It is common to be afraid of visiting the dental clinic and I guess I am not an exception. However, I would say that I dislike it more than being afraid of it. The uncomfortable environment, the sharp tools, the rubber gloves, the bright dental light and the painfulness, just the thought of it is already unpleasant. But what can I do when I have much more interest in things other than taking care of my teeth.

My last visit was few years back and I did not bother about my teeth ever since until recently when I felt the need for dental filling as food kept getting stuck between my teeth. At the clinic, the dentist dropped the bomb saying that I have gum problem. Half a year ago my gum bleeds easily but I brushed it off thinking that it was not that big of a deal. Never once I thought it was gum problem so it hits me real hard. For an hour, I had my teeth cleaned, filled and also replaced an old filling. And guess what, the bill came out about RM 700 which is shockingly pricey! 

From that day onward, I try my very best to take care of my teeth every night. Even when my eyes are tired to the point of closing, I do not dare to simply get it over and done with like what I used to do in the past. I have learnt my lesson and I hope that I will remember this exorbitant lesson forever.

Selfie to commemorate, YAY!

Next stop, Ikea. As an efficient person (no doubt), I have already did my research and made a list of furniture and fittings that are needed to fill up my room in advance. Shopping list is the key to shop efficiently and to avoid impulse purchase which could help save our money! But to be honest, my list consists of some unnecessary items that serve the purpose to beautify my room which my father just could not understand why I am buying them. Thanks to my dad's nagging, I ended up buying only a few as I feel like he would continue to nag if I add more into the cart. So now let's check out!


Obviously, the next thing we need to do is to assemble the furniture and put them into place. Since we are not rushed, it took us two nights to finish assembling and installing them at our own sweet pace. Then I cleaned the room and started filling up the room with my "assets".

I have even DIY-ed some room decorations and they are all made out of Ikea's cardboard! Tip, if you bought anything that comes wrapped in cardboard, don't throw them out, they are very useful, like seriously.


Lastly, I added some finishing touch to my room.
