Albeit being a monthly-frequent series on my blog, I feel like the time in between each Sunday Reset is momentary as I scanned through my planner for my schedule this month. May was relaxing and although not much was happening, I am quite happy for the slowness that it brought to my life. I feel happier and clearer for what’s to come in June.
May Highlights
✧ We went to five open houses the first two weeks of May as we are still in Eid season. It was fun and the food was all good.
✦ My kids’ school held a potluck for Teacher’s Day, so I ordered creampuff and churros from my cousin sister’s food business.
✧ The school held a Fun Run Carnival at 99 Wonderland Park. My mom and sister came along with us. After that, we went to the newly-opened The Exchange TRX where we had lunch at Madam Kwan’s.
✦ My cousin brother just had a baby, so I paid them a visit.
✧ We’ve been eating out a lot, and a notable one where we went to the Alamanda Mall for dinner and ice-cream afterwards.

What I read
- I’ve only managed to read 1 book which is quite disappointing. It’s very hard to get back into reading once you’ve been away from it for a while. Hoping that I’d get my mojo again this month.
What I watched
- I watched a Korean movie called Unlocked. It was a 3 stars for me. Brilliant ideas but very poor execution. If you watched a lot of police tv dramas, you’d understand my point.
- It’s the new season of Bridgerton! It’s awesome as always but sucks that they’re expecting us to wait a month for the second part? Mm, hello police, I need to report a crime.
- I started Outlander last week and my goodness it was good. A period piece with Scottish accent? Sign me right up! #JamieFraser.
What I listened
- LFO – I Don’t Wanna Kiss You Goodnight. I love me a good boyband and accidentally finding this gem on YouTube? Yes please. I need more.
- Isaiah Firebrace – What Happened To Us and It’s Gotta Be You. Love, love, love!
What I wore
- My new phone case and charm. Read all the deets here!
- Black abaya from my mom. It’s the first thing I reach to when I need to run quick errands. So easy to put on!
What I loved
- When it comes to planning, I’ve always been a monthly/weekly girl – I don’t have a super busy day to make daily planning worth it. However, recently I tried daily planning for a few days and perfected it as I went and my god it’s a game changer for me. I don’t know how to weekly plan anymore. Daily planning is the best, even when you don’t have anything to do much.
What’s on the June schedule?
✧ I have a second cousin’s wedding to attend.
✦ BBQ night with my mom’s side of the family.
✧ We’re going to Cameron Highlands with my in-laws so that’s exciting.
Upcoming posts
✧ I’m doing a no-buy month challenge this month so maybe I can write about it after I’m done?
✦ I’ve been wanting to do a where to get WordPress themes post for quite a while, fingers crossed I manage to do so asap.
✧ My updated skincare routine and my quick makeup routine.
