Bored? Depressed? Do something! :)

I know, I know...

Sometimes in life, it's not always fun and games. There will be a time when you're too busy with working, studying, etc.. You feel very frustrated about it, you wanna take the time off and blow off some steam but your pals and family members can't accompany you cause their busy doing their business, and you got nothing else better to do around the house, got no one to do anything or talk with, stuck at home, can't help but feeling moody about everything? I think I got some tips! *smiles*

Take bubble bath.

Do it like I do! Taking your time to relax in the bath is a great way to reduce stress and make you feel good/fabulous about yourself. A warm bath can help relax tensed nerves. It can also improve your health, not just beauty health! And a little tip, add salt to the water. Adding bath salts can enhance the experience greatly. Did you know that salt water offers many other benefits including certain healing properties? Yes indeed.

Teach your pet a new trick. (If you have one!)

If you have a cat, dog, bird or whatever that you may call it as your pet, teach them some tricks! There's plenty of tricks that you can teach them. Teach them how to fetch, bow, focus, stay, stand, roll over, lay down or if you're creative enough, teach them how to talk. You'll be surprise with the results! Never know what little animals are capable of!

Make a CD or a play-list of your favorite songs.

You can either download or rip your favorite songs from your CD's and burn them onto a single disk, you can continuously listen to your favorite tracks. And there you have it, your own disk of your favorite tracks! You can easily save it to play for long road trips or parties, gatherings etc.. Productive right?

Read a joke book.

Now this includes anything that you can read from comics, magazines, or even online manga. Just sit back, relax and enjoy reading them. A good laugh moment is always a great time killer!

Plan a fun outing, for another day!

Let's face it, if you can't go out today, you can always plan for another day! There's always next time. You can plan which place to go, what fun activities to do, friends that you would like to invite, and so much more.

PS; I hope some of these tips will help you be more productive on boring days. Plus, all the pictures of me doesn't tag along with the info, *laughs*, psstt! Posting pictures of yourself on blog can be very therapeutic okay? :)

I hate hot weather!

Hey there mate! :-)

I keep it covered up on hot sunny days.

So today, my brother and I went down town and head on to the streamyx office. We wanted to deal with the internet line in our home. We practically share 1 line, for 3 computers. In that case, connection with the net isn't that smooth enough. That's why we want to boost the line up a little bit. Plus, my brother has been downloading a lot of things from the internet. So that's why it's slower. My sister and I always tend to argue with him cause it seems unfair. Right? *eye rolls* Anyway, I was the driver for today! And I ain't loving the hot sunny weather. The afternoon is burning! Got mad sunburn on my right arm! *screams* From now on, I'm avoiding to take on the wheels on hot blazing sunny days. So anyway, the city traffic was horrific. And there's no parking spaces for us! I had to drop off my brother while he goes in the office and I keep the car spinning around the streets until he's done. Damn! And some people nowadays are very rude! They left their car parked in a very hard position for other cars to go through. You know, when you're driving in a very narrow space. Nightmare! Well, at least my brother got his business done. All for the sake of fast internet connection! *wink*

I miss my baby niece!

Oh my gosh, it feels like ages! Say hello to little Iris! She's actually my cousin's baby daughter. So I think that makes me her uncle! *giggles* She's very cute right? Don't mind me in the picture, cause I look effing ugly without make up on. Anyway, I hope to see her soon! She's always been so cute when she tries to pull my hand and head to the door, means, she wants to go out. And she likes to dance a lot too! I still have her video on my cell, where I recorded her dancing in the living room. Oh I miss her so much! Can't wait to see her again. Not sure if she remembers me, cause it's been a while since I've flown away from KL. Let's hope she does!

Hugs & kisses.

Old pictures, sweet memories.

Good times, good times.


These pretty pictures were taken back in the days of last Chinese New Year. All the family members gathered at our hometown village to celebrate the new year together. It has always been very splendid. Nothing better than spending great time together with the loved ones. Back at the time, it was really hot in the afternoon. Blazing hot! Everybody needed to cool off. So we decided to head off to the beach to get some air! It took us about 15 minutes to get there and we had to pass through some village. Lot's of trees. And guess what?! Along the way, we get to see deers running around! It reminded me of the Walt Disney animated film, "Bambi". Cute. Not quite sure what's the place called, it's like our own private beach. There's not too many people around there. Very strategic. Surprisingly, the beach was pretty clean. Unlike some beaches around the town that we're aware of, *coughs*. So, I'm glad that we all had the chance to go there. The view was amazing. Plus, it's a great place to take pictures. Perfect lighting I must say. And extremely windy too. Thumbs up for my brother, who was the photographer that day! Enjoy the pictures :-)

A little something about me.


Hello dear 'fabulous' readers;

This is actually the second time I'm setting up a new blog on blog-spot. Deleted the old one cause I think it's time for a new start. A new kind of drama. Anyway, as you all know or (you can read it on 'about me' section) I am known as Nabil Alwan. Friends call me Nabil, Bill, N, some even call me 'Charlotte', it's a fake name but I like the sound of it. I got it from a friend of mine, cause she thinks I'm sweet. Well..I am really sweet (only if you're good to me though!). But my relatives call me by the name, Wan. I don't really care what people tend to call me, cause I am planning to change my name soon. When I'm finally official to pay the rent myself. I just don't think my current name sounds..interesting. Plus, I think I'm not the only one with the name Nabil. There's tons of them. And I'm not happy about that! Making me feel so stereotype! *Argh*

I'm addicted to everything that has anything to do with 'glamour'. And I am a constant dreamer! Hyper imagination. I love being dramatic sometimes cause I hate the fact that people always tend to get way too serious about life. *We have problems of our own, so try to keep it to yourself* I am very musical (I sing a lot) and I have a strong personality (thick skin!). I love getting dolled up for parties, events and gathering. You know, just being very *glee* about everything. Will be 19 on this 4th Of June. Plus, I'm gonna start college soon on the 14th of May. Sabah Institute of Arts, taking up music diploma majoring in vocal. Yes, I can sing. Anyway, through this blog, I'm gonna be giving away tips, guides, and maybe a little bit of advice on life, relationships etc.. But of course, I will keep you peeps update with the little things that I do. So hold on tight, cause I'm gonna try to make it awesome! *Cheers*

Much love.
