A Sophisticated Nail Polish Or just Plain Ol' Nail Buffing.

What up,

I'm back!! So I've been living my life, experienced some traumatic moments, had so many happy moments and so on. So today I'm gonna write something that has absolutely nothing to do with manicure. Oh that title? Just something aku buat as metafora (xtau g baca sastera form 4 balik).

I am going to talk about FRIENDSHIP. AHA, THAT'S RIGHT KIDS!

I am the type of person who does not have too many close friends. Why is that? Because I get too attached to people I am close with. Therefore I am always careful whenever I choose friends. I have seen so many types of people, banyak jenis perangai and I have discovered that for me, there are two types of friendship :

1) The Nail Polish Friendship.

What iz zat??

Basically it's the type of friendship that you formed pretty fast and the things you share are all shiny and well, basically superficial and polished. This type of friendship only last for so long as you don't have that much depth. Cause you just, ya know, applied the polish just like that. Over time, the polish is gonna chip whenever you stumble upon something sharp, or maybe you accidentally bit your nails. You may also get bored with the same color and then you can just suddenly decide to apply some remover and get a new color. Besides, the superficial smell of the polish is so strong that I hate it. Ya know what I'm saying. Nail polish can give your nail some pretty awesome colors but it's gonna get ruined unless you are really2 careful. Being careful all the time is pretty tiring aite? Same as your happy friends can make your life wonderful at times but when you encounter something bad, they're just gonna chip away. That's why I call em' polishers. Cause they're not gonna treat your nails, just there to make it pretty from far uhuh.


2) The Nail Buffing Friendship.



Okay what the heck is this?? "Nail buffing is the act of polishing the nail using buffers of successively finer grit in order to make nails look more consistent and shiny" (Wikipedia, 2014). So basically you just polish your nails to look shinier and healthier. Now buffer friends are your long term friends. They're gonna help you get out of your sh!t whenever needed, they love you just the way you are, might insult you here and there at times. You might get into fight at times but you will always be friends no matter what. Just like friendship, if you don't buff your nails now n then, they may look dull but you can always get in touch again with the buff to make it look shinier than ever. And it's au natural, no smell of superficiality, these buffs. Ain't that cool?

I have some nail polish and I have some buffers. But at the end of the day, my buffer is all that matters cause I can keep em' for long and I love something that's all natural. There are some people who buff their nails and apply nail polishers on their buffed nails. Well, if they are happy with that, then who am I to judge that aite? Just don't force me to wear the same style that's all :D~


Moral of the story? Eat more veggies. Then you would have such pretty nails you don't need no buffer or polish to keep em' pretty. 

Related moral of the story : Choose your friends wisely ;)


Peace out,

Bits of Truth in K-Dramaland.

What up!

Today I iz writing about a new drama I iz so sooo sooooooooooo in LOOOOVEEEEE...which is.......MY LOVE FROM THE STAR!!!!!


What's it about?? Okay, it started when an alien from other planet, the hero, landed on Earth 400 years ago. God knows why for some random reason he picked Korea and not Malaysia. Anyhoo, the hero since then had lived for 400 years on Earth, looking ageless and fineee as he is until he met a Hallyu star, the heroin, and both of them fell in love. The catch? Hero's gotta leave Earth within 3 months or else he dies. Sounds like a cheesy storyline right?

Okay, I've always loved K dramas (good looking heroes yg kite boleh usha 6packs time shower scene, hilarious illogical moments, pencarutan berjela2 etc..) but this one special drama has captured my heart which even replaces You're Beautiful which is my all time favorite stress releaser. Why is that??

A) The actor, Kim Soo Hyun (omo oppa, saranghaeyo \(^,^)/ ) is so dayymmm FINEEE (love the eyes, the abs, the cute face, okay everything physical bout him) and he sure can act. His character is so funny and he sure delivered the act well. His character is a quiet lonely person who hasn't got any friends since he is kinda cynical ( u tend to be like that once you lived to see the real world, I feel ya baby) and then he gradually warms up to the heroin.

B) The heroin, Gianna Jun, is also very very preetttyyyy and she also has commendable acting skills. I mean, I laughed like hell at her funny moments, and I freaking cried as well when she cried so emotionally. Damn girl, you got some skills. Her character is a girl who is not exactly selfless or nice at first glimpse, has a terrible temper, I-don't-care-what-you-think-of-me-I-live-by-my-rules attitude, and likes to curse (my friend, where u been?). But on the inside, she is actually very sensitive and very lonely. She is attracted to the hero since he helps her out so many times and she became a better person gradually.

C) I love the storyline, it's so funny on the comical relief moments, so heartbreaking during the emotional intense moments. It's light but not too light. It's got some useful jigs you can actually capture and think about.

What are they?

1) Being surrounded by people does not mean that you will not be lonely. And money does not guarantee a total happiness. It can only buy you things that make you feel better and improve your living cost. The rest is up to many other factors.

2) The drama teaches me that all the time in the world will feel meaningless to you if you only lived for the sake of living. When you learn to live in the moment, you will then learn to appreciate every precious moment you have. When you are with the person you love, you just appreciate every moments you have with him/her because any moment could be your last moment with them. When you are doing something you love, you will learn to appreciate it when you are living in the moment because you might not be able to do it anymore tomorrow or the next day or even the next hour.

 I learned that a happy ending is not what you will get in the future, I learned that another happy ending can also be defined by appreciating every moment that you have right now, whether it's with the loved ones or with the things that you loved. That's the real deal. Because we never know when we are going to die. 

Therefore, just live in the moment kayyy..... :)

Here are some pics for your eyes to feast on the drama. *drools*

This is the part where he pretended to be her legal advisor to shut her agency up. Me likeyyy the suit on them

He's got a fever and she's all about sponging him to health. Yeah right.

Ni yang buat aku rasa nk pijak kaca tanpa pakai kasut nih

He might disappear from her anytime but she's just living in their precious time together..huuu

A Red Velvet Baked to Perfection...or Not?

Hey Hoy Hai!!

HAMAIGAD it's been quite a while since I have been in here *tiup habuk2 sikit*. Hello my imaginary viewers, how y'all have been? I myself have been very busy n busy n busy..ya know, figuring out my life, carik link blog aku ni (aku lupa ok,boleh x?) balancing my hectic schedule n stuff..

Anyhoo, I am here again, and that's all that matters. So what should I babble about today?

Let's start with a story...

Once upon a time, there was a gal named Nabilah Jenab who was a bit lost in her life after graduating. She quit her job as she was not happy with it and she was jobless for 2 months before she could score herself to another new job. While she was jobless, she filled her time by stalking jobstreet and also HR emails, improved her piano/keyboard skills,and she took another hobby that she has always loved, which is, baking. 

Jenab loved baking and her mother loves to eat cakes. So she started to find recipes for cakes and she baked at least a piece of cake almost every weekend for her mother and also her sisters whenever they come home. She would do red velvet cakes, butter cakes, lemon cakes and also chocolate cakes. As Jenab baked her cakes weekend by weekend, she noticed that each of her family member has different comments when it comes to the cakes she baked.

Once, she baked a red velvet cake.

Her mother loved it, saying that it was the best red velvet cake she has ever tasted. Of course, her mother never had any red velvets before to compare it with but wutever, zee mother loved it. Then her sister ate the cake, saying that the cake might be better if it was sweeter. And then her friend ate it, saying that she loved it with the cream cheese while her other friend loved it plain and suggested that perhaps more flour would be better. So Jenab listened to all these comments and took it all in.

After that, Jenab baked again another red velvet. This time she improvised

Her mother loved it, but does not take it with extra cream cheese as she mentioned it was too sweet for her while her sister said the cake would be better if it was softer since Jenab put a bit more flour and many more people gave comments. Again, Jenab took it all in.

And she got confused.

You see, Jenab was actually striving to bake a perfect cake with no flaws. But even as she baked again and again, she could not get everyone to comment that her cake was perfect. Since Jenab is a bit lampi, after a few baking experience, only then she realized something ; that the first cake she had baked was actually the tastiest she had. It suited her and she loved it and she even finished the damned cake.

So she baked again according to the recipe of the first cake. Again, people commented on it and she took it all in. Except this time she didn't try to strive for perfection because the first cake recipe is already perfect for her and she could bake according to other's taste, but then again, why go for the mainstream? She is the one who's going to finish the cake and gain a few pounds for it so by the rule of the thumb, the cake must be tastiest for her.

So after the cake awakening lesson, each time she baked a cake, she would make sure that the cake is exactly according to her taste. Sometimes she might bake a cake slightly less sweet so that her mother can enjoy it too the fullest as well. She can tolerate it because she loves her mother and less sweet = less calorie therefore it's a good thing. But most of the time, she will bake according to her taste and eat it like nobody's business. 

After that she got a job and never baked again. Kidding, she bakes once in a while. -The end-

So what's with the cake?

You see, in life, we might sometimes lose ourselves and we tried to mold our ways to fit with everyone's opinion so that we would feel our life is perfect. It is human nature to feel accepted and stick with the status quo or else we would feel like we need to live as an outcast like Simba in The Lion King. Therefore you might forget that in trying to please everyone , it's you whom you need to please first because at the end of the day, people might love your cake, but you're the one who's gonna finish it so you gotta make sure that you loved the cake most or else you will feel trapped having to finish the cake. At times, we can sacrifice or tolerate a bit to fit with our loved ones and if it's for the better, why not? Just remember,me,myself and I needs to be happy first,only then will we be able to please others. Capiche?  

What works for others might not work for you. NEVER, EVER compare yourself to others. Once in a while is okay for calibration but don't get obsessed by it. DO WHAT SUITS YOU. CAUSE YOU'RE GONNA LIVE WITH IT TILL THE END. Besides, no need to stick to status quo so much. Simba did have fun with Timon and Pumba while in outcast and he did learn some valuable lessons right?

So,yeah, bake your own red velvet. Nyums~

I'm done rambling. Gotta sleep. Work again @.@


Love,
