Only started getting active on Spotify this year, so I was pretty psyched when there was an offer available; RM 2.00 for a 3-month premium membership! I pondered for a while whether or not I should get this offer, and I finally went with it. Try it here: SPOTIFY

The pros for being a premium member are definitely the endless skips and no more annoying ads!

The con for it is most probably that it's only for 3 months.

The offer expires on 31st December, so hurry up and upgrade while you can! 

Offline listening available for Premium members!

Semester break is finally here and I'm back in my hometown, Ipoh for the month! Most of my time is mostly spent at home since most of my friends are either still in college or working part time. However, I do spend some time wandering around Ipoh with my brother when he's not too busy with his friends. This time, we went to Kong Heng Square in Ipoh Old Town for lunch. Decided to have our lunch at Burps & Giggle. This was my second time there, first with my friend and now with my brother. But the last time I was there, we only sat down for tea after our food endeavors at Plan B.

Burps & Giggles is a hipster cafe located at Kong Heng Square together with other cafes like Patisserie Boutique, Plan b and Bits & Bobs. The place is decorated with Christmas ornaments, garlands and a lot of fairy lights. Was feeling extremely hungry that day, as I left without having breakfast. Decided to order something fulfilling. I went with Greeko burger and Chips as snacks. Brother went with his usual salmon dish. 

The burger was served within 15 minutes of ordering, or maybe the time passed too fast while I was admiring the interior with my brother. It was served with a knife stabbed in the middle for support. Good presentation point for this. The burger was sufficient enough for a person who hasn't eaten since he/she woke up. For my Greeko Burger, there's lamb, red pepper sauce, onions, cheese, and veggies (psst, that's all I remember). Although eating this burger can get a bit messy sometimes, but I was already expecting that. The homemade lamb patty compliments well with the red pepper sauce. The cheese slice could have been more melted (maybe pre-melt it for a few seconds before plopping it onto the patty?). besides, everything was good. As for the chips, it was as what I expected it to be, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Not to say, the chips was thick and that's how it's supposed to be. Condiments were already prepared on the tables, ketchup, mustard and Tabasco sauce. Drizzled Tabasco sauce onto the chips which were served in a tin mug. The chips was enough for two person. 

After lunch, we walked around the square and saw so many Instagram-able photos. I only took a few photos though. Maybe I was not really in the mood, with all the people walking around. Brother went and bought an ice ball at Bits & Bobs. So we just wandered around the independent shop lots selling homemade items and trinkets. I was really tempted to get the elephants sold there, too cute! After he finished his ice ball, we just walked around Concubine Lane which was just nearby. It wasn't as cramped as usual, maybe cause it was a Monday. Basically just walked around and waiting around for tourists to take photos (we were polite enough to wait around and not disturb their photo session).

#1 Family
I'm thankful for my family, not only for their love and care but also their constant support and trust in me. Without them, I wouldn't be who I am today, without them I can never achieve what I have now. Thank you for your constant support, for believing in me and for loving me unconditionally.

#2 Friends
Thank you for putting up with my mood swings and nagging. Be it college friends or high school friends, thank you. Thank you for being there for me, when I'm at my most vulnerable moment. Moments with you guys are never dull and often a constant surprise.

#3 Music
Without music, I would probably not be here today. With all the stress building up, music has helped me a lot from intense studying to emotional tension. Especially grateful for wonderful playlists in Spotify!

#4 Food
Now that I'm in college, I rarely get to enjoy home cooked meals as often. But thankfully for my food adventures with friends and family (sister), I'm able to enjoy an abundant of good food. What's there more to ask when you have good company and good food.

#5 TV Shows
I am grateful for the team behind those fantastic TV Shows, which can either bring me to tears or put a smile on my face. Some of them includes Modern Family, Castle, Bones, NCIS, We Bare Bears and so on.

#6 Korean/Hallyu Wave
Variety shows and K-Pop has helped me grow throughout this years and they have helped me through my toughest times.

There are many more but writing it here would mean having a post so long that it will become endless scrolling, This post might be a bit too late since Thanksgiving is already over and it's already December (yay Christmas!) To be honest, whenever you're feeling down, just remember that there is always something to be grateful for.
