I must stop procrastinating! December 5, 2009

Filed under: Family, event, pictures — Eyra @ 15:22

Like, seriously. My retail therapy – KK Shopping Trip – has been awesome. Will blog about that soon. I haven’t got pictures from Raya Aidil Adha Celebration from Iqah, so, I’ll blog as soon as I got the pictures.

Iqah stayed over last Friday. We watched New Moon together. It’s more thrilling than Twilight but the ending was … so-so. “Marry me?” … the end.

Here’s some of the pictures from my brother-in-law’s brother’s Majlis Berambil-ambilan at Rizqun, on the same day as my graduation day.

Colour my life up! December 3, 2009

I decided to… procrastinate and write posts on the 2 super delayed post. To make you happy, I will leave you with this.

 

Good bye, highschool! Hello, new life! December 2, 2009

Filed under: bimbo moments, daily life, event, pictures, school — Eyra @ 12:00

22nd of November, placed at ICC Berakas was our graduation day. It was the day when a lot of tears fell down, everyone hugging each other, took pictures with each other, enjoying our very own “last moment”. I am sad, in deed, that I didn’t stay until the end of the ceremony as I have function about 1 hour 30 minutes after I went home.

Looking at our graduation pictures made me sad and cry every time I see all of it, not knowing when we’re going to see each other again. I don’t have much pictures with me though, but pictures are available on almost everyone’s facebook.

Pictures talk more than what I can do.

Aww :( This is annoying, I feel like crying. I made a song for this though heheheh :)

And oh, Copyrighted.

 

“It’s time to say good bye,

It’s time to be away,

Remember to stay awake,

Remember that we were together.

 

Dear friends,

I’m gonna miss you, you, you,

We’re gonna face the new life, life, life,

We’re gonna learn new things, things, things

But remember,

That we’ll still be by each other.

 

Don’t let my tears start to make you cry,
Each time I try to say my goodbye,
Try to stop asking why, why, why

And remember, I love you guys!”

 

And this song made me cry:

Love,

Travel Log and the King of Fruit December 1, 2009

Filed under: bimbo moments, love, pictures, thoughts, video — Eyra @ 00:00

Clothes, emergency kit (in this case, travel kit), passport are ready. Except for toiletries. Few more hours until our flight. Pretty much excited. Most probably no update from twitter or facebook. Scheduled post will keep on coming, so keep checking out this site.

…and so, another last bite of durian, I am ready to blog again.

Talking of durian reminds me of a school mate of mine (whom I knew through my online business). He doesn’t like durian because according to him, it makes him feel nauseatic. He became even more nauseatic when I told him there’s different type of Durian – Monthong (?), Durian Kuning, Durian Putih, Durian Pulu and the list goes on.

Durian is very famous in South East Asia. It has a very strong smell that you can even smell it even when the husk is in tact. You are lucky if you get to eat the fleshiest durian.

The flesh can be consumed at various stages of ripeness, and it is used to flavour a wide variety of savoury and sweet edibles in Southeast Asian cuisines. The seeds can also be eaten when cooked. I’ve never tried the flesh though (except for Tibadak’s and Tarap’s)

According to WikiPedia, there are 30 recognised Durio species, at least nine of which produce edible fruit.

For more info about the King of Fruit, click here.

I found this video which is rather annoying. I mean, how can you compare durian’s smell with stale vomit, rotten eggs and shoes with dog poo on them?

This post isn’t complete with out any picture of durian her.. but I couldn’t find any from my collection. So, the picture of the tree is good enough, right? It’s in Labi.

p/s We’ll see if I’ll be bothered to post another 2 more post. Other wise, please kindly wait till I come back from KK.

Love,

I’ve been spending my time wasting my time. Get me?

PCK has been accompanying me. I will start Vampire Knight “Guilty” soon. New Moon, will be watching it with my beloved cousin laterrr! Yes! I did it! I grabbed two seats. Just lucky. I need to blog about my graduation (and about how sad I am for having no chance to hug them as I have to leave earlier than them) and the function I attended after my graduation. Please give me some time. I will schedule the posts for my “absence” from the 1st to 4th.

I will be going back to Telisai this Saturday. So, I have no time at all (I do, but.. :) )

Please, keep checking out this page for updates. Okay?

Love,

 

Labi Trip November 23, 2009

Filed under: Family, daily life, event, past, pictures — Eyra @ 16:11

(flash back to a week ago)

Fruit hunting. Now at Jerudong, heading to Labi. 6:14 AM Nov 15th from mobile web

My sister, her boyfriend and I started our “journey” at around 6:00 am. Had maggie goreng for breakfast and a cup of water.

 

Oh,

T.Koh’s car is infront of ours hahaha 6:37 AM Nov 15th from mobile web

Yes. I saw his car at the highway.

Kg. Bukit Udal. 6:38 AM Nov 15th from mobile web

We then stopped by at Iqah’s for a light breakfast and fetch Uchoh there. Talked for a while with Iqah, and off we go.

At 7:23 a.m we were already at Sungai Liang area (est. 41 km to Labi). At 7:31am, we were already at Bukit Sawat (translation : Bukit Atas) and 5 minutes later we were at Kg Sungai Mau. We arrived at Mukim Labi at 7:47 am.

We dropped by somewhere near the Dewan Serbaguna at Sungai Mau if I am not mistaken (I forgot to tweet it) and at Kg Melayan (7:55 am) to buy some durian and Mata Kucing.

It was supposed to be fun but I blame the mosquitoes and ants (thousands of them!) for disturbing me!

I hate insects. I hate insects. I hate insects.

Through the ups and downs November 21, 2009

Filed under: blog, books, daily life, lovetoshop, video, wishlist — Eyra @ 14:20

Hello. I’ve been “offline” from blogging for almost a week now. I’ve been busy with graduation rehearsal (yes, it’s tomorrow!) and Lovetoshop. I have also finished reading Twenties Girl by Sophie Kinsella. Awesome book, I tell you. :)

I will update soon, and post up some scheduled post. I’ll be making my self busy by going out with Iqah (she finished her A Level, like, finally!) and”window shopping” at KK as I don’t have money now, I do, but I don’t want to spend them so I could save more for my… soon to be Canon Powershot E1! So, basically, I’ll bring my business money to buy stuffs for Lovetoshop! Yes, I must make more money. On a side note, I am very excited for my shopping trip in KL!!! So, I must buy camera by the second week of January. Dear HuaHo, please give discount on the camera ah?

I have two posts to be posted (yes, My Fruit Hunting Trip!!!]

Another boring day November 13, 2009

Filed under: Friends, bimbo moments, daily life — Eyra @ 23:58

I’ve been spending my time reading Sophie Kinsella’s Twenties Girl, organizing my room, arranging my mini-library (not really a library, it’s just a cupboard fuuullll of novels and comics), watching P.Ramlee’s movies on YouTube, reading (or rather stalking) people’s blog (don’t call me a stalker, because you’re a stalker too… apakan?) and blabla.Graduation will be on the 22nd I think.

I want to go to KK, and oh, I can’t wait for January because I’ll be going to KL (21st to 28th) visiting my sister and shoppping for my self and Lovetoshop, not to forget, for my beloved sayangs and bebehs – you know who you are girls!

I haven’t arrange any dates for my sayangs yet. I need to confirm my date with beloved anak Jee, pretty Fify and super awesome Timah. I also need to get out with my Jubur mate Iqah. Other than that, I need to go out with my Kaka sayang Hikmah. What else?

More on personal life.

I’ve been a total idiot these days. Organizing my room is like reminiscing the past. I found old stuffs in my drawers, cupboards, books. Old those poklen and emo things, those stupid bad dreams. At least my room is almost clean now. I only have one more day until my room will totally be cleaned. I gave my self 3 days for all these – with some break for food and drink.

I shall reward my self with a new cupboard or drawers, or perhaps a place to hang my towels and stuffs since my hanger is now broken.

I shall go back reading people’s blog now… such a stalker Mi! :)

Love,

Read and learn November 13, 2009

Filed under: Sophie Kinsella, books, love — Eyra @ 00:00

Who doesn’t love reading? Everyone loves reading! Okay, maybe not everyone, but I am sure most of us love reading. This post is dedicated to all book readers, everything about what I think of my books.

 

I have this idea of making “book reviews” on all my novels and my sisters’ novels when I was re-arranging my novels. So, enjoy reading!

 

I would like to start with, Sophie Kinsella’s books (some of the books are yet to be found!) and not in order, just so you know.

 

1. Shopaholic & BabyPicture0231 This is the time when Becky Brandon (nee Bloomwood) got pregnant. This book would be one of my all-time favourite! It’s just funny to read about her life being pregnant, shopping for all those branded baby items, clothes, baby strollers. There’s also some “conflict”. She went to the celebrity, must-have obstetrician who happens to be Luke’s – her husband – glamorous, intellectual ex-girlfriend. There’s also part when she went house-hunting with Luke, when they were interviewed by this magazine about them living in the house (when they hadn’t even bought the house!). Oh about the shirt! The Red-haired girl. MUST READ! I won’t tell you everything here! :)

Becky’s life is blooming! She’s working at London’s newest fashion store The Look, house-hunting with husband Luke (her secret wish is a Shoe Room) … and she’s pregnant! She couldn’t be more overjoyed – especially since discovering that shopping cures morning sickness. Everything has got to be perfect for her baby: from the designer nursery, to the latest, coolest pram, to the celebrity, must-have obstetrician.

But when the celebrity obstetrician turns out to be Luke’s glamorous, intellectual ex-girlfriend, Becky’s perfect world starts to crumble. She’s shopping for two…but are there three in her marriage?

 

2. Shopaholic & SisterPicture0232

This book, I would say, funny but.. stressful? It’s worth to be read too.

There’s too much troubles here, I suppose. She becomes on a strict budget, she doesn’t have a job, her best friend Suze has a new best friend. Not until she knew that she has a long-lost sister. She’s so excited that she thought of going shopping together, do everything together. Until she meets her sister, she became totally shock. Her sister hates shopping, always recycle things, buy some cheap things on a cheap store. It’s funny, seriously, except when you read the part about her sister, which is just… stressful. You can’t stop reading this because you’ll be so eager to read what will happen next, blablabla. I wouldn’t tell much. Must read yourself! :D

Becky thought being married to Luke Brandon would be one big Tiffany box of happiness. But to be honest, it’s not quite as dreamy as she’d hope.

The trouble started on honeymoon, when she told Luke the tiniest little fib, about the teeniest little purchase. Now she’s on a strict budget, she doesn’t have a job – and worst of all her beloved Suze has a new best friend. Then she receives some incredible news. She has a long-lost sister!

Becky has never been more excited. Finally, a real sister! They’ll have so much in common! They can go shopping together… choose shoes together… have manicures together..

Until she meet’s her – and gets the shock of her life. It can’t be true. Surely Becky Bloomwood’s long-lost sister can’t… hate shopping?

3. The Secret Dreamworld of a Shopaholic

Picture0233 I don’t quite remember much of this book. It’s about her being a financial journalist….. I’ll re-read this book! Hhaha. I think this was the book that they made into movie (Confession of a Shopaholic) because I saw something about the green scarf (?) inside.

She’s a journalist. She spends her working life telling others how to manage their money. She spends her leisure time… shopping.

Retail therapy is the answer to all her problems. She knows she should stop, but she can’t. She tries cutting back, she tries making more money. But neither seems to work. The stories she concocts become more and more fantastic as she tries to untangle her increasingly dire financial difficulties. Her only comfort is to buy herself something – just a little something…

Can Becky ever escape from this dream world, find true love, and regain the use of her Switch card?

The Secret Dreamworld of a Shopaholic… the perfect pick me up for when it’s all hanging in the bank balance.

4. Can You Keep a Secret?

Picture0236 Not a shopaholic series.

This book is a total must-read book.

It started on the plane. She’s scared of flying. So gets so nervous that most of her secrets came out from her mouth to the man next to her who happens to be the company’s elusive CEO. There’s this time when he mentioned about it LIVE on TV and things happened. Okay, I’ll stop here. Go and buy this book! :D

Meet Emma Corrigan, a young woman with a huge heart, an irrepressible spirit, and a few little secrets:

Secrets from her boyfriend:

I’ve always thought Connor looks a bit like Ken. As in Barbie and Ken.

Secrets from her mother:

I lost my virginity in the spare bedroom with Danny Nussbaum while Mum and Dad were downstairs watching Ben-Hur.

Secrets she wouldn’t share with anyone in the world:

I have no idea what NATO stands for. Or even what it is.

Until she spills them all to a handsome stranger on a plane. At least, she thought he was a stranger…

Until Emma comes face-to-face with Jack Harper, the company’s elusive CEO, a man who knows every single humiliating detail about her…

5. The Undomestic Goddess

Picture0235 Another good read :)

Samantha is a high-powered lawyer in London. She works all hours, has no home life, and cares only about getting a partnership. She thrives on the pressure and adrenaline. Until one day… she makes a mistake. A mistake so huge, it’ll wreck her career.

She walks right out of the office, gets on the first train she sees, and finds herself in the middle of nowhere. Asking for directions at a big, beautiful house, she is mistaken for the interviewee housekeeper and finds herself being offered the job. They have no idea they’ve hired a Cambridge-educated lawyer with and IQ of 158 – Samantha has no idea how to work the oven.

Disaster ensues. It’s a chaos as Samantha battles with the washing machine… the ironing board… and attempts to cook a cordon bleu dinner. But gradually, she falls in love with her new life in a wholly unexpected way.

Will her employers ever discovered the truth? Will Samantha’s old life ever catch up with her? And if it does… will she want it back?

6. Remember Me?

Picture0234

It’s about a girl who lost her memories after an accident and woke up at the hospital as a brand, new person who she never knew who she is. I read this last year. 346 pages worth of reading. I found a smaller version of this in Best Eastern. This was bought by my first sister in UK.

Lexi wakes up in a hospital bed after a car accident, thinking it’s 2004 and she’s twenty-five-year-old with crooked teeth and a disastrous love life. But, to her disbelief, she learns it’s actually 2007 – she’s twenty-eight, her teeth are straight, she’s the boss of her department – and she’s married! To a good looking millionaire! How on earth did she land the dream life?!

She can’t believe her luck – especially when she sees her stunning new home. She’s sure she’ll have a fantastic marriage once she gets to know her husband again. He’s drawn up a “marriage manual”, which should help.

But as she learns more about her new self, chinks start to appear in the perfect life. All her old friends hate her. A rival is after her job. Then a disheveled, sexy guy turns up… and lands a new bombshell.

What the **** happened to her? Will she ever remember? And what will happen if she does?

7. Twenties Girl

Picture0266

I haven’t read this. Will prolly read ASAP. It sounds interesting.

Lara has always had an overactive imagination.

Now she wonders if she is losing her mind. Perfectly normal twenty-something girls just don’t get visited by ghosts! But inexplicably, the spirit of Lara’s Great Aunt Sadie – in the form of a bold demanding, Charleston-dancing girl – has appeared to make one last request: Lara must track down a missing necklace Sadie simply can’t resist without.

Lara’s got enough problems of her own. Her startup company is floundering, her best friend and business partner has run off to Goa, and she’s just been dumped by the love of her life.

But as Lara spends time with Sadie, life becomes more glamorous, and their treasure hunt turns into something intriguing and romantic. Could Sadie’s ghost be the answer to Lara’s problem – and can two girls from different times end up learning something special from each other?

 

Well, guys, I’ve got something to do now. I will continue this post tomorrow. So, you can rest your eyes a bit before continue reading these, alright? I still have 25 or more books to be reviewed!

 

Book lover,
