Oh, my Quarantine Room! I love it so much! After this seven days I will have so many great memories with this place! Like laying in bed and watching TV …or sitting in bed watching TV …or walking through the room while watching TV…
Jokes aside it’s really not that bad! My room is very spacious, the food is (mostly) great and I’ve got enough things on my list which I can finally do without having any excuse of too little time or having to do other stuff! I’m finally learning how to really use Ableton to make nice beats and I have the motivation to make sports everyday! I even made yoga today! I also have some recipes I still want to publish on my food blog, maybe I’ll do that tomorrow! Of course I’m also laying around watching TV or YouTube, but this time I’m enjoying it! Normally I don’t like hanging around doing nothing that much, as I always feel stressed that I should do something else instead, but as I literally can do nothing (or not that much) and everything important for my uni is settled, I can really relax this time and enjoy watching stuff for hours.
Besides, almost all TV channels either have bad connection or are teleshopping channels in Malayan so I’m watching mostly the Asian Food Network and learn about new recipes! Just yesterday I’ve seen a recipe for a gluten free cake with homemade rice flour and it didn’t look that difficult. Luckily, I could remember the ingredients they said in the start so I could write them down. When I’m back home I’m so going to try bake that cake! It might take some tries when eyeballing the ingredients but I think I’ll manage 😋
I also finally made a little Photoshop project today! It’s been a long time since I’ve done a fun little edit there. Here’s my result, everything I did the last days and will do in the next days in one picture:
I get food 5 times a day! Breakfast, Lunch, Tea, Dinner and Supper. Sadly I’m to forgetful, so I don’t always manage to take a picture before I eat, but I will make a collage or something when I’m done with this week and have all the pictures I need. As I said, the food is mostly great, sometimes you taste that there were packaged sauces used but most of the time it really tastes great and it’s really diverse! Although a bit chicken heavy but that’s fine with me. I also get a package of Milo or Nèstum (smth like Horlics) with every tea which is pretty neat. I have a kettle in my room so I can make them myself.
Even though I can choose from two beds to sleep on, my choice somehow always lands on the queen sized bed^^
I even got an iron, an ironing board and a scale here! I don’t really need any of that but it’s nice to have anyway 😀
Something interesting I found out the other day was an arrow on my ceiling pointing to a wall. On it the word “Kibalt” is written, which is Malay for “Qibla” which is the direction towards the Kaaba in Mecca, so everybody always knows where to pray towards. Malaysia is a Muslim country, so I figured I would see religious things here and there, but I never would have thought about such simple things as an arrow on the ceiling to point the direction. I think it’s pretty cool that the Hotel even thought about this issue, I think even in other Muslim countries/ hotels here in Malaysia, you wouldn’t be guaranteed to find an arrow on your ceiling.
For the end, here’s a time laps of the view from my room:
It’s not the best and the angle is a bit off, but I just felt like it today. Maybe my next one will be a bit better^^
