I know sometimes people try to comfort me by saying, "Oh, big hips are good, in the olden days they are loved for being child bearing hips." Riiiiighto! Just let me highlight the 'olden days' part.
At times like these, I wished I was indeed back in the olden days, but then again, if I were indeed back in the olden days, I doubt I'll be very successful in the marriage market. Why? A few "minor" stuffs like I have pimple scars to start with, which is a big no-no. I also have moles.
mole noun (ANIMAL)
a small mammal which is nearly blind, has dark fur and lives in passages that it digs under the ground
- Cambridge dictionary
My hair length would be a problem too. It's currently a few inches below my ears which is a *gasp* oh so short especially if you're going to compare them to girls who have hair which rolls all the way down to their feet with a few inches to spare type. I gather that probably not all of them would have hair down all the way to the feet but hey, for me to even grow mine anywhere near my waist would take a miracle. Hear that God? I need a little miracle here. Then again, I like my hair short :P
I also trying to imagine how much shampoo required if I had hair down to my feet. Talking about that, my neighbour used to have hair that long. I saw it a long time ago when she was sweeping the leaves on the garden. I think her name was Daisy and she sang in the E&O Hotel's restaurant before the renovation. Wonder how is she...
*Sigh* Then and now ended up being not very different, on the bright side, atleast I got my make up to keep me happy here. Not to mention, the threat, "I'll sit on you!" becomes quite menacing with a size like mine. MUAHAHAHAA!
The front; The back
Talking about make up, I found that Florence aka Flo Jo, a fellow club house member has a passion for make up as well. I guess it came a little unexpected as she usually don't use any unless during a performance (she sings at pubs and lounges as a part time job/hobby) and she was sweet enough to give me her Rosebud Salve which she got from her time studying in the US! Whee hee! I remember Elyn reviewing a Rose Salve some time ago so I was happy to finally have one too. I'm so freaking greedy. But I couldn't help myself. A Rosebud Salve! Finally!
Thank you FLO!!!
The inside
To further comfort myself on gaining 1 1/2 inches on the hips, I shall now feast happily on my Snakeskin fruits most commonly known as Buah Salak over here, or Salacca Edulis as it's Latin/scientific name.
The outside; the inside, creative aren't I..? >.>;;
The creamy colour insides are crunchy and hard. It requires a somwhat unique palate to even like the bitter-ish, sour-ish, sweet-ish taste. Some people says that it reminds them of eating unripe banana minus the mush or a cross between a sweet apple and a pineapple.
What do I say? I can't describe the taste accurately so I rather not say.
I hate the preserved kind but I love the fresh ones, same goes for cherries and dates. I prefer fresh fruits and vegetables.

Envy the smoothness of the insides; the skin
I know some people can't stand the taste while others love them. My main concern for this is that I fear it's fast becoming extinct. Less and less people are now selling it and it's no longer easy to buy them. For additional information, the tree grows up to about 10 feet and thorny.
The seed
I'm feeling so creative with captions today. Geee.. =_=;
P.s: I'm super glad you called Elyn and I'm happy you're feeling a little better! That reminds me, will you be working on your birthday week?

Yoohooo ASH!! *waves*! Yes I have been away for a little while! It was my mom's birthday and I had tons of stuff to prepare!! Oh! I have a rosebud too! Only the strawberry version. It's a nice lip balm indeed. I love it.
Have to say, I like the pictures of the fruit! I wanna try it out! The tasty sounds complicated hahaha. But definitely worth to try out! But but...you think it's going to be extinct :|...*gasp* nooo
Hmm I can tell you that it can be a huge PAIN in the round area, to wash long hair. But luckily my hair isn't that long! It's somewhere at the middle of my back...hmm perhaps a little longer. But I'll go to the hairdresser next week. It's a bit too heavy hehehe.
I love your haircut! I didn't know that in Malaysia longer hair is preferred though. I;m learning bit by bit ^_^!
Oh I'm very happy to read that Elyn is doing a bit better! Oh she has a birthday coming up!! When is it ^_^?
Well I'm going to look if you have other posts!! Ciao XOXO *HUGS*
I totally love your blog.
And i do happen to know where Malaysia is. Eventhough it's because my brother and Sister in Law just came back from a 3 week vacation in Malaysia & Borneo.
They actually visited penang and loved it. They brought back a bunch of delicious rice crackers.
They are so addicting. I had like 4 and can't wait to get my hands on them. LOL So if you are up for a trade we have some lovely stuff here in Holland if you like
XoXo
