So, what you want? Or are you thinking of what you DON'T want?

This two questions are seems to be similar but it makes a huge difference! Indeed!

I am pretty sure a lot of us are in the situation like the little girl in the picture above! 

Even I myself, I admit and I dare to admit I am at times do not know what I want out of sudden! It can be so sudden that I will ask myself "Hey, what and why am I doing all these? Aren't these all craps??"

Frankly, there is too many things that happen in our lives, we never expect and we never even want to meet with all these. However, the more you do not want it, the more they will appear in front of you.

True enough to say, the law of attraction of keep on telling ourselves what we do not want, indirectly we will absorb all the things that we do not want! This proofs why the "what I want and what I don't want" can bring such a huge difference.

So, ask yourselves, what do you want in life? 

Money?

Status?

Security?

Love?

Happiness?

And a lot more...

It is very alright to somehow experiencing certain emotion at certain point of life. One thing you must make sure that you MUST do is to clear and calm your mind. Self-talk! The person we are talking to the most is ourselves! 

The first thing to be done early in the morning when you open your eyes - ask yourself, what do you want for this brand new day?

And the last thing to be completed to end a long day before you head to sleep - ask yourself, have you achieve what you want? Achieved? - Very awesome! Not yet achieved? - It's fine. You will work more towards betterment!

Life is too short to be wasted. There is too many times that we will say "I should have....". So what if you regret, there is no time machine that can bring back time to you for you to accomplish your "should have"! 

Since we are born to have a good brain, a healthy body; so just set your goals, get things done. Be the controller of your life. 

And ask yourself this :

"What I want in my life?"

Good Relationship

Saw someone post about this in Facebook some times back and a friend shared with me again recently. 

Come to think of it, this statement is so true. "Good relationships don't just happen. They take time, patience, and two people who truly want to be together."

A friend told me, there is always a reason from every single person that comes into your life. Those who are good, they give you happiness; those who used to be good to you and left you later, treat that as an experience; those who are not suppose to exist in your life, take it as a lesson to move on. 

It is not easy to come across someone that you like him and he likes you at the same time. Most of the time, it is always just a one way relationship, this does not work at all. Worst still, the timing is not right.

I came across an article in reader digest,  True Love : The couple took 30 years for them to finally get together. How loving it is? It is clearly a good example for a good relationship to happen! 

A lot of us, why are we not getting into a good relationships? Is it because of we do not love our other half? No! There is so many reasons: not enough time, not being understanding enough, no patience, not willing to accept the one for who he/she is, and a lot more. 

Yet, if you really love that person, you will feel so flattered even just by looking at her/him. You do not need to have a superb expensive dinner, you just feel so grateful that you can cook him a simple meal. You do not need him to buy you lots of expensive stuffs, you just feel so please that he is willing to do some housework for you which he has never done that.

However, how many of us get to come across the right one at the right time? 

So, appreciate the one that you have found. Start to create a good relationship if both of you truly want to be together.  

Good Meal

Dinner for the night - toast wholemeal muffin with cheese and pumpkin seed :)

A simple meal can be satisfying to end a long day.

Treating ourselves with a good meal, is a way to love ourselves more. If you do not love yourself, how are you going to make sure you can face the future obstacles in a stronger mentality?   

Even if others tend to do something that can bring us down, do not worry! Just stand up and move on! You will find that you are so amazing and great!

We eat to live! I love food!!

This blog post is all about food food food!

We eat to live from day one when we were born. To be more accurate, we started to absorb food when we were in our mummies' womb!

Big Breakfast at La Bodega, Bangsar on Labour Day with a secondary school friend. Apparently, we were planning to go to Antipodean but the queue was just too long and we were starving! So, here came La Bodega with its big breakfast set. It was a nice meal with a good environment (Imagine we were sitting under the bright sky without rooftop- the feeling was just awesome!)

Thai style chicken salad at Kung Fu Paradise, Paradigm Mall when I was hanging out with two girl friends for Ironman 3. Got no idea what to have for lunch, so, salad is the best! It was kinda spicy with all the chilli padi! I was crying while finishing up the whole plate of salad!! 

Caesar Salad at MM Cafe with my roomy before she went outstation leaving me staying alone in the room for don't know how many days. (**I miss her**) Again, I was kinda full on that day itself, not knowing what kind of light food that I can eat. So, salad is still the best choice! (Apparently, I am very into eating salad for the past months just because of go healthy concept?! Ahha.... Kinda in love with salad nowadays.... XDXDXD) The salad tasted quite good, most importantly, we had a good dinner session with our intimate girls talk! 

Beef Lasagna at Ben's Pavi KL on a lazy Saturday evening. Quite a nice one but I myself cannot finish the whole portion of it as it is just too fulfilling. 

Wild Mushroom Quiche at Ben's too. This is nice. I personally love it a lot. Firstly is because I am a mushroom lover! I love to eat mushroom, all kind of mushroom. The pie and mushroom are just a superb combination. <3 nbsp="" p="">

Caramel Chocolate Banana cake at Ben's for our dessert of the night. Didn't know what cake is nice so we just simply picked one. Luckily, it is a nice slice of cake. Although very sinful (I am intensively controlling my urge not to eat so many cakes!!), but well, I enjoy biting the cake bit by bit. With the cosy yet relax environment, I am glad that I have had a good dinner. 

I heard this phrase from a trainer this morning, "We eat to live!" Exactly, we can live without the three basic needs in life - cloth, shelter and transportation BUT we cannot live without food! No food means no life! So, having a good, decent and proper meal is a way for us to reward us from working hard, a way for us to recharge ourselves in order to move forward with full energy! 

"Eat well, Live well"

Keep trying?!

My lovely heart shape latte

I always love to drink coffee and I am starting to brew my own coffee.

The process of learning how to brew a nice cup of latte is fun and amazing. 

Life has been changing dramatically for the past one year, been through ups and downs, there are people come and go in the journey of my life; yet, I am still in strong belief that life is wonderful and awesome. 

I came across this quote "Whatever it is, things that happen in our lives; there is always a reason behind them."

True enough to say this. We might not know why we are having this situation now, but one day, we will realise that things happen for certain reasons.

Nothing starts easy, even when we were young, we have to learn hard and practice hard in order to excel in what we do. 

Same goes to our working life, our relationship and the process of fulfilling our dreams. 

Since I have started what I have chosen, I will just do my best to make it works. If one day, things do not turn up well, at least, I wont regret for what I have chosen to do.

Never know what will happen in the future, but at least I plan and work towards it. Never know who I will meet in life, but at least I appreciate who ever that bounce into me. 

I might not know what will happen next, at least, I am giving in my full attention to it. 

"Just keep trying, you will not lost anything at the end of the day"

"Switch"

If this way cannot make it, switch to another direction!

Scenario 1:

How will you feel if early in the morning, your car tyre punctured right before you want to drive to work? Angry thinking of why are you so unlucky? Frustrated as you are going to be late to work? Bet you will have all the negative emotions with you. So, at the end, you have a superb duper bad day!

What if you switch your thoughts? Thinking "Luckily, my car tyre punctured at home not in front of the traffic light!". Will you feel better by thinking like this? 

Scenario 2: 

A girl friend is waiting for the boy friend to come over. He told her he will be coming by 10 o'clock. However, time passed and he is not here yet. Here comes 11 o'clock, he is not here yet too. Girl friend waits patiently, then she starts to wonder why is he not here yet? All kind of thoughts pop up in her mind, she gets angry, frustrated and disappointed. At the end, they ended up quarrel.

What if the girl friend switches her thoughts? Thinking "Maybe he got caught up with certain things?" For sure she feels better and things can be so different after that.

There is always a choice in life, and we are making choices every day, every single second. 

In life, we have the choice to choose what we want to do, what we want to achieve and what we want to experience. Once you make the decision, be focus and do it. 

There is no right timing when you want to switch yourself, but you have to initiate it. 

"Wake up in the morning, we have the choice to choose to live a happy or a sad day; I choose to live happily, what about you?"

Affogato

Affogato at Dessert, Miri

Still, the only coffee that I love the most. 

Nothing could have cheer me up better than this.
