M-m-m-m-Mad Mad MAD.


I fell in love with this song when I heard it on 987fm. This is the first single titled "Madness" from the latest album: "The 2nd Law"
In my opinion, this is the first song which gives me a feeling that's kind of special. I find Matthew Bellamy's voice kinda sexy in this song.
I can somehow feel that they're trying to stress the word "Madness" in this song. First, the part where it begins with m-m-m-m-m-Mad Mad Mad. Then, at 2:02-2:04 when another person comes in and sing it. Follow by the part which I like the most, at 2:24-2:27 when all the backup singers sang it together with him. It was just simply awesome~ (:
But I don't understand why people dislike the song so much...hmmm.
Anws, thats all for now! (:

Don't make the same mistake again.

Deep down in my heart, I asked myself this question: "Am I holding on to something I should let go of?"
I said something to my friend which made me think again.
I was rather shocked I said that.
"If I never make the first move, you wouldn't have known that I existed. Maybe you would have noticed me, but nothing would have happened."
Sigh. Not gonna think too much about it.
Anyway, here's a song to share with you! (:
Enjoy~

I've got a life!

I'm entering into the 4th week of my orientation.
Tomorrow is my BCLS test date and I'm here blogging. My mind is filled with a lot of stuff and I'm seriously not in the mood to study!
Anyway, just wanna share how I feel...
As I started work as a RN, I begin to ask myself the questions over and over again. Where did my passion go? Why did I take up the bond? I convinced my parents that since I will work as a nurse after I've graduated, why not take up the bond? But as I think about the huge responsibilities, the need to constantly know what's going on, and so on...I kind of regretted my decision. I have to serve this 3 years bond. I can't walk out and say: "Hey! I'M OUTTA HERE!!!"
All I can do right now is to trust God and just go on with life with Him by my side.
Anyway, working as a nurse in the General Wards with 3 rotating shifts, it can be very tiring for a newbie like me. I'm still in the process of getting used to it. Everyday go home sleep, wake up, eat...and sleep again. Where  to find the extra time to study?
So I realise that even though this job is taking up a lot of my time, I shouldn't let it take away my life.
So I actually came up with a few plans! Hehe. Gonna learn how to plan the things I wanna do and will not stop doing.
Like scrapbooking...and start learning violin again.
Not only that!  I've actually plan it in a way like I will go on a tour like once a month to gain more knowledge other than Nursing...(eg: going to museums.) & also pampering myself with treats. MACARONS! GODIVA! =D yea, that's about it at the moment.
Gonna try this one of these days! Maybe tmr?? (:
Tried the Original one in TW. Speechless. (;

The pictures below are also some of the things I wanna try! (:
JP Darcis Macarons @ MBS.
Canele's Macarons.

Comfort Food.


What a Saturday!

Went to see Andy Warhol's and the Titanic exhibition with Suhaila yesterday...

'Andrew Warhola (6 August 1928 – 22 February 1987), better known as Andy Warhol, was 
an American painter, printmaker, and filmmaker. He was a leading figure in the visual art 
movement known as Pop Art and was renowned for using mass production of popular 
culture such as advertising, comic books, and brand products, as the basis of his art.' (from MBS)
He was a guy who is fascinated with simple things. Enjoyed the exhibition! (:

Andy Warhol: 15 Minutes Eternal
Next up is the Titanic exhibition!
Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition
This exhibition is really worth the money. Pretty long walk inside the museum itself.
Anyway, through this exhibition, I got a better understanding of the Titanic, and I could find myself walking through the Titanic...the different parts of it. And have seen a lot of the artifacts that were found in/outside of the Titanic itself. It was really cool. But kind of sad that people have lost their lives because of some people's decisions. Sigh.

Anyway, so after the exhibition, we went home...and on the way home, I saw TWG! And was drawn in to TWG by their macarons. Hehe. So bought a box of 6 to bring home to try! (:
TWG's macarons are basically different physically from Bakerzin, Jewels Artisan Chocolate and Canele's one. TWG's macarons are much bigger.
As I bite into the macarons, it's very different from the ones I ate all the places above.
Let's talk about the shell first. I was a bit disappointed with the Earl Grey and Chocolate one because I didn't get the chewy feeling as I eat it. But the Napoleon Tea & Caramel one was alright. It was quite chewy. But the shells of the macarons are matte not shiny. And the shells are not crunchy.
But I love their fillings. It was the first time I've eaten macarons with fillings that are gel like. Or thick. Not those cupcake kind of filling, those melt in the mouth filling.
And the thing I love the most about their macarons are their not so sweet! And it's super cool how every one of their macarons are tea infused macarons. Really cool.
If you were to ask me if I would buy their macarons again, it would be a 70% chance I would purchase TWG's macarons again.
Now, let the pictures do the talking!
