joey blogs?

(Warning: This is a long asssssssssss post // I will translate this post......soon)

Hi guys, many things happened in my life lately. I don't know where to start but I have a great urge to write a post about clubbing, a post that would help (or not lol) those who have never been to a club (eg: my little sister who turned 18 recently), those who are freaking curious, those who are planning to go to one or those who just want to read a random blog post from me.

Disclaimer: I don't go to clubs frequently. I have only been to clubs for less than 5 times but everything I am going to write next are the things I have learnt from my past experiences.

1. Always take care of yourself first 
一定要先照顾好自己
















You are not selfish for taking care of yourself first (I am not asking you to ditch your friends). When 

2. Never block drinks for ANYONE 
永远不要为任何人挡酒

When I say "anyone", it literally means everyone including that one friend of yours who tells you he/she can't consume any alcohol. This might be one of the weirdest advice you have ever seen but I find this extremely important and I would say this is one of the biggest lessons I have ever learn in my entire life.
Don't be ambitious, no matter how well you can drink, a person with bad intentions who wants you drunk will do whatever it takes to achieve that effect (eg: order a variety of alcohol to make you lose your conscious faster).








3. True love don't exist (especially in a club) 
真爱不会出现（尤其是在夜店里）

According to a study that calculates the possibility of one meeting his/her true love (click here to read more), the odds of meeting your love is 1 in 562 people while talking to people in bars/clubs will increase your odds by 9%. This shows that even if your true love does exist in a club, the probability will still be 1 in 511 people. Another study showed that (click here to read more) the chances of finding love is just 1 in 285,000 people.



Confused with the numbers? In short, the chances of finding you true love is very low, which means 
the chances of finding your true love in a club is even lower. Don't be stupid and think that the random guy who flirted with you is "the one". It's either LUST or INFATUATION.
I hate to break it to you but there is also a high possibility that the random guy is already in a relationship but yet he still choose to flirt with you when his girlfriend is not around. Yes, this happens.

4. Ladies, please bring some money with you 
要随身带着钱

Please don't expect the guys to pay all the time. Yes, if he asked you to go to a club, he should offer to pay but this doesn't mean that you don't have to bring any money at all. You never know what would happen. You should also offer to pay for a portion unless the guys insist you not to. Otherwise, be nice and offer to pay.

5. Club with your trusted friends 
跟信任的朋友们一起去



There will be situations whereby you will be asked to join a party cause someone's baller friend is paying for the whole bill. Don't get tempted to go just because it's free. Nothing comes free, you might not need to pay in cash but they might make you pay even more, in other forms.
Go with friends you trust, friends you can have fun with, friends who would look after you (and vice versa). Don't owe anyone and don't participate in parties when you already know you won't enjoy it genuinely.

6. Avoid wearing a jumpsuit 
尽量不要穿连身衣



Jumpsuits are cute but it can be inconvenient. My friend, "A" once took care of a girl who wore a jumpsuit. "A" told me that the girl had trouble in the washroom because she was drunk and so she could not take off her own jumpsuit to use the toilet lol. So yeah, avoid wearing one just so you could save yourself in the washroom.

7. Eat before you drink; drink after you drink 
喝酒前进食；喝酒后饮水

A research studied on a group of people who consume alcohol in two separate days- one where they drank with an empty stomach; another where they drank after breakfast. When the participants drink after they had food, the rate of intoxication was much slower and the blood-alcohol levels were lower (click here to read more). So, try not to drink with an empty stomach, always eat something beforehand.

After the crazy night out, you are most probably gonna experience hangover in the next day. Remember to drinks lots of water because alcohol usually dehydrates our body. For me, I like honey water but everyone has different preferences so find out what works best for you.

8. Never forget to remove your makeup 
永远不要忘记卸妆

For those who wear makeup, please never ever forget to take off your makeup. Sleeping with makeup harms your skin A LOT. No matter how drunk you are, you must not forget to take off your contact lenses (if you wear them) and makeup. Buy makeup wipes to remove your makeup, they are convenient, easy to carry and simple enough to use especially when you are lazy.

9. Not everyone who goes clubbing is a bad person 
不是所有去夜店的人都是混蛋



I think many people often have misconceptions towards people who goes clubbing. Not everyone who goes clubbing wants to get laid. Not everyone who goes clubbing uses drugs. Not everyone who goes clubbing is a wh _ _ _ or sl _ _ or f _ _ _ _ _ y. Some people like me and my friends, we just want to unwind, dance and have fun. Don't generalize under the influence of media or simply just because of that one particular person you know.

10. Never drunk drive 
永远不要醉酒驾驶



Those who drunk drive either ruin their cars, their lives or both. Get a Uber/Grab/cab whenever you can. Otherwise, call someone you trust (example: your sister a.k.a me) or someone who is sober to drive you home. Don't force yourself or anyone to drive when they can't even walk in a straight line, it's never worth risking lives like this.

11. Drunk people are more honest (and they do stupid things) 
喝醉的人都比较老实（而且很会干蠢事）



This is when you will learn a lot of things.  You will see one's true colours. You will have friends who ditch you for other guys/girls (I hope you don't). You will have friends who get drunk after a sip of alcohol. You will have friends who is as emotional as Romeo after a drink or two. You will make decisions that you regret the next morning but it's okay, learn from your past mistakes. Remember, everything happens for a damn reason.

12. Do not conform, make your own decision and have fun! 
不要顺从他人，自己做决定，然后好好享受生活



If you read until here and you feel like "Man, clubbing sounds like a lot of work and precautions", it's totally normal. I know people who think clubbing is a waste of time and money; I also know people who really enjoy it.
People will judge you no matter what you do.
If you go to a club, people will judge you and give you names like "that attention wh _ _ _" , "player" and more.



If you don't, people will still judge you by calling you "boring", "nerd" and so on.                                If you don't feel like going one, don't. 
If you feel like going one, just do it.
Trust your own instincts, do whatever is happy for you because just like what I have mentioned previously- "You should always remember YOU are your own first priority".

So, I really hope this post would (kinda) give an insight to every single one of you who is currently reading my blog. Thanks for reading anyways!

Haven't blogged in quite a while. I am struggling between if I should keep my life more privately or I should be more active on social medias. The ironic part is that these two contradict each other.

That aside, I talked to somebody I know recently. I used to view him as a friend and I used to share my concerns with him. He told me he always thought I seemed "desperate". I was shocked, I never know people view me this way. I did not realize how some of my words, actions or whatever it is would lead to such comment.

With a heavy heart, I realize, as mentioned in one of my previous posts- "You are not me". People will misunderstand, accuse and judge you no matter what. Only you know what's happening. This incident also made me realize how all these usually come from people who don't know you well. I felt more relieved now though, no point arguing with strangers, no point keeping such negativity in life. When people turn your weakness into a weapon against you, leave them and prove them wrong.


 I hope whoever who is experiencing similar accusations (no matter what that is) would feel better somehow after reading my short and random blog post. Have a nice day x

Hi guys, long time no see, I was busy with my internship work and now uni life. Today, I am going to recommend a dimsum place in Ipoh. No, it's not Foosan or Mingkok, it's a place called Chooi Yue. It's not going to super detailed, just photos and stuff.
大家好，废话不多说，今天我会推荐一个在怡保的点心楼，不是福山也不是明阁，它是翠月点心楼。此文没有写得很细腻，就只是照片和一些文字而已。


Tel: 016-534 5965/ 05-5417997
Operating hours: 7am onwards (usually they close around 2pm+) 
*They close on Thursdays 星期四休息哦
Address: 2 & 4, Tingkat Taman Ipoh 12, Taman Ipoh Selatan, 31400 Ipoh, Perak, Malaysia

Regarding the parking, there is an alley right beside the shop and it's one-way so you are recommended to park your vehicle there. Another thing to pay attention is that please buy a parking coupon because you can kena saman very easily in that area.
泊车方面呢，点心楼隔壁就有个蛮宽大的巷子，是one-way的，大家可以泊车在那里。另外请记得买泊车的coupon，因为那一带非常容易中罚单。

Hi people, I have been inactive for so long due to my schedule (and infinity laziness). I can't believe my comeback blog post is actually something unpleasant. Unpleasant till a point that I got really mad and decided to write a blog post about it.

My family members, especially my mum is a loyal fan of GOSHOP (the first TV shopping platform by ASTRO). She bought all kinds of kitchen essentials from there and all that were good memories until this happened to us recently.
