Everyday Minerals: The (Girls Only) Parcel’s Here!

Achtung! Camwhore on the loose!

So yeah, I bought some makeup sample kit last month from Everyday Minerals (remember?!) and it arrived! Joy, joy! But the only frowning moment was the lid of one of the foundation tub was cracked, and much of the powder was wasted :(

Everyday Mineral is… A full coverage makeup that is easy to apply, all-natural, long lasting, and truly affordable… Makeup that is just as approachable and real as you are.

Don’t you love it already? Hehe.

I got around playing with it and managed to camwhore with my faulty camera the whole morning the other day, well, I must say, I had fun being a girl! Uh, you know, putting on make up and taking pictures of yourself? *Insert bimbotic laughs*

So anyway, the sample kit is free of charge and it includes 3 foundations, 1 blusher (All Smiles), and 1 concealer, all at your own choice, the idea is that you may blend the different shades to get the right tint for your skin colour, a test and trial kit if you will. And since EM charges me shipping fee anyway, so I threw in a tub of lip colour ($5) too, just for the kick of it!

The powders went on rather effortlessly, though I thought they were a little cakey at first, but I guess that’s only because I was clumsy. Once they were set in, the look was very natural (Even though I over did on the blusher at the first stroke! :x owh man! This whole girly business is so frigging tiring!)


1. Erm, I like this pic. 2. You're suppose to see the blusher colour in this pic, but check out my nose! It actually exists! 3. Erm, filler pic. 4. Erm, for some weirded reasons, I like this pic too. -_- Shaddap! I know lah!

As for the lip colours, personally I find it a tad too dry.

Made from 100% pure: Avocado Oil, Coconut Oil, Palm Kernel Oil, Carnauba Wax, Candelilla Wax, Aloe Extract, Mica, Iron Oxides, Titanium Dioxide.

So what I do now is I’ll glide a coat of aloe vera lip balm first before smearing the EM lip colour (Plum Dust) over it. It feels great, it looks natural, it plumps up my pouts, and it lasts quite a while. At $5 a tub (I think that’ll be around RM16), it’s the most reasonable lip colour I’ve ever bought, plus, by the look of it, it’ll last me a lifetime man!

If you’re (as in, my girl friends whom I know personally) interested to test it but for whatever reason (not having a paypal account?) not going to order it online as yet, I can lend you my kit for a try. You’ll only owe me a large McD meal, that’s all! :)

Ba Da Ba Dap Ba! I'm Lovin' It!~

P/S The makeup’s very, very minimal, I only put on all the above mentioned stuff, lined the eyes, and the curly thing… uh, mascara! Yeah. So at least on the pictures, my zits, redness and all are pretty covered and I don’t look pale. Therefore, mission (as a girl) accomplished! Oh did I mention? The makeup lasted the whole day too! :)

P/S/S Hey my room colour matches my blog's colour template! Nyahaha! So cool!

Treating Blues




These pictures always help when I feel like hiding in the deepest, darkest corner, doing nothing but getting emo and punching the wall. Silly bambi Polly hasn’t got her hair cut then; she looks so goofy with the centre parting. Hah!

The green beans are chocolates - a gift my sister bought from Bangkok. I thought they’re perfect as wedding favours. Other than that, everything else seems like traipsing on each other and making a big, ugly mess.

Movie in church tonight! I hope it’s good. It must be good, because I always feel safe and secure just being in that sanctuary. Always.

I hope I get to use those DC Super Heroes vouchers this Sunday, haven’t been on retail therapy in a really long time now. Christine was saying her best bet is crying therapy.

Yeah, that too.

There’s Hope For Kajang!

Not so much for Bangi though. But let’s just leave it as that. Hehe.

You know how we ALWAYS complain about Bangi and Kajang. How these places where we inhabit have no proper food joints, no entertainment, no cinemas, full of erm… you know, certain kind of yalams; basically, there’s just no life there. Period.

Imagine our my delight when one day we decided to venture a little further, just a hundred metre further, after the Kajang Hospital or something, we saw a spanking new shopping centre!

Like, WHOAH!

There’s Kenny Roger’s in there, there’s Secret Recipe in there, there’s a few of those little local cafés in there, OOooooOoo and, and then there’s STARBUCKS in there! LOL Not that I’m a big fan of Starbucks, but you know, Starbucks IN Kajang, like a big leap to civilisation man! :x (OK, I know Jason’s going to toast me for even saying that! Like, I'm so city girl! He’s always got this impression that a city girl like me can never survive a jungle small town life! ~_~ Well you’re wrong OK, partially wrong!)

So yeah. Yay! Let’s get happening yo!

Why The Passion Between Me & Pizza Hut Has Fizzled Out

Because…

> Their quality has gone down so drastically, it’s daylight murder!
> Their quality is so inconsistent they had me suicidal!
> Their customer service totally sucked.
> The wait (to summon ANY waiter’s attention, to place an order, having the whole course delivered, etc, oh plus, they'd avoid eye contact!) is long enough for whatever swallowed food to turn into some poison, acidic enough to kill me. And then kill again.
> The last visit, I ordered a Spaghetti Bolognaise which turned out looking like some pitiful left over noodles with left over scraps of sauce with tiny bits of left over meat barely enough to coat the left over noodles. AND, they don’t even bother decorating it with their usual sad twig of parsley!
> The next table’s spaghetti looked delicious enough for me to start comparing! AND he's got a sad twig of parsley decorating HIS noodles! >(
> The last 2 pieces of pizza that I swallowed on Monday, had me holed up the whole night and the rest of Tuesday in the toilet.
> When I visited the doc, I told her I had pizza for lunch the day before, and the first thing she uttered, “Pizza Hut?”
> ‘Nuff said. -_-

It’s time we bid goodbye, Pizza Hut! You and I just won't cut it! So long now! *slo-mo waving*

Step Aside, Genting Roller Coasters

You know what’s more adrenaline pumping than those “chi gik” rides?

By watching the figures under “Page Views” column keep going up every 20 seconds I refresh the page, and the “Unique Visits” remained at a static figure.

Elle-jay, I understand what you mean now…

Erm, it’ll be rweally rweally naish if you (yes, you! The reader :) can like, drop me a comment or something, a wave would be cool too (a moon is… well, not a social norm but if you insist!)!

Just so, you know, I can sleep well at night knowing how much you loved (or loathed. Shucks!) my doodling :]

Buy Those Earrings, Keep Some Cash

I think I’ve slowly gotten accustomed to the idea of shopping online ever since I’ve started earning a little money through paid blogging. And the icing to the cake is having websites offering coupons to give you more value-for-money purchases! One such website is KeepCash that has over 1000 merchants listed on the site with a good dose of computer/IT gadgets deals featured extensively.

I just came across this one website that really got my heart racing! Heck, it will get ANY girl’s heart racing for that matter! EarringPlanet. Uhn ha! Think you like it already? Haha!

EarringPlanet sells earrings in every possible variety you can think of - from diamonds, to pearls, chandeliers, hoops, sterling silver, dangles and drops! When it comes to diamond earrings, I especially love those studs. It’s so simple, yet elegant and classy, most suitable for all occasions that will definitely get you outshine even the host! (Oops, shhhh! :) The diamonds comes with appraisals for the higher priced range to guarantee their authenticity and quality.

And those of us who can’t afford the diamonds and pearls just as yet, they have beautiful, affordable chandelier earrings to match with your trendy lifestyles. Although their 14k Yellow Gold range makes a beautiful match with my aqua-marine blue lengha suit! (Foosh! Got to do more paid postings now on! LoL). Oh, and don't get me started on the hoops!

Open Secret

Psst girls!

I’ve just learned a simple, (so) cheap, at-home, and sure-win facial mask! I think this mask is open secret already lah. But yeah, I’m a late bloomer, I just came to know. Heh.

I’ve bought a mini tub of honey (yum!) already. Oh, excitingness! Can’t wait to try it out! And once it’s proven workable on me, then I’ll spread the love.

You can thank me later :)

God's Blessings - As Seen In The Friends I Have

Check these out!



Yeah baby, my name wired! LoL The artist also packed in some Korean-ish orange chocolate which Jason promptly finished in no time. -_-

On a different note, here’s a reminder for myself,


… we often pray for things we could get, never for things we could accomplish
for Him.

It was a little rushed the other night seeing how you comically wanting to go back to your ice cream dinner ASAP, didn’t get to thank you properly.

So here you go! Thank you! For the crafty pieces (they hold a very special place in my heart cos they mean so much to me now!), the chocolates, and the above quote which came ever so timely.

Oh Lucky Day! Tis Better Than Winning Lottery!

This is the craziest thing ever! Grrrr!

So I came out from my office, walking towards the coffee shop to buy my morning caffeine fix, I walked past a clinic, and that very moment, the doctor (yes, he’s the doctor, with the whateverscope hanging around his neck so don’t argue with me!) was throwing out something with force from inside the shop with a broom AND it hit my calf!

I looked down, looked to the right, and what I saw was a frigging RAT scrambling for his frigging life!!!!

I looked to the left, and I saw the frigging doctor in shocked with his frigging mouth agape.

I frigging mumbled to him loudly “IT’S A RAT! YOU THREW OUT A RAT! AND IT HIT ME!”

And all he frigging said was “Sorry sorry, close the door! Close the door!” and then he scrambled off into his room with a frigging fake DOCTOR tag hanging on the door!!!

I’m sorry, whaaaa? Close. The. Door???

What the frigging heck is wrong with him?! *fumes*

If it was ME who threw out a frigging rat (what are the chances?! Throwing out rats?! Pfft!) and it hit somebody (oh God forbid! Hit some one with a rat!!!!), oh I don’t know, I would at least offer to STAY LONGER to apologize and offer my TOILET and some COTTON and DETTOL to either wash the part of the pants or let the poor victim kill herself?!!!!! I mean, you run a clinic! Surely you have athousand types of drugs!

Don’t they teach this in school huh huh huh?!!!!

You know what, just gimme a moment, and excuse my profanity. Just one moment...

!@!$@##%$#^$%&%*&&%*&%&*(^(&*)(&)^)^^%@#$%&%*&(&)(*_$^$^#%# YOU!!!!!!!!

(Edit: Check this out! Oh the irony of it! Folks, do ask your docs to wash their hands before even touching you!)


Ahhh better.

Say, don’t you just love my happening life? :)

Left / Right

Last week during dinner pre-TRANSFORMERS (SOO COOL CAN DIE!), we were all discussing about left/right brainers/handers at one point, and today Jap and I were arguing debating discussing about who’s smarter and why I’m more CREATIVE than him and all (face it, jap, that’s because I’m left handed and you're a not! Poser! Hehehe); it brought to mind one conversation I had with Jason.

Makes me sound even smarter! *giggles*


Jason: Eh, you know ah, dear, the training I attended the other day, on mind mapping?


Leishia: Yeah.

Jason: Well, the trainer talked about left hander and right hander.

Leishia: Oh, I’m a right brainer

Jason: That’s because you’re a left hander. And I’m a right hander,

Leishia: So that makes you a left brain person! (At this point, do we remind you of conversations you'd have with your children? hehe)

Jason: Uhm hmm :) Do you know, if you face a problem, and you can’t, for the life of you, solve the problem, you know what you can do? Come on, tell me, tell me. *puts on smarty-pants hat*

Leishia: *matter of factly without missing one beat* Just hold the pen on my right hand and write lah. It’ll trigger my left brain and I might just get a solution by doing so! *blink*blink*

Jason: O_O You heard of this before!!!!

Leishia: No!!!! I didn’t! Promise! You asked, I answer lah!!!! I mean, it’s… common sense mah!

Jason: O_o…. you…. No…but.... no, no, no,.... how... how did you….

Leishia: Hahahahahhaha And your company paid how much to send you guys to the training?

Jason: But how did you O_O……. You’re a.......... GENIUS…. *hangs halo over my head*

Leishia: YEAH! I KNOW!!! I mean, who would have thought of it right?! Hahahahahahhaha I’m, like, so totally smart! *bimbotic laughs*

Course attended: RM 1,800
Halo: RM 9.90 (you can get from Sinma)
Being left handed (and outsmart the right handers): Priceless!

Note to Jap: nah! 4 links in total! Reciprocated ade!

Wahey! It's Tag Time!

Here’s for Kim the tagger.

Four jobs I've had in my life My job history:
I volunteered for international events before, I worked as some receptionists, clerks, and sales girls. And then I was a translator and I did some transcribing work; and a PA, and then a blogger, a writer, oh yeah, of course! How can I forget?! A wife too *curtsy*

Four movies I can watch over and over again:
Monster’s Inc (J-Boo! That’s me! :D), Transformers! (J-Boo’s also known as Deltaboo!), Taxi (some French movie I’ve watched for like, umpteenth time.), and Amélie (Audrey Tautou's shooo cute!)

Four places I've been on vacation:
The Netherlands for a linguistic camp, Vietnam for a linguistic camp, Phuket for honeymoon (ooo, speaking of which! My honeymoon photos are not up yet! -_-), erm, and some Cuti-cuti Malaysia destinations lah.

Four of my favourite dishes:
Pelita’s Nasi Kandar, Warm chocolate pudding with vanilla ice cream, yee sang, my grandma’s chap choy a.k.a “spicy and sour mixed vege pot"… I can’t think lah! My appetite for food is seasonal wan! It changes! =.=

Four places I would like to visit:
After so die-hardly wanted to backpack, which I managed to do so, alone for that matter when I was in Netherlands, I still feel the best place is where you have your loved ones and friends around. When they are around, even if it's the most ulu place still it'll be fun! And that, would be the places I would like to visit! (Awww! Aren’t you touched yet?! :)

Four most overused words:
I dunno. This one you gotta ask my housemate, Jason. And my most regular chat mates, Jap (which I doubt he can tell! HAHA) and Sailorsim.

Four gadgets that I have:
OK, I don’t like this question because everyone of you (students, underageds, minors!) has all kinds of canggih gadgets and I don’t! So you wait lah, till I get my Vaio/Dell (whichever comes first), and a Nokia N-something (the flip one, foosh foosh!), and a Canon/Sony Digicam (whichever comes first), and a PSP!!!! Gosh, a PSP too!!!!! Then I’ll come back and re-do this tag lah! Hmph!

Four TV shows I love to watch:
I. Don’t. Have. A. TV. Nuff’. Said.

Four bloggers I'm tagging:
You, you, you, and you.


PS Sponsors for the 2nd and 3rd last questions are most welcomed! Cash, cheque, bank drafts, money orders, and paypal are accepted too.

Transformer Not Just Rawks, It Brought Bloggers Together Too!


First off, have you watched TRANSFORMERS?!

OMGYouSoGottaWatchItCosItTotallyRocks!!!!!Bumblebee’sLikeSoFriggingCoolICan’tStopOooing&Ahhing!!!MyHeartClaspingInExcitementDyingOfPalpitation!!!OMGItSoRocksLah!!!!!!!LetsDoItAgainDoItAgain!!!!


TRANSFORMERS
were not exactly part of my childhood; Thundercats, Jam, Little Pony, Silverhawk, Carebears (oh yes, Carebears!) - Yes. So, all the hype about Transformers didn’t move me one bit. Nah uhn! I was strong! *Roar*

And then the fateful afternoon where we had lunch with Dohny, Jap, and the gang, where they so kindly offered us 2 tix to the movie (we paid for it lah! We didn’t cheat small boys’ money wokay!). So while I was still erm-ing in consideration, Jason answered OK! faster than lightning.

And boy was I glad he said OK! SOOOO COOL CAN DIE. The part where Mikaela mentioned how old and crappy the old Camaro was, and foosh! biissaarrrzzzppphoosh! BumbleBee just transformed into the 2008 preproduction of the Camaro. SOOO COOL CAN DIE. Ooh, and the car chase scene between BumbleBee and the bad police autobot, the music!!!! SOOOO COOL CAN DIE!!!!! That scene made me wanted to do 5 times Ribena Berry’s skippity skip!!!! SOOO COOL CAN DIE!!!!! And Linkin Park’s song at the end of the movie. SOOO COOL CAN DIE 3 TIMES!!!!


WE. MUST. WATCH. IT. AGAIN!!!

The anti climax part was from Jason - “why everyone so excited ah? Very nice meh?”

O_O “very nice meh?” !!! -_-'''

Oh so the part about TRANSFORMERS brought bloggers together is liddis: Dohny came with a couple friends. Dohny introduced us. Hello. Hello. *Smile*. *Smile*. Dohny mentioned the name that ends with “no”, or something along the line. It was noisy. So that was it. New friends, old friends, all went watched TRANSFORMERS together. Happy, happy, joy, joy!

Then today, I got a comment on my blog:


This is going to be weird but... OMG we watched Transformers together! I thought
you and your husband looked familiar when Donny introduced us...

That came from Adino. A fellow blogger who dropped by my blog through blogsreview.net who did a review on my blog some time ago! *GASP*

Turns out, he’s an old member of our church (or something like that), and so he sorta recognized us! But he kept his cool and didn’t ask (what lah! LOL).

I was like I-can’t-stop-using-exclamation-marks-already!!!! The world is soooo schmall!!!!

See, Transformers’ SOOOO COOOL CAN DIE right?!!!

OK. Need. Water. My mouth gawked too long already. It's too hot in here. Tongue’s dried up. Typing this post is better than going to Starbucks. I get 10 shots of Macchiato at one go! O.O

Must watch TRANSFORMERS OKAY!!!!!






Transformers! More than meets the eyeeeeee!
Transformers! Robots in Disguiseeeeeee!!!
Transformers!!!

Just Another Mundane Sat’day, Until!

It was 9-ish at night and we were tired. Most Saturdays will have us travelling a good 40 minutes minimum in the morn’ to PJ where my family lives, and most activities and friends reside. I have no problem with the distance but it’s a different story with Jason.

Anyway, we were at Kelana’s Giant wanting to stock up on groceries and toiletries. As we entered the hypermarket, there were 2 rows of ice cream fridges lining up the entrance and I was saying hey, let’s have ice cream later. Right after I said that, we both stoned dead midway.

Fuggalingam! The vouchers! O_O We both resounded.

See, miche gave us a $50 Haagen Daaz vouchers half a year ago, which expire on the 30th June. We’ve been savouring them one piece at a time, making sure there’s a good interval of at least 2 months before we use the next.

So the last two $10 vouchers were even more preciously kept and guarded, waiting to be savoured at just the right moment.

So Saturday was 30th June -_-

And we only realized that at 9pm. And we were like, 20 minutes drive away from 1U, the nearest HD parlour before it closes at 10pm. PLUS, may I mention, Saturday night traffic? =_= Ding dong-ly mad!

I was kicking myself! Seeing that, Jason said, let’s go for it lah! Sure can reach wan!

So he dragged and forced me into the car (the only reason for my reluctance was because of this equation: Beating Time + Jason’s Fearless Driving Skills + (Bad Traffic x Jason’s Eternal Hatred For Traffic Jams)² = Messed-Up Hair + A Freaked-Out Me (my heart is weak you see -_-)

But we so managed!!! And we had this to celebrate:

this is called Flower Blossom. Teehee ---^ 6 scoops you knowww~

I know!!! So cool right?!!

SIX glorious scoops of ice creams, hot momma ballooona!!! That night, I RIP-ed slept very well…

OhMyGawd He Just Won’t Stop Bugging Me!

For Yasmin Ahmad’s phone number! Yasmin Ahmad’s frigging phone number! Not that I have it! I've never talked to her before! O_o

Jason. That’s who! The whole of the weekend, “why you didn’t get her phone number when you met her? I want to be an actor. Why you didn’t huh? You should mah!!!! Why you didn’t get her phone number when you met her wohhhhh???? But you met her! I want to be an actor! I want to ask her if there’s any vacancy. Why you didn’t get her phone number when you met her huh huh huh?”…. Ngam ngam cham cham the whole weekend.

Until I cannot tahan, I said, nicely, “Dear, Yasmin Ahmad’s style of movie is very different from Bollywood movies lah. You cannot make it wan are not suitable lah.”

Then he gave me a “-_-" look. Then he decided he was offended and refused to talk to me for half an hour. Then he started again.

“why you didn’t get her phone number when you met her? I want to be an actor. Why you didn’t huh? You should mah!!!! Why you didn’t get her phone number when you met her wohhhhh???? But you met her! I want to be an actor! I want to ask her if there’s any vacancy. Why you didn’t get her phone number when you met her huh huh huh?”…. -_-

Ohfortheloveofgawd! The dude's so adamant! What. Got. Into. Him??? What have I done to deserve this??? He. Won’t. Stop!!!

Save… me… *reaches out hand* Save… me… please... Just shoot me!

My Weekend Kicked Ass Because...

I sank my teeth in Burger King’s juicy Whopper Burger!


I popped cherries for the first time! O_O (Wahaha, I love lewd jokes! I know! I’m so farny!) tis' nothing to do with lewdness. It's just cherries the FRUIT!!!


I had durians after soooo long! And now I feel a bit sick. +_+


I get to have bak zhang finally! I almost lost hope of tasting it this year!



I’m so craving for a good old cheese sandwich now, preferably with ham inside! :D

Friday, June 22, 2007

O.O I’m So Frigging Excited!!!

I bought this




which is a FREE sample kit! (How awesome right?!) But since they charge me shipping to send over the kit, so I throw in this to the cart too for 5 buck!






Oh fingers crossed, crossed the parcel will arrive safely and perfectly, and in tact! x.x

I’ll do a review and post again when these all-natural-ingredients babies are in my hands!

PS I’m off to Melaka for the weekend! I hope y’all have a good one too! Sick bugs go away!

Don’t Buy New Balance Shoes

...if you are not a loyal sorta person. The shoes’ so tahan lasak, they just will not die on me. No matter what, they will. Not. Die! -_-

I bought a pair of New Balance shoes almost 3 years ago, on discount, so the price tag was like, RM 169.90 plus minus 90 cents. Consider normal price right for a decent pair of sport shoes? Right? I mean Bata’s Power sport shoes also about the same price if not more, right? So give and take a little here and there, the same pair of Bata’s Power shoes will like all fall apart in a year or two’s time, right? So the same should apply to the pair of New Balance mah, right? I mean, give it 1 more year lah, make it four three. I mean, RM 169.90. What more can you expect right?

Wrong.

At first I wore my spanking new NB shoes (with super cool purple splashes) almost every weekend. And then every other day. Now I wear them to work every day. I wear them to church. I wear them to Home Life. Sometimes I wear them to cover events. I wear them while I'm driving and riding on LRTs.

They went with me to Kuantan. They went with me to JB. They went with me umpteenth time to Melaka. Then there’s Langkawi, Penang, Ipoh, Kota Baru, and Seremban. They also trudge the Singaporean ground. They went up to the Pahang cemetery hills and right down to the Pahang Rivers, hiked the FRIM jungle, and along its canopy walk. Then to Phuket island and walked the length of Patong beach and the streets and alleys. And to my officially first church camp in Port Dickson. I explored Bangi, Serdang, Seri Kembangan, and Kajang wearing the same pair of trusty ole NB. And walked Polly around Kelana Jaya in the evenings and picked up her shits too. -_-

Oh, and I took my bridal photographs in them too! Yes, white bridal gowns and New Balance shoes!

I walk in them, jog, run, march, hike, trek, and chase. I go to mamak in them. I discover the Subang eateries with the rowdy beautiful bunch of youth and young adults on after-service Sundays in them.

See, I lived my entire, past 3 years in them (and counting)! And they are still kicking asses left and right!

They still…. show no sign of dying. =_=

Whereas Jason’s Nike kaputed in less than 2 years! LOL Not funny. I want new shoes!!! *whines*wails*tantrums*


*This is NOT a paid post ah!*

Kesiannya!!!!! T___T

Everyone's Talking About Six.4.One!

So I talk also lah...


1) Where it all happened. 2) six.4.one at work. 3) Tickets fresh from the oven! Excitingness!

The 6in1 641 production that took place recently in my church reminded me of my schooling days where I was all hot for theatre and plays. Uh, being the audience though, not the actor. I have stage fright. Hehe.

The youth and the young adults were an incredible bunch to pull the whole thing through. Essentially, “641” means 6 plays for 1 purpose. And with that one purpose, everyone traversed differences and became one body, one voice, one heart. So touching isn't it?! (T__T)

Through out the whole time, I was standing at the back of the sanctuary, just breathing in everything from corner to corner. It was astounding! The lightings, the people, the plays, the sea of audience, the UV lights, the sound, the smell of dry ice, the “presence”…


1) The guy's back from sailing, and this is the look you get after spending 3 nights with Jack Sparrow. 2) Nah, Edmond aka Mr. T, don't say I didn't mention you here ah! 3) I rescued the tall fella from the 641 tshirt disaster, but no, he never credit my hard work. Cis! And now you turned in a kangalulu! Wahahaha

When the lights were dimmed for the actors to come to live, I started trying so hard to hold back my tears, alas! It was in fact a difficult task. All because, Esther’s crying and shouting for help was so… real. My heart ached hearing her cry. And then Ai Vee. Urgh. Sakit hati betul!

But God’s love for us was, is, and will be the good news! The purpose of these 6 plays is to bring across the message of God’s love to the world. It was so touching, my tear duct was on full swing again +_+



1) Each and everyone of their finger prints were on the sandwhiches you ate the other night. Teehee. No wonder tasted a little too saltish hor? 2) The Spot Leishia Contest 3) Next time I wanna be the makeup artist! Mwahahaha

OK, I’m a cry baby lah, I cry at everything on the first count lah. -_- Now shattap and ogle at the pictures already!


1) Freaky Resto - here's one waiter you don't want to mess with. 2) Oi! Shtopit! Shtop spinning tum-tum-juen! You are making me dizzy! 3) Wei! I just want to give a kiss oni mah, why everyone turn away woh?!


1) Bee ah maan and join da klu! Just laika me yo Beng! 2) The spot Leishia contest part II

All pictures are taken from here and here.

Smorty and I

Some of you have been asking me about how do I get paid to blog lately. Now for those of you who are interested to blog for money, here’s another piece of (genuine) good news - Smorty.

Simple 3-steps to a fatter account: WLW:

Write your opinion about advertisers
Link them up in your article
Wait to get paid.

Can I be any clearer than this? Hehe. Well, if it’s of any assurance, I’ve been paid by Smorty for my work already earlier on. And I like their simple and friendly layout and usability. Although I must say the offers are kind of little, but then again, that’s maybe because I’m not an active member in reviewing their advertisers. So!

Anyway, if you are serious into this whole paid blogging business, do check them out! Who knows? Maybe you’ll get to quit your day job and turn full time blogging ;)



p/s mucho mucho thank you if you could just click on my links to sign up any of those services that I blog about here as (certain services’) referrals get paid too. Once you get on the ride, you may refer others to the services and you’ll get paid too! Yeah, it’s a cycle, and a happy win-win for all. So, happy earning!

Advertlets' Puttin' Da Bling In Ma Blogging

It’s up! And it’s here! Yes, I’m talking about setting up an Advertlets poll here! I kept putting this signing-up off until just 2 days ago and boy, it felt so good. Hehe. Procrastination to the fore!

Anyway, this blogger would really appreciate if you can take part in the simple, to-the-point poll. And if you are a blogger yourself, after taking that poll, do check out Advertlets.com and maybe sign up too (psst, better yet if you are a Singaporean blogger, Advertlets are giving out good moolahs for a buzz about them in your blog currently).

So run along now, and click on the little button that says “cycle thru ads” on the Advertlets ad on the sidebar. Or you can also submit your comments by clicking the other button that says “comment on this”.

Mucho tan-qyus! :)

Crossing Bridges At FRIM

We spent a day with my ex-colleagues at FRIM (Forest Research Institute of Malaysia) last Saturday. I remember the last I was there was during my form two year, for a geography project and we were collecting foliage and documenting how those plants grow, and mate procreate. Boy, how time flies!

Anyway, what meant to be a just-for-fun family day turned into a little drama, with Jason tearing his muscles from sprinting to determine one winning team out of two, and had to be carried out. The obstacles challenges were serious boot-camp crap and I’m proud to announce that I managed it!

After that, it was trekking up hill in the jungle for the one-in-a-lifetime canopy walk (which is located 30m above the ground and its 200m canopy walkway is built on tree tops)! At least that’s going to be the case for me! I will never ever walk on any hanging bridges anymore! No more! For a few seconds up there I could feel myself fainting and was about to slump to my right. Bleah. Kesian Jason limped and forced himself through the whole journey. But hey he made it!

When I got down, I could very well kiss the ground and set up a shrine with leaves and twigs and stones to commemorate my being alive!

OK, maybe I exaggerated a little. All I actually did was got down from the last leg of the walk, and started telling every stranger I met at the bottom of the tree house that the canopy walk was not meant for human beings. Run and save your own life! And you see their face all dumbstruck and agape. Hehe.

The lunch was great (huge ass prawns to say the least!) but some how I guess we were all too tired to enjoy it. It was cool, no less. Knowing that I can, in fact, achieve all these things if I put my heart and effort to it. I used to have one so called friend telling me how I will be no one had it not for her holding my hand through. And I bought that. I practically lived my life without so much of an ounce of confidence.

But now I know with God, all things are possible! For He is my strength, my grace, my support. I walked away knowing I’m renewed and secured; knowing I’m somebody in His eyes and heart!

Now having said that, I still won’t agree to walk that damn bridge anymore even if you beg! Unless… you’re talking about a Sony Vaio waiting for me at the end of the canopy walk. Nyahaha!

Book For Sale

My sister was a total sweet heart and she bought me a book (awww)!

The problem is I already have that book in my collection. And then she made me pay her -_- Siblings loving. Ahh!

So now I ended up with 2 copies of “The Bonesetter’s Daughter” by the marvellous Amy Tan and RM33.00 poorer.

I’m letting it go at RM 30.00 though the book is brand new (I didn’t even flip open the pages!).

The story is Amy Tan’s bestest work yet, and was inspired by her late mother. In it, Tan explores the intriguing mother-daughter relationship. A moving masterpiece everyone ought to read. I’m dead serious! You should read it!

So, buy my book! :D

Action!

I am back!!!!

Bet you didn’t even notice I was gone -_-

Anyway! I survived it all - boot-camp-like obstacle challenges (which was really inappropriate and uncalled for) in the forest, dizzying canopy walk, 1st (yay!) church camp, tele-match, back-up singing(!!!), skit presentation (ok, so I’m just the kay-leh-fay [extras]), really lousy-but-I’m-fat-now-from-eating-it food, a freelance project, sleep deprivation, and sun burn tans (again! Now my skins are a myriad of shades, sexy!)!!!!

I’m so back!!!!

PPP Direct - No Frills Paid Blogging

It’s here! It’s here! It’s finally here!

Erm, I think I’m a bit slow in announcing this when the whole blogging world is already riding the waves. Anywhoos!

PayPerPost has been very gung-ho in coming up with new features and offers to excite the blogosphere lately and I was in for a surprise after taking off from paid blogging for a while due to work commitments.

The most exciting of all is that they announced a PPP Direct program. In their own words,

...PPP Direct is an exciting new way for you to make money from your blog by contracting directly with advertisers. PPP Direct allows you to keep more of the money per transaction than any other services out there.


Is that cool or is that cool?! PPP is playing middlemen without being in the way! By them doing that, it actually cuts out the overhead; with competitors like ReviewMe charging 50-100% mark-up and keep up to half our money, PPP Direct only charges a 10% fee, 5% of which goes to transaction fees for PayPal and credit card processing; in the most laymen term possible - we simply earn MORE.

Advertisers can now roam and surf blogs who are hooked up to PPP Direct program, and choose their preferred reviewer to blog about their products after agreed upon a price with the said blogger.

I think this is the ultra win-win-win situation for all - advertisers get their chosen reviewer, bloggers get to make money and be paid handsomely in a secure and safe environment for their hard work, and PPP gets satisfied customers and bloggers. One big happy family! Yay! :)

So come on! If you don’t have a blog, start one already! And if you are an advertiser, check us out! You can get in touch and find out more by clicking on the buttons on the left side-bar.




And The One Who's Goin To The Movie's Is...

Warao! You people! Why your questions so holy-molly-serious-saree wann? LoL Because seriously, I was expecting hoping to see more bimbotic ones. :x uh, no matter, at least you all join hor, otherwise I need to go hide my face in the dark corner of the cinema hall already :p

Well I love you guys SOHHH much, I didn’t sleep the whole night to think up the most just way to name the winner.

And the most ingenious way I could cook up is.................... draw lot :D

I really, like, pulled out the most fragrant, prettiest paper with a little hello-kitty imprint at the corner, and cut it out to 7 nice squares and wrote your names in it and put in a bowl and I got my colleague (see! I not bias) to pick! Oh, and, and, I also Never mind.

So, OK, the winner is…................. Ling! Yay! I hope you'd enjoy your movie!

This mini contest is simply for fun, and the topic of “why” is really quite random; besides I don’t want to hog on the passes and thought I’d share some love and I guess also, one way to say hey thanks for dropping by my site! Now, lets just hope I'll have bigger baits more substantial prizes in the future for you guys.


P/S OK lah, I lied, I stayed up the whole night to watch CSI: New York on the computer lah -_-

P/S/S I really drew the lot and please don’t think I love any of you any less.

P/S/S/S Ling! So how can I pass the tickets to you?

P/S/S/S/S Frank! Thanks for being so sporting and join without *ahem*, me begging forcing asking. Hehe. Really appreciate it! :) And along the way you see alien terms like “sampat”, “lah”, “wah”, “warao”, “walau eh”, "wan", "hor", etc, etc, you need not be alarmed, all these are what we call Manglish - Malaysian English - accents/sounds/slangs/whatyouhave to stress our feelings and sentiments as we speak. We Malaysians, very expressive wan, hor people?!
