Diva Darling December Giveaways!

Image
It's December - I call this month the month of giving. The month of giveaways AND the month of receiving too. hehe. I have always been an online shopper. The reason for it is being 1.I don't have the time to go out to shop at the mall. 2. There are more interesting things out there in the internet your eyes can see. One of the many sites that i usually go when i shop online is Diva Darling . Diva Darling blog boutique is having their fantastic giveaways and it is called the December Giveaway! What they're giving out are: Limited Edition Estee Lauder Pure Lip Gloss Set Limited Edition Bobbi Brown Crystal Eye Palette Crabtree & Evelyn Lavender Duo Gift Set If i were to choose which giveaway to give myself, i would choose the Lip Gloss Set just because recently, i have become a big fan of lipglosses. I am currecntly using Christian Dior's lipgloss. You can either put it over your lipstick to make it look more appealing or just the lipgloss itself.

Hand Phone Organizer! I saw this on Facebook (yea, facebook has become a market place!) and i want one!! I'm gonna get myself this red one. I like striking colors. This is how it is in the inside. I choose this two handphone compartment (You can choose a two or three compartment organizer) because I have 2 handphones hehe. This is all i need to bring everything (money, cards, handphones) with me. As of right now, everything is in my bag. Somewhere inside. When my phone rings, i'll be digging my bag for the phone hahaha. The same goes with my keys and my purse. ;-P So you see, i really really need this. Oh, and by the way i'll be going to Labuan again this Thursday and Friday for outstation duties - the last one of the year! I like going to Labuan but the downside to this coming trip is that, i'm broke! *sigh* I.Need.Money!

Gentlemen Don't.

I recorded this morning at 2a.m. If you don't know, this is actually an original song of Gabe Bondoc. Still have no idea who Mr. Bondoc is? Click here . You'll be blown away by his talent. I wasn't that sleepy yet so i killed time by doing some recording. I changed some of the lyrics to suit a girl singing it. I hope you guys like it!

Sunday Baking.

Image
Last sunday MJK came over to have dinner with the family. Mom cooked vegetable, fish and soup. I didn't really felt good having him come over to eat my mom's cooking. So what I did was bake :) Since it was a last minute kind of thing, i made the simplest thing I know - APPLE PIE. I made 15 apple pies! distributed to my sister's family, kept 7 to ourselves and packed 4 for MJK to bring home later. You can't bake apple pie without apples. This is instant apple mix. I bought the one ready in a can hehe.. I main buyuk this time :P The pastry ready to go into the oven. The pies half cook. After 18 - 20 minutes in the oven.. . . . . . Tada!! But it doesn't look good as it taste because my filling was too much haha.. It exploded while it was cooking :D Next baking experiment will be Cheesecake!

You Don't Know

My Idol, Miss Regine Velasquez is gonna release her new album soon. I just heard a snippet of the song, "You Don't Know" and i like it! Can't wait for the whole album!! :)

My Christmas Gift

Image
I was thinking of what to get myself for Christmas this year and i was thinking maybe something gadgety, say like a phone? :) Since Blackberry has come out with it's new Blackberry Bold 9780 i was thinking of getting one and join the Blackberry wagon! It was actually between iPhone and Blackberry but since most of my friends are using Blackberry, it would be more convenient to get one. We could BBM all day hehe. Somemore, i don't really fancy touchscreens. I've tried touchscreen with my sonyericsson and what i realize is, i am more of a qwerty handset person. I am using Nokia E63 and it serves me well but that's just it - Twitter and Facebook is not at the tip of my fingers. I mean, the applications are there (downloaded!) but still, the feeling's not the same. So i'm gonna get it.

I'm A Fan of FM!! Are You??

Image
FAR EAST MOVEMENT!! (Or FM in short) OMG! I can't believe i only heard about this group! They are so next level awesome! Thanks to their "Like A G6" song that is constantly being played all over. The song was stuck in my head. Anyways, i have two of their albums Animal and Free Wired in my possesion :) It's gonna be played again and again, that i can assure you that. If you like fast catchy songs like me.. I recommend you to listen to FM. You won't regret it. I just came back from SMC not because i went to get treatment for my red eye, but because i was accompanying MJK for hi eye review. He also have red eye but it is more serious than mine. But it is getting better now, thank God for that. I'm skipping gym this evening because of my red eye. Gym usually will be packed at this hour so i decided to go tomorrow morning where there are less people there. Monday is ending. Hurray for that! =)

The Busy Weeks.

Image
It's been very busy for us at work. Lots of things were happening.. hence, the lack of updates. We had the MQA thingy going on with our department, sending practical students to their respective places of practical (me, at Labuan) and then we had the MASISWA annual sports meet. But after all that... It's time to party!! What a relief it felt after everything has passed. Here are some of the pictures of the passed weeks. A small farewell party for Polli (the one poking her nose) with a bunch of close colleagues An appreciation lunch given to the committee members of the MASISWA sports carnival. We were the host this year :) (Memel, Dedel & April) Preparation of the MASISWA sport. This was taken at Kasih Sayang Resort at Kokol. Taken by MJK. Everything is back to normal now. I'm gonna post regularly from today onwards! It's friday everyone, Have a nice weekend!!

Buried.

I just saw this movie last saturday with MJK. My admiration towards Ryan Reynolds work as an actor is up to a whole new level. His performance was awesome. But what i didnt get was, why on earth did a happy song came up when the movie ended? it wasn't a happy ending. LOL!

My sister finally gave birth on the 14th of October 2010. Introducing the new clan of the family: Joshua Jaden. (2 weeks old) Ain't he adorable? :)

The penguin shines across the loving hydrogen.

Yes. After all the years of blogging i have finally given in to making money through blogging. It's not that i don't have any source of income i just want to try out new things. If i can make some money through this then good. But if i don't it's still ok because i don't intend to make this as my main source of income. The Penguins Shine Across The Loving Hydrogen ..and i want to shine like them. haha does that make any sense to you? :) It's the middle of the week! Yeayy!

Lusciously Pink.

Image
Yesterday was rather an interesting day for me. I was called downstairs to the reception area because someone wants to meet me. I was puzzled. Who on earth wants to meet me? at 4.00pm? So i went down and a lady was waiting for me and handed me a paperbag that has chocolates and perfume. Not just any perfume, it was Luscious Pink by Mariah Carey!! OMG! I have been looking (and wanting) that perfume! The lady said it was from a friend of mine, MK. MK, if you're reading this thank very very very much. :) Because i was kind of hungry that time, the chocolates were gone in less than 30 minutes hahaha. My Luscious Pink ;) And it's EDP (Eu de Parfum) Mariah's signature butterfly mark. I love my new scent. I have been wanting to get a new perfume this week but i guess i'll be saving some $$ :) If you were wondering what scent i was wearing before Luscious Pink it was Paco Rabanne's Black Xs, CK One Summer, and Elizabeth Arden's Green Tea. Yea, all of them are at their l

101010 Baby

Image
My sister is due to give birth today, 101010. I really hope she does because then, the baby can really be called Baby Ben10 since she's pregnant with a boy this time. My nieces are already referring to the baby as baby ben10 so it would be really cool if she does give birth on this day! I can't wait to see my 1st nephew! baby Ben10 hahahaha

Galactica Nite

Image
Last weekend, i was in KL for the company's annual dinner. The theme was GALACTICA NITE. Alot of people dressed up according to the theme but there were alot of people who also dressed up not according to the theme, including me! :D We arrived on friday and to be honest it was quite a rush. We reached our hotel at about 4pm and had to leave before 5pm (OMG!!) I planned to maybe get cleaned up first before dress and make-up but there was no time to waste. So as soon me and my roommates reached the room we laid everything out - makeup, dress, shoes. But we managed to get out of the room in less than 45minutes. AMAZING! My face, no make-up yet but hair all set to party! haha.. This was taken in the plane. 11-ish a.m The roomies getting ready. Mirror was small and there were 4 girls in the room. They should have had a bigger mirror. Ta-da! me all ready. Don't mind those wet spots on my dress. They were from the sink.. the water from the faucet suddenly went crazy when i accidently

1st Attempt M-Blogging

I'm at the exam room, invigilating exam. Urgh. I just hate invigilating. The worst thing is, the exam is 2 hours and 30 minutes long (8.30 - 11.00) and right after this, i have class at 11 freakin' a.m. *sigh* i know i shouldn't be complaining because it's my job and i should be doing it proud AND happy ALL THE TIME.. Not just sometimes, right? Oh, i haven't blogged yet about my weekend trip to KL last weekend. I'll blog about it today. Later when i've finish conducting my 11am class. I'm actually blogging on my phone. Just testing if this goes through on my 1st attempt on mobile blogging!

photo courtesy of ghdhairdresseuk.com I'm gonna get this in 10-15 days! Can't wait.. can't wait. Thanks to Donna who gave me the link to the website! It is kind of pricey for a hair straightener but i heard so much good reviews about it. It cost me RM175 (including shipment) but i really want it so, i'll just make it as a present for myself this month hehe. I'll show it off to you guys when it's finally in my possession! Have a good day (or, good hair day) you all!!

Visited By A (Local) Celebrity.

Image
Yesterday morning someone came to our office and it was a big surprise to us all. Who you ask? It was non other than Adam AF. At first all of us were like, "why is he here?" "what's his business doing here? he wants to enroll kah?" Well actually it turns out he happens to be the nephew of one of our work mate. That work mate of ours brought him to the college to meet his students. For what, i have no idea but everyone (students and staffs) took advantage of his presence there. Everyone wanted to take pictures with him. I am not a fan of him but he is a celebrity and it's not everyday a celebrity comes to the college. Okay, my boobs look extraodinary bigger in this picture. It looks like a G cup LOL! Honestly it's not that big. Maybe it's because of the turtle neck blouse and the color: bright pink!

I've Never Felt This Way About Loving.

So i said in my previous entry that i will be making my own rendition of Brian McKnight's song. I did some recording last night and here it is! But it's a little bit short though because i used Alicia Key's version. This is my first recording in months and i have just recovered from a really nasty flu that i had for almost a month. Feel free to comment. I'd like to know what you all think of it.

Never Felt This Way.

I have always loved this song. I've even made my own version of this son but i used Alicia Key's track because it's shorter hehehe but i've deleted in in my youtube channel. I'm planning to do a new one. Will post it when it's finally recorded.

Craving For Cakes

Image
I have been exercising (everyday since monday night) and taken extra care of what i eat and now i am craving for these. Those who know me well know i have a soft spot for cakes. I know i can go out and buy a slice (or two) of devil's food but i'm restraining myself from doing so. My friends have even given me chocolates but i kept it away in my "chocolatebox" that i have on my table. I won't be looking at those stuff until i lose some weight! Yes. That's how determined i am :)

1st Ever Bridal House Tour.

Image
Selamat Hari Raya to everyone celebrating this joyous celebration! I've had my 1st session of Beraya this year at my boss' house on the 1st day of Raya. I have nothing to complain, the food was scrumptious, the company was great. Most of my colleagues were there.. I really enjoyed myself since this is the first time i went out Beraya with my colleagues. Anyhoo, after the eating session me and a few colleagues decided that the day was too early to go home so we went to the beach at Tanjung Aru. We went to this place called, Tanjung Aru Bridal House. It was kind of unique. Unique in a sense where the building itself appear to be old fashioned, which i like. It is still old fashioned looking inside and i even told my friend that this is how i'm going to have my house built one day. I like things with an old fashioned touch to it. I guess i'm just one of those vintage people. I even own a few vintage dresses. Ok, enough talk. Here are some pictures of that day. I didn't

Bad Hair Day

Image
Me and my friends went to KK on wednesday for lunch and the jam was crazy! why do people do their last minute shopping every year? It's the same thing every year for every occasion: Hari Raya, Christmas, Chinese New Year.. I promise i won't be one of those people shopping at the very last minute this year! Anyway, back to the story.. So we were at KK for lunch and since there were no parking available nearby the restaurant at Gaya Street, we ended up parking at KK Plaza and we walked ourselves to Gaya Street. We even had to park at the rooftop of KK Plaza! I wanted to take a decent picture of myself (camwhore style) but failed! the weather did not permit me to do so. These rare photos of me sporting chinky chinky eyes! Chinky Chinky Chinky. That day, wasn't my best day in photographs.

Battles To Conquer

I just had a heated argument with my mom just now about exercising when you're menstruating. I told her it's perfectly okay but she went on and on and on about giving myself a break because i'm having my period and everything. I even lied to her saying my period is ending already but the truth is, it's still kind of heavy, the flow. Ok, so why am i ranting about this? on a weekend? heck, i don't even blog that often on weekends! Well, it all started when me and my family went to our relative's house for raya this afternoon and while i was eating lemangs with the sambal kacang, that jerk told me how much i gained. If anyone should know if i've gained or not it should be me. It's my body i know better. He kept going on and on and on about me and my weight infront of everyone. So imagine how embarrassed i was there with my plate full of lemangs and sambal kacang. Lastly i said "It's ok, as long as i'm happy" and walked away. The truth is,

Scars.

Image
Look at my leg, filled with scars. Most of the scars were from mosquitoes and from the grass. Yes, grass. They're like paper cuts but only it's from grass. It has been very itchy and i have been scratching until it bleeds. Some say, it's itchy because the skin is mending itself back together. It's a good thing it's itchy, right? the only thing is i can't hold myself from scratching it. I have put ointment on it (the cuts from grass) and Mopiko on the mosquito bites. There was a lot of mossies last month.. and i guess i'm their favourite victim :-/ It was horrible to wear skirts to work, i was so embarrassed because there were swelling red bite marks on my leg but since i don't have that much work pants, and baju kurungs.. i had to wear skirt to work. But Good news, it's healing.. the red, swelling marks are all gone but there's still marks of it. I haven't healed 100%. Oh, by the way the picture was taken after a session of working out. I wa

We LOVE Sabah, No Matter What You Say.

Image
I was going to make a post of the Biggest Loser challenge at the office but it all changed when i saw how big the topic of a guy with the name Luca Lucas condemning Sabah on Facebook. One click led to another, i reached a facebook page called 'KAMI BENCI LUCA LUCAS KERANA MENGUTUK NEGERI SABAH' (TRANSLATION: we hate Luca Lucas for condemning Sabah) This is what i first saw last week but i didn't really gave much attention to it. I thought, ahh this guy just wants fame, this will go out in no time. Today, i was sent a link again. This time to this one: Is he an idiot or what? he dare say Sabahan doesn't use standard BM? Excuuuuuuuse me. We Sabahans say the most proper BM. Let's go back in time. Waaaaaaayyy back when we were in Standard 1. Did the teacher said S-A = SA, Y-A = YA.. SAYA or S-A = SA, Y-A = YE.. SAYE? Who is using the standard BM here? If SAYA is supposed to be pronounced as SAYE, im sure we all (Sabahans) would've known and be speaking Saye inst
