If I have the time..I'll blog a tiny bit before the year ends.But if I don't get to do so..I want to wish all of you a Happy New Year and let's help/pray for the people who are affected by the horrible flood in the East Coast of Malaysia and also the recent news of missing flight AirAsia QZ8501.It's a sad year for our country.

Despite all that..I hope you lovely people will wish me luck for my upcoming wedding. Stay strong.:)

Razin and I love nasi lemak..as Malaysians,we grew up eating the delicious dish and I have yet to met a Malaysian who doesn't like nasi lemak.If I could,I would eat it for breakfast,lunch and dinner.So although we were suppose to watch our diet seeing that we're getting married soon(2 more weeks!!)..we decided to throw caution to the wind and went to the event anyway.

Parking was super easy to find when were there.The venue was big as well..but..the lines for the stalls of nasi lemak was confusing.Because Razin and I went in the afternoon,some of the stalls were already closed.We managed to buy four different kinds of nasi lemak.Some were really good and some were bad.

Our favourites were Chef Fauzy's!Some had sambal that was mediocre..some had bad squid(it was sooo stinky).Chef Fauzy's sambal was so yummy and came with fried prawns.

Nasi lemak kangkung FAM

Nasi Lemak Ujang Corner

List of Nasi Lemak that Razin and I tried:

Warung Rindu Pak Ya--tasty but expensive.Two nasi lemak with two fried chicken was...RM14!WTF.

Nasi Lemak Kangkung FAM--I love how they served the nasi lemak with kangkung..something that my late grandma did whenever she cooked nasi lemak for her family(she's from Alor Setar).But their sambal was so-so.

Nasi Lemak Ujang Corner--they had the best sambal ouf of the other nasi lemak we tried.I had their normal sambal while my fiance had their sambal sotong.Sadly,his sambal sotong "stinks".In Malay word it's called "hanyir".So he had to shove the squid aside.

Chef Fauzey Nasi Lemak Kukus--This was my favourite.They actually had fried nasi lemak and served it with fried prawns.High in calories but super tasty!

Overall it was a good event.We got a free goodie bag!But the confusing queue is something that they should fix in the next event.I would definitely advice coming early in the morning and not the afternoon as lots of the vendor sold out.Wish that they'd made more food!haha I hope that they'll continue doing this next year.I'd definitely come!

Imagine my surprise one day when I went to my favourite mall..Setia City Mall(I go there so often because it's 15 mins from my office),and I saw that they opened a kiosk there.It was right outside of Miss T.I was so happy and excited!Finally,I got to purchase them here.

I've been buying a lot of stuffs for my new life with my soon to be husband.A lot of stuffs for our bedroom :) These candles will fit perfectly in our room.

The prices of the candles are actually reasonable if you've compared them on Yankee Candle website HERE.I bought two large jar candles and in the US it retails at USD 27.99.each(around rm94).and that's without shipping charges+taxes..anything you buy online from US,be it Sephora or Walmart(I've done both),there'll be taxes imposed on them.Here,the large jar candles retails at rm99.90.

It might be a bit steep for some but the candles are hugeeee and it lasts up to 2-3 months if you burn them a few hours a day.The burning time for the large candles are 110-150 hours(6 days non stop burning..which of course,nobody does that haha).

I've burned both candles during my recent garage sale and I got so many compliments on them.So I definitely think that it's a great purchase.A friend commented how the smell of the candles are so good and not overpowering.Also,it makes the whole house smells good..just from one jar!

The salesgirl at the Setia City Mall kiosk was very helpful and she told me that she purchased one of the big jar for her house and the scent filled up the entire house.She wasn't kidding!I would definitely come back and purchase more candles soon.Perhaps the smaller ones as I still have two large jars.

Oh,I bought Pink Sands and Red Velvet.Description below are taken from Yankee Candle's website:

Pink Sands=Treat yourself to an exotic island escape with the beautiful mix of bright citrus, sweet florals and spicy vanilla in this scented candle. The perfect scent for escaping the winter blues or setting just the right mood any time of the year. The beautifully blended scents of the islands will captivate you and bring memories of favorite vacations rushing back. 

Red Velvet=A most decadent creation of creamy frosting atop moist cake and a touch of brown sugar. So very sweet! 

 The Pink Sands to me smells sooo good..it's like you're at the beach while eating watermelons.Red Velvet smells like a decadent dessert and it's a very delicious scent.I don't regret buying both of them at all! :)

They've opened an outlet at Sunway Pyramid(it's at LG1 near Toys 'R' Us)..the original outlet is at Great Eastern Mall--I haven't been there in yearsssssss so no wonder I didn't know that we have Yankee Candle here.

If you want to get me a wedding present,I would love more Yankee Candles.hahaha Yankee Candle,you hear that?hahaha Just kidding :P

I was so curious to read the book because so many people said on the internet that they're scared of marriage because of it and how if you're about to get married(like me),you shouldn't read it.

Well I throw caution to the wind and my curiosity got the better of me..I've had the book on my ipad library for a few weeks but only read a few pages of it.

Last night I finally concentrated and spent 3 hours finishing the whole book.Was it scary?Yes.Did it made me scared about getting married?Well..no.

Do I find the story to be true to real life?Well..yes and no.

Firstly,the book was brilliant.I loved how it made me think..at first,that one party was guilty and then the story did a 180.It caught me off guard..which I loved!

Basically the book is about Nick Dunne and his wife Amy.After 5 years of marrying each other..the sparks fizzled out.

At the start of the book we only listened to Nick while Amy was only mentioned from her diary entries.One day Amy disappeared from Nick's life...Just like that.Somehow he became one of the main suspects.

As investigators tries to uncover clues leading to Amy's disappearance.. we discovered the cracks in the marriage.How come Amy's diary entry was always so cheerful at the start while Nick remembers a very different Amy after they got married.

This book emphasize how..at the start of a relationship certain girls likes to pretend to be someone that they're not..just so they guy would like them and falls in love with them.Once they entered the marriage phase,the true colours comes out and the husband becomes dumbfounded..like..who did I marry?

This book is good..it was gripping,thrilling and many more.As the story goes..you won't like Nick or Amy.I honestly can't wait to see how the movie version will play out.I would love to write more about the plot of the book.But I honestly believe that you should read it.It would shock you!All I can say is that..one person in the story is such a psychopath.

I saw one of Tanya Burr's video and she said a lot of people were disappointed with the ending of the book.She wasn't though...and so was I.It just makes it a lot more twisted!Below is the trailer for the movie version of the book.
