LELAKI nowadays

BooO! i got so many things want to write here. but every time i got back home it feels like my couldnt refrain my poor eyes from hanging half way like the Garfield's. i wanted to post some pictures too. but tired tired. i should sleep early now. my complexion getting worse now. because of excessive make-up, irregular sleeping hours and unhealthy food.

i came to this realization that a bad complexion could make someone lose so many opportunities. like, working opportunities. can you believe it? u might got rejected for certain jobs because there are few pimples popped on your face. girls still able to cover the imperfections with foundation and concealer. but guys? ouch!

It was this evening, i approached a bunch of ladies. to my utmost surprise, there's a guy next to a lady told me that he applied make up base with SPF everyday. i wouldnt sound surprise if the guy were a little bit pondan'ish. but he's normal. like, normal ordinary guy. LOL. a normal guy like him applies make-up base and sunblock everyday while me this ordinary girl never apply such thing on face before until i take this job? how could it be? LELAKI nowadays so AI MEI LIAO!

Lancome UV Expert

i've been avoiding to blog too much about the job i'm doing right now. because my blog will be like a lancome website if this continues. like, soon. haha. but it's really hard to avoid. i'm gonna spend a solid one month with lancome's sunblock. how could i not blogging?

ok lah. i will stop babbling about my colleagues and bosses. lets talk a little bit about the product. this job benefits me by learning more knowledge about beauty products. I work with experts like the professional product consultant, super cute make-up artist and the girls that know so much about beauty care. for those that have known me for long, they know i had this really serious breakout when i was in primary 6. my pimples were breaking all over my forehead. had really serious acne problem and i started to cleanse my face ever since then. the first cleanser my mom bought to me was Biore. because of it's cheap price.

but face didnt get any better. tryout simple and t3. but it's all in vain. but i guess the breakout was because of my imbalance hormonal changes and for the unavoidable fact that i started to have my menstrual period and growing like an ordinary teenager during that age. i never able to get rid of this major skin problem until my form 4 year. my skin miraculously recovered. turned pretty good aside from the minor pores and blackheads problem.

no sooner when i entered my degree course, enduring those sleepless nights, stressful year, unhealthy food and polluted environment, once again serious breakout occurred. it was so serious until i have to consume medicine to control the hormonal inbalance. i get pretty frustrated because of the acne breakout. it's like i lost whole lot my self-esteem. i dont even want to step out of my house without make-ups on. but too much make-ups worsen my complexion. i know my face needs a break! so, that was the day i rather stay at home than hanging out that often for the reason that i need to leave my face naked. i was a loyal user of L'oreal Whitening until i decided to shift to Clinique.

choosing the right skin care product is essential. you have to know whether your skin able to handle the amount of the chemical substances applied on your skin. i started really throwing extra care to my face when i worked for lancome. you know, it was like a slap when the product trainee told me that i have to apply more foundation to cover the scars on my face. even the make up artist lectured me of not using concealer. of these days, i know my complexion is no longer loves me like she always did.

working for lancome brings me nearer to the knowledge that applying sunblock daily after moisturizer is so crucial. Apply this little thin shield on your face by all means blocking the sunlight from damaging your skin. It also benefits us as the shield to protect us from the serious pollution in our earth nowadays. especially if you're staying at city, like selangor.

this entry meant to tell you that the SUNLIGHT nowadays could make you aged. Can you imagine you have a 30-year-old look while you are only 20? exposed to too much sunlight destroyed your skin cell slowly. like a time bomb that you will never know how serious you skin has been damaged.

SPF simply means Sun Protection Factor. If in your mindset that the higher SPF in a sunblock is better than you're wrong. Different countries have different index of SPF whereby, this is highly related to the climate of their country. for malaysia, our index is much closer to Japan. SPF 50 simply means 50 X 100mins, which equivalent to 500 minutes the sunblock can last for. well let say, if you applied SPF80 to you face, means you're protecting your skin from sunlight for like 13 hours? there is no point to shield your complexion that long if you are only exposed to the sun like 4-6 hours.

the higher SPF by all means the higher chemical substances in the sunblock. Can you imagine if one day your skin unable to take the high amount of the chemical substances? the main key leads to choose the correct sunblock is by looking at the PA. e.g: SPF 50 PA+++. choose the one with three plus (+). PA simply means the strength of the filter. a sunblock without PA+++ is only able to against pigmentation but not sun. In addition, PA means the strength and the consistency of the sunblock. Sun block doesnt completely prevent you from turning dark. it helps to reduce pigmentation, dull and ageing skin and to ensure a healthier skin tone.

So, faster get yourself a sunblock now. it is crucial to apply everyday!

p.s: do correct me if you find anything inaccurate here.

Day Off

seriously, i felt so dead. i got two days off from my work. and i decided to be an obedient girl staying at home for this two days. owh and i'm feeling super blissful to wake up on the afternoon. heee.. i dont want to. but am really exhausted from the insomnia nights. well, probably because i occupied my time all around the clock everyday. and today somehow felt strange. because i do nothing for the whole day.

staying at home make me refuse to eat. ok lah. not refuse just lazy. so just straight away starve myself. five in the afternoon already. i only drank a cup of hot chocolate and few tablespoons of ice-cream and also a bar of chocolate. all sweet and fattening food. i'll just see what will happen on my dinner time. =) dont tell me i'm thin. because i'm not. see my face? become so damn chubby already. i wonder why all the fats accumulated on my face?

i just cant wait for the month of august. i'll be going to kuantan, johor, ipoh and melaka. in a month time! =)

Lancome Day 2

first few days of working is always tiring. but i guess i'll be immune after few days. Tell you what? i'm going to purchase lancome product straight after i received my payment. heeeee.. i'll be awfully stupid if i dont get them while the make up artist reward us with 40% discount of all the products. Top 5 beauty care product in the world? go cayenne. kill your money again.

i'm kind of wondering hard. tomorrow i'll work in front of centre point, BU. just in front of my house, and few inches away from my college. please for those who knows me please dont appear at the centrepoint tomorrow. and lecturers. oh No.. dont take lunch at centre point. could really imagine the paisehness now.. but i think i should react proudly. because i'm doing lancome product! who ever can get this opportunity? just that the provided outfit is absolutely irrelevant. sia sui lancome only. why can it be something professional?

rational meh? light as feather, strong as shield. =.=. we dont have to scare of the nasty sunlight because we use lancome's sunblock. but i dont feel comfortable.

although facebook analized that i have 12-year-old maturity level, but i'm clear enough i know of how to judge people. it's been a while since i'm feeling in that way. 28 days to go lancome!

Beautiful Hues

you know, just really out of the sudden i think my life is somewhat filled with so many colours. yellow, orange, pink, red, blue, purple, green.. aww..those beautiful hues. =)

sometimes i miss colouring the colour chart with acrylics. like what i did in my early of foundation year.
life is awesome when there are people make you crack with laughter =)
and never failed to tell you that you are not alone =)
and when you know you are not alone. =)

Shopping Day

So, yesterday was the day cendy got a day off from her hectic work. And so, the desperate us decided to dump the money that we've earned by doing some shopping. haha. we both have the same feeling that all the clothes we have in our closet turned so ugly already. i wonder why girls got such troublesome thoughts. haha. there are quite few times i tried to dig so deep into my wardrobe. but the end, i still struggled so hard to pick one suitable outfit. haha. i guess this is the nature of girls. never satisfied with the clothes they have.

and so, we decided to visit sunway pyramid













dont get shock by the pictures. i dont know whats wrong. i just manage to get a purse and a shirt after the long day. No clothes really attracted me. sighh...

and ken was really good in shopping too. i rarely see boys that can shop with girls for so long. Ken is the first one. haha. we were in the mall from 2pm to 10pm. so that was like.. erm..eight hours.


and i'd tried Haagen-Dazs' Rum and Raisin. It's the best flavour so far.
well, just to let you know, i'd tried cappuccino truffles, apricot and cream, macadamia nut, Belgian chocolate and cookies and cream. and i'm going to try out more in the future! kekeke

see my blissful look? i heart ice-cream



and of course. cure our hungry stomach after the long day. nowadays, the buddies that left at BU are only Ken and Cendy. We spend so many times together. dinner mostly. It's like there will be so many more months for us to go through together. Oh. hoayphing just got back actually. Xinhui, Adeline, Zoey, CK, Krystal, Shenesse, Alvin, Amos. faster come back la..

Dinner @ Shogun


i never thought they were serious about shogun. but they were! it was a call from ken. then off i dressed up ran to his car. and there, SHOGUN. If you are wondering what is shogun, it is a restaurant serves buffet dinner in japanese style. Their choices of meal comes in lots of variety. i picked a wee bit from each dishes but still unable to try out each and every dishes there. too bad the ice-creams are from nestle. i want Haagen-Dazs Bah. Next time should really try Jogoya.

their sushi. well, frankly not so delicious. sushi king lagi sedap.

well, go to Sunway Pyramid's Shogun instead. Better there. in term of food and environment.



cendy, ken, jack and patrick.


and i didnt know why that amoi cendy took so many pictures of me. i didnt even realize she kept snapping me with her camera. more than 10 pictures loh ok


Game Over after two plates only. how useless my stomach was. but i never gave up. stuff!!!

eating too much is actually a torture. TORTURE!

of St.John and Interact Club

weird. i suddenly got an urge to visit the orphanage house. i miss a sincere thank you after doing a good deed.

when i was in St.John, people always laugh at our stupidity why do we stand under the scorching sun during the sports event. while the rest watching the competition comfortably at the grand stand or most of them will just go ponteng. we, st.johns are divided to few areas to watch over the athletes. just in case they got injured or fainted out of the sudden. when one of the athletes drop off, the stjohns and pbsms will run as fast as they could to reach the injured ones. off carry like a hero to the main camp. then the first aiders will go on with the first aid kit. massaging, spraying over the cramp legs and helping out. being a first aider was a satisfaction. of how great you are to save people.

i miss those days now. i miss being a hero! hahahhaha...if two years ago i were selected to enroll in the Matriculation, i would be in the medication field right now. just like huihwa. but afterall, i'm now already in the half way to become a designer.=)

and those days where the interactors volunteered to pay a visit to the orphanage house. that was one of the activity that i loved the most. those kids from sri stella were really cute. i miss helping them to buy new shoes for the malaysia independent day. i miss choosing suitable shoes and helped them wear on. and they'd run happily over the streets with their brand new shoes. how they hugged me and listened to my story-telling session. the kids were really adorable!

these are again another of my high school memories

i wonder,
why do i always reminiscing the past?
perhaps my past is too valuable to be forgotten
i miss being a st.john and an interact club member

Swine Flu?

heard about swine flu? sure yes right?

i dont really bother about swine flu disease. just fever, flu and cough. what so big deal about it? just take medicines and rest at home. this huge bombshell has frightened everyone in the world wide. is like everyone must quarantine themselves at home and wear that ugly mask whenever they go. but who really cares? just be cautious more. take extra care of eating habits, consume regular vitamins and do more exercises.

so, it was this ordinary day. monday. yes.. planned to visit another high school friend of mine. but she texted me a day before asking me to cancel the plan. because she suspected herself caught with swine flu. few symptoms hit her that freaked her off badly. found out that she had this abnormal body temperature and severe headache for four days and a little bit of flu. when i thought that ordinary monday i'll stay at BU, out of the sudden, again another call at the night.

wuah. me so geng. because of the call, i dashed packing all my stuff. clothes and bathing equipments. jumped into the cab. off i went to the nearest lrt station. took lrt to klsentral and finally changed to ktm to kajang. from there, i drove my friend's car all the way to sunway medical centre. Yes. i needed to drive my sick friend to the hospital.

not really that serious lah.. dont get frightened by my earlier sentences. haha. the procedure in the hospital was okay. consulted by the nurse and finally the doctor.

she's okay. but
if the fever continues for days, must do blood test to confirm whether it is a real swine flu or normal fever.



there, the nurse helping the patience to wear her mask.

and so, suddenly i got another part time job. big child's nanny

The Smell of The Toilet

great.. very great. it is a total disaster when you cant even stand long in a mall for a day. the aches and the pains killing you. refrain the pain. insist not taking the pink tablets. it is when you cant bear all these you have to escape to the toilet. sit on the toilet bowl for a couple of minute. but worse.. one of my friend told me that she slept in the toilet for an hour. and woke up by her alarm that was set an hour earlier before she threw herself to her dreamland. HOW PATHETIC!

the most disastrous thing was when your favourite ice-cream stood all day long with you but you cannot take an inch of it. because you know you'd totally become a sicko after swallowing it. disaster!

i hope tomorrow disappears. fast!

i smelt the love in the air.
but the air lethargically too thin to be reached by own's bare hand.

Transformer!


oooH. more than i realized, i never mention the good movies i've watched since like.. i dont know when. but on this moment, i'm gonna pen down my personal review about TRANSFORMER. i believe everyone at least nine out of ten of my friends already thrilled with the awesomeness of Transformer II, Revenge of the Fallen. If you havent get yourself to the cinema. DO IT NOW. i swear! It's way too cool to miss it.

i watched this movie for the second time IN THE CINEMA already. still wondering should i go for the third time? haha. that would be really an insanity to do so. i watched for the second time is not because of i dont understand my first round of the transformer. but just with the attempt, I MUST WATCH for the second time no matter what. and since ken didnt get anyone to watch with him, so why not? In my whole life, this is the second movie that i go for the second round. the first one was the Confession of the Shopaholic.

o'rite, the movie still blasted off the whole cinema. the crowd still high, the queue still long although it's already more than a week after the release date. ah yeah of course. the price still freaking RM11.00. whereas the price should drop to rm9 by now. but still, transformer maniacs willing to pay and to sit at the first row just to watch megan fox, robots and to get bombed by the way-too-cool sound system. the graphics are well done! i salute the animation and graphic designers!

i just love this movie a lot! =)

Tawau (May-June)

i havent blogged anything about my one month holidays at tawau?

well, tawau is all about food paradise. how could i miss the opportunity to eat wild!
the pictures below is bound to make you hungry. =P



About tawau. It's a little town famous for it's fresh, delightful, scrumptious and super appetizing SEAFOOD. I get to eat mommy's cook. crab and fish. but too bad i missed the meal at one of tawau's famous seafood restaurant there. Tawau's SHAO BAO stuffed with adequate pork, eggs and another yummy ingredients. The content of the bao is just somewhat something similar with the big bao i used to had when i was small. Coming through CHICKEN RICE. I tell you... until today, mongolian chicken rice is still the best among all the chicken rice i had. and something that no one dare to miss, WOH TIEK! the best fried dumpling ever! but kind of sad because i get to eat twice only. There were lots more other good food that i didnt really get to eat. will grab this opportunity when i fly back to tawau again. which will be really very soon.^^

my goodness.... am writing to tempt myself right now. T.T

yes.. and meeting up with old friends. catch up yamcha all the time.


Holidays in tawau were not about lazing in the house only. of course must sweat! XD. Went to LIM MAN KUI for a little jungle trekking. Jungle trekking? haha. ok lah. it's just walk climb slowly. It's funny tho when we actually randomly picked the roads. And also fascinating tawau city scape from the top.

ah yeah.. a little badminton at fuji.
and also jogging at pu zhao shi temple.
Met up with boss tim. It has been two years since we've met. still the same old look of him. still that crazy. XD

and meeting up with high school teachers. Wong Fui Lin my BM teacher and also Jason Chin, EST and English tutor.


i didnt really take the initiative to take more pictures like i always do. the reason is because i hate my camera! sorry la nikon. but u really annoyed me. lolz..
