Is it gone?

 Hi,

I can’t seem to open/view my blog. And I fear that this might have been disable for being inactive for a month.


Lol.


Ah well..maybe its time? To let go?


Its not like I have been trying either. 😗


We’ll see the moment I posted this one. If I can view it after I published, then I will continue to post my blog but if not, then, I guess, it is time.


Find me on the flip side a.k.a. Instagram.

ðŸĪŠ


Thank u for everything blogspot. You have been a comfort to me. 


Love,

Me.

October is here

hi lovely people!

if you think that this post was made in a rush, it was.

LOL.

I was being lazy and I thought, lets do another scrapbook style theme. since aku banyak paper lawa. I'm not saying doing scrapbook style is lazy, I'm just saying I am lazy.

Here it is:




I didn't even manage to do my Data Tracker yet. LOL literally done these two last night.

I tried to video my progress but I stopped half way coz my camera batt died, and ended up just finishing the deco without filming. Maybe I'll just continue filming my Data Tracker.

Sebenarnya, I wanted to do different theme, yg macam potion2. since, for some reason, October ani kana associate with witches. 

Example:




Pretty kan?

I should have pursue them but I was lazy and still am lazy. I just want an easy way out.

TAPI

seeing as this book / journal I am using is almost finish, maybe I'll redo the theme in the new one. maybe. no pressure tho.

😎

into the final quarter of 2020, how are we feeling thus far?

I almost got confuse

 Ok this is a short one.


as of today, this video has 7.1m views in 1 week. 

I found out about this video when InformationOverload mentioned it. the host of IO was like "she was using her real voice" "she isn't dumb at all" and etc. So, I was intrigued and I went and watch the video.

To be very honest, I never really keep up with Paris Hilton other than knowing she has some bomb diggity smelling perfume! I'm not about to review the content of this video tho but I want to point out another thing; I really don't know or can't remember how she supposed to sound like before watching this video. 

butt! that was not the point of why I wanted to share this!

I wanted to tell you that, the moment I see her on that video, all I can think about was, "why she looked like Jeffree Star?"

and

GASSSSSPPPPP!

Jeffree Star was copying her! 

Like Jeffree uses Paris as her inspiration or something, "when I grow up, I wanna be like you" kinda thing.

I mean, LOOK!


similar right????

maybe I'm delusional. maybe I'm just seeing things. I don't even know. BUT seriously, its the first thought that came to my head.

or maybe its the overwhelmingly similar big house with lots of items laying around. (ok, the Jeffree video I shared here isn't about his house. I shared this one becoz his 'perwatakan' here is what my mind went to when I watched Paris's video).


please tell me you are seeing this too. the similarities.

September BuJo theme

 Yooo.. I forgot to share my BuJo September theme. 

I mean, I shared di IG plang sudah. eheh but the sharing on this blog must continue~~

I don't think I was in dillema for September's theme; I did some research, nothing was catching my eyes. and when Amanda's posted her video, I thought, yeah, let's recreate her September theme.


it's easy and soooo me! I mean, I grew up in the era when internet was just starting so this theme is a tad bit nostalgic.



put my own little twist to it, with my picture. coz September IS my birth month. and color scheme is love 💜💜💜

I started this page last month. 


Data Balance. I mean, look at the amount of time I spent on the internet! 😅

I think it's a good addition.

oh I should mention, its been a year since I started this BuJo theme thing! yay! can't believe I have been doing this for a year. as in, a year doing a cover theme for the month. I used to just write words and paste some pictures whenever necessary. 

One good thing doing this? Helps finishing my countless number of unused journals/notebooks. When starting this, I have used two journals/notebooks. 😝


So now.

what are we gonna do with October?

Klaus, the one Netflix original I don't hate

 Klaus, as the title suggested, I is the one original movie I don't hate.


I know, I know. it's not even jolly season yet but it was in the suggestion list, and I was intrigued. I don't celebrate chrismas but most animated chrismas movies often have some similar values we all cherish; love, family, be kind, and it was never about physical gifts.

actually, what caught my attention was the 'Royal Postal Academy' eh spoilerss..LOL 

but really, i think it was a different approach to the ever so many version of Santa Claus. I like it. also, the way they 'showed' the origin story without the involvement of magic, reminds me of my other fav fairytale that doesn't involve magic; Ever After. 😆

why I don't hate it:-

  • it's animated a.k.a. katun
  • good storyline from start to finish
  • katun

10/10 will watch again.

my Smell

 Annyeong

i just realized the Labels tag got better. I'm happy with that fix. 

So, my smell or a better term, my scent for the past two years are now changed.


I smelled like this;


and now, I smell like this;


yes, I think it always took me two years to finish a set of scents. no, I don't just wear one scent. I can't stand it. there was a time when I had five scents the whole two years (probably some extra months more);

SHINee Perfumes, collab with Etude.


those were some crazy years. wawawa


what about you? do you have one fav scent? or do you have twenty? 😂😂😂

Mulan

 hi gengs!

only one post in Sept so far?! I need to fix that now.

First of, Mulan, the live action remakes.

if you came across my previous post about me trying to buy Colorpop x Mulan make up, you know how oassionate I am with the 1998 version.

Mulan finally premiered in Brunei back on 3rd or 4th Sep. and I kena belanja to watch on 5th Sep. and I watched again a second time on the 6th Sep.

So, the first time I watched, I was, sooooo underwhelmed. I don't know man. I was a little heart broken? I thought it was the 'no mushu' part but the second time I watched, I was actually more 'accepting' of the no-mushu part. the part that 'ruin' the movie for me was actually the action/martial art parts. they all looked, CGI? ok, Donnie Yen was doing his IP Man martial art thing, Jet Li was magic. I don't know man. the martial art part was annoying as fuck and I am not feeling it.

In conclusion, I will stick to my 1998 version. 

oh, also, there were no musical numbers. Like, THE FCUK WITH THAT?!

SIGH. 

the new OST maybe cool but its not enough redemption.

On IG I gave this movie 8/10. but now that I am making this, I don't think its 8/10 anymore.

lemme me share you some reviews that resonates with me:


1. by Jon Solo


2. Xiran Jay Zhao


3. Accented Cinema



Have you watch the movie? what do you think about it?

how do i resume?

 Hi, September is hereeee

and we know what time it isssss...its turning a year wiser is soon!


but lets not go there today.

Today, I wanna be serious and learn how to do resume / cv.

My sister shared me a vacancy post which I'm very interested in applying.

BUTT I have not done any resume making in a very long time and I don't want to mess this up. I would like to get the job! 🙏🙏🙏

So, I Google. and almost got myself scammed.

as always, we choose the ones on the first search page. I chose the second one. At first I thought I was looking at Resumer Templates but turned out it was like a Resumer creator? 



I almost typed out my name but I got suspicious. I saw that they have Twitter account soooo thats where I went and found these:






and their replies were very not convincing. Like, DM me to resolve? No thank you. 

What bothers me is how the website / twitter acct still up.

*shudders* lucky aku alum taip apa-apa.

I just want a sample to do my resume!

sigh.

oh well..I guess we gotta go manual now.

wish me luck gaiss...

New songs (sorta)

hi guys!

life is hectic!! as in, mine is. I don't know about you. but mine is hectic. 

✅Sleep deprived. 

✅Stress eating. 

a very good combination, you should try it.

anyway, 31st Aug, ey? what ever happened to Emilia Earheart? 

ever since covid, life has been such a drag. I remembered it being such a drag and then now, time seems to fly? what is concept?

anyway, goodbye August. you've been nice. You have shared me a couple of new songs this month, which I'm gonna share with everybody right now;


1. Taemin - 2 Kids

I mean, I'm pleasantly surprised. I thought it would take me a few listen to grow into the song but I LOVE it right away. I don't remember if I ever like Taemin's song on the first listen. Well done, Taemin. 😘


2. Jessi - Nunu Nana

OK. I gotta admit. if it weren't for NCT memes, I wouldn't know the existent of this song. this song is, as Haechan once said, a bob. 😎


andddd thats the only two song I like this month. OH! MOI! GOAT! 


3. Christina Aguilera - Loyal Brave True.

I MEAN! THIS MOVIE BEEN DELAYED SINCE MARCH! AND ITS COMING OUT IN BRUNEI ON 3RD SEP! MY BIRTHDAY MONTH!


ok. we good. share your new songs so maybe I can have another new fav too. thanks.

nyeh.

Netflix Update

Hi.

yes. you can say I am making full use of my subscription. I mean, it is about BND13 a month. So, might as well.

here goes:


1. Brooklyn99

I finished Brooklyn 99 before deciding to watch the Hill House. 6 seasons and the ending kinda aburpt. I think I read somewhere about it ending but still, I wanna watch becoz of one particular scene, the 'I want It That Wat' scene.

10/10 will recommend you to watch coz they noice. LOL

I just wiki and it says season 6 memang 18 episodes saja. AND there's season 7 with 13 episodes! last aired April 2020 katanya. SOOOOO Netflix when you gonna release that on the platform?


2. The Haunting of Hill House

ok, awal-awal, i was like, scardy cat and I watched this in broad DAY light! then after second episode, I was soooo intrigued that I stopped thinking so much about the ghost and more about the effing back story. It's a good series and I finished it in a day. 

just one thing tho, too much flashback and POV (point of views). It made me feel like, if I paused, I lose track of what was going on or where the story come from and where its heading. like, damn! 

but it reminds me of the me back in high school, when I wrote stories and made lots of flashbacks and lost of POV. it made me feel better; if film/tv series writter made it happened, I guess I can too.

overall, becoz of all the flashbacks, the story become so twisted and got you so intrigued.

8/10 will recommend to watch.


3. Little Women

I put this off for so long. the thing with netflix 'download' is that, it has expiry date. and this one was going to expire on 9th August. So as soon as I finished Hill House. i wanted to watch becoz of Saoirse and Emma. I haven't really read the book. but i have a memory of how the story goes? or maybe that was Pride and Prejudice? since that story also has 4 sisters. i think. ok, besides the point.

I thought my favorite character would be Jo, since she's a writter and I want to be a writter too. I also thought, Meg would be a favorite but no. Beth was musical and shy. Amy was a painter. and I like the strong willed, decisive Amy more. I mean, I still like Jo but in the end, I like Amy.

7/10 recommending you to give this movie a go. for the morale.


and now that I finished with these, maybe I can go and watch Kingdom

the korean zombie historical drama series. It has two seasons, 6 episodes each, almost 1 hour long per episode. but I don't know. subtitles. we'll see.


there's also another series on my List; Locke & Key

10 episodes, about 40mins each. I watched the thrailers and it reminded me of Hill House a bit. maybe I'll keep this one on my list a bit longer. I can't watch similar series in two days. it'd do me no good.


OR i should watch Anne with an E

its Anne of GreenGable story. but this has Little Women vibes to it. and it has 3 seasons. I don't think I have the patient to watch this one yet.


alright, I'm giving it a rest. 


Let me know if you watch any of this too.

August BuJo Theme

 my August theme is here!!

Glad this one finished in the first few days of August, unlike my July's. I actually search for ideas a week before July ends. coz I don't want what happened in July, happened again in August.

I came across two themes on youtube that I thought would be easy for me to follow or recreate;

1. F.R.I.E.N.D.S. by Temi Danso Art

I feel like this one is noice. Umbrella and tri-color. also FRIENDS.


2. Kites by SheDoodles

this one terlalu simple. I mean, just drew kites. but the color a bit dull? I know I can change them to fit my feel.


I keep going back and forth with this two themes. I wanted to start the 'base' even before August started but I keep putting it off. I guess I was waiting for Amanda's theme. 

3. Studio Ghibli by AmandaRachLee


I mean, I'm no artist. I can try but I also don't want to stress about it. and also, if you read too much into her videos, I can't really relate. I don't grow up with Ghibli's movies. I only started watching them last year with Spirited Away and I was 31. So, no. I can't relate. it's still a beautiful theme and I wish I have the guts to pursue recreating it but no.

that was when I decided to go with the Umbrella theme by Temi. I tried to 'fully' recreate her theme but like I mentioned, I don't want to stress so I improvised. It'd still be umbrella and I enjoy her color scheme too. I just have to change it up a little. also, Brunei is in rainy season now. it's fitting.



look how vibrant! I start preparing on the night of 4th Aug and began to finish them on the 5th Aug. 

I even made a little video. which I hope I can share here. (plis internet, be good). 


I tried to video my July theme as well but I made a huge mistake with that one. so I discarded them. not gonna dwell too much on that mistake and move on.


Can you believe that its already August? you would think the pandemic slowed down the time. I guess not.

Hope everything is well with you and your family. stay healthy and safe, everyone.

Monster

hi Geng!

August is here. and my Bujo theme is done. but I will post them after this post.

on today's post, I'm gonna be sharing another SM fav! and by favorite I mean, in song title;

MONSTER

Red Velvet subunit: Irene & Seulgi made a debut with the song Monster. again, I prefer not to watch the music video when trying to like a song and what do you know? it is a bob.


then days later, I thought, oh! here's another '3 similarity MTV' style thing. SM released 3 songs titled Monster since I first became a fan of kpop.


1. by: Super Junior

album: Sorry, Sorry

year: 2009


2. by EXO

album: Ex'Act

year: 2016


3. by Irene&Seulgi, Red Velvet sub-unit.

album: Monster EP

year: 2020 (duh~ LoL)



I told you SM is kinda lazy. I mean, in trying to find a different song title.

also, finally understands what EP means:


andddd

I will make a series out this '3 similar' thing.

Another life disappointment



I am upset. very the upset.

I don't want to be including the IG seller here coz I feel like its not her doing but I still wanna. on second thoughts, I'm not gonna. Not becoz I'm classy but becoz I am lazy to screenshot. (ANDDD proceeded to screenshot anyway coz I'm lazy to type the whole thing)

So, back story:

back on Mar 17, 2020, I came across a picture on IG; Colorpop x Mulan collection. 



I'm a huge fan of Mulan and is excited for the Live action movie (which is still delayed by the way. at Cineplex it says they will be showing Mulan in Aug 2020), obviously I want to have this collection. 
I clicked on the user and those items were on Pre-Order basis and ETA was 3-4 weeks.



On Mar 18,2020 9:27am I made the preOrder. Full pymt was required. I don't have account with the seller's bank so I only bank-in the same day at 7pm.



and then, Covid Lockdown happened to the world.

I'm the type of buyer that doesn't like to chase. I don't want to bother or annoy the seller. ðŸĪ·

May 1, 2020. I finally asked the seller the update on my orders. Seller came back with a screenshot from Colorpop.



I understood the situation and thank the seller? but in reality, i was not happy with the seller. They should have contacted EVERY buyer in regards to that updates. Don't just expect me to come and ask you. but like i said, I understand and let it go.

June 17, 2020. I asked again for update. 

again, not very happy with the respond but what am I supposed to do? this thing is global.

and lastly July 19, 2020. the most devastating follow up ever. 

Once again, this seller just expect people to read their post. 

and most of all, the item is never gonna come. argh. 

Again, I understand its out of the seller's control but I would appreciate if they would just return my money in the mean time. 
Like the other previous Colorpop seller; when there was another month delay, they offered to refund first but once the item arrive, they will comeback to me first before reselling it in case I still one to purchase that item. 

This is ridiculous man. From Mar 18 till Jul 19, thats 4 months! the seller should've refunded first. 
Not that I would take the refund becoz I really want those collections. LOL 
but seeing how they didn't even think of refunding me, they seems confident that them items will definitely arrive? albeit, super delayed? 
That was what I was rooting for; my items to arrive!

tapi now, poof. Hancur harapan.

and will be refunded in 6 weeks? after I waited for 4 months?! That June respond was unnecassary. "in USPS transit" konon. false hope.

I'm never gonna do preOrder anymore after this. I have no problem preOrdering, I just want my items to arrive. and don't be calling me impatient. I asked this seller once a month for an update and not once did I request for a refund (coz goddammit i really one those collections!). If that is not patient, I don't know what is.

Sigh.





Look at them. 

So pretty.

So red.

So Mulan.

hanya dalam mimpi.

but if you can find this item anywhere, let me know. I might order this via ebay actually. might cost a fortune to ship but at least I will have it.

DM me.  

FOR ONCE I WANT A MAKEUP COLLECTION SO BAD!


. . .

Oh! here's the story from the Seller before this one.

Netflix second chance

alright. I'm getting the hang of this new features on Blogger. or Blogspot. 
I think it's a lot easier if you're composing a post on a tablet of some sort coz I still can't figure out how to 'quickly' choose a Label or Tag. 
the fun part is I can easily add a video for a post (I learned that when I was editing using my phone 👍), you literally just go to the video tap and click on 'youtube' and search the video you want to add. its freakin simple.
AND
I can easily add in emojis without having to go to another website/window to copy paste from. 👏👏👏

So far so good. That Label/Tag thing tho. I need someone to tell me the 'quicker' way to do it.

Now, onward.

Netflix. 


I almost unsubscribe last month. coz I feel like I didn't use it often enough.

but then, they have Hunger Games and I downloaded them and started watching again, like I've never watch them a hundred times before. 

10/10 will watch again.

and then I saw they have Ready Player One, Charlie's Angel 2019, Geostorm, Little Women, and the Grinch (thus far) and I was hooked.

I watched Geostorm first. 

coz I have seen this move kena play di laundrymat but I never finished watching it so I was glad when I see it on Netflix. the movie kinda reminds me of The Day After Tomorrow, and 2012. similar vibes. 5/10

Next I watch Charlie's Angel 2019. 

coz Naomi Scotts a.k.a Jasmine from Aladdin 2019. She was Elena in Charlie's. 
BUT it's Kristen Stewart's character, Sabina, that impresses me. or maybe Kristen's acting. I mean, Twilight fucked her up. I actually knew her from Catch That Kid, Panic Room, AND Zathura! She's a good actor. 
anyway, 6/10

Ready Player One. 

my friend said its a good one so I give it ago last Saturday.
gives me Total Recall and Alita vibes. 9/10 will recommend.

as I'm making this post, I'm watching Brooklyn Nine-Nine. 

each episodes has at least 22mins. my kinda series. those hypes on IG posts did not disappoint so far. Yes, I have seen snippets of this series, a lot, on IG. thought I give it a go. currently on Episode 6. 10/10 will recommend binge watching with me. They funny.

No, I have not forgotten about Little Women. 

Yes, I have downloaded that movie, but I have not watch it yet. coz, I watch Brooklyn Nine-Nine instead 👆

there's another series I'm interested in watching; Juon, the series. 



I mean, HOW MORE 'ORIGIN' CAN A STORY GET?! didn't the movie have like 3 sequels?! AND THOSE SEQUELS WERE LIKE GOING BACKWARDS TOO.
oh wait. maybe I got this wrong. maybe that 3 sequels were for The Ring? hmmm...ðŸĪ”
ANYWAY! I'm still a scardy cat and I haven't convince my brother to watch with me.
will update you when I did.

do you think these number of movies and series in a month worth my subscription? Do i need to watch more?

tapikan...

sometimes I don't have time or good internet connection to watch more.

Suggestion?

. . .
