Cheerios!

Today was a really weird day. My mum woke me up to sign a parcel of mine which turned out to be cornflakes from Nestle. I recalled signing up on FB to be one of the first 1000 people to get a free box of Cheerios cornflakes 300gm but I didn't think it'll take this long to arrive omg.

Tadaa~ my breakfast for the next 2 weeks? =P Now I just gotta remember to buy milk.

There's another parcel yesterday too but I wasn't around >_> CityLink threatens to return the parcel after 3 days omg @A@;; I've honestly no idea what the hell I ordered....... scratch that, I didn't order anything! @w@ Ah well gonna drop by Audrey's house tomorrow and pass her my details for collection ><;;.

The past 24 hours have been sort of productive. I got myself a new top from Paperdolls as much as I told myself not to spend anymore D8. Dammit Joanna just keeps bringing more cute stuffs in DX. Then I reached home and washed my clothes, at least 50% of them are washed now.

This morning had to clean the bookshelf =w=;; cleared a hell lot of books and my mum nagging behind me cuz the bookshelf is full. Well.... the reason its full is cuz she asked us to keep the unwanted books there as well since our house really lacks space =w=;; By the time I cleaned the bookshelf, it was already 5pm ;w; so I had to rush to Berjaya Times Square for some emergency shopping which was just to get my pimple stickers XP. Needed them desperately cuz they're the only things that are keeping me from touching my pimples. Thought of getting some shampoo but the Gliss Kur and Tsubaki shampoo is damn expensive D8... hello LYN~! >w</

The green box are the acne stickers, concentration patch that I bought out of curiosity and my Nature & Co samples that arrived in the mail last week =D

After my trip to TS, spent a while in the squash court playing tennis with the wall. I'm so happy my skills are still decent! I could still rally with the wall and play with my left *o*/. Played for about 30 minutes then jogged 7 + 5 rounds around the court and did my sit ups.

Productive day YES? XD

My Fandom Can Kill Me Someday

Anime has influenced me from way back in 2002 D8 omg that makes almost 10 years I've been exposed to Anime! Putting Sailormoon and Doraemon aside, my first time watching Anime in Jap was Gensomaden Saiyuki where I learned how to swear...... LOL. I have only 3 favorite characters up to today. Sanzo from Saiyuki who thought me that swearing is okay 8D, Ryoma from Prince of Tennis and Karupin from Prince of Tennis too! 8D

Presenting Ryoma and Karupin! Yes Karupin is his cat :P

I feel so bad for fangirling over a 12 year old boy! *sobs* Back when I was 15, I thought it was no biggie XP but now I'm nearing 23 and it almost feels like it's a sin! =w=;;; Because of him, I took up tennis and self-learn using tutorials from the web XD;; When school reopened, I joined the tennis club *w*b together with Audrey ohohohoh good times *sigh*. This was one of the very rare moments I could ever recall myself taking such initiative =(.

Another reason I joined the tennis club is because the badminton club in school is always full D8 so it's either we won't get a chance to play or we play with your neighbor 2 meters away wtf. Besides, tennis was one game I didn't need to worry about the wind messing with our ball if we play outdoors =D. Your wall is your best partner too if no one else is free *_*b I spent most of my time with the wall during the school holidays.

Sorry for the lack of updates cuz I've been so busy at office, most of the time leaving past 10pm and my head only hits the pillow at 2am, waking up at 6.30am to go back to office again T_T. I survived by watching POT which brought back my Ryoma craze *w*. I'm now dying to collect POT merchandise T_T but it'll be so hard to find by now *sobs*.

Catch the Kose Bus!

Kose decided to kick start their new year by playing mouse hunt XD;;

Journey towards Fair & Radiant with KOSE
1st Jan - 30th Apr 2011
Let's begin the NEW 2011 with a journey towards Fair & Radiant with KOSE SEKKISEI

1. SPOT a SEKKISEI Bus On the Road
2. Snap a picture of SEKKISEI Bus at any angle
3.Visit any KOSE counter, show it to our BA for SURPRISE~~

Sample of the bus wrap! Taken from their Facebook.

I happened to see the bus when I dropped my mum of so I quickly snapped a pic and dropped by the counter to see what's the surprise =D

Got a Kose Sekkisei Lotion Mask! I wonder if the gifts are different in each branch? *w*

A Day of Non-Stop Eating T_T

Wohoo I still went out even though I came back at 2.30am in the morning on Wednesday night. It's not gonna stop me from going out on a public holiday. I'll have lots of time to sleep during the CNY holidays since I'm not going to Ipoh =P. Woke up at 10am all by myself @A@, my body is probably used to the 5-6 hours of sleep I get everyday so it woke up by itself T_T so I forced myself to sleep all the way to 12. SMS-ed Ezel and fell asleep again waiting for his reply lol!

Finally dragged myself out of the house at 2.30 to meet up with the guys for yamcha at Murni USJ. I swear the whole day my money just flew to eating ;_; We adjourned to Whisk at Subang Empire for some cake but the place is full =w=;; so we decided to try The Vanilla Place. Bad, bad bad decision ._. for me cuz my food sucked ._. not sure about the rest but here's some sneak peeks of some food we ordered.

Ezel's Pavola. Honestly, I don't know how to enjoy this thing =/

Shaun's Nachos that looked really good =D

The rest of the photos are just too yellow and too unappetizing for me to put up >_> Unlucky for me, my monthly relative decided to pay me a visit 5 days early from the expected date haih. I ordered a Beef Lasagna and an Ice Lemon Tea and both of them tasted terrible. The lasagna tasted weird and it was too hard at some sides, Ezel said it was overcooked and my Ice Lemon Tea had too little lemon =( it was like they hurriedly brewed some Boh teabags then dunked the slide of lemon in.

After paying for the nasty food, we went to Toys R Us cuz some of us were attracted to the bling store D8. There's a new Nerf gun out but I'm still happy with my Maverick =D Unless there's another intense war, I can't be bothered to get another Nerf gun.

Jared got a new set of privates supported by Ezel and Shaun

I finally got my grip tape replaced too. I decided to try my luck at sports specialty shops instead of Jusco since the staff wanted to charge me extra to change my grip tape wtf o_o. I somehow suspect it's their way of making money since there's no official receipt issued if I pay them >_>.

Since I was at Sunway, I dropped by Studio R to check out the grip tapes. Boy they cost 3 times more than the ones sold at Jusco D8 but they look much better! The ones sold at Jusco were the normal grips while Studio R had a few types of grips depending on what you're expecting. I finally got the grip tape with texture since hoping it would help my small hands keep hold of the racket :3 My hands seem to always slip during practice so I can't hit the ball properly after some. Grip tape cost RM23.60 after discount T_T aih expensiveness but at least they helped me change the tape for free :3

My new grip tape =D

The staff told me I should start using it everyday so that the grip won't spoil D8 Well at least I'm forced to play then XD;; Time for me to start getting a pair of shoes next month :3 Both my wallet and heart hurts today cuz of all the sucky food I paid for =( except for the wondeful Inari and Edamame I ate at Sushi Zanmai for dinner.

Daily Digests #1801

Ah my days have been quite hectic >_< Work is piling up a lot since we won some pitches. My posts have been about life and they continue to be about life! >D I just bought another dress again during the weekend ;_; It was a very pretty dress and I didn't notice the details on the dress till Joanna showed me @A@;;

You can see Osaka, Niigata and Nagoya~! All the cities in Japan on my dress. It makes the rest of the prints look like a subway line XD;;

She recently brought her baby to the store *w* It's a long haired Chihuahua and her name is Miracle! She's such a sweetie and a really obedient dog <3

Just wanna share with you this unique stall I normally pass by on my way to office. It's just a Malay stall selling food in the morning.

But before you buy, you gotta pick a number! Damn I was number 77 by the time I arrived D8

Next beauty related event I'll be attending would be the Lancome Spring Collection Preview this Saturday :3 I do need some beauty-related stuff for my bloggie. Tomorrow's gonna be a crunch time since boss asked us to stay back T___T

Shopping and Sobbing

Damn I shoukd stay at home every weekend for the rest of the month T_T I spent so much today *sobs* Jon accompanied me to get my new specs and after trying them on together with my disastrous haircut, I feel like I'm downgrading my appearances instead of improving each year *sigh*

And my new specs too. I'll have to wait 2 months before I can go for a director's cut T_T

My new frames =D It's simple and not to flashy since I don't want people to be looking at my glasses. The frames are just nice, not too big for my face.

After collecting my specs, I went to get my scar serums and of all times they ran out of gold serum when I thought of trying on my smile lines ;_; Oh well stock should arrive next week. In the mean time I shall review the scar potion soon! =D

Went to visit Paperdolls since Jon wanted to get a dress for his friend. I ended up buying a dress for myself too T_T damn temptation. I bought another bag too since it was cute, large enough for me to take out to do my shopping and it's only RM30!!

Cute? The aunty had a very black face on when I said I'll come back on Monday to buy the bag D: sheesh....

Mental note to myself T_T stop spending till the end of the month. I still have a dress that has yet to arrive =( Seller not replying to me.... cis...

Review: Ceutical Strawberry Ice Spring Mask

Sorry for the lack of reviews lately. I've stopped trying anything for a while as my skin is healing wonderfully so I'm not risking it! My cysts and pimples are all gone and my scars are just red spots =) Problem is, I don't know which is the product that is doing the wonders XD;; I've stopped the beauty drink and the acne serums for now and see what happens. It's amazing how fast my face recovered and I'm just so thankful for it *w*

I purchased this mask some time back in August when I saw it appearing in the LYN forums. So happens the ampoule seller I go to, brings in those masks so I purchased one of each *o* one of them is the Strawberry Ice Spring Mask.

Simple packing I like =D

Effect: To soothe & whiten skin. This mask helps to soothe dry & dull skin. It whitens skin & balances up oil secretion. Luminous skin is noticeable with just 1 application. Pores will also be reduced tremendously. Use 2-3 times weekly for better effect. Suitable for all skin types

Direction: After thorough usual cleansing, toning and applying serum, leave the mask on face for 15 to 30 minutes. Press lightly with fingertips to set in place over face. No rinsing is required. Discard mask after use

Ingredients: Strawberry essence, Hydroxyethyl cellulose, Ice spring, Citric acid, Malic acid, Vitamin, Amino acid, Calcium, Phosphor, Potassium multi microelements, Aqua, Diazolidinyl Urea

Now I'm not really a big fan of strawberry honestly. To tell you the truth, I detest the smell because most strawberry products just smell so sickly and artificial that it reminds me horribly of the fever syrup medicine that my doctor used to give me when I was little. Well peeps, the same goes for this mask. It's not as strong Body Shop's Strawberry range of stuff, the mask smells lightly of strawberries enough for me to endure the 15 minutes of having it on my face.

I love the packaging as there's an area for you to tear it off neatly =) and the description is short and to the point. Damn, all packaging should just me as short as this XD;; So according to the description, I'm suppose to have luminous skin and smaller pores.

After removing the mask, I did notice that my face has less oil and the effect lasts for up to 3 days, just in time for the next application. My skin did have that lovely healthy glow but my pores are still the same size D: I tried the mask 3 times a week but I find the effects are only temporary which means I have to continue using this mask for a very long long long term to have almost oily-free skin. T_T I was hoping it would solve my oily skin problem *sigh*. Oh well, at least that's the only skin problem I'm fussing over so far, I should just be thankful that my acne/cyst problem didn't last long ><.

Ceutical Strawberry Ice Spring Mask retails at around RM2.50 to Rm4.00 depending on the seller. I would recommend this mask as a short term solution for now =D it's good especially on the night before you apply heavy makeup (*hint* cosplay! *hint*).

Lazy Bug Has To Make Short Term Goals

On the way home today I thought of the things that has to be done and the more I think, the longer the list goes and when I start comparing to the time I started on the list and how much have I completed, it goes to ZERO! ZILCH! NADDA! x_X So I'm making a list over here since the reason I haven't accomplished anything is because it keeps slipping my mind *sigh*

1. Get a haircut


2. Get shorts to prance around at home. Need 5 more pairs.


3. Get earring stand (after CNY probably)


4. Get new running shoes. Adidas maybe? Please wait for me warehouse sales ;_; I can't afford to spend like RM200 on shoes *sobs*


5. Start jogging to build stamina >_<


6. Change the grip tape of my racket. Feel like picking back tennis after watching POT HAHAHA It was the reason I took up tennis when I was 16/17 and the only spontaneous decision that I manage to keep for almost a year XD;;

TIME TO GET A HAIRCUT!

Geek Fashion Change!

My chance to get a pair of Transitions came when I got the chance to attend the Malaya Optical Eye Wear event organized by Miu. The event was a chance for her readers to check out the 2011 collection of designer and branded eye wear products. On top of that, there will be vouchers and lots of discounts for frames and color contacts! A great opportunity for those who which to stock up on contacts or those who want to invest in a branded pair of frames =D

I myself decided to go for it in case I got a good deal for the Transitions >D I've been inquiring different opticians on the price of Transitions. Most of them quoted between RM450-RM650 for Transition lens and basic frames only. I refuse to go back to my old optician as I haven't been really happy with the service he gave me. Because of them, I've been wearing tilted glasses for the past 2 years *sobs*. The last time I went to them to realign my specs, he keeps insisting they were straight >(. Long story short, I decided to go for another optician.

I was there by 11am because I mistaken the time *sobs* but at least we got parking! =D and we were the first thanks to me >_<. Good thing too as we got to have the first look at the frames and test our eyes before the crowds floods in 8D.

The moment we stepped in, we were greeted by Mr Ryan, the boss of Malaya Optical. He immediately removed my glasses saying it's tilted and asked his staff to repair it! @A@ omg such good service! It's slightly better now and they cleaned it using some cleaning machine @w@. We were served Teh Tarik and lollipops rofl while looking through their latest collection. They have quite a large range of brands @w@ there's Bonia, Tag Heuer, Elle, Coach and a lot more I'm not familiar with.

Crazy crowd as there was an irresistible promo of RM15 for a box of contact lens! Sadly I'm stuck with specs for life =(

The drawer of candy~

I picked out a green pair of frames from United Colors of Benetton and Carl Zeiss Transition lens. Total after discount was RM650 8D not too bad considering it's branded frames and Transitions. My specs have cost as high as RM800 before as they were multifocal + multicoat and they were RM250 on each side @@. I didn't mind going slightly over budget (I think it was horribly over my budget T_T) as all Carl Zeiss Transitions are reflection free, high resistant, dust and scratch resistant and blocks UV rays from the PC screen thanks to the Zeiss coatings.

After picking out my frames, I was ushered into the room for a short eye check. My power went up slightly >_< and so did my astigmatism. My astigmatism is crazily high according to one of the staff as a normal person would have an astigmatism of +0.25 while mine was +1.00 @_@. They made me wear those heavy dorky glasses with the lens inserted inside and walk around the store for the next 10 minutes to see if my eyes can adjust to the power in my future-to-be specs. Decided to roam around and catch up with a few of the girls to kill my time XD;; Met Camie, Elle and even Arisa was there for the contact lens offer haha!

Some of the Benetton frames, if you look closer, you might be able to see the price @_@

The staff helping her customers picking out the right frames. Some frames cost as high as RM800 @A@.

After paying and nibbling some munchies from the snack table, we made our way to Tropicana for our movie. Popped by Paperdolls first and got myself a polka dotted dress!

It came with a polka dot bag!!!! LOL

Lunch was Bobalicious lunch set! This is their passionfruit orange smoothie

My Chicken Bolognese Spaghetti~

Ahhhh I can't wait to receive my specs now! >w< *runs around with excitement* No more tilted specs!!!!

Malaya Optical's FB page can be found here. Thank you Malay Optical for the wonderful service! <3

Finding Something New Each Day

2011 didn't kick off at a great  start for me D: Spotted 2 huge roaches in office which means the whole office jumped out of their skin when I screamed =/ There was another one crawling near my cubicle the next day but thank god I clocked out by that time >_< Really, one fine day I might just hand in my resignation if the I start to find one each day D: I suspect that the office was quiet for 4 days so the pests thought they could party or something cuz this normally happens after the holidays D:

Colleagues birthday today. We got her a chocolate walnut cake. I nearly gagged from eating the walnuts =( cuz I generally hate nuts in my desserts.

Yesterday I dropped by the pasar malam after postponing for MONTHS. Manage to get more lashes and found some pretty ones that I can test on =D. I found some pants to wear around at home too but I'm on a very tight budget this month TwT. Total spent was around RM13 on lashes X3

Was comparing the individual pair I got to the 10-in-a-box.

Left: Lashes I have, Right: New lashes from pasar malam~ hehe they're slightly thicker~

Found good use for the box Brian gave me for Christmas 8D Fits all my lashes perfectly! <3

I'm so broke this month because I overestimated my expenses ;___; dammit. This shows that I need to get another bank account to put my savings in >_> or I could just get the cat coin box for fun and stuff all my saving money inside ;w;

The New Year with New Resolutions

Good morning world! I just woke up and cleaned my room while enduring the stomach cramps I got from doing my sit ups. The day is pretty good so far if I minus my mum's bitchings at the background. I just have to think about all those lovely books I'll get tomorrow and all is fineeee =D

How was everyone's New Year's Eve celebrations? I heard there were so many split parties going on @_@ As usual, I decided to go for much laid back chatting sessions at mamaks. Bitching ensured, gotta let off some steam before welcoming the new year.

We did have our own way of celebrating it. Have a long roti tissue =D

Now for the usual New Year Resolutions

1. Get in shape. There's at least 2 cosplays of mine that need me to be in shape. Here's to be able to achieve my desired figure. Started off pretty well so far, now is the challenge of keeping to it =P


2. Less impulsive buys! Gods I feel broke in 2010 D: I had barely any savings but on the good side, I got most of the stuff I've been dying to get so there should be less buys this year! I hope.... =/


3. Execute 2 of my cosplay projects!


4. Read more! I think the number of books I bought this year can be counted with my fingers =(


5. Sleep early! (meaning by 12 midnight lol)


6. Normally I have a slot which I leave it secret. This slot is a resolution for me to forgive and forget that asshole. It has been on my list for a couple of years and I realize I can NEVER do that. So fuck this shit, this years resolutions would be to take a swing at that pathetic piece of shit when I get the chance.
