Happy Kaamatan!

Kotobian Tadau Tagazo do Kaamatan! the picture above was taken at my house at Kota Marudu.. just before leaving to my cousin's place for Kaamatan family gathering on the 25th of May. I found my brother's sunglasses inside the car and posed for the camera in my gangsta look hahaha I actually dont really celebrate kaamatan.. i would care less about kaamatan although i do have kadazandusun blood running through my veins. But this year, i did celebrate it at Goshen, Kota Marudu. Kaamatan came 5 days earlier in my case. It was kind of fun getting to wear the traditional costume since i rarely wear it and playing the gongs ( mengagung ) and all. FYI, i know how to play 5 out of 6 of the gongs hehehe. some of my relatives at Goshen were surprise to know that i know how to mengagung and i was surprised too because all these while i thought everyone there knows how to mengagung They asked me where did i learned to play five out of six, i said from all the weddings i attended in the

My Days in Review

Image
I just came back from Goshen, Kota Marudu yesterday. What a day yesterday was.. I had to rush from Kota Marudu to UMS because my supervisor wanted to see the corrections of my research..if she wasnt satisfied with our work, she can refuse to not sign our submission of dissertation form. After showing her the corrections, she asked me to do another correction, which i had to go to the cybercafe at Kingfisher and then return back to her office before 5pm. It was 4.15 that time and i manage to be at the office at 4.50pm. the 2nd time i had to meet her, i ran from the parking lot hahahah. After settling everything at UMS, me and Angel went to go see at 1Borneo.. eee punya la banyak pilak there! so scary.. so we quickly headed ourselves out after maybe spending about 10 minutes there. We then went to Wisma Merdeka for some window shopping and then had dinner there. I was feeling abit wheezy before dinner.. maybe its because i only had cereal that morning. Thats the only thing i ate the whol

Tomorrow morning i'll be heading to Goshen, Kota Marudu (my kampung!!!) and will be back on wednesday. There's going to be a family gathering (mom's side) there at 4pm so besides mom's cooking, i was asked me to bake some muffins for tomorrow..i baked around 40 and im malu oh to bring it coz it didnt turn out well huhuhuhu. i kept asking my mom whether its ok if we didnt bring the muffins haha and she kept telling me that the muffins are ok..and told me to not worry about people not eating it. What if no one wants it? and what if the muffins are the only thing on the table that's not eaten? :-( Maybe im overreacting but yalah.. manalah tauu kannn??? maluu ohhh. Last friday i was so bored, i didnt know what to do. Ive always (and still) love Christina Aguilera's Save Me From Myself song, so out of boredome i did a version of it.. World wide women you're. gonna. save. me. from. myself... So apa macam?? Comment.. Comment.. i know im not good of a singer but h

If you dont think this is funny, then there must be something wrong with you. This was one of my favourite part of the finale..Robert Downey Jr., Ben stiller, and Jack Black were perfect for the video and they were sooo hilarious!

Apple Crumble: The Verdict

Image
So today was the apple crumble testing day.. the second i woke up the first thing on my mind was the apple crumble hahaha. I got out of bed and reheat it in the oven for 10 - 15 minutes. It was a bit too sweet but it was almost all gone under 2 hours :-P i had 3 servings in a row. After the 3rd serving, i was sugar high! hehe im so happy everyone enjoyed it. It only motivates me to bake some more! See? told ya i was motivated.. i made baked banana custard today but i think the bananas that i used were too ripe and it tasted a bit funny hehe.. I think thats the only update im going to be making for today. Stayed at home the whole day, so thats why i got no cerita-cerita .. Oh, my other bestie is in town. yeayyyy.. will be having dinner with her tomorrow night :-)

Pammie HEARTS Baking

The picture above is me and my little niece, elsa.. i took this picture in my room while she was here friday night. She'll be two years old this august but she still cant talk that properly, i said to my sister that her daughter talks like a caveman.. hahaha. Babies.. Im waiting for my apple crumble to bake in the oven. I was out of my mind bored so i flipped through mom's recipe book and found Peach Crumble. But since we were out of peaches at home, i decided to use apples instead. This is how it looks like just before i pop it into the oven The result? TADAAA.. My brother said the apples looked like potatoes hahahah. Maybe it because of the way i diced it. Will tell ya'll about how it taste like tomorrow Im feeling much better now than last night after making a crucial decision on my life. Its a shame i wasted so much time on this particular person and closed down opportunities that came passing my way. I'd go "Oh well" everytime he lets me down, just hoping

Count Me OUT

Song: Even For A While Artist: Gary Valenciano Why do hearts feel the way they do Why does men wanna say I love you Till the end of time Till I lose my mind Till it’s over and left so far behind I just can’t keep it all inside So unbelievable how much I’ve tried Yet I call for you I long for you And I say the words I wish you’d want to here Though you’re never here Our hearts and though they beat as one But in time, the time for us will never come So I, I just go on And just remember those eyes That look right through my heart The smile that shows what’s in you That makes me wanna cry Coz I know I’ll never have you even for a while Now all is said and done it seems I keep remembering what I would call a dream Where you came true For a minute or two That was all the time it took To make me know you had to go I know ive said this in one of my old posts that im going to move on from this phase but i guess i never really did. So this time, im really going to make a change for once in my li

Happy Mama's Day

Image
Happy Mothers Day to all the Mamas out there.. What did you do/give your mom on mother's day? In my case, since im on a tight budget i decided to make her something myself. I found a Mother's Day certificate online where i wrote down why i appreciate her so much.. i wrote "because you have loved me unconditionally and have raised me up to be the person i am today", which is the simple truth :-) Oh, i also gave her 20 mothers days coupons, meaning i cant complain or say no if she wants to use them on me hehehhe. My sister gave her lipstick. I havent seen it yet coz she gave it to mom while i was still sleeping. I tend to wake up late every sunday hehehe. My bro called all the way from russia to wish her happy mothers day. By the look on mom's face, i know she's happy her kids didnt forget to appreciate her on mothers day..even if she didnt get anything that expensive, all of them came from the heart and i think THAT is what matters the most. I actually planned

Midnight Crave

*stomach growls* Its 11.59pm and i am craving me some shawarma! *Siiiiggghhh* I went through a series of emotions this week and its all because of my research AND this one particular guy. I even said to a friend of mine "if he (the guy)was in front of me at this moment i tampiling suda dia 10x oh" but i dont really mean it, honestly. It was just an expression out of frustration. OMG! i really lost track of time.. its almost 1am and i reaaallllyy should be resting at this time on fridays. Its saturday tomorrow, and I have to wake up early tomorrow or else i'll be catching up on sleep at church hahaha! Til the next one. Good Night! and Happy Sabbath.

Back At The Yard

After ive finished doing all my chores today, i went at the backyard to take some pictures of nature... I am such a nature girl ..And then at night i went to KDCA, penampang for the mega spiritual seminar that is going on until the 10th of this month. Me and my group was scheduled to sing that night for special song right before the speaker, Dr. Johnathan Kuntaraf takes the stage. The picture below was taken backstage, where we had our final sound check AND mirror checks before going on stage..heheh. I dont know why, but i didnt feel nervous that night..not even a tiny bit. I dont know about the others but i just didnt have any jitters that i usually get before going on stage. I guess its a good sign right? one of my resolution this year is to overcome my fears.. and stage fright IS one of my fears hehe.. My bebehs..Vinne, Sharoline, and Angela Alright folks.. i guess thats all for tonight. Will update when there's stuff thats worth to be posted hehehe. Gonna continue my research
