My trip to MY last year was a just a quick one so I didn't get to visit as much tourist destinations as I wish I could. 😒 However, I got to taste some really great and authentic Malaysian food that I would love to share with you. I am not really great at remembering how these are called so I will just share photos. 😜😜😜

I used to religiously write a Life Lately post during my early blogging years.  It’s not really that I’ve outgrown oversharing about my life in social media, it’s just that I feel like my life these days is kind of boring unlike way back when it used to filled with random shenanigans. Anyway, let me just share a few things that happened lately in bullets. 👱

  • Early January is for Nanay and Ahia’s birthday celebration
  • I have a new addiction: FAKE STICK-ON NAILS. 
  • Still in love with my doggos more than ever. 
  • This year I really wanted to focus on 2 things: FITNESS & SKIN CARE. So help me God.
  • Never closing my doors on new opportunities
  • Most of my batchmates are either getting engaged 💑 / married 👰/ or having babies 👶 while I’m sitting here playing my video games
  • Speaking of video games – RESIDENT EVIL 2 Remake was release last Jan 25 and my 90s ass is shaking with glee

Well that’s all I could think of for now folks. I'll try to be more interesting next time. ✌

Hello Princess 👸,

I know there are a lot of things in your mind right now. It usually happens when you are about to start your week. But this time, it's worst than the last. You were thinking of your mistakes from the past once again. 😓 Whether if it's a missed deadline, an incorrect spelling on your last submitted report, which your boss has been consistently reminding you about. 😓 Or even your break up with your ex that happened ages ago and you still can't over it. 💔

You know what honey it's okay. 💜💙💚💛

It's okay to fall as long as you know when to rise up and you are eager to stand each time. 😃 It's alright to break as long as you know how to fix yourself up. 💙 It's fine to lose ourselves once in a while as long as we know where to find ourselves back and start again. 💜 Everybody goes through some bad moments in life but that's all they are - MOMENTS. Learn to face and conquer bad times. 💜 We may have big problems but our GOD is bigger. 💚

And if you're going through something right now, let this be a reminder for you. 👸

Remember when I told you that I've got so many backlogs? 😊 Well, I'm serious. Tbh, I don't even recall the exact date of this event. 😝 But anyway, last year around November we attended a Harry Potter themed 18th birthday! Awesome decors which I believe are mostly DIY ❤❤❤

Here's a glimpse of what happened, truly a #MAEgicalNight for Mae. 💞
Debutante's Seat ❤



Table Design ❤

Sparklers!! ❤❤❤

Entrance to Azkaban ❤ Just kidding! 😁

Woohoo. On our way to potterland. Lol 😁

 Warning: Photo heavy post 😁

We celebrated Nanay's 69th birthday last January 5, 2019 and once again I am late to upload all the photos I took during the celebration. I know you're asking why we celebrated a year short of her 70th birthday, well that is because my aunt from the UK won't be coming home next year so might as well celebrate it when the family's complete.

Well truth is, Nanay's birthday is actually Jan-07 but we had the celebration on a weekend so that it is convenient for everyone especially those who work on weekdays. 💬💬💬 Well enough of the long talk, here's a glimpse of what the Luau Party looked like. 😊

Nanay with her kiddos 💕

In my line of work, stressful days are so common that it has become a part of my life since I joined the corporate world way back 2012. 💆 There are days when I really started to ask myself, "What was I thinking when I accepted this job?". Lols, just kidding. 😁 But tbh, there are days when stress consumed my whole being that there are so many times that the comfort room cubicles became a room to my secret sobs. 💆😢 But, still I am here. So let me share a few things that I do when there's so much stress in my life but still needed to function like a happy human being.

  • DEEP BREATHS ARE A MUST. Before I fully transform into Incredible Hulk, I take really deep breaths. 😊
  • I go for a quick walk outside of the office.
  • Milktea! Coffee! I take whatever it is that makes me happy on the inside.
  • If your office is near a mall like ours, you can take a quick window shopping break. Just make sure not to max out your cards on unnecessary stuff.
  • I pray. Yep! I may not seem like that type of girl but I do say a little prayer just to calm myself.
  • I play games. That's why I bought a handheld console that I could bring to the office cuz a girl's gotta play some games too. 💁💁💁
There are still a lot of things that you can do to deal with stress. Stress is always there, whether you're a working girl like me or a student. Even the people at home gets stressed! 💢 Let's just learn how to cope with it like true magical girls. 💜

XO 💕

Oderint Dum Metuant: Let them hate, so long as they fear

It's 2019, how time flies. I didn't even realized how swiftly 2018 came and went. I have been through so much the past year that it became so physically exhausting that I get sick most of the time. I wanted to put all the past behind me but it's so difficult 😢 Anyway, I don't really wanted to start a new blog post with sad entries. 😊 I am really hopeful that this year will bring me great things. You know last year, my reputation has been tainted several times LOL - maybe that's why I love Taylor Swift so much because we've got big reputations baby. 😀 Kidding aside, I've made even bigger enemies, had the worst reputation my entire life - but still so much alive and fighting for a better life. 💕 I know I've grown so much hate in my heart that LOVE is almost an impossible sight. I've had people who wish they never knew me or have never met me. People who wish I didn't exist and people who just don't like me around. 😟 This year, I have decided to let go of these worries that people may hate - I WILL JUST LET THEM. Thus, Oderint Dum Metuant - a latin word that meant let them hate, so long as they fear. 

Let 2019 be a year of breakthroughs. To whoever is reading this, please be patient with me. I am trying and I wanna start with consistency. I want to be consistent once again especially in blogging. This is my way of release. I need to remind myself not to let this blog go. I have overflowing thoughts and I need to remind myself, especially at times when it's too much to bear, that I have this blog. 💕 

Let 2019 be a year of positivity. 💕 Even though there are times when I would once again fail, help me rise up from every fall. Stronger and wiser. Always ready to conquer the world with a smile. Let 2019 be a year full of hope for me and for everyone. I know what it's like to be so down; you almost can't pick yourself up. 😶 But just keep going and never stop. 💞

I missed you, fellow magical girls. May this year be a magical one for us. I am very much hopeful that we would all continue to find the power of fairy dust in our hearts. I am back and will never leave. 💞

XO 💕
Ria
