Are you married, too?

Today was my 1st day @ work and no, it was neither pupillage or attachment. At approximately 10.30am, another new girl approached me.

New Girl: Are you a student?

Me: No la, I am a fresh grad.

New Girl: Okie.. I'm engaged and I'm currently living with my hubbie. Are you married, too?

Me: ............... ..................... .............. ................ Ofcoz not, I am still young! (Promptly regretted after saying this due to you-noe-why. Do I look like I am married?????? wtf)

New Girl: But, you do have a bf right?

Me: No bf. That's why I am not married!

New Girl: Why not?

Me: ...... ...... ..... Can't find any

New Girl: How come? You should work hard to find one la!

Me: ...............................................................................................................................

PJ Short Stay Serviced Apartment

I 1st came across the word "migration" in Geography when I was in Form 3. Recently, I have observed it myself through many course-mates of mine. Various factors such as lack of learning opportunity and grossly underpaid have persuaded many to move to Petaling Jaya to pursue their pupillage. As I said, majority of them aren't locals. Hence, some have gone through the hardships of having to rent a place for a short stay while undergoing job interviews.

A short rental in PJ is all they need. One of which is at the Kelana Parkview Serviced Apartment. With an affordable daily rental of RM100 (with RM100 deposit), it is most suitable for those (up to maximum 6 guests) who intend to stay for at least 1 night and above.

This is the right place for those who opt for a 5-star experience as there are 3 fully furnished rooms which come with beds, bathroom, wardrobes, a set of sofa, desk, tv, cooking facilities, washing machine, internet, swimming pools and parking spaces. Just so many are complaining about how hot it has been recently, two of the larger rooms are air-conditioned!

Also, this is the place for those who enjoy utmost convenience as Kelana Jaya LRT Station is just a stone's throw away, reachable by taking the T624 Rapid Bus which stops exactly outside the apartment. Nearby amenities include Mc Donald's, an Old Town restaurant, stadium and Giant hypermarket.

As perfect as it is as a short stay apartment, one has to check its availability as some might be quicker than the others to book themselves a cozy shelter in the heart of Malaysia.

So, what else could you ask for?

Overestimation

Unlike Koyuki and Cate Blanchette, maintaining my skin in moderate condition has always been an effort for me. A TOUGH effort in fact. So today I have decided to further pampering my skin - by making the ever popular oriental White Fungus dessert :-)

Trust me, getting those ingredients was not as easy as I thought.
I had to rush for two different venues to complete the list. And o ya, I overestimated the amount of ingredients.

The Beauty Essence:
One (1) bunch of White Fungus
Six (6) Red Dates
One (1) pear
One (1) sweet potato
Two (2) medium cubes of rock sugar

All it took was 1 hour and voila!

The Magic Portion:


The Tease:
Mom thought it was excessively sweet. And so did I. >.<
It's time to sharpen my cooking skills!
Anyway, I might add pandan leaves & longan the next time I cook it

Review: Bio-essence Tri-action Aqua Boost

I am neither a fan of Linda Chung nor the brand user (In fact, I sorta despised it .. ) Anyway, I somehow managed to grab a sample pack of Bio-essence Tri-action Aqua Boost and now, I despise Bio-essence no more =)

Despite the itchiness on both sides of my face solely caused by the mask which woke me up in the wee hours of morning, this sleeping mask has managed to do wonders on my sensitive skin (Os'lee y'd better watch out!). My Saturday morning was greeted by a truly bright skin, fully-hydrated and glowing like no other time and it lasts throughout the day (right until current moment!) Of cause, there's no new zit as an outcome of using this mask.

One shortcoming - the scent. It was very artificial albeit nice.
And the scent didn't help me to go straight into dreamland.

And the sample pack was also way too tiny!! I could have shared it with someone if it comes with bigger portion and who knows, Bio-essence might even gain a new customer due to this!

So, I still sounded a bit prejudice huh?

Review: O'slee Roseship Peeling Gel

Saying is that people with sensitive skin shouldn't use scrubs or peeling gel, in prevention of further irritation of the already-sensitive skin. I, for one, opine that this view is of total absurdity. As a matter of fact, occasional usage improves my skin condition and reduces its sensitivity. Perhaps, my sensitive skin works best with O'slee Roseship Peeling Gel.

The way I took the pic looks familiar huh? O rite, I imitated this course mate S of mine XD
Dead-skin removal price: Rm49.90 @ Guardian

My Love:

Just like all other Os'lee products, I am deeply in love with the faint roseship scent.(J'adore j'adore j'adore!)

My Journey:
Though not seeing eye to eye with the above saying, I'm also taking extra precaution by using the peeling gel once every 2 weeks on T-zone & my nose + once every month on my entire face., prior using a mask. It has never failed to get rid of the blackheads on my nose + a thin layer of dead-skin (or more PROFESSIONALLY - my cuticles >.<). And instantly, my skin turns brighter. And and and there's no new pop-outs on the next day!!! =)

Its gel-like texture coupled with the scent of peace and joy!

My choice:

Since I don't enjoy changing skincare from time to time, I would seriously consider a repurchase when it runs out. [It won't for another few months at least as only minimal quantity is needed to satisfy my needs =)]

Gay Pride Rally

Today has marked the final Jurisprudence class of my life. It has always been the lecturer 's habit of quoting gay marriages in the UK as an example of hundreds of thousands of legal theories. Everytime he mentioned about how the homosexuals demonstrate publicly in the street, these vivid scene would pop out of no where....

Yeah right, I happened to be in London on 3 July 2010 and was awed by their stunning outfits! It was the 40th Anniversary of Gay Liberation in UK..

At first, I thought it was apocalypse. LOL (I had slipped my mind on the existence of this glorious event then)

So, it turned out to be a parade. Even gay is liberalized, the Brits were still demanding for a change of better law.. And that was the purest reason why I chose to read law... (Mind y'all, I ain't a gay in whatsoever aspect!)

And now I kinda agree that studying law in UK does have its perks!

Penang Property Reviews

On the verge of becoming a working adult, I realized that conversation between me n my peeps is no longer surrounding A from SXI has a crush on B our classmate, or C has betrayed D. We now talk about profound issues, we now talk about PROPERTY. Penang Property to be actual.

Thanks to UUM, I learned that goods depreciate. Thanks to newspapers, I learned that property does not depreciate, especially so in Georgetown. Thanks to Microeconomics , I learned that property in Penang is getting expensive due to scarcity of land. And thanks to PropWall Penang, I learned about my dream house.

As organized as it is, this Malaysian property webbie allows prospective customers (or even passerby like me) to look for property in accordance with our location,categorical or alphabetical preferences and most-wanted properties on the site.It is so well-designed that people could enjoy browsing each and every property without feeling tensed.

.

So, my dream house is situated in Moonlight Bay, Batu Feringgi. Smashing, isn't it?

Upon clicking the link of palace of my dream, I was further shocked by the meticulous and detailed description of this property e.g. it's developed by Ivory Properties Group and it is a freehold property, as well as the facilities attached e.g. house lift & hill top landscape garden. The killer factor of this webbie would be the honest analysis done on my dream house.

While indulging in every little details of my dream house, I discovered that some similar properties are displayed on the side bar, which is definitely a convenience for serious house buyers. For those who seek for good deals, they just need to enter their e-mail and the next thing they know would be owning a house in the Pearl of Orient. This webbie even owns a Facebook account so that passerby like me can be kept updated (as I'd be a buyer someday =>)

Just a reminder to myself, a dream house would not always be a dream.

Ada Tulis Nama ke?

Hit by an abrupt durian crave, I went to Gajah Jatuh town to satisfy my desire. Upon boarding the bus to return to my hostel, I saw an empty seat and walked swiftly towards it. While I was adjusting my skirt after sitting down .....

Another Undergraduate of 3rd-class mentality: Cik, sini ada orang duduk la! (She was keeping the place for her friend)

Me: Ya ke? Ada tulis nama ke? (I looked around searching for the name..lol)

Another Undergraduate of 3-rd class mentality: Erm... tak de la.. Kau duduk depan je la (While pointing to the almost-filled-up seats at the front)

Me: .................. (WTF!!!!!!!!)

I'm in Malaysia Book of Records, don play play^^

Tataz to carefree March and hello frantic April! Despite my theoretically-stuffed-agenda, I managed to slot in UUM Ponggal Fest on this morning =) [okay la, I sort of backed up last nite. But, I don't make empty promises!!]

My tender-age roomie+me in Punjabi-suit+stunning Veron

My fantasies about Ponggal Fest:
A long list of Hindu rituals dominated by fellow Indians coupled with several traditional performances.

The Reality-checks:
1) Hindu Rituals

There was.

Hazy Tapak Ekspo

But was cut to the minimal. The only ritual we did was cooking some mixture of sweet rice with raisins, i.e. Pongal, (kind of reminds me of Nando's) in a brand new ceramic pot using milk until they were boiled over. ON FIREWOOD not gas stove! And it's a way to praise the God (stand to be corrected). And for someone who yet to know how to cook, I truly enjoyed the ride to make fire & looking for ways to get the Pongal boiled over! The keywords were PATIENCE & HEAT!

Ponggal Ponggal!

2) Dominated by Fellow Indians
Indeed it is. But rest assured, Chinese was abundant. Some Malays were spotted too (And I'm sure they are not less religious). The 1Malaysia spirit was certainly there!

3) Traditional Performances
J'adore! But sadly I didn't see any during my presence there.

4) Hannah
We had our 1st hannahs as well! We were told that this is usually done on the bride during Indian Wedding Feast and it can last for 1 week!

They r super duper chun! Feel like showing off to the whole world.
(Damn, I looked fat...or I am fat?)

Ponggal Fest Aftermath: (i like the word "aftermath" alot!)

No remorse spending my entire morning under the sizzling hot sun. Greatest appreciation to Veron for bringing me along (though she's the one who BENEFITED the best...hehehe)and Shalini for helping me with the suit! And most important of all, my name is now on the Malaysia Book of Records!! (cooking the most Ponggal in Malaysia i guess) All the sweats r worthwhile and I think I'm now eligible to take part in the next season Survivor Show!

Alto 1.0

It's been pouring since the morning and I'm lovinggg the weather! <3 <3 I know I should be freelancing rite now (2 articles to rush) but I can no longer suppress my lust for Suzuki Alto!! It's rather economical & environmental friendly!

Paradise Blue Pearl is super duper adorable!

Is this a Desert Brown? Out!


No-no for Artic White! it looks too much like my frens' myvis

i heart Rose Pearl the most!

Too bad punggung besar, how ar? lol
