My man has been helping me to look for the white dress in Singapore and he sent me a few that he think nice….

Two important occasion gonna happen soon are our marriage bless and my baptism.

MIA

Blog post is not as frequent as last year. WHY?

Main reason, my man is not with me now and I have to run everything on my own. This does not mean that I don't wanna write anything at all.

Before my man left to Singapore for his career, I have plenty of time at night as he will spend time with our lil monster. Well thing has changed now. Now, night time (which use to be part of my blogging time) will be my lil monster time. Plus, mst of the time I will fall asleep while I put lil monster to bed. Usually, I will sleep till the next morning.

Lil monster have to be wake up in the early morning to go to school and this mean I have to wake up earlier than him to prepare his breakfast and food to bring to school. Then I need to rush to my room and wake him up and let him finish his breakfast, then bath him then bath myself. Then send him to school. I have to do all these on my own. When my man still around, he can help me to bath lil monster while I prep myself to work.

After send him to school, I will go t to work then rushing to school in the late morning to send him back home. Phew…..distances from home to school are 5 minutes away and school to work place is 5 minutes as well. After I send him home, I will go back to work. Tiring…..sometime I do hope my FIL can help me to pick lil monster from school but unfortunately he is not around most of the time.

Once finish work, I will back to home if I can still breath, mean if I need not to take a break like happy hour time. Believe me, you will need some time out for yourself if you in my situation. Well, id I do need the "time out" I will most probably get my colleague out for a drink, usually coffee or dinner….yeap no more beer!!!

Clubbing….very hard to do it now. There are friends asked me out for that but when I think of lil monster, I would prefer to stay at home. My man is not around, so I will be the one who need to accompany him.

Now, you know why I have been MIA recently!

In case you wondering, I might be MIA for another 2 weeks as I am busy with the company inventory system!!! Now, I am an IT admin….woooi seh!

No matter how, I will still blog.

I need a hair cut!!! My hair is so so so out of shape now! Not to mention about my hair color….I definitely need to get it done before my marriage bless! :D

Before that, this is me recently! Do I gain weight? Older? Or anything….tell me.

Love,

Joey

Up, up and Up! I want curly lashes with Maybelline Magnum Volum’ Express Super Film

Yes, I like to have curly and volume lashes. There are hundred (or maybe thousand) of mascara out there which can achieve curly and volume lashes but you might need to have good eye makeup remover to remove and you need to spend some time to remove those mascara. Ouch…..that has to be done before you go to bed!

My favourite mascara lately is those can remove with warm water! Hah…you have to try this kind of mascara because to remove it is super easy!

And Maybelline Magnum Volum' Express Super Film was my latest mascara recently with this warm water removing method.

Just look at it! Curly lashes!

From the side…My eyelashes POINTING UP! Up, up and up!

This is how the mascara looks like when I removed it with warm water!

Super easy to remove and I don't worry about the mascara stain which will look like dark eye circle…

Love,

Joey

Finally it's here in my hand!!!

Yes, I don't think you dunno what it is. I wanna tell you that I am so excited!!!

Colleague A: " Joey, I want to eat oooo...!"

Me: " Eat la!" (I did not know she was talking about my candy pink cover)

Colleague B: " She talked about the cover la"

Me: " OOOO....eat  la if you want"

Colleague B: " A, you eat ehhh, I want to see how you eat...It's gonna be fun to see."

End up everyone laughing.

Story Behind A Perfume

When I was cleaning up my dressing table this morning, I found out that every single bottle of the perfume I bought, there is a story for each of them. So i decided to write this post, just to tell you "Once upon of time,....." mean STORY but I won't start with that sentences.

ESCADA Pacific Paradise.

Look at the colorful bottle, suit the name well, pacific feel!

Fruitty scent. I bid this bottle of perfume from Pan Global auction site back to year 2005. I prayed very hard that there are no one elese interested in this perfume so I don't need to pay so much for it.

Giorgio Beverly Hills

I bought his back to my high school time. My first boyfriend sister gave me a miniature size of this perfume, I like it very much because it has this mature lady scent. Yes, I can't wait to get older during high school time, hence I bought it.

Esprit For My Peace

Floral and musky scent aka teenage feel.

I bought these when I working in the metropolitan, Kuala Lumpur. I graduated from high school and got a part time job in KL while waiting for my STPM result. Bought this as my X'mas gift for myself with my own earning.

Escada Magnetic Beat

Vanilla scent. Woo...this was my favorite back to uni time. I party really hard during the first and second year of my uni life and this is the scent I like the most for the night out.

Bought it from SASA, I am so regret that I did not get the 50ml size becuase I am so in love with it.



Lancome Miracle

Bought this becuase my best friend have one of this and I like it too so...damage done lo. This best friend of mine just gave birth to a cute baby gurl. Lil Jo, will have friend to play along when I go back to my hometown (Kuala Terengganu) next time.

Kenzo Amour

This is my wedding gift given by my brother in law. Strong musky scent, well Kenzo always playing with the simple design but why I don't get the red color one. This perfune have 3 different color. WHITE which i have in the photo and there are RED and ORANGE.

I like it ever since I cut my hair to a really short style suit me when I am wearing boyish outfit



Escada Incredible Me

Sexay scent same for the bottle design. Bought this after I changed to my second job. I like to use it during night out. Especially, when dining with my man.

Anna Sui Live Your Dream

A gift from my BIL's girlfriend. I almost bought this bottle a week before she gave me this. I had this for about a year time and I can tell I like it very much...it left so little.

Lancome Miracle Forever

I bought this when I going out for shopping with my man for the first time. You were wrong if you think this was a gift from him becuase I pay for it. I bought something from Bobbi Brown as well when I bought this perfume.



Ralph Lauren Ralph Hot

I got this because I like the very first RALPH, the blue bottle one.



Givenchy Tartine et Chocolat Ptisenbon Ma Belle

I bought when I at the airport with my sister. We check-in and walk around the perfume session. I bought this becuase it was cute! How would I describe the scent....adorable baby girl smell. :)

We almost late for the flight and the weathere not so good because I experienced air turbulance for the firtst time. Not a strong one..thank God!

Dolce & Gabbana L'eau The One

I bought this from a warehouse sale. It was sitting in the box till mid of last year...OMG! I like the scent.

People will notice you if you wearing this perfume. The scent was too strong but it enough if you want some attention.

Britney Spears Circus

I asked my man to get anything from Briney Spears perfume becuase I like the bottle with the rhinestone. I actually hoping him to get me a pink/velvet bottle one. He finally got me this becuase he like the scent. It was so surprise becuase this was the first time I get a perfume which I never smell the scent before.

This is a sugary scnet perfume!!!

CK Euphoria

I bought this when I had lunch with a very close colleague somewhere around Old Klang Road. We ended up going to Parkson to get perfume for ourself. That colleague of mine was a guy. We alway go for cigi break. I am social smoker and not addicted to it.

Flora by Gucci

The most recent perfume I bought last year September. This definitely a suitable scent for a date. Guys will love it. One of my guy friend asked about the perfume I wearing when we having a drink in the bar. Then, my friend boyfriend asked about the perfume too.



So now, Valentine's Day is around the corner, go get a perfume for yourself, it don't have to be a gift from your partner. :)

Love,

Joey

Favorite Mascara

I have plenty of mascara!

See…I told you! I have a storage for mascara…it's almost full!

Which one of them is my favorite…obviously two on the top of my mascara storage.

The PINK one is Dejavu Lash Knockout and the YELLOW tube was the latest mascara from MaybellineSuper Film.

Both perform well when you talk about VOLUME and most importantly, both can be remove using warm water!!!

Matte for your nails? O.P.I Suede

Most of us like glossy finish nail polish but I found matte finish nail polish not bad.

Try to put on matte finish nail polish from OPI.

Nah…..

OPI Suede in Russian Navy.

Kinda suit my current style...



Headed to Party Play again just now, having dinner with a friend. So full till now…the choc fondant still the best.

CNY decor at Party Play....

Party Play had come out with the Amour set menu for the Valentine Day ooooo…stay tune for the menu.

Love,

Joey

Shhhh…I get something from Shu Uemura

I am so loyal to this brand. I never buy anything twice from a brand unless it is really good. Beside Maybelline, Kanebo and SKII…Shu Uemura always get return business from me.

When I moved back to KK during 2009, I always remind myself to check if I need anything from Shu Uemura when I go back to KL because we don't have Shu Uemura boutique in KK….but now I have no worry about that anymore, now we had one Shu Uemura Boutique at Suria Sabah!!!

My previous SHU's foundation was few drops left….need a replacement. I have been thinking should I get a liquid foundation from MAC or Lancome or Dior but finally I stick back to Shu Uemura because it is GOOD ma….

This time I wanted to try out their new liquid foundation, Face Architect Illuminating Moisture Fluid Foundation….it's claimed that you can get a glowing skin with this foundation but I am lil worried about the word "moisture" because I have a bad experience with Bobbi Brown moisture liquid foundation, reason being I had a combination skin type…my T-zone end up oily. At the end, the whole bottle of Bobbi Brown foundation sitting quietly till now….such a waste L

I can't wait to try out this bottle of fluid foundation. Please wait, as I am so not in mood to makeup this few days.

Shu Uemura Face Architect Illuminating Moisture Fluid

BTW, if you think it is expensive (RM130, 27ml) but for me, it's still ok. I am a heavy user, I make up almost every day, the previous bottle last up to 9 months. Do your month…you will think it's actually not too expensive.

Ohh yeah.....I watched the Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie movie – The Tourist. OMG! The movie was so so so so romantic!!!!

Love,

Joey

Moodie

My mood was extremely down for the past one week.

Work? Checked.

Period? Checked.

My Man not around? Checked.

Mood bad till until dinner with family I had no speak a single word. Yes, I know they wondering what happen but I need some privacy for myself

When I am not happy or moodie I will do cleaning job. Don’t ask a single word; let me do it eh….

Fortunately, when I am moodie I have:

Friends? Checked.

Food? Checked….Party Play served good food especially dessert.

Good music? Checked.

Most importantly, my lil man is beside with me.

Although he does drove me mad sometime but when I stare at him when he asleep, the moment is just as sweet as chocolate. Mummy will know what I mean.

Plan to go for a hair cut later on.

Yes, another hair cut. Short hair style needs high maintenance. I wanted to change my hair color as well. My current hair dye was a month ago but….I really need to do this because when a person copying whatever you did, believe it, it’s gonna drive you nuts!

Like what you bought, what you wear, what color of nail polish….seriously like everything till people around you popped you a question “How come XXX wear/used/applied something like you????”

Love,

Joey

怕吗？我不怕

这几天的心情是掉入谷底那里了。 遇上不知所谓的人。。。这里的 "人"不是一个而是两个！！！

 

至哈巴狗，抄袭猫：（你们俩真是绝配！）

我什么都不怕，就怕"暗箭伤人"， 她们俩放的"暗箭"多的数不清，我挡，挡，挡！（大戏奏乐…tok tok tok tok…chiang…）

没能力就别埋怨， 也别把自己的错 赖在他人身上。。。以上的两个人都有这缺点！ 但这或许是她们的生存之道。。。可悲啊。。。小人的生存知道！

你们俩可别说你没赖人！我可亲眼看，亲耳听！不须很多人知，挡过你们放的暗箭的人知就够了！你们俩深知 "收买人心之道"也会点"燎原之火"

但你们俩不知 "军中之鬼"中有被发现的一天。。。这天已经发生了哦。。。因为我们这些受害者知是你们俩在我们每个受害者前捏造故事，让我们

每个人对我们每个人都存有偏见。都说了，邪不能胜正咯。所以你们俩的恶行，都一一让我们这些受害者发现了！(nyek nyek nyek nyek….)

但你们生命力顽强！ 你们俩就来这招, "装无辜"！够狠! 但是， 我再次强调 "邪不能胜正"！ 你们俩继续演吧！！！

我们这些受害者会颁给奖各你们俩的，但是 "最佳女主角"只有一个噢！你们俩看着怎么演吧！

我再一次说明，我不怕你们俩，因为在工，我没做过对不起你们的事， 在私，我的私事与你们俩有何干呢，你们俩非我的亲朋契友噢！

我会赖着，你们俩看我不顺眼，好！你们就继续不顺吧！错不在我，我没什么好怕的。

再来，给你们俩一个和蔼可亲的笑脸 J

 

Roonies, Roonies...M.A.C.A.R.O.N!

I have been looking for this French dessert for so long around KK but NO, not a single tiny one!

Finally, I got to taste it today! Woohoo….好幸福! I am so lucky cuz I was thinking about the taste macaron last night and so happen I was chatting with Chef Dom yesterday…Chef Dom was the chef from Party Play!

I asked him if he know how to make macaron. He told me that is not a problem to make it just that he not sure if he able to make it with his pizza oven and he will try to make it today.

OK, I did not force him to make it but it was one of his hobby to make something….nyek nyek nyek… I am so evil. I know….

So this afternoon I was sitting in front of my pc whole day while accompany my lil man, I am off today so I have nothing to do except watching movie, surfing around the net and do colouring works with my lil man, play with him with his new toys that he got it as xmas pressie.

I did my house cleaning in the very very very early morning….just in case you wondering.

Back to my ROONIES'S story!

Then I saw Chef Dom login to FB….I popped the question to him

"macaron macaron????"

He did not reply me……so my thought…no macaron to eat lo.

Sad….cuz I love to eat sweet stuff recently…

Eih…wait…my story have not ended…(Obviously…)

Then in the late evening….when I stick my buttock in front the pc again….I saw Chef Dom FB message…

He said "DONE!!! Strawberry flavor!"

Yippie….i told him I will go there later…..

Although I kept thinking about the macaro….I still dropped by some place to have a drink with my colleague first before I headed to Party Play…..but still my mind is full of the PINK COLOR MACARON!!!!

R.O.O.N.I.E.S!!!

Now, I at Party Play while I writing this post of MACARON! While enjoying my macaron!

With a cup of hot latte!

My man asked me: "How's your roonies!"

(Yes, I am IM-ing while I eat those roonies)

Of course I enjoy it but again roonies are high in sugar content so….I better stop eating roonies now…I already finish half jar!

Need to get the bill soon! y lil man waiting me at home.

Bye bye….I gonna have a sweet dream later tonight.

BTW, Chef Dom said he can do it with pre-order! Call Party Play for enquiry!

Love,

Joey

Christmas

My journey started this year, some of you might know which "journey" I am referring to. X'mas is meaningful for me this year. Not just about feast for me but still eating feast has to be one of the agenda during Xmas :p

My man missed his flight back to KK and then flight delayed. I waited till 10pm to pick him from the airport.

Then headed to Party Play straight from airport for supper instead of dinner. Dom told me that he thought we are not coming for dinner.

 

I am not a wine person…two glasses of it got me kill….moral of the dinner, NO WINE for me if I am out alone!

X'mas eve…I have to work…but customer not as pack as we thought. Then on the night we went to  aunt home for dinner.

Fooooods….not something fancy but but but Aunt. L is one of the best cook in the family.

 

My man got bully by the twin sista and my lil man.

After dinner at Aunt. L home, again we headed to Party Play for the Xmas special dessert – Chocolate Tart! The precious moment with my man and lil man!

Lil man enjoy his chocolate milk shake!

We attended the X'mas Mass in the morning then we having a luncheon party at our home…happy happy!

Night time, RCIA mate come over to my home…

Today, my man has to be at the airport …fly back to SG again. I really hate this; I am so moody for the whole morning! My man know why I being moody. Now, me and my lil man have to wait till Chinese New Year to see him again.

Happy Boxing Day!

The best gift of the life will not be something material. Hope, you all knows that…everyone know that but you will not be realise (not much of us) that till the day when you experience it.

There is one person I know...she is a mom for a girl. Not married, single mom. She did not realize that she can do so much of thing to raise up her daughter happily, she don't know there are so much of things she can do in here life...she also don't know that MONEY is not everything.

Pray for her although I really don't like her. I know I am bad....

Love,

Joey
