Last week, I had an unpleasant experience with a pervert stalker. Ah, I should say it was a horror-comedy incident, as it left me terrified AND amused at the same time! So, this pervert is an exhibitionist — which means he feels sexually satisfied by exposing his private part to a stranger. Luckily, last week the man was in commando so I didn’t have to bear such obscene (no consent = obscene!) Commando (sexual slang) When you’re not wearing any underwear underneath your outer clothes. If I would cut the story short, he pretended to ask for direction but then started to please himself in front of me. I ran…

Henny Kristianus: What Does God Say About Destiny?
This week, I want to share one of the inspirational videos that I found: “What Does God Say About Destiny?”. The speaker, Henny Kristianus, is an amazing, kick-ass woman and a pastor. If you’re a free thinker, you may take it as ‘the Universe’. Or if you have a different religion, you may take it as the god that you worship. The purpose of me writing this post is because I feel the message is worth sharing. As the video is in Indonesian, I will share some parts that I feel are interesting. I hope this week’s blog post could motivate, enlighten or benefit you. Destiny: The hidden power believed…

How to Spice Up Your Lockdown Weekend
Weekend? What weekend? Ok, we may not be in a strict lockdown anymore. But with working from home for almost one year, plus the interstate travel ban (in Malaysia), the weekend feels like any other day. Nothing special, except that we don’t need to work. What about you? Do you feel the same? Recently, I found my enthusiasm for the weekend back and I feel it’s a good idea to share the tricks ^ ^ Lockdown Weekend Tips #1: Take Social Media Break every Friday Actually, I found out about this trick thanks to the Lent season. 40 Days before Easter, Catholics and Christians will fast to commemorate the day…

I Joined a Cheap Beijing Tour. This is How It Feels
Inspired by the Chinese New Year that just ended, this week I’ll share my experience joining a cheap Beijing tour. If you’re a Malaysian or have been living in Malaysia and love travelling, MATTA Fair – an annual travel fair organized by the Malaysian Association of Tour and Travel Agents, is something we always look forward to. There are huge selections of local, Asia and overseas tours at the fair. If your destination is somewhere in Asia, you’ll find many cheap packages. However, I have to agree with the saying “you get what you pay”. If you’re thinking to take a cheap tour to Beijing or China, this post may…

Turning Thirty
I turned thirty last week. Finally, this petite girl is thirty! I should make sure that I keep petite and not gain a lot of weight during MCO 2.0 (Movement Control Order) hahaha… Originally, I planned to celebrate it with my family at the newly-opened Maria’s Signature at KLCC as they’re having a Buy-1-Free-1 Wagyu promotion. Alas, our prime minister announced MCO 2.0 a few days before my big day. However, I feel grateful and blessed that I and the ones I loved are healthy. Furthermore, it would be my first (and hopefully, the last) birthday during the pandemic. I have a story to tell to young people when I…

Helsinki Travel: from Rock Church to Contemporary Arts
Some of you may have planned for a year-end trip or winter holiday. Although now most of us can only dream about travelling, this week I’ll take you to a far, far away country where Santa Claus is residing – Finland. We’ll have a virtual tour of Helsinki: The Rock Church, Sibelius Monument, Kiasma Museum of Contemporary Art and Suomenlinna. I may only spend two days in Helsinki during the autumn of 2017, but whenever the end of the year is approaching, I would look back at my Northern Europe trips. Well, let’s start our virtual tour! Helsinki Travel: The Rock Church The Rock Church isn’t a regular church. It…

Trastevere, a Hidden Gem in Rome
I’m sorry that recently I only update this blog once every two weeks. I don’t have the mood to share travel stories when many people are tired of the lockdown (like me) or facing financial problems. But! I realized that I feel happy when I recall summer trips when the sun shines so bright and the air feels light. Therefore, this week I want to share with you my lovely experience in Trastevere, a hidden gem in Rome, Italy. Finding Trastevere, a Hidden Gem in Rome I reached Rome in the afternoon and had a quick lunch at the airport (something that I regret). By the time I put my…

I’m Building Proper Toilets for Children This Christmas. Will You Join Me?
When I’m writing this, I still can’t believe that I’m able to do it. I — a regular woman who’s a normal employee and come from a humble family, am building proper toilets for children in vulnerable communities, as Christmas presents! I’m excited about this project and would like you to join me. 2020 isn’t like any other year but I thank God for blessing me and my loved ones with a steady income and good health. So, in return, I’m going to give back to the community. This Christmas, it will be different. Why Toilets and How Can We Do This? There are a few reasons why I choose…
