我的黑毛毛: Sunday

Let me introduce to all of you! Our new baby black-banded syrian girl, Sunday! We got her unexpectedly last rainy Sunday and that is how she got her name. She's been adapting well in her new environment. Totally tamed and toilet trained. So right now we have two hamsters!

Before i end this ultra short post, here is a picture of her sleeping in my palm. I will keep you updated on her status every now and then.

Good Night all!

2nd box of 我的美丽日记 My Beauty Diary masks!

(This is not an advertorial)


Photo taken from My Beauty Diary SG Facebook page

Still remember the all in one box 我的美丽日记 My Beauty Diary masks with the anniversary designs that I've brought back from Taiwan and blogged about? Blog post HERE!

One good news to myself and all My Beauty Diary masks lovers! You can finally get it in Singapore! Comes with 2 different sets, the 2013 All-In-One Gift set and the 10th Anniversary Gift set!

I happily purchased the 10th Anniversary Limited Edition set last night as i am left with only 6 pieces from the "All in one" set which i got in Taiwan previously. But unlike the previous box, this entire box comes in super cute designs by Taipei's '0416x1024! It also says the masks provides solutions for dryness, acne, large pores and wrinkles, with complimentary of their NEWEST masks Imperial Bird Nest and Coix Seed (which i am not so sure if the entire box of either one is available in Singapore yet). 

I have tried the Coix Seed masks from the previous box i got in Taiwan. It really brightens up the skin after application and the the mask smells like barley! Haha! Yet to try the imperial bird nest one though. Cant wait! Guess after all these, the next I'm gonna purchase will be their Royal Jelly Masks! :D

One more thing before i end this post. I am aware that there are fake Beauty Diary masks going around in the market. 

After the incident which i bought my first box of FAKE My Beauty Diary masks at *Scape FLEA market (cost me S$10), i always purchase mine from local stores like Wastons or Guardian. There's also blogs and reviews online to teach you how to differentiate between the authentic and fake ones. So beware okay!

Have a wonderful Sunday all! Need to order mac for my banana pie now! BYE!

Post-Taiwan trip + Batam Day trip

Have you all read about my Taiwan trip yet? If not, the links are all here:

Read the previous Taiwan Trip post here:  ( Day 1 / Day 2 - Part One / Two / Day 3 - Part One / Two / Day 4 )

Time flies, it has been 3 weeks since I came back from that trip. Wondering when will be my next overseas trip. Anyway, i received the photo from Facebook that our Taiwan friend cum tour guide, Jimmy, posted. Was taken before we board the plane.



This photo was a last minute thing and was taken by someone's mobile phone. Although the photo's not very sharp but well, this will be a photo filled with fun and memories for me, at least.
Another thing, i was telling you girls about the post card that i posted out from Taiwan, or did i not? Here's my wishes to myself and pardon the magazine. Haha!



Oh and my first Batam trip...

Vin randomly decided that we should head to Batam for A&W, also the fact that i have not been there yet, so we booked our 12pm slot ferry tickets online at 2am!

That morning, we woke up very early and headed Vivo City to run some errands and breakfast at Harbourfront Centre's Wang Cafe before we board the ferry. I do not know if i will have motion sickness as bad as the one i had on the flight to Taiwan, to play safe, i purchased med from local pharmacy.

Now i know why i slept so much on the journey back from Taiwan! All motion sickness med causes drowsiness! I was rather tired from waking up so early, plus the med, i was very sleepy by the time i boarded the ferry. One photo before i doze off!



Heard many stories of girls going crazy shopping at Batam. So naturally i presumed the shopping malls there are like Malaysia's KSL City Mall or Taiwan's 新光三越 Shin Kong Mitsukoshi or even Singapore's 313 or Nex. 

But i was wrong! Perhaps, we went to the wrong malls. I was quite disappointed that i got nothing from that 2 hours of "shopping". Vin saw that i was pouting so he brought me to Nagoya Hill Shopping mall's A&W for my long awaited waffles and curly fries. Guess what! NO MORE WAFFLES AND NO MORE CURLY FRIES?! I ended up with just a mug of rootbeer float. After our drinks we decided to head back to Mega Mall for J.Co and that ended our one day trip.

Somehow i wonder what happened to the seafood dinner, go-kart, kueh lapis factory so on and so forth... Haha! I will have go back again! I am so hungry while i am typing all these.. Time for lunch now! LOLOL! BYE!

Taipei, Taiwan Trip Day 4 (Last day!)

Read the previous Taiwan Trip post here:  ( Day 1 / Day 2 - Part One / Two / Day 3 - Part One / Two )

Finally i am at the last part of my first Taiwan trip. I would hope to go again some other day. 

Well what took me so long to post this was because i went on a Batam trip earlier this week and also i got my Nintendo 3DS XL with the Pokemon X cartridge about two days ago and have not stop playing since. Plus recently I've started watching Running Man like many of you out there. My free time was mostly occupied with all these entertainments but i promise will blog about my short Batam trip soon!

We packed and checked out of our Vista hotel at around 11am and headed to 伍角船板 Five Dime Restaurant for lunch before the coach sent us to Taoyuan Airport. This was a very unique restaurant. Was very awed by it's artistic design.



Departure to Taoyuan International Airport..
We waited at the airport for 4 hours before we were able to check in. Yea i know 4 hours we can do more shopping but according to the guide, we are not allowed to leave the group. There goes our last few hours in Taiwan.

On our return flight, we had 卤肉饭 and really yummy fried bee hoon. Because i took med for motion sickness this time round (which i purchased it from a drug store at RaoHe Night Market), i managed to finish up everything and slept my way home.


GOODBYE TAIWAN! We will meet again soon!
