When Rara Speak Rawr

Roti & Bread.

2012-01-28T20:39:00.000+08:00

Well Hello. *wave*

Decide to write something here about my ..... diet journey. BORING!! Yeah I know. I also getting bored with myself talking about diet here.

But guess what? I have my diet partner now. We do share some tips, advise even motivate each other. Last week he told me he gonna start his 2 weeks diet with bread. Yes, only bread. Replace anything with bread.

If you let say you eat chicken curry with rice. Replace the rice with bread.

I already start it last week. Replace any of my meal with bread. Scramble eggs, omelette, sunny side up. What else? That's for my breakfast. For lunch sometimes I ate Subway Sandwich. Or any buns at nearest bakery.

But, yesterday .. yesterday. I lose to RICE. YES, RICE. Colleagues asked me to join for lunch. Guess what we had for lunch ? NAGI DAUN PISANG. Tell me how can I resist it? Eat the fried chicken without having the fish curry on top of the rice? Nooooooo. Since she wanna belanja me. Then I surrender.

Then today I had oats for breakfast and dinner. Suffer. Yucks. Seriously I cant eat the quaker oats shape control I bought last months. But if I want a good body with a good shape then I need to go through the pain first.

Diet roti? Of course tambah lagi seminggu as I told Momo I had 2 times tambah nasi. Hehehe.

P/S: I want nasi lemak kruk kruk. *perut bunyik*

How to Identify Your Strengths

2012-01-25T14:30:00.000+08:00

How often have you gotten a compliment on your creativity or your patience or your resilience, only to wave it off, assuming that these strengths must come easily to everyone? In my 30 years as a lifestyle/career coach and author, the mistake I see people make time and again is failing to recognize their talents. An honest inventory may be difficult—even impossible—for you to do yourself. So sit with a friend and try this exercise. It's a new twist on something I call the Self-Correcting Life Scenario, and it's one of my favorites.

1. Ask your friend to name three of your strengths (The words in the image above may provide some inspiration.)

2. Tell your friend your top passion. Then have your friend tell an imaginary story of your life, based on this passion and your strengths. For instance, "You're organized, creative, and friendly, and your passion is baking. So, you run a bakery where customers can buy cupcakes with little icing portraits of themselves."

3. Take a minute to imagine this fantasy as your real life. Tell your friend what appeals to you ("Making cupcakes with artistic frosting would be awesome!") and what makes you cringe ("I'd never start my own business—the thought of bookkeeping gives me hives").

NYE at Penang

2012-01-11T10:00:00.000+08:00

Luna, Zhaf, Syed, Hariz, Zul, Waie, Amir, Liy, Khir & Rara

Not in the photo :

Aina, Rahman, Hasbi & Ili.

Tahun ni celebrate NYE kat Ipoh & Penang. Unusual plan sebenarnya. Lebih kepada adhoc. Sebab all of my friends semuanya follow, kenapa tak I and Momo pun follow sekali kan? So, friday after work, after tahlil dan kenduri kesyukuran, weolls gerak. Nasib Hasbi pun join sekali.

Gerak from PJ around 10.30pm. Sampai Ipoh after 2 and half hour. Salam salam peluk cium dengan diorang yang dah gerak satu hari lebih awal, terus supper kat Nasi Vanggey. Bayangkan 2.30am makan nasi vanggey dan cheese nan ayam tandori. Boleh tak bayangkan?

Overall, bolehlah kalau nak isi perut. Kari dia pedas sangat. Ayam tandori terlalu banyak spices, terlalu berperisa. Yang lain lain bolehlah. Lepas habis supper, tidor dengan kekenyangannya.

Esok pagi, PENANG!!

Yang bangun pagi-pagi.

Helo Penang!

Helo Kapitan People!

Helo Claypot Lamb Briyani!!

Sampai je terus serbu Kapitan. And 2 - 3 kali pergi Penang pun, ni first time makan kat Kapitan. Sedap sangat sangat. Da lah tak breakfast pulak tu.

Lepas makan, next stop was Chowrasta. Lepak minum kat Ais Tingkap Taufiq. Panas pulak haritu, so tak lepak lama. Habis je minum, Gurney Plaza & Paragon Mall.

Lepak kat Paragon Mall, angin laut best gilaaaa. But tak sempat nak took any pictures. So lepas lepak kat Paragon Mall, we went to tepi laut and took few pictures yang awesome plus this video. Kena tengok kat FB lah nampak gayanya since taleh nak upload sini. Haih.

Dinner time. Ni je sempat tangkap yang lain dah selamat masuk perut.

Malam tu I makan :

Fried Oysters
Char Kuey Teow
King Burger
Sotong Kangkung
Ikan Pari Bakar
Assam Laksa
Otak-otak
Sushi

Banyak taakkkkk ? Yang tak makan, Pasembur. Sebab boringggg. Hihihi.

So lepas dah kenyang, last stop was Batu Feringgi. Paling best celebrate NYE tepi pantai dengan Momo, Zhaf & Una dan Waie & Zul. Best gila main dengan ombak. Ombak rindu kah? LOL.

And I balik KL dengan Momo pagi Ahad tu jugak sebab kerja! Workaholic macam I ni memang payah sikit nak tinggalkan kerja. Dapat double pay, sapa taknak kan kan? :)

Okay, tu je cerita NYE I. Korang?

M. I. R. A. C. L. E.

Its miracle when someone from past still remember you and still waiting for that moment.

2011-12-08T23:00:00.000+08:00

Masa korang tengah baca entry ni, rasanya I dah ada kat Tune Hotel, LCCT. Esok flight pukul 7.50am. Malas nak bangun awal pagi, so tidurlah sini semalam.

Flight AK1370 KUL - PDG

Momo will send me, mommy and Belle. I am excited. Yeay. See you guys after 5 days.

Rara eats : Popilla @ IPC

2011-12-08T16:30:00.000+08:00

One fine day, momo and me walked around IPC, then we stopped at Popilla. I always like to try new foods in town. So, we took one set of popilla. Forget what set that we took.

Nice foods to eat for tea time I guess. If you super hungry, don't go for this. Head on to other place to eat okay?

Sorry, lack of information as this was last year one's. Hihihi. :D

Rara eats: Mohd Chan Abdullah

2011-12-07T13:00:00.000+08:00

Hmm. Sorry to say, lagi prefer makan kat tempat lain. Rasa takde, rupa kurang, semua tak kena. Maybe sebab dah terlalu banyak branch, diorang dah tak jaga rasa authentic makanan mereka. So, this one the first and last makan kat sini.

Gonna ask dad to cook this dish next weekend-lah. Oh, nowadays dah tak ramai yang pergi Sungai, as in the price increase to 100%. So, I pun dah tak lunch lansung dah kat situ. Maybe after this boleh carik kedai makan yang jual ikan darat.

Dietlah Sangat

2011-11-23T14:53:00.001+08:00

Terlalu banyak post pasal diet kan? Diet journeylah, diet tracklah, tapi most of entry post were on foods. Haha. Sewel right?

And anyone yang baru baca this blog confirm akan tanya, "Blog you memang blog makan ek?" Err, nak jawab apa ek?

Most of my post memang pasal foods. Normally kalau rajin, like most recent post memang pasal foods je sebab I got few folders contains food pictures. Tapi sebab malas, memang banyak tertangguh actually.

Back to the topic. Pasal diet tu, sekarang ni memang semangat nak diet takde lansung. Even nak control foods intake pun takde. I eat whatever I want to eat at anytime I want to eat. Terukkan?

But no worries, semangat nak kurus balik memang sentiasa cuma nak start tu je yang malas. Too many obstacles and I am trying to settle it one by one. InsyaAllah, the time will come and all the malas mode will be off soon. Hehe.

Till then,

Rara

75 Reminders for Tough Times

2011-11-14T13:44:00.000+08:00

You never know how strong you really are until being strong is the only choice you have.
Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.
You cannot change what you refuse to confront.
Nobody is perfect, and nobody deserves to be perfect. Nobody has it easy. You never know what people are going through. Every one of us has issues. So don’t belittle yourself or anyone else. Everybody is fighting their own unique war.
Crying doesn’t indicate that you’re weak. Since birth, it has always been a sign that you’re alive and full of potential.
No matter how many mistakes you make or how slow you progress, you are still way ahead of everyone who isn’t trying. (Read Unstoppable.)
Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass, it’s about learning to dance in the rain.
Grudges are a waste of perfect happiness. Let it go.
Making one person smile can change the world. Maybe not the whole world, but their world. Start small. Start now.
Sometimes you need to distance yourself to see things clearly.
Never let success get to your head, and never let failure get to your heart.
You have to fight through some bad days to earn the best days of your life.
Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it.
You can learn great things from your mistakes when you aren’t busy denying them.
Give up worrying about what others think of you. What they think isn’t important. What is important is how you feel about yourself.
When you stop chasing the wrong things you give the right things a chance to catch you.
When other people treat you poorly, keep being you. Don’t ever let someone else’s bitterness change the person you are.
You have to accept that some things will never be yours, and learn to appreciate the things that are only yours.
Sometimes it’s easy to feel like you’re the only one in the world who’s struggling, who’s frustrated, or unsatisfied, or barely getting by. But that feeling is a lie. And if you just hold on, someone will find you and help make it better. Because we all need a little help sometimes – someone to help us hear the music in our world. To remind us that it won’t always be this way. That someone is out there right now.
Don’t be afraid to move out of your comfort zone. Some of your best life experiences and opportunities will transpire only after you dare to lose.
Sometimes we accidentally allow small problems to escalate and dominate our lives. If we get overcharged a few cents, it is irritating, but don’t let it ruin your day. There will always be small issues that irritate us; the secret is to be able to give them the miniscule level of importance they deserve.
Giving up doesn’t always mean you’re weak, sometimes it means you are strong enough and smart enough to let go. (Read The Dip.)
Ask yourself whether each of your relationships drags you down or lifts you up. Surrounding yourself with positive, loving people is half the battle of living a happy, successful life.
Spend more time with those who make you smile and less time with those who you feel pressured to impress.
There are few joys in life that equal a good conversation, a good read, a good walk, a good hug, a good smile, or a good friend.
Don’t dwell on the past or worry about the future for too long. Right now is life. Live it.
No matter how cautiously you choose your words, someone will always twist them around and misinterpret what you say. So just say what you need to say.
In order to be creative, we must lose our fear of being wrong.
Not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of good luck.
To be great does not mean you have to dominate others. It means you have to dominate your own potential.
If you are passionate about something, pursue it, no matter what anyone else thinks. That’s how dreams are achieved.
If you keep doing what you’re doing, you’ll keep getting what you’re getting.
Forgiveness is one of the primary keys to happiness.
The best revenge is happiness, because nothing drives your adversaries more insane than seeing you smile.
Stay positive when negativity surrounds you. Smile when others frown. It’s an easy way to make a difference.
If a person wants to be a part of your life, they will make an obvious effort to do so. Don’t bother reserving a space in your heart for people who do not make an effort to stay.
Don’t regret intimate relationships that don’t work out. Because they will only help you find the right partner for you, and better appreciate them for everything they do and everything they are.
What lies before us and behind us are tiny matters when compared to what lies within us.
The real world doesn’t reward perfectionists. It rewards people who get things done. And the only way to get things done is to be imperfect 99% of the time.
Never lie – not even a white lie! When you steer away from the truth, you steer away from your soul. Be honest, be real and tell the truth. This awareness forces you to make better choices and be a stronger person.
Feelings, good and bad, always come and go.
Don’t get caught up in wasted potential from years past. Potential is all we ever have.
We are not alone. No matter how bizarre or embarrassed or pathetic we feel about our own situation, there will be others out there experiencing the same emotions. When you hear yourself say “I am all alone,” it is your mind trying to sell you a lie so you will continue to feel sorry for yourself.
It is okay to be angry. It is never okay to be cruel.
Don’t pray when it rains if you don’t pray when the sun shines.
Mistakes teach you important lessons. Every time you make one, you’re one step closer to your goal. The only mistake that can truly hurt you is choosing to do nothing simply because you’re too scared to make a mistake.
Money is a renewable resource. If you lose some money, don’t sweat it. You can always make more. However, if you spend valuable time stressing over money, or lost opportunity, you’ll never get that time back. Time is more valuable than money – time is the greatest constituent of life.
Never let people know that they got to you. Ignore them. Hold your head up high and pretend all their negative remarks don’t even phase you, and someday they actually won’t.
There is nothing to hold you back except you. And there is only one question to ask yourself: “What would you do if you were not afraid?” Think about it.
Life is way more enjoyable when you stop trying to be cool and simply focus on being yourself.
It’s often hard to tell just how close you are to success.
When you spend time worrying, you’re simply using your imagination to create things you don’t want.
No matter how it turns out, it always ends up just the way it should be. Either you succeed or you learn something. Win-Win.
You must see things how they are instead of how you hoped, wished, or expected them to be.
Even when you feel like you have nothing, someone else likely has far less. Find them and help them. You’ll see why.
Laughter is the best medicine for stress. Laugh at yourself often. Find the humor in whatever situation you’re in.
If you want to feel rich, just count all the great things you have thatmoney can’t buy.
Forgiving yourself is far more important than getting others to forgive you.
If you awake every morning with the thought that something wonderful will happen in your life today, and you pay close attention, you’ll often find that you’re right.
You can press forward long after you can’t. It’s just a matter of wanting it bad enough.
It’s not about getting a chance, it’s about taking a chance. You’ll rarely be 100% sure it will work. But you can always be 100% sure doing nothing won’t work. Sometimes you just have to go for it!
If it were easy everyone would do it. This is why get rich quick schemes will never be true. If it was so quick and easy then everyone would be millionaires. Accomplishing great things is hard work, but well worth it.
Notice and cherish life’s surprises. Just because it’s not what you were expecting, doesn’t mean it’s not everything you’ve been waiting for.
Be vulnerable. Allow yourself to feel, to be open and authentic. Tear down any emotional brick walls you have built around you and feel every exquisite emotion, both good and bad. This is real life. This is how you welcome new opportunities.
You must create and look for opportunities. Opportunities rarely ever come knocking on the door of someone who’s not seeking them. You have to create and seek opportunities for yourself. You have to take the initiative to get the ball rolling and the doors opening.
If it’s out of your control, why fret about it? Concentrating on things you can control is how you make good things happen.
Saying “no” to right people gives you the time and resources required to say “yes” to right opportunities. (Read The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People.)
No matter how much progress you make there will always be the people who insist that whatever you’re trying to do is impossible. Or they may incessantly suggest that the idea or dream as a whole is utterly ridiculous because nobody really cares. When you come across these people, don’t try to reason with them. Instead, forget that they exist. They will only waste your time and energy.
If you spend 80% of your time focusing on the problem and only 20% on the solution, what do you think is going to happen?
No matter how badly you think your life may be going, or how messed up you think you are, there is at least one thing you are doing right in your life or you wouldn’t be alive reading this.
A problem is a chance for you to learn.
The greatest struggle is to be something different from what the average man is.
In times of great stress, it’s always wise to keep busy, to plow your anger and frustration into something positive.
One thing is for sure: Regardless of the situation, life goes on.
Everyone wants a perfect ending. But over the years I’ve learned that some of the best poems don’t rhyme, and many great stories don’t have a clear beginning, middle, or end. Life is about not knowing, embracing change, and taking a moment and making the best of it without knowing what’s going to happen next.

Oh, and…

Phoa Hoa? What's that? Okay, selalu nampak Diandra check in Foursquare this place. So I was wondering, what exactly this place serve sampai hari hari Diandra will be lunch at that place. One day, me and boyfie check out this place.

They served Vietnamese Beef Noodles. So yummy and healthy food and also big portion. Even amik yang small bowl pun still, boleh share 2 orang. Price a bit pricey, for me lah. One small bowl of beef noodles can cost around RM14++. Well, kalau sedap memanglah mahal sikit kan?

After all, whoever yang suka something soupy, should try this place. The pho noodles are made from 100% rice flour & imported from Vietnam and every bowl is accompanied with fresh coriander leaves, bean sprouts, hot chili padi, lemon wedges and basil leaves. See, healthy tak ?

I Believe

2011-11-05T19:45:00.000+08:00

I believe...

that two people can look at the exact same thing and see something totally different.

I believe…

that your life can be changed in a matter of hours by people who don’t even know you.

I believe…

that even when you think you have no more to give, when a friend cries out to you, you will find the strength to help.

I believe…

that credentials on the wall do not make you a decent human being.

I believe…

that the people you care about most in life are taken from you too soon.

I believe…

that sometimes when I’m angry I have the right to be angry but that doesn’t give me the right to be cruel.

I believe…

that just because someone doesn’t love you the way you want them to doesn’t mean they don’t love you with all they have.

I believe…

that maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you’ve had and what you’ve learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays you’ve celebrated.

I believe…

that it isn’t always enough to be forgiven by others. Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.

I believe…

that no matter how bad your heart is broken that the world doesn’t stop for your grief.

I believe…

that our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become.

I believe…

that just because two people argue, it doesn’t mean they don’t love each other. And just because they don’t argue, it doesn’t mean they do.

I believe…

that you shouldn’t be eager to find out a secret. It could change your life forever.

I believe…

that it’s taking me a long time to become the person I want to be.

I believe…

that you should always leave loved ones with loving well wishes. It may be the last time you see them.

I believe…

that you can keep going long after you can’t.

I believe…

that we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.

I believe…

that we don’t have to change friends, if we understand that friends change.

I believe…

that no matter how good a friend is, they’re going to hurt you once in a while and you must forgive them for that.

I believe…

that true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance. Same goes for true love.

I believe…

that you either control your attitude or it controls you.

I believe…

that regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is at first, that passion fades and there had better be something else to take its place.

I believe…

that heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.

I believe…

that you can do something in an instant that will give you heartache for life.

I believe…

that money is a lousy way of keeping score.

I believe…

that my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and have the best time.

I believe…

that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you’re down, will be the ones who help you get back up.

Another post for lapar moment, and also malas post. Hehe.

Pizza San Francisco located at Bukit Jelutong. This one was for my farewell lunch at the old office. I was working as Admin Assistant at Seksyen 13, Shah Alam. The salmon spaghetti carbonara things, *sorry, I'm totally forgot about the name* was damn delicious. But the brownies, disappointing me. Apa ada hal, orang belanja kan?

3 course meal. Wow right? Hehehe.

I've learnt that...

you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is be someone who can be loved. The rest is up to them.
no matter how much I care, some people just don't care back.
it takes years to build up trust, and only seconds to destroy it.
it's not what you have in your life, but who you have in your life that counts.
you can do something in an instant that will give you a heartache for life.
no matter how thin you slice it, there are always two sides.
you should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be the last time you see them.
we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.
there are people who love you dearly, but just don't know how to show it.
true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance. Same goes for true love.
just because someone doesnt love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.
maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've had and what you've learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays you've celebrated.
no matter how good a friend someone is, they're going to hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that.
no matter how bad your heart is broken the world doesn't stop for your grief.
just because two people argue, it doesn't mean they don't love each other.And just because they don't argue, it doesn't mean they do.
we don't have to change friends if we understand that friends change.
you shouldn't be so eager to find out a secret. It could change your life forever.
there are many ways of falling and staying in love.
no matter how many friends you have, if you are their pillar, you will feel lonely and lost at the times you need them most.
the people you care most about in life are taken from you to soon.
although the word "love" can have many different meanings, it loses value when overly used.
love is not for me to keep, but to pass on to the next person I see.
there are people who love you dearly but just don't know how to show it.
even when I have pains, I don't have to be one.
every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love that human touch-holding hands, a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.
I still have a lot to learn......

Good Morning Oatmeal & Gronala Bars

2011-10-29T09:00:00.000+08:00

Good morning. Selamat pagi semua.

Since last week, I da tukar my breakfast routine. Dulu pagi-pagi makan nasi lemak, fried meehoon, roti bakar telur and milo ais. Memang every morning macam tu, but since mommy told me, her friends told her that I gain weight more than last time that they saw me, I decide to take my own incentive to lost weight without have to diet extremely.

I took Usana's product. Reset for 5 days. I lost weight around 2 - 3 kg per week, but then some internal problems appear, I gain double than what I lose. Now, when I look myself in the picture, I pity to that girl. She use to have slim body previously but now, nak pakai body hugging baby-t pun, dah rasa malu.

So lepas ni kalau lapar jugak in between meals hour, I just grab some granola bars. Wah, hebatkan? Nak kurus punya pasal kan?

Memory is just as memory

2011-10-26T13:31:00.000+08:00

I'm not sure why suddenly I click my draft post and read all the post that I should delete 3 years ago. Maybe I still want the memory linger around me, or maybe I would read it in future so that I know, how exactly I am in the past.

Well, most of blog's entries was dedicated to my love life. And somehow, I turn it to be a foods blog. Well, I rarely do blog nowadays, more focus on Twitter, but I guess since I retired, well, no retired officially-lah, but slow in Twitter world, I guess I might spend more time focusing on my blog.

Can't do much on love life story again, as, well, you guys read on Hanis Zalikha's entry about publishing love life story right. So, I need to think about 2 - 3 people that might still reading my blog. I guess I will post generally about it.

Till then.

Xoxo,

When Pimples Attack

2011-10-24T13:00:00.000+08:00

I'm not sure why suddenly pimples pop out from my face. Either because of the weather, hormones or I'm thinking too much. Mom noticed it and said that I'm thinking too much and because that, it pop out. I'm not sure which was the cause but what I know I want to get rid of it before Raya shown up.

*it's not my skin. but still my face full with it. :(

What is pimples?

A pimple is a result of a blockage of the skin's pore. It can be a pustule or papule.^[1]

Stop Squeezing Your Pimples - 7 Safe Ways to Get Rid of Pimples

It's everyone's worst nightmare. Waking up the day before a special event to discover a big, red pimple baring itself for all to see right on your face!

Here's how to get rid of it quickly and safely:

1. Don't ever pinch, squeeze or pick at a pimple. This only causes it to become more red and inflamed, and will spread the bacteria and oils that caused it in the first place, to other parts of your face! It can also lead to scars.

2. Every 30 minutes, apply an ice pack to the pimple and hold it there for about 2 minutes. This will decrease the swelling and redness and help shrink the inflammation and pain that sometimes comes along with it.

3. They don't call it concealer for nothing! Covering the pimple with a light dose of flesh-tinted concealer can help mask it when you're in a hurry. It also helps cover up that oily shine.

4. Cleanse your skin 2-3 times a day with mild, unscented soap or a specialized acne cleanser that has no harsh chemicals (such as lye). Scrub skin gently with an exfoliating pad or washcloth, but don't rub too hard, otherwise you'll sap your skin of its own natural oils, which help to repel buildup naturally.

5. Apply a cream or ointment containing benzyl peroxide or salicylic acid (many over-the-counter acne medicines contain these ingredients) to the blemish or around the entire facial area. Note that these ingredients both have a tendency to dry out skin if used too much and are not recommended if you have sensitive skin.

6. Wear oil-free makeup whenever possible. These types have less of a tendency to cause the pore buildup that results in blemishes. Remove your makeup nightly and cleanse with an acne-fighting medicine to remove dirt, oil and makeup from deep within the skin.

7. If you're in need of a quick fix, a dab of toothpaste on the affected area right before bed can help soothe irritation and reduce redness. Pressing and holding a wet tea bag or a cotton ball with a dab of lemon juice against the blemish for five minutes can also reduce swelling and redness.

If you follow these tips, chances are you'll notice a significant difference rather quickly - often within a day or two. If pimples become a recurring problem or worsen, your doctor or dermatologist can suggest a daily skin cleansing routine that will suit your skin type. Other long-term remedies, such as facial masks, diet adjustments and increasing the amount of water you drink can also help combat outbreaks.

50 Things You Need To Give Up Today

2011-10-17T16:57:00.000+08:00

When you stop chasing the wrong things, you give the right things a chance to catch you.

So starting today…

Give up trying to be perfect. – The real world doesn’t reward perfectionists, it rewards people who get things done. Read Getting Things Done.
Give up comparing yourself to others. – The only person you are competing against is yourself.
Give up dwelling on the past or worrying too much about the future. – Right now is the only moment guaranteed to you. Right now is life. Don’t miss it.
Give up complaining. – Do something about it.
Give up holding grudges. – Grudges are a waste of perfect happiness.
Give up waiting. – What we don’t start today won’t be finished by tomorrow. Knowledge and intelligence are both useless without action.
Give up lying. – In the long-run the truth always reveals itself. Either you own up to your actions or your actions will ultimately own you.
Give up trying to avoid mistakes. – The only mistake that can truly hurt you is choosing to do nothing simply because you’re too scared to make a mistake.
Give up saying, “I can’t.” – As Henry Ford put it, “Whether you think you can or you think you can’t, you are right.”
Give up trying to be everything to everyone. – Making one person smile can change the world. Maybe not the whole world, but their world. Start small. Start now.
Give up thinking you’re not ready. – Nobody ever feels 100% ready when an opportunity arises. Because most great opportunities in life force us to grow beyond our comfort zones, which means we won’t feel totally comfortable at first.
Give up setting small goals for yourself. – Many people set small goals because they’re afraid to fail. Ironically, setting these small goals is what makes them fail.
Give up trying to do everything by yourself. – You are the sum of the people you spend the most time with. If you work together, you will be far more capable and powerful than you ever could have been alone.
Give up buying things you don’t need. – Manage your money wisely so your money does not manage you. Do not spend to impress others. Do not live life trying to fool yourself into thinking wealth is measured in material objects. Read I Will Teach You To Be Rich.
Give up blaming others for your troubles. – The extent to which you can live your dream life depends on the extent to which you take responsibility for your life. When you blame others for what you’re going through, you deny responsibility – you give others power over that part of your life.
Give up making mountains out of molehills. – One way to check if something is worth mulling over is to ask yourself this question: “Will this matter in one year’s time? Three years? Five years? If not, then it’s not worth worrying about.
Give up trying to live up to the expectations of others. – Work on it for real and exceed your own expectations. Everything else will fall into place.
Give up the ‘easy street’ mentality. – There is too much emphasis on finding a ‘quick fix’ in today’s society. For example taking diet pills to lose weight instead of exercising and eating well. No amount of magic fairy dust replaces diligent, focused, hard work.
Give up making promises you can’t keep. – Don’t over-promise. Over-deliver on everything you do.
Give up letting your thoughts and feelings bottle up inside. – People are not mind readers. They will never know how you feel unless you tell them.
Give up beating around the bush. – Say what you mean and mean what you say. Communicate effectively.
Give up avoiding change. – However good or bad a situation is now, it will change. That’s the one thing you can count on. So embrace change and realize that change happens for a reason. It won’t always be easy or obvious at first, but in the end it will be worth it.
Give up your sense of entitlement. – Nobody is entitled to anything in this world. We are all equal. We breathe the same air. We get what we give. We get what we earn.
Give up waiting until the last minute. – Those who fail to plan, plan to fail.
Give up being dramatic. – Stay out of other people’s drama and don’t needlessly create your own.
Give up being anti-athletic. – Get your body moving! Simply take a long, relaxing walk or commit 30 minutes to an at-home exercise program like the P90X workout.
Give up junk food. – You are what you eat. Read The 4-Hour Body.
Give up eating as a means of entertainment. – Don’t eat when you’re bored. Eat when you’re hungry.
Give up foolish habits that you know are foolish. – Don’t text and drive. Don’t drink and drive. Don’t smoke. Etc.
Give up relationships with people who bring you down. – Saying “no” to right people gives you the time and resources required to say “yes” to right opportunities. Spend time with nice people who are smart, driven and likeminded.
Give up being shy. – Network with people. Meet new people. Ask questions. Introduce yourself.
Give up worrying about what others think of you. – Unless you’re trying to make a great first impression (job interview, first date, etc.), don’t let the opinions of others stand in your way. What they think and say about you isn’t important. What is important is how you feel about yourself.
Give up trying to control everything. – Life is an unpredictable phenomenon. No matter how good or bad things seem right now, we can never be 100% certain what will happen next. So do you best with what’s in front of you and leave the rest to the powers above you.
Give up doing the same thing over and over again. – In order to grow, you must expand your horizons and break free of your comfort zone. If you keep doing what you’re doing, you’ll keep getting what you’re getting.
Give up following the path of least resistance. – Life is not easy, especially when you plan on achieving something worthwhile. Don’t find the easy way out. Do something extraordinary.
Give up persistent multi-tasking. – Do one thing at a time and do it right.
Give up thinking others are luckier than you. – The harder you work, the luckier you will become.
Give up filling every waking moment with commitments and activities. – It’s okay to be alone. It’s okay to do nothing sometimes. Think. Relax. Breathe. Be.
Give up making emotional decisions. – Don’t let your emotions trump your intelligence. Slow down and think things through before you make any life-changing decisions.
Give up doing the wrong things just because you can get away with it. – Just because you can get away with something doesn’t mean you should do it. Think bigger. Keep the end in mind. Do what you know in your heart is right.
Give up focusing on what you don’t want to happen. – Focus on what you do want to happen. Positive thinking is at the forefront of every great success story. If you awake every morning with the thought that something wonderful will happen in your life today, and you pay close attention, you’ll often find that you’re right.
Give up taking yourself so seriously. – Few others do anyway. So enjoy yourself and have a little fun while you can.
Give up spending your life working in a career field you’re notpassionate about. – Life is too short for such nonsense. The right career choice is based on one key point: Finding hard work you love doing. So if you catch yourself working hard and loving every minute of it, don’t stop. You’re on to something big. Because hard work ain’t hard when you concentrate on your passions. Read The 4-Hour Workweek.
Give up thinking about the things you don’t have. – Appreciate everything you do have. Many people aren’t so lucky.
Give up doubting others. – People who are determined do remarkable things. Remember, the one who says it can’t be done should never interrupt the one doing it.
Give up fussing with every beauty product on the market. – Good looks attracts the eyes. Personality attracts the heart. Be proud to be you. That’s when you’re beautiful.
Give up trying to fit in. – Don’t mold yourself into someone you’re not. Be yourself. Oftentimes, the only reason they want you to fit in is that once you do they can ignore you and go about their business.
Give up trying to be different for the sake of being different. – Nonconformity for the sake of nonconformity is conformity. When people try too hard to be different, they usually end up being just like everyone else who is trying to be different. Once again, be yourself.
Give up trying to avoid risk. – There’s no such thing as ‘risk free.’ Everything you do or don’t do has an inherent risk.
Give up putting your own needs on the back burner. – Yes, help others, but help yourself too. If there was ever a moment to follow your passion and do something that matters to you, that moment is now.

And remember, mistakes make us human, failures help us grow, hope keeps us going and love is the reason we’re alive. So keep learning, loving and living. Never give up on yourself.

Not Good

2011-10-14T16:00:00.000+08:00

I'm not feeling so good this lately. Like everything is messed up. From life, love life, work and everything that around me.

I'm feeling down. Nothing that can make me happy or cheer me. Maybe I need to do some reset thingy. I did the reset thingy with my diet. Few people noticed me losing some weight. That's great right? But I don't feel anything. Is it the problem start from me?

Nahhh. Need to calm myself down first. Till then.

Don't worry, just breath. If it's meant to be, it will find it's way.

Dear You

2011-10-11T17:00:00.000+08:00

Dear Momo,

You know how much you mean to me. And it scares me. It scares me to know that you have the on and off switch to my happiness. Everyday I fear that you’re just gonna turn around and leave. All I want to be is be with you. There is no one else. I can act like I hate you, and not talk to you. But I’ll never be over you. We’ve made it this far, and I’m not giving up. You make me laugh. You make me cry. You make me happy. You mean the world to me. Please let this work, please. I’ve thought about letting go, since I’m always told I can do better, and that you aren’t worth the stress. But I don’t want better, I want you. I want us. I can’t just leave us and question ‘what if?’ the rest of my life. As much as I hate admitting this, I love you. There I said it. I’ve never loved anyone, especially the way I love you. You could make every mistake in the world and I would stay by your side. No one will ever understand us, except us. Being with you just feels right, and it’s not like that with anyone else. The fact that it’s been like this forever, and I still get nervous around you. I’m not letting go. I won’t. I can’t. And I sure do hope you feel the same way.

Everyday that I wake up, I wonder if it’s finally that day. That day when you’ll look me in my eyes and say, “I choose you.” And everyday that it doesn’t happen makes me think that maybe it never will.

Raya Tahun 2011

2011-09-22T18:32:00.001+08:00

Penghujung raya baru nak update blog pasal raya tahun ni kan? Well, nak buat macam mane, raya tahun ni raya paling tak best. So entry kali ini bukan tak best mana lah.

Lets me start cerita raya tahun ini.

Malam raya semua orang kerja. Me, dad and also my little sister. So yang ada kat rumah pun mummy and si kecik tu je lah. Takde persiapan sangat pun. Pagi raya, yang paling excited, I sorang jer. Bangun pagi, mandi, tengok tv, dengar takbir. What else? Gosokkan baju kurung adik adik. Hmmm, tu je lah.

Pagi raya. Salam peluk cium. Dan duit rayaaaa.

Later at noon, baru drive balik Mantin. We headed to Lenggeng first, rumah nenek sedara. And then baru balik kampung yang sebenar-benarnya. Ramai jugak, sampai tak boleh nak parking dalam. My pak long tengah baca doa rupanya. Dah berkumpul adik beradik kan?

Drive back to Mantin. Jammed.

At Lenggeng.

Adik-beradik mummy yang balik kampung.

Lepas tu, aktiviti bebas. Around 4pm, I went to Seremban, pick up Bi, supposed beraya rumah dia, but disebabkan I keseorangan, takde teman, memang tanaklah jumpa family dia. In the end, kteorang pergi Oldtown, dan having our tea time.

With Irakamil =)

Since few twitter live nearby, Bi called Aizad and Kuala Pilah, here we go. Sempatlah beraya dengan Facktura, Elle dan Aizadfahmy itself. Lepas beraya pilah, we went to Ice Room and I went back to Mantin at 2am. Dah lah LEKAS tu scary gila. Memang pecut sakan like 160km/j. Lepas balik Mantin, balik Klang la pulak.

Okay, enjoy raya pictures this year. Itu je cerita raya tahun ini. Boringkan?

I went to their #WHOlah Friends #twtup at The Masterpiece, Petaling Jaya. It was a old bungalow with nice environment. You can do some private party, BBQ party or even wedding reception. EH? Wedding? LOL.

Good Monday Morning.

Today, I start my diet ... yeah ... again.
I have to start diet again as my siblings complain I'm getting bigger and bigger.

This morning I took my diet protein and few supplements pills.

Urgh! It takes me half hour to finish the protein mix and few tablets. I hate pills, especially the big one.

This diet takes for 5 days with no solid foods. I only can eat veggies and fruits only. Hopefully I can stand this kind of diets.

I will update the progress later.

He's Coming Home

2011-08-10T16:47:00.000+08:00

Flight SV 0832. Jeddah - Kuala Lumpur. ETA 11/08/2011 01:00 PM

I'm not sure whether this is his flight or not, but when I check at Malaysia Airports Flight Information

this is what I found for arrivals flight at 1pm tomorrow, and I'm sure this is his flight.

I cant wait to meet him and celebrate our first year anniversary this coming 12 August 2011. I can't believe we been together for that long. I thought it was like few months ago.

I'm a bit nervous and feel awkward. 2 weeks separate, feels like having a blind date. Well, we never been separate for this longs, and I am really excited to meet him again. Macam first date pulak.

Till then, selamat berbuka.

Selamat Menyambut Ramadhan Al Mubarak

2011-07-31T20:55:00.000+08:00

Esok first day puasa and esok jugak first day work kat company lain. Permulaan yang baikkan?

Tahun ni puasa tanpa dia disini. Momo sambut puasa kat Tanah Suci Mekah dengan family dia. Alhamdulillah rezeki dia sambut puasa kat sana.

Second day puasa tahun lepas was our first official date. And we gonna celebrate our first anniversary in 12 days from now. And yes, at that time, he's already back from Mecca.

I wish all of my TwitterJaya's friends, Selamat Menyambut Ramadhan Al Mubarak. Tak sabar nak tunggu dia balik.

Well, hello there.

It’s been awhile. Not that I stop blogging it just I don’t know what to blog anymore. Twitter is much easier than having a blog.

Mostly on my blog, I only update my jalan-jalan cari makan post. I think there’s more than 25 posts that I not yet produce or even making about it. I think when I have so much idea to play with it, i'll post one soon.

2 months back as Customer Services in one of Malaysia’s telco made me back in stressed mode and always cranky. Their customer more daring and demanding, but that is my job right? I’m the one who choose to be in this field. Not that I’m complaining, it just sometimes I feel like wanna quit facing this whole of drama. After 2 seconds of breath, there’s another drama created.

In life, there’s no easy way to be successful. Yet, there’s a way to be successful. I pray to god that next interview would be by this week, InsyaAllah. Other than that, friends and siblings, all okay. Love life? Counting to our first anniversary this coming ramadhan. Hopefully everything went well.

Till then, see u guys around.

Xoxo,

Rara Joe.

Happy Birthday Rara Joe

2011-05-12T16:30:00.001+08:00

Happy 26th Birthday Rara Joe!

First of all, Alhamdulillah. 26 years old and I'm still alive and breathing.

Thank you for all the wishes. I feel blessed surrounding with all the great friends.

And of course, big applause to a man that I'm crazy in love with, Khir Omar for gathered most of my close friends to sing the birthday song at Herris Delicious Cafe.

Like last year, I don't fancy to celebrate my birthday. Why? Because I think I am now entering the adult phase which more responsible and more pressure.

One of the pressure is about marriage. Yeah, mom kept on asking the same question over and over again. I know she worried, I think its like 2 years she worried about me not getting married.

It's not easy to become a perfect wife, not that I cant be one but I want to make sure that I'm ready to be a perfect wife to my husband. When the time come, I'll make sure I will broadcast this good news to all of you.

Talking about responsible, Eyka will finished her study by next year and Belle going to seat for PMR end of this year. I need to make sure both of them scored with flying colours for their papers. I need to make sure that they gonna make my parents proud of them and of course me too.

So, today I'm going to have the birthday dinner with my family and Bi is invite to join us. I guess he's must be nervous to meet both of my parents. Well, when you turn to my age, you'll get the pressure too.

Till then,

Thanks again.

Rara eats: BBQ Chicken

2011-04-24T14:13:00.000+08:00

Last time I went to BBQ Chicken. It was introduce by my best friend, Azfar. From what I know, BBQ Chicken is Korea Chicken Restaurant. They use 100% olive oil to cook their fresh chicken meat.

Since this was my first time here, I tried the signature dish which is Teriyaki Chicken set. I don't fancy the taste, maybe because I dont like anything with teriyaki sauce. But for me, for first timer, it was really nice.

Other than I also had their desserts. Common deserts lah. Triple ice cream yadayadayada. Overall, good foods, nice environment and affordable.

BBQ Chicken have many branch. This one was at Wangsa Walk. You guys can check at BBQ Chicken website to know more about them.

2011-04-05T23:30:00.005+08:00

Well, nothing much I can say about Happy Jack. Why? Sebab I heard kedai ni pun dah tutup. Kenapa tutup, tak sure lah pulak sebab masa time ni pergi, last year kot.

This kedai kat Wangsa Maju, belakang NZ. Apa nama kedai pun dah lupa, but since memang nak hapdate segala foods picx yang ada, so here it is.

Homemade patties. Memang marvellous. I rasa this one is lamb burger, double with cheese. Price pun not bad, you can custom made. Nak letak apa dan apa, nanti brader tu just kirakan for u jelah.

Kalau tak salah ada lagi satu branch kat Hartamas. Bukak lagi or not, tidaklah pula saya ketahuan. Maybe boleh tanya-tanya mereka yang selalu lepak di Hartamas.

No review as shop closed. But kalau nak try your luck, can click this foursquare venue okay? Kalau dah pergi and still ade lagi, update kat sini ye. Thanks. =)

Rara eats: Gold Chilli

2011-04-04T19:11:00.001+08:00

I rasa Gold Chilli dah famous sangat di kalangan orang-orang yang duduk Subang. Terletak kat SS15, sebelah Darussalam. Kalau korang tau Popmyberry, kedai ni satu row. Senang je. Pusing-pusing SS15 mesti jumpa punya.

Kat Gold Chilli, food yang selalu mereka mereka order semestinya Butter Chicken. Cukup rasa, cukup butter dan jugak cukup potion. Kalau time lapar memang rasa, satu pinggan tak cukup, but then bila dah masuk mulut, confirm cepat kenyang.

Dengar cerita, tukang masak kat sini memang ikut betul-betul resipi. Sebelum masak, semua perasa, perisa, ayam, butter di timbang dahulu. So that, rasa akan sama sahaja setiap kali makan kat sini. Sebab tu services diorang lambat sikit. Quality foods tu memang diorang jagalah. Tip top.

Normally I akan order, Spicy beef fried rice and butter chicken. So bila mix pedas and butter, taklah rasa muak sangat. Setiap kali datang memang menu je lah order. Dah lama dah tak pergi but i bet rasa butter chicken tetap maintain.

Rara eats: Burger & Pan Mee

2011-03-20T10:15:00.000+08:00

Pernah makan burger yang pattynya lain dari yang biasa? Selalunya favorite patty adalah ayam atau daging. Paling bestpun, kambing.

This time kita makan Burger Ostrich/Burung Unta.

First bite, memang superb. Memang sedap giler. The patty to meaty so muak sikit bila dah 2 3 bite. My friend said, AinZulkifly makan dengan cheese will made it more tastier. Gonna try it soon with cheese pulak.

The other day lepas gym, terus shoot Misai and this time I makan Pan Mee Soup pulak. First time try. Sedap. Macam makan kuey teow but pan mee is more .... yummy I guess. LOL.

More variety and choice of foods there. Nasi lemak, nasi ayam, and also Chinese foods. Oh, and one more things. Please get ready, once korang duduk je, 2 - 3 orang akan serbu tempat korang dan akan suggest semua makanan kat situ. Memang rimas ah.

Rara eats: Tony's Roma

2011-03-19T21:52:00.000+08:00

This was supposed to publish last year. Yeah, I'm lazy to dig this post until tonight when I go through my folder. So here it is.

So, it was his 25th birthday. I don’t know where to bring him for his birthday. The day before and few friends help me to surprise him with one small cupcake, thanks Pammye.

Since he loves lamb so much, we went to Tony’s Roma for a simple birthday dinner. I heard that their lamb chop is the bomb, and also their signature dish, the ribs, so we give it a try.

I ordered Roma Rack, consists of three pieces of beef ribs, coleslaw and fries with Ice Lemon Tea, and for him Lamb Grilled Chop, with three huge of lamb chop, baked potato and broccoli.

I like the lamb chop more than the ribs, maybe because I love lamb more than beef but overall, it was really an awesome dinner. Without cake and candle, I’ll bet he memorize it till next year, hope so. Happy Birthday Bi.

Rara eats: Ah Cheng Laksa

2011-01-30T15:32:00.003+08:00

Everytime lalu McD, sure nampak ramai sangat orang kat Ah Cheng Laksa. Sedap sangat ke sampai fullhouse. Kalau break pukul 1, memang takkan dpt seat. So this time lunch break at 12pm. Just nice to have some assam laksa or curry me.

This is my second time went here for lunch. For the first time I ate Assam Laksa. Superb. Memang sedap. This time rasa macam nak makan foods lain pulak. I ordered Curry Mee (RM6.90) and Longan (RM2.00)

Hmmmm. The curry me was okaylah. Oldtown lagi sedap kot. Maybe because I can rasa the rempah-rempah other than rempah kari. Longan drinks? They put dalam bowl. It’s really hard for you to drink. Have to spoon one by one. But still, I enjoy eating alone at Ah Cheng Laksa.

Rara eats: Laksa Kuala Kangsar

2011-01-28T12:00:00.000+08:00

Hari tu balik dari Penang, singgah Kuala Kangsar kejap. Da lama tak melawat. Selalunya memang macam tu, kalau ade extra time, memang akan masuk Kuala Kangsar ataupun Bukit Merah Laketown Resort.

This time kiteorang pergi kat area pasar tu, tepi Sungai Perak. Cantik je dari jauh da nampak Jambatan ape tah diorang panggil tu. Silap-silap Zombie~~land~~ Kampung Pisang buat shoot kat sini.

Bila da duduk tu tipulah kalau tak makan kan? So, nampaklah banner laksa ni. Nak jugaklah try since diorang kata, oranglah kata laksa kuala ni lain dari yang lain.

Yang ini Laksa Kalam. Laksa Kuala Kangsar memang cair tapi rasa tetap ummph. Either then laksa kalam, kteorang rasa jugak Laksa Pak Ngah. Memang sedap. Memang famous pun kat sini. But too bad, lupa nak snap gambar.

But for me, I don't prefer laksa kuah cair ni, kureng gemar. Kalau laksa penang ke assam laksa ke, memang terbaik. Memandangkan Laksa Pak Ngah and Laksa Kalam ni jual pakai lori/motor, susah nak bagi direction.

Tapi kalau nak carik jugak, boleh google Laksa Pak Ngah. Memang tiptop okay.

Second time makan kat sini. Masa mula-mula try tu macam tak boleh nak terima because sambal belacan dia pedas sangat-sangat. At that time makan with my bff. They ordered kangkung belacan too. Woah. Surrender.

At that time also, I tried Jus Alpukat. Grrr. Too sweet to me and too juicy. Reject. Kangkung belacan? Too spicy. Reject. Gado-gado? Nice one.

This time we went here for dinner. Ayam Penyet (RM7.90) for both, White Rice (RM1.90), Jus Alpukat , Soda Gembira (RM3.50) and Gado-gado (RM5.90).

Makan dengan penuh semangatnya. Craving punya pasalkan. Ayam dan kicap manis dengan nasi panas-panas. Memang ohsem sangat-sangat. Gado-gado pun sedap. With the keropok and peanut sauces, tempe some vege. Marvelous.

Definitely will going back for other menu.

Rara eats: Char Kuey Teow TTDI

2011-01-25T11:02:00.004+08:00

Semalam craving char kuey teow basah Mali’s. Tapi sebab sedikit jauh dan nak balik cepat nak tengok first episode Gemilang, kawan-kawan I berlakon uolls. I carik je lah area-area Petaling Jaya ni.

Hari tu dah pergi Char Kuey Teow Auntie Gemok kat Restauran Jamal, dekat dengan FAM tu. Okaylah macam CKT penang jugak.

But semalam nak yang macam Mali’s, CKT basah. Yums. So, google lah carik kot kot ade. Ade yang suggest Doli TTDI tu, hmm, memang nak pergi tapi nantilah. Terjumpalah kat Restoran Warisan Maju.

Obviously yang pinggan besar tu I yang punya. Memang ramai customer kat situ. Mostly customer kat situ dari Vads. Time break memang diorang lepak situ. Foods selection pun banyak. Ada Mee Bandung Muar, Soto Muar, Otak-otak dan macam-macam lagilah yang dari Muar. Rasalah kot.

Taste? Okaylah, still boleh improve lagi. But papepun, CKT dah boleh buang dalam my list “What to eat next”. Oh Mee Bandung terbaik. Sedap.

2011-01-24T16:52:00.001+08:00

Im craving for ayam penyet this few weeks. The other day I went to Waroeng Penyet for dinner. Still, cant take that craving away. So yesterday we went to Ayam Bakar Wong Solo at Shah Alam.

Heard that this one is better than other ayam penyet restorant. Why not give it a try right?

Read some of tips from other foursquare user that their services quite slow. But yesterday after 10 minutes my foods has been served completely. Oh, but their forget the mineral water. Still, slow.

I ordered 1 set of Empal Sapi (RM10.90) and 1 set of Ayam Penyet (RM10.90) come with mineral water, Jus Alpukat (RM7) and Gado-gado (RM7.50)

For my experience, I don't prefer Wong Solo, but he did enjoy the ayam penyet as he said it’s tastier. At least I know which to choose if I still craving for ayam penyet. Ask me now? YES, Im still craving for it. Gonna hunt Ayam Penyet Ria and Ayam Penyet AP next week.

A Progress In A Life

2011-01-19T15:40:00.001+08:00

You tell me I've changed, but that's not such a bad thing. If I never changed, then my life would never go anywhere. If you can't handle my change, then you can't handle the fact that my life is going somewhere, and yours isn't. And I don't need people in my life who want my life it not go anywhere; I need people in my life who will be happy for when I progress.

FootNote: Take it or leave it.

Aaahh-mazing Race at Malacca

2010-12-14T13:22:00.000+08:00

Just after few weeks joining this new company, I was given an opportunity to join their teambuilding at Melaka.

We left Shah Alam at 7.15am. Thanks God I arrived at the perfect time. I was late, damn late to be exact. And I am supposed to be the leader in the bus, and I’m late. Can you imagine that? Bad reputation. LOL.

View from my room

My room. Sharing with Mai.

So, we arrived Melaka, check in at Renaissance Hotel, Melaka. First things that we did were meeting. Yes, meeting. This is the first time I went for teambuilding with start with meeting.

Oh it was their annual meeting. I heard if we achieve the target, next year team building is at South Korea. Woohoo!! If I stay longer, I might go there too. *cross finger*

After 3 hours of meeting, it lunch time. Buffet. Love it so much. So many choices. From Malay to Western foods, from Chinese to Indian foods. One plate to three plates. Then once finish, I took another plate. Now I know where comes the 3 kgs. LOL.

My gang for the ah-mazing race.

After lunch AMAZING RACE. I don’t fancy about the amazing race tho. Walking half of Melaka, oh my. Okay, let’s just followed ‘em.

Here are some pictures that I managed to snap. I am lazy to copy it from Facebook. Overall it was fun. After the amazing race, we had dinner. Its Chinese cuisine. As I said earlier I am lazy to put the pictures of the night, as I guess none of it I was in. Too bad right?

White Lies

2010-12-13T10:14:00.002+08:00

The white lies – tipu sunat.

Sometimes or most everyday we tend to use white lies. They used it for some reason, to make it look good or more dramatic.

But if let say you used it frequently and the other person know the truth, I guess the white lies will make someone become a liar. A good liar perhaps.

Oh oh, this is just my opinion. Sorry if I offended you.

Till then.

At the moment, I guess.

I never think about this. How can this person have such an idea to make foods more awesome even the taste same.

I am sure, so sure gonna do this one day, or maybe this weekend.

Oh oh, I went to his/her blog. Haha, sorry im a bit confused.

I Want To

2010-12-10T16:12:00.000+08:00

Feel like I wanna update some entry but too bad I have no idea what to bring up here.

I browsing my pictures gallery in the iPhone, nahh, nothing that I can post up here. Oh I have one entry, Ice Room, but I think I don’t have any idea what to put there. I guess later would be nice.

I feel like I wanna blog about something but then something hold me back. Nahh never mind, I better keep it to myself rather than hurt someone so badly. We never knew what would he/she feel about it right.

Well, I guess I need to do some blog hoping so that I have some idea, mood or even energy to blog about something.

Till then.

When I Think Things

2010-12-09T09:53:00.001+08:00

I said:

I want to stop fighting. I want us both to be happy so badly. I don't want to let go. I don't know where to start anymore. We have to work on so many things in our lives. I am so mixed up inside. I don't know what to feel. When I'm happy, you're secretly sad. I hate that you're hiding that from me. It's killing me inside that I don't know what to do anymore. I'm such a wreck and I am so sorry for putting more stress on you. I don't want to cry anymore.

Sincerely,
Rara

Rara eats: Pak Li Kopitiam

Semalam lepas konvo my sister, kteorang satu family pergilah lunch kat Pak Li, Seksyen 7, Shah Alam. Actually I da suggest makan nasi kandar since macam lapar sangat, but then since my sister nak makan Nasi Ayam Lemon, so we went to Pak Li.

Dari minggu lepas lagi, I da cravings nasi goreng kampong. So masa lepak kat Santai, Kota Damansara, I order lah nasi goreng kampong, sekali tu pedas gila sampai the boyfie pun tak boleh makan.

So I thought this time I’m going to enjoy the nasi goreng kampong nicely, so I ordered the same menu kat Pak Li dengan harapan dapat yang tak pedas dan sedap untuk dimakan.

Lepas smorang dah dapat their dish, akhirnya sampai jugak. Sekali tengok macam dah tahu je pedas ni. Masuk satu suap, SURRENDER. Spicy, Pedas. Same je macam kat Santai tu. Memang takle blah.

Minum je lah air, since I ordered two glass of barley. I asked mom to complain to them when she went off to the cashier. Guess what she said to them.

(M: Mom ; W: Waiter)

M: Nasi goreng kampong tak sedap. Pedas.
W: Apaaaa? Sedap?
M: Tak sedap. Pedas.
W: Mane adaa pedas, biasa saja.
M: U pergi rasalah, pergi makan itu nasi. Tak boleh makan tau.
W: Saya mana boleh makan, itu customer punya. Itu normallah, mana ade pedas punya.
M: @%#^*$*^&*^&$ *pay the bills* Lumur kat muka kang, baru tahu pedas ke tak *membebel sorang*

I just laughed at mom. I asked my sister too did she really said that. Sist angguk. Cayalah mak aku nie. Went out to the car, and saw these couple also having the same dish as mine, pun tak habis jugak. Confirmla kan memang pedas.

Kesimpulannya, memang I takkan lepak Pak Li Kopitiam lagi in future. Full stop.

Awal Muharram 1432

2010-12-06T23:55:00.000+08:00

Selamat menyambut Tahun Baru 1432, salam maal hijrah. Apa azam baru?

Jangan tanya I, azam tahun lepas pun banyak yang tak tertunai. Satu daripadanya nak sambung belajar. Patutnya da masuk dah tapi sebab takde rezeki. Kerja pun terumbang ambing, macam mana nak konsentrate on studykan?

Jadi, azam tahun baru ni, nak tunaikan azam-azam tahun lepas. Ada jugak sikit-sikit untuk azam baru tahun ni seperti cari kerja yang lebih bagus dan kearah bidang yang disukai seperti bidang customer services?

Silalah list down azam-azam tahun lepas yang tak tertunai lagi. =)

The Social Network

2010-12-06T14:29:00.000+08:00

It's been long time I didn't update about movies, it not that I don't watch any movies, it just I am lazy to update it. So today, here it is.

Everyone have Facebook right? Does everyone know how was Facebook invented?

If you wanna know how the founders of Facebook get an idea to build this site, please watch this movie. For me I found it so interesting. I’m sure I’m gonna watch it again for second time.

Synopsis:

On a fall night in 2003, Harvard undergrad and computer programming genius Mark Zuckerberg sits down at his computer and heatedly begins working on a new idea. In a fury of blogging and programming, what begins in his dorm room soon becomes a global social network and a revolution in communication. A mere six years and 500 million friends later, Mark Zuckerberg is the youngest billionaire in history... but for this entrepreneur, success leads to both personal and legal complications. Written by Columbia Pictures

Thanks to JomSocial for the free tickets too. We enjoyed it till the end.

I gave out 5/5. If you expect this movie some kind of funny movie, don’t watch it. If you expect this movie gonna blow out your mind, go watch it. I guess it depends on individual. As boyfie’s friend comment, she doesn’t like this movie. BECAUSE YOU EXPECT IT TOO MUCH. Open your mind, open your heart so that you know what will you expect it. Till then, Enjoice.

Rara eats: Char Kuey Teow Auntie Gemok

2010-11-29T16:45:00.001+08:00

Selalu nampak my Foursquare friends check in at this venue. I was wondering what the heck is this venue. So I goggle it around and found the shop. Restoran Jamal.

Kat kedai mamak tu ada few stalls, and one of it is Char Kuey Teow. Kalau kat foursquare sila carik venue Char Kuey Teow Auntie Gemok. Siapalah yang bagi nama macam nikan?

The CKT was okaylah. Adalah sikit rasa-rasa CKT kat Penang tu. There are two choices. Small RM4.00 and Big is RM4.50. On the other when I was really craving for it, I took the big plate. Habis pulak tu. Lapar sangat.

Lepas makan CKT, still rasa lapar lagi, so I ordered Taufu Bakar, RM3.50 ada 3 pieces. Lepas tu rasa lapar lagi, tapi sebab kena control sikit, so I decide to come again in future.

Other than CKT, ade jugak stall satay, roti nan, mee kari, yong tau fu. I must come again to try out other dish. Nampak sedap.

Rara eats: Burger Royale

2010-11-23T14:30:00.000+08:00

Burger Royale located at Cova Square. Kalau sesiapa yang tau kat mana SEGI College, for sure tahu kat mana Cova Square.

Burger Royale offers combo deals in their menu consist of burger, fries and drink with a reasonable price. You can add on extra cheese if you want too. The patties were homemade and not same like usual burger. They have mutton burger. YES, mutton.

On that day, we ordered Double mutton burger + fries + drink and single mutton burger + fries + drink. Total is about less than RM20. I guess, I might go there again.

Week-end

2010-11-22T16:02:00.000+08:00

Weekend was awesome I guess.

Poco-poco on Thursday. Futsal on Friday. Shout! Awards on Saturday. Lunch date with #makangeng on Sunday. Complete.

I dah start jogging last weekend. Since my body makin kembang dan chubby, I decide untuk pergi jogging after work.

Kat office ade treadmill. Tapi sebabkan still malu untuk exercise di office, I bet bulan-bulan yang akan datang je lah.

Semalam when I tried to sarung my boxer, it turns to be hot pants. Not good, not good.

This morning try pakai my fav blue stripes kemeja for work, kat pergelangan tangan dah ketat. Oh tidak!

I thought I going to lost some weight, but maybe dalam mimpi jelah. Now I know why, 2 times jogging, 3 times nasi lemak ayam. Not good, not good.

I’ve been craving for Nasi Lemak Ayam. Not sure why, but maybe trying to get the best Nasi Lemak Ayam ever.

Oh, I found one spot for Nasi Lemak with Ayam kruk kruk. Thanks to Aina for introducing me this place. Yes, I’m going there next week. Once a week. I hope.

Today, no jogging session for me as I sprain my ankle yesterday. Need to heal it first so that it won’t get worst in future.

Till then.
