Things I have learned in the past :

1.    Never drunk texting, and don’t spend the entirety of the hangover days hating yourself. 

2.    I can’t make everyone happy. Is not easy to keep up with everyone’s wants and needs, let alone your on. 

3.    I will never be satisfied, as it will never be enough. I have learned that, even the richest man in this world still wants more money, so I have learned to be grateful for what I have now

4.    I find out who my true friends are as we get older, we have many changes in life which include the changing of people in my life. No friendship is immune to fall out. I have look closely enough now to filter the one who truly matters now and who simply don’t deserve to make it to my future.

5.    At times, we will be prone to put up with situation we’re not proud of like misunderstanding with friends, or starting a stupid argument and so on. Even if you told yourself not to repeat some of it, yet much of it will happen again. so I have learned to stop looking back and replay what I have done. Laugh it off and learn from my mistakes and focus on how far I have made and will go. I do admit I am still a slave to my past, but seriously invoking my own suffering will not benefit me, so I have decided to just let them burn, turn ashes and walk away. 

6.    In this materialistic and realistic society, people will always have something to say and will always be someone who will judge your decisions and even bring you down. Embrace your choices and show them off proudly as no one knows your journey and why make them stop you from taking chances? Though as much people always seems to have an idea of what you should do in your life or with your life. 

7.    I have realize how blessed I am, and I was now. Besides the basic necessities of life, I am blessed with so much more than I deserve. This is the best feeling in the world to realize how lucky I am and never pass up the opportunity to say thank you

8.    I have learned not to regret things and I keep asking myself what did I learn from this.

Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, you can start from now and make a brand new ending.

Looking forward to 2015 :

1.       Find a better job

2.       Visit a new destination

3.       Overseas trip with bff

4.       Stop Swearing

5.       You only live once, so be random and do whatever that makes me happy

6.       Don’t be bottled up anymore, I am already to the peak of my acceptance.

Ok, enough of essay already. To conclude this whole thing, 2014 was a biaatch to me and I hope 2015 will treat me better. Last thing I have learned in 2014 is to learned to shrug off things more often, and make 2015 be the year of YOLO.

Wireless Monopod

Hi guys, today im gonna do a device review.

A MONOPOD!

I believed this is something very common and i suppose you are thinking meh, why need to even do review for monopod?

Is just a freaking metal selfie stick... 

I might prove you wrong, lets read the following review...

This is a wireless mobile phone monopod by the model name of Z07-5.

The function to use this is the same as normal.

All you have to do :

1) Turn on your bluetooth, and pair with the monopod decice. 

2) Insert your mobile phone into the phone clamp and secure it with the gasket

3) Fix the screw and stretch the monopod

4) Focus yourself and then press the button

I bet you are saying, so what is the interesting part? Lets read more

1) You dont even need to hold the bluetooth device to click it. All you have to do is click here

2) Since there is no device and is attached with the stick, you can charge this stick here!

Dont forget to off it when you are done using it. 

3) it comes with a year warranty

This device initially cost RM109

But guess, how much i paid for it? 

RM39 :))) 

The price isnt far off from the normal one right?

How? If you are a DiGi customer, walk in to your nearest DiGi Centre and buy it at the price of RM39 with the thank you card. (Or maybe you can check out with the staff there on how to purchase)

Go, while stock last! Dont say I bo jio :)

Swich Cafe at Publika

Should you have any craving for cakes, you can head to Swich Cafe at publika

This outlet is a small cafe with limited choices but enough to cure your cravings. 

Swich cafe is located in front of Baby Loots.

Out of curiousity, i made my way to try out 2 of their signature cakes, mangosteen and cempedak cake.

But mangosteen was out of stock, so i have picked avocado, and also their cempedak cake. 

// Swich's Cempedak Tutti Futtri

\\ Topping : toasted coconut flakes, Mangoes. 

\\ Cempedak Sponge with fresh cempedak and cempedak cream

\\ The cake was so delicious, would come back for this again.

\\ Avocado Cake

// Quite tasteless, avocado smell not strong at all. Did not finish it.

Swich Cafe

Level G3, Publika Shopping Gallery,

Solaris Dutamas No 1,

Jalan Dutamas Kuala Lumpur

I do recommend giving this place a try and i will vome back for the mangosteens this time round

PICKNIK

A restaurant I actually anticipated to go

But it will be my first and last... why? read more and you will know why..

Meet Fresh, Pavillion KL

Decided to go Meet Fresh after my dissapointed visit to the Kenko Fish Spa

You can literally count the fishes with your fingers, no im not exegerating at all. 

I have only max 20 fishes only.

You cant even get to feel the nibble nibble feeling anymore compared to the past.

I Will NEVER go back anymore.

// Did you know that, meet fresh not only serves desserts, but food as well?

// Serving is small. Like kids meal. So we wont get full for their desserts?

// Carbonara

// Green curry chicken

Take a guess what is this

*roll drum*

Is actually nasi lemak. Hehe

// The recommended mango ice special

\\Rate : 3/5

\\ Just so so, not too special

\\ is just mango with shaved ice and ice cream

\\ No, no hidden treasure inside hahahah. 

// Purple rice porridge with taro ball RM5.90

\\Rate 4/5

\\the sweetness of it is alright

\\ Im not even a fan of purple glutinous rice but i can finish almost 2/3 of it.

\\ You should give it a try :)

And not forgetting, my favourite mochi.

// Q mochi! RM8.90

\\Rate 3/5

\\ just so so, not really the mochi i would go for again. 

\\ Prefer the japanese version more

\\ this mochi is kinda chewy (maybe thats why they name is as q mochi?)

\\ If you have no expectation for mochi or have not tried mochi, you can try this to acquire the taste first

Nana's Green Tea

Nana's Green Tea Cafe has reached to KL and the first branch finally launched in Garden's Mall and now 1Utama!

I am a big fan of green tea :)) and im so happy and glad is coming to KL after reading all the reviews from singapore bloggers. 

Mid Valley's branch is very packed (all the time), but trust me is worth the time waiting for table as their foods are in reasonable range. 

These are the food I would recommend: 

1) Matcha Shiratama Float

RM14.80

Matcha latte with mochi and green tea ice cream

2) Seafood Goma Dare Udon

RM26.80

This cold udon is very nice :)

It serves with seafoods like prawn, scallop, squid, avocado, and Nana's special sesame sauce. 

3) chicken cutlet curry

RM16.80

I love japanese food especially japanese curry. 

Trust me you should try this, their portion of chicken and also curry is SO HUGE.

I will come back for this again!

And the desserts, tadah!!!

Matcha "Nam Chocolat" Parfait.

RM19.80

Yummyyyy. This parfait serves with matcha chocolate ganache, red bean paste, corn flakes, vanilla ice cream, whipped cream with matcha syrup and Kanten Jelly.

Many might not like that matcha chocolate ganache because is bitter.

You can try the mild ones if you cannot accept strong green tea.

See how "kau" this thing is?

Yummeh. I am so gonna come back again.

Acme bar coffee at troika, Jalan Binjai

Lately, breakfast set is now a trend here in KL and the prices for breakfast set had almost standardize within an affordable range now. (For now only, as the price is increasing lately)

Everyone can now afford for breakfast set without feeling guilty for spending so much due to our money value and also inflation hehe

Today’s café hunting will be the Acme Bar & Coffee at Jalan Ampang.

Decided to give this a try thanks to its sizzling chocolate brownie

You may park your car inside so you wont risking your car kena tow away lol

Park near Tower A so you can take the lift up and the café is just on the right after entrance

The interior of the Café is really breathtakingly stunning, their furnitures matched with the ambience One word to best describe the café, stylish!

Didn’t manage to take any photo of the interior as too many eyes are looking awkwardly at me haha!

Their restroom is designed in a very unique way compared to other restrooms that I had been to.
