Five Things In April 2017

Hey everyone! Can you believe it's almost May already? April went by in a flash! And hey, aren't you all pumped for Ramadan coming up? I sure am! But enough chitchat, let's dive into my Five Things In April. 

Dwiputra Residence, Putrajaya

So, my aunt and uncle bought a new house, and it's seriously stunning! I'm totally fangirling over it. They finished all the renovations last year, so it's pretty much all set now. It's a three-bedroom place, and this floor has access to the condo gym and pool, which is so cool. And let me tell you, there are mirrors everywhere! My aunt and uncle are still getting stuff for the house, and I'm helping them pick out decorations and figure out where everything should go. It's a fun little project!

Like right now, we've been back and forth between their old place and the new one, like, non-stop. It's been pretty exhausting to be honest, but hey, I'm totally into it 'cause I'm so in love with the house. What do you guys think of it?

Babysitting 4 kiddos

I'm currently on my two-month break from uni and honestly, I'm clueless about how to spend all that time. But then my aunt had an awesome idea to have me babysit her kids. It's cool though, 'cause they're covering my food and a place to crash lol. I'm totally down to help out. At first, I was a bit iffy 'cause I'm not a huge fan of kids, but now I'm totally bonding with them. My aunt's got her hands full with her cake biz, so I figured I'd pitch in with the kiddos and chores. 

Going almost makeup-free!

I haven't been really doing the whole super getting ready thing or putting on tons of makeup for, like, a whole month now. I kinda just wanted to let my skin chill out and look more glowy and fresh, you know? And hey, it totally worked! I'm seriously stoked to see how much healthier my skin looks now, like it's actually happy. Oh, and guess what? I totally dumped all my old skincare stuff. Yup, tossed 'em out for good. Been trying out some new products lately, and it's like the cherry on top of the whole skincare cake, you know?

Started to workout, again.

So, I've been kinda slacking on my workouts. I mean, who hasn't been there, right? But now I'm starting to realize something important—I totally want a healthier, fitter bod, but seriously, I keep raiding the fridge, girl! Not exactly helping me reach my goals. 

I gotta do something about it, ya know? Like, maybe hit the gym? But honestly, I'm too lazy for all that. What I've been doing instead is kinda like reminiscing about the good old days when I was super into taking care of myself. I used to follow all those Joanna Soh workouts on YouTube, and they were bomb! So, I'm getting back into it now. And guess what? It's actually working! I've been sticking to it for like three whole weeks now, and I'm seriously proud of myself for not putting it off. Go, me! *gives myself a little pat on the back*

I probably shop too much

That's that. I think I went a bit overboard with spending this month because, honestly, I've been pretty bored and just wanted to treat myself with some shopping. And, well, I totally went for it. Now, looking back, I kinda wish I hadn't splurged so much. But hey, on the bright side, I can share all my new stuff in a haul post on my blog! I'm super into those, and I'm sure you all are too. With Ramadan just around the corner and Eid coming up soon, I know I'll be spending even more. Yup, gotta get my Raya outfit sorted and all that jazz. I like to stay ahead of the game, you know? Haha! I'm not one for leaving things till the last minute, so I had to get that out there real quick.

How's your April, loves?
