OOTDs #8

I was just testing out the Blogger apps on my new phone *my love Samsung Galaxy Note 3*, I can't deny how more convenient it is especially in terms of transferring the photos. Did I mention the photos is so much better! However as 'cerewet' or detailed I can be is that I always think that I need to edit lighting of the pictures... I can do that on my phone as well since they have a decent photo editor, but for some reason I just think the photos look better through the phone than looking into my laptop... I wonder if it just the brightness of my laptop compare to my

Note 3... I'm still figuring out whether I can start upload photos into blog on the go or would the quality be less?? hmmm...

BIG BANG was in Belfast!

this might be the first time I really felt like a die-hard VIP!!

Who ever thought that Big Bang will come to Belfast, all FIVE of them!!

GD, TOP, Tae, Dae and Seungri!!

So it was like this, I was wondering... on my own...

whether will they come or not...

then suddenly on last Thursday,

my friends from Dublin (they are VIPs) whatsapps me saying that they will come to Belfast to catch Big Bang,

I was like " REALLYY!!!!!"

so to be honest, if my friends didn't say anything about Big Bang I wouldn't even think of seeing Big Bang in real life. So the next day, they update saying that Big Bang will arrive at 12.20pm,

and my friends could not make it.... I was blurrrrr...

then a text came from a friend, fellow VIP as well asking if I'm going to the airport...

and I just GO! so thanks to my friends I manage to push my inner VIP self. haha!

so to the airport we go, and I saw a fellow Malaysian VIP and I get to know the local VIP....

and as I expected, there are only VIPs!! theres no fans of Selena Gomez, but there are a few random people who's looking for any celebrities.

12.30pm - 1.00pm ... theres no sign of them...

then we wait for the next flight at 2.30pm... there are still no sign..

although I did catch a glimpse of Selena Gomez...

I wasn't excited anymore... not to forget due to some old sick lady that give us VIPs false alarm...

but the local VIPs are still hoping they arrive today, and the Belfast City Airport, on of the staff told us, they are not coming today, but I guess we weren't convinced...

then the MTV EMA staff said to us to come tomorrow because they ABSOLUTELY not going to arrive today... sadly we took off from the airport 6.00pm

*and I was thinking if they arrive later that day, curse you EMA and City Airport, haha!*

What I discover that day that common interest does make people stick to each other, that evening my friend and I even get a lift from the VIPs... thanks you guys...

haaaa... I still remember looking at her Twit account n her phone VIPs all are giving condolence to VIPs in Belfast that we weren't able to meet them.. and where the hell is Big Bang??!! that remains a mystery.

So another surprise comeup later that evening, people writing on my wall, like how the hell they know I was at the Airport, and I realize that I was on TV news, UTV.... *speechless*!!!

it was awkward!! they put the video link on my wall, tagging me ...

and people keep saying I saw you on TV... to my disbelief, my friend who was on that as well does not receive as much blow out as I did, maybe because I'm bigger *size wise* and I was more obvious.

And since the news feature VIPs in Belfast, the video practically spread to all Big Bang VIPs blogs and websites, even to allkpop!!!

http://www.allkpop.com/2011/11/big-bang-arrives-in-belfast-for-2011-mtv-europe-music-awards

Enough about that, I was already disappointed, didn't meet BB that day, and I was overwhelm about the video thing... I was really hoping I get to meet them tomorrow.

So I didn't manage to get sleep actually, I even made Twitter account so that I am able to keep updated... and I was quite late... but it make sense since the flight arrive at 8.20 am, we just couldn't find the taxi. We ran to the arrival door, and MORE VIPssss!!!!!

There was more Koreans as well *I mean staffs that came with BB*, but not BB yet.

then, peek closer into the arrival, I saw a tall guy, with brown hair, blue printed jacket... it was TOP!!!!! ok, it's real!! kept saying that to myself... waiting and anticipating...

and they Come out... my blackberry was on Video recording on standby mode...

It was amazing!!

First it was Seungri, but too bad he face down, so I can't really look at his face.

Then, it was Taeyang... he was the most obvious one, even though he's actually more petite, but due to his cool hair and lighter clothing, he was obvious and the best recorded in the video.

Taeyang face was the most excited one, and the fact that many are chanting his name, 'Taeyang!" would really fed his confident! Yea Taeyang!

Then talk about small frame, GD is small as well, and I almost lost him,

looking and walking cool as the cool leader, his face does not express much... and I almost did not notice Daedae was next to him... He is the one who looks most tired, ... *seulpohajimalgo, :(*

then it TOP!!!! no I meant to say Vic from Iris, because that how Top's face looks like,

all smirking and looking good, not to forget his jacket... is to die for!!!

I was actually really starstruck and paused in a moment, that's why I was only close to TOP.

and I felt really close, if I just reach out my hand to touch his shoulder or his hair ,

ahhhhhhhhhhh *fan girl mode*

my friend was close *the one who's in yellow scarf* and her video is consist of Top's profile,

to die for, his dimple is real!!!

things go more crazy as Top waves back at us when many wish him Happy Birthday!!

Then we only can look at them entering the car, Tae wave again, more shouting!!!!

We VIPs seriously would like to thank you the Belfast City Airport staff, for letting Big Bang come out the door where we can meet and greet them!!! love you Belfast!!!

It was really crazy! then after that more SBS, KBS and some say Big Bang TV cameras was there, and they record us VIPs, I manage to shout out make a concert in Europe!!

It was really nice and worth the Saturday morning which I usually slept in, I rest my case,

Since then, I was really in 'angau' state, macam gila sikit,

even when people say 'TOP'less, I remember him and them.

Than the next night, it was MTV EMA and guess what???

They WON!!!! I was practically shouting just return from raya at a friend's house,

http://www.allkpop.com/2011/11/big-bang-wins-best-worldwide-act-at-mtvs-2011-europe-music-awards

What I like most about them winning, is them being humble,

GD: "we are called Big Bang, from South Korea....

as usual, best GD!

Ps: If you guys notice, I just made a twitter account, and I decided to continue use it, and it might involves beauty and vanities stuff other than BIG BANG!!!

ahhhhh *fan girl mode*

It's been a month, tired... *just noticed, my 100th post*

It's been a month since I updated my blog,

due to shocking heartbreaking exam result I receive when I was back in Malaysia,

I put a halt on my blogging activities.

The reason is for me to keep myself calm and not too think too much.

a lot been going on, I stayed in Malaysia for only about 2 weeks and I was back in Belfast by 11th September. I failed one of the module from my exam, to be precise my resit, and I was to face the School Student Progress Committee just to discuss as in why I fail and the consequences for that.

So the next day I was suppose to meet my lecturer to go through my paper. I failed the module that combine Treatment and Disease and although I got 62 points which is actually above passing mark of 50, however the mark is not balance between Treatment and Disease.

I did well in Treatment but bad in Disease. So I was suppose to see the Disease lecturer but too bad she is not working with Queen's anymore and I only get to see the Treatment lecturer, which to be honest does not help much since he just say that I improve in Treatment. What is more heartbreaking is when I get to know that I need only another mark to pass the Disease element... '-.- however by then I was already 'redha' that I have to repeat the year.

So during the meeting, I was calm and passive and I was in acceptance.

The fact the school provide a support letter does make me feel better, but the fact that I 'lost' a year... it is hard. It is harder when I always bump in course mate who pass the first year and knowing that I'm not in the same class anymore.... it is sad I can't deny it. Then I just join the first year class, *sigh* again, well at least I only need to repeat one module *so less exam*.

Telling my close friend even friends back in Malaysia put me at ease as well with their support and even the freshers' who are technically my classmates now, they are cool too.. I guess

*ego senior*

However I was moving on until MARA London Director come down to Belfast, actually Belfast is 'fofular' lately even the High Commissioner come here from London... meeting 'big' people... is awkward... *smile* , but I enjoyed it. The Director talk to me about this matter. I was supposed to contact her as soon as possible, she said MARA could have helped me plead to the school. I regret that I keep it to myself.

The solution is unknown... who knows what would happen to me especially in the final year. I might not get funds to continue my study, and following new policy I might can't continue here at all. However, I'm just praying hoping MARA will give me a chance. Student loans is a serious shit. I can't say anything anymore except that I should be ready at any time... just in case. Insyallah, I get through this.

It's been a wild month since I updated the blog, the freshers' are here and there are more of them and I enjoy getting to know them. Being involved with the Sambutan Pelajar Baru under QMC was a great experience and does put my mind off thinking about the same sad thing over and over again.

Other than that I find challenges when I lost my 'junior' tittle and really get to know some of people here are fake... 'bermuka-muka', 'tikam belakang'... how wrong am I to believe that these people get along with the other people in Belfast. Now I know why there are some 'random' 'weird' fellow Malaysian (I might say Malay/Muslim as well) exist in Belfast, and may I say they belong to this one pact, 'pakatan'...

*I want to say organisation, but I believe it's unfair to the Organisation itself*

.... awkward...

*trying not to hate in order to prevent myself from being bitchy*

other than that, I did get sick and tired of some people ignoring their responsibilities and people who knows me, know what happen when I get serious...'-.-

dahlah aku tengah berkabung sebab kena repeat year, boleh pula selamba badak ambil kesempatan.

Ignorance!

But it's ok now, I feel much stronger, I realize to never give a shit about people who step all over you and finally never deceived by people's appearance... *haihhhh nak je mencaci orang-orang tu kat sini... tapi tak pelah... not my blogging style pun.

Since I join the QMC committee I feel... I don't feel anything actually except furious and stress.. haha!! but it is understandable, we were in a slump from summer... but since last night I believe everything will be ok and it will get better.

So that is all for now, will keep updating again... and continue my travel post from summer... *I know it is almost winter, but maybe reminiscing about my summer trip make the winter this year feel warmer, *

New Model/Victim~~ and Kelas Kemahiran Helwa

It has been a while since I update on makeup label.

I even still have a draft that haven't been posted yet.

So this morning I joined the 'kelas kemahiran' organised by Helwa QMC.

This class include cake decoration, headscarf style, muslimah clothing and makeup application.

Guess what? I was invited as 'teacher' for the makeup session. *wow!

In a way I feel nervous because I never had professional training and I never even went to makeup/grooming class, so I felt I was in wrong place.

But I guess my small passion (including the fact that I did talk about makeup when introducing myself at QMC reception) has give me the confidence to share my 'knowledge' as well as opinion in makeup.

It has been a while since I put makeup on someone else (but then the only person who always got a free makeover from is my sis, miss my main model). I was quite worry cause no one seem interested to be my model for the class, until the day K Pipot come and visit a few days before.

Since I already try the makeup on her, it make things much easier if she is my model for the class (which she was).

So for the class I only introduced basic stuff and just added a simple smokey eyes for fun.

Seriously I was really nervous, really afraid of making m

istakes ... Alhamdulillah, the class went well.

My new model, K Pipot. Practicing makeup on her. (forgot to take picture from today class)

So with K pipot, the steps are:-

1. She doesn't have many blemishes, just a bit of redness. So after moisturizing, I buff on the MAC Mineralize Skinfinish(MSF) Natural (my foundation does not match her well, but if foundation was applied it would have given a more flawless finish)

2. Then using The Bodyshop Concealer, I apply by finger on discolouration (since I didn't put on foundation) on eye area, around nose and cheeks (her cheeks are red).

3. Then to contouring, using deeper shade of MAC MSF Natural with fan brush in the hollow of the cheeks. Then MAC Iridescent powder on the cheek bones. Then nude blush, MAC Mineralize Blusher in Warm Soul on the apple of the cheeks.

4. For the simple smokey eyes, I will just use 3 eyeshadow colour (I use L'oreal Quad) ; taupe, vanilla and peachy pink and all are shimmery.

First, the peachy pink packed on the lids from lashline to the crease using applicator brush, follow with vanilla for higlithing on the inner corner of the eyes and on brow bone, then the taupe applied at the upper and lower lash line and at the outer corner I made like a flick with the taupe. Finally BLENDING! Very important. Blend to get rid of the harsh line and diffuse the colour together.

5. Since I would like to give a more intensity I use black eyeshadow and applied thinly on the upper lashline and extend it more to give a more elongated illusion. On the lower lashline just applied lightly up to 2/3 of the eyes from outer corner.

6. Finish of with curling lash and mascara (I didn't apply mascara on her since it is unhygienic)

7. For the lips, I just left it bare since her lips look healthy pink with just colourless lipbalm.

Alright back about Kelas Kemahiran

Kelas menghias kek oleh K Linda. Since all the session are given only up to an hour, the class just stick to basics. All I learn today is practice make perfect and I still have a long way to go to make Mama proud (tunggu eh Mama, masuk allowance, get myself baking tools and start baking, hehe).

But just look at the picture of the cake that K Linda come up within a very short period of time! MANTAP!!

K Siti, K Syasya (Cikgu2) and K Tiqah (Model)

The class held by the 'tudung' expert went very well, and it did trigger my 'supposedly shutted down' fashion sense in headscarf style. In the near future I might consider wearing different style of headscarf.

The best tip: tetas inner untuk memberi bentuk kepada inner.

*kalau tak nak style yang melekat di dahi

The Class end with K Hani presentation on Muslimah Clothing.

*too bad didn't have any photo of it.

Credits to the catwalk done by the models.

The class was a good reminder for us all (muslimah) so that we are aware of how we present ourselves outside.

The rule of thumb is very important, its okay to style and makeup yourself as long as we remember not to go overboard.

Overall, really had fun learning as well as teaching... hehe

PS: Credit to the cook who serve a very innovative masak lemak kuning! *woww!!!

Just remember about this... last Winter!

I almost forgot about posting this, it has been as a draft for a very very long time.

Alright, when was this?? hahah!!

So it was the first week of winter holiday, I got a flight to Southampton. It was delayed, but a bit. Whatever, I manage to get to Brunei House, where my friend, Aida live.

Brunei House.

It was great hospitality, apparently Aida got one hall (kitchen + bathroom) shared with only fellow Malaysian female. So, it was very home-like. Obviously I could not offer the same feeling if she ever come here.

I stay there up to 4 nights I believe, I thought about going to London, but I just end up lazing off in Aida's bed. So, I pretty much visiting Southampton all 4 days.

Ship-gazing: apparently suppose to be a popular activity *??

Mayflower Park.

From here I also visit the Titanic Trail, Maritime Museum.

I just forgot to take picture outside the museum, I guess I was trying to make most of 1.50pound entry fee to the museum.

Walking through the city.

Then, me and Aida's geng got up to train for Portsmouth.

This where the shopping paradise lies, Gunwharf Quay.

It was the bomb! The worst thing was, I did not have much money, but I still manage to get out with a 10 pound French Connection pants. *hehehe.

Oh, did I mention they also have factory outlet for high-end makeup!!! COOOL!!

To be honest, I was tired by the last day in Southampton. The next day, we went for the Winter Gathering under MSM, oh by now should be IKRAM UK & Eire.

But the memory in Southampton was never to be forget and meeting Aida's flatmate who were very generous to me, nice.

Then off to Sheffield for the Winter Gathering.

All I can say is that, there were a lot of people, A LOT!

I meet lots of new friends as well as friends from KMBian, nice to see you guys!

*who would have thought many from Ireland would come, oh wait, I'm from Ireland... hehe...

no, no, I'm from Northern Ireland, UK. Whatever.

Yeah, I'm glad I learn a lot from the gathering

*I wouldn't really call it gathering, it should be 'motivational camp'...

despite being depressed in cold and not having shower *eh macam tak biasa pula,

I still make most from it.

Oh we got a day off on boxing day, since I'm not into shopping that time, I just walk around Sheffield city and university.

Tram, why I don't see one of these in Belfast.

Weston Park.

I thought about visiting the museum, too bad it was close that day... duhhh!!

So we just walk and walk....

By the end of winter gathering I really want to have a rest on my bed back in Elms... but what what was I supppose to do, I still have to wait for my flight in 3 days from Manchester.

So got to Manchester by bus, stay with my friend Afiqah, *sorry to intrude...

Did I mention about how hardworking she is in the kitchen, *amazed!!

That first night, there were me, Fiqah, Ann, Heidy, Lela, Sarah (UCL) and S as well.

Bapak arh, KECOH gile!!! Dengan S and Lela... *usap kepala

The next morning, me and Fiqah teman S shopping.

Wow S, boleh tahan.

Quoted from Fiqah "S shopping macam nak rompak"

and me, I was carrying his shopping bags, and taking care of that guy's passport.

*usap kepala

That night, finally met Rhoe and Syakirin was there as well.

Rhoe said you can never go hungry here.

Yes, the food around Rusholme area, not just HALAL, TASTE GOOD and CHEEEAAAPPP!!

So we went for burger, ice-cream and then ribs

*forgot the name, but remember the taste... yummm..

back to Fiqah's place, she feeds us more. *that's why, she is rajin in the kitchen.

And again KECOHHH!!

Nak migrain kecoh dua malam berturut-turut. This time S and Rhoe...

lepas tu kes S dapat kena subanlah...

Yang tak boleh blah, lawak Syakirin ,'-.- *ohh, macam ni orangnya Shakirin ni... hahha!!

The next day, just to make it right *I guest

I went to visit the Old Trafford. hhmmmm???

If only I am a really BIG fan of MU or at least Football... haha!

Old trafford *that's a nice picture of me... hahah!!

Oh, we bump into rombongan Heidy, again kecoh!

The night was spend at Aqill's home, kesian Aqill masa tu, demam masa baru balik dari Sheffield, pastu boiler tak on... aduhai...

She was feeling better that time and making a feast, since we suppose to meet Aida's Jaulah geng which include Ada as well. But too bad, Aida couldn't stay for too long.

Then the last day, suppose to be glad that I finally going back to Belfast, but feel sayanglah... probably since I didn't get to spend much time with Aqill and Ada kot.

But that morning before my flight at 4pm, we just decide lets have M08K time!

Fiqah couldn't join since she was on train to London.

Rhoe was the tour guide again, he shows around the University and the Manchester Museum, which have the 'cliche' T-rex... hahah!! too bad it was a short visit, since we went there late and I have to catch the bus to the airport by 2pm...

Bapak arh, lupa pula Manchester Airport besar gedabak!!! Ingat sampai on time, last-last kena pecut sampai terminal, nasib baik security semua pass. Got on the plane safely.

Overall, it was TIRING!!!

*haha! not so positive..

But, yeah, I have gain a lot from there, knowledge, fun and more importantly experience.

For someone who doesn't go out much, to travel on her on eventhough just in UK... is quite a big deal, well, at least to my parent. Let this just be a first step for me to start to get use to travelling, because to be honest at first, I have no intention and what so interest in travelling.

What I know is, I will cherish this trip.

LEEDS and Notts Game...oh, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

hehehe... somehow I lost track of time... sedangkan dah 2011,

sibuk nak post benda dah lapuk ni...

but whatever guys, I just finish my EXAM today and I am damn happy being able to relax while blogging... Eventhough it was an old trip,

*cop, takdelah old sangat pun, awal November kot!

It is just when I reminisce what was I doing all this while

*that I was like a blockhead when doing the exam,

That I remember all the trips I have been to.

to tell truth,

I am not really fond of the idea of travelling, its tiring, you spend a lot, uncomfortable since it's not home...

but when doing it actually, I really enjoyed it.

As much money I have spent while on the trip, as wasting as it could be, the fact that I was able to meet friends, visiting places I never would really expect to reach, having adventure and being independent,

IT WAS ALL WORTH IT!

Okay, what so great about this trip is that I was really excited that I will be seeing many of my KMBians friends at the Notts game. The reason I went to Leeds is because my friend, Lin has a sister there and I guess she wants to visit her and I, I never been to Leeds, so what the heck.

So the day I arrive at Leeds, Lin's sis brought us to Guy Fox Bonfire. There was firework as well, *well, I am not that crazy about fireworks...

But it was a great night, meeting new people...

oh did I mention I finally had chicken sandwich at SUBWAYS... yes people, there is HALAL SUBWAY in LEEDS... in fact there is a lot of halal restaurant...

*ok, maybe that time I was really shock I can't buy chicken sandwich anymore since I study here in Belfast, but I am adapting...

So the next, Notthingham for Notts Game...

I had to wake up really early to join the Leed's convoy to Notts. It takes a while for me trying to identify anyone I knew... hmmm.. So I met Jeffrey and Azuwa

(eh classmate satu uni... cop, aku pun sama.. haha!!)

Arriving at NOTTS Uni, OMG busy and very crowded, macam mana nak cari kawan ni!!!

Hehe, jumpa !!

Ya Allah, kalau nak list satu2 aku pun bosan nak menaip... tapi serius lebih kurang macam reunion gitu... siap rekod video selamat hari raya haji pula...

It was really nice, suddenly us just meeting and hang around turn to this big reunion...

biasalah... rindukan suasana KMB.

Tengoklah facebook, siap ada gambar macam gambar batch lagi....

Aku ambil gambar-gambar random je...~~

*bersepah kan budak KMB, haha!!

But yeah, seeing these people here remind me of friends who were not there...

*rindu

It was really tiring you know even though I don't play a game...

Just to record it, Congrats to

BEDAH getting 3rd in Ping Pong

IrHafiz's football team for winning 1st first place

and Azeem's team as well, getting 2nd place.

I just knocked out after got back, *thanks Lin's sis for preparing a very comfortable bed.. ~~ZZZzzz

so next day, its LEEDS time...

yeah, even though I don't really have shopping in mind but the fact there was *a lot* money on me, how could I resist... hehe... but I don't spend much... and the stuff I bought I really put on good use tau...

Ok that was it I think for my weekend trip...

There is another trip I will post... the longest trip I had, my winter trip...

too bad it's not really a grand trip, and it is not out UK... but I was really satisfied...

I believe it is really a good start for as an independent traveller

*fuhhhh... cam bajetlak...

You know what, as much as I am enjoying these adventure, I was wondering if I got back to Malaysia, will I be able to do this? Before this, I always at home and very seldom that I go out and hang out with my friends. Here, I could not deny that since I am on my own here without my parent by my side, I kinda ikut suka hati, and my mum can't say much, even though she's not pleased, but what can she do, since I'm here, and she's there... but back home nanti.. tak tahulah...

I hope I will still be able to... MAMA, PAPA please!!

Anyway,

SELAMAT TAHUN BARU, 2011!!!

Ps: Okay, before I'm going back to Malaysia in summer, I have to make sure I travelled out of UK... just to prove to MAMA PAPA that I seriously can be on my own... noted.

Pss: but first kena saving... no shopping spree!!! ...=.=...

UCD, Benbridge and Odyssey... 1st time jadi tourguide

OHHHH, finally!

Jumpa juga budak Dublin,

walaupun hari yang pergi Cardiff, Paan dan Sha Azni datang Belfast dari Cardiff

tak sempat jumpa...

kali ini, kedatangan 6 pelajar UCD,

my dearest Rifhan, Syamin, Rina, Fazu (budak M08d~~) Mali and Salimah

(lepas ini di'refer' sebagai 6 budak UCD)

berjaya disambut di Europa bus centre...

Hujan and sejuk tidak menjadi penghalang untuk 6 budak UCD ini berjalan-jalan walaupun terpaksa menarik luggage mereka.

Sempatlah aku tunjuk Belfast City Hall dan bergambar walaupun hujan...

Ribuan penghargaan*asal bunyi pelik?

diberikan kepada 'Pharmacy Household' *grand tak nama?!! hehe

di Eglantine Avenue

sebab sudi memberi tempat tidur kepada 6 budak UCD ini.

Sangatlah dikesali terlupa ada Malam Quran ...

setelah menjamu Jaipur kami pun berangkat,

Malam itu sebagai Tour Guide Rookie, aku sedar banyak kelemahan dalam diri,

contohnya, selalu sangat lupa jalan... Ulsterville pun tak kenal lagi...

*malu sebagai budak Belfast

Oh well, sempat juga show off our beloved Lanyon Building and then MBC (6 pelajar Medic UCD) dan bangunan-bangunan yang sewaktu dengannyalah...

sayang sekali Botanic Garden tak sempat.

Tour petang itu diakhiri dengan coffee at Starbucks.

Lanyon Building, 6 budak UCD dan Tour Guide Rookie

Balik-balik, semua terus nak collapse... nak kumpul tenaga untuk aktiviti utama esok,

Shopping di The Outlet, Bendbridge.

Mengikut maklumat yang didapati, The Outlet dapat memberi lebih kepuasan kepada para Shopaholics berbanding dengan Junction One...

hmmm, it is hard to argue since I never been to Junction One.

Okay, The Outlet, actually I wasn't looking for anything particular,

fashion-wise, there wasn't anything impressive.

Aku macam keluar masuk kedai, tangan masih kosong. Dahlah ada pak cik pelik dari Bendbridge tiba-tiba ikut, *ini semua sebab syamin friendly sangat!

but in the end, I did buy something worth (dalam erti kata lain, MAHAL),

a pair of boot

and other stuff

(most are basics like tights and camisole).

Bukti The Outlet taklah best sangat : Muka monyok~~

Malam tu, 6 budak UCD sangat bertuah sebab ada orang sudi masak bagi makan...

terima kasih Shidan household... for the food and for the laugh

Rummateku, Rifhan dan Rina bersemangat pula nak tidur di Elms Village.

Rina di bilik Athirah dan Rummateku, di bilikku lah...

*amat dikesali juga ada yang tak dapat tengok bilik aku macam mana...

tapi serius macam KMB tapi lagi luas, kalau korang nak tahulah

Pagi esok, Carboot pula, di Crumlin Road.

*memang objektif kedatangan 6 pelajar UCD ini ialah Shopping!

nampaknya hasil hari ini juga memuaskan...

*sila rujuk facebook untuk bukti gambar

then tour guide rookie sent them off to Europa, bidding them GoodBye!

Semoga bertemu lagi!!

So on that Sunday, the day is still young for me to go back, turn off the mode of being a tour guide, I am back being some kind of a loner.

Seriously, walking alone to the city makes you appreciate more what is around you...

*I think

Petang, plan nampak kabur lagi, tak tahu nak pergi mana, duduk berehat di Belfast City Hall, macam loser...

Mungkin macam loser sebab 'selca' ...

untuk kurangkan ke'loser'an call Malaysia. Family seem to do fine back in Ampang.

Plan nak tengok Fireworks di Odyssey pukul 6 ptg, tapi ada Study Circle, Malam Quran dah miss, don't want to miss this one...

so, Make a call, postpone study circle to 7p.m., settle.

Sekarang, geng? Lin and geng Shidan ... lambat sangat!

WaI? Ita? Yes! Settle... tapi still kena tunggu...

to kill time, explore Castle Court yang tak sempat-sempat lagi explore... dan window shopping lagi.

Nak shopping, tapi takut payah nak pegang barang masa nak pergi Odyssey nanti.

Tiba-tiba, sambil tunggu WaI dan Ita ada perarakan...

tapi tak pasti perarakan apa... yang pasti bukan Holloween.

Jumpa pun Budak-Budak Farmasi, setelah duduk lama kesejukan, kami terus bergerak ke Monster Mash di Odyssey, naik bas free!

Tapi secara jujur, budak-budak saja yang boleh enjoy Monster Mash, performance pun lagu budak-budak. Sempat juga berjumpa dengan Lin dan yang lain.

Sedar-sedar, sangat lapar, makan Ice-cream and

Chocolate-dipped Apple (holloween apple).

Sempat juga masuk Odyssey... tak ada apa-apa sangat, tapi kalau konsert besar, di Odysseylah.

Last time, Lady GAGA, ... sayang, sayang duit sangat!

Puppet show... *budak-budak tengah bersila kat depan

dengan Budak Farmasi *sorry malas nak tulis nama

balik Monster Mash pergi rumah Kak Sya for study circle...

lama tak jumpa Kak Sya... pengisian tidaklah terlalu berat cuma nak cerita SEED dan POEMS (opps, I miss POEMS since I was still stuck in Malaysia)

POEMS yang diceritakan oleh geng Farmasi memberi sedikit sebanyak semangat untuk menyertai POEMS Revisited...

Overall, it was a great weekend...

To be honest, TOO TIRING...

I can't have this every weekend...

I really wish for simpler weekend...

But it was super super great to see the 6 budak UCD... hehe...

Ps: Maybe next location Tour guide rookie is Giant Causeway? *bajet!

CARDIFF trip...

Wow, saya memang suka menghabiskan duit... beli tiket flight...

Well, the actual cost is only 80 gbp... but seniors is so nice (kak Tiqah and kak Wan), sanggup belanja dalam 20+gbp lagi.... Duit MARA masuk nanti saya belanja makan eh...

Why was I really excited to get here... (Cardiff a.k.a. Caerdydd)

I never been in the mainland

There are a lot of KMBian 10 there (including my sugarbabe)

I miss my sugarbabe(refer to above)...

Since there was a program (SEED) over there, I thought it is a chance to go there...

*For some reason, I thought it is hard or 'unlikely' from Belfast to get to the mainland, never realize it was easy...

Oh well, in my opinion,

Cardiff is less colder than in Belfast... *it should be, geographically

When we arrive, it was raining

Shortly after arriving we join the program(SEED), we actually miss some of it, there were mainly 2 speakers, which actually presenting idea from 2 differrent perspective, one I am familiar with, the other, I would say 'controversial' idea, somewhat conflicting in what most of us understand...

well, I wouldn't really want to blog about it (not my blog's style, sorry!)

at the program, I met my dear blockmate (KMBian), Farah Shazana, Wardah, Haulah, Achik, then Nina, Edy *siapa lagi?

Nice to see them adjusting to new lifestyle (living in Cardiff)

Then, I skipped the last part (closing ceremony, since I want to see my dear sugarbabe, Anne.

She brought me to this potluck held by the Malaysian Society there, and I met Efa.

Efa was practicing badminton before that (semangat Badminton!)

So it was seem like my dear friend, who I presume was going to show me around was busy, and somehow I end up being a member of Cardiff Malaysian Society (funny!).

oh yeah, Kasyur was there too...

I decided to go to Farah Shazana's room which is en suite... bilik jiranku masih sama seperti KMB, sangat selesa, dan aku rasa memang tertidurlah waktu..

sambil rehat-rehat tu Farah sibuk skyping, don't worry dear, I didn't eavesdrop on you,

even if I did, I keep my mouth shut.

Until I realize I get hungry but Anne still busy, so I join my seniors for a meal at this supposedy Japanese restaurant... Chicken Ramen!

Itu pun Faqrie belanja... lama tak jumpa Faqrie... masih sama seperti dulu...

Faqrie sangat baik! *somehow bunyi macam tak ikhlas

lepas belanja chicken ramen, belanja chicken cottage lak...

huhu... thank you very much...

On the way to the Chicken Cottage, at the same time get to see what Cardiff City was like.

Supposedly they have wonderful beautiful places *itu apa yang Adam cakap...

Adam and Faqrie ordering Chicken Cottage

Wow, I did eat a lot that day...

dahlah masa lepak-lepak bilik Farah sempat mengunyah-ngunyah gak....

Tulah Faqrie...

suci, murni, innocent... apa lagi...

oh ya, Murah Hati!

Anne is so Sexy! *tiba-tiba je... miss her

On the way back, it was getting colder, and on the way there I wasn't wearing my coat, so when I was busy putting my coat on, walking outside, crossing the road....

I realize, f*k! I left my bag at Chicken Cottage

Nasib baik perasan... kalau tak...~~

On the way back, Faqrie was hugged by a fan and his name now is 'little red riding hood'

hehe... *it so scary and funny at the same time, when I think about it

Back at Anne's room we had a very very long pillow talk...

I guess, we are still young, so many problems and 'tak puas hati'

we just hope for the best.

The next morning, the four of us meet again and we take pictures at the Bute Park

(check out Facebook eh) and then we had free nasi lemak from a KMB senior, Ammar *unexpected ... happy

and we had to rush back to the airport to get back to our beloved Belfast...

It was a really short trip...

but it was good for a first time

I didn't get the chance to visit most part of Cardiff, but really it was nice that other than get new knowledge (SEED), I get to see other KMBians...

Come to think of it,

I didn't get to meet Syazana Omar, and Irma...

Ikram pun sempat jumpa...

*mungkin lain kali ...

Ps: I wish I was rajin enough to take more pics!

Pss: I wish I had stayed there longer... hahaa!

What I would like to conclude:-

Finally, I wouldn't be bother anymore if there are friends in Ireland saying they've been to Giant causeway... Me too!

I would say, these all are nature's beauty,

I blog about vanity stuff and etc...

lastly, it was a blast since we get to bond with fellow Malaysian in Belfast... You guys rocks... *especially seniors who come up with this trip

Ps: The night before this trip, I went out to celebrate my new friend's birthday, Padmini!

(she just to depressed about turning 19...*sabar jelah)

PSS: Insyaallah, saya memastikan saya update blog ini, believe me,

because I still love to blog about vanity and entertainment...

I don't understand why my fonts could not be in colour!!!
