10 Quirky Things About Me

I haven't been writing recently but that is about to change, I promise! My life was all over the place trying to cope with the new changes and demands recently but it is starting to fall into place. So I thought why not make it a little interesting with some quick info about me here. Ok, disclaimer, my life isn't as fantastic as most social media people but oh well, they are still quirks or facts about me, whether you like it or not, haha.

 Here you go, 10 things about me list.

 1. I am into the the Shadowhunters series. They are human-angel  hybrids bent on killing the demons while being loggerheads with people not of their kind, mainly the downworlders like vampires and warlocks. The time I got the books from the young adult fiction section, I felt like a hundred pair of eyes were looking at this old lady browsing through the section to find the book. If you read the books, yes I'm a Malec fan. 

 I also follow the tv series currently showing in America, and they're both a league of their own although since it's based on the books, they do take some critical elements that make fans go crazy. I am also a fan of Magnus (one half of the Malec) not because he is in a relationship with a male Shadowhunter, but he's such an endearing and colourful character having lived through the centuries and being involved in many adventures and misadventures, despite having a dark background where his father is a Greater Demon and Prince of Hell. 
2. I like to watch make up youtube and despite watching many makeup tutorials, mine always look like some kid applied make up on my face. But despite my non talent in this, somehow I will always spare a bit of time on make up before work, so that I look made up. Never mind two hours later, I will look like a mess again.

3. The only places I shop for things is at Papermarket and Made with Love. They are both craft stores with their own specialties despite selling mainly the same things, imported from overseas. Honestly, they're not cheap but I try to keep it lean. I use their supplies to make my crafts which I then sell so I kinda recuperate back some money as well. This lead me to the next thing.

4. I run two online shops selling handmade papercrafts and as much as I know makeup stuffs, I also know what's new in the papercrafting world as well, but for both, I only follow what interests me.

5. I dislike spending money on food coz they can be so ex if you add it all up but now that I am working at a place where the people mostly buy food for lunch, I cannot be a hermit. But I also have to keep it lean. I try not to spend beyond $2.50 on some days. Speaking of food..

6. I like western, korean and japanese food (but no sashimi or tuna belly for me, please..let's keep it real but not so real). I know I am Malay and Malay food can be delish as well but they can be pretty unhealthy. 

7. Guys who look like geeks with their specs but have sculpted biceps, is a physical attraction for me. Don't ask me why. Currently there's one such guy at gym and I cannot. I really cannot. But I'm not one who like every single person like that. I like those with a quiet demeanour and not like showy off types. 

8. I suck at conversation with guys. I know most girls talk to guys like they're such good friends. Mild flirting is sometimes included, which I could tell when they converse. So there is no way you will see me talking to that guy or whichever guys at the gym every Sunday. Or anywhere else for that matter.

9. I wake up almost two hours or even 3 hours earlier every weekday before work to make customised orders. I do sometimes wish I could sleep longer but time passes by quite quickly actually. I know that life begins when at the break of dawn, I can hear people taking the bus and tapping their ez link cards.

10. As much as I love cats, I cannot go beyond touching their fur, gently of course, after one time a siao or crazy cat grabbed my wrist with extended claws leaving deep scars. I love those fat rotund ones though. As long as they don't scratch.

I know it's quite boring but I tried to make it a little interesting as well, haha. Thanks for reading..and surviving through!

One Step at A Time

Hello there It has been a while, right? I used to treat this blog as a place for me to rant, talk about nonsensical things and interests that, when I think back about it, were pretty cringeworthy. But it was part of the process of me growing up and navigating through my life which is full of ups and downs, just like the tidal waves. I still need a form of outlet to write out my thoughts and I have been journaling for the last few years. At first, I was still writing nonsense, or simply writing about how my day went, but I try to make it a more conscious journalling where I will write about things that I can take lessons from or to reflect on. So how has life been for me? Well, I no longer am running an online shop where I used to do customised cards and then just specializing in box cards. I do want to have an online business, preferably one I don't have to travel to meet people.  If you read my last post about being zen, I think I have 'tripled' the amount of zen inside of...

Listen to Me

It kinda irks me when I am trying to express an opinion or sharing a piece of knowledge but it's met with strong objection or Im being cut half way before I even finished. I mean...come on...does it hurt to actually listen first, doesnt matter if u agree or not? Yes I know everyone is entitled to their own opinions but it's frustrating because I feel like a sore loser. That sort of conversation is actually begging to be turned into some huge argument if I am equally annoying and equally strong headed as well. But I dont want to do that especially if they are my friends. Then again, I am subjected to being called a wimp or somebody who cant stand up strong against what she believes in or her own opinions. That will sorta give the person a sense of pride for getting a landslide victory. At first I used to think that hey, maybe the person has a point and I am wrong. But come to think of it, that's bull! It's one thing not to argue and another thing to let ur own opinions b...

Ray of Light

The act of falling in love. Very subjective and it also depends on the object you desire. Well, if it is the 'whoa mama!' sort of hunk or good looker, then yours truly has fallen in love many times over and over again. But a guy who has stolen my heart for good..well...that has yet to happen. But let's not talk about my non existent love life. Let's just ponder over the act of falling in love. From what I have observed through several tv shows or even movies, I gather that well..not everyone is so lucky to have fallen in love at first sight. It takes time, and maybe it will even take boyfriend after boyfriend or girlfriend after girlfriend before reality smacks your face and you end up with your very first boyfriend (gasp!). What a truly merry go round. Hey, it happens. Because we make mistakes and we are too blind to notice how someone can truly bring you happiness by their sheer volumes of care and concern for you. In the midst of crisis, a ray of light shines through...
