Have you ever woken up and felt like ur heart is smiling?

Thats how i felt twice this month! Its like a mixture of being relieved, ecstatic, happy! Its a good feeling. I guess this is one of my favourable months.

Haven't had the chance to update my blog lately because i came to visit my family.

So anyway, back to that wonderful, out of this world feeling. I spoke to my father and there was this really personal matter that was worrying me sick and i needed, or might as well say desperately wanted his blessings. And i got it!

2nd reason that made my heart smile was that i found out i passed my exams! All of them, with really good grades. Im proud of myself that i made it. It was difficult, and for sometime i really doubted myself. I doubted if i was able to make it.

My mind was absolutely not in my head. I was just worried the whole time and i wasn't able to concentrate. But even when i wasn't able to concentrate my books were always in front of me.

If i made it through that, i know i can always make it. Ill always push myself harder I'm forever grateful to god.

Thank you :*

"I have a dream"

Legendary speech by Dr. Martin Luther King!

Honestly people, if u havent watched this before, I don't know which planet do you live on.

Weird, But i really wish he was still alive :')

Its amazing how you can feel what he is saying, man i had goosebumps! this speech was truly from the heart. no wonder why many people know the phrase "I have a dream" and its association with M.L.K, even if they don't know what it was about.

This speech was 100 years after the Emancipation Proclamation which freed millions of slaves during Abraham Lincoln's time. It was on the 28th of Aug. 1963.

The speech was delivered during the march on Washington for jobs and freedom.

"I have a dream, that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. I have a dream today!


Thank you Dr. Martin Luther king for being a man that fought for equality. You Inspire me.

Things have changed for the African Americans, No doubt. 


But it saddens me to say that Africans (Not african-americans, just africans in general)  within themselves discriminate!


 No one should EVER feel that he/she is more superior to others! Never! 





Jewelry misfortunes

I had an appointment with the uni. immigration for monday the 8th regarding my passport. Wasn't sure if they'd give it to me or not though, they just told me to come and check. 

so on friday the 5th, i called to tell them that i will not be anticipating anymore delays because i need to run a few errands before my departure date which is on the 11th, and those errands require my passport to be with me.

After i was done with my speech the lady told me that my passport was already ready and that i should just come monday morning to pick it up. I was really happy, and so today i went gift shopping for my family.

I had a good time with my housemate, got my ear pierced and bought all the things on my list. everything was so good. UP UNTIL...

after i returned home, I was skyping with my sister and i wanted to show her some cute bracelets i got them ( her and my other sister), and the stuff i got my mom, only to discover that the plastic bag with all the jewelry i bought was missing...

I went to ask my housemate if by mistake maybe the bag got mixed with hers, but to no avail, i went downstairs to trace my steps, and again, nothing to be found.

that plastic bag had 2 necklaces, a watch, and 2 sets of bracelets.

I tried to think where i might have left it, but all the cabs we got into, we made sure we looked behind us before we left. Maybe the last cab, because we were kind of in a rush to get home since we were really tired already, or maybe somewhere in the mall? uhh i don't know.

I guess ill just go back tomorrow and rebuy.. again. a lot of money, but what to do

My incident with "The big people"

so since i'm a student in a foreign country, its only normal to submit my passport every six months or every year (depending on your attendance, exam results etc) for visa renewal.

I've been in this country for 3 years now, and i've never been so pissed off at the immigration as i am now.

So here is the story:

My visa was expiring sometime around april this year so i went down to the immigration counter at my university to give them my passport for renewal. usually the process takes less than 2 months, but they just tell you to come after 2 months, just in case, i guess. which was perfect for me because in june i was finishing my termly exams, and i wanted to go back home, see my family and all.

Now june comes, i'm done with my exams, pumped up and excited about going back home to see my family, i proceed to go down to the counter to collect my passport, only to be told that my passport is not ready yet.

*PAUSE*

WHY IS MY PASSPORT NOT READY YET?! WELL BECAUSE THE IMMIGRATION HAD A SYSTEM BREAKDOWN... SAY WHAAAT?! 

yes a system breakdown. why on earth would i be told this after 2 MONTHS? so 2 months they've been just sitting around waiting for the damn system to fix itself? I mean 2 months is a long time! why would they tell me such a thing when its time for me to receive my passport?!

It didn't make any sense. I was furious, and still am! I have plans. its not my fault that your system is not working. i've waited for 2 months, and i've come to collect my passport on the day i was told to come, it wasn't like i came earlier or anything!

anyway, its past the due date of collection now, and i'm still waiting, and my holiday is passing by...

The Intro

So this is my first post on my blog, and i'm excited! I've always liked writing, but never committed 100% so i'd try my best to make sure i have regular entries, every once in awhile :)

At this point, I really have no ideas or stories but lets just rant about how excited i am to have a blog. 

THE BLOG will basically encompass a variety of topics and random stories, something like a memoir. I'm doing some soul searching currently, actually been doing it for quite sometime. Reading HOLY books and all, so i would probably, in the near future make an entry about that. I'm also currently having an issue with my passport, YES my passport! which is making me go nuts, and that would probably be my next entry, and some more random fun, exciting (I hope) entries to come.

Since this post is called The Intro, might aswell give a brief introduction about myself. Im a lady, aged 20, Im pursuing my bachelors degree, majoring in International Business Management and I live in Kuala Lumpur.

So anyway, I hope this blog experiment turns out ok.

Cheers
