Day 17 – How you hope your future will be like.

Although I have been mercilessly drowning self between the accounting bibles for almost 4 years, it seems that I have developed very little interest in the subject matter. Most of the people around me would expect or predict my future to be of something linked to the accounting side of the world. Be it auditing, or taxation or, those kind of things. But the funniest thing is, I have never ever dreamt of being anything close to those mentioned above. Being me and knowing me, business has always been my passion. As pathetic as this may sound, it so happens that I'm only using my accounting knowledge as a stepping stone for me to reach for the higher path of my dreams and hopes.

In 2 years time, I plan to graduate successfully as a professional chartered accountant then adding another one year into perhaps pursuing Masters in Business Admin (MBA) and graduate with honors. Having to have the expertise that I soon will have, I'd be working in one of the big famous top accounting firms be it in the UK or locally. First few years would be tough as I'd have no choice but to go into the accounting lines. But in years to come, I see myself as a famous someone who holds a top managerial position in top firms. I don't intend to have my own business / companies whatsoever. I only plan to take over / monopolize other people's firms / companies. Yes, that's how ambitious I am.

Career aside, I will then settle down with a nice set of family when I'm stable and then migrate to any one of my wish-list-countries. Somehow I've always wanted to do this ever since I was a kid apart from having a mother who dreams of the same dream as you.

Using future perfect tense gives me a sense of solid hopes and strong will into achieving what I dream for. But then again, we are only humans. InsyaAllah, with god's willing and sufficient effort, nothing is impossible. Here's to the future!

Day 16 – Short term goals for this month and why

• Ace my first ACCA exams, though it's not really this month's goal since the results is out next month, but er, oh well. Plan in mind, is to go for the impossible. Si, impossible. ANC again por favor?
• Challenge self into juggling 3 subjects for the coming semester and be nerdier than this nerdy me ever was.
• Save up. For er, em, aaah. For trips, maybe? Or simply to get something nice for them loved ones? Gah, do not know what's the specific reason for this particular goal, but somehow feel like having the urge to do so.
• Be more grateful, thankful and appreciate-ful. Er, I mean, appreciative. To simply make the best out of everything. I need to learn to accept what's given and only ask for more if I were to give more.
• Fulfill my basic obligations as a Muslim. The least I could do for now, is to perhaps look after my prayers routine. Being perfect is hard, but trying to perfect the imperfections is what I should at least attempt on. May god bless me with strength and iman on this one.

That's about it I suppose. Banyak sangat pun tak bagus.

Day 15 – Something you don’t leave the house without.

I reckon that blogspot and I don't go hand in hand nowadays. Why blogspot, whyyyy? Or perhaps it should have been, why Adlynn, whyyyyy?

Right, back to bizshits. Something I don't leave the house without : 

• Baby berry
• Baby wallet
• Baby I-pod
• Eye-drops for when the eyes die on me
• Hairband for when the hair dies on me
• Mentos for when in need of a minty breathe (no, my mouth doesn't die on me)
• A few not-so-magic magic tools for special occasions (read : my one and only 2 years old eyeliner and 2 and a half years old compact powder)
• Oil control film (which I think does no good in controlling, at all)

There. Intended to post a photo along just to make it lil more interesting. But em er ar, my camera died on me. Yes, I happen to have a lot of dying things around me. Eh, choi!

Day 14 – A TV show you’re currently addicted to.

The Big Bang Theory

The most wittiest, funniest, heart warming sitcom I have ever had eyes and hormones on. This shit is swag!

Day 13 – A picture of your favorite band or artist

Norah Jones.

A singer, and a songwriter.

She whom I listen to who will always soothe me out.

Day 12 – Your current relationship, if single discuss how single life is.

After what seems like years, I am finally proud to admit that I am in a stable relationship. Or so it seems. I can only hope and wish for it to be so, for I've always believe in the saying of if it's meant to be, it will be. 

When I first met you, there wasn't even a slightest hinge of how it would go on till how it is now. I've let myself on you with what I keep in mind as, 'whatever will be, will be'. Knowing myself, I'm the type who puts my dreams above all. 

Above all, I'm thankful of having a wonderful understanding and sensible boyfriend. Despite of our differences, we'd always find ways to untangle every mess we found ourselves in in the nicest calmest possible way. 19 months of love and not a single fight. Arguments and debates we've had tonnes, but it always seems to end well. Being him an individualistic who's used to having things his way and only his way, and put it side by side with yours truly who's forever defensive and doesn't lose out easily, I'm glad we're still perfectly intact. 

For whatever's to come, may it be a pleasant one and till then, let's just live with what we have shall we, love? I love you.

Day 11 – A picture of your favorite memory

Choosing one thing out of so many things is never easy. I for one, is a very greedy human being. Especially when it comes to things like love, family and friendship. Couldn't really decide on one photo. Hence decided to put three. Yes, don't make me go all 'my-blog-my-rules' on you now.

 Favorite Number 1 : 2008's St Louis Days.

 

By far, the coolest I think I have ever come close to ever doing / achieving. This was my first time ever of stepping out into a further, stranger part of the world, living and doing everything almost on my own and be away from my family for almost 3 months. If it wasn't for the great scholarship offer that mum pushed me into applying, I wouldn't have gotten the chance to see the world to this extend. The experience I had opened up my eyes to a whole different perspective towards things.

Favorite Number 2 : 2010's Bali Summer Vacation 

 

 By far, the furthest and most awesome, coolest, best vacation with friends I have ever had. An 8 days 7 nights vacation was still pretty much not sufficient to fulfill this beastly desire of mine. To-die-for beaches, picturesque places, good food, and most importantly, favorite group of people. What's not to love?

 

Favorite Number 3 : 2011's Graduation Day.

The long awaited day. The moment when you're proud of yourself for making the people around you proud of you. After years of struggles and countless rides of roller coasters, I succeeded. The words and promises marked and made did not end up to be empty after all. Nothing makes me feel better than making my loved ones happy. Family, friends, and love. Forever grateful and blessed. Despite it all, this is not the end, this is only the beginning.

Side note : By 3, I meant 3 moments, not 3 photos. *awkward silence*

Good go.

GOOD GOD. I THINK I'VE REALLY GROWN ON YOU, DEAR BLOGSPOT.

Buuuut, giving up is not an option. Let's try this again now shall we, love? *cuddles*

Day 10 – A photo of your favorite place to eat.

Since this semester I have spent most of my time in Shah Alam, my latest addiction it is that I shall share on this humble blog of mine. *insert a cute humble bow* Couldn't really find a photo with the place since it's a small stall in a small housing area, but, yes, but, it so happens that I have a photo of my favorite meal there. Ah-ha. I call it fate!

 Exhibit A : Pecel Lele Padang Jawa. 

All Time Favorite Food Items : Nasi Putih + Bergedel + Pecel Ayam + Ekstrojus Anggur = Omnomnom.

Exhibit B : SS 15's Asia Cafe's Pizza Brava

All Time Favorite Food Item : Monte Carlo slash Creamy Chicken Pasta, another Omnomnom!

By far, the best creamy pasta I have ever tasted.

 

Exhibit C : SS 15's Gold Chilli

All Time Favorite Food Item : Butter Chicken! Major Omnomnom!

And again, couldn't find more decent photos to be exhibited. This will do i suppose.

I know I'm supposed to post only one photo. But em ar, being a woman with a high sense of appreciation for food. That is simply impossible. 

Side note : Have fun feasting your eyes!

Day 9 – A photo of the item you last purchased.

A 25 bucks of red sleeveless top and a 25 bucks striped long tube dress.

God knows how many months has it been since I last made a purchase on anything besides food. Two days after my education slavery days ended, retail therapy with cousin love it is! Being someone who's not really financially privileged, I barely shop and statistics shows that 85% of my allowance was spent on food. So, there you go.

Day 8 – Your dream wedding.

I can come out really ambitious and full of visions. But marriage is something that I haven't really thought through. Hence I'm not gonna say much on this. My dream wedding would probably be way out of reach. But a girl can dream, no?

 

Garden Wedding

Beach Wedding

Day 7 – A photo of an animal you’d love to keep as a pet.

22 years of age and I've never own a pet. Not that I'm not interested in owning one. It's just that everyone at home is so busy and tied up with the existing commitments that having another one will seem so unnecessary. But only recently sister M gets the chance to keep a rabbit as a pet. Although it didn't last long, and although I've never had one of my own, least I can say I've encountered with pets?

I've always been a dog lover. If I were to choose, it will always be dogs over cats. 

Siberian Husky, how can you not love them?

Being a Muslim with boundaries, dogs are a no go. Second best option after the Huskies would be an owl.

Day 6 – A song to match your mood.

Since it's the holidays and all I can think of is beaches, here goes one of my most loved most played beach song, Little Joy - Next Time Around. It simply brings that beach vibe to me whenever I listen to it. Though if I were to really match a song with my absolute current mood, it would be something with rage and fury for having a bottled up emotional abandonment issues that I wish not to talk about. Buuuut, I pass. Gleeful song it is!

Chasing Waterfalls.

That moment of when you really want something so bad that you would do anything to really get it even if it means putting your own sakes aside. 

Sometimes I just don't get how can one be so insensitive or ignorant to others. I guess when you're so used to putting yourself above people 24 hours a day 365 days a year, the fact that there's others around you tend to slip your mind. Perhaps what you're doing works well for you. But has it ever occurred to you that it might not be the same for the people around you?

God provide humans with brains and hearts for a reason. You don't use only one of it and let the other one rot.

Day 5 – What makes you different from everyone else?

To be honest, there comes a point in life when you'd be all lost and not sure of what kind of person you really are. But then there is also times when you've never been so sure of what you are in your life that even an affirmation doesn't even do you better. 

I couldn't tell you what makes me different from everyone else for real because I honestly think the people around me would best be the person who does so. But then again, I can't leave this post hanging or unattended. Will therefore do all I could to give this a shot and judgment aside, feed your eyes.

I THINK I'm different with everyone else in the sense of : 

• I put people above me most of the time
• I am very very very soft hearted
• I hardly say no
• Apart from the soft heart, I can also come off strong and tough
• I can be mad competitive when I need to / want to
• I never let my emotions come in between what I do
• I always go for what I want even if it can be against all means

Don't buy it? Try me.

Day 4 – Your favorite photograph of your best friend.

Being greedy as human nature made one to be, I happen to have plenty favorites. So, here goes.

 Favorite Boobs.

 Favorite Playmates.

 

Favorite Pro-Accountants-To-Be.

Favorite Not-So-Childhood Childhood Gang.

Sinful Sins.

I'm aware that I have been 4-5 days behind my supposed timeline for the daily challenge thingy. But, you gotta understand, this has only been the first week of my long awaited short holiday break. Hence, a girl's gotta do what a girl gotta do to cherish and squeeze in every possible fun slash escapism slash glee slash exuberance in it.

On the brighter bright side, here comes my long due posts!

Day 3 - Your Perfect First Date

The sea, the breeze, the romantic setup, what more can I possibly ask for?

This is of course, what a perfect date would look like. Though of course, stressing on the word 'perfect', this is almost impossible. I suppose what matters is to have you being an absolute wonderful companion and us having an absolute great time for the first time together. Whoever that 'you' may be.

Day 2 — Your favorite movie

This is tough. Being a girl who has a major crush in all sorts of movies, being asked to name one is simply hard especially with so many available movie genres. Well, since this one made me cry recently, I've gotta say, My Sister's Keeper.

It's about love, sacrifice and family bond. The kind that touches your soul right away.
