Live.

Hello lovelies! Just a quick update before I dive back into my Chemistry books.

It's been 3 days since my final IGCSE paper for Malay. I'm officially done with BM for the rest of my life wheee! Haha, kidding, I'll probably always have Bahasa Melayu in my life, considering I'm a Malaysian. Not that I'm complaining tho. I think it's super interesting how our nation is so multilingual.

So just yesterday I disconnected my phone. I turned off the wifi and my mobile data. No more internet access. And honestly, I've been feeling so amazing. It may be feel odd and unusual at first, but once you get used to it, you realise how the online/virtual world is so delusional. Everyone is making something out of nothing. I still go on Youtube and Blogger and all on my laptop, if not I won't even be able to write this haha. But I'm been refraining from Instagram and Twitter, where all the negativity is, or at least for me.

Body image and mental health has been such a big issue over the years, due to the perfect image people are portraying and conveying to the viewers on social media. I'm sure they meant no harm, but the viewers might perceive a different message. Social media can be toxic, and sometimes you just need a break.

And I really feel like once you start surrounding yourself with positive vibes, you really start to see things from a whole new perspective. The world is so big, yet here you are restrained in your own room. There is so much more out there left for you to explore, so many more adventures to go on, yet you're being worked up over something so small.

Been sipping on a cup of apple cider whilst I was typing this and now I'm feeling sad again. Maybe alcohol wasn't the best idea.

love,
Janelle

Mothers' Day // BreadFruits

For Mother's Day this year, my family and I decided to drop by BreadFruits near Taman Desa for lunch after church since it was nearby.

Here's what we ordered:

Wild Honey & Sunny

Lemony Rosemary Salmon Pasta

Brunch Pasta w 7 min egg

Tangy Tomato Chorizo

It was my second time at BreadFruits. My first visit was to the one in Desa Sri Hartamas which was much smaller and busier when I went a few years ago.

The price was still reasonable as it costed around RM20 for a pasta but the serving was rather big and very filling. We order a meal each but we could definitely have shared 3 meals among 4. (maybe we're just small eaters haha)
