About Me
Profile
Bonjour. Je suis RenEe.Malaysian. Current location : England.
I'm a relatively good girl, well relatively.
I don't eat vegetable that doesn't look like vegetable, which includes tomatoes, broccoli, cauliflower, ladyfinger... well basically anything that doesn't looks like a normal vegetable.
I love deserts and ice-creams. Oh yea, chocolate and creme bulee too!
I have a low level of alcohol dehydrogenase enzyme, which partly explains my extremely low alcohol tolerance.
My wardrobe consists on mainly black/dark coloured clothes. I would rather die than to be seen in pink tights.
I absolutely adore babies and toddlers and I often go gaga over them.
Take Me Away!

bel far niente
This is a sweet expression.
Bel far niente means "the beauty of doing nothing".
Bel far niente has always been a cherished Italian ideal. The beauty of doing nothing is the goal of all your work, the final accomplishment for which you are most highly congratulated. The more exquisitely and delightfully you can do nothing, the higher your life's achievement. You don't necessarily need to be rich in order to experience this, either. There's another wonderful Italian expression: l'arte d'arrangiarsi - the art of making something out of nothing. The art of turning a few simple ingredients into a feast, or a few gathered friends into a festival.
Anyone with a talent for happiness can do this, not only the rich.
- Eat Pray Love by Elizabeth Gilbert -
When I told him about bel far niente, he told me this instead: glýka tou na mi̱n kánoume típota, meaning sweetness of doing nothing. Which in his opinion, could include spending the whole day lazing along the beach, or take a swim in the mediterranean sea, or even take a road trip round the island.
Sounds like heaven to me. I think I could definitely get used to this whole new concept of bel far niente.

Post-Exam:
1. Party a little too hard
2. Slept way too much
3. Movies/Series marathon, while still lying/half-awake on the bed
4. Gained weight, due to excessive junk food munchies in the library
5. Dark eye-circles, thanks to late night sleeping and early morning wakings
In short : exam leaves me with nothing good.
BUT IT'S OKAY!
Thank God, I have something to look forward to!
