Webify-d

I was doing my routine blog-hopping and found this on murni's blog. It's a straightforward 20 question quiz about you and your online habits and when you're done, it will generate a significant mosaic of your web life. You can click on the things on your mosaic to get an in-depth look of your web habits.

My webified life is the mosaic pictured above. It's rather truthful except for one or two little things (I'm definitely not in the USA and im not energy bar junky, maybe the choc part!) but all in all, I still say take the quiz just for fun!

Here's a little something about the things in my mosaic signify:

Pop Magazine

Why, look at you. Clearly, you bear the mark of The Fierce. You know what's hot, but rock your own style, and can dance on that fine line that separates dandy from dowdy.

Letters

You reach into your past and explore the history that made you what you are. The letters, photos and mementos of the past are a mirror — they reflect the hopes and dreams that became today.

Watch

It's just a matter of time — to you that's not a dismissive phrase, because you know how important it is to stick to a schedule. Precise and reliable, you appreciate the reassuring tick of a well-run machine

Energy Bar

Energy, nutrition, health — those are the things you value. It's good that you also like chocolate, otherwise you'd be too boring to be anointed with the EnergyBar — a sophisticated melange of sporting intentions wrapped in a candy-like execution.

Friendship Pin

The Friendship Pin — an unbreakable bond between you and your BFF. It shows you are loyal, willing to wear your love on your sleeve (or sneaker).

Chrome Rock

Howdy Chrome user! Glad you came by to check out our shiny new browser. Give Firefox 4 a shot; you'll like life in the faster lane. Until then, here's a nice chrome stone just for you.

Statue of Liberty

Quick: look out your window. Any purple mountains' majesty? Amber waves of grain? We wouldn't be surprised, because you're in the U-S-A!

Disguise Mask

Internet Ninja! You leave no trace of your travels, online or off.

Wrench

Wield the tools to make it yours, for you are unique — and your browser can reflect that.

Transit Pass

The symbol of travel, of paths taken and untaken, of sleeping upright in a middle seat. You are The Traveler.

Silly Band

You have a bright outlook, flexible attitude, and a kooky sense of aesthetics. You're probably the type of person that appreciates the use of the word 'kooky'.

That was my webify-d , how bout yours?

honeymoon

Honeymooning? What does it really mean? Going on a holiday with your husband/wife you just wed? Is there actually a guideline? Should it be domestic? Or should we go overseas?

Somehow i find most people race to have the greatest honeymoon destination. Well, seriously if i had the fund, i'll go around the world like Prince William and Kate. Or what if i go to North Pole, i be tno on would go there right?

After my wedding, i did go on a honeymoon (with 10 others that is) to Cameron Highlands. The last time i went there was probably 10 years ago or more with my parents. And going there again with a new family sure could be a joy (or not, depends). In my case it was rather on the positive side. FIL got us 2units of apartment and it was huge! 3 rooms a living room and a kitchen we made dinner with our harvest which were mostly green.

Our trip to Cameron were mostly filled with Strawberry picking, shopping for more vegs and fruits. There were great picks like homemade jams too. And we visited the Museum which i find amusing. We also went and visit the Boh Plantation. And (let me be a bit bimbo-ish here) but omigad its so breathtaking. Please go there early in the morning cos its just serene! Food there is too good and with the surroundings and all, man i didn't wanna go back!

Seriously if you haven't been to Cameron in your life, please do because some gems are just hidden up there.

And now since 6 months ago, S and i are planning on a real honeymoon. Wait, honeymoon can be just anytime after the wedding right (be it immediate or not)? And now we're kinda torn with the destination.

There's Europe, which is wayyyyyy out of the budget as we're looking at probably RM25k budget as i'd like to show hubs where i've been before and perhaps to Scotland, Holland, Italy, France, Barcelona, and etc. Aussie, probably i'd need about RM10-15k. If i plan for Umrah RM12-15k. What if i go Bali? That might be about RM5-8k? Phuket should be RM3-5k. But I'd like to go to Universal Studios in Singapore too... and that'd be about RM3-5k.

*sigh*

Yes it's a HUGE budget because I'm just being cautious in case i go mad, shopping wise and i'd like to be comfortable accommodation and transportation-wise.

But back too reality, i've a small fund for honeymoon as there a dozen other things i've to put forward like baking classes, a new house, a new ride, a new project. You know? Maybe i should do a write-up on the reality world after a grandeur wedding. Then i might be able to help tame those bridezillas.

Ok let me start calculate or google-ing on my next budget honeymoon destination. Or start on a new saving for travelling!
