raudha ismail

You see live is a crazy thing

There'll be good time and there'll be bad times
And everything in between and I don't know which way it's gonna go
If it's gonna be a rainy day, there's nothing we can do to make it change
We can pray for sunny weather but that won't stop the rain

this temporary break for you and me is for the best
i want time to figure it out in myself
its not you darling, its me

and of course pictures of our date today
i just love sitting around and admiring the view outside esplanade
especially having it with someone you love dearly

follow your heart or your mind?

raudha ismail

everytime i eat, i will feel bad

on a lighter note, i am glad tat i have HC here to get me smiling again
adik dont sad k but i think i need my own space and this i promise myself: i wont bother u no more

"for now if i cry, just leave me alone

we wanted to eat ice-cream but not any ice-cream, we want mix-in(s)!

and so i remembered this place at sunshine plaza
wanted to try it since last few months but the shop was always closed

we started to get bored
there werent much variety on the ice-cream flavour but the mix-in(s) were great
just like the ones you can find over at cold rock: mars, toblerone and much more lah

and so ducky dine brought me out to the hot sun to find the printing shop
and the car accessories shop that never seem to be open every time we go there
ended up, he took pics of buildings and me
