Playlist Friday: Something about the way you look tonight - Elton John

I know technically it is not Friday but I didn't want to miss to post a playlist Friday for the final Friday of the year. I love most of Elton John's song, and this one is one of them. Every time I listen to this song it just reminds me of loved ones and makes me warm inside.




Sometimes this song makes me sad but I truly enjoy it. :) I was listening to it a couple times in the last few days and thought I should share this. :D I am sure you all know this song. 2012 is coming to an end and time just fly by so fast. I have not been a good blogger this year but I will try again next year.

I hope everyone is having a great last weekend of 2012 and may we meet again in 2013! Signing off for now. Be back tomorrow (hopefully :P).

To people who love dance

I love this video. I love to dance. Period. :)

Merry Christmas ♥

Merry Christmas and happy holidays everyone!! I hope everyone is safe and warm with their loved ones, family and friends. To another wonderful end of the year and may the next year bring more happiness, joy and luck to us. ♥♥ 

Google

I want to share some of my favorite Christmas songs with you. I love December because I get to play and listen to Christmas songs...it makes me feel happy (don't get me wrong I even listen to Christmas songs in July :P).

Saw this song on YouTube and I kinda like it. :)





And of course Mariah Carey :D




Merry Christmas everyone, blogger friends, real friends, twitter friends. To a wonderful 2013! Be safe this holiday!!

Playlist Friday: Hawk Nelson - Right Here

Hello lovely peeps!! Sorry I have been away for so long....unplanned vacation is longer than I thought. I was suppose to be home by Monday but I think as this post goes up I might be on my way home. We are driving and it takes about 5-6 hours. In recent years, moving vehicles (cars, plane etc) have not been good to me. It makes me hate going on road trips. Maybe I am turning into a dragon slayer (fairy tail joke XD) hahaha...

Anyway I just want to share with you a song that's been playing on my iPod for awhile. Since I have not edit the songs in my list all I have are old songs...but it is good. Although that means I am not up to date with the new songs hitting the airwaves. Internet have also been hard to come by...I have tons of photos I am trying to edit with a software that my cousin gave me. I do prefer picmonkey more though :D.




I don't remember how I got to know of Hawk Nelson but after listening to one song I began to listen to more and more. I like most of their songs that I listened to. It's kinda up my alley. I hope you enjoy this song.

I hope I make it home this weekend!! I have been without tv for more than a week and without proper access to internet for almost a week!! Arrghhh...but life is awesome. I almost got sick too, eating all these local fruits. AHAHAHA..I love them!

P.S oh my grandpa was admitted last Monday but he is feeling a lot better now. :)

Have a great weekend everyone!

Wedding: A little Gangnam style?

Attended my cousin's wedding last weekend and it was super fun! This is a little teaser of the wedding!

Trying to edit some photos of the wedding but there are a ton to choose from! Internet is hard to come by here too so I have to wait till I am back home to edit those photos. Hope I can get my hands on some photos from the photographer (he's the guy in the middle) so I can use some of his photos and post them on here. :D My cousins and uncle are awesome enough to do this gangnam style shot. It was tiring and hot but super fun!

Playlist Friday: N' Sync - Girlfriend

Happy Friday everyone! Time flies when you are having fun! Which is so true. I am still recovering from the tiredness that is called a wedding ;) and I have another wedding next weekend! I is kinda exciting since my cousin has asked me to be her bridesmaid. So I am kinda excited and nervous at the same time. I hope to get a ton of pictures of that day.

Been listening to some oldies lately (haha, not that oldies) rediscovering songs I love. One of them is N' Sync Girlfriend. I like the version with Nelly in it.



Have been a very bad blogger lately! I need a new new year resolution to blog more next year! Can't you believe it's almost new year!!? I hope you all have a good weekend!

Playlist Friday: Beautiful in white - Shane Filan

Happy Friday everyone!!! It's WEDDING day!! Not my wedding of course :) I hope I get to share pictures. Sorry for neglecting this blog for a long time. I have been so busy!!! I hope I can get some pics up and share now that I am relieved of all duties :P

I love this song from the first time I heard it. It's a wedding song of course :D I want to dedicate this to my sister. Congratulations little sister. I love you.




Hope you all have a wonderful Friday and weekend!

Playlist Friday: Lene Marlin - Unforgivable Sinner

Hey peeps, I hope by the time this is posted my internet is back up and working! Last Saturday Thor was angry at me and struck down our phone line (is what I think happened). The phone line is dead and internet is kaput. We are getting it fixed at the moment! I feel so lost without technology and internet! I envy the me that did not know internet years ago. Although without internet I got a lot of things done :P. I miss my baby though. *cries*




This song is one of my favorite, for some time now. It's been on my computer, laptop and now iPod. :) The song is kind of sad to me but I still love it. Something appealing to me. :) Do you have any favorite song from Lene Marlin?

Hope your week is a whole lot better than mine!!

Playlist Friday: Kat Deluna ft Elephant man - Whine Up

It's another Friday. Days seems to go really fast these days. I am currently feeling a little under the weather so lately I have been listening to upbeat songs. Dance songs always makes me feel better :). Not to mention my body is aching from my belly dancing class..haha.




One of the songs I love listening to is Kat Deluna's whine up. Makes you wanna dance! I love her, she's so cute, feisty and petite and adorable! I wish I can dance as well as she does...she also have a nice looking body. LOL girl crush :P

What are you up to this weekend? I am waiting for a soccer/football match Saturday night~! Have a great weekend everyone!

The Doodles

Happy Movember everyone!! :) It has been too long and I missed playlist Friday because last week was hectic! I am glad it is over but I kind of miss it too :D I guess next time I will not take things for granted ;). I got an awesome view too...met 2 French men, real ones!! :P I think the language is sexy and to hear them talk in front of me is pretty awesome. :) So...today I just want to share with you my favorite all time thing from Google, the doodles! I am sure you have seen this :)

Bram Stoker's 165th birthday

Yeah Google always makes me happy :). Now I need to steal pictures of the musical show that I was a part of last Saturday so I can share with you guys. I didn't get any good pictures because I don't know why I was being such a lazy ass... :P I shall post some pictures as soon as I pester my friends.

Have a great day!

Playlist Friday: Ryan Cabrera - 40 kinds of sadness

Yes Ryan, you give me 40 kinds of sadness. :) I love a guy who can strum a guitar and sing his heart out. I fell in love with Ryan from the first time I heard his song. I can't remember which but he always have a special place in my heart.




How was your week? I hope you guys have a wonderful weekend ahead. No sadness, just happiness. :)

Essence

On my birthday weekend my sister and I decided to go out and check out this mall that has been under construction (and still is!! They are adding a hotel to the existing mall!) because I heard there was a lot to see there. Shops opening up and stuff. And to my surprise I discover this.

Ok if you follow me on Twitter you know I have been pestering my friend to check out the Essence booth to see if they sell their gel liners because I want to get my hands on them and no one has ever been to the booth. I heard a lot of good things about some of their products and I own a few which I loved! I won those in a giveaway last year. I love eyeliners and I always gravitate towards them. Since essence eyeliners are cheap and affordable enough, I decided to try them out.

I was looking for the sun club collection but they only had the regular line available. And some of the products are sold out but there was a variety to choose from. :) I was a happy camper. I wanted to try some of their nail polish but I didn't want to go crazy all at once so I will be back to get some. The colors are pretty so it is hard to make up my mind!

I posted this picture the day I bought them on instagram. I will do a post with swatches later. I need to take nicer pictures. :D I ended up getting the purple gel liner (I forgot the name of it), an eyeliner in Teddy, a metallic eyeliner in black knight and a lipgloss in trendsetter. My sister got the smokey eye kit. She said she didn't like it because it is not dark enough. I didn't get a chance to try it but we shall see.

I can't wait to go back because I heard a lot of people really like the XXXL lip gloss and I am curious. :P I use to love lip gloss but now I am so obsessed with red lipsticks! It is crazy. So if you want to send me something send me red lipsticks or eyeliners. LOL :P

Have you tried any Essence products?

Playlist Friday: Jessica Simpson - When you told me you love me

Happy Friday! Do you realize Fridays comes ever so fast every week??! It is concerning to me cause the days are just winding down too fast for my liking. I love weekends (especially the football!) but I don't like days and weeks to come knocking so fast. I need to savor the time spent with people more.

I was listening to this song most of this week, my playlist on my iPod is kind of ancient so I am reminiscing :P. It is one of my favorite song from Jessica Simpson. Trouble was I couldn't find a video for this song. I don't even know if there was ever a video. I love it still. Not to say that I am heart broken but if I ever was this song would probably make me cry buckets. Let's hope I don't have to cry buckets eh...




Jessica is one sexy lady back then, now she is a hot mama. :D I have not yet seen a picture of her baby though. Haha...but she was uber sexy back then wasn't she??! :)

What is everyone up to this weekend? I am hoping the weather is treating you right. Hugs and kisses.

Sunday night chatter

What did you do last night? Were you watching the stars? No, I was watching this.

Print screen from last night leap of faith. :) Felix Baumgartner jump from space! It was amazing...it was super awesome! It was crazy! He actually landed on both feet. :D If you did not see it you are missing out!! 

This was the jump. It was amazing and wow. I am so glad I witness it. :) Thanks to my friend B who told me about it and we watched it together. :D Hope you had a great weekend!

Think Pink!

I usually do this the beginning of the month but I totally forgot, it is Pinktober month! and my birthday month too, CLK and I that is. And a whole lot of our friends too. Crazy that a bunch of people I know are born in October Pinktober (my aunt have the same birthday as me and his son have the same birthday as my sister - 8th October Pinktober!).

via

If you are wondering why is it Pinktober (I hope you know what I am talking about) it is because October is breast cancer awareness month. :) I am proud to be sharing my birthday month with an awareness that every women and men should know about, how to detect it early and prevent it at all cost. Well prevention is better than cure is what they say and knowing how to check for it, doing breast examination is a must for all your ladies out there. If you don't want to do it let your boyfriend/fiancee/husband do it. I am sure they will be happy to feel up examine your breasts for you.

via

My aunt was diagnosed with breast cancer and she passed away years ago. I have friends that found lumps in their breasts and thankfully they were harmless. It is crucial that everyone know how to check for lumps and if they feel like their breasts are changing consult a doctor. I do check my breasts every time I am in the shower or in front of a mirror. This blog has some interesting facts and information about breast cancer.

So all of this October or Pinktober, think pink!! I know there are a lot of awareness programs, runs, walks, products, organization that raises funds all through the month to raise money for breast cancer research. I will try my best to do my part and I hope you do too.

Pink!

I wish I had pink lipstick or something but I found out I lack the color pink in my makeup collection :P. I guess that's one reason to go shopping for makeup eh? :P And since it is also the month of Halloween madness, I went a little crazy with the font. :D Don't worry it will go away once Halloween passes over us. 

Have a berry pink weekend everyone. Remember think PINK!

Playlist Friday: Shayne Ward - Breathless

I use to listen to this song endlessly - over and over, one after another. Since Shayne is also hot and have a really sexy voice, it didn't really matter to me if I was listening to the songs 1000000 times a day. I don't know how my roommates thought of it but they never complained either. :P This is one of my favorite song. Although I am not very fond of his new music. I might have to give it a listen through again. I think I prefer his ballads :D.




I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! Anyone going to a Halloween party this weekend?? Send me some candy please! :P

Cravings

My sister and I went to Bing! to have a mini birthday celebration. We shared the food because it was kinda late at night. XD

Playlist Friday: The Clash - Should I stay or should I go

So I have been listening to a part of this song for the longest time and I never know who sang the song. And now I do!! :D It is a fun song although I think it's kinda like a breakup song, should I stay or should I go? LOL




Have a great weekend everyone!~

Football update: Champions League

Arsenal 3 v 1 Olympiacos

The last of the 2 game week came on Thursday morning for me (245am) and I did not stay up to watch it. Simply because the last game I saw they lost haha, and I made a mistake of laying on my bed waiting for the match to start. If I did not, I would probably be glued in front of the tv.

I was kinda sad because they won. I wanted to watch the game where they win and not lose :P. I was on my iPod on the EuroSport app and first half they were level at 1-1. I think that made me even lazier to get up and watch the second half, because I was afraid it was gonna end up in a draw and it would be a waste for me to watch the game. XD you know sleep is kinda important.

Podolski and Ramsey scored in the second half, and I think it might be Ramsey's first goal of the season. I was so relieve! meaning they won the game. I think it puts them on the top of Group B. I hope they stay that way and do not end up meeting any teams from the Premier League (Chelsea, Manchester Utd or Manchester City).

Another good game boys! Now if only you can apply this method when you play against Manchester Utd, Chelsea or Manchester City, that would be awesome.

Arsenal

More snacks and yummy cakes.

Just some snack pictures for a few months ago. :)

The picture of the seaweed snack above is made from wanton or eggroll wrappers (I don't know if it's the same thing?) and the seaweed is place in between and they are cut into strips and fried. My sister made that.

More pictures I took of snacks and cakes. We made some of the cakes in the last pictures, the ones with the pretty designs are all bought though. :P I have yet to learn how to make those.

The 'kuih'

This was meant to be posted like 2 months ago and things happened, I got lazy then you know...procrastination. Bla bla...I don't have a good excuse but I did edited them to make them look nicer. :P I think I was a little disappointed because I did not take as many pictures as I did during eid this year as years before. I don't know why but I felt kinda empty and sad. But even though it has been a few months it's never too late right? :)

I woke up early in the morning and took pictures of all the cookies or biscuits. Kuih is the Malay word for cookies, well actually I think it is cake. I might be wrong so don't quote me :). I would have to look that up actually ;).

I have a few more pictures to share. I hope I get them up sooner and not wait another 2 months. Haha.

Football update: Day 6

Arsenal v Chelsea

So Arsenal 6th game was really a sad one for me. They lost to Chelsea and it really sucked. At first I thought it was an own goal but they credited the goal to Mata, which it was Mata's free kick. Still I thought they didn't play that well. I hope they do make up for it this Wednesday when they play against Olympiacos in the Champions League.

Arsenal

I was a little disappointed but I was so glad Liverpool won their first game and Manchester United lost to Tottenham Hotspur. HAHA I live on other peoples suffering. :P

Playlist Friday: Lonestar - Amazed

This is one of my favorite love song. I wanted this to be our song but I think I must find another one. This one is associated with something that is pretty funny. XD

Every time our eyes meet

This feeling inside me

Is almost more than I can take

Baby when you touch me

I can feel how much you love me

And it just blows me away

I've never been this close to anyone or anything

I can hear your thoughts

I can see your dreams ...

League Cup: Arsenal v Coventry City

Last night was the 3rd round of the Capitol One cup (I think it was the Carling cup before?) and Arsenal played at home against Coventry City. I knew it was going to be a good game but I was really pissed that they didn't play it live on tv. Come on Astro!

Anyway I was happy that Arshavin get to start and Chamakh was on the bench. A lot of the players that played in the game was not the usual first 11 players and I was excited to watch Martinez, Yennaris and Miquel on the pitch. I hope I get to watch the replay. They freakin' won 6-1!

Arsenal

Olivier Giroud finally scored his 1st goal on his 7th appearance for the club. I was so excited about this. :D He has been trying to score and finally got it. I hope this bring him luck in the games to come. Alex 'The-Ox' scored an awesome goal too after Giroud missed the penalty. As I predicted Arshavin gets his first goal this season, Miquel added one and Walcott scored 2 to make up 6 for Arsenal. Overall I am happy with the score line. Coventry got a consolation goal in the 78' minute.

The fourth round is set to be played end of October where Arsenal will meet Reading. I hope they will do as good as they did in the 3rd round. The good news is Manchester United will have to meet Chelsea. So one less team to worry about! :D

Happy Birthday Google!

So this is what I found when I went to the Google website :D

It is Google's 14th birthday! Happy big 1-4 Google :D Can't believe you are 14! I need me some Google cake.

Tv Date: Go on

Or as CLK calls it 'GoOn' LOL. So I remember when FRIENDS was the bomb and then FRIENDS ended and my life became a dim light bulb. So when Matt le Blanc came back with Episodes I was so excited and hoped it was somewhat as good and funny as FRIENDS but I was somewhat disappointed. When I was browsing through tv.com website and saw Matthew Perry has a show coming up I thought 'Well maybe Matthew Perry could be a lot funnier that Matt, I mean we all love Chandler Bing.' And I was right!

Matthew Perry's new show 'Go On' is pretty funny. Might not be as funny as FRIENDS but pretty close. His character in that show is named Ryan but whenever I watch that show it always reminded me of Chandler. Seriously. Even CLK agreed with me. XD

via

There are a few new shows I was looking forward to watching this time of year but Go On wasn't one of them. I am so glad I did because I am loving it! I hope this show survives the year and gets a second season like Community. :) If you haven't watched this you should. I dare ya. ;) Have a great Monday!

Football: START!

Okay so football season have started like a month or something but they have only played 5 games + 1 UEFA Champions League game so it's still in the beginning stages. :D (Yes I am talking about Europe football or as some may know as soccer.) If it is still not clear I am an Arsenal supporter and always will be :D (Unless they all move to Barcelona and they start to suck maybe I might change my mind :P)

via

This is the latest standing I could find so far:

via

After the Sunday games, Manchester United goes to 2nd and Arsenal goes to 5th with Manchester City to 7th. They are only separated by goal difference. Thanks to the Arsenal v Southampton game last week which ended with a 6 - 1 win. They are currently still unbeaten with 2 wins and 3 draws. Today's game is kinda important cause they are playing against last season winner. And most of Manchester City's players are ex-Gunners. Booo~~~! :P

Since they have lost Robin Van Persie and Alex Song at the start of the season, Arsenal gained 3 valuable players: Lukas Podolski, Santi Cazorla and Olivier Giroud. The partnership between Cazorla and Podolski is pretty awesome so far and looked like they have played together for years. I hope they can bring some magic to the Emirates this season. I think this could be one of the best teams they have since the Fab4 (Fabregas, Hleb, Flamini, & Rosicky). I hope they play Marouane Chamakh and Andrey Arshavin this season. I miss watching them play.

They started off really good in the Champions League beating Montpellier 2-1. I hope they keep up their winning streak in the Champions League cause it will be a pretty tough battle. And Giroud still need to start scoring :D I can't wait for his first goal this season.

Manchester City 1 - 1 Arsenal

Playlist Friday: Daniel Bedingfield - If you're not the one

Happy Friday everyone!! Been trying not to slack on my playlist Friday y'all. :D This week I want to share with you one of my favorite love song. Well one of my favorite :D I have a ton!

When I was in school there was a guy that I had a total crush on. Okay I must tell ya, he was not the most good looking guy on campus nor was he the hottest guy but I don't know why I had such a crush on him. My bff at the time knew about it and we would stalk him (yes! literally stalk him!! LOL). We were on the same faculty and out faculty was pretty small and at that time our campus was just starting to come together so there was no other students around, which was kinda sad cause I would totally go flirtin' around other guys from other faculties (I heard the mechanical engineering students were pretty cute!). Okay to make the story short he knew I was stalking him and his friends knew and he would sometimes smile at me. OMG! my heard would go crazy!! HAHAHA thinking about it now I feel kinda dumb. LOL.

So anyway I would listen to this song over and over again. HAHA like a love sick puppy (ok it WASN'T love obviously) but it was embarrassing when some of my housemates knew about it. :P It makes a fun story though. I think I liked him A LOT because he was tall...very tall. I think he was about 6'1". One of my guy bff would often tell me he was over 6' too and I am not swooning over him. Haha...we'll I love my bff :) he is amazing and keeps calling me 'shorty' cause I am obviously shorter than him. Hah!

But anyway enough of the silly stories. I hope you enjoy the song! Definitely is a sad love song I think. But I still love it!





p.s. Oh we never went out or anything. Which was not so bad. Did chatted with him online a couple times. Kinda turned me off. HAHAHAHA.

Playlist Friday: Natasha Bedingfield - Unwritten

Happy Friday everyone! Seems like Friday comes and goes and comes again!! Crazy huh?! So how was your week??!!

This week I want to share one of the first song from Natasha Bedingfield that I love. :D I think it really is a pick up song :) if you are feeling down, definitely listen to this song. :)




What other Natasha Bedingfield do you love? I think her songs are pretty catchy. :D Have a wonderful weekend!

Sunday randoms

Hey y'all...how's your Sunday goin'? I heard that football season has started?! Mine started about 4 weeks ago :D (talkin' about soccer!). So go (insert your favorite football team here) !! So anyway since CLK supports Green Bay Packers, I say go Packers!! XD hahaha. My dad does too..well that is largely because we lived in Wisconsin for a couple of years and you technically support the local teams (although my dad liked the Chicago Bulls a lot - when they were famous back then). Although I am glad CLK isn't a total football head (not a fanatic- *phew) so missing football isn't such a big deal. I am a crazy Arsenal fan though...I am not a crazy fanatic either but if you wanna talk football (aka soccer) I can talk for hours!!

Anyway enough about football. I don't know a lot about it to save my life :P or hair. Haha...I was just here on Sunday cause I have been MIA for a long time! I have a few pictures to share. My sister have flown back to India a few days back and I miss her a lot. We didn't take a whole lot of photos but we must when she comes back for my sister's wedding in December. She was sad because they lost her luggage and hoping that they find it a.s.a.p.

Random picture we did one night :) This took a really long time to do! But we love how it turned out! Haha...If you are wondering how we did it, this is from an app on iPad/ iPhone. :D

What are you guys doing this fine Sunday?

Playlist Friday: Republica - Ready to go

Happy Friday everyone!! Have you check Google homepage today? It's a tribute to Star Trek. I would post it if I could but head on over to clickety click on the Google icon. So this week I started to work harder for my dance class because I need to tone my upper arm more and my abs. I know I need a lot of time and patience.

I try to practice the shimmy but I could only do it a few minutes rather than 10. One of my favorite song to shimmy to is Republica - Ready to go. It works much better than doing the shimmy with an actual belly dancing music. :P I think it's the sound of the drum and the beat that makes it a lot more awesome.




Do you have a favorite song by Republica? I only know two of their songs and they are both very catchy. Hope you are enjoying your Friday and weekend! Any new tunes you are listening to recently?

p.s Just in case you can't watch the video try listening to the remake version of the same song. I (like most) love the original version better :)

Sleepy cat

Look who I found...

Mojo...sleeping with my sister. XD Tweeted this before my nap.

Playlist Friday: Wondergirls - Like This

It's been awhile since I've posted a playlist Friday but this week I must!! Since a few weeks ago this song has been stuck in my head and I can't help it that the song is very catchy and I love the dance!! Been trying to learn it...I have only mastered a small part of it. HAHAHA...it is hard but fun!! I have to thank YouTube for it. :D And the awesome people who learned it!




I am sure you have heard of Wonder girls (if you haven't, where have you been?!) :D I love their catchy song and dance. Need to learn and teach my belly dancing girls asap. I think it would be fun to learn it. I hope you are having a wonderful Friday and awesome Labor Day weekend. It is my brother's birthday this Sunday, and I remembered he was born on Labor Day weekend! So we will have some yummy chocolate cake!

I have been editing pictures lately so I hope to have it up soon! I have been tweeting and instagram-ing them :P I need to post them here! Have a great day everyone!

Happy Birthday Malaysia!!

55th Merdeka Day 

Got books?

So last week (and the weekend!) I went a little crazy. They had this book fair going on and I didn't even know it! I am glad I found out before it was too late..and thankfully too. If not I would probably spent more than what I intended to spent :P. It was worth it I must say.

These are some of the books that you would see if you step into the area...this is just a section. The other side of the room was romance and other. I didn't really go through that area until the last day. The cheapest book was MYR0.50 (MYR1.00 = USD0.32). These paperback books were sold for MYR3.90 to MYR9.90. I tell ya it was worth every cent. The water damaged books range from MYR1.00 to MYR2.00.

I did not pay attention to the hardcover books until the last day. I mean I couldn't neglect those. They were everywhere. And little did I know, the books without the covers were sold for MYR3.90 and the others are marked but nothing more than MYR9.90. It was like being in a candy store. :D I did not take pictures of the books I bought. I shall do that in the next few posts. I got a James Patterson book for MYR3.90. STEAL!

I love secondhand books. I guess you can call me cheap but I can't justify paying for full price when I can get them at less than half price. :) Unless it is something I really want and I can't find it anywhere else, then I would pay full price for it XD. Do you have a book store that you frequent? I shall start reading again. XD

Playlist Friday: Yellowcard - Only one

Happy Friday everyone!! At least I am hoping it's a Friday where you are. :D I missed last Friday because it was so hectic! I am sorry :). I should schedule these PF so I can never miss a single Friday again!

How is everyone enjoying the Olympic so far? And the Googlympics? LOL I think they are cute! I will update you on those in case you miss any of them~ Today it was interactive Google doodle (go on and play if you havent!).

Today I want to share you my favorite song from a band called Yellowcard. This is my favorite song from them, it kinda reminds me of my single-dateless days where I always wonder weather I will every find my 'only one'. I use to listen to this song everyday, over and over again sometimes. HAHA. Pathetic right? but it is a very catchy songs. If you have not check them out (or heard of them) you should.




How was your week guys? Mine was pretty awesome and sad at the same time. I have some pictures that I will edit and upload this weekend (fingers crossed!). I have been so busy trying to get the house together for the holidays coming up and making cookies! :D Hope your weekend will be awesome!

London 2012

My family have been watching the Olympic every since I could remember. I even remember watching it with my parents in 1992 when we were living with my grandma. It is like a tradition. :D Now that my siblings have grown up we watch it more than my parents do. And I think because of the dashing and attractive men and women :P. My favorite to watch is women volleyball. My sister and I watch aquatics (sometimes with my mom). My sister watch basketball when it's on. Now if my dad was around to watch it with us, he and my mom would watch track and field together. I watch it too sometimes..but most of the time I watch the finals only.

I always make it a must to watch the opening and closing ceremony and see who will be hosting it the next time. I am glad we have repeats of events cause the Olympic this time is really at an odd hour compared to China 4 years ago.

Google is also on the Olympic bandwagon with their Google doodles. :D They are so adorable!

Opening ceremony July 27th

Archery July 28th

Diving July 29th

Fencing July 30th

Aren't they adorable? I am assuming they will come out with a different one everyday (or until they ran out of events for the Olympic :P) so I will keep you posted ;). Did you catch the opening of the Olympics on Friday?

Playlist Friday: All Saints - Never ever

Happy Friday everyone!! I am not gonna miss another Friday...I will try at least :D So today is the opening ceremony of the Olympic 2012 in England. OMG...can't believe 4 years have passed!! I remembered the last olympic...so since I am way ahead of you guys (but I am still writing this in US time - if that makes sense?) the opening ceremony is soooooo late. I am quite sleepy. I think I should just change my location for my blog :P it would be easier. LOL.

So in conjunction of Olympic games being held in Britain (I think is the proper way to say it) today's song is gonna be from a girl group that comes from Britain, All Saints (if I am wrong please correct me). I don't know if you have heard of this group before but I use to love a few songs from them (and I still do! but I don't play them as often). I use to listen to them religiously for months at a time sometimes. I have a playlist for times of months. It is crazy I tell ya. I could listen to some songs for months or a hundred times a day. I am not kidding. You should ask my roommates :P.




Please excuse the crappy video for this song. I love the song, I think they could do better on the video to be honest. I usually have a phase where I listen to songs for long period of time then never listen to them again for years. This song have been playing on the radio recently and make me want to listen to them again. Weird huh? What is your oldies but goodies song(s)? Hope you enjoy my pick this week...it is not bad really. Just don't concentrate on the video :P.

Google Doodle July 23rd

When I click on Google this morning and saw this..it reminds me of the movie Night at the museum :D.

Amelia Earhart's 115th birthday 

I love the movies, the first was better I thought but they are both fun to watch. :D Enjoy!

Quench your thirst

It has been hot lately. And when it is so hot, I usually go to this place near my grandma's house, it's called Swee Kang. If you live in Kuching, you know it is famous for its ABC or shaved ice. Seriously...if I was not fasting, I would go get myself a bowl or two.

Lately this is my favorite. It is called the 'special'. Inside is a variety of fruits and other fun stuff. It usually has watermelon, pineapple, and some jelly things. Other times there are mango, lychee, jack-fruit or grapes. :D Seriously it is very special. I love the pineapple in it even though I dislike eating pineapple alone. It's the sour, sweet taste that makes it yummy-licious! What's your favorite thing to eat on hot (summer) days?

Playlist Friday - Maroon 5: Harder to breath

Playlist Friday Saturday today pays tribute to Maroon 5 because they recently was in KL for their tour (at least I think so). I can't believe I did not go and see sexy man Adam Levine. I remember listening to their song, the first song I heard from them, Harder to breath. After listening to that song I fell in love. It was like love at first song. I even bought that album when it came out! :D That is how much I love that song.

Sorry for posting this a day late, I had a busy Friday cleaning the house cause they are finally done with the kitchen. :D I will post some pictures when I get them edited (which is taking a long a** time). I tried to take a picture a day but some days its just crazy~! And one of my cat was hit by a car today too. It is kinda sad. She is resting in peace now.

So here is the song. I hope you enjoy it as much I did (I still love this song after all these years!)

Playlist Friday: Bryan Adams - Have you ever really loved a woman?

Happy Friday the 13th everyone~! I didn't even realized it was the 13th until I read some tweets saying how bad luck it was. Sure my Friday sucked..but I never believed Friday the 13th was involved. I have had some awesome Friday the 13th before. :D

Today one of my favorite song from Bryan Adams and it's one of the song that guys should listen to ..haha.




I know Chris Daughtry also sung this song on American Idol years back. I love his version too. But then again I have always been a fan of Chris Daughtry :D.





And... look what Google has on its website today.

Gustav Klimit's 150th birthday

Have a wonderful Friday everyone, what is everyone up to for the weekend?
