Taiwan!

2012-02-12T23:59:00.002+08:00

So me and my family made a trip to Taiwan just last week

Not much pictures from the trip as I got really tired/lazy from the bus rides.

Anyways, airplane food=D

Arrived pretty late so it was just in time to visit the night markets
Shilin Market in Taipei

yummy fried chicken

Perhaps one of my fav drinks after bubble tea

The next day

got this yummy drink from the 7-11 store

Headed over to the National Chiang Kai Shek Memorial Hall.

Tower 101

And then yummy lunch at King Ping

and then it was heaps of bus rides and bus rides and bus rides = motion sickness = extremely sick Yuki

so no more photos for that day.

Will update soon again about Taiwan
Till then!

With ❤

2012-02-01T15:25:00.000+08:00

It really isn't about how you celebrate it, but the company that matters.

Had dinner with the lovelies last weekend,
and just right before we were about to pay and leave, they surprised me with a birthday cake!

❤

Congrats

2012-01-28T16:01:00.002+08:00

To my very beloved cousin who just recently got married!

So so so happy for the both of you!

Absolut Tower

2012-01-22T13:19:00.000+08:00

As much as I love my alcohol, I do have to admit I get a little lazy with the whole refill-your-glass-from-the-liquor-bottle everytime I finish my drink. Well, mainly because my cocktail mixing skills usually gets worse over time due to the consumption of alcohol.

But, Absolut Vodka has recently launched the very first liquor tower!
This would mean that you get to premix your drinks(yay to having to pick your own cordial) and it would be much more fun when drinking with friends.

I was fortunate enough to be invited by Don on behalf of Absolut Vodka for the Absolut tower launch!

So, erm. What do you do once you have a tower?

Here's what you do

What do you need?
Well, you'll def be needing these babies for sure! oh and meet Linora Low! our very awesome emcee for the night!

Add 400ML of Vodka

Then add in your choice of cordial till it hits the 1800ml mark

add some ice

Stir

And you'll have yourself your very own make cocktail!

Enjoy!

Easy enough huh!

Anyyways, the night was filled with games, laughter, food and yeah you've guessed it! more photos!

Fix that puzzle

Yay I managed to fix the puzzle up!

Me and Louise

Such a cute photo!

With Evelyn

Samantha, Zana, Melissa and me

And def much thanks to the guy who drove me home safely that night.

Photo credits to Andrew Chiam, Nelson and Samantha

Pretty cool huh! I've had such an awesome night that night. You just can't go wrong with the combination of both alcohol and awesome company!

Especially with Chinese New Year happening, it'd be pretty cool to gather a couple of close friends and enjoy the night with the fun of having to make your own cocktail=)

Anyways!

You'd be able to find these liquor tower from the following places
Ecoba

View Rooftop Bar

Afterwerk

Neverland

Well, for those who knows me, would also know I'm ADDICTED to bubble tea.
and I've been a fan of the bubble tea from one and one store only

Carlsberg ACE Programme Graduation

2012-01-20T02:27:00.000+08:00

I was fortunately invited to the Carlsberg Ace Programme Graduation with MHB last weekend.

The Carlsberg Ace Programme was designed to educate students on their beer knowledge.
This would mean that us beer consumers would have a better beer experience!

They had a theme: Superheroes, Movie Character or Anime Characters.
Me, being my very lazy self decide to cheat a little and go as Lara Croft from Tomb Raider

I went with my camera-Popcorn
but as what usually happens(expected), I ended up spending a little more time on my drinks than I did with my camera.

Thankfully, Andy Kho managed to take some really pretty pictures so here you go=D

Carlsberg had this really cool ice breaker game where we had to try and get as many big tickets as we could that was attached to the helium balloons

AND GUESS WHAT!!
my very AWESOME group won!!=D

And now to pictures to describe that night

Melissa was the best=D She came with really yummy home-made layer cake!

SnowxWhite and Tim

Just can't go wrong when you've got a great company and alcohol to end the night=)

How did you guys spend your weekend?

Savory Bistro

2012-01-14T22:48:00.001+08:00

Just the other day, I was fortunate enough to be invited to tag along MHB for a food session at Savory Bistro, Mt Kiara

Was a little confusing to how to get to the area but I eventually found my way!(after paying 4 times for the same toll)

It's located in The Fare
See this roundabout when you're driving? Yeah, you're heading towards the right direction then
This photo is taken from the restaurant itself.

Located in the condominium block itself,

Loved the interior design of the place, it's the perfect lil chill-out spot.

Oh, they do live bands every Wednesday night too!

Lunch with the very pretty Melissa and the awesome Tim

So as per usual, I got myself a Earl Grey Tea to get my my tiny brain working. I swear I'm like a walking zombie without it.I'm such a tea addict =p

Price:RM6
Anyways, to the main point! Our food!

Cream of Pumpkin!

Creamy pumpkin soup to kick the start the meal=D
Price:RM13

Now to the hearty meals
Savory's own Cheese Burger

Tim's fav dish, I mean, what more can you ask from a burger? A 200g nicely cooked patty with melted cheese on it, crispy chips. It's just a no fail recipe for a burger.
Price: RM28

Filet Mignon Steak

Look at the size of that steak!!200grams of sheer succulent awesomeness. Medium rare steak FTW.
Price: RM50

Spaghetti Marinara

I actually really enjoyed the Spaghetti Marinara, which actually surprised me because I usually prefer cream based sauces.
Savory Bistro were really generous with the amount of seafood they have in the dish, pretty good value for the price =)
It's a little on the spicy side, which is a little uncommon for marinaras but also the very reason to why I actually like the tomato based dish. Really yummy stuff so I def recommend this dish.
Price: RM32

And how can you not end such a big meal with desserts

We had the banana split for dessert

I think the picture speaks for itself. You just,just can't go wrong with banana spilt=D
Price: RM 13

I'm really keen to going back to the restaurant again to try out their breakfast menu!
Haven't had a decent western breakfast since I got back and I really miss having Eggs Benedict for breakkie
So I'd say Im def visiting the place very much soon again=D

Le Ann Maxima

2012-01-14T14:05:00.000+08:00

So I needed more clothes( like you'd normally do =p)

and MHB informed me that there was a nice shop I could drop by at Le Ann Maxima at 1 Month Kiara!

Le Ann Maxima has 4 main clothing lines : Office Wear, Ladies Wear, Evening Wear and Casual Basics. (Yay pretty work clothes)

I've always been a colour person, so it wasn't easy for me to find nice office wear that's a lil brighter in colours.

Anyways, I managed to find myself a pretty top( actually I did find quite a fair bit of stuff for myself but I thought with the amount of shopping I've done, my mom'd kill me pretty soon)

Pair it with some nice brown slacks and you're good to go!

Oh did I mention?

From the 13th till the 15th of January, there's a special promotion going on!

Purchase RM300 and above and you'll also receive a complimentary manicure session+ Le Ann Maxima's goodie bag
Pretty cool huh!
and what's even better?

Finger food provided=D

Me and the beautiful Zana

So I'll end this post with what I say best!

Why think when you can SHOP!
=D

Random mischief

2012-01-13T01:21:00.000+08:00

Started the week off(I start my week on Sundays) by signing up for a gym at Celebrity Fitness!

then bought tickets for Mission Impossible for the 2nd time

While waiting for the movie to start, we grabbed a bite at this lil restaurant in 1utama. I can't really remember the name of the restaurant but I believe it's something that goes along the line of " Little something"

yummy=D

Watched the movie, got hungry again so we headed down to Kota Damansara for supper!

Then over the week, ze cousins are back in Malaysia so we did tons of eating again.
=D

Had to babysit this lil monster(not exactly the best idea of an activity especially after a long day at the gym)

Just gonna be posting up random food photos now so I hope you guys aren't too hungry!

And our very 1st photo for the year!

So glad to have them here in Malaysia with me ❤❤❤

oh and follow me on Instagram!

Enjoy your weekend!

Soap and Glory Haul

2012-01-08T12:03:00.001+08:00

So I was in London just slightly before the New years,

Picked up some Soap and Glory products from Boots Pharmacy.

Butter Yourself body butter

One of the very few body butters I don't mind using. Absorbs real quick into the skin and I love the scent! Its so refreshing!

Wish Upon A Jar

To be honest, I still have absolutely no idea what this bottle is supposee to do. I'm just using it as a moisturiser and I quite like the finish of it. It claims, with the aid of the collagen helps you look all younger and stuff in 21 days but I'm not so sure whether it'd work on me

Hocus Focus

Liquid Highlighter. nuff said

And the brow highlighter and pencil. Arch de Triumph

Here's a swatch

To end the post. Took the photo at St Martin.

The first of 2012'

2012-01-06T16:33:00.001+08:00

A quick update!
So it's been almost a week since 2012 started, I hope everyone is having an awesome start

My week has just been busy, running around like a headless chicken!

Tom Telford is here to visit so yay!

Went to my usual favourite place for Nasi Lemak

Still reckon it's the best place for Nasi Lemak

Village Park,Uptown Damansara

Had tea at Harrods, KLCC. Was a lil pricy but at least it's good tea

and drinks with Kok Phin last Monday

Have a great weekend people!

To the moon with mickey

2012-01-03T23:07:00.001+08:00

So when we arrived back in Fort Lauderdale, on our way to Orlando, we made a stop at

Guess where!

I'll give you a clue

no good?
ok here's another one

Was at NASA Kennedy space centre!

pretty cool eh!

The day after that was probably one of the very magical days as it was CHRISTMAS!

spending christmas in disney!=D

love the quote

Wandered around Disney Hollywood

Then I took off alone on a boat ride to Epcot!

and then it was the very much anticipated christmas fireworks!

Watching the fireworks, and knowing that I'm in Disneyworld was def a very magical way to spend Xmas.

so 2012, Let the memories begin, shall we?

Oasis of the Sea

2012-01-02T09:23:00.000+08:00

oh yeah, this was taken in Heathrow Airport

and as I mentioned in my previous post, We were in Fort Lauderdale to board on our cruise

The 2nd largest cruise(only 1 feet smaller in size than it's sister, Allure of the sea)-Oasis of the Sea

Man, the cruise was sure damn packed! Heaps of people and heaps of food!

There was heaps to do on the cruise but I think i must have underused the facilities as all I did was sleep and eat.

Our destinations were to the island in the Carribaens so I did manage to do some good snorkelling while we were on the islands, which I suppose was all the exercise I did while I was on the trip=p

Oasis of the Sea!

Central Garden

The Boardwalk

Our room

Balcony View

On the 2nd day, We arrived in Nassau, Bahamas!

I didn't manage to take much photos as I was on a excursion to snorkel and as I was alone on the then, I didn't bring my camera=(
But I did manage to take some photos of the lil town of Nassau

while walking into the town, there were some other cruises that were visiting the island too

Bahamas!

On the 4th Day
Next Stop!Charlotte Amelia, St Thomas

Then in the arvo, we went snorkelling again.Waves were so rough that day it was pretty difficult to even swim! BUT I did see a sea turtle!

And at our very last island stop, we dropped by the ever so interesting St Martin!
This lil island, probably the smallest place of 2 nations. The Dutch and the French!

Took a water taxi into the city

It was such an interesting island, probably one of my fav islands of all 3 that we've visited.

Some towel folding art stuff our room attendant folded for us. cute!

I quite enjoyed the cruise, just kinda wished they made stops to much more interesting places. Charlotte Amelia in my opinion was a little waste of our time as there wasn't much to see there.

Next post, Disney! Till then! xx

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

2012-01-02T08:36:00.001+08:00

Yay, finally met up with Bung and Scott for dinner the other day.

Had dinner at Village Park

The famous Nasi Lemak Ayam Goreng
I'm not the biggest fan of chicken, but I do really REALLY enjoy eating the fried chicken skin from this particular restaurant.

Bung! (I still wish your hair was much much longer!!)

Scott!

My mom is probably the only person I know that can organise a 3 day trip for 32 people within 36 hours.
Rented a bus,hired a tour guide, booked accommodations for the trip.

We stop by Ipoh, Penang and Kedah in the 3 days.

In Kek Lok Shi Temple, Penang

From Left to Right:
Or Etoile, Favorite, Nocturne, La Raffinee

Here are the swatches

In conjunction to christmas, Shu uemura launched a limited edition sets of makeup that was designed by one of the very famous Hong Kong movie director. WKW.

I personally love the eyeshadow palettes, it has a different picture depending on the angle you are looking at it

Here are the swatches. THe colours are unfortunately not in order but I'm sure you can make out to which belongs to which as the colours are significantly different.

The formulation of the eyeshadow are gorgeous. They are quite pigmented(to my surprise) and they do apply on really well!

Random photo to end the post=)

Food food and food.

2011-11-18T17:38:00.001+08:00

Went out for Indian food at Nirvana in Bangsar

My banana leaf set

Wilson's lamb fried rice

Went to sungai wang with Nick after and had a drink there. Think the place is call T-bowl. didn't enjoy the place too much.

Happy Birthday Hunnie

Kok Phin drop by to visit us

So on Friday, it was Avery and Sylvia's wedding dinner.

The wedding dinner was held in Bukit Jalil Clubhouse's ballroom.

The amazingly patient person who drove us for nearly an hour and a half just to get to the place(we got superbly lost)
Thank you so so so much!

It being a magician's wedding, it was really expected for them to have magic performances to entertain the audiences. 80% of the crowds that night were magicians

Jeremy Pei's performance

On saturday, me and my very amazing cousin sister in law went to Pavilion to grab some stuff.

Had lunch at Santouka

Food was actually really REALLY good. def going back again for the noodles =D

Drop by the bicycle shop to get a bicycle for my cute lil nephew =D

Sunday is the day for Dimsum ( I say that for every single day actually)I love love love dim sum!

While waiting for Mou mou to pick me up, I've decided to have a walk around the neighbourhood tp take some photos. I regretted quickly though, 4 mozzie bites in less than 5 minutes=(

Thank God Mou mou came really soon or I'd be the victim of the crazy mozzie buffet =/

Cute lil monkey in his car

Went to Yu Lu in Puchong

We had at least 5 times the amount of food in this picture. I'd say the dim sum was pretty good.=D

2011-11-06T00:38:00.001+08:00

I'm reluctantly counting down my hours.

Perth, you've been my home for the past 4 years.

From the people I've met to the food I've grown to love. My most fond memories are all here, created in Perth.

While packing, I've came to realise the things I need to say goodbye to.

Amazing western style breakfast/brunch
Shopping!
Beautiful scenery
and most importantly, the people

Vicky, Tim, Rozy, Aaron, Bung, James, Kendall and John

I don't think I can ever, ever find words to describe you guys or how important you guys are to me. You guys are the reason to how I keep myself sane(though I'm sure some people would regard me as insane). Ever since i've met you guys, you guys have always been there for me. I really don't know what else more I could possibly ask from you guys

And for the past year, I was privilege enough to be working for the "fruit" store
I've had a chance to learn so much, and have had the amazing chance to have more amazing people in my life.

If I have had to post up all the photos of the people from work, I wouldn't be able to fit everything into this small lil space so I'll just leave the photos at that.

There's so much I want to write about, the things I've learnt from you guys, the friendship built, the iChat sessions and afterwork coffees, I just don't know where to start.

I'm going to miss you guys so much.I'm going to miss Perth, so so much.

so thank you so much for the memories.

November movember

2011-11-03T02:17:00.000+08:00

Went out for breakfast the other day
Eye makeup for the day

Chapels on Whatley Street

I love the interior decoration of the cafe.
Wilson's Lavender Tea

Kimchi Pancake

Bacon and Egg Flatini

My beautiful creme de la creme tea

Went over to UWA to take some photos.

3 more days=(

Of fake blood and latex skin

2011-10-30T02:41:00.001+08:00

Warning: Picture Overload

pictures are taken from my digital camera=)
Fionn organised a really really cool halloween party on halloween weekend. Dresscode- Dress to fright.

Tom came over earlier so I could help him with his makeup.

Us before

Erm, and after

With the fakeblood on his shirt and stuff

Erika came after to get her makeup done too! She was going as Wednesday from Adam's Family. And the guy with the mask with no eyes >.< I still find that really scary!Group photo!

Before driving over to Fionn's

Fionn must have spent so much time and effort on the decors because the places looks amazing. The entrance to the very small accessories around the place was very much halloween related.

The door

Hallway

Courtyard

Living room

and the people!

Tom and Jase

Candice, mish

Ben!

Wilson came over with food after. yummy mash potato to end the night!
And that, concludes my very 1st Halloween celebration! Happy Halloween people =)

Long weekend!

2011-10-28T20:26:00.000+08:00

So next week will be my last week in Perth

I'm gonna miss the people here so so darn much.

Wilson finally finished his exams so we went around trying our luck to look for a mulberry bush coz I was craving for some mulberries(Thanks to Aaron Yeo)
Found a rather large mulberry bush just around the corner of Wilson's place ! Gonna be bringing a container to pluck some mulberries before I head back to Malaysia

Then we went for a walk along swan river.

Then finally decided treat ourselves with proper food for dinner. We've been surviving on instant noodles and Maccas to save time, not very healthy I know.

Supa IGA in waterford plaza, Karawara is finally open! Erm, I'll admit that I absolutely love grocery shopping but I'm usually not THAT excited with a new supermarket opening but this one's different!

I really REALLY like this IGA, reasons?
1) the layout of the supermarket is beautiful, the supermarket looks really classy and pretty
2) They have the cold food section all behind the glass door fridges so no more "OMG JUST GRAB WHATEVER YOU NEED, IT"S FREEZING HERE " reactions

and just when we were about to pay for the groceries, the fire alarm went off =.=

erm, I suppose I did what most people would do?- Continue paying for our products and ignoring the fire alarm

probably wasn't such a great idea because the firetrucks came fairly quickly after.

I don't know how it could have taken me so long to even notice this brand of yogurt!

It's so so so SO GOOD! I LOVE IT!

On a complete random note,
I'm looking forward to the halloween party tomorrow!
hello fakeblood and latex skin!

Glow Up Already

2011-10-25T23:21:00.001+08:00

Just a really quick post.

ARGH I hate packing!
I've just bought my tickets, officially leaving on the 6th and I'll be back in my very amazing nasi lemak land soon!

I apologize for the poor quality of the photos, it was taken from my iPhone 3gs.
It's still quite true to the actual colour of the nail polish tho.
It's def as shiny as it is on the picture
To be honest, I didn't really like the formulation of this nail polish
it was very rough and I had to apply top coats and stuff to smoothen the top layer, but heck, I still love the colour!
so here we go

Glow Up Already- OPI

oooh! and I made scones with Yvonne today, did turn out slightly a little over baked and crunchy but hey, at least it was yummy=D!

Itadakimasu!

2011-10-22T14:25:00.000+08:00

So a couple of us met up for dinner. I initially booked us a place at Nao for 4 and with our last minute changes, it became 7 of us for dinner. Thank God the place was pretty flexible with numbers.

I know the picture's a lil blurry, but it's the best I've got=(

Will, me, Tom T and Tom T.(I know I wrote Tom T twice =p, still think we need code names!)

Dan, Erika and Cyn!

Me and Will while waiting.(Love his expression!)

TomCat!

And yes, we all had noodles!
I had my Curry Udon and the rest of the group ordered Ramen
Not much pictures taken.

I personally think the gyoza was mega yums. The only downside to it is that if you don't take spicy food, don't order the gyoza.
If you are worried to what to order, just go with Chasiew Ramen with the Shoyu based soup and with egg noodles. It has got Will's approval so def one of the options you can't go wrong with.

Credits to TomCat.

The guys came over after dinner for tea

Ending the night with group photos=)

PS:Roast duck looks so cute!

OPI Rainbow Connection

2011-10-18T22:12:00.000+08:00

So Vicky got me pretty interested in this nail polish, it was pretty difficult to get my hands on them since they were really popular

I ended up buying 2 nail polishes from the OPI Muppet series,

Rainbow Collection and Warm and Fozzie

The rainbow connection, like the name, is a rainbow glitter nail polish

I absolutely love love love LOVE this nail polish.

the photo has me putting on 3 layers of the nail polish with no base or top coat.

I'll probably do a swatch on Warm and Fozzie in a week's time or something=)

Cottesloe Beach

2011-10-17T02:19:00.001+08:00

As I mentioned previously, it was a really hot day today=)
Just couldn't say no to going to the beach!

Went to Cottesloe today.

Was initially a lil hesitant to get into the water so I had a play around with my camera

And when Wilson was done swimming, he took over the camera=), so I had my lil own fun time with the waves

Came back home and my cousin Xuan was bored, so we've decided to do something a little different. We folded some paper boats, each containing our wishes and then leaving it floating along swan river. The paper boat by now probably has sunk and since it was made out of paper, perhaps will decompose within the next few days.

Wilson with his Godzilla,I personally thought it looked a lil like the loch ness monster.

Had our lil fun time with our paper planes after, competing against each other trying to out-fly one another's plane

Ended our night with Maccas.

How did you guys spend your sunday?

Summer ❤

2011-10-16T13:45:00.000+08:00

whoa, a taste of summer definitely, 35 degrees today!
Can't wait for the weather to cool down a little more so I can head to the beach after!
yay for more beach photo!=)

It's Christmas soon! Lush came out with their christmas edition soaps( I have no idea why they've not got the halloween edition products up and selling yet in stores)

Angel's Delight!
This is perhaps the prettiest soap I think they've got! It's oh so colourful and look at the glittery bits in em!

I don't usually use foundation because
1) I'm worried that my skin will breakout
2) I can't be bothered

But apparently you can use this with your moisturiser, mix it with your moisturiser in a 50:50 ratio and you'll get a very nice moisturising foundation =)

I only need a very minimal coverage for my skin so I thought this would be good for a everyday use foundation/powder. They were doing a promotion for the products at a very very good price so I thought heck why not=)

Was invited to this house party last night and guess what they have planting in their backyard!
A mulberry tree!

I've never seen a mulberry tree before, actually come to think of it, I've never even seen mulberries being sold in supermarkets!
Picking the mulberries were great fun, though a little more difficult since we had to distinguish the ripe mulberries from the unripe ones( ripe ones are in a dark purple shade)

Here's a easy little strawberry jam for summer I found on the internet!=)
You need
1kg strawberries, hulled, halved
1kg white sugar
Juice from 1/5 a lemon

1)Place strawberries in a saucepan and stir through sugar. Leave for 1-2 hours while sugar softens the fruit.

2)Add juice then cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until fruit is soft.

3)Remove 1/3 of fruit. Set aside. Cook remaining mixture until fruit is mostly dissolved and jam coats the back of a spoon. Divide reserved fruit between the jars then fill with jam. Allow to cool,then seal with lids

4)Take a photo of your food and enjoy!

iOS 5 tips and tricks

2011-10-14T00:20:00.000+08:00

Hope you guys will find something useful in here!

So for those who has already updated their phone to iOS5 and can't be bothered reading through those gazillion list of instructions,

I'm just gonna keep it real short, so here we go!

Camera shortcut- There should be a camera shortcut on your lock screen after you've updated your your phone to iOS5. If you don't see it, don't worry, just press on the home button twice and you'll see it on your lock screen

Once you get into the camera app, you can use the volume button as your shutter, but if you've got hipstamatic, this volume button won't work.
So, what you can do instead, is tap on your hipstamatic camera screen(which will then enlarge your camera view) and just tap anywhere on the screen to fire away.=)

iMessage!- It did take me awhile to figure out where iMessage was, it's actually integrated with your msg, so long as you know the other person has imsg, you;d be able to see it as it will have the imsg words at your text box.

You can change what's on your notification box in your phone's settings.
In there you'd be able to set up wifi syncing with your phone if you want to=)

and for those who are interested, make sure you download Cards.

I think that's all I can think of right now, till then

=)

Iphone 4s launch

2011-10-13T16:59:00.000+08:00

So as we all know, the iPhone 4s launch is tomorrow.

Yukiko: Oh, did you know, some people have already started queuing for the iPhone 5.
Wilson: .....o.o
Yukiko: OH no, sorry queuing for the iPhone 4s!
Wilson: OHHHHHH, man.. I thought they were gonna queue up for a year

======

I've just updated my phone to iOS5. I've always thought updating my phone to iOS 5 would lag my old 3gs, but surprisingly my phone has been responding much quicker than what it was before!
I'm not gonna do a review as you can find plenty of similar post online, but I will do a quick post on some quick tips and tricks on the iPhone 3gs probably by tomorrow.

My makeup of the day

TIll then!

Lazy day at Toast,East Perth

2011-10-11T21:54:00.003+08:00

so I'm done with uni for this semester! really hoping it would be the last too!

today was a lazy one
went out for brunch with wilson

my food, which eventually became his cause he thought his crepe was too sweet

Drop by this pharmacy as I was running out of facial wipes

Tried using it just now, the wipes are actually in a light red color and has a very light scent of pomegranate, yums!
Love how it was so gentle on the skin but still am not very sure about it's cleansing ability, did take a while before I was able to get all the makeup removed ( All I had was just eyeliner)

Anyways, I'm gonna rave about this DDF Revolve 400X Micro-Polish machine I bought. Absolutely love love love

What it includes:
Deep Cleansing brush and 2 foam exfoliator
DDF micro-polisher
DDF polishing crystals

What it claims after just one use:
Skin tone and evenness
Pore Appearance
Fine Lines
Skin Clarity and Brightness
Radiance

Significant improvement after 1 week
Skin tone and evenness
Pore Appearance
Fine Lines
Skin Clarity and Brightness
Radiance
Smoothing of bumpy surface
Improved texture

I've actually only used it once, but I'm really happy with the results. I love the fact that it is waterproof so yay to using it in the shower and that the fact that you can use your favorite deep cleanser with the brush.

It did however say on the box to not use the exfoliator for more twice a week so I'm just gonna have to wait till the end of this week to be able to try it again.

But you are able to use the deep cleansing brush everyday if you'd like, so long as you are not using the exfoliator on the same day.

I'll just have to patiently wait till the end of this week to see whether there's a visible result with the smoothing of bumpy surface and texture.

Bloglovin indeed

2011-10-09T12:46:00.000+08:00

Follow my blog with Bloglovin

let's try this.

ok, I have absolutely no idea what took me so long to discover this webpage!
I know blogger(on the old interface) had a similar subscribe feature but I've never used it as I never liked scrolling down to see the awesome things people write in such a tiny little box!

This webpage allows you to follow blogs that you like(any blogging platform), and whenever you log in it will show if if there's any new updates from the blogs you've subscribe to!

Best bit? You can search for similar categories that you enjoy reading for other bloggers! Best way to kill time when you are bored on a Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday/Ah heck everyday afternoon.

I'm addicted now! Perhaps not the best timing considering that I've got 2 assignments due tomorrow! Eeks!

Oh =)

2011-10-08T01:29:00.000+08:00

Oh, look what came in the mail today

UNT Nail Polishes

Love the formulation of the nail polish, applies on really well and the colors are absolutely gorgeous! It's half the price of OPI nail polishes so more yays!

Will do more swatches soon.

Today, we lost a visionary and creative genius

2011-10-06T12:02:00.000+08:00

He was one of the greatest innovators
Transformed our lives, and he changed the way each of us sees the world

Throughout my working life experience, he was definitely one of my mentors.

"Our parents had JFK, we had Steve Jobs. Edison gave us electricity, Jobs gave us the Jetsons in real life. We lost an icon today. Mourn him." - Kevin Smith

Steve Jobs brought us Pixar, and .

He was daring enough to believe, that he could change the world
and he did.

"Rest in peace, Steve Jobs. Your genius will live on for generations to come..." – Neil Patrick Harris

Rest in peace Steve Jobs,
you'll be forever missed.

Counting down.

2011-10-04T12:42:00.001+08:00

OK, so it's official, I'm going to be leaving australia around the 20-30ish of October for good

Still can't believe I've spent nearly 5 years here.

Met up with Vicky over the weekend

Thanks heaps hun! Still don't get how you are giving me presents when I'm suppose to be buying you stuff for your birthday!

My current favorite candle

Ecoya's Sweet Pea & Jasmine

So I have a couple of days in London before we fly over to the states for our cruise,
Thinking of going somewhere with my lovely brother and sister

Can't wait for my family trip!
Any suggestions?

=)

That last ray of sunshine

2011-10-01T20:23:00.000+08:00

Went for a quick walk at Bibra Lake

was just in time for sunset

quick tip for anyone who's planning to go there
slab some insect repellent on!
Crazy amount of mosquitos!

Days you just don't feel like doing anything

2011-10-01T12:55:00.006+08:00

Marketing Prof&Practices assignment,done!

another take-home exam,
one presentation and a report to do and I'm hopefully done for this semester!

still absolutely stoked over the news I received last weekend about my close friend getting engaged!

So anyways,Wilson suggested going shopping after I finished my assignments. How can anyone say no to that!

Drop by Kit Cosmetic and picked something up from Soap and Glory.

Sit Tight!
I've heard so much good reviews about this so I've decided to give it a go. It's suppose to work best when you're sitting down. I'm not complaining=p, with all the assignments due and stuff, I've been doing nothing but sitting right in front of my computer anyways.

Couldn't resist the temptation!
Smells absolutely delicious, it's light and fruity, perfect for summer and it kinda reminds me of the peach-scented moisturizer I bought from Biotherm.
(Pink) Inseparable : Raspberry, mango and pear +Jasmine and Orange Flowers
(Orange) Never Forget You : Gourmet Jelly beans + Golden Peony
(Purple) Vision of Love : French Macaroon+ Purple Jasmine

Not too sure how well the staying power is since I've not tried.

erm, so as I was about to head home, we came across this stall.

sigh, why am I so addicted to you.

This is their christmas package. I absolutely adore adore adore the box(and the products of course).

The contents

50ml Chanel Mademoiselle Eau de Toilette
50ml Shower Gel
50ml Body Lotion

and the free samples

I've been craving for heaps of fruits recently (images from google)
Been having at least 4-5 serves each day!
Feeling mega healthy

dried prunes are my current fav=D

and my breakfast for the past week

Easy, doesn't take too long to make and most importantly it's mega delicious.

What you need
1) Eggs
2) Bread
3) Butter
4) Sugar

-Slice the bread long thin slices
-Beat the eggs, add sugar in( you can choose to not add sugar if you're wanting a slightly healthier option)
-Heat your pan up with butter
-While waiting,soak the bread up with the egg mixture
-Add the bread with egg mixture to the frying pan
-Cook till bread is to a golden brown color

and now for the most important bit!
Enjoy your meal!
I usually like having my toast with jam or cheese.

October, treat me well and I might celebrate Halloween=)

"Whoever says Friendship is easy has obviously never had a true friend!"- Bronwyn Polson

Being able to meet different people everyday, it's easy to find people you enjoy hanging out with, even easier to find people you dislike.Making a friend is easy, but maintaining the friendship is perhaps one of the very difficult thing to do in life.

Having people to claim that they are your friends, sometimes you really wonder how often they'd keep their words when you are in trouble.

I don't need a friend who changes when I change and who nods when I nod; my shadow does that much better. -Plutarch

We all change with time, wanting different things in different stages in our lives. Hence if your friendship is based on just your interest and nothing else, then in time, it will fall apart when you've change.

Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some stay for a while, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never, ever the same. ~Flavia Weedn

If it's very painful for you to criticize your friends - you're safe in doing it. But if you take the slightest pleasure in it, that's the time to hold your tongue.
Alice Duer Miller

I'm tired, I really don't need a friend who constantly tell me how different we are or how we expect things to be different. I need one who tells me how despite our differences, we'd try and find a way to compromise and work things out together.

Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.
Albert Camus

A lil break

2011-09-28T22:57:00.001+08:00

Great Ocean Road

2011-09-19T19:07:00.000+08:00

Quick Update

2011-09-05T23:32:00.000+08:00

Yay! Flying off to Melbourne tomorrow!
Can't wait to take more photos

Just a quick update!Drove up to Joondalup the other day, had absolutely no idea where I was heading to but for some weird reasons I kept missing the turnings to the beach. Anyways, found a beach(yay!)

And oh! I did visit Bibra Lake over the weekend. This furry lil thing sure climbs fast!
Had coffee with some cool peeps today=)

I should probably start packing.Hmmm..yup should def start packing soon!

Hey sunshine, I missed you

2011-08-31T20:02:00.000+08:00

So the weather was gorgeous today, decided to head up north to the beach to take some photos (poor camera has been sitting one corner collecting dust).

At the petrol station trying to surprise Wilson

Sun was a lil too bright when we reached, so we decided to have a quick tea at Voyage

love the bright blue sky

My fav brownie

Our ricotta eggplant

Beetroot

And the Chocolate Tart

Missed the turning at Mettam's Pool so we decided to go to Bennion's beach instead.

Hmm, wonder where it'd lead me to

Oh, more rocks.

The beach was really quiet. perfect for photography

Did a lil adventure and climbed down the cliffs to take some photos

Love this one, looks as though as it's from 2 different worlds

Stayed till sunset, and now Tom's here to pick me up for froyo so till then=D

I'm not weird, just unique

2011-08-31T01:07:00.000+08:00

"You, are one weird person"

Often, that would be what people would describe me as.

When I'm sane, Im insane
and when I'm insane, I'm sane

People who understand me always do, and those who don't just won't.

I'll admit, I'm a lil of an oddball

but you know what, I'm happy being one

"They laugh because I'm different, I laugh because they are all the same"

I'd rather be happy alone, than to miserable,pretending to be someone I'm not,with someone else.

OOTD

2011-08-25T18:59:00.000+08:00

So annoyed with the internet. Gah

So, today's a nice day to head out for food(yup, def was a cold day today).

Outfit of the day

my nails=D

Went to the Pantry door at North Perth

Partner in Crime

I was actually craving really warm hearty food, but sadly they only had sandwiches and such so the closest thing I could have was my mushroom risotto

Wilson's baguette, which he got it toasted, and then realised it was wayyy too hard to chew, so he had to add milk to his bread after.=.=

Apple and Rhubarb Pie

which wilson insisted on me taking a photo of him adding the cream onto the pie

hmm, to be honest, we only decided to head to The pantry door because of the good food guide, I don't think lunch was thaaaat great in that cafe, but I think I'll give it another shot for breakfast again.=D

Went to Real Flavour of India for dinner with Tom

yummy butter Naan

Lamb Rogan Josh

Benefit, Too Faced, Jemma Kidd makeup products review

2011-05-15T22:08:00.000+08:00

So I bought myself some eyeshadows online the other day(was on sale)! Been eyeing on these for ages but couldn't bring myself to buy them(SO EXPENSIVE in retail stores)

Quoted from the Too Faced website themselves:: The benefits for these eyeshadows are
Irridescent Swirl - Offers unique shades to create a multi-dimensional smoky eye.
Innovative - A new twist to the classic smoky eye.
Baked - Allows for intense pigmentation - very glamorous!
Wet or Dry - Either finish works for a subtle, dramatic effect.

Love the packaging, Super cute!

Anyways : Deep Space

Shooting Star

Moon Beam

Super Nova

Swatches: Above are the eyeshadows applied dry and the ones below are the ones that are applied wet

I personally prefer them done wet just only because the colors are more vibrant. They apply really easily but the only downside to it is that it doesn't last really long on my eyes even with eyeshadow primers below it.

=D My Benefit package came in today! Really looking forward to these 2 products and might do a review on them soon!

Benefit blushes! oh dear lord these are the best smelling blushes I've ever had in my whole entire life! I can't really describe the scent, but it's just really yummy and sweet!
Sugar Bomb, what i do with this blush is that i usually just sweep my blush brush through the box to get all the colors and sweep the brush across my face. I personally don't really see that blush effect but it does work really well on my skin as just a brightening powder thingy.

Jemma Kidd cream blush, I don't usually use cream blush but decided to give this one a go just for 2 reasons. I've got store credit and I love the color! it's got a very apricot undertone which goes really well with my skin. I'm still trying to get it applied correctly on my cheeks tho because I find it pretty difficult get it done evenly on both cheeks.

absolutely love this blush! such a pretty pretty pink color and it really does keep up to what it promises!
Amplify cheekbones and create the illusion of sculpted features with this 3D watermelon blush. Laced with shimmering gold undertones, bella bamba is taking eye popping pretty to the third dimension...you'll never use traditional blush again!

Swatches for the 2 blushes

Ok, this is my favourite mascara of all time(well for now at least!) I have almost non existence eyelashes(asian genes =.=) but the small brush means that it gets to the hard to get places and lengthens the eyelashes a fair bit. If you are looking for a volumizing mascara tho, this is def not the right one.

so yeah! I've actually bought heaps more since, should do another review if i've got the time!
till then!

Crazy day trip to Margaret River!

2011-04-11T10:57:00.000+08:00

Chu Xuan parents came for a short visit to attend his convocation that took place on Thursday(Congrats cousin!!) and seeing how all of us had our Saturday off, we've decided to make a very short visit to Margaret River.

The drive down would usually take us about 3 hours so we left our place pretty early(7.30am to be exact!)

Reached Busselton Jetty at about 9.48am, and Chu Xuan started panicking saying that the train that leaves to the end of the jetty(which was a good 3km walk) will arrive at 9.50am, WHICH WAS IN 2 MINUTES TIME!!
so we ran towards the ticketing counter and managed to catch the train at the very last minute!

Paid 28 bucks per person(no student discount=[ ) for the underwater observatory entrance as well as the train ticket.

SO..pictures!
before boarding

lil red train

and after a good 15 minutes of freezing cold wind, we've finally reached the end of the jetty.

Headed into the observatory for our mini tour

There are 3 different levels in the underwater observatory. Each level having different types of fishes swimming around due to the sea current.
Fishes come and go in depending on season and sometimes, if you are lucky, you get to see turtles, squids and even Sharks!!

1st level

2nd level

3rd Level

After our stop at Busselton, we continued our journey down south to Margaret River.
Had our lunch and decided to make a quick drop to Miller's Ice cream.

1 scoop of ice cream for 4 bucks
2 for $6(I think?)
and their tester package which was 8 scoops for 12 bucks
well we just had lunch and since there were a gazillion of flavours to choose from, we decided to go for the tester thinking that it would be of a smaller portion. boy were we seriously wrong.

I'd consider that as a normal 2 scoops of ice cream. We had quite a few to choose from but decided that we were gonna go for Apple pie, Baileys, Cookies and Oreo, Strawberry and Custard, Strawberry Cheesecake, Mango and something Yoghurt, Raspberry and erm.. something.

What I thought of the ice cream?
YUMMY!♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

aaand we decided to take more photos

After ice cream we headed to the Dairy co., a place where you get to sample/buy cheese, the nuts and cereal store(where I bought my ridiculously spicy Chilli Achar chutney), The chocolate Factory and finally dropping by at Howard Park's & Mad Fish Vineyard to purchase some yummy Mad Fish Muscato.

After getting everything we needed from Margaret River, we headed towards our final tourist spot, Canal Rocks!.

At this time the sun was about to set and the lighting for photography was just simply stunning.
and so begin my date with my lil canon camera

Then I got lazy and didn't wanna climb any more rocks so instead of taking photos of the scenery, I got Chu Xuan and Yvonne to be my model instead.

and my absolute favourite photo

and a picture of me before we head home to Perth.

It was an AMAZING trip,
BUT I FELL SICK THE NEXT DAY!! Had a fever and was feeling all horrible and stuff the whole of yesterday=(

Sigh, My body is horrible with the cold weather. I'll die in winter, nuff said.

March Beauty Product Favourites!

2011-04-08T17:17:00.000+08:00

My very first favourite blogpost entry!

I know alot of people are doing this in a video format, but I'm just not very good infront of the camera so I've decided to blog about this instead.
These are the products that I've been using(almost everyday!) for the month of March.

I'm not exactly a person who is extremely hardworking when it comes to taking care of my skin.Usually after using my face cleanser, I'll end up putting on some toner and yeah that's all I do for my skincare routine.

However, I've been much more better nowadays with my skincare, mainly because of my recent obsession with makeup,I feel like I need to pamper my skin every now and then to make sure that it stays clean and happy.
I still absolutely dislike using moisturiser bt!(hate hate hate the sticky residue feeling after)

anyways, my favourite beauty product of last month would be

Peter Thomas Roth intensive hydrating serum
I absolutely LOVE this product! Apart from doing what it's suppose to do(very well I might add),I also love love love how it leaves a silky finish on your skin!!

Peter Thomas Roth Radiance Oxygenating Masque
It pumps oxygen into your skin!!! Need I say more? When you 1st use the mask, it would be in a liquid form, after applying on your face, it'll start foaming up....and in a couple of 10 minutes the foam will all disappear and all you'll have to do after is wash your face! Easy!
I'm not a big mask user(too lazy) but I would highly recommend this!

I know it's another Peter Thomas Roth product but I really can't not pick them as my favourites!
I've had this since January I think, only use it every twice a week but this thing, has been my life saviour when I was in HongKong.
I haven't had any of my face cleanser in Hong Kong, the weather was cold and if it weren't for this, I'd prolly end up with horrible complexion!
I bought the one that only has 0.5% of salicylic acid. for those who don't know, Salicylic helps improves acne conditions = no more pimples!

Smashbox Photo Finish Primer
Silky finish primer. Enough said <3
Too faced Eyeshadow Primer
I realised that everytime I don't/forget to use this primer, my eyemake up smudges ALL THE TIME! and when I do use it, it makes my eyemake up last so much longer!! It's a small lil tube but I've been using it since December and I'm not even halfway through the tube yet. Def well worth the money.

My to go makeup kit! I always end up just using Full frontal, Glamazon and socialite for a very neutral eyeshadow combination and it always look so so good.

As much as I love make up, I hate removing them! especially eyeliners and mascaras.

I actually didn't buy this one, it was a gift from Wilson and I only started using it in March because I was running out of the one I usually use.
It removes all your eyemakeup reallllllly well and it's just such a gentle eye makeup remover meaning no itching or stinging feeling.
The only thing I don't like about it is that because it's a oil based makeup remover, it tends to leave quite a oily residue on your skin but it doesn't usually bother me because I'll usually just wash it off with my normal face cleanser after.

My eyelashes are almost non existence.

Bought it, never looked back and def will be buying more it when I run out of them.

Lush Dream Cream

Moisturisers, it also helps improve the regeneration of the skin cell meaning less visible scar! =D

I know the next(and last product) is not at all a beauty product, but I am just SO ADDICTED TO IT it's ridiculous!

Milky oolong! No milk needed and it still taste extremely creamy, don't know how they made it but seriously, if you ever have a chance to buy it(and provided that you like oolong tea),
GET IT!

aaand I'm running really late for french lessons now. Till then!

NYX Lipstick review

2011-04-06T22:51:00.001+08:00

About 2 weeks ago, I made an impulsive purchase on cherryculture....

As if I needed anymore, I bought 7 more lipsticks to add to my make up collection.. =.=

"7 lipsticks?!?!?!?"- quote Ei jean, but in my defense each lipstick was only about 2AUD and they had heaps of pretty colors to choose from!

So anyways, I bought 7 colors,
- Narcissus
- Margarita
- Strawberry Milk
- Christie
- Watermelon
- Pumpkin Pie
- Tea Rose

Packaging for the lipstick is cute, and there's small lil compartment of the same lip stick color in a gel form for you to use it with a lip brush as well.

For the price, I'll def think it's worth it, I might do a swatch soon!

Dinner at Carvers!

2011-04-06T00:56:00.000+08:00

My heels addiction

2011-04-02T22:17:00.000+08:00

I have a confession to make. I'm addicted to heels.
Over the past 2 years, I've bought quite a fair amount of heels.
I don't wear them as much as I should because I've got pretty weak ankles but sadly, it has not stop me from purchasing more heels.

Was pretty bored today so I've decided I'll pick a couple of my favourite pair of heels and post it on my blog!
Had Ei Jean to help me with the pictures♥

My super crazy shiny wedges from Hong Kong. I still have no idea where or when to wear them but I'll find an event(eventually)!

Bought these from Pedro in Malaysia and they were on sale so it was such a good bargain.Leather heels are comfy heels=D I love how it's a dark greenish color rather than just another pair of normal black heels.

Got these from Forever New.I love how they aren't too striking of a colour and I could easily pair them up with anything.

My fav(and only) ankle boots from Nine West! I remember spending AGES finding the right pair of ankle boots because the ones I like are usually too expensive, or it just looks weird on me.

Basic platform black heels from Charles and Keith! I'd say this would be my favourite pair for now because they are just so comfortable!

Aldo, Bought them off Ebay because it was for such a good price!It's slightly bigger than what I expect but I can always add some paddings to make it work(and hopefully not trip and fall)

White strappy heels by Forever New

Denim heels from Zu.♥♥♥♥

Biker Heels from Novo

Blue Strap Stilettos from Forever New

So erm yeah..I have no idea how I'm gonna bring all of them back to Malaysia come end of the year >.<
Hopefully all goes well because I'd be devastated if I had to give any of them up!

btw, end of year trip to the states= more shopping= more heels!! =D

=]

2011-04-01T23:40:00.002+08:00

I'm as happy as a lion having lamb for dinner=]
Lazing around on a Friday night after French class is a really good feeling!

Recently addicted

2011-03-27T21:40:00.000+08:00

So I've recently been extremely addicted to

Ps:pictures all from the net
Macarons for tea

My healthy snack
frozen yoghurt!

Lipsticks

Tea for breakfast

Boots

More make up esp from Benefit.

and adding to my nail collection

I've got the pretty pink and lilac color one.

Sigh,I need more time

Haven't done much in March.
Assignments, Classes and other commitments, I hardly have time to shop now.

Hence online shopping has been my saviour.
Thank God for free international shopping, I've saved so SO much buying things from the states instead of buying it from Myer/David Jones or wherever in Australia.

=D
Ok time for more shopping before I start dating the books again.

Bird watching at Herdsman Lake

2011-03-21T11:48:00.000+08:00

Fine Saturday, and being so busy with uni for the past 2 weeks, me and Wilson decided to head out for abit of an adventure

No idea how I've decided on birdwatching since I'm terrified of birds.

Anyways, after spending a gazillion years on Tiny wings, my highscore is 196000! whee

and we finally head out for lunch at Hog's Breath.I guess the food this time wasn't too bad.

Headed over to Herdsman Lake

and the minute we got down, I saw the fluffiest dog ever!
being the person I am, I obviously got super excited!

then yeah to the not so exciting bit
mind you I was using a really huge zoom lens to take these photos.
Started freaking out when they came near me!

and finally, a picture with my partner in crime to end the post!

of grapes and cocoa.

2011-03-15T22:01:00.000+08:00

Thomas came to perth today.
brought him around swan valley.

managed to drop by this place call Kafarelah

They sell super yummy grape juice and sparkling grape juice for a very decent price!

Normal bottle for $6 and sparkling at $8
and if you are just after the grape juice(no preserves, no sugar added and stuff) in a ginormous bottle, it only cost $10!!
♥♥♥♥
So random photos from today

At swan valley

and my hipstamatic prints at Sandalford Winery

and my favourite of all

Japan.=(

2011-03-13T00:06:00.000+08:00

Unless you are living in a cave, which wouldn't be the case in this scenario since you can read this blog, you'll probably have heard of the most recent disaster in Japan.

Earthquake, Tsunami and Nuclear leak.

The earthquake was about 8000 times stronger than the one that happened in Christchurch.

My heart goes out to those the countries that were recently affected by all the natural disasters.
It's extremely heartbreaking to read the news, even more when with pictures.

All the rumours about the world coming to an end in year 2012, to be really honest, I highly doubt it'll happen.

The human population might come to extinction, but the world wouldn't.

=========
Went shopping today.

erm. camwhoring pics.

and my outfit for the day

and my extremely good looking partner in crime♥

till then.

Anyways! Chinese New year pictures!
So the night before me and my dad headed out to the salon to get our hair done, according to culture, we aren't suppose to wash our hair on the 1st day of chinese new year so hair salon it was!

my body must be cursing me at the moment.

Anyways, went to the Disney land in Hong Kong with Wilson and his family,
paid about 350 HKD per person for entrance and about 19 HKD for the bus ride there.
the bus rides are
.........horrifying.. was having really bad motion sickness by the end of the trip but I guess they made it up by having free Wi-Fi on the buses,pretty cool

Gordan's reaction about buses : "..I've got my ds, it doesn't bother me coz I don't get headaches after" =.=

pictures
Guess which one's mine?

and the beginning of a crazy trip

2011-02-02T12:42:00.000+08:00

BACK IN MALAYSIA!!

Kok Phin picked me up from the airport and erm yeah we headed off for food=D

Went to Syed Bistro in SS3 for lunch!

my yummy lunch

went home to grab some stuff

AND!!
Something happened!!

Here's the story:
We went shopping after dropping all my luggages at home,
was in 1utama picking clothes for Kok Phin and we saw this really nice pair of jeans,
had a chat with the sales person

Kok Phin: hmm, not too sure about getting the jeans now since Chinese New Year is just around the corner and I might be putting on some weight from all the good food.

AND YOU KNOW WHAT THE SALES PERSON SAID???

Salesperson: Oh, if you are worried you can always masturbate after, that always helps to lose weight.

.....WTH?!?!?!??!?!?!?

Before I could even think I blurted out saying : Oh wow that was awkward.

and normally you'd think they'd stop(especially after the almost obvious statement that it was an awkward thing to talk about)

but no

THE GUY WENT ON AND ON ABOUT IT

so kok phin decided to just shut him up and told him we are getting the jeans

which then lead to his question
: So..are you guys a couple?

me and Kokphin: nah, just really close friends

salesperson: OHHH, friends..but more?

so drastic actions for drastic moments

Me: YOU KNOW WHAT? I'm craving for ice cream, shall we Kok Phin?

The last of January

Spent a good lazy Saturday with Vicky
Watched Tangled again, love love love the movie ♥

Headed to Cream Restaurant after for dinner. Had the Gnocchi and to be honest it was just abit disappointing.

Jus Burger Review

2011-01-18T10:31:00.000+08:00

Nice,cozy interior design.

Gray ordered a Wagyu burger and Susung a Turkish burger

Wagyu Burger

Cheeseburger

Turkish burger

I was pretty disappointed though, considering how my cheeseburger hardly have any cheese in it=(

hello bella

2011-01-08T18:10:00.000+08:00

So I almost died from soap poisoning yesterday.

Here's the gist of it:

I went to lush yesterday to grab myself the soap "Honey,I washed the kids"

For those who don't know what the soap smells like, it's a honey+toffee-ish scented soap.

After shopping(which was right after work) I went home for a nap.

annd I ended up waking at night at about 10ish and was really hungry coz I skipped dinner(but I wasn't hungry enough to be bothered to make myself food)

and as usual I sat infront of my computer, went on facebook and because I left the block of soap on my table, I happily grabbed it and started smelling it(so yummy!)

So..I was happily chatting on facebook, and the next thing you know I ALMOST TOOK A BITE out of my soap!

Thank God I realised it in time,which was a good thing because that bite could potentially upset my empty tummy.

Which is the reason why I snuck out for bubble tea(Thanks William!!)

went to Timezone after, had a couple of games that really reminded me of o2jam.man I miss that game

Did a massive Lush haul today, again! =D
I got the whole Christmas gift set thingy for half the price(such a steal!)
will do a review on it soon.
Bought the yummiest candle from Peter Alexander
and some couple other stuff that made me pretty happy
I love love discounts.

and my eyeshadow for the day.

ah I love my coastal scent eyeshadow palettes=)

January

Welcome 2011!

Random stuff since I've promised myself that I was going to blog at least 3 times a week this year

Wilson's new haircut, pretty wild hey.

So I've finally had time to catch up with Vicky ♥

We were walking down Hay Street holding hands(as like most girls do when they go shopping) and out of nowhere this random seedy guy just said

:" I want to be in the middle"

that was pretty freaky.

anyways, as usual did a couple of damages while shopping

and I bought an Iphone Speaker!

for people who don't know me very well.

I sleep.ALOT.

I can sleep up to 19 hours a day and not feel lethargic,
and do it continuously for a month(yes I've done it before)
hell I can even sleep standing.just chuck me a pillow and I'll sleep regardless.

and waking me up, is not exactly the easiest the job.
most the time, if I needed to wake up 8am, I'll have to have the alarm to start ringing at 6am or I'll most likely sleep through the alarms,which can be pretty inconvenient.

So far I'm pretty happy with it. It after all is an amp so it does amplify my alarm sound so hopefully I will not wake up late for work anymore...which is always a good thing =D

The lenses tells a new year's eve celebration

2011-01-02T02:31:00.002+08:00

The gang decided to celebrate new year's eve at the foreshore

Photos are from Andrew Poole, you guys should check out his website, he does take some wicked photos ♡

So we were at the foreshore

A gang of people, photos and tons and tons and tons of hugs.Best way to end the year.

I love you Erika! you look so adorable in the picture!

much ♥♥ and I wouldn't want it to end any other way.

Disney Tangled ♥

2011-01-01T13:59:00.001+08:00

click here for more info -- Disney home!

Who's excited!!!!=D
I know I am!(such a huge disney fan I am)

Disney movies always puts a smile on my face, it's going to be on cinema on the 6th of January so I'm really excited...(and yes I know some of you guys has already watched it but shuush!)

I ~~used to be~~ still am really competitive.

Every time there's a challenge, I'd give my very best to win..especially if I'm up against the guys.

and for some odd reasons I'd always seem to be more attracted to the sports/hobbies guys usually enjoy.

I pleaded my mom for ages so she'd let me drop ballet for taekwando when I was about 6(just because I thought martial arts was cool since I was absolutely insane about Dragon Ball)

Then in highschool, I got myself into ninjutsu and yeah, my parents almost started worldwar 3.

and when I was nearly 16, I spent almost a year trying to persuade my mom to let me learn magic.

ok I know that made no complete sense to how it relates to me being competitive, but just so I can continue on with my story, we'll just accept that conclusion alright?

so, Sri KDU had a student exchange program back then. This exchange program was slightly different because we actually didn't had to pay for anything at all (yay to free airplane tickets) and I was lucky/blessed enough to be selected to be one my schools' representative.

I was sent to Kinki Highschool in Fukuoka for a week.

and there I had to attend school, which meant that I had to take part in classes and P.E classes throughout the week.

During physical education, we were allowed to pick the sports we liked. I was hopeless in volleyball but I guess I wasn't too bad in basketball, so you could easily guessed which club I decided to join

somehow someway, we ended up having to play against the guys.
and I honestly can't remember how, from a group play it became a one to one match. me vs this jap dude.

I have to admit, I'm hopeless with lay-up. If there was any chance at all I could win, I'd have to depend on my shooting skill, and I was dead set determined to win at that time.
So instead of rushing into the low post area, I decided to tried my luck and to my surprise, the ball went in and I won the game!

WHEEE! (Thank you luck!)

I didn't thought much about it at that time but it must have affected the guy heaps coz about 10 minutes later, he tapped on my shoulder asking for a rematch.

and I won again.

and this time instead of waiting for another 10 minutes, he asked me straight for one last rematch and said that if he lost he'd admit it infront of everyone else.

To be really honest at that point I was tired from all the running and the cold weather wasn't helping me breath at all, but I really couldn't say no to him because he was really persistent.
And I did a 3 point.

and I won the game again.
poor guy was devastated.I tried explaining to him it was all luck but he just walked away=(

and just before I had to leave back to Malaysia, the basketball team signed a basketball for me as a souvenir.

and there it was, taking almost 1/4 of the basketball size, wrote

次回は負けない

-I won't lose again next time.

and on a completely non related note-
HOW PRETTY IS HER HAIR!!

Coastal Scents experiment

2010-12-31T21:59:00.000+08:00

My Coastal Scents eyeshadow palettes arrived this morning =D

so i did a lil experiment with it

using a dark blue on the outer corner, gradually to a teal then a bright yellow. then adding a stripe of fuschia for the peacock feather effect.

What I'm currently wearing now
It's not a veery clear picture as i took it in quite a dark room but it's actually has got really obvious brown eyeshadow in the inner eye corner.I really like the color combination as it reminds me of a tree.

ok.

2010-12-31T00:42:00.000+08:00

It's past midnight, I should be sleeping now but I blame the late arvo naps.

random camwhore snaps.

been super addicted to blueberries

Oh I'm really excited about my Coastal Scent eye shadow palettes
will do a review on em soon!

2010

2010-12-31T00:04:00.001+08:00

so in less than about 24 hours,
it's a new year again. all the time again for a 2010 year review and a 2011 new year resolution

so I figured that complaining about 2010 isn't going to do any difference to 2010.
let's do a recap.

so early this year, we had this lil incident where the I was locked in the bathroom,the homicide case of my macbook,me being hospitalized, had yet another heartbreak, phone killed twice by liquid damage, camera also killed by liquid damage(man talk about avoiding water=.=) and etc etc etc.
so in general not my best year.

but there's always a silver lining amongst the grey cloud

so now 2010, now that I've survived you, let's see what's so awesome about it alright

this year, I've met alot of new people, and stuff that definatily put a smile on my face

well obviously my very dear gang of friends from 2009

Vicky, Rozy, Aaron, Bung, James and John.

Great friends they are and to be honest, I probably wouldn't lasted half of this year without them.
Bung left us in August to Malaysia, Aaron then shortly left us a month after as well.=( missed them heaps.

so anyways early this year, Shane came to Malaysia for a visit
had heaps of fun and memories.

We toured KL, and even made a small lil trip up to Penang Island.
So Shane, if you are reading this, I know I haven't really said much about since, but thank you for the memories =)

then came middle of 2010.
then life decided to introduce some people in my life

Wilson, I honestly don't know you could be so so so so patient with me. You are amazing.♥ Then because of meeting Wilson, I've met some of his friends too!

SIMSON YIP! I don't even know where or how to start describing you. all the lil trips we've made, the late night mahjong sessions and ice cream eating sessions honestly puts a smile to my face.

Alvin, YOU HAVE TO GET BACK HERE TO AUSTRALIA! I miss you,we all miss you heaps! so Feb yeah?

Ps to the both of you: I am really looking forward to February!

Then came one of the life changing event in 2010.

I got a job at this one place, met heaps of awesome and awesome awesome people, you know who you guys are and that's pretty much nuff said.

life sometimes can be such a bitch , but hey what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger right?
and 2010 has proven the quote pretty well. I guess I'd like to believe that I'm still alive, which I'm quite sure I am(unless I'm some weird zombie) and hopefully a little bit stronger than the start of 2010

and now that 2010 is a past.

2011 bring it on.

OH WAIT, yeah the typical new year resolution thingy.

in 2011 i shall.

eat.sleep and hopefully survive through the year.
and maybe someone could get me a lion

I know right, best new year resolution ever.

Lush Review

2010-12-23T01:03:00.001+08:00

Lush, Bath and Body Products.

oh how I am so addicted to you.

So I've purchased ~~a few~~ quite alot of products from the Lush Shop recently

Not in any particular order.Most the products I pick have a very sweet scent than a fruity one so if you are a person who doesn't like anything that smells too sweet, you'll probably won't like the soaps that I've picked.

Rock Star
Stay away if you dislike anything that smells sweet because this soap will attract ants. Initially I wasn't attracted to it because even for me, the soap smelled really sweet. Wilson however, wanted to get it because he said he liked the scent and we ended up purchasing the soap. So he used it in his shower and damn the scent that lingers on his skin from the soap was to die for. It was no longer too sweet, but still strong for you to smell it if he was to walk past you. I always get him to sit beside me after he finishes his shower coz the scent is just so amazing

Figs and leaves soap.
The top bit is actually a part of a leaf. The soap is surprisingly moisturising, I suppose the Aloe Vera ingredient does it's trick. The scent reminds me of walking through a park in autumn,the smell of freshly fallen leaves and warm air. Love it!

Angels Delight

The reason why I bought the soap was pretty obvious,it's so colorful! The scent is sweet, but not overpowering. It's not a very creamy soap so if you dislike of oily feeling soap, this it the one to go.To be very honest, I like soaps that leave you feel all moisturise, but I just can't stay away from this one because it just smells so darn good. oh and it's got slight glitter in it too!

Spice curl
-smells like your daily cup of good chai latte.nuff said.

Irredescent Glitter Bug
So this is the massage bar that I got from lush, reason was also pretty obvious, it has blue glitters in it!=)
I haven't found a reason to use it yet(only because I don't want to be walking out looking like a blue skin monster that shines), so till then.

Up you get emotibomb
Shower bombs are an alternative if you haven't got a bathtub at home. Place it at the corners of your shower and it'll fizzes up and fill your whole shower with yummy scent!This up you get emotibomb smells very citrusy, so I'd assume it's great if you want to have a fresh start to the day.

Sex in the shower emotibomb
My favourite=) I can't really put a finger to it but it smells very sensual.Love it!

The Boogg Bath Ballistic
Can't wait to use it, can't exactly give a review cause I've not used it yet but it looks pretty damn exciting from the demo I've seen in the stores. However, if you are looking for something that bubbles up your tub, I'd not recommand the bath bombs as they usually only fizzes.
Will soon post a video on it.

Christmas Eve Bubble Bar.
Again, haven't had a chance to use it but I've seen the demo for the bubblebar, unlike the bath bombs, these lil stuff creates a gazilllion bubbles so yay to more bubbles!

Once in a year massage bar
This is brilliant in terms of keeping your skin all moisturized, but if you've already have a very oily skin combination, stay away as it does leave quite abit of a oily feeling on your skin for some time.

Wilson's 22nd

2010-12-04T11:03:00.000+08:00

Wilson turned a year older yesterday

so we decided to bring him out for dinner.

Had Chutney Mary in Subiaco

no pictures because the dining experience was HORRIBLE.

we had made a reservation at 7.30pm

and we had to wait for half an hour for our tables to be ready.
Some of our drinks did not come.
food was.just okay,nothing to be all crazy about.

we are never going back there again.

anyways,
I'm done with exams(Always a yay) but my timetable is fully swamped with work.
on the brighter note i'm enjoying heaps and hopefully i'll be able to save up for a Hong Kong trip next year.

just random pictures since i haven't really been taking much pictures either

will do a proper update real soon.=)
