What's in my Pencilcase

Hi! My studies have unofficially come to an end. So I thought I would share what's in my pencilcase now, for the last time! Being a crazy stationery person since young, I am always changing my pens and all sorts of stationery. I can stay in Popular for a really long time because I can't decide what pens I should get! Sometimes I buy the pens back and I don't like them later, so I really want to find a pen/brand that I can stick to! And this academic year, I managed to stay on with my stationery! It makes shopping for stationery way easier because you just grab the refills and pay for it.

So this is my stationery...................... 



I think it is rather comprehensive? Or maybe too many because if you look properly there are only a few basic pens! I got most of them from Popular except for a few. Like the pencil is from Muji, black ballpoint is from Daiso, blue ballpoint is from Tesco (in JB), correction tape is from smaller size bookshops. Oh, my pencilcase is from H&M at City Square Mall (also in JB).

I like all my pens in the same design once I found a favourite pen! The black, green and orange pens are by SARASA. The reason why I didn't get one in blue is because the colors they offer are not nice! There is one color called "cobalt blue" which is nice but they don't have them in refills, and the "normal" blue is too dark for my liking. And as for the highlighters I used to have them all by Pentel but I saw the Faber Castell one at Tesco and thought it looks nice so I got it. I changed it towards the end of the semester so the highlighter has not run out of ink for me to switch back to Pentel hahaha. I remember there was one incident my green highlighter ran out of ink and I couldn't find the brand in several Popular outlets so I had to get some alternative which I didn't like at all. And also partially because this means I would have 3 different brands of highlighters which I do not like!!! Haha I think I am slightly OCD.

So yep, this is my stationery collection :)

Miam Miam

We celebrated one of my friend's birthday at Miam Miam on a weekday night. My friend picked this restaurant so I did not do any research about this place. Initially I thought it is a Vietnamese noodles shop from its name but was surprised when we reach there to know that it wasn't! It's actually a French restaurant, but with a fusion of Japanese style. I think I might have gotten the impression that it sells pho because of the restaurant Nam Nam Noodle Bar hahaha. However, I'm not the only one who had the wrong idea.

I had no idea which dish I should go for because everything on the menu looks so good! In the end, I got myself the Miam Miam spaghetti because my friend mentioned this dish is one of their most popular and highly raved dish. It's quite a huge portion as compared to their baked rice options. Sadly their yolk isn't flowly and it didn't blend in with the noodles.



I tried the chocolate souffle as well! There are other flavours like vanilla and matcha as well. It is my first time trying a souffle so I might as well pick the classic one right? I'd learnt from MasterChef that a souffle is one of the hardest dessert to make so I was excited to try this! If I remembered correctly if you don't bake it properly the top part will collapse! It has a mousse-like texture on the inside. I think it should be freshly baked as we had to wait 20 minutes for this! But it is all good!

1st

Hi guys! This is my nth time creating yet another new blog, hopefully I don't get lazy and stop updating. I just want a space to document bits of my life into words and pictures! We are now living in an era where photos are no longer hard copies (except for polaroids and unless you print the soft copies out). It makes me feel so unsafe that I have no backup of my pictures because I am always so careless and have a long history when it comes to losing my gadgets (and also other stuff like EZ link card). So here I am! Also, I want to categorise my posts into categories such as food, thoughts, etc. Any ideas what I can include??
