Hello, It's 2016

It's almost the middle of the month already and the year just started!
Things are going alright. 
Got some really nice presents for Christmas :D
And a new phone to start off the new year. The Huawei G8. It's so nice! Just having a little trouble getting a proper matte gel case for it. 
For about a week now I've been wanting to blog about so many things but now that I'm actually typing, nothing's coming to mind.
I made scones for breakfast this morning. Was going through pictures of cakes and muffins on Instagram right after I woke up and was craving for something sweet. So I figured since I can't buy it I might as well bake it. Scones, apricot jam and clotted cream. I've had about 5 of those since this morning and it's almost 7 in the evening now. 
Gave the doggies a bath. They're both knocked out. Opus looks so much like Toothless now it's so difficult to be cross with her whenever she jumps all over us at home.
Can't stop thinking about all the exams I'll have to take once I start my housemanship. It's going to be one hell of a ride.
Been watching this series called The Royals. So scandalous. Anarchy in the Monarchy. That's the tagline. And their British accent omg. So torn between William Moseley and Tom Austen. They're both so damn good looking my goodness.
Got my Vaio back yesterday. Apparently the camera has gone kaput and it's nearly 500 bucks to fix. The technician reformatted it and videos are playing just fine now. Really hope this lasts me another 4 to 5 years or so. Can't afford to keep spending unnecessarily. 
Other than that things are pretty much the same. Not doing too great health wise but yeah that's part and parcel of postings I suppose. 
Hope my birthday this year is another memorable one. About a month or so to go :D
More next month perhaps.
:)

To Date.

I've recently been nominated for the Liebster Blog Award thanks to a friend of mine I've only known via Facebook for some years now. The blog post for that is still being drafted. I've been posed some pretty tricky questions /;) Haven't been blogging as frequently as I used to coz I didn't bring my laptop back home this time round. Didn't think I'd have much use for it. Things have been a little...crazy here to say the least. I'm actually twenty-one now. Though I must say, the word 'freedom' was never synonymous with this age. All I ever related to this milestone was responsibility. Funny. It's been such a rollercoaster ride of emotions. I could never completely describe it. I've been thinking about how I've celebrated my birthdays all these years. Two birthdays I celebrated away from home. My eighteenth, which was in the UK with Aunty M and Uncle T, and my twentieth, which was in Johor with my classmates and a once...

Foodie Review #1

Was in Malacca early this morning with a friend to get some things done. Decided to head on over to The Daily Fix Cafe along Jonker Street for brunch.  Because we were both on a (very, very, very) tight budget (but still wanted to check it out) we ordered two breakfast meals and shared them. First up we have the Pandan Pancakes with Gula Melaka. The picture doesn't do it any justice, unfortunately.  The pancake itself was soft and fluffy and had just the right amount of pandan flavour of which we caught wafts as it was served. Was pleasantly surprised as I cut into it and found the brown sugar filling. The pancakes absorbed the brown sugar syrup so occasionally I bit into chunks of brown sugar. The coconut on the side made it that much richer and the vanilla ice-cream sort of brought it all together. Perfect if you're looking to try something different with local flavours. Then we had the Eggs Benedict. This was a bit of a tease because the bacon looked so bloo...

Speed Reading...

...one of the many things I've acquired over the many years through my love affair with books. I just put down Tracy Anne Warren's 'His Favourite Mistress'. And I scrunched up my nose and literally went "Awww" after reading the finals lines of the book. A typical romance novel, set during and after World War II, although the war in itself was not described. It starts off with the seventeen-year-old heroine, Gabrielle, going after a man in vengeance for killing her father.  Or so she thought.  In actual fact, this man she goes after, Rafe, was attacked by her father and whatever happened was the exact opposite of what she was told. So she sneaks up on him in his study one night dressed as a man and points a gun at him and says his time has come only to realize that the person she's about to shoot isn't Rafe. It's Wyvern. His wit, charm and good looks catch her off guard and he manages to get a hold of her gun, disarming her just as ...
