Chess boxing

A new sport I just heard of just now while watching tv was Chess Boxing. My dad was looking at the info of other channels while I was watching tv and he told me about Chess Boxing and should watch it.

He said it's about 2 man boxing and then play chess. There is actually a chess table in the middle of the boxing ring. It's so weird and dont go together. They still wear the hand covers while playing chess. So I think they play chess right after boxing. How weird 0.0

How to manage your account

This post is more for uni or college students like me. As you know, I'm studying accounting so I can't hide from being called an accounting nerd. I actually call people that eventhough I myself am one. For my expenditure, I use Microsoft Excel because I can create my own layout that suits me. I use journal entry and post the cash balance, food spending, shopping spending and bank balance (all of them are cumulative so that the last amount of food spending or shopping for the week is the total amount spent on food or shopping) at the right side of my journal entry. I draw another table for those parallel to the journal entries.

There's another website which enables you to keep track of your expenditure (spendings). The website is www.spendingprofile.com. I know this website from Dori because she wanted to keep track of her spending using microsoft excel but she used this website instead. This website is obviously much easier to use but I prefer my own way of keeping track of my expenditure.

Obviously there is an easier way to do this like how 1 of my friend does is to take your allowance and deduct all your expenditure like simple maths in school.

Face Mask

Went to Sunway Pyramid with Adrian just now. Bought 6 face masks (sheet mask) for only RM20.65. It's RM5.90 for one and 2 for RM6.88. Bought it at Guardian. I obviously went to compare prices at Guardian and Watsons.
















I used Nabila's camera which is Canon G11 Powershot. It still cannot beat DSLR of course. This pic is blur brcause I'm not so good in using her camera.

I also tried St Ive's firming mask. It's clay mask so it's really really dry. Recently my skin is a little dry because I didn't use moisturizer for a few nights while at Bandung and sleep in air-cond room

Shopping in Bandung

Right now, Trixie is licking me non-stop and keep on calling me with her hands. So annoying. No matter how much i pat her, I can never stop because she will continue to do the same. She's such a princess because she's my family's 1st dog. So spoilt like a princess.

Ok, shopping in Bandung is nice eventhough it's only outlets. They have alot of American brands and they have some European ones like H&M and MNG. The factory is in Bandung thats why there are so many outlets there.

The best place is Rumah Mode because their clothes is not so FOS like. Their clothes are affordable. Bandung is shorts heaven. I love shorts and shorts there are damn cheap, only RM20+, not like in Malaysia, RM40+ which i think is not worth. Their jeans are not too expensive. I bought mine for only RM70. Sadly, I didn't get much tops there.

I also went to The Secret. It's not that great. Clothes in Rumah Mode is much nicer. The layout of The Secret is so confusing and messy. There's also Jalan Dagor which is a street full of factory outlets. Didn't walk much there because it seems like my family don't like it there. I ended up buying an undersized dress because my dad rushed me. If not, I would have bought another dress. The outlets in Jalan Dagor is like FOS.

We also went to Heritage, where the clothes there are very casual, alot of T-shirts. It's also like FOS but obviously it's much cheaper, unlike FOS which is so damn overpriced. You can't try on T-shirts there, which I hate. I pantang buy clothes without trying. There's also Toko Tiga, where they sell can say only jeans. There's even Levi's. Some of them cost RM100+ and some RM300+.

There's also a shopping mall called Pasar Baru like Sg Wang, the top floor sells clothes like in Sg Wang but the lower floor sells fabrics for Kebaya and clothes. I bought my Kebaya from 2 different shops. There are so many shops that sell only Fabric. Practically every shop sells material for Kebaya. So the lucky shop got business from my family.

Handbags there are expensive. All of them that I see are imitation so I obviously didn't buy any. They have ALL brands including MNG. Not an expensive brand also want to imitate. Shoes in Bandung are not pretty. Shoes in Malaysia are much nicer.

The food in Indonesia is good. It's like the Malay food in Malaysia. I can eat the food there because I always eat malay food in campus. It's actually nice. Food to eat in Indonesia are Nasi Timpel, Nasi Padang, Ayam Penyet and some of their noodles. Fried rice there taste the same.

Once my sis ate noodles, it was served with 1 jar of chilli that looks like the Chinese chicken rice chilli, she tried 1 drop, and it was damn spicy. She asked my mum and aunt to try it. They both found it damn spicy. From their reaction, it's real hot. So I tried 1 drop from my chopstick (people there use chopstick for all noodles), OMG, it was damn spicy.

The spicyness is different from our cili padi (bird's eye chilli). It taste more to Tabasco kind of hot. Maybe they use habanero or something. I really want to try habanero because I watch Man vs Food and habanero is the world's hottest chilli/pepper.

You can visit my Facebook for some pictures of Bandung. I just remembered I forgot to take photo of 1 cosmetic bag I bought. It cost RM10 and my sis and mum saw it in a shop in Puchong, it only cost RM8. haha. Here are the things I bought in Bandung:

Wishlist

My shopping list for now:

  1. Shoes (wedges and flats as in fancy sandals, not ballerina flats)
  2. La Senza Bras
  3. Nice tops
  4. Camera Remote
  5. Bikini (optional). If can I would buy Speedo because I can actually try it and it's good quality. I also really want Victoria's Secret because it looks nice on the models but will only look OK on me but the disadvantage is I can't try them.
  6. Lipgloss (optional)
  7. Working clothes (optional)


Places I want to visit, in order in which I want to visit 1st:

  1. Middle East because I met so many people from there and really want to know their culture. I also loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Arabic food. It's so nice. The Middle Eastern booths in campus is interesting.
  2. Botswana because I want to know how it's like there. Words from friends there is really not enough for me.
  3. USA because of TV. I know USA is very commercialized. My friend said it's no big deal there.
  4. Europe because my mum has been there twice and it looks so nice.
  5. Turkey because it looks so nice in TV. The Kebabs look so nice in TV. Watched it when Anthony Bourdain visited Turkey and he ate all the kebabs..... so niceeeee
