Disconnected

Yes, that, I am.

I've officially
deactivated my Facebook
and
have no intention on
getting back on it
any time soon.

I really think Facebook
is getting super boring and
honestly,
there's just to much negativity
happening there.

So now I'm solely devoted to
twitter
;
where I've met a lot of
amazing friends.

(my username or whatever
is leah_yew if you're wondering)

I'm tweeting all the time and
I love it!

So yes, I've stopped FB-ing
and honestly, I
feel like I've stopped blogging
too.

But for some reason,
I don't miss it or anything.

Oh, and also Tumblr,
I'm on there a LOT.


(username or link or whatever
is lotsofloveleah.tumblr.com)

So yes, I've gone
off facebook and onto other
forms of internet entertainment.
LOL.

Live, laugh, love!

Changes

When a person experiences
changes in their lives,
it's either something
they can't control or
something they chose for
themselves.


For example,
if a person starts saving
money, it inevitably becomes
easier over time
and soon,
he'll see the results and
notice how much improvement
it has caused.

This leads to the person
saving money
to maintain or improve
more on his savings.

This goes for so many things.

In my case,
this worked for my skin mostly.

I don't know if you've noticed,
but I've stopped
eating any junk food
or drinking any kinds of soda
or soft drinks.


At first, it was difficult
and odd not to be eating all these
oily, sugar-y, fatty things but
now,
about a month or two after
I started,
I've noticed the differences it's
caused in my body.


1. my skin.

This is
SO TRUE
for me.
I can see the difference
in my skin and how it's suddenly
a lot clearer and softer.
Also to help with this,
I've stopped wearing so much
makeup on a daily basis.
All this leads to better skin,
trust me.
It doesn't happen overnight,
but it does work.


2. My body.
I'm not saying I'm
suddenly Beyonce or
Giselle Bundchen
but hey,
I can see a difference in my
body.

Suddenly I'm not as tired
all the time and there's
less fat here and there.
No, I have no problem
talking about this on my blog
because hell,
anyone's who's seen me in real life
knows I could stand to lose some weight.

*shrug*

No biggie.

These are just some changes
that has been happening in my life
now.

It may not seem like a lot to you,
but it is for me.

And like it or not,
this is my blog and I'mma
say what I want here.

Don't like it?
Don't read it.

Live, laugh, love!

iPad2 review


Yes,
I have one.

;)

And can I just say, I LURVE IT??
I am obsessed with my iPad now.
*smh*

I find it really fun to
play with and use for
notes or ebooks
or games
and all that.

But I have to say,
it's useless if you don't need it.
Really.

I like the two cameras
and they're pretty good
quality.
The videos come out kinda
weird though...
not sure why.
But yes,
I like the photobooth feature;
let's u camwhore with
an iPad!

I like the shape and
design of it;
I think
it's really sturdy and
very compact.
I don't think I'll drop it
any time soon.
*fingers crossed*

But for me,
I think the most impressive things
about the iPad2 that
really hit me
was the incredible picture quality
(as in the downloaded pics,
not
the ones taken with the camera),
the surprisingly loud speaker
for playing music
and the impressive battery life.
^_^

Obviously I had to get the screen protector
cover thingie too
so yeah,
I have it in blue and although
I do notice it's gets dirty easily,
it's easily cleaned so,

no harm.


And I love that the back of the
screen protector actually
cleans
the screen
whenever u close it.
Makes it so much easier to take
care of.

And I like that the back doesn't scratch
or look old quickly.

I tend to toss stuff into my
handbag so yeah....
stuff gets damaged.


Honestly, there aren't many cons
except for the fact that
although it's a nice toy and all,
it's useless for people who don't need it
or really have
a use for it.

But if you're into ebooks like I am,
then it's super useful!

I cannot wait to put some new books
into this baby!

Anyway, I like most everything about this
iPad 2
and I give props to the people at
Apple because
they
really never cease to impress me.


Live, laugh, love!

Ignorance and Racism

I'm no beauty queen,
I'm just beautiful me.

:)

So, everyone's talking about
it;
Alexandra Wallace.

If you've been living under
a rock for the past few weeks,

here's

the link to the video.

Warning!
This may piss you off.
-.-
It pissed me off and now
I'm blogging about it.
^_^

So this girl,
Alexandra Wallace isn't
racist if you ask me;

just stupid
and ignorant.


She clearly was NEVER taught
what Asian people are really like.

For all my Asian friends out there,
we know why we all have such
strong family values;
because we were raised that way.

That's our culture and people should
understand that.

We need to accept that humans fear what
they do not understand.


Like, we take off our
shoes before entering someone's
home because that's seen
as respectful here.
But speaking as someone
who has both sides in her,
people don't do that in America.

And I've seen some racist Asians too,
people who say that Westerners have
no respect for their
families and are not as polite and all.
So I've felt both kinds of racism.

And I feel like it's not just Caucasians
who are racist,
Asians,
African Americans,
Africans,
Europeans,
they can all be racist too.

Or ignorant.
And it is the saddest thing
because some people remain ignorant
their whole lives.

So please,
if you know someone who's
racist or ignorant like
this girl,
teach them.
Because eventually violence will
ensue and although it would
be satisfying at the time,
it won't solve anything.

Show people who are ignorant
the reasons why your culture does
that and hope that they get it.

If not,
you tried your best.

You don't have to be Asian
to fight for Asians.

And you don't have to be Caucasian
to teach others about their culture.

Some people are just so ignorant
it makes me wanna cry.

we are all born the same way,
we all need the same things.
If you cut me, do I not bleed?
If I cut you, do you not bleed?

I think I wanna marry you! ;)






Wow, it's been a while huh?
:/

Sorry,
I've been super busy
with
trial preparations.

Yes, I actually study.

So....what's new? :)
I don't even know.

Umm, CAL Senior Prom
is coming up!

=^_^=
Guess who's excited?!

The guys...
-.-

literally, the guys in our little
'group'
are more into it that the
girls I think.

Hahahaha.

Okay, I may be exaggerating
a bit but trust me,

they're just as into it as we are!

Other than that,
nothing much has been happening.

My sister and her family are coming
to Malaysia next week and
I couldn't be more excited!
I cannot wait to see my
adorable niece and nephew.
They really are the cutest things.

She'll also be bringing me
a REALLY
nice gift from the US.
If she can get her hands on it, that is.
So yeah, fingers crossed!

Anyway, that's about it for my lil update.
I know, I'm boring.

Facts about MOST women #1



~The compliment, insult battle~

Okay,
I'mma break it down for you.
Girls are like this,
you can tell us we're
beautiful, intelligent, stunning, gorgeous, funny, sweet,
attractive, stimulating, sexy, hot and
all that good stuff.


And yes, we'll hear it and
yes, we'll enjoy it even if
we pretend not to believe it
and act all shy.

BUT
here's the scary twist
every guy should watch out for;
the insult.

In a sea of millions of
compliments
everyday,

you say one little negative thing and trust me,
that's what we'll never let you
live down.

Most girls just work that way,
whether you like it or not.

We appreciate the sweet things
you say and it definitely makes us
feel better,
but it's those things
we don't wanna hear that
stick with us
for life.

True story.


~The obsessing game~

Also,
women tend to overthink
things.

Yes,
shocker huh??

We spend hours
analyzing, contemplating, deducting and examining

EVERY LITTLE THING
a guy does.

Really, I'm not kidding.

Just the word 'Hey'
can send us into hours of
endless obsessing.

Why do we do it?
We're not too sure honestly.
But that's women
(for the most part)
and that's just how we do it.
And that's why I think
people say that

relationships come to you when you're not looking;

because most of the time,
you're looking and obsessing
so much
that even two months
without a boyfriend,
it feels like ages.

But when you've got other things
on your mind,
it just kinda creeps up on you.

So ladies, obsess a little less.



Guys really don't mean anything when they say 'hey'
