This post is for my parents. My parents didn't get the opportunity to have a proper education. They didn't finish their high school due to my grandparents' financial, back then. My mom was married to my father when she was only 16 years old; and my father was 20. When she told me this story, I could tell from her face how devastated she was for not being able to finish school. She would tell me that if she had another chance - she would at least finish her high school. She just wanted to feel like she accomplish something in life. Mother, you have me. I, on the other hand, get everything I want in life. Everyday, my parents will remind me to study hard and never give up. Always remind me of how proud they are, although during SPM time I failed my maths - still, they never said they were disappointed or anything. But, deep down, I knew they were expecting the best from me - but I gave them worst of the worst. God knows how hard my studies life is. I am not smart. I w...

I always have that one song to listen to before I start doing anything, especially when it requires me to type an essay or anything. I have not been blogging for quite some time due to some circumstances such as never-ending-assignments, part time jobs which I had recently quit, being an aunt to 3 rascal children (still I can't quit this job), a daughter's duty I have to fulfill and doing amazing girlfriend's duty to my boyfriend. Truth is, I was too caught up with life. I had so many things to settle before this year ends. Speaking of 2017, I honestly don't know what to feel about this year. I remember went through hell and downs some time this year. I also remember that I managed to overcome it, whatever it is, I am thankful. While I was away from the internet world, it made me realize of something. Doubt . I always doubt myself in whatever I am doing. Can I finish this nasi lemak? I doubt. Can I wake up at 6AM tomorrow? I doubt so. Am I able to put an eyeli...

Yes, that was my first reaction too. Like, can we put coal on our skin? Are YOU sure? Boy, was I wrong. If you know me very well, you know that I am very skeptical about skin care products - whatever that is related to skin. I am prone to acne and I have a very oily skin, that is why I don't /never ever/ dare to change my facial wash, and everyone knows that I have been using Tea Tree Facial Wash from Body Shop since high school. But, at one point, it has stop working on my skin that I have to change my skin care products..  Before I start, and before you give me that "Ha, you get paid for doing this right?" or "You just use it for days" let me get things very clear.. I have promised myself to experiment this product on my skin FIRST before recommending this to anyone.. If a product isn't suitable for my skin, I'll get the instant result. If I use it today, I'll get breakouts the next day, that's how fast my skin reacts to certain products.. ...
