Terror at a car park

I'm sure everyone has read about the incident where a lady was abducted by two men in a car park of The Curve shopping mall but luckily she managed to escape as reported in the newspapers yesterday. 

I were so terrified when I read about the news as I always travel alone. I feel sorry for her that the incident happened but at the same time I feel glad that she managed to escape from the terror. She was such a calm lady during the incident and brave enough to fight off with the abductors. Though she suffered some scratches and bruises, lost all her belongings but she was fortunate to escaped from the nightmare. She also wrote about the incident in her Facebook account . 

Sometimes, anything can happens to us at anywhere without our expectation. So, please be extra careful and alert all the time especially when you are alone. The rapists/ abductors will hunt for anyone regardless on the age, appearance, poor or rich ladies out there. We also hope that this will not happens to our loved ones and friends or everyone of us. We want a peaceful country!!

Few ways to avoid those incident happens to us:

1) Always walk on busy streets filled with pedestrians cause your best defence is having other people nearby. 

2) Do not hitch a ride with a strangers.

3) Avoid walking to the car park alone. Ask the security guard to escort you to your car. (This is one of their responsibility).

4) Not to wear too much jewelries on your body as this may attracts the thief or rapist.

5) Take a glance around you before you walk to your car and be alert of your surrounding before open your car's door. 

6) Once open the car's door, get into the car straight away and lock the door. You can place your shopping bags by turning you body to the back. *This how I did all the times if I travel alone. I don't even turn on my car engine first. 

It may be more ways to avoid this but I just named a few which is the most important, I think of. 

It's sad, but that's how society has come to be. 

So, ladies out there, please be extra careful all the times, please!! Guys, please try to be with your loved ones wherever they go. Doesn't matter is your girlfriend, mother or friends. 

Family trip to Bukit Malawati & Sekinchan

Family trip to Bukit Malawati and Sekinchan was so blissful. 

Bukit Malawati was a historical place, I bet many of you forgotten about it. *Go get back your history book and read about it or use google*

Nothing much of the trip. Just want to relax and not so stress with our routine tasks. 

As we reached, we bought tour ride to get up the hill. According to my dad, last time they use to drive their own up the hill. Now, we need to pay for it.

My bro, me and my sis on the ride. Waiting patiently for the ride to start the journey.

When we reached, there were a lot of monkeys waiting for everyone. Those monkeys were so wild but cute at the same time. Why I said so? They go for everyone who hold something on their hands. They will robbed like none of your business. LOLs. Don't play play with them.

They we off to Sekinchan, a peaceful fish and paddy village located at Selangor.

Mom and dad.

Sun set.

Me. Don't get cheated with my shirt. I'm NOT in Bali. FML.

We had all these for lunch. You name it. Mostly were seafood as Sekinchan famous with cheap and nice seafood.

While on the way back to home, we dropped by an Orchird's Farm near Batu Arang.

So many types of orchids. Applause to the owner.

Mum bought these two types of orchid. Nice?

I also saw Nepenthes sp. there too. It remind me on my field trip at Sabah. I miss my uni-mates at Sabah. 

Although family trips were short yet, everyone getting together once in a while was such a joy-able moment.

The 4Rs for Emotional Eating Habits

Everyone loves to eat. We cannot survive without foods! Regardless on what you like to eat either it's healthy or not, one main point is to exercise regularly. Exercise helps to burn calories in our body. 

I, myself seldom off to gym or exercise regularly. But I loves to eat whatever I like. I feel lucky that my body weight does not rise up to abnormal levels. The keys for me to keep myself healthy are eat moderately and walking as my exercise. I always walk from A to B, then B to C buildings in my university. Walking around the shopping mall is good choice also since girls love shopping. *Shopping is the main point*. LOLs. It's hard to maintain healthy lifestyle when you're having busy and hectic life.

Back to the topic, what are the 4 Rs to kick out the emotional eating:

First, Remove:

Identify what types of food you instinctively reach out for when you are bored, tired, stresses or depressed. These are called "trigger foods". Be it crackers, cookies, ice cream or potato chips, it's vital that you remove these unhealthy items from your kitchen completely. That means, no hiding them behind the canned goods in the back of your cupboard either. 

                                   

Say Bye bye to them. =(

Second, Replace:

It's time to bring on the healthy alternatives instead. If you are craving savoury treats, try popcorn sprinkled with a bit of sea salt. Love ice cream? Tuck into yogurt topped with a drizzle of honey and cold fresh berries. Have a sweet tooth? Savour dark chocolate that's full of antioxidant and essential minerals.

Yogurt is yummy.

Third, Rehydrate:

Feel the junk food beckoning? Reach for a glass of water first. Sometimes the feeling of hunger can be confused with thirst. Once you've downed a glass, wait for 15 minutes to see if the craving subside; usually it completely disappears!

Water is the main source in our body. Drink more water to maintain our skin and body healthy.

Step 4, Rejuvenate:

Get distracted! Soak in a bubble bath, bust your behind doing your favourite exercise routine,play some relaxing tunes or simply read a book. All these will help you take your mind off food!

Good health, good life

Valentine's Day 2012

This year I had a simple and happy valentine celebration with my love. *the next day, he was going to Krabi*. As you know, we are in long distance relationship. We don't get to see each other like other couples. I cherish every moments I spent with him. 

The day before we celebrated Valentine's day, I make him something special since I don't have any ideas for to gift him. * This year couldn't afford to get him something special, I promised I will get you when I begin my working life*.

So, I make him Chocolate Marshmallow.

Went to Jusco to bought the ingredients: Marshmallow, colour rice (for decorations) and chocolate bars.

Cut the chocolate bar into small pieces to make it easier to melt. 

Melt it slowly with additional water. It will becomes watery. *Try to melt it on boiling water instead of melt it directly on the stove.

Dip half the marshmallow on the melted chocolate. *Can opt for dipping the whole marshmallow.

Decorate the marshmallow with some colour rice. *Can add in other decorations as well. 

Finally, this is my master piece for my love.

On the day of celebration, he brought me to Funky villa at e@curve for Thai's cuisine. 

My love. See his smiling happy face. =)

It's me, lady in red.

Love is in the air =)

Dishes that we ordered that day. Tasted 5/10. I preferred the pineapple rice, though I don't like to eat pineapple fruits.

Ferrero rocher chocolates in love shape. His master piece for me. I feel very funny whenever I see this. He was so eagerly to show me this once his reach. Acted innocent asking me to see anything happened at the back of his car. LOL. 

Thanks for being my valentine's date. I hope there will be more and more valentine celebrations in future with you. Happy valentine's day. I love you.

Complicated relationship

What should I do? What should I do? I don't know what should I do next. I lost of idea. 

Sometime, I feel like looking for someone to talk to. But I don't find anyone suitable to talk to. If I found one, he/she no time for me. Sigh~

Right now my feelings are the mixture of: sad, stress, lost, heart break, curious.

I'm no more the cheerful and happy go lucky girl. 

Sometime, I wish I can really talk and share everything with him. I don't know the actual problem is from whom? He? Mine? I just need his ears for me sometimes. He don't had to really said those good or nice words to me. I just want him to listen to me. Know my problems. But I feel annoyed with his so called "consoling words". I don't know. Maybe I start couldn't take his flirting consoling words anymore. Once after I told him again how I felt with those words, he got mad with me. This really make my heart break. I thought you can accept every good and bad of me?   

Running away with tears dropping. Heart break~~~~~
