Guilty Pleasures

Spent a weekend in Penang basically just eating and taking pictures. We had so, so much to eat. I don't think I'll forget the amazing rojak we had. Can't wait to go back for more.

Small little appams filled with either corn or banana. This lot was all mine :D

Taken at the Chew Jetty.

Fried egg with oysters

At Straits Quay

Really good brioche from the Four Seasons bakery at Straits Quay.

Then for 3 days straight I was out with the girls and we just kept eating.

Strawberry crispy butter bread. So, so yummy. We were kinda blown away by it because we really didn't know what to expect. The chocolate sauce we drizzled over it was just wonderful.

Finally got to try mango sticky rice! If I make this myself I might just drown everything in coconut milk.

Thai green tea curry. Still thinking about this but I've had enough to last 'till the end of the year I think.

Went to Daily Fix in Malacca for this big breakfast.

And the pandan pancakes of course.

'Twas a pretty good hair day.

And we ended our 3-day food meet up with this Thai tea lava toast.

I'm now on a 2-week apple and oats diet until mummy's birthday dinner because I need to fit into something that I bought xD

Wish me luck!

To Date

Very happy to say that I've settled nicely into the new place. Everything's set up and unpacked and it finally feels like home. Everyone's very friendly here. So helpful. Traffic isn't that bad. Places are close by. We get everything we need. The only downside is that there's no cinema here. Which means I'll be traveling up north frequently now and I can't wait. This semester doesn't exactly seem like a particularly busy one so am really looking forward to some traveling. Just finished watching Northanger Abbey. Was checking my hair with the phone's front cam and one thing led to another and I took about twelve selfies just like that. Heh. I tell you the things I do when I'm alone. Completely hooked on Downton Abbey. Finished season four and half of season three yesterday. Can't wait for season five to start. Also waiting for season eleven of Grey's Anatomy. I have unlimited WiFi. No more quota nonsense so have been ca...

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...

It's Dr., Now!

It's been 10 days since my final professional exam & announcement of my results. I'm a doctor. & though I've been studying my entire life to reach this stage it still feels so surreal. It still feels like I need to head back south to continue with classes. Like I'm still on some semester break that is going to come to an end. Every so often throughout my day it hits me; I don't have to study anymore - for now at least. But then this though gets clouded over by other things & I forget. I have to constantly keep reminding myself that I've made it. I've actually, finally made it this far. As daunting as this whole new chapter - that's about to begin - is, part of me is excited to start. I'm excited to see where my future takes me, not only in which field of medicine I decide to pursue but also to which place. Big cities are out of the question for me. I realized, over the past couple of days, that since I've left th...
