Twenty Sixteen : Journals in the Life of A Journal Junkie

I started organizing my thoughts and to-dos  a while back in 2013. Well, that is a far my memory takes me. During my teenage era I had the "Dear Diary " moments just any teenage girl. My mum was working all the way in Saudi Arabia and there has not been a single day in my life during those times that I did not miss my mummy. I used to write her letters on a weekly basis and I would refer to my dear diary to tell her every exciting details about my life like how I got friendly with my best friend and decided that she is the one that I want to share all my life's worth secrets with, how my poem got selected and got published in a school magazine and many more life's experience and teachings. I was not really a plan your thought kind of a person but I loved all the cute diaries that I have been growing up with. I started planning and drawing up monthly goals, to-do lists, meal plans just as I discovered the benefits of planning on paper as I aged. I must say this, I

Holiday Gifting Ideas

It can be really a challenging ordeal to get the best yet cost effective gifts for your friends and family during this holiday season. December is the time of year that I spend and splurge not only for myself but for my family and friends as well. December also happens to be my anniversary month and I love getting my man double gifts to amp up the “Decemberness” of my life. When you are shopping for gifts and having a really tight budget, always pick gifts that are meaningful for whom ever you are gifting. Nothing is considered cheap when it comes from your heart and is really meaningful to the recipient.  As for me my gift range is as low as RM 5 and could reach up to RM300 tops. So, as I am busy preparing for the gift exchange sessions, I thought of sharing with you guys some of the gifts that I have bought so far and am still accumulating. Let’s start off with the cute gift: I love this little bottle, it is suitable for both male or female. The cozy sleeve comes in

Let's Catch Up - Reminisces of 2015 (Part 1)

2015 was and is still a fabulous year for me. I have hit many cool milestones this year and will love to keep the motivation going for year 2016. I moved up my career ladder by moving out of my comfort zone “INTEL”. Apparently life can still go on after a big jump…lol. I love my new job, the people I work with and the opportunities I get here. Hoping for more and more enjoyable moments at Penchem Technologies Sdn. Bhd. in year 2016. This year I have learned to paint my nails well and all thanks to a dear friend & a sister Ester Kaur. She is a nail junkie and she collects nails polish. She has tons of nail polishes and has influenced me to get more now. Well is a talent I am sure proud I enhanced, I used to only do my toe nails and now my finger nails looks just as dolled up and done as the toe nails.  We now do weekly nail art challenge and keen in learning and exploring more nail art techniques. In my next post I will show you how I have go

Shade Me Red

Red has always been my favorite shade that I would without guilt wear it on my nails all the time. It is such a versatile shade that you can go full blow with the artwork or is just great on its own. It brings out the glamour in every lady.  That’s what I think…anyways I love wearing red nails in December because it just brings out so much of the holiday and Christmas feel.  So for this month I will be doing many more looks with the shade red. I added a little mosaic glitter on my nails, they were from Ciate’s Mosaic edition….and every time I look at it, it reminds me of all the sparkle any celebration would have.  Elianto Gel Nails - Ultra Gel Series in the shade Red Hot Chili Pepper Enjoy the holidays and stay safe my loves.  Glitter Pic : https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&source=imgres&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwjX45fgp8LJAhUIHo4KHfE5DlsQjhwIBzAA&url=https%3A%2F%2Fplay.google.com%2Fstore%2Fapps%2Fdetails%3Fid%3Dcom.WallpapersLo

Week 1 of Stir Fry Goodness

When you have a full time job, 5 doggies, a huge casa, 1 husband (lol) and health to take care; all you want to do is stir and fry your meals and gobble. Yes you heard me right, stir-fry! I have been making lovely stir fry lunches for myself for the past 3 days. They taste amazing, keeps overnight and it is so easy to make. All you got to do is chop, drop, stir and serve. Here are some of pictures from my stir-fry kitchen :) #foodjournal #day1 Stir-fried chicken with shittake mushrooms and veges I picked red and green bell pepper and some sugar peas for this dish. They require lesser cooking time and is packed with nutrients. Best is they are vibrant in colour. #foodjournal #day2 Stir-fried glass noodles with garlic hot dogs and veges   #foodjournal #day3 Stir-fried tofu with veges

Motivated March

Is the 3rd month of year 2015 and I am still on track with healthy eating and being fit and fabulous. Marking the beginning of this week with my weekly meal prep. I have made hummus,  first attempt and happy with the out come. The nuttiness of the chickpeas and garlic and the tartness from the lemon juice and sour cream is just amazing. It is a mouthful of goodness. Trust me when I say...is really good. The Recipe : 1 cup of hummus - boiled till soft 1 spoonful of lemon juice ( I eye balled it in ) 2 spoonful of sour cream 2 cloves of garlic salt and pepper to taste and some oilve oil  Drain and set the boiled chickpeas to cool then blend it with all the ingredients. Is really a foolproof recipe. There are many ways to make a flavor filled hummus, some adds cumin for a really earthy flavor, some recipes require chicken stock to season the hummus. I think hummus can be boiled in chicken stock instead.  Try it, can be served as a healthy alternative for those
