MOTORCYCLE GRAND PRIX 2017

I love weekends so much that it hurts my feeling when it's weekdays. Plus it's already end of October of which the time that all of us (the students) will be getting super busy with assignments, group projects and whatnot. I swear i burn the midnight oil literally every night that i even feel like there's no oil left to burn for the coming days because i'm already zombie af since i sleep for only 3 to 4 hours per day. Zzzz. Wait, plot twist! I'm actually not even a zombie yet hahaha. Such a drama queen. But it's not that i enjoy giving up on my hobby (read: sleep on my bed) and only sleep on the couch everyday because there's loads of work to be done. Somehow, i feel grateful for the energy that i have. I mean, my body is not easily tired lately. Perhaps because of the peer pressure since everybody is working very hard, that my body as well force herself to not being a weak lamb. Like, even though yesterday i only sleep for 2 hours and today, i still can up all night to do this and that. Idk about you, but i feel amazing lol. Let's see how i'll be in two weeks time. I wonder if the word amazing is still appearing. Ha!

Ok why am i here again in the first place? SHELL MALAYSIA MOTOR GP 2017! I've always wanted to go to Sepang to experience a race since like forever. But i don't really make any initiative to go there back then. And when my high school girl, Miraz posted about the Motor GP on the WhatsApp Group, i absentmindedly, straightly booked two tickets from her. It's only RM60 per ticket for the Hillstand. But God knows how hot the weather was there. I even effed up and get a sunburn. But maybe just our luck, Pak Long Pijan was there too. It's us who contacted him first to asked about the parking area and whatnot. And then he told us to meet him somewhere and poof! MAIN GRANDSTAND PASS FOR BOTH OF US! I can't even contained my excitement when he told us about the pass. May Allah bless Pak Long Pijan.

I love the idea of women riding a superbike that i wanna be one of them. Well, this may just be a wishful thinking but whatever. Hahaha. Perhaps someday i might get myself one. God knows. Me and my sister were literally in our zones and dreaming of owning one superbike when we were there. So dreamy that i don't even have a time to feel insecure with the pretty, super skinny models that were also there. Though i was figuratively like a fat ass potato when i'm next to them. Lol. And the Grand Prix was indeed grand. So much excitement, so much to look forward to. Even the sound was too loud that i can't even hear anything but the good quality engine sounds. I had so much fun though i know nothing about Grand Prix. Yeah, i had fun. And that's all that matters. Another one crossed off the bucket list. Alhamdulillah. 

WHEN WE WERE YOUNG

"We were sad of getting old it made us restless.

Oh i'm so mad i'm getting old it makes me reckless"

MID SEMESTER BREAK

Sarah Yazmin's Graduation Day (15/10/2017) at UiTM Shah Alam

Syaqirin Norazizi's Graduation Day (17/10/2017) at UiTM Segamat

Statistics ASEAN Run 2017 (21/10/2017) at Putrajaya Corporation

So my mid semester break already come to an end. Time is so rude for running out fast. Even though i know that time and tide wait for no man (or woman, indeed). But at least let me breathe or give me another week or two to sleep and rest (?) I don't even remember the last time i get a decent sleep in my life tbh. Ugh. Okay i'm talking crap rn. Cause i just woke up in the morning, feel tired and decided to blog first. Who's to blame now?

So far, my mid semester break was kinda productive. Except for the fact that i miss one hiking activity with my sister and cousins because i was too lazy to wake my ass up from the bed that morning. And needless to mention, i got sudden acne breakout on my face on that particular morning. Like, the previous days before, i glance in the mirror and proudly notice that my skin is close to clear. But then i went to Segamat, the weather was scorching hot, and of course i take the blame for not washing my face with all my heart on the night before, and boom! Acne. It's frustrating, to say the least. Thankfully, my skin is okay now. Only there's still one acne under my nose that i know will result to scar later on. Oh lord, please listen to my plea. Grant me that clear skin i have desired for a long. Amen!

Back to the reason why i'm here; MY BESTFRIEND AND MY LITTLE SISTER ARE FINALLY GRADUATED! Out of frying pan and into the fire gals! I'm such a proud sister to both. UiTM has moulded them very well. To those with narrow minded views who still believe that UiTM is not a good alma mater, i bet you never see how good our students and alumni are doing inside and outside the country. And i bet you never met my bestfriend and my sister as well. Ha! To my bestfriend, Sarah Yazmin and my blood sister, Syaqirin Norazizi, throw those mortarboard higher the next time once you guys have completed your Master and Degree. And then reach the sky. Your potentials are endless. My prayers are always with you two. May Allah bless always. Much love. 

Oh, i also joined a 3km marathon last Saturday. It was fun. My first ever marathon i guess. Nevertheless, since my legs don't remember the last time we run that far. I bet it was during my PLKN which was 6 years ago. So yeah, i'm having running pain on my upper legs right now. I know this pain will last up to 2 or maybe 3 days cause i've been in this situation too many times before. And please don't remind me about how piece of cake 3km marathon was. Cause it's not that i didn't acknowledge the fact that other people are doing 10km up to 20km marathon but hello, other people may say, better to be sore than sorry. But since i'm not like other people, i feel sorry for myself because of this sore legs that result from the "only" 3km marathon. Cause i always deserved so much better. Lol. Why do i sound like a pettifogger?

And just like that, it's already Monday. End of my 1 week holiday, and i got tons of workload waiting for me to finish them. I really just can't wait to finish this semester. But i don't want to nag around about how hard and how stressful my master studies or whatever. Because in all honestly, everyone is struggling. Let's pray for the best. Eventually, this too shall pass. Amen!

AVENE THERMAL SPRING WATER

Tbh, i have lot of work to do atm, so i promise myself that this is going to be one real quick post. 15 minutes break, promise!

So, i went to SASA this evening hoping to only spend about RM30 there but then i splurged up to RM85 on only mascara and this damn spring water. But somehow i didn't regret that much since i really need a brand new 35 bucks mascara for my bestfriend's and my sister's convocation day this coming week. And the other 50 bucks on trio pack (50 ml each) of Avène Thermal Spring Water was kinda worth every penny. It was a buy 2 free 1 deal (it gets me everytime). Actually, i was looking for a makeup finishing / setting spray. Not because i need one. Only cause i want one lol. And i ended up with this spring water because the beauty consultant suggested me so.

I honestly know nothing about spring water or whatever associated with it before. Probably because i don't really need one in the first place. But hey, i guess my skin is thirsty for it ever since today fgs! Wait, what's so special about this water darl? You just bought it and have it with you for about 3 hours are you kidding me that you already make a review about this thing? RM50 for only 3 cans of water in white metallic bottle with spray nozzles. Is it sprinkled with unicorn dust or confetti to make your skin glow? Well, no honey, it's really just water. Haha!

So, after minutes of unnecessary research on Google like of course, where else? It's said that the precious water is from the Cévennes Mountains in Avène, France. I don't even know how to pronounce it correctly since French is not my first language, whatever. It's basically magical water that said will solve a ton of your beauty woes. Well, let's see the magic on me skin later on. It's one of a kind. You can do the reading more by clicking here: Avène Thermal Spring Water. I find it very convenient that i can take it wherever i go inside my handbag because it's travel sized. Beautifully cooling but never too cold. I already sprayed it on my face only a couple of hundred times because that's just me. I get easily obsessed with new things. And hope this one will suit my skin. Better be worth it. Amen to that! Okay back to work fiqazizi.

COST AND WORTH

If you wake up and don't make yourself coffee that you bought at the grocery store earlier this month, then out for work to finally stop at Starbucks and spend RM18 for a cup of coffee, then i guess you know exactly what i mean. Like, isn't it bizarre that people are patiently (or maybe not so) waiting in a over crowded parking lot, spend precious time, to free up so they can walk inside, wait in an even longer line and pay more for a cup of coffee (?) Does it actually worth the exertion? Idk. You tell yourself.

I believe that the only things we spend time and money on are things that we believe are worth more than they cost. But somehow, i kinda feel that sometimes (not really sometimes tbh), we don't buy certain things because of what it's worth or because we really need them. But it's because of our must-have-it-right-now culture that lead to immense anxiety in life. As living proof, there are many who will be jumping at the chance to be the first on their block to have the new iPhone X. Is anyone willing to pay such high price for a mobile phone? You bet. On top of that, for me, it is 100% okay if you have no money issue at all. Because fgs, if you have a lot of money, you can buy anything your heart desires and whatever price is never a problem. But what about those who spend money faster than they make it or even spend money they don't even have for trivial things like an iPhone X while their phones are still functioning well? More often than not, it leads to accruing at least some debt and saving too little for a rainy day. But why do people still do it? Does it really make us happy? Like, really?

I can say that it's actually a psychologically verified thing. Buying things make us visualise ourselves as in a 'better' life. Especially when we dressed nice, surrounded by cool things and looking expensive as a bonus. It actually brings no harm until we recklessly spending for that 'verification' that leads to overspending. Well, i can conclude that binging on things you don't even need in the first place is way worse than food binging at night lol. And sure as for me, i can blame the society and the stores all i want because of this. But in the end, i can only be aware of how my brain is falling for these tricks *insert related emojis*

Last but not least, a note to self as well of course; Don't buy stuff you can't afford, with money you don't have, to impress people that don't even care AT ALL. Act your wage. You shall be fine.
