Get to Know Yourself Better & More

Posted on By sweet surrender 6 Comments on Get to Know Yourself Better & More

Warning: Very long post with all words, no picture. Read it at your own risk hahaha… I dare you to read it as you will know me better from this post. *BLEK*

I love quiz! I used to go to tickle.com for them but too bad it’s no longer available anymore sigh…

Anyway, I found a test at lilmspinky’s, she said it’s very accurate and I tried it out. It’s quite accurate for me. Go take your test too. Here’s the link to get to know yourself better.

  • Your view on yourself:
    You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.
    Irene says: Kind of agree.
  • The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
    You like serious, smart and determined people. You don’t judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren’t necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people’s eyes.
    Irene says: Agree!
  • Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
    You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship.
    Irene says: Agree!
  • The seriousness of your love:
    Your have very sensible tactics when approaching the opposite sex. In many ways people find your straightforwardness attractive, so you will find yourself with plenty of dates.
    Irene says: Agree! That’s why I got many male friends?
  • Your views on education:
    You may not like to study but you have many practical ideas. You listen to your own instincts and tend to follow your heart, so you will probably end up with an unusual job.
    Irene says: I love to study, I prefer to study than work else you think why am I taking up part time course? Don’t you think my job now is unusual enough? ;p
  • The right job for you:
    You’re a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you’ll be set for life.
    Irene says: SO NOT AGREE! I hate regular job, it bores and stresses me out!
  • How do you view success:
    Success in your career is not the most important thing in life. You are content with what you have and think that being with someone you love is more than spending all of your precious time just working.
    Irene says: Agree!
  • What are you most afraid of:
    You are afraid of things that you cannot control. Sometimes you show your anger to cover up how you feel.
    Irene says: Agree! So… You know why I angry a lot?
  • Who is your true self:
    You are full of energy and confidence. You are unpredictable, with moods changing as quickly as an ocean. You might occasionally be calm and still, but never for long.
    Irene says: Agree! So… Now you know why I kept emo-emo these days ;p

3 Cakes from Secret Recipe

Posted on By sweet surrender 6 Comments on 3 Cakes from Secret Recipe

Few days ago was my bro’s birthday. Thought of buying a whole cake from Secret Recipe but realised that we didn’t have enough people to finish that one huge cake, my sis is not here, my aunt is not here too so ended up my parents bought 3 pieces of cakes from Secret Recipe. Each of them cost RM6.50.

My bro made his choices:
Left: Chocolate Indulgence, this is still one of the best. Creamy and rich Belgian chocolate and white chocolate filling. This is what got my dad changed his perception of cakes from Secret Recipe.

Middle: White Chocolate Macadamia, too sweet! Not going to buy this anymore. Combination of fresh roasted macadamia nuts and creamy vanilla filling coated with white chocolate.

Right: Classic Chesse, not so bad, not too sweet. A traditional blend of mascarpone and cream cheese on a chocolate sponge based and finished with a classic touch.

Enjoy the cakes!

To My Male Friends

Posted on By sweet surrender 2 Comments on To My Male Friends


Not many people know that today is White Day. It’s not popular here but very popular in Japan and South Korea.

Actually this post is dedicated to my male friends. Girls, don’t be jealous ok? Not that I don’t appreciate our friendship and never dedicate any post for you people. We have our own girly secrets 😉 Give the guys a break today.

Male friends… I have many of them compare to female friends. I don’t know why but I’m sure some girls agree with me as one of my female friends also got more male friends than female friends. You know who you are 😉

I think I blogged about it before. I always have a very close male friend in every single phase of my life. We ended up as good friends, it’s all platonic. However, there were some with romantic feelings at the beginning but ended up we didn’t go further. We just stayed as friends as the feelings just subside on its own. When we talked about it, we would laugh at ourselves for being silly to have feelings for each other last time.

I’m not sure whether it’s just me or otherwise, I feel more comfortable talking with my male friends about some problems that I’m facing rather than with female friends. With my male friends we can talk non-stop about just anything under the sun from girl talk to man talk. Strangely I can’t really share many things with most of my female friends, usually just girl talk.

Most of the time, if you see me talking about going out with my friend(s), 98% would be male friend(s). Most of the time, I will ended up be the only girl in the group.

Sometimes if I do go out one-to-one with my male friend who are single, we would always be mistaken as couple by his friends or my friends that haven’t seen us for long time. It’s quite funny. Sometimes if we were in playful mood, we’ll just play along(as in just smile to them, didn’t say anything at all) and later laughed over it.

I seldom go out with male friends that are attached because it’s not very nice to be seen with unless their other halves know about it else I will usually stay away because usually our closeness will cause jealousy to their other halves so it’s better to play safe.

I guess male and female friendship will usually slow down when one of them are attached, there is no way both of you can maintain the usual closeness. Agree? There are always some degree of differences between male and female. It’s quite hurt and sad sometimes knowing that you both can no longer “play” like you both used to.

For you guys(you know who you are), thanks for everything. Thanks for the company and help whenever I need, be it shopping, traveling, dining or just anything and the rides, trusting me with your expensive gadgets(those DSLRs that were place under my care while you are away hahaha…) and your secrets, and many more. Most importantly, thanks for the respect, the trust, the understanding, and not taking advantage of me.

Be it male or female friends, the one that will go tru’ the ups and downs with you are your true friends besides your family.

Anyway, wish you guys a happy White Day.

I’m OK

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on I’m OK

Deprived of Internet for more than 12 hours and finally decided to call them up and guess what?!?! Session hang!! Should have call them earlier. What to do? All these while called them and never got it fixed instantly so don’t feel like calling anymore who knows…

Anyway, let’s go to the main topic ;p

Ever since 2009, I’ve been getting many MSN messages or from friends asking me whether I’m OK or not coz they saw my emo-emo posts in my blog or Twitter or Facebook.

Every single message that I got started with, “Are you OK?”

Then every single time, my respond would be, “What do you think? You think I’m OK or not? Hahaha…”

Don’t worry my friends, I know you all care for me. I’m OK 🙂 Nothing wrong. I can post it out means I’m OK, if I can’t then you might have to start worrying *LOL*

So… Yea… I’m OK. Even though I will emo-emo for a while for the time being, I’m still OK. You are welcome to see me emo-emo here *LOL* Don’t worry.

Actually, I’m running out of topic for the time being hahaha…

Oh… It’s Black Friday today!
