Hello April

hi..

I'm afraid I'm behind again with my Recaps. I got sick right after 3rd day raya and now it's the 26th day of Syawal now and I'm recovering. Sigh. I duno but maybe its the age thing; when I got sick especially throat related, it'd took forever to recover. So let's pray this week will end with me getting really better. Kalau masih coughing pun, kahaknya no longer exist and then by next week, no more cough.

Amin ya rabb.

Apparently it's Coachella week and eventhough uri Taemin is there - releasing no less than 3 new songs - I'm still not interested. ahahah I mean I still watched that guy videos as in passed thru my feed, he was apparently a home decor designer? and his camp was very ikea-isque. I'm mostly happy that he wasn't gross coz he took proper showers. The Justin Bieber clips that I saw was pretty nostalgic walaupun I wasn't a true bieliber I'm just a fan of his songs, they are all good songs. Awal2, I saw posts about people complaining about his set but soon after I saw posts appreciating his set. and when I saw the performance clips, I agreed too. It was nice. I don't think Coachella was a 'traditional' performance stage so whatever artists do there are or were mostly for vibes. Bigbang was there too. I didn't see or hear much of their set but from Threads,  apparently their sets were the most K-pop stage there was. and I nodded on that. I was never a VIP and honestly have never really listen to their songs properly but I respect that they are big groups out of Gen 2. The Sabrina thing was just another reason to not support I guess. was never a fan - almost becoming a fan from a netflix movie but nah. Just another blonde shell. It reminded me of another blonde; I was a fan of Taylor Swift up until Red album. I was even a part of the 'rerecord' era too but yeah. it's a pain to sing a long to her old songs now. I cought myself singing along to the old country songs some times and I don't mind. anyways. I miss Miley first album, Breakout. I wanna listen to that now.

did I rambled? I did. ahahahah in all honesty, I wanted to print out some pictures so that I can paste them in my journal. Sekali I on my laptop, set my keyboard and all that and made me wanna blog a little bit.

I've printed my pictures so now time for journal entry.

Is this random? it is. rasa macam kan delete saja all the rambling above tapi macam maybe you can see how my brain works nowadays 😂

Ok, bye.

Isuk2 I continue with my recaps.

Pray for my good health.

the picture I wanted to print. 

it's the candy from The Grave of the Fireflies but in Demon Slayer version.

I bought them via Shopee.

another one of those expensive candies I bought (ovvy in Japan its normal priced candy but you know how logistics and consumerism works). LOL.

Barbie Craze

2025 Recap number 10.

Below was from Miniso. Laik, cumil..bakal saja aku at that point telampau bnyk butul sudah. LOL but that earpiece aku nyasal inda bali.

ada lagi satu earpiece atu I saw di Miri as well as di Singapore, inda jua ku bali. Menyesal.

not my picture

there were also cultery set tapi tin tempat simpan saja yang Barbie printed while the spoon and fork kana engraved Barbie words.

Not my picture

I don't think I bought any Barbie related things from Miniso. I don't think. oh! I did! Masa di KL, kipas!

not my picture. I bought the one yang macam on the right.

So atu saja yang ku bali lah from this collection. Atu pun nasib ada warna favorite. 😊 

Once again, take a picture it'll last longer. Just becoz you like it and want it, it's ok kalau inda baliand just admire from afar 😂

the Polene era

and aku pun terjebak wawawa

So, Polene. Its a brand that aku baru pernah dangar at least taun 2024 when my sister bought her first Polene Cyme. I find the shape very nice. ganya the only thing I don't like was the opening; no zip, just one middled magnet closure. One mishap and all the items inside the bag will be out of the bag.

It wasn't until it became popular among influencers that I thought, 'you know, maybe I can buy one' since ada versi damit. 

So I went and preOrder arah cLondonHighStreet. Tapi by the time ku preOrder atu, harga bag atu naik sudah huhu 💸💸 I ordered in Apr and received it in Jul (coz I chose yg monthly installment).

mine on the left and my sister's on the right.

I also have this one bag from Hermes that I've always like the shape of. I don't know what its call, I just know I could not afford it yet 😄

cumil kan the shape? very corporate. LOL

maybe next time 😝.

Onew's first Season Greetings 2025

2025 recap number 7.

Onew's first season's greetings as a solo artist.

I almost didn't buy the thing but since the theme was Chess/checkers, I couldnt pass on that. 

but once again, I didn't make full use of it. So this will be my first and last season's greetings from solo artist Onew. It's a waste to buy the next one if I'm not gonna use it. Cukup2 lah membali tapi inda pakai.

SHINee under SM also released a 2026 Season Greetings. it reminded me of aespa's 2nd Mini Album.

Almost pre-ordered but I know I'll just have one too many. So I didn't.

*few minutes in* I thought Onew has 2nd Season's Greetings but when I Googled for it, it says 'Jinggu' and I feel like atu bukn it? It did say Season's greetings.

So I research balik arah his personal IG, Onew Griffin's, as well as his company's IG, nada. So, now I'm not sure if it really exist or not. or if it exists only untuk Jinggu membership thingy.

So anyways, I almost preOrdered but like I said, barely use the 2025 ones, so it will be a waste if aku bali jua 2026 atu.

I guess I'm just gonna enjoy them online. Coz as always, 'take apicture, it'll last longer'.

Final week of Puasa 2026

Morning lovely people,

scheduled post but not a recap. Life update. sorta...

its the 25th day of puasa already and I know from the moment aku terskip creating schedule posts during my Singapore trip that I will be missing a few more. and that made me almost start neglecting this blog again.

Why? coz I feel like I fail. Fail in posting the same amount of posts in February as I did back in January and now it's impossible to naikkan the number of posts for March as we are already half way thru the month. Failing again. 

But I told myself, I can't be quitting every time I break a streak (aka making scheduled post daily). It's ok to not post daily when time is limited or when I simply can't make time to compose a post. It's ok. let's treat it as taking a break from writing instead. It's ok. time puasa tah lagi. Yang tani simply don't have time kan buat barang lain; tidur aher (ani salah sendiri lol) lapas tu kan bangun sahur lagi, lapas tu kan kraja lagi. balik kraja sudah pukul berapa. sungkai. lapas to, repeat. No time man. 

Priorities change buat masa ani and I think I need to learn to not be so hard on myself. 

after this post, I might missed a few more posts but I'll to get back to it after puasa / during raya.

my Bob 💖
