In The Waiting


This post might be a short one…or it might be a long one. We’ll never know.

As most of you would’ve probably known by now that I’ve graduated university (finally!) last year and now the next step is, yes you’ve guessed it right, searching for a job. Let me tell you that searching for a job itself is a full time job and it’s genuinely no joke. It really does take a toll on you mentally and…

What Dealing With A Difficult Landlord Has Taught Me

What Dealing With A Difficult Landlord Has Taught Me

As some of you may know that I spent 2 years (supposedly 3 years but…pandemic) in the UK and more specifically Brighton. This blog post is just based on my experience and lessons (expensive ones) that I’ve learned. If you’re a new reader, I was in Brighton, UK for studies since 2018. Please do not take my advices too seriously and seek professional help and advices if you’re looking to rent a…

Living In The What Ifs

Living In The What Ifs

Growing up, I was always told to not dwell on the ‘what ifs’ and ‘should haves’ because it’s not healthy. However, with a global pandemic going on and my entire plan went down the drain, I can’t help but dip my toe into the metaphorical pond of ‘what ifs’ where we are all living in an alternate universe without a global health crisis. While I’m definitely way beyond upset, disappointed and…

The End Of Another Chapter During A Pandemic

The End Of Another Chapter During A Pandemic

Where do I even begin with this post? It’s definitely been a crazy chapter of my life and a lot has happened since the last post. So, grab yourself some snacks and tea/ coffee before you begin this roller coaster ride of a blog post because I probably do have loads to talk about.

If you’re from Malaysia, you’ll probably know that we’re back into lockdown and if you’re not well, Malaysia is back…

A Summary Of 2020

A Summary Of 2020

Well, crazy would be an understatement to describe 2020 but it will do for now. Who would’ve thought that wearing a mask will be a norm and not wearing one…well, you’re just being a selfish buttface. WEAR A MASK! Now that we’ve established that, moving on. Not only has this year messed up ans basically rearranged everyone’s plan but it has also threw us into a loop of uncertainties (which is…

2020 Lockdown Favorites

As we all know, the world kind of shut down beginning of this year and in most countries it still is. Naturally, we have to find new hobbies and things to do to fill the time that we have at home. This is definitely a way where it gives us a chance to find new things to be passionate about or discover a new hobby that we never knew we would love.

I am someone who loves staying home and I…

A Must To Visit: TeddyVille Museum Penang

A Must To Visit: TeddyVille Museum Penang

Anyone here likes history? No? Yes? Okay, well, what if I tell you that teddy bears are involved in this history “class”…more of a museum but you get the point? Sounds cool? Sounded like everything I’ve wanted when I first heard about this place because I’m a HUGEsucker for teddy bears and I do like history…I’m such a dork, I know. Anyway, put those two together (teddy bears and history) and you…

Spicing Up 2019 Before It Ended

Spicing Up 2019 Before It Ended

Before 2019 ended, I wanted to try a few new things that were available in Penang. While some of the activities were common but some were quite new and it was fun to just be able to learn something new that’s available locally. Also, I figured I could share my experience and whether it will be worth spending your money on these classes.

These classes are also a great way for you to spend…

Highlights Of 2019

What a year it has been for the world and so much has happened last year as well. I honestly do not even know where to begin so this post will probably be all over the place but I’ll definitely try to write everything that happened in sequence (that’s if my memory is being cooperative). I figured that since everyone is in lockdown and I’ve submitted all of my assignments for the semester that I…

A New Chapter In Life

A New Chapter In Life

So, I’m officially in the land of tea and crumpets. No, I’m not here on a holiday but I’m actually living and studying here. It feels kinda surreal. Some of you may know that I’m the most homey girl in the world and now I’m halfway across the world…alone. It’s scary, nerve wrecking but exciting at the same time. Not to blow my own trumpet but I’m actually quite proud of myself for actually making…

July Favorites

I know I’ve been MIA but let me explain. Ya girl here *points to self* lives a really boring and an unproductive life so there’s nothing worth writing about. I wasn’t sure if I should even write this post or even post it because I’m not one of those famous bloggers to be qualified to post this but then I thought again and said why not? This could be for my own future reference. I may or may not…

Cafe Hopping in Penang

Before I start this post, I just want to say that I am NO food blogger, coffee or food connoisseur (so please don’t be too hard on me when reading this post). My friend and I just decided that we should visit a few of the new cafes since we haven’t visited any together in a long time and also to keep ourselves updated as Penangites. Everything that’s written here is just based on my experience.…

A Reflection of 2017

I saw a few (well, a lot of) people who are doing a reflection of last year (dang, it’s weird to say that) on their Instagram stories and I thought why not do one on my blog. So here it goes. Last year was one of the craziest years of my life. There were a lot of ups and downs but it was a memorable year. So many things happened and the year past by so quickly that everything seems to be a blur.…

The Beauty of Nature in a Small Island

As some of you may know that I hike every once a week (if the weather is good) with my father. It’s probably been like 2 years now since I’ve sadly stopped Floorball and started hiking again on almost every Sunday. I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned this before in my first post but I’ve been hiking since I was about 4 years old so I actually do love hiking a lot. We don’t usually hike on the common…

A Must To Visit: The Habitat

On October 13th, my mom took a day off from work to check out a new place for her company (long and boring adult stuff that I don’t really need to explain on my blog. Ask her if you need more information). Anyway, there this new place that’s been opened for a few months now on Penang Hill and it’s called Habitat.  I did visit the place back when it was still under constructions (because my father…
