Non-stop eating.

NON-STOP eating = more CALORIES INTAKE = LESS weight loss/ INCREASE unnecessary kilos.

yes yes yes. I am a food lover. Not to mention a sweet tooth as well - am PROUD of it XD
I want my hot dream body yet i can't let go of my eating habit! how laaaa? tell me how? *crying out loud.

hahaha...its ok. Maybe i am not 'sekeping', but i think i have what i want. It is just a matter of tonning it up a bit, control what i eat a bit..then..Walla! Hotties in the house! he he he... Alhamdulillah.

We, ladies...have to embrace and accept how we look like. Each of us have our own dream BMI or measurements or weight. But, what matter most is how we look like NOW. Don't be sad or demotivated. Be confident! Tell them that "I CAN TAKE THE WORLD BY STORM!".

So yeah...me and dad baked a loaf of bread last night. We have a bread maker but we didn't use if for ages! Takut dia merajuk sebab we always use baking stand mixer next to it! Sorry baby...di anak tirikan..kekeke

Tadaaaa! Fresh hot 'campak-campak simple bread'  from the  bread maker XD
Campak air + marjerin + tepung gandum + tepung susu + garam + gula + yeast ke dalam bread maker, kemudian ceq tengok tv. Biaq bread maker do all the work..hahaha..mcm main tipu je kan? Found another simple recipe here http://marzipanmom.blogspot.com/2011/03/white-sandwich-bread-no-monkey-business.html. Thinking of baking it..hmmm...the question is...when...haha..

Ape lagi ek yang ceq masak cuti sem ni? HA! 

SuperSize Chopped Chocolate with oats! It supposed to be chewy but  i overbaked it, hence the crispy...he he he
SuperSize Raisins with oats chewy cookies!

My dad requested the cookies and he ask me to bake the same cookies again before going back to uni.haha
http://allrecipes.co.uk/recipe/6408/chewy-oat-and-chocolate-chip-cookies.aspx - This is where i got the original recipe. I altered the recipe according to what was available in the kitchen. heeeee....

Besides that... i made home-made TWISTIES! can you believe that?! hahaha...senang je weh.

Introducing *drumroll* THE........LAKSA TWISTIES! he he he..
Blend chicken cube, curry powder, chili powder, nestum, sugar and salt together kemudian gaulkan kat laksa yang telah digoreng.
The main ingredient for the 'twisties' is LAKSA KERING! You just have to deep fry it, toss it then add in your favorite flavour! I made Curry flavour Laksa Twisties. I can't give you the exact amount of all the ingredients i used because, it depends on your taste buds! For an exampale, If you like it hot..add in extra chili powder. Senang je kan....InsyaAllah. Ada orang letak Cheese powder sikit. You can ask Mr.Google for extra info dear =P

That's all for now. 

Love, carbs lover.

Current addiction

http://www.womenshealthmag.com/

The above site is my current addiction. It has (almost) EVERYTHING inside. From what to eat, to exercise routines to what to wear!

By the virtue of a 'maxim' quoted below,
"If a guy stop playing an online game just to text you back, marry him"...

the same apply here,
"If a lady stop reading http://www.womenshealthmag.com/ just to text you back, marry her"... =P

Picture shows my lil' cousin, Raziq. He is (obviously) having a lot of fun !
When we were kids, the only daily problem we faced was 'what should be the next fun thing to do?'
Life is getting serious as we grow older, but that shouldn't be the reason for you to stop having fun like Raziq do!
Plan at least a day for you to enjoy the day with your bestfriends and family, and at least 30 minutes daily for yourself.


Love, Lilies lover.

Business lady ;)

Holiday is coming to its end!
I am experiencing a mix feeling here. Gosh! (anak manja babe) haha

Hereinafter is my usual holiday routine:
TV + house chore + eat + 'nap' + online + eat + baking + TV or TV with the laptop on + Sleep
Can you see how 'productive' i am during my holidays?...hahaha

TETAPI, cuti kali ini melihatkan satu anjakan paradigma dimana cuti den betul-betul produktif! Muahaha.. Since i am on my final year, me n the best of friends are planning on a road trip! (a mini budget road trip) and since i am not receiving any scholarship neither loan, i need more $$ to spend on the trip rather than asking from my parents sahaja. SO! I've decided to generate my income by doing food related business! Simple-simple je. Bukan terima tempahan catering dan sekufu dengannya..oh tidakks.. Tak larat den. haha..

My ummi gave the idea of selling Crispy Rolled Popia. Pack in small containers and ummi will then sell it to her office mate. Yang ni senang cause you can make it while watching TV. Modal yang diperlukan pun tak banyak. 

This is my Crispy Rolled Popia. The main ingredients are kulit popia (obviously) and sugar! The next important ingredient depends on your preference where you can opt to add in milk powder or blended nestum or horlicks or mix everything up! hahaha

The real challenge was when one of ummi's office mate ordered Nasi Lemak Seringgit. Ummi asked whether I am willing to take the offer? cause I have to deliver the Nasi Lemak before 7.30 in the morning and therefore, i have to wake up (really) early to cook the nasi..then bungkus the nasi... hahahaha... I ACCEPT it! Gila ke apa? Tapi Alhamdulillah, ummi ayah were really supportive! (till now and in whatever i do-Thank you Allah-i really do feel blessed)

Masa memasak semua orang masih bertenang. Tapi, bila nak bungkus jadi kelam-kabut sebab tak mahir..haha..
Really had a great time making the Nasi Lemak. I learnt from ummi to prepare all the ingredients in advance. Contohnya, bahan-bahan tumisan blend siap-siap. Ikan bilis dan kacang goreng siap-siap. So, when the time comes to cook the Sambal, campak semua dalam kuali then..Done! he he.. For the nasi..we (me and ummi) woke up at 3 in the morning..gigih tau..haha.. Cause we want fresh Nasi that can last long, thus, the later the better. Kalau tak, cepat basi...and we don't want that. For the Sambal, we cooked it earlier (before going to bed)

Here you go! 90 bungkus (and extra) Nasi Lemak Seringgi ready to be delivered!


Although we gave extra bungkus of Nasi Lemak and extra Sambal, we still have EXTRAS in the periuk! hahaha.. What to do? Boleh buat rumah terbuka untuk setengah taman tau (nak certia punyalah banyak lebih) hahaha... Definitely a lesson to be learned! hahaha
-To those who wonder what we did with the EXTRAS... 
No worries, we put it in the freezer for future usage.ngeh ngeh ngeh (membazir itu amalan syaitoon)

Aite, that's all for this entry! 

Love,
Girl on fire.

Senior year!

YES.
With all the ups and downs...the unfortunates...the surprises..the goods...the unexpected..finally, here comes the FOURTH YEAR.
Who says reading law is easy? Well...it depends. haha. If you are really enjoying you student life while believing that CGPA doesn't matter much as long as you have what it takes to survive in this world...then...reading laws is enjoyable (mind you that, 'enjoyable' doesn't mean 'scoreable' =P)

It is really funny when i recall the moments when we have to choose which sections for which subjects (just to avoid 'undesirable' lecturer. Lecturer ni strict lah, Lecturer ni banyak bagi kerja lah,... hakikatnya, as long as you do your part as a student (prepare before going to class and etc...) any lecturer will do!
I prefer a lenient lecturer who not only give marks based on the answer script but also on the EFFORTS that students have to go through! ;)
While i was lepaking in the library with my buddies, i overheard a conversation between juniors telling other juniors not to take (example) criminal law with (example) Dr.B cause he is scary and he makes you read hundreds of cases..and bla..and bla.. siap call kawan-kawan diorang bagai..haha! geli hati den (macam ni aku rupenye dulu-dulu)

Making notes for Company Law 1 during my third year first sem
 (Another crucial subject  after Criminal Law and Constitutional Law)
What i can say now is "Treasure every lecturer which is destined to teach you". Why? because.. Allah is the Most Knowing. He knows what's best for you and...who knows..you can get the best of the subject by learning it with Dr.B.. hehehehe

That's all for now.

the Garden

The title speaks by itself!

A wife is the architect of the interior part of a house. While the husband is the gardener which handles the exterior part of the house - this rule applies in the family.

Left: the Father
Right: the Grandfather
My dad (and his) loves gardening. Both of them are orchid lover as well!

You know he is de-stressing if he is outside (doing nothing but) staring at his flowers and other plants for more than 5 minutes. You know he is asking for daughter-dad quality time if he is asking you to help him doing his gardening work. I didn't contribute much. My mouth moves faster than my hands! hahaha. I ask him a lot of questions just to annoy him cause it didn't matter on how much effort i give, gardening is just not my cup off hot chocolate. no. no. But, he seems to enjoy it! Takpelah. By just looking at him doing something he enjoys while layan his daughter is .... soothing - MasyaAllah

Attached together are some of the fruits of his hands (with Allah's will) - SubhanaAllah

Current addiction

Tree With Deep Roots.

A Korean television series based on a novel - Deep Rooted Tree, authored by Lee Jeong Myeong.

Any plant has its roots underneath as well as flowers on the upper part. Without the roots, the whole structure will collapse. As regards to the flowers, they are replaceable.


There is an association called 'Milbon' which strongly believe that they are the roots of the country. Whereas the King is a mere flower. 

The former King has been trying to kill all the members of the association but to no avail. Believing that the country will has a better future by using different method of ruling, the son of the King refuse to follow suit his deceased father actions on killing everyone suspected to be involved in Milbon activities. Everyone means EVERYONE. Tiada belas kasihan. "All for a greater cause".

The story evolves on how Milbon slowly comes back to life and threaten the King, secret project conducted by the King for years, revenge of a son for his father, friendship, politics and love. Don't get too attached with any character and don't judge any character before you know the reasons of his actions. I like the way it makes you think on the answers of all questions and mysteries. By not judging the characters beforehand, you will allow yourself to think of different possibilities and solutions as to why certain things have been done in certain ways.

Hahaha..I know, it is heavy. Not a kind of story to de-stress but it will take you to a different world and adventure (if..the internet connection behave =P) The 13th episode among all 24 episodes is my favorite.

Attached together are 2 songs with different genre from the series. Enjoy =D


Re-branding

Whops!

Not much. Made some changes here and there.
Deleted all posts. McNiefeescent is now "Kitchen, Wardrobe & Life" XD

Not promising anything. Share it I shall if it is worth mentioning.

Love, Liyana.
