Tune Favourites

Double posting yeah! Feeling pretty motivated so straight after my very recent post of my trip to La Holla, here is another post on some of the songs that got me feeling some good vibes for the past 2 months I've been in the US until even now. You all also get an idea on my kind of music which is pretty eclectic as some of those who I violated with my playlist over the radio would know. Along with what I think of the song as well as a bit of info on it, hope you guys check em' out and see if you like them!


1. Blank Space/ Style (Taylor Swift Mashup)
by Louisa Wendorff & Devin Dawson
This is my current on repeat song that I only discovered just couple days back and this song got 4 million views on youtube. Gaining these artists some attention from the media and compliments from Tay Swift herself! Also they got to attend the Grammy's today and sing this song on E!'s pre red carpet show. Nothing but soft classic yet original tunes and perfect harmony that gets listeners hooked and in love. Obsessed.


2. Love Me Like You Do
by Ellie Goulding
One of the soundtrack of the upcoming Valentine's Day movie "Fifty Shades of Grey", this song is pretty catchy if you don't mind the movie its part of. Whilst I am sick of the trailer and ads of the movie that kept playing whenever I watched local TV back in Seattle and when I am waiting for a video to load on YouTube over there, the soundtracks of any movies these day are usually worth listening into. Especially since I not only love movies but even their soundtracks. Plus, I love Ellie and she nearly could do no wrong. With that unique melodious voice, she perfectly encompasses the complicated and crazy love between Chris and Ana whilst making it a fact that its also something everyone else experiences.



3. Riptide
by Vance Joy
Sure, this isn't the newest song anymore but it was perfect as we drove down long roads. Imagine it with Cali and it's beach atmosphere. I could be doing the waves with my arms and prancing about. It has a ukele involved which lets face it, who doesn't love the sound of that? The lyrics are obviously influence by a various amount of things and honestly you're not too clear what is it about except the fact its about a girl whom the persona don't want leaving him, Despite that, listening to the lyrics just doesn't feel/sound all that crazy. Vance himself once admitted to writing the lyrics as simply writing the flow of his consciousness.


4. Put Your Records On
by Corinne Bailey Rae
It is an old song but I came to this song on a pleasant drive out in Seattle. Douglas always listened to Radio Station with a variety of genre so their is no time discriminations and this song was on. We drove through a park to go catch the sunset, tall sky reaching trees a blur in the window I stared out. I was slightly tired from the day's activities and my mind was ready to doze till I noticed this song. It's just one of those feel good songs for women that instantly brightens my mood and energy.


5. Ghost
by Ella Henderson (Oliver Nelson remix)
Not sure how I found this but all I remembered is that when I did listen to it for the first time, I could not get it enough of it. The original never really quite catch me but this remix had me look into a few more remixes as well. My kind of song when its night and my brain needs a musical party to attend to. Its one of the raddest songs I assure you as well as the next few remixes listed after this.


6. Now You See Me
by Skogsra (Original remix)
Its so retro, kinda Maroon 5, and maybe even R&B. Doesn't that sound like a must hear?  


7. Superstition
by Stevie Wonder (C2C remix)
I love Stevie Wonder, Honestly he's just a gift and he's voice gets me everytime, His live performance of his song "Superstition" gave me the chills. And this remix? Just up this song's cool game when you thought there just no way it could. 


8. You And Me
by Oxford
The chicest song with the coolest beats. Make you feel just like how it sounds. I feel I could get through the most stressful laptop work while looking so chill.


9. Uptown Funk
by Mark Ronson ft. Bruno Mars
Soooo easily into my sick beats playlist. Found this as recommended by YouTube and if you figure the similarity of tunes with the previous songs, you know I dig this. I dig this a lot.

And we'll stop here for today! Look forward to the next one guys.

2021 Update

     Hi readers if I still have any. I know its been two whole years since my last one and the reasoning the same. I am still doing my degree and technically in my final semester but with everything going on right now I am still the same girl with new different things to be anxious about. I am not sure if this means I am back on the blogging grind but I weirdly still feel a need to update on where I am, where you could find me more if not this blog and it felt like the mood to write this came and I jumped on it.     So I am right now trying to do my best with doing my final stretch of degree on a virtual online platform and my weakness for getting things done and time managing hit me so hard. Not being able to be where my family is right now in Sabah has caused tons of different strains no one is prepared for but I want to leave you all also things I am doing to do to try work on it. I am taking therapy (it has been hard work but its definitely relieved my emoti...

Haul+Review: Beauty Care Edition II

THE FACE SHOP GREEN TEA FACE MASK The cool thing about masks from The Face Shop is that you can find ones that are real cheap, like around RM6 cheap. Of course for one sheet you may think it isn't exactly a steal but in comparison to most brands in drugstores like Watson and Guardian, its far better. There is also something non-sticky and easily absorbed about their formulas that makes this a treat from mother nature herself. This one is meant to soothe irritation and revitalises your skin. I usually stock on this when my face is having its occasional red breakout and it does its job decently. Better if you popped this out from the fridge. My skin feels really nice to the touch and I always feel a sense of satisfaction when an ugly bump shrinks down considerably. MEDIHEAL I.P.I LIGHTMAX MASK This one offers, you guess it, brightening effect with some moisture enhancement. I specifically used it on a very particular busy day where my skin just felt exhausted and du...

Shades Of Cool

My friend, Fran (imagine the puns made with her name), and I had conducted couple of photo shoots since last year. Last Saturday was our third shoot till a long time considering we are all mostly likely gonna be busy for a while since graduating form high school. It's also by far the best I had, even considering that our only cameras were her sister's iPhone 4 and my Sony Xperia Z2. Quick note on my smartphone: I wanted to find one with the best camera and this totally fit my criteria of the perfect camera. Its manual function allows me to control ISO, focus on certain objects whilst giving a blur background similar to that of a DSLR and capture amazing details. Basically, I take all my photos with it. For this shoot, we went for a minimalist grunge as the theme. For once we went for something really simple but not understated at all. In their basic apparels, the models, Cristy (left) and Chan Yng (right), wore delicate necklaces and rings provided by me. They shine ...
