Happy New Year 2024!!! Happy Me, New Me πŸ˜ƒ

Assalamualaikum and Good Day to All of you,

Alhamdulillah, we had passed throughout all the rough years.

In 2023, none of my goals had achieved, my wish for 2024 is to achieve at least 5 of my previous goals πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒ

I still remember the day when I went through this, and Alhamdulillah, all my prayers were answered. 🀲

My New Resolutions:

Since my previous year had “successfully” failed to fulfill the goals, this year I listed fewer goals and hope can achieve it. insya Allah.

I started my 2024 goals by aiming max 5 points for this year πŸ˜ƒ:

1. Having A Healthy Lifestyle

It’s been very busy years back in 2022 and 2023. This year, I wanna be healthier in terms of physical and mental health. I’m trying to prioritize my own health, the most crucial and important thing is to do. I’d signed up for a gym membership and about to start on 15 January.

My wish is to be committed to going to the gym and control on food intake. Let’s hope this to be happened and keep it consistent throughout this year.

2. Pick Up My Golds from Bank

Last year, I’ve spending some money to buy gold jewelry and put it in the bank. This year, I’m gonna stop buying and just take my jewelry from the bank. Our gov had raised tax % by 2% and gonna implement taxes on gold jewelry. Thus, I bought most in last year, and this year, I will be more focused on taking back all the jewelries. I wanna thank this for my fiancΓ©, as he is the only person who supports me to buy and collect gold after my trauma from my previous relationship. πŸ₯°

3. Take BA Foundation cert

This cert has been pending quite a long period. I wanna pursue this for this year and take the exam. I always feel nervous about taking an exam. I hope I will find strength to take the exam and pass with flying colors. insya Allah ❀️

4. Cut Off more Debt

This year, I wanna cut off credit card debt. It’s been years paying for credit cards, and I hope I can zerorise the credit card.

5. Declutters Wardrobe

I already started this yesterday and am feeling kinda happy with the outcomes. I think I might need another 1 round of cleanup, and then I will be good about it. I love empty spaces, and it makes me feel relaxed πŸ˜ƒ

That’s All for Now..

Till then…to be continued…

A lil bit left….for the house…πŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ₯°

Hey hey heyy, hey everyone!! How are ya? Hope you are all good.

Just wanna share some idea on what I’d done to my 1st home. Just a lil bit touch up before its ready to view for the next tenant.

So basically, what only left is:

1. To receive another curtain as current curtain is actually shorts after the folding. LOL. So I bought another 2 blackout curtain for my living room.

2. To receive my TV, I bought a smart TV for the house.

3. To hang the kitchen curtain. I already have it, just that I forgot to bring plier and scissor for cutting and adjusting the wire.

4. To hang bathroom mirror and bathroom rack. I need to bring along the strong double sided tape, I guess I just use double sided tape for the rack. πŸ˜ƒ

5. To dismantle and install the water heater. I already bought 2units, just need plumber to install. I already book plumber to do such things πŸ˜€

So, check these out the differences before I took over and after I took over the house πŸ˜ƒπŸ₯°πŸ˜ƒ

This was before, when im viewing the house before my tenant move out.
This was after I clean the house and make lil changes.
This will be the final, only the Smart TV left to put on the TV cabinet.

Check out the kitchen…

This was before when I viewing the house when my tenant still living in.
After my tenant move out and I clean up the kitchen.
This was after I do a total cleanup and buy some carpet for kitchen.

Now, let’s see the dining area…πŸ₯°

This was before the tenant move out, when the tenant still living in the house.
This was after the clean up,, I rearranged n buy some stuff for the dining area.

Let’s check out rooms, the house has 3rooms and 2bathrooms.

The masterbedroom during the tenancy.
The master bedroom after clean up, painted furniture and bought mattress cover & curtains .
This was the middle room, where the tenant make it as store. A lot of clean up done for this room.
This was the current view. Perhaps it need some rearrange, but not sure yet. I just bought the mattress cover and curtain for this room.
This was the smallest room. Originally I made it as my wardrobe and clothes organization room. So, my tenant just continue it, kinda a lot of stuff.
So I do a clean up and bought curtain. nothing much I did for this room. Just a cleaning.

So, most of the thing I did was, a massive clean up, throwing unnecessary stuff and do a lot of painting. I did paint the furniture such as TV cabinet, coffee table, make up table, mirror frame, TV rack, the dryer outside as well πŸ˜ƒ

Some other things I snap photo before I went back home last Saturday πŸ˜ƒπŸ₯°πŸ˜ƒ

I still need 2 more curtains..lol
The shoe rack, I don’t buy expensive shoe rack. I just re-paint the original brown wooden color with black and light grey color. I just buy the spray paint, make my life easier..LOL
Tadaa ❀❀❀

Okay, I will snap the rest pending things and post in later…

see yaa!! To be continued..

5 Minimalist Habits that changed My Lifestyle πŸ₯°

Good afternoon everyone!! Its Thursday, guys!! 1 day to goo…before we meet weekend again!! Weehooo!!! πŸ₯°

Well, I just want to share with you what are my hobbies as a minimalist, to feel content and keep clutters away in a better way. ❀

So, here we go…πŸ˜‰

1. Making A DIY project.

As I being a minimalist, my characters are slowly change. I spend most of my time sitting home, and maintaining my things at home. One of my fav things to do is, to redesign, and reuse existing things I have. I have Burlap, Ribbons, Wrapping papers, Sponges etc at home, from my previous business plan. Why am I buying these stuff? Well, I thought when pandemic happened, I will loose my job. However, it turn out that I got more job offers. Alhamdulillah πŸ₯°, so I have never starts my business. So, here all are the stuff,s that I need to get rid by making a D.I.Y stuff ❀πŸ₯°β€

Before decorating my dustbin πŸ˜•
After decorating my dustbin πŸ₯°

2. Strolling the park.

Another what I like to do is strolling the park. I love nature so much, especially forest. It calms me when I have anxiety or problems. To go forest alone, is very risky. So, I choose to stroll the park whichever has little/mini forest nearby πŸ₯°

I climbed up 3rd floor of the watch tower. Its so relaxing. Next time, Im gonna bring hot tea/black coffee with me πŸ˜ƒ

3. Explore new recipe in kitchen.

I love exploring new recipes on internet. First trial, I will try the original recipes, then for 2nd and 3rd trial I will modify the recipes, and jot it down all the modification I made. πŸ₯° i love creating my very own recipes according to my own taste bud. ❀

I cut the dumpling’s skin into half, coz its too big. I cut into small bite sizes πŸ˜ƒπŸ₯°

4. Decluttering own room/space.

Well, this is like a ‘ritual routine’ for me πŸ˜…. Most of time, I will take a plastic bag and walk around the room, stand by if I can throw anything into it πŸ˜‚. Clearing out my wardrobe, my workspace, my bathroom etc..and Im really enjoying it. I enjoy clearing my room, clean and tidy my space area πŸ₯°.

Make up my bed every morning is my mandatory ‘ritual routine’ πŸ˜‚

5. Sell off unwanted items.

Yes!!! This is sooo cool. Previously, I just throw every of my unwanted items. But now, thanks to my Mr Love, he suggested to sell it off. Since I started, I think in end october or early november, I made around RM250 of my unwanted items and plus ++ I cleared my space. Weeee!!!!~~ Its fabulous πŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ₯°

Someone gonna pick these from my room. I have 3 aquarium πŸ˜‚ another one to let it go..πŸ₯°

Okay guys, I think thats all for now. Im sharing with you what I usually do to declutter my things, and keep myself content ❀πŸ₯°

Till then, see you again…to be continue….

Love, Sofia

Organizing “Gadget” for An Organizer Freak πŸ˜‚

HeLLooOoo everyone!! What’s up? It’s finally here!! So called – My organizing “gadget”…haha..πŸ₯°

So, I bought 3 different sizes of Rattan Box storage, to keep my blankets and other stuffs like my hairband, hair clip, sleeping mask, detox patches etc.

Tadaa!!! Cute rattan storage in different sizes – S, M and L πŸ₯°

The reason I don’t buy big basket for my blankets, is that because Im living in a small room – to keep virtual clutters away πŸ˜ƒ

Oh, and another things, the grey storage is for my undergarments. I like it to be well organize, soothing in my eyes 😍

The other Organizing “Gadget” I have in my room πŸ˜ƒ

1. The Square Storage Box (with zip on top and side) – for Towels and Bedsheets
2. Medicine Kit – all first aid medicine including Covid-19 swab test πŸ˜ƒ
3. Make Up storage – unfortunately, I don’t have much make up. Mostly for my skin care serum, hair serum, backup Parfum, Massage Oil, body lotion, hand lotion, nail clipper, haircomb, contact lens casing etc πŸ₯°
4. Clothes Dust Cover – other than Virtual Clutters free, this cover helps to keep away the dust in wardrobe. Coz, I noticed there are dust at the bottom of the wardrobe and I need to clean it, weekly πŸ€ͺ
5. Parfum and pins storage – Okay, I have lot of parfums, but these 2 are the most often I used. Easily to pickup and put back, to minimizing the virtual clutters and as a deco too. πŸ˜ƒ
6. The humidifier essential oil – Okay, okay, parfum freak in the house..whoott whoot!! 😚 So, I have my fav flavours which I often used – Hotel version: Banyan Tree, Grand Hyatt, Westin, and Hilton and typical essential: Orchid and Lavendar flavour. I do have more such as peppermint, Oranges etc, but I keep it away in wardrobe to avoid virtual clutters. ☺
7. From the back, Hotel version : Hilton hotel, Westin hotel, Grand Hyatt hotel, Banyan Tree hotel. Orchid. From the front: Lavendar.

Crystal Collections: To Re-Use?

Okay, Im pretty okay for the rest, there is only something I don’t find the purpose to be displayed on my table – My Crystal Collections.

Well, I used to put some essential oil onto it, coz I thought to make it as a crystal diffuser. But it turn out, not so good compared to wood, plus my crystal out of shapes and colors πŸ₯²

I’m thinking to re-use it for something better and useful, if you have any good idea, you can comment below, thanks πŸ˜‰

It looks horrible in a cup..
I think, some has changed color and shapes. I used to have emerald green color, but now its gone 😭

Okay, that’s all for today…to be continue…
