Merdeka!

Happy Merdeka to All Malaysians! 

Yeap, yet another year..Malaysia celebrates her independence. (: 

I miss all the countdowns and parades. Sigh..why wasn't I interested in these things when I was younger? When I was still at home. Gahhh

Oh well, in a few years time I'll be back! Celebrating Merdeka!

I must say, I'm proud to be a Malaysian! 

I get pretty annoyed with individuals who constantly criticise the country. Commenting about the education system...the "rude" Malaysians, etc. C'mon every country has its flaws. There's no such thing as the perfect country. Yes, the education system may be a lil screwed up at the moment. But people, didn't you get your early education there??? Where did you learn your ABCs and 123s and basic algebra? So it's not as bad. 

And btw, not ALL Malaysians are rude helloooo...perhaps it was just unfortunate that you bumped into a few nasty ones. Generally, most of them are nice (: *ahem* haha

What I love about my country:

1. Great food (Anytime, Any where, Any cuisine)

2. Great weather (some may bag to differ..haha)

3. Great shopping (cheap or cheaper...depends on what you want)

Writing this makes me miss home a whole lot more :( I miss my family, the boyfriend, and friends. The familiarity of everything. 

Hope everyone back home is having a blast! Have a great holiday (even though it's just for a day). 

AND...Don't take Independence for granted. (:

We're all very blessed!

Once again, Selamat Merdeka!

Tummy Upset

:'(

What can I do to make my tummy less upset?

Drink green tea?

Does that help???

Arghh...Hate the feeling of not feeling too well :(

Saturday!

Uni has been my second home this week! I've been there nearly everyday.. Hmm...I'm starting to think I Can actually do some work there. But only cos I was in the Main Library. I don't actually know how people can do assignments, let alone study at the Law Library. So friggin noisy. I think people there just sit down to talk. And the most annoying part is...they're conversing so LOUDLY in Mandarin. I'm like "Hello there...You do realise it's a library right?"

Sigh...People these days.

Since my bus stops at Lower Campus, I had to walk all the way up to Upper Campus this morning. Gawdddd, the stairs!!! Never-ending I tell you. NEVER ENDING! And poor me was carrying my laptop. 

Engineering students out there, time to be innovative and build some escalators please.. (: hehe

I think it was a productive day. Managed to get most of the assignment done. Just a bit of explanations to write out..some editing...printing...and DONE!

Even managed to squeeze in some Finance work. IRR, NPV, MIRR and whatnots...Head spinning!

Andddd there's also some time in between for this...

Hahaha

Anyway, I think I'm in the mood to clear off some work now!

Information Overload

I've been preparing for mid-sems and tests these past few days. Feeding my brains with so much info. I feel like my brain is gonna pop now!

Tomorrow is the start of my mid-sem marathon. Wednesday, Thursday, Friday. One subject for each day. Oh what joy! 

God, please give me strength. 

I just gave my-wardrobe.com a 5 minute browse. Really...5 minutes! No mood for all these at the moment. Great improvement huh? :P LoL 

Actually 'cos I'm keeping a close eye on my bank balance. I don't wanna be eating grass at the end of the month. haha

Just random info, don't buy UGG boots anywhere else other than Aussie land (for those who are interested). I saw UGGs being sold on my-wardrobe.com for 150 pounds! Gawd, that's like double of what I paid! Tsk tsk!

Kk, books and notes are calling out my name.

Byebye.

Of Headbands!

This would be as quick as I can type. I shall go back to studying soon (mid-sems are full on this week).

So I've been going a lil crazy and out of hand these past few weeks. Surfing the internet has done me more harm than good. You see, when I go online I go on sites like Topshop, Debenhams, Asos, UrbanOutfitters, My Wardrobe etc. Not on UNSW Blackboard. HAHA

The more I look the more tempted I get. Sigh.

And I've also having a craze for headbands suddenly. I have no idea why.

So I've always been going on Sereni&Shentel. 

I made my brother buy 2 S&S headbands for me last month. When they had a 25% discount last weekend, I begged the brother to buy it. Again. :P

He said "NO!" 

I said "Pleaseeeeeee"

"NO"

Sigh.

And then he gave me a lecture. Woahhh..Look who's talking? HAHAHA

I wanted to do this to him (look at picture)...but I didn't out of respect. hehe

So instead, I went into my room and took a picture. :P

Headband: Blair in Bluebird

So anyway, I was a bit upset after that. Started ranting to the boyfriend. 

He managed to knock some sense into my brains. Thank God. haha (:

See, so now when I wanna get something online I always remind myself to take a step back. The boyfriend says "Think about it 16 times".

I think he said 16. Can't remember..But the point is...think many many times! hahaha

Oh and he asked me "why don't you make your own headbands?"

When I'm free la I try. hehe

Anyway, here are my other favourites..

Mini Ice Ice

Vara headband. (Not mine)

Mine's purple. Nicer right? hehe :P

kk. really gotta go now!

From Uni...

Hello there...

Reporting live to you from the main library of UNSW.

hahaha

I find it so sad that I'm stuck here in uni on my off day. blehhh

All for the sake of my Quantitative Analysis group assignment. Sigh.

I've been stuck here for four hours and we're not even half way through. God, please help us!

Kk...I better go now! Or else my group members will think I'm a slacker. LoL

Byebye.

Btw, I'm loving my french manicure (: heehee

Hello There!

I'm trying to upload pics I promised my friends, on facebook but it's being such a pain at the moment. How can it suddenly hang??? -.-

Maybe I should do it later again. Sigh. 

News! I went to work yesterday. haha. I was at a telemarketing firm for those of you who do not know. Mental and emotional stress I tell you. Some clients are just so rude! Thank God I don't see their faces!!! If not my hands will definitely go flying across their faces! >(

Actually I'm just writing this post to rant about how bad Sydney can be. haha..So backwards nowadays. Even KL is more maju. There's gonna be a new mall up right in the middle of Sydney City. Apparently Banana Republic, Gap and Zara are coming in. A 3-story Zara. (: But...Only now you wanna bring in these shops ah?? How long already we had it back home?? And knowing how they rip Sydneysiders off, I bet Zara will be much more expensive. -.-

Oh..I just found out that Debenhams, Malaysia has Butterfly by Matthew Williamson! :D But only at their Lot 10 flagship store! I'm so going there! hehe

Matthew Williamson dresses Blair Waldorf and Serena in Gossip Girl, if you didn't know. :P

 I'm going gaga over these 2 tops now. But self-control....I tell myself..Self-control.

I should just stop surfing the net now. I'm walking on dangerous ground. haha

Life Line

I've been meaning to update my blog on Monday. I seriously had no time. Was rushing to finish off my tutorial work since I didn't do much during the weekend :S yikes! And I also had 2 tutorial tests this week. Quantitative Analysis and Finance together, one day after the other is defo not fun!

But I'm glad I survived! (: 

I want to write about my afternoon tea experience at the QVB Tea Room. Will do it soon, 'cos I think that will take some time. Don't have much time to spare now. This will be quick! :P

Oh..coming back to my "topic" for the day...

For some, their credit card(s) (to be more specific...their daddy's credit card) is their life line. haha.. I'm sure it is. Especially for people who have some "trouble" budgeting. *shifty eyes* 

But I would say...my life line is my Blackberry. haha

I actually just realised that. I was rushing out today...Nearly forgot my BB. Just before I stepped out of the house, I went "Oh shucks! My BB!!!"

And the brother went "Hurry up la. Go get it. I know you'll die without it!"

hahaha

But seriously...I think I will.

I don't have days whereby my phone doesn't ring. *such a busy business woman* hahaha..No la just kidding. My cousin would call at times to bitch about her boss. And sometimes friends would call to give me gossip updates. LoL

I can't live without my phone 'cos there's BBM! :D Actually the person I BBM the most is the boyfriend (: 

Oh...and now there's twitter. The best friend got me into it -.- *stares at Shien*

My BB shall sleep beside me tonight! hehe Hopefully I don't crush it while sleeping.

Oh and 1 more thing! Monday (16th August) is National Cupcake Day! I'm excited!!! :D

OK! Gotta run now! Macroeconomics is waiting for me!

xX

Yumm!

I decided to bake cupcakes after dinner today! haha

It was 'cos I couldn't find anything else I wanted to eat. I needed something sweet! hehe. So I made use of some new baking utensils my mom brought the last time 'round. 

And this is what I came up with... 

...

...

...

...

...

...

12 only -.- Edisi terhad (Limited edition) haha

Half way preparing, I felt lazy to make the buttercream icing. I saw the recipe and it said "150g of butter". Gosh..that's too much fat! It suddenly occurred to me, after all these time. haha

So I decided to sprinkle hundreds and thousands on the cupcakes instead, before placing them into the oven. 

My cupcakes kembang-ed so much I was afraid it wouldn't turn out nice. 

But it came out pretty and very yummy indeed. :D

Hmm...I need more gym! 

And long breaks in between tutorials and lectures don't help 'cos I end up doing this...(in the library) haha

NOT. Good

Kena caught!

I've got plans for high tea tomorrow! I'm so excited to visit the Tea Room. haha

*yawns* Goodnight y'all!

Flemington!

Oh goodness my forsaken blog! I really don't have time to update on a daily basis. I'll only do so when I have some spare time on my hands now. I checked my schedule 5 minutes ago and I have tests and assignments calling out to me starting next week. Life ain't gonna be any easier now, but I can do it! haha..I can do with some positive energy now. :P

Getting back to my topic on Flemington. I paid a visit to Flemington Market last weekend. Definitely a place to get fresh flowers, fruits and vegetables. I'm not a person who usually shops for these kindda stuff, but I thought it would be an experience if I tagged along to Flemington. 

If I'm not mistaken, it's only open during the weekends. Very early in the morning. People usually make their way there at 5-ish 6 in the morning. But sorrehh, Ms Tiffany here won't sacrifice her sleep for fruits and veges -.- 

I got there at 11 am, 2 hours before it was to close. haha. But it wasn't a bad thing. 'Cos fruits were going on sale! 5 bucks for a box of apples! O.O Now you feel ripped off shopping at the supermarket right? haha. I bought a box of apples. strawberries and avocados. Now you know why I've been bringing apples to uni recently. haha

Oh I forgot to mention. The place is superrrr packed. No joke! But probably cos I just can't stand shopping or standing around overly crowded places. 

I'll just post up some pictures I snapped that day. Holding up my camera going click click click. The vendors were looking at me with expressions like "HAHAHA..Tourist much?" But yea...I was kindda a tourist there. My first time there la.

Mass market for apples

Avocados. yummm

Yellow melon. apa tu? haha

Huge ass watermelons

I like the colour here!

Cherries! I like

Celery. I don't like

These are called banana chillis!

Poor kid had to tag along. haha

On a totally different note, the boyfriend is leaving for Phuket tomorrow. This.Is.So.Unfair! :( Oh well, have fun there baby! (:

I'm looking forward to the weekend...That's if plans for high tea is still on. haha

Have a great day!
