My daughter was very excited when she discovered my YouTube channel. It was a channel I set up quietly to build up my skills using the camera function on my phone. I think she loved seeing her face in the videos rather than anything. She became my 25th subscriber.
She also asked me to make more videos for 2025. I will think about it. Until I get my FYP results for psychology, my mind is not really resting.
We are 2 weeks shy into 2024 but I have decided to upload my last Youtube video for the year. It is about my trip to MIRI for the wedding in early this month. I also added a snippet of my planning for 2024 in my MUJI PLANNER.
Now that my formal exams for psychology are done – I thought I should delve into ideas for my final year project. Once that is sorted, I could carry out the project and just like that, my degree is over. Then, if there is rezeki of time and money, I could apply for the Master’s programme at UKM as a part-time learner.
Here is my final video for 2023. I produced only 14 videos this year instead of over 20 in 2022. Still, I admire my persistence (lol) in keeping up with the video editing despite the time and commitment constraints I had this year. Good job Minci for the little battles you won.
Here it is guys, MIRI in video.
I love Sarawakian hospitality. They are soft-spoken and there is that tone that I love during their interactions (gosh, it sounds like me.. ha ha). I feel so at home because the sight of short-statured women is so common. I am one of them who stands at less than 150cm.
These are snippets of the mini trip to Kuching. I have blogged about most events in my previous posts.
This coffee shop hails from Muar but has already set up a branch in Melaka. It has been open for a while but I have never actually tried a heavy meal from there. Just it’s coffee and toast. Last weekend, my dad came for a visit. He just recently came back from a trip to Langkawi with a female companion. I have my suspicions of who it is but I will wait for a better time to hunt for that identity later.
We went to Kopi 434 for breakfast and ordered quite a huge spread.
We had nasi lemak, Mi Siam with Otak Otak, Buns with butter and kaya, Toast with butter, the original kopi, Elephant Bean Coffee and iced peach tea. The total came up to RM 110.00 for 5 pax. The price was acceptable.
The ambience was great but the food portion was exceptionally huge (for me). It triggers me a lot as a person taking care of patients with NCD. Ha ha ha. The meals were also very spicy. Only the chicken noodle was nice and palatable for children. I did enjoy my Elephant Bean Coffee though. It did not require additional sugar. But I had a headache afterwards. Perhaps the caffeine was too much. It’s called elephant beans not because they come from the dung but because of their special shape and size. Anyway, I am sure this kopitiam has their own target market of which I am not one of them.
They even sell their own products in the store and ADAMI products. We didn’t get any but the options were a lot. My mother (now deceased) would be excited to get her hands on them.
I am in love with this Tyeso tumbler. It keeps my drink cool – the ice remains there for at least 6 hours. On most days I would bring iced coffee to work and then during lunch break, I would fill the empty but iced-filled tumbler with plain water. In that way, I could stay hydrated until it was time to go home.
I bought mine in purple and for my husband, in black.
Here it is making it’s debut in this vlog.
