Happy New Year 2023 to all of you!

How fast?! Where did 2022 go? It’s 2023 now! Today is the second day of 2023 already. In 20 days’ time, the Lunar New Year will be coming. I will be busy baking and making some new year’s goodies these few weeks.

2022 was well… I don’t know… It’s too fast for me to process. What’s most important is that I’ve got through the year peacefully. I do not reflect too. What’s done is done. Move on!

There won’t be resolutions for 2023. I don’t do any. I will go with the flow and act accordingly. Why stress yourself with all those resolutions? *shrug* Most important is having an uneventful life. Peaceful, quiet, and healthy.

Just a quick post today.

Here’s my post on Instagram yesterday haha… These photos were taken with Realme C35 “smile shutter” feature. It’s pretty fun. Save so much time on selfies. I did do post-processing with AirBrush app.

Once again, wishing you a blessed new year!

Happy Birthday to Me 2022

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Happy Birthday to Me 2022

It’s another year… This time around, no longer in the three series but in the four series. How time flies?! Happy birthday to me!

Not sure how to feel. When I welcomed my 30s, there were so many dreams, hopes, and wishes but they didn’t turn out as planned. It’s OK. Life moves on. There have been ups and downs throughout the decade. Everything happened for a reason.

I am happy and grateful for what I have and where I am now. I’m not in the category where people are labeled as successful at this age. They are not me and I’m not them. Their lives are not mine and vice versa.

Not sure what this new decade will have for me. Whatever it is, the most important thing is for all my loved ones to be happy and healthy.

Cheers to a new chapter!

What to Get with RM150 on Zalora?

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on What to Get with RM150 on Zalora?

Got RM150 voucher from Zalora, did a total purchase of RM149.40. Here’s a very quick ASMR unboxing and try-on. Check it out to see what I got and how the fit is on me.

Here are the details of the outfits I bought:

1. ZALORA WORK Cuffed Puff Sleeve Dress (https://invol.co/cl8ppo2), Size S, RM33.90
Stretchy fabric (95% Polyester, 5% Elastane) but might not be comfortable to wear in hot weather due to the fabric. Wash and wear. I thought it would be too long (based on the model’s height) for me but it’s just above my knee. Body-hugging. The length and fit are just nice for me.

2. ZALORA ACTIVE A-Line Skirt (https://invol.co/cl8pprz), Size S, RM28.80
Slightly loose but it’s not a problem. Thick fabric, not transparent. Easy to wear. Zipper at the back. Quite comfortable to wear. This is my favourite.

3. ZALORA WORK Cap Sleeve Button Down Top (https://invol.co/cl8pq0z), Size L, RM29.90
The colour isn’t as bright as shown on the website. More brownish. It wrinkles after wash but it’s not too obvious due to the prints. Very light and airy.

4. ZALORA WORK V Neck Lace Detail Sleeveless Top (https://invol.co/cl8pq2l), Size S, RM23.90
The wrinkles and folding lines are still there after wash. Ironing will be needed for the first time I guess. The fabric (polyester) is very thin but it won’t show off your underwear because of the colour. On close inspection, it looks and feels cheap. Luckily the lace at the neckline isn’t too bad. The armpit holes are a bit big for me but not much of an issue. The fabric is not stretchable but can slip on easily for me. If I go for XS, I might have a hard time putting it on because there is no zipper or buttons. This is my least favourite.

5. ZALORA WORK Collarless Blouse (https://invol.co/cl8pqks), Size L, RM32.90
The fabric is thin but comfortable enough. It wrinkles after wash. The descriptions stated that it’s polyester but it doesn’t feel like it at all. More like cotton.

The video isn’t nicely edited but hopes the video is helpful 🙂

Happy Birthday to Me…

One last one for the decade. New decade starts next year *LOL* Gosh… How time flies?!? 3 series will be over in one year time. Hitting 4 series… *HORROR* *LOL* Hmmm… I wrote a post on my Instagram but I cannot embed it here. Apparently WordPress.org doesn’t support such thing anymore sigh… So… I’ll just copy paste it here… Post link is here https://www.instagram.com/p/CTY_cRkvi6r/

Another year older… The last one for this series. New series will start next year. So much had happened for the decade. Wishes that I made early in the decade didn’t materialise. I’m glad they didn’t. I won’t want to be where I wished for at time like this. So… Careful with what you wish. I never make any wish until 10 years ago. It ended with disappointment after disappointment. Not a good idea haha… Just go with the flow and don’t force on it. That’s the way to go.

Moved to Adelaide to do my Masters for 2 years in 2011. In between, spent a month in Busan, thanks to a scholarship. Back to Kuching 2 years later. Joined 4 companies from small one with less than 5 staff to as big as 200 over staff. From private companies to GLC. From IT to education to hospitality to tourism. Visited 10 foreign countries. Everyone is doing well at home. What is there to ask for? It is all good. 🙏 Not gonna trade anything for it.

How long more are we going to stuck in this situation? I don’t know… If the chain doesn’t break, don’t dream about it. You’ll end up with deadlier situation as it is going to mutate all it wants. Rather than endemic, it will mean real “end” by then. So? Oh well… Kong pun bo yong…

No cake for this year. My order had to be cancelled due to the virus. Nothing appealed to me at the bakery too. As if I went to many. Just one only 🤣 Anyway, no problem. I’ll bake my own next week hahaha…

Happy birthday to myself and thank you for the wishes 🎂 Stay safe and have a good day.
