TV Shows I’ve Been Watching During Semester Break

I have a confession to make — if that isn’t obvious already — I am a huge fan of tv shows. I will always prefer tv shows over movies because in my opinion, I enjoy having tons of episodes to watch rather than a stand-alone 90-minute movie. Now, can you imagine Harry Potter being made into tv shows? I would have died right then and there! So here’s the list of tv shows I’ve been watching during semester break.     The Good Wife season 5 | This has got to be on my top 5 of favourite tv shows ever because it’s that good. It’s all I’ve been watching for 4 weeks. I haven’t even looked at other shows I’m following well except for Game of Thrones of course. The Flash season 3 | To be honest, I’m not quite sure why I didn’t go through the whole season and stopped halfway instead. We all thought that Iris was going to die but lo and behold, of course she couldn’t die. Of course. But the plot twist …

Self-hosted WordPress — How Much Does It Cost?

I’m a cheapskate — I’ll admit — I hate paying for grabs and although I love my blog to death, I won’t ever spend so much money on it to the point where I feel uncomfortable forking out hundreds for something so intangible. Unfortunately, this post is going to be relevant to my fellow Malaysian bloggers only as self-hosted WordPress costs differently depending on which hosting company you go for and which country you’re living in. It’s better to go for hosting company which main currency is your country’s currency, for example, as I’m living in Malaysia, it’s better for me to use a hosting company based in Malaysia since my blog will be hosted in Malaysia too. Many of you confuse WordPress.com and WordPress.org and to be honest, I do not blame you. Self-hosted WordPress is WordPress.org and WordPress.com in my opinion is just expensive Blogger.com and the limitation is baffling. You cannot purchase cute themes from Etsy for your WordPress.com and you’re only limited to their own theme shop.   [left] [/left][right] Hosting …

Hello blog, I’ve missed you.

I have been missing from the blogosphere for three weeks and I must say that I’m missing my blog so so much. There’s so much on my plate that needs my utmost attention so unfortunately I have to sacrifice my blog for the umpteenth time this year. However, I will update you with what’s been happening in my life recently:   [left] [/left][right] One If this isn’t news to you, my boyfriend came back to Malaysia for good after finishing his studies in the UK. Your home girl is no longer in long distance relationship woohoo! I must say that getting to be close to each other is so so worth it after being in an LDR for 2 and a half years. It feels like you just started dating! Two I am done with semester 6, you guys! I took Teaching of Literature in Education exam on Monday and that concluded the end of the semester. My 7th semester will be starting on September 11th and I only have less than 3 weeks for …

July Drugstore Haul

  Hi everyone. I am back with a drugstore haul of products that I am so excited to try! Last weekend, Watsons Sunway Pyramid had a sale and of course your home girl couldn’t resist and I just bought a bunch of products in my wish list focusing on skincare because my skin needed a new routine and this is the perfect time for changing my skincare regime.     [pipdig_padded_text]I’m going to get these out of the way before I start with new products. This 3 packs (of course I’m only showing one) of Soft & Clean Square Puffs was RM11.90 and the best thing is I love it so much. You know how cotton pads tend to leave stringy bits on your skin after using toner/micellar water? Well this one didn’t leave as much bits as other brands so I’m really liking it so far. I’ve been wanting to try Shiseido Facial Cotton but the price tag though.. I went ahead and purchased a new refill of LUX White Impress Shower Gel as …
