🤭 My Current Guilty Obsessions

🤭 My Current Guilty Obsessions

9 January 2019

Before we even start with today's post (that was due two days ago but you didn't know that.... okay now well you do), let me just be very frank with you: I'm the most boring person to be around. What I mean is, just a year ago, I didn't have interests or hobbies that could be the spark factor in a conversation.

Not until just very recently, I started watching drama series and catching up on recent movies, and picking up new hobbies (they sort of died when I started my master's degree). For today, I'll be listing out my current obsessions that I'm in love with. Spot any that you can relate!


1. Poetry writing
YES, this is something super brand new that I sometimes catch myself doing in my spare time. Honestly, I've never been the sort of person to take a few moments to appreciate beautiful words and feel emotions on a deeper level. It's funny how that completely changed over the past 1-2 years and now I'm even collecting as many poetry books I can get my hands on!

This is an excerpt of one of my poems:

I used to start writing a few poems just out of practice for a couple of contests I wanted to participate in. That's why in my draft, each poem is entitled with a "P" (meaning practice) followed by a sequence number. Now, I write poems out of interest especially after listening to songs that click with me or even craft short verses for my friends. 


2. Epic Seven (Game)

Honestly, if I'm in somebody else's shoes and take one good look at myself right now, I won't be convinced that I'm much of a gamer. It's not that far from the truth too because I don't have enough patience one needs to play any games through till the end. I gave up with Sims Play after failing to get my Sims avatar pregnant for 3 weeks. Not to forget that I'm pretty crappy at gaming too! I've accepted that fact a long, long time ago.

Late last year, I was introduced to a new mobile game called Epic Seven and since then, I've been hooked to it every other day. It's really addictive and for someone who has the attention span of a fly, it's interesting and challenging enough to keep me going. Ironically, I haven't passed Level 10 yet and it's been 2-3 months since I started playing this game. UGH!

3. YouTube Channels & Videos

Since I'm on my long (SUPER TERRIBLY LONG) semester holiday, I have all the time in the world to binge through YouTube videos I've been wanting to catch up on. Here are just some of the few favourites in my subscription list:

• Lucy Moon

I absolutely LOVE Lucy's laidback and personal chats with her viewers. She talks from everyday issues to relationships, makeup, girl-to-girl advises and shares frequent vlogs. And I just like her accent (that's pretty much the whole reason really but she's cool too!).

• Shazz Zainuddin

When it comes to this particular YouTuber, I don't even know where to begin. HAHA. She's super quirky and funny in all of her videos. Her personality is really likeable and honestly, she can light up your day anytime.

• The Fitness Marshall

I'm at my laziest when it comes to dragging myself out of the house or let alone my own room. However, I'm moderately conscious of my health and well-being (note: sometimes) and so I'm continuously finding ways to motivate myself to still exercise even if it means not having to go outside. I've been following this YouTube channel for 2-3 years and let me tell you, it is FUN. You should seriously check them out whenever you want to work out from home!

4. Drama Series

• How I Met Your Mother (HIMYM)

I'm currently in Season 4 and I'm loving all the drama and humour that make this whole series AWESOME. I just wish I knew about HIMYM sooner. AHFKLAJFLDAJLK!!!!

• Game of Thrones (GOT)

I'm down to the second season and I have two episodes left to go. I've been postponing my GOT Season 2 "journey" experience because I just CAN'T bring myself to watch what will happen next. I'm emotionally attached to my characters. I AM WEAK. T_T

Alright, so that's basically all that I have time for in today's post.

🚗🌫I Have Moved (Again)

🚗🌫I Have Moved (Again)

4 January 2019

Oh no, she has done it again!

Okay, before anybody freaks out and call the authorities to have me arrested for moving so often, I can justify why I did what I did. Or at least I can try.

To be completely honest with you, I only moved to Wordpress (my previous blog) because my actual blog on Blogger had problems with the coding when I was messing around with it. To make this story short, I don't have access to it. Besides, I've always loved Blogger's simple writing platform which is why this will most probably be my final blog resting place (wow).

Anywhoooooo... Like I've promised, I'm going to update this blog twice a week to really keep this blog up and running as it used to be.

New blog posts on: Mondays & Fridays

In the meantime, don't forget to follow me and drop your own blog link below! I loveeee to read blog posts so I welcome yours!

🤫Too Much Information Tag

🤫Too Much Information Tag

3 January 2018

Ohmygosh, she's going to say it!

Hello everyone! Today, I thought it'd be a good idea if I dedicate one post on a rather popular topic — TMI or Too Much Information Tag. I'm inspired to make one by the lovely Atheera Dayana who also uploaded an interesting post last year.


I'm not sure what to expect to be honest although I've briefly scanned through the questions a while back. Having a rather faulty memory doesn't help either so I only have the adequate idea of what to answer. But I've heard that that's the best part about any tag at all.

Okay, let's get started!

• What are you currently wearing?

My favourite T-shirt that I got from the Hat Run 2017 marathon and comfy grey trousers.

• Have you ever been in love?

Yessss.

• Have you ever had a terrible breakup?

I've never been in an intimate relationship before so it's a definite solid 'no'. 

• How old are you?

Young, fabulous, and sometimes a little clumsy. That's all you need to know, honey.

• How tall are you?

I'm a proud 1.59 m. Let a girl appreciate her height for once. I've never been this tall before. Haha!

• How much do you weigh?

I consider myself quite overweight (fat ratio wise I mean), around 52-53kg. Give or take.

• Do you have any piercings?

I used to wear earrings but they always get caught on my inner shawl (is that what we call them in English? lol). And no, it wasn't pretty when things went downhill from there. But I miss wearing them and having them blinking at me when I wore them.

• Do you have any tattoos?

When I was little, we thought it was cool to put those super temporary childish fake tattoos that you just have to stick to your skin. It fades over time but it hurts like hell if you scrub it off.

• What’s your favorite drink?

I always order for either of these — Iced Milo drink, mango juice, or apple juice.

• What’s your favorite song?

I don't have a particular favourite song but I'm currently in LOVE with all the songs in The Greatest Showman movie soundtrack.

• What’s your Zodiac sign?

I'm an Aquarius. heheh...

• How long does it take you to shower?

Honestly, I whizz in the shower. 10 minutes top or even less.

• What’s favorite show?

I'm not a TV person so I'm rarely glued in front of one, but I occasionally watch The Graham Norton Show or the Big Bang Theory. Who does not love them anyways?

• What’s your favorite band?

I don't really have a particular favourite.

• Something you really miss?

My friends from uni! We'll be heading to our internship places and might not see each other for a while. Noooooo....

• Where do you go when you’re sad?

Somewhere quiet and private where I can look through the problem at hand and sort myself out the best I can.

• How long does it take you to get ready in the morning?

On a school day or days when I'm expected in the morning, I would be up and about 1 hour 30 minutes EXACTLY before I have to head out to wherever I'm needed. I time everything like I'm paranoid that way. Hah!

• Have you ever been in a physical fight?

I guess joining Taekwondo and Karate don't count, but as a kid in primary school, there were plenty of times where I willingly joined in. I was a tomboy if you haven't guessed that part so I hung out with the boys and we had play fights sometimes.

• Quality you look for in a partner?

Dependable, patient, and someone who can get along with my 2AM talks.

• What’s your favorite color?

REDDDD

• Loud music or soft?

I don't like loud music to be honest. It scares me that I might actually go deaf after having to wear specs for almost 2 decades. That technically means that I'm partially blind since I can't live without them. Haha!

• Favorite Quote?

Put yourself first. Always.

• Favorite actor?

Got a crush on Domhnall Gleeson!

• The reason you joined YouTube?

I was obsessed with Booktubers and reading for so long that I thought I could join in. My channel has been rather quiet for a while and I'm not sure what to upload in there for the time being.

• Do you have any fears? What they are?

I am absolutely TERRIFIED of being in the dark and standing at great heights. Mostly of the dark because I literally freeze whenever I'm caught in a room with low lights or total darkness.

• What’s the last thing that made you cry?

This is going to sound so funny but I actually cried over a story online that I was reading just 2 days ago. I cried like a baby from underneath the duvet.

• Meaning behind your YouTube Name?

It's called Bookworm14Cats and it's not like what you're thinking. I don't have 14 cats at home but I do love the idea.

• Last time you said you loved someone?

This week to my parentsss.

• Last book you read?

Hunger from my favourite author Michael Grant. I LOVE THESE BOOKS.

• The book you’re currently reading?

Moby Dick and Hunger.

• Last show you watched?

I honestly can't remember. HAHA!

• Last place you were?

My room for a good couple of hours while the technician fixed our air cond. I was dying of boredom in there.

• Last sport you played?

Karate trainings.

• Who’s the last person you talked to?

My sister in the kitchen as I peeled and poked my finger with dead shrimps.

• Last song you sang?

IDGAF by Dua Lipa. You soooo have to listen to this song.

• Favorite chat up line?

Gosh, I'm lame. I don't know.

• Do you have a crush?

Yep, on Domhnall Gleeson. Just without the beard.

• The relationship between you and the person you last texted?

Club committee. We're working on an ebook project.

• Favorite food?

I love (and without fail) mee curry, my mum's bubur lambuk and everything else that's magical she makes.

• Place you want to visit?

I want to visit an art gallery so bad because I've never been to one.

• What’s the last time you kissed someone?

None. lol.

• Last time you were insulted?

Can't remember exactly when but it was about my choice in speaking mostly in English.

• Favorite flavor of sweet?

I don't like sweets actually, but I love chocolate especially Mars bars. Yummm!

• What instruments do you play??

None, but I would love to learn how to play the piano and violin.

• Favorite piece of jewelry?

I think jewelry is pretty but I've almost never managed to keep one in one piece or wear one for long.

• Have you ever used it?

Yes, and it was a pretty ring that was one size too big but I wore it everywhere. 

• Last time you hung out with anyone?

With three of my favourite people - Luke, Ainal, and Naem.

• What turns you on?

Cat pics on my instagram and Twitter. Safe to say that they conquer my life.

• What turns you off?

People who don't respect others and exaggerate situations on social media when it isn't even that big of a deal. People need to chill.

• Who should answer these questions next? Tag them……

Everyone who reads this post!

I'm waitinggggg. And thank you for reading my post. I really hope that you like it and if you have comments to add, don't hesitate!
