Post-Halloween Shoutout!

Hello guysssss :D hope you had a Happy Halloween dressing up and scaring the shit out of people! So many places were having their own Halloween parties. I attended one of my friend's Halloween party at her place but sadly didn't dress up since I came straight from work, and the evening rain dampened my spirits :(. Still, I was curious to see how the rest would dress up~ :D

Carved pumpkins!

Part of the decorations by Shio and Potter! I feel so guilty for not dressing up especially with so much effort from Shio and Potter in decorating the whole house T_T

The 2 hosts: Shio (creepy witch there) and Potter (mummy in bling specs)

Yoke Lai also unleashed her bishie potential! With a cute fluffy spider on her head~ <3

Some Halloween themed finger food

There was also pumkin carving sessions for those who wished to try~

Jared and his rotting skin?

Rest of the group! You can see the rest of the Halloween decorations! Cool right? :D

Note to self: Should plan for Halloween costume early T_T. Thank you Shio and Potter for the invite!!! I shall dress up should there be a next time! XD

PS: Some of the pictures are taken by Raz :D so yes credits to him~

OnlyBeauty - Your One Stop Freebie Site

Oh yes you saw that right, FREEBIES. I've always love the idea 'Try Before You Buy' that was implemented by Kiehl's whereby customers can take home samples of the product for a proper trial before buying the full size product. It makes the customer feel good when they invest in a full size product knowing that it will definitely give results!

After I was introduced to Kiehl's concept, I started looking for samples to try before buying the full size product as I had very sensitive and acne prone skin :D Unfortunately not many brands carry the same ritual. Either the brand doesn't carry samples or suffer under the scrutiny of the salesperson for the next 15 minutes if you request for one >_<. Others would use the samples as an extra bonus for their customers if they purchase anything. I mostly get the scrutinized.... can't help it if I don't doll myself in skin tight clothes and heels when I visit the counter =_=. Feel paiseh asking for sample when they give me that look ;__; but I don't want to pay RMXX and not get the results I want.......

Now thanks to a group of people who understand those concerns of mine (and tons of other females XD), I introduce to you OnlyBeauty an online beauty portal that provides the latest beauty information, promotions, product workshops and yes, FREEBIES~!!!!

Havaianas 50th Anniversary (50 Anos)

The renowned Brazilian flip-flop brand Havaianas marked it's 50th year this 2012. Quite an accomplishment for a brand that has only been selling flip flops XD. To celebrate their 50 years of success, Havaianas launched their limited edition of flip flops. This limited edition 50th Anniversary pair is a tribute to Havaianas original design featuring 2 coloured soles and baby blue straps. Only 50,000 pairs of this model were produced and all proceeds will be donated to UNICEF to support its projects in Brazil.

During the celebration period, Havaianas Malaysia organized sort of a lucky draw where they had about 80 Havaianas 50 Anos pairs to be given away :D. All you had to do was fill up a form and you'll be in the running to win Havaianas merchandise!

Honestly I don't own any Havaianas flip flops as they're quite pricey. I do own a pair of Ipanema and it already feels like my wallet is crying blood D: So thank you Havaianas Malaysia for the lovely gift >w< who knows you guys could be converting me into a Havaianas addict once I put these babies on hehe~

Collected my prize today :D

Specially designed box for a special pair~~~

Tadaa! :D

2 different sole colours to represent the first Traditional Havaianas :3

With the pin of the year they started.

Oh gosh now I'll never dare wear these out since they're limited edition!!!! TAT *gets smacked in the head*

Tosaya Japanese Restaurant @ Taman Midah, Cheras

My next expedition brought me to a Japanese restaurant nestled near the rows of hawker centres in Taman Midah. Really, I never expected a Japanese Restaurant to be here since the next road has a string of hawker centers until my friend recommended me this place to meet up for dinner.

The front of the restaurant :D 

From the front door, it doesn't look like your average Sushi King restaurant. The front is hard to miss since to Tosaya word is kinda big :D You'll see this the moment you turn into the junction.

The interior that greets us at the entrance. Oooohhh look some familiar faces! :D

My company for the evening. Misao missing from the picture cuz he was late T_T

Tables separated by dividers for more privacy. 

Japanese patterned bowls, cups and teapots decorated on the walls along the cashier~

Main reason we came to this place was for the All You Can Eat Wagyu Beef!!! Ohohohoho You can choose between sukiyaki or shabu-shabu to cook your beef. 2 person for only RM88 for All You Can Eat WAGYU Beef heheh why not!! My doctor asked me to eat more beef since I had low iron count so I thought it'll be a good opportunity to pig out :D. Sadly luck wasn't on our side as the waitress told us that their stock of beef is kinda low so the Beef Buffet is Out of Stock for now...... *SOBSSSSS*

All You Can Eat Wagyu spread on the menu *sobs*

End up we had to order something else *sniffs*. I picked something from the bento sets. We saw that there were some stuffs wrapped in bacon so decided to give it a go.

Char Siu Ramen

Enoki Bacon. Enoki mushrooms wrapped with bacon

Gyoza

My Salmon with Chicken bento set

Junnie's Beef Mayo bento set. 

Quails egg wrapped with Bacon and also some Chicken + Onions

Presentation of the sets are not bad and surprisingly filling despite the small salmon piece I had ._. The chicken given in the salmon set was a bit tough and tasted almost like the Karage chicken at Marufuku (of course... Marufuku is better sad to say). As for the bacon wrapped quails egg, you can probably see in the photos that it's not very appetizing.... it isn't and the bacon is VERY small ._.

I find the pricing a little steep for what I got so far. Bento sets range from RM23+ onwards. My Salmon set was RM29 if not mistaken and I'm not that happy for the tough chicken in that set. Even the bacon wrapped items was about RM6.

The restaurant is kinda small, can't really cater to big groups. I recommend you better make a reservation before coming over especially during peak periods the place can get a bit crowded. Ambiance was nice but the crowd that was there when I was dining was horrible as there were 2-3 kids running around screaming their heads off so I sent them a glare to shut them up.... 

Even though I've got quite some complaints over the food but I'm still keen on trying their beef set hoho~ 

Ended the night with some sake :D

Thye Shin & Ai Ling's Wedding @ Melaka

Ahhh lazy lazy me can never maintain a blog at this rate @__@;; Give me a week off, and it'll be difficult for me to come back and write something T__T. Went to attend a wedding during one of the weekends. It was the first time I had to attend a wedding in another state so we rounded up a few friends and took a day trip there. Needless to say that with a one-day trip to Melaka + bunch of people = makan session!

Had onigiri for lunch at Niko-Niko Onigiri before we started our journey

Made a pit-stop at Seremban to get some Siew Pau. When it comes to Siew Pau in Seremban, Empayar Seremban Siew Pau floods the whole area. Seriously I think there's like 5-6 shops scattered all around the place including on the highway but the place we wanted to go is one of the hipster smaller shops located in the city.

Hipster shop! Kee Mei Siew Pow :D

The shop is located in one of the smaller roads nearby KFC. Even the shop itself is almost barely noticeable XD;; I found the place when I made a pit-stop at Seremban.

Welcome~~~~

Siew Pao~~~

Other pastries available~

While browsing FourSquare, we also found another place that is famous for its cendol. Since we were around the area, why not have a try? :D 

Impossibly hard to miss stall, Haji Shariff's Cendol, very green OAO

Only one person to prepare the cendol O_O

Everything is green in this place! The tiles, floor, tables, chairs and even the uniform! There's many types of cendol here but we ordered the normal and the cendol pulut since it was recommended in FourSquare.

Cendol served within minutes :D in a double layered stainless steel bowl.

I'm not a fan of cendol so I can't give any comment on it :P but the rest say it's so-so. After all the distraction in Seremban, we continued our journey to Melaka~

Reached! ^o^V

We reached the hotel about 5pm+ so we had plenty of time to change and do our makeup~ Too bad there's no showers for us T_T felt so stickyyyy.

Lepak before the event!

Outfit for the night~ Finally get to wear my asymmetrical skirt from Supre \*O*/ Think I might need to trim the length cuz it makes my legs look short ><

Me and Audrey~ Now my face shape looks different @_@

Peeps at our table~

Next table full of happy MMU-ians

Enter the bride and groom~! Congrats to them! :D

Another highlight for the night was a VERY drunk Fazri.
