it takes two to tango,

It takes two to tango, it definitely takes two to do a marriage. How is that a hard concept to figure out? When two decides on a marriage, they need to prepare head on with all the challenges or misery that might come in the way. Initiating the thought of getting married is super easy, deciding is easier than we thought, but executing it, oh boy. Prepare yourself well. Deciding is easy because that person might have been there at the right time, and seems like the right person at the moment. And then when it's official and everyone is talking about it you finally start realizing, shit. It's on. That is when you start getting thoughts like; Will I really spend forever with this person? Can I really stand this person throughout his annoying traits? Would I really be happy?  It's like a broken cassette that keeps playing over and over again in your head that one day, you just have to go to the cassette and be firm enough to take it out from the player, or ...

Fashion or a cult?

Fashion is a way to express yourself. That is how I describe fashion. Few years back when I was in Japan I was really into it and i was brave enough to wear all sorts of styles and all sorts of colors. Back then, my friends will be worried i I wear normal shirt and jeans. You can basically figure out how I feel when I wear them, be it when im sad over a breakup or when im in bring it on mode. But here in Malaysia, its hard to find myself doing the same. Why? Because instead of expressing yourself you will be labelled and I refused to be labelled the same as the trying-too-hard hijabistas outthere. It was really not this bad years ago, but thanks to a local brand, the cult escaleted quickly. Its not abaout how unique/how expressive you are anymore, it's about the price on the tag and the brand. No matter how much you want to express yourself, the brands will win. and thats a cult.

First impressions

Do you judge people based on first impressions? I think i tend to do that a lot. Like really a lot. I have this tendency to read one's character just from the way they dress, the way they smile, the way they look at you when saying hello, basically the whoe body language thingy. I can't really analyse and put in proper words like he does, but my first impressioms are correct most of the time. Especially detecting people who have or will have attitude problems. But getting past the first impression should be am easy task. My only tips are smile. A very honest smile. Fake smiles can be detected miles away so be careful not to give one. As for honest smiles, how do you have one? Well what I will do most of the time is finding that one person good point and focus on that. You will automatically find yourself smiling away to them. The other thing is find at least 1 thing to compliment. Clothes and makeups are the easiest. If its really impossible, just remember the good things li...

Hello old friend,

Hello. Gosh. This is awkward. Its like meeting back a super old friend that you couldn't live without. The first hello will always be awkward and nerve wrecking. It's been a while since I last blog for myself. Blogging used to be a part of me where it was like an open diary where I can be really honest with what I think without giving shit on what people think. Reading back my old blog made me realized just that. Other than "I can't believe I'm that cringey" realization, I was kinda jealous with my old me because I probably don't have the courage to write what i wrote 6 years ago, now. Although it was basically the same repetitive topic of finding a boyfriend (hopefully that topic won't appear here) and I feel like i wanted to scream to the old me "chill aida. Chill."; but the way i expressed my feelings to strangers was amazing. How could I share my deepest and randomest thought will probably be one of the things I cannot understand now. ...
