This is my
very first official OOTD (outfit of the day) post. From now on I’ll post at
least one OOTD every week. So hopefully my wardrobe doesn’t run out of things
to show you. Teehee.
Very pretty pair of flats. It was love
at the first sight.
New
semester of my final year has started and I am not exactly pleased! It’s only
been 2 weeks but tutorial, assignment and stuff are already piling up! Especially
one particular subject which is totally a pain in the ass (anyone who has
taken it or is taking it would totally agree) which requires us to do tonnes of
project throughout the entire semester!
There was
some drama when it came to sorting out groups for that subject. In case you haven’t
already known, my uni besties are Angela and Mei Yan and we always do all our group
assignments together. In fact our uni lives revolve around each other and we’re
never seen without being together every single day! This subjects requires 5 in
a group so obviously 3 of us are going to stick together lah. Summore we’re
allowed to choose our own group mate for this subject. But things didn’t go
very smooth because for some reason Angela was absent for the first lesson. The
lecturer (whom I refuse to make any remark here in case it affects my grades at
a later point of time wtf) insisted that we were not supposed to reserve for
our friend since she was absent and she deserves to be in whatever group that’s
left! We intended to form our group with me, Meiyan, Angela and another 2
Indonesian Chinese (totally fine with them cause Indonesians are known for being
super hardworking). It was such a perfect arrangement but as if being sore for
our group being perfect and all, she had to kick out Angela for being absent
and put a black girl in our group! I was fcking pissed seriously, not that I’m
racist or what but the blacks in our uni are always either late or absent for
class! Okay maybe it’s not fair to be stereotyping them but obviously I would
prefer Angela, who is my bestie to be in our group!
As if
things weren’t bad enough, the black girl was behaving fcking bitchy and all! If
we had to go on with that arrangement, Angela would end up in a group with 2
black girls and 1 Malay guy who was the rudest guy I have ever encountered. He
stood up in the class and said my arrangement was bullshit and I was being
discriminative! Seriously he said bullshit! WHAT THE FUCK man I would have
given him 2 mlm if the lecturer wasn’t there lo mudafucka! Damn rude seriously.
The reason we didn’t want to be his group mate is because he used to be in a
group with those 2 Indonesians and apparently he was very lazy! Why would I want
to be doing work with someone like that??? I am aiming for HD! Wouldn’t want my
grades to be dragged down by some lazy ass! And now I have even more reasons
not be group with him because he is rude and disrespectful! Angela and Mei Yan
were surprised I didn’t rebuke him when he said those things (because usually I
would shout back like an angry bitch wtf) but you know lah, I wouldn’t react on
emotion as it might jeopardize my grades. Have to maintain a good image in
front of the lecturer wat. Teehee.
If you know
me well enough, you probably know I must have things my own way. In other
words, die die also want! So in the end we got Angela in our group! XD That
black girl gave up and decided to switch to another class. Yalar people don’t
want you in the group still so bu yao
lian refused to leave -.- I must admit that we’re quite some bitches though.
Err still, not guilty. LOLLL. Another girl who was absent wasn’t so lucky cause
her friends didn’t stand up for her (I don’t get it -.-). She was to be thrown
into the remaining group with that rude Malay guy so in the end she decided to
defer the subject. I would have done the same thing if I were her. HAHA.
Anyway,
enough ranting! Let me show you the current state of my study desk. So much
make up and shit I’m not even sure it can be called a study desk. Jeez. In fact
it’s been like that since last semester. Wonder how I managed to study
at all.
Just
finished reading Mitch Albom’s Five People You Meet in Heaven. Had been waiting
to read this long before this. No doubt an inspirational book. His other book
before this one was Tuesday with Morrie which I heard was good too.
Oh oh Jess
and I went to Empire Gallery for dinner during which we couldn’t decide what to
eat, then someone recommended me Sao Nam, a rather atas looking Vietnamese
cuisine shop there. Indeed, the price was quite atas as well.
I don’t
understand the purpose of serving raw taugeh and mint leaves. Taste horrible.
Beef pho
RM18.
A very big
yummy portion! Would have preferred it if they had given me fatter pieces of
beef though.
Some dry fish
cake noodles thingy which I can’t remember the name. See this is what happen
when I go eating without the intention of writing a good food review post. Grr.
RM16?
The noodles
resemble hor fun. Quite delicious despite the idea of eating hor fun with
crunchy keropok.
I’ll start
doing better review next time, I promise! That simply means I have to start
carrying my camera around again. Oh well.
HAHA right,
looking semi-pro and all. That’s not even my camera. Just borrowing it to look
cool since it matches my new t-shirt! ^^
(dammit I'm like so tanned here!)
Ending with
a random photo of me posing with Lays potato chips.

Here’s my
review on Indulgence, Ipoh
as promised! For those who haven’t come across this little luxurious bungalow
restaurant, it’s time you pay a visit for its beautiful interior. I can’t give
my opinion on the food though, since we’ve only tried the cakes.
To be
honest, the price is kinda too much for a small town like this. But I were to
live in Ipoh, I
would surely indulge there occasionally for the sake of its ambience! It’s
definitely a perfect hang out spot for high-tea and dinner.
In fact the
restaurant had won some kinda award of excellence! Not that we consumers really
care but still, it’s something for them to be proud of and of course, to add on
to the display.
The cake
selection.
Look, they
even have macarons! The sight of dessert itself is more than enough to make me
happy.
Newspaper
cuttings all over the wall. A place like this must have been featured quite
often.
Simple menu
in black and white. It wasn’t time for dinner yet so we only ordered some
drinks and cakes. Besides, our trip to Ipoh
was meant to try the local delicacies.
Andrew’s
Cappuccino.
My
Chocomallow – hot chocolate with marshmallow. Tastes as good as it looks.
Aldrich’s
TWG tea.
Apple
cheesecake.
Chocolate
banana which was especially good with the thick chocolate sauce!
The owner
made an effort to decorate every corner of the restaurant, even at the washroom
area. A wooden mirror and an antique fan have no doubt contributed to the
concept of the interior altogether.
And look
how they’ve substituted the conventional toilet signs! XD
Yes, I took
a photo of the toilet wtf.
Colourful
mural to brighten up the atmosphere.
Totally
adore their subtle colour scheme.
Some
special menu hand-written on the blackboard.
Over all, Indulgence
exemplifies a combination of vintage with a modern twist.
By the end
of the day, Andrew was so frustrated with me snapping photos here and there he
asked me to sit down and stop being so embarrassing wtf :( It was a lovely
place so I had to capture from every angle okay! Otherwise I wouldn’t have so
many pretty photos for this review. Teehee.
Have you indulged yet?
