10/07/2015- My first friend// best friend// closest sister's from secondary school actual birthday was today, and so even if I really didn't feel like going ice skating, I still gave in and decided to go enjoy the day with her at Sunway Pyramid.
Since Karmun had class until afternoon, my bruh from another mother and I came earlier to Sunway for some shopping. As an extra note for you all, this guy here is actually the best guy friend // sister // fashion advisor you could ever have when it comes to dressing up and go out. He can literally mix and match your outfit from clothing to accessories, he nails basically everything. Although he looks like a girl right now because he shoves all this hair into a beanie and wears contacts which makes his vision go haywire, he's still a he. (Apparently he was mistaken as a girl twice today!)
I have a weird obsession with my new tribal bag from H&M which explains the non-stop photos of this bag and watch (and sometimes, feet)
So basically we headed over to H&M since they were having really great sales, but what we did was more of window shopping than legit shopping. He's actually the first guy who encouraged me to go for Indie wear since I'm some sort of a indie style fan (more on the tribal patterns).
So he picked out this for me to try on, I didn't get both of them because I was short on cash, but it gave me a different perception of style. I might go for this style one day, step by step. It's like a total different feel and vibe from my usual shorts and tees.
"Step out of your comfort zone and try other styles" was what he said after I called the outfit weird. But I ended up liking it alot after scrolling through my camera roll for a million times. Not really sorry for posting this very vain photo of myself because not that many people read or know the existence of this blog anyway. HAHA
We're also planning to get this really cute floral cap together some day. It looked really fancy, cool and hippie. The best match for a plain outfit.
Guy friend friendship goals: matching pink floral caps
We had lunch at a newly opened restaurant called "Hungry Bunch" which is located on the third floor, at the blue atrium. It's a Western cuisine and the price is very reasonable which was honestly our of expectation. I initially believed it to be a quite pricey restaurant to dine in, but the price was indeed reasonable for the food quality.
The restaurant was quite small, but it wasn't too crammed. It had a rustic, oldie, mysterious feel which brings out the main choice of material for the settings and furniture- wood. It has a nice lighting, bright enough to eat yet a little dark but not gloomy.

I ordered a set consisting of a drink, soup of the day and a meal. I was craving for Aglio Olio since the last time I ate it, and fortunately, they do serve this dish here.
This might not be the best aglio olio I have ever eaten, but it is considered one of the best, for me because it has a really unique spiciness to it. Everyone on the table actually commented on it being too spicy, bur for me- a chili // spice lover, this was a great combination!
The food was really up to expectation and it was really reasonable, in fact, it wasn't too pricey just good enough for college students who still live off their parent's allowance
These are cards taken from a cafe called VCR. These were from Tyng Hann (and he gave me one, I love these stuff for some reason). I really find these pictures artistic and the message behind send such a huge impact on human.
"You're Beautiful"
This made my day, this cafe is seriously doing well in bringing a smile to people's face. I haven't even been to the cafe, and I cam already imagine how relaxing and awesome that place will be. Looking forward to visiting them soon, but for now, it'll just be a picture of their cards :)
Our next stop was the ice rink. FNBE actually helps in life, because I decided to do some "research" on the ice skating price and guess what? They have an extraordinary promotion which is craaaaaazy! They now charge only RM10 for weekdays and RM15 for weekends, I think it was double the price previously! It saves a ton knowing about this promotion, luckily I did my "research" because none of us knew about this promotion, feeling kinda-really proud right now.
Back to the same spot I was at back in January
Ma family <3
Yay! Managed to fit into the skates perfectly on my first try. This is called progress and learning from experience!
Trying to get a nice shot of my skates and shoes. Thank you again Hans.
So an incident happened and I had to post this because it was somehow memorable.
"Told you we should have gone somewhere safer, like the cinema". But you insisted, so I gave in because I am a fabulous best friend // sister. Don't be too reckless next time and be careful alright! Recover from your pains and headaches I can't afford to lose someone like you alright, which is why I said I wouldn't know what to do if you fainted there and then.
The actual reason to why we took this photo together was because the ice police actually told us to mark // hashtag this as #friendshipgoals. I find this kinda silly to be hashtagged, but if you look deeper into it, as a best friend, you wouldn't mind being dragged into your best friend's shit.
BE CAREFUL OKAY LADY.
This is my second time skating, the first was this year in January. I think that I have made some improvement because I can, the least, balance myself and move about a little without help from the side barriers at the side of the ice rink. In January, I was totally hopeless and I couldn't skate without aid. I'm not good right now, but at least I didn't on my butt as much as previously.
Some illegal and legal photos of us at the ice rink, see I can balance. Throws confetti*
And this marks the end of our ice rink time, fortunately I didn't sprain any ankles or break any bones of else my parents would have threw a huge fit. And honestly, I don't really want to end up in the emergency room because of a broken back anymore, not actually broken but a hurt back, you get what I mean.
And how could we leave without more photos?
I have a serious obsession with shoes and watches.
Cr to Hans for this so-called "not mainstream" photo
Nope, apparently you can't join our squad.
Best friends// sisters// family since 2011 when we were still nobodies.
I feel so blessed to have them in my life because both of them actually barged their ways through my barrier and changed part of my life. Without them, I would definitely not be able to stand as who I am today. Best friends till forever.
Happy 18th birthday girl <3
Promise me to take care of yourself alright, and don't get hurt physically, mentally and emotionally.
Love you forever, from our past lifetime to our next lifetime!
Family <3
My birthday friend here, she actually demanded a birthday card from me, but sorry, I'm really sorry for not being able to make one for you in time. Maybe it'll be done the next time we meet :) For now, this will be my gift to you, remember to keep it in your wallet or hang it on your bag!
Heart shapes because we love each other and would be there for each other no matter what.
Two of the wallet photo prints. Happy birthday and happy memories alright <3
A glimpse of the other photos we took that aren't particularly fantastic.
My shoes look better, that's why they're in the photo.
Note: main point is actually the skating tags.
Met up with someone special after our ice skating session. It has been around three months since we've ever seen each other and a lot has actually happened between us. I'm not going into detail, and I don't want to go into details and remembering everything that happened but what's important is that things are actually going smoother right now. Yes, thank you Karmun for letting him join us for dinner okay? You're the best sister ever <3 <3 <3
<3
And no matter how much the distance between us is, we can overcome all this shit together okay?
The road might have been hard, but we've come far, not really that far, but at least we did it together. A year and a half of an unofficial relation ship and 6 months into an official relationship isn't easy to put up with, our different styles and personalities takes the difficulty level up another notch.
We might be different, but thank you for trying to understand me, for believing in me, for being there for me. I'm not good with words, I'm uncomfortable with PDA, I get triggered easily, I flip out a lot, I can't be your ideal girl, but I'll try to be better.
And when I have my hand held out, struggling to mend the relationship, don't turn your back, don't let go, because it takes more than two persons to complete less than three.
My weird// cra obsession for shoes and watches kick in again.
I chose his shoes. Just sayin.
We had dinner at BBQ Plaza, one of my favourite places to eat! However, dinner was quite disappointing because they changed their menu. Now, each dish has shrunk so much that there is only a small portion of everything only.
Thank you dearest Chee Hoe baba for the lunch and dinner treat. Your eldest daughter will always remember this even if I have a bunch of younger sisters whom I don't know the existence of.
And so after dinner comes desserts! Ice cream!
I don't see you as often as when I was in form 3, the last time we've actually talked and spent time with each other was a year ago on my birthday. If you didn't remind me, I wouldn't have realized how long we haven't met up.
Even if it has been ages since we've talked to each other, just remember to pick up my call in the middle of the night if I come to you crying about life. I'll try to spare some time for you from now on and not ignore your messages, just like how you never ignore mine, oops.
Enjoy your ice cream okay, once a year only since we only meet up once a year. Although it isn't as much as what you have treated me for my birthday, but it's better than nothing. If we ever meet up for your birthday, then that'll be a different story, but judging from how busy you are with your social life I highly doubt the chance of meeting up with you.
Now, if you realize and figure out how to explain about my changes, remember to drop me a message or voice message since you are lazy to type, sometimes. I'm actually curious about it, so you have to tell me before you forget how I look like.
Okay? Okay. I don't care.
When you're best friends, you treat each other each other's ice cream even if it sounds silly.
And so this marks the end of Karmun's birthday celebration at sunway!

To the first friend I have ever made in Sentosa, to the first friend that lasted from the very beginning of my secondary life till now, to the best friend who makes me feel like a legit best friend, happy very very very very belated birthday. This will be the birthday wish I was supposed to whatsapp you on friday midnight but never did, so here it is, don't expect a really touching essay, because as you know, I'm not good with words. Just know that, all of this came from the bottom of my heart, so don't skip any lines, I might die of heart break if I ever find out, it might be lengthy, so please put up with me.
2015, Twenty fifteen- Our 6th year of friendship, from being loner librarians to sisters. Sometimes I sit down and wonder how far have we actually come about since Form 1? I never saw myself as the best friend who would last for years on end. Every friendship which I have made either breaks tragically, slowly drifts apart or just disintegrate into particles which then disappear into thin air. But we didn't, and you don't know how grateful I am for being able to be best friends// sisters with you.
We were never in the same class, so we never hung out in class or during breaks. The only time we had for each other was during duty time in the library, which ended in From 3 because someone broke the rule of staying on Thursdays. But that isn't important, the important thing is, I believe in our friendship, that our friendship will last till forever. You actually made me believe that friends don't need to be together each day to be close.
Previously, we meet once a week, and on that day, we would be stuck to each other like glue doing work but mostly talking to each other. We shared secrets, not everything to the detailed parts, but we knew everything about each other. Things that would cause chaos if the world knew, things that would cause huge complications in life if it was exposed, things that we should only keep to ourselves. Yep, we've gone through that, been through that,and still go through this.
I actually like how our shopping dates end up with us talking and strolling into random clothing shops. We talk and walk aimlessly and mindlessly, gossiping about others, talking about ourselves, expressing buried feelings and thoughts. We do all this, which fails us when it comes to shopping for stuff. At times like this, we aren't even window shopping, we basically treat the whole mall as a walking cafe. Times like this, it never happens with anyone else other than you. I don't know why, maybe it's because we're so close even if we don't talk to each other every single day. It's as if each meet up session is like a long lost conversation of everyday talk. And the best part it- it isn't always awkward talking or listening. It is sometimes awkward in figuring how to open my mouth and tell you stuff that has been going on, but it in the end, it still gets out.
I always feel really really relaxed while talking to you, being with you. We can just sit there in silence and understand what's going in each other's mind. We can label the people we talk about with alphabets and numbers yet never get confused. We can just say stuff like "you know they this this then that and stuff like that" and still understand each other perfectly.
We might both have people who are important to ourselves in our own life, me in college: you in your study life. But at least, other than them, we still have each other, and a few others, to rely on and we with.
Not everyone is blessed to have a best friend like this in their lives. Thank you for appearing in my life, and for being there as a best friend// sister// family. If you ever need me, give me a call, I'll try my best to spare time to listen to you rant. Or we could hang out and go for desserts, as long as my submission date or your exams isn't on the very next day.
Don't step too deep, I don't want you to get hurt.
Take care of yourself and don't be too careless.
Be happy, and don't fake a smile around me.
I'll always be here for anything.
Love you to bits.
Happy very very very belated 18th birthday.
<3
