Five Things in January 2017

January was alright, I guess. Can't really decide if it was great or not. Some good stuff happened, but overall, it was just kind of meh. Maybe a mix of good and bad? It's hard to sum it up in just five moments. I definitely wasn't prepared for January, but I gave it a shot. And honestly, I didn't do a whole lot, so this might be a pretty boring Five Things post, haha!

Here are my Five Things in January. 

Five Things in January

I have been slacking

So, I've kinda hit a low point lately. It's not that I don't like blogging—it's actually pretty fun. But for some reason, I just haven't been feeling it these past few weeks. Maybe it's because things have changed in the blogging world, or maybe it's just me? I don't know if you can relate, but it's just not grabbing me like it used to.

I still check my blog every day and read the emails, but I hardly ever reply to them, and the same goes for the comments. I'm hoping I'll start feeling that blogging excitement again soon. You know what? Sometimes, blogging feels like such a chore, especially when you're not in the right mood. But maybe it's just me feeling this way?

Such a sweet tooth once again

I've got this class in uni where we all have to sell stuff. Doesn't matter what, as long as we make at least RM50 sales in a month. So, my friends and I chose brownies! And seriously, they're amazing. I'm not trying to show off, but they taste incredible! I could eat them for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They're just so addictive!

Normally I'm not into chocolate-heavy desserts, but these are just irresistible. I could eat them ALL day, every day! It's been ages since I've been in a sweets phase, but these brownies? They're totally winning me over.

New pair of contacts!

Just got my hands on some fresh contact lenses. I've been sporting the same ones I talked about on my blog before. If you're curious, you can check out my thoughts on them here. As for a review of these new ones, it might have to wait a bit – not this week, not next, maybe not even the one after that. Just gotta bear with me! But hey, I'm really digging these new lenses. They make my eyes look a bit bigger but still totally natural. Let's chat more about them in another post, yeah?

Hitting pan on most of my makeup. 

Seriously, why are all my makeup pans emptying out at once? It's like they planned a simultaneous rebellion! Ugh, hitting pan stresses me out sometimes. Anyone else feel me on this? It's like, anxiety central over here. And now, with my whole money-saving vibe this year, it's even worse. Like, every little dollar counts, you know? It's crazy how pricey stuff can feel! 

IG Live is so fun!

Oh, you know, I wasn't even the one who kicked off this whole thing, but I stumbled upon a bunch of people on Instagram doing these live sessions, and let me tell you, some of them were a blast! I mean, I really got into it, especially when they were sharing their skincare or makeup routines. It was like, so satisfying to watch, you know? Yeah, I'm probably a bit weird, but hey, it's fun! So, there's this steward whose Instagram live I caught, and he was showing his skincare routine from scratch. I was totally hooked! I've always wondered how he keeps his skin looking so flawless, and now I've got the inside scoop.

How's your January?

  2. I've been in that blogging slump I even didn't update for months.
    The brownies looks so good, I'm brownies enthusiast but with no almonds. haha. So I tend to bake rather than buying them coz most yang jual ada almonds. I loove chocolate!
    I sometimes enjoy instagram live too especially if my friends doing it, no matter if it just them lazing around and talking gibberish haha.

      well I guess this will floats your boat because there's no almonds! I'm allergic to it so.

      aw none of my friends started the instagram live yet. Idk why honestly. it'll be fun because I saw a lot of people casually do that too! talking gibberish while eating at the restaurant or casually recording themselves in the washroom haha

  6. I feel you with the number 1. I've got so many ideas to write but i just don't feel want to write. at all. but i do checked my blog too :)

    Instagram live is indeed fun! I did Instagram live for a few times before but then I don't really want to that anymore. Because after that, most of my friends in Instagram doing it too. I mean, what's the point to do Instagram live when everybody is on live? who's going to watch you then? xD

  9. I'm going to try to name myself brownies because I love chocolate. It's quite funny how someone who didn't fancy chocolate actually succumb to one particular dish made from lots of chocolate. This is my first time learning hitting the pan term. I was nearly sure you are going to talk something about cooking.
