow colour, I highly recommend it :D
For the part on how to make it into a heart shape, you merely require bobby pins but for detailed instructions, watch the original video below! <3
And now the nail part, I actually have a step by step pictorial tutorial, so scroll away!

Remember, it is very important that your hair is wet!
Next, just twist your hair and start applying the colour of your choice in ONE motion only, that is DOWNWARDS!
See how easy it is for the pigment to get onto your hair <3
After you are done with the colouring, you can then braid your hair!

Nutella & I
Who would ever have thought one could find a piece of Heaven on Earth so easily, packaged and bottled up, selling in departmental stores called Nutella. Comes in three heavenly sizes as well.
During those time of the month, all I want to do is just digest chocolate all day long. I am not sure if it really helps but it is the perfect excuse for one to eat chocolates and what is better than eating off an entire bottle of Nutella?
Convenient size and tasty as mad. All I have to bear in mind is not to choke on it like how I almost glue my mouth together with peanut butter. I am contemplating chomping down an entire bottle of Nutella and the ONLY reason stopping me is because I've got to fetch my mom next week. I don't want to risk being reported for trying to kidnap my mom for looking like this:
ARARARARARA!!
I don't want to play chase with her around the airport with her screaming "HELP! HELP! SOME FAT ASIAN KID IS TRYING TO EAT ME!" because she couldn't recognize me!!
All in all, Nutella is one evil piece of Heaven on Earth. Personal advice, when you see Nutella, run the opposite way as fast as your chubby radish leg can bring you!
Lolol <3 I love smart phone apps. They are awesome hahaha! They really enable you to express yourself in almost anyway you want <3
Original picture
P/s: Whoever knows, I might just look like that after Chinese New Year >D
Whatever it is guys, no matter how sad you are from break ups, how stressed you are from work or exams or how bad your stomach cramp is, try not to comfort yourself too much with comfort food. Seek for a friend's help or turn to your parents, NOT comfort food alright!
You might just fall into a worst depression AFTER you get over your first depression when you look at yourself in the mirror because comfort food are comforting for your emotions but it shows on your physique.

Genius!
At times, people do really stupid things without meaning to. I like to eat my bread with a thick layer of peanut butter , which my Godbrother had dubbed my bread as the 'Peanut Butter Glue Bread" because once, he took a bite out of my bread and he went quiet and chewed and chewed... and chewed. When he finally finished that bite, he told me he thought his mouth was glued together, by the sheer power of peanut better.
As usual, I will take a huge chunk of peanut butter first only then take the bread out and spread it on but today, after taking the bread and before spreading the peanut butter on, I realized that there were spots of mold growing on the bread so I stood there thinking what should I do. I threw the bread away AND THEN I stared at that huge spoonful of peanut butter, thinking hard of what I should do. There are no other bread in the house, nothing else that I can spread it on but I thought it would be so wasteful if I am to throw it so ......... I swallowed that lump of saliva and then I braved myself for that mouthful of peanut butter.
I thought my mouth was glued on for eternally as I started chewing (or at least TRYING to move my mouth) but after 10 seconds or more, I had to spit it out. It felt like eating a huge gum ball but with a chunky and sandy texture where it is very clay-ish yet slightly chewy yet chunky yet sandy. I reckon you should try it once to get what I mean.
Wasting or not, out it goes from my mouth. WEIURGH!
P/s: Internet is still down but worry not, look forward to my Valentines Post real soon! <3<3

Misunderstood Single / Only Child
Yesterday, out of curiousity I googled "Single Child" and the top 5 results that came out are this:
Tell me what do YOU think about it? I think it's fairly insulting truth be told. First of all, the repetition of the word 'syndrome'. Wikipedia, our forever faithful friend, defined Syndrome as:
Clinically recognize features. Now that is not very nice isn't it. Other than being branded as a person having clinically recognize features, a single child person cannot run off from being branded as the following in the most commonly used terms in numerical order:
ONE. SPOILED BRAT. This is the number 1 name calling that single child gets (not deserve) when asked if they have siblings and they say no.
Two. Selfish
Three. Bossy
Four. Lonely
Five. Maladjusted
Six. Troubles with social skills
Seven. Craves attention
Eight. Nasty and stubborn
The list goes on and on and never ending and most of it are pointing towards the negative side of a human being. According to Wikipedia, one is even dubbed as the "Little Emperor", which is saying someone who gets whatever they want anytime they want, subtlety or crudely saying that a single child is spoiled or overly pampered by their parents that their every whim is attended to. Trust me, we get scoldings and spankings more than you ever did because well, my parents can't just shout at some non-existing sibling that I don't have so when they have to yell at someone, that would be me, and only me. There is no CARTER, GET DOWN HERE! Or VERONICA WHY DID YOU PROVOKE YOUR SISTER! It's MICHELLE YOU COME HERE THIS INSTANCE! or MICHELLE WHY DID YOU EAT GRANDMA'S CAKE? or MICHELLE I KNOW IT'S YOU WHO DREW ON THE WALL, NOT YOUR IMAGINARY FRIEND JENNIFER! You get the picture.
Then let me ask you, what did single child ever do to deserve all this name branding? Just because a person does not have siblings does not mean they are naturally the nastiest or most selfish person on Earth, nor are they socially awkward around people. Just because someone HAS siblings does not mean the person has leadership quality, kind and caring and shares everything they has.
On the VERY CONTRARY, I would've thought that a single child is MORE willing to SHARE their things because they never have the need of being protective or territorial over their space or toys that most people with siblings would feel, unless if of course their age gap is huge.
I would also believe that single child are people who matures faster than children with siblings simply because, you can't expect their parents to talk gugu gaga to them all the time. They are more attentive and sensitive to adult's conversation rather than their peers because ever since young, they have been exposed to adult (parents) talking and even though a child might not be able to respond or communicate fluently, their still comprehend. They get the gist of what the adults are talking about and because of constant exposure and 'hanging out' with adults, they actually get a sense of the real world faster than children with siblings who are constantly dolled up with fairy tales of Santa or Tooth Fairy or fighting to see who gets the last limb of that poor toy.
I've even read a report about one problem that single child has - talking to themselves and having imaginary friend. The last time I checked, almost EVERY child, regardless or not whether they are the only child or not TALKS to THEMSELVES and HAVE imaginary friend! So JUST because they are the only child, this automatically becomes a PROBLEM for them and it's deemed completely NORMAL for kids with siblings? What nonsense is this?! It's like telling a single child that its a crime to have a toy but it would be alright if that same toy was given and shared between two kids.
Do you guys see just how conceited and judgmental you guys are?
Generally, only child do not have much problem in their social environments because if they could understand adults and converse with them in adult topic, it is very likely that they are able to converse with their peers. It's like knowing how to do algebra first and then only starting to get to know how to do adding and subtraction. Easy peasy. Perhaps the ONLY reason they are not very keen to be socially friendly with their peers is because they think that whatever they are talking about is too kiddish or immature for them, heh. That is also a reason why only child likes to talk to people beyond their age, because they feel like the topic is more synced to their thinking.
Only child also feels a heavier sense of responsibility, contrary to others beliefs who thinks only child are spoiled, insensitive brat who has no sense of whatever is going around the world and is only stuck in their own world and that the world revolves around them. If you are thinking of that, you have got it wrong. That applies to those tycoon's kids who were taught that money can buy the world. If you are rich but your parents taught you that money isn't everything, parents, good job, you have done parenting right.
Why would I say only child has a heavier sense of responsibility? I can explain it in a mathematical term: Probability. When you have multiple siblings, say 4 siblings, the probability of having 1 successful kid and 3 useless kids is split into the ratio of 1:3 The probability of having 2 successful kids and 2 useless kids is a 50% chance thing. You get the picture. When you have siblings, chances for them to succeed is higher, thus when their parents reaches the age of say 65, they would have at least 1 kid who will have the means to take care of them. If they are lucky, they might have 2 or 3 or even all 4 kids who had succeeded in life and then take care of them.
A single child, if you are useless, your parents are screwed. If you are successful, the burden is still all on you to take care of everything: Your life and both your parents life. That's 3 lives that you have to take care of single handedly. Siblings can still divide costs, monthly allowance and everything among themselves. Even just having one other sibling, you are able to lighten up your burden by half but for single child, you do not have that choice. As you grow up in life, you would know that you have to shoulder the entire burden and thus, setting the single child's character to be a person with a sense of responsibility.
If you think all that I've said above is not true, fine, that is up to you but the upcoming one that I am going to say is undeniable, as much as you want to. Single child BONDS with their parents in a manner unlike to others that you have ever known. This does not have to be explained. I dare say any single child who reads this will definitely agree with me. You have no idea how magical that bond is between a single child and their parents so parent's don't worry. You will never even hear of one old folks home name.
Single child also suffers lesser inferiority complex because they are not constantly compared to their siblings who perhaps outshines them. Though parents always says they love all their child equally, at times it is harder to maintain that equal love especially if you have two very different child and the odd one out will feel even more neglected that they already are in the first place.
I mean, even you also can't help liking person A more than person B right? >D
Another interesting fact is, if a single child runs into problem, the first person that they would call up is their parents no matter how bad the problem is. The worst the problem the faster they dial their parent's phone number. They do not confide that much with their peers unlike people with siblings, they confide in their peers or their own siblings but never their parents.
Just a small tip: Do you know that being friends with a single child actually benefits you as well? Because single child parents are terrified that their kid would be lonely, thus always being extra nice and extra friendly to their kid's friends. Free car rides, free food, free movies and almost anything that they could give to their child, they might give it to you too because single child parents do feel guilty for not giving the single child a sibling, thus if they see that their child have a nice companion, they would automatically be nice and loving towards their child's companion as well.
I am not saying it's better to be a single child or it's bad to have siblings. All I am saying is its very unfair to have all this branding and judging going on around for single child. Single child too, have feelings. We do not like those looks that you guys have on your face when we say that we are single child. It is the look of "ooooooooooooooh, that explains why you are so spoiled'. That is pure nonsense. Anyone can be stubborn. Anyone can be a social outcast and anyone can be nasty and no just single child person.

Given the Chance / Forced to Say Whatever's on Your Mind for 2 Hours in Your Entire Life
Would be the most disastrous 2 hours of the existence of your life.
Everyone would start stabbing each other with a knife. I foresee that this will be worst than a zombie apocalypse because everyone's limb is 100% functioning. No slow walking or dragging limbs zombie after you. Some of them could just Bolt (Usain) their way towards you and give you a karate chop straight at your face.
What are you going to do?
Needless to say we are living in a society full of hypocrites or just some that don't dare to say whats on their mind, those who are beating around the bush but it due to this "courtesy" that we are able to live in peace with each other to a certain extent.
Rachel : I've lost weight till 48 kg!!
mish : Awesome!! That's so light!
(inner voice: but your hips still looks like a hippo)
We are always throwing compliments around and says the best that we could see in people but that's because really, how are we going to go about telling people the worst that we have seen in them even if we wish to? It's like telling a woman her facial feature is superbly pretty but her nose is off centre. That's like courting death itself.
No matter what we say to others, there will always be a line or a filter where there are some other things that we have thought of but we are not able to say it, provided if we aim to hurt or to savage a relationship then of course you can say it. Most of the time we just keep it to ourselves because these are thoughts that do not have to be made known to others.
Everyone is always hiding something and it is this little voice that keeps the peace at bay. Imagine telling everyone everything without a filter or a full stop.
Phil : Thanks for your present! But I don't really like it. I mean, this book that you have given me isn't even the genre that I always read and why the hell did you get me a soft cover book? Looks cheap, feels cheap and even makes me look cheap when I am holding it!
You get the picture. This World would be in chaos if such an invention were ever to be invented. Perhaps it is not about being a hypocrite but rather to know when you should hold your tongue and be courteous. There is no such thing as being 100% truthful or honest with whatever you say unless if you are prepared to abandon ship and live alone for the rest of your life, severing ties from your kins and friends.
The only person who is probably nearest to the point of being 'truthful' is Taylor Swift with all her break up songs >D
And for the record, I will hide myself in a cupboard, shutting myself from the outside world for that 2 hours. No human interaction please!!
____
P/s: My internet is still down and I have to steal wifi everywhere I go. Mcdonalds, Godbrother's place, anywhere with that darn wifi signal. I feel so crippled without Internet QQ

mish : Awesome!! That's so light!

We are always throwing compliments around and says the best that we could see in people but that's because really, how are we going to go about telling people the worst that we have seen in them even if we wish to? It's like telling a woman her facial feature is superbly pretty but her nose is off centre. That's like courting death itself.
No matter what we say to others, there will always be a line or a filter where there are some other things that we have thought of but we are not able to say it, provided if we aim to hurt or to savage a relationship then of course you can say it. Most of the time we just keep it to ourselves because these are thoughts that do not have to be made known to others.
Everyone is always hiding something and it is this little voice that keeps the peace at bay. Imagine telling everyone everything without a filter or a full stop.
Phil : Thanks for your present! But I don't really like it. I mean, this book that you have given me isn't even the genre that I always read and why the hell did you get me a soft cover book? Looks cheap, feels cheap and even makes me look cheap when I am holding it!
You get the picture. This World would be in chaos if such an invention were ever to be invented. Perhaps it is not about being a hypocrite but rather to know when you should hold your tongue and be courteous. There is no such thing as being 100% truthful or honest with whatever you say unless if you are prepared to abandon ship and live alone for the rest of your life, severing ties from your kins and friends.
The only person who is probably nearest to the point of being 'truthful' is Taylor Swift with all her break up songs >D
And for the record, I will hide myself in a cupboard, shutting myself from the outside world for that 2 hours. No human interaction please!!

Did you ever wonder how come so many people around the world are scammed whether in real life or via online daily? In Malaysia, things actually get worst because we have so call "Shamans" here who is believed by the local to be able to cure sickness or ward off evil spirits. Many a times this fake Shamans claim that they possess the power to cleanse away any sickness or evil spirits by sleeping with them and the girls normally consent due to belief.
At times, the Shamans proves themselves to be really capable of communicating with dead spirit or being able to read your fortune like a book. The question is, do they really?
The following Youtube video is an eye opener on how one should never be too gullible or easily accepting of what some others might tell you. It could be a complete stranger who can tell you stuff about yourself but there might be a perfectly explainable reason for that.
Do watch it <3 It's only a 2-min video :D
At times, life ain't all that miraculous. If a group of people or a certain person really puts their mind into wanting to scam you, they can do that, pretty easily because nowadays, there are no such things as privacy or keeping this low key because EVERYONE is posting EVERYTHING about themselves EVERYWHERE: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Blog, Foursquare etc etc
I of course am a fan of Facebook and Blog but most of the time, I do stop myself from posting my exact location and checking in at certain places because why would I want to show the world where I am at that very moment. It's different if I post on Facebook 4 hours later where I WAS after I got home. It's not about being paranoid. It's about better being safe than sorry.
If possible, do not post too much things connected to your private life on public websites such as your cell phone number, car number, where you live, where you are at the moment, where is your work place, how many pieces of jewelleries that you own and things like that. If you do post stuff like that (for whatsoever unknown reasons), you are only asking for it because it makes you a relatively easier target than others who kept a low profile.
3 or 4 people at the same time? >D
Selling house??
Or this? >D
Well seriously guys, only two types of people could do this to you and one of them will never do it. The one being your friend will never have ill intention towards you unless if it's a prank but those who are lurking at the dark shadows might have a different intention towards this kind of information that they could use towards you.
Know how to get yourself out of trouble, protect yourself
This applies also to criticizing people on your social network. Always the best example: Your boss or colleagues. I've seen those real life posts where some silly employee swears at their employers on their Facebook, forgetting of the fact that they have added their employers as friends and the end result ain't pretty of course.
My advice is: Post wisely.
If you don't have anything good or smart to say, then keep it to yourself or confide in a friend whom you know you can trust not to babble it on THEIR social network after you told them if not that would be defeating the purpose.
You get the point.
See you next post!

Me to Friend A: I hid a pot of gold at my backyard.
Friend A to Facebook: HOLY MOLLY, MISHBERRIES HAVE A POT OF GOLD HIDDEN AT HER BACKYARD!
You get the point.
