Something Worthy from WUS!!

Actually my main purpose of visiting the WUS Ekspo Jualan was to support a close friend of mine, Lee Ying, because she was opening her WUS stall today. For those who is clueless about what WUS is, actually WUS is a course to educate the students to become the future entrepreneurs.
So, students were exposed to entrepreneurship and were asked to sell something on Expo day,
with one condition, where they were not allowed to sell food or drinks.

Well, after finishing my LSP class, I went to take a look around the WUS expo court with my friend, Pei Lee, and we could not find where Lee Ying's stall was. Then, I saw a stall which sold something I like - Second hand story books!!! (I know I am a cheapskate..)



But these are Sweet Valley Twins books!! [Plus one Dear Amanda book which kind of have interesting synopsis and it also reminded me of my best friend.. ;) ]
And how cheap are they?? RM 4 for one?? Nope, but RM 4 for four books!!
One book for RM1, and I was like, wow~

Though I don't really favour SVT books nowadays, I had a tendency of making sure I read every series in the book that I ever liked. And these series were the ones that I ever wished to read, but never had the chance and already forgot that I wished to read them. But now, as Celine Dion once sang, "It's all coming back to me now~" I wanted to buy them so much and read them after the semester exam!!

Actually, I was thinking of buying only one book, but when I saw some of titles which I did not have the chance to read when I was 13 and 14 years old, I thought, maybe, this was just the right time to compensate them.

Besides buying these teenagehood favourite story books, I bought a cool shirt there.
Purple in colour.. ;)
(Though not my favourite colour, but I think the purple shirt colour looks better than the blue one, which is my truely and madly favourite colour)

So guess how much does the shirt costs?

RM10??

Haha, nope.. But almost right..

It just costed me RM 8!!


Total them up = Just costed me RM12!!

Plus, there is no need for me to pay for the bus fare compared to shopping at the mall because this WUS expo's venue is inside my university area.

I guess I am looking forward to the WUS expo again the next sem. I wish they are going to sell something like formal shoes and attires... ;)


P.S: By the way, I wondered how much did the students earned for offering such good bargains?

Getting the Best Out of Unhealthy Food

Being a university student, we tend to save our money by limiting the budget of our food. My hostel mates opted not to eat and sometimes ate instant noodles daily as their lunches or dinner to save budget and to save time. Everyone was busy until they had no time to tapau something from the cafeteria.

My sister, a health-conscious person that she is, used to advise me to take less instant noodles (she asked me to consume them only once a month) because as everybody knows, instant noodles are not good for health. For this semester, I did not touch any instant noodles until this morning. I prepared an instant noodle (Maggi Mee) for my lunch because I was lazy to tapau something from the cafeteria and by the way, it's lent season now and I was trying my best not to indulge in luxurious food - but actually failed because everytime after church, me, my sister and her friends would go around Prangin Mall in search for the best and worth it diner. So, at least, during the weekdays, I would try to fast, as in eating less luxurious food (not like the Muslim fast where I can't even drink, man, until now, I am really amazed at how my Muslim friends could stand a whole day without eating and drinking)..

Fasting is good too because a) we can save money, b) we can get rid of the fat in our body, c) You would not take for granted of all that luxurious, especially the home-cooked meals and not to forget d) Not need to eat that oily stuff from the cafeteria. At the same time, I did not neglect my health by eating this Maggi Mee, don't get me wrong. While preparing the Maggi Mee, I made sure it has some health benefit in it, while trying hard to minimize the unhealthy contents in it. I threw away the water that I used to boil the noodles for three times and finally I mixed some carrots inside my bowl of Maggi Mee soup and voila, a not-so-unhealthy Maggi was ready to be eaten. If possible, add an egg as a source of protein in your instant noodles, besides contributing for yummier taste. So, my sister finally agreed on my method, which actually I got from my neighbouring hostel mate who is a health conscious person. If you are to eat something unhealthy, don't forget to mix something healthy in it so that you can lessen your risk of getting the negative side effects of every unhealthy meal. But that doesn't mean you can stay safe if you eat Maggi with carrots and eggs everyday. I just mean that whenever we consume an unhealthy food, try your best to make it not as unhealthy by adding some health benefit to it. I hope I conveyed my message clear enough.

PS: By the way, I think self-prepared meal is sometimes better than the cafeteria food in terms of the hygiene and the freshness of the food. Besides, DIY food is beneficial because they are budget-friendly too and who knows you might discover a new way to make tasty, healthy, easy DIY food and ended up like Rachel Ray? ;) Try your DIY not-so-unhealthy food, such as bread with prunes or drink Cola with a slice of lemon, and many more...
