    He Look Into Her Eyes & She Nodded

    2.21.2012

    finally my dream is coming true after 12 years
    (my ring don't sparkle here! sobs)

    This is a long overdue post! but I'm still going to write about the day my bf finally came out of his shell and gave me his heart. Oh well, half of his shell? coz he was too shy (or say very well versed in legal mumbo jumbo) to ask the question. After all his family business is everything about the law, one would think twice about verbally promising something right? Here's my valentine story, after nearly 12 years of waiting.


    how it happened on Valentine's Day

    I went home late after dinner at One Utama with my bff and bf. Call it a threesome if you want but nothing happened besides our tummy getting pregnant with Vietnamese food. Everyone had gifts and flowers from their boyfriends, it was almost to a boiling green point for me. Coming out of the bathroom, expecting nothing less than yet another boring Valentine's Day with my bf of 12 years who doesn't believe in Valentine's Day or Christmas or any festivities connected to commercial shopping escapes. I sighed and open the door, only to be blocked by that man.

    "What do you want? I need to work right now." I said coldly, acting like I owned a business.

    He continue to block my way. I was shocked and annoyed at the same time, thinking what is wrong with him? I gotta work!. Slowly he walked right in and stood right in front of me. I can almost feel his breath. Something is wrong here. 
    Suddenly he held my hand up gently but slowly, then I saw a tiny red box. My eyes fixated at the tiny red box, unable to move away. My heart skipped a beat and the world seems to be on a standstill. 
    He opened the tiny red box and a diamond ring stood perfectly still, shining at me.

    I panic! like how the cat sees it's prey from far. What do I do now? a sense of fear came upon me. What happens if the ring can't fit? Is he going to ask the question? Omg where are we now?!

    He took my hand and slipped the ring on my finger (omg it fits! did the guy measure my finger while I was fast asleep at night?). I waited for him to pop the question but instead of the question, he warned me not to lose the diamond ring knowing down right I'm a careless bum. A 0.65 carat, high clarity, brilliant cut solitaire diamond ring he said while looking lovingly into my eyes.
    Never mind the question, my heart is already his.

    Buddy Vs The Killer, KL Hilton Charity Dinner

     invited to a musical gala

    As I was sipping my champagne today, I remembered that one night in KL Hilton where I had great wine paired with great food amongst wonderful people. It was 12th May, 2011. The show was Buddy vs The Killer, presented by Kuala Lumpur & British Theatre Playhouse. That night was a Yayasan Tunku Naquiyuddin, Stop Dengue Mission Charity Dinner. We were invited by The Body Shop to support the cause, alongside I met and talked to Red Mummy! (awesome). That night I also remembered some lucky guy who won an iPad 2 for the lucky draw.

    let's rock and roll tonight!

    Buddy Holly hit songs

    ‘Buddy vs The Killer’ tells the story and lives of Buddy Holly and Jerry Lee Lewis. The musical features Buddy Holly hit songs such as ‘That’ll Be The Day’, ‘Oh Boy’, ‘It’s Raining In My Heart’, ‘Maybe Baby’ and ‘Peggy Sue’ and then a riotous contrast with Jerry Lee Lewis’ ‘Whole Lotta Shakin Going On’, ‘High School Confidential’, ‘Down By The Riverside’ and ‘Great Balls of Fire’. Other songs in the show include ‘Chantilly Lace’ by the Big Bopper, ‘La Bamba’ by Ritchie Valens and Johnny Cash’s ‘Ring of Fire’.

    The Body Shop Limited Edition Papaya Shower Gel!

    2.15.2012

    The Limited Edition Papaya Shower Gel is back!

     Papaya-zzi yourselves today!

    this morning I showered with...

    Being a fan of shower gels, I mean who can get enough of them right? we buy at least one shower gel a month to try! (or is it just me?). My shower room is full of 'em. Whether it be the scent, the packaging, my favorite fruit or brand, I just don't stop at hello. Just to share, one of my favorite hogging place to try out shower gels is at The Body Shop. Don't blame me here. They have so many varieties of scents there from strawberries to satsuma BUT once a while limited edition shower gels comes back. Like for Christmas, you'll see Cranberry and then now PAPAYA is back!


    have you tried the Papaya yet?

    Honestly this is my first time trying Papaya shower gel as I don't always get the chance to see it around. I'm not particularly a big fan of Papaya too, but when I flip up the cap the scent of Papayas surrounded me! One would think Papaya has an overbearing smell, but surprisingly enough The Body Shop's Papaya Shower gel smells sweet and juicy! like honeydew papaya (just my opinion). U guys should smell the scent and tell me what you think!

    clear hint of orange colored liquid 

    gets foamy when mix with water

    It gets' real foamy when I lather with water (it's great for bubble baths!). The scent of Papayas surrounds me while I shower - very refreshing! but the scent is faint after the shower. Moisturizing, soap free and 100% vegetarian. You can purchase the Limited Edition Papaya Shower Gel 250ml for RM22 at The Body Shop or for a limited time only, get your hands on them from LivingSocial.com.my website for 40% off!


    Scent: Strong upon use - natural Papaya smell
    Color: clear orange liquid
    Texture: gelish liquid, foamy when lather up
    Packaging: securely cap bottle, great for travel
    Price: 250ml for RM22

    My Verdict: Will definitely get Papaya again when it's around! I'm thinking of slicing up some, smashing them into pulps and adding them to my long bath with Papaya Shower Gel. Of course I'll keep some for my face too, it's going to be anti-oxidant rich!

    Cute Delectable Cupcake Trinkets

    2.12.2012

    it comes with curvature chocolate buttons inside!

    I bought 4 coupons from Delectable By Su's promotion with LivingSocial.com.my today. It's Su's idea to have her cute cupcake trinkets packaged and ribbon with two of her yummy chocolate truffles pops! Just the thought of owning one, no wait four of all her designs and getting those yummy chocolate truffles are killing me. Her delectable cupcakes was really popular with cute fondant characters like Gus, Jo, Lulu, and Teddy. Now they are immortalized on the cutest cupcake trinket box I have ever seen.


    If you are a Delectable Fan like me who can't keep her mind off her cute cupcake trinkets then get them while it's hot! This delectable promotion is RM33, you get a cupcake trinket (choose 1 from 4 characters) and you also get to choose the chocolates inside! (strawberry, white lime, dark or milk chocolate) and two earl grey chocolate truffle pops.

    Your girlfriends will go "AWWWWWW" when she receives this! Some ideas for your cupcake trinkets (after finishing the chocolates inside) can be used as:
    • keepsake box
    • jewelry box to keep rings/accessories
    • paper weight holder on your desk
    • paper clips keeper
    • spare coins keeper
    • hide keys inside
    • decorations on your make up table
    I am getting 4 designs with total 8 chocolate truffles pops! (which can eat sendiri or bundle up as Valentine's chocolate gift for boyfriend to eat hehe).
