JB in July 2026 (Quick Read)

Day trip to JB is mostly about makan and relaxing.

Planned to reach around 9am but ended up reaching almost around 11am. So quick roti run thanks to sister. Then we headed to The Early Bird cafe. Nice rustic, industrialist concept cafe.

Had some spare time so we decided to do quick 1 hour karaoke session.

Found a family karaoke at KSL mall.

Next stop supposed to be hair, manicure and pedicure session. Ended up with mani pedi only.

Bonus was the food but it was meh.

My very first pedicure session. I like the thorough pedicure more than the manicure which felt like express instead of classic that I opted for.

Must have when in JB! Chagee and Sushi

Dessert run. Plenty of dessert yet I don't know what to get.

Ended up with kek batik, quesillo and dubai chocolate. The quesillo and custard pudding was priced differently even though it's practically the same thing. Shows how branding and naming matters.

Last stop dinner before the mandatory Watson stop and that's how we spent the day in JB.

Sister bought these for me. I don't know where I kept the phone string at :(

FOMO - July 2026 (Quick Read)

Lately, I've been feeling this rush to tick off my persona list of places to go/things to do.

It's tiring for sure, mentally mostly. But subconsciously I would be thinking how and when I can and would be able to do them.

The fomo in me is running high. Probably pressured by my surroundings too.

I will start comparing with others though I will tell myself everyone has their own journey. No need to rush things and to take things in my own time. But I will feel as if I'm somehow always giving in. Planning and executing a short time out just in SG alone takes up a lot of time and effort. I have to plan this and that while I see others simply taking their time and bye. Poof! This somehow make me want to rebel in my own quiet way. Help.

Update - I really think I need to learn more of being in the present and be grateful. Was thinking of all the nice things I've had, eaten, been to so far etc and I should be thankful instead of complaining or whining.
