Regrets

Sometimes, when I look back at the things I've done. There is a certain sense of regret. There are many things that I dreamt of when I was young, many things I wanna achieve, but looking back, it's been a path of fear and procrastination. And soon enough, I realize that time is passing really fast. All I wish is to let time freeze, or even let me turn back time to when you're still around.

Nonetheless, I recently found an interesting and awesome product that I would want to share!!!

BEFORE : Curls are not well defined and hair is rather dry

 

Curly and Wavy hair is definitely one of the essential looks for a date out, a grand dinner or even a normal 'chill-out' date with friends. My hair is definitely dry, and for those who knows, I frequently bleach my hair, causing my hair to be dry and frizzy. But after using product by Liese, my curls not only stayed but my hair was also moisturized.

 

My new found love for a curly and wavy hair!!

The product is pretty simple to use!! Simply spray the product on your curls, use your fingers to twirl the curls and leave it to dry.

2D1N to BATAM

After such a busy week, finally the fam got to indulge in a short vacation, and a cheap one too, at only est S$70 per pax.
Its my virgin trip to Batam, and my impression for Batam initially was all about relaxation and not much shopping. What I assumed was absolutely wrong!! The shopping they have there blew me away!
There were so so many factory outlets and they carried original products, selling at as low as S$12. However, not all stuff sold in the factory outlets are original, probably only those like Superdry, Abercrombie & Fitch, Polo Ralph Lauren and others.
I seriously wondered why was it so dirt cheap, and they mentioned that these goods carries slight defects thus was sold in factory outlet like Batam, as Batam was one of the places where the products was manufactured.
We were treated to a cultural show near the premises of Golden Prawn 333, where our lunch will be served.

 Peeling of coconut done by his teeth. Imagine how thick the husk is and yet his teeth could penetrate through the hard husk, peeling it portions by portions. And within 1 minute, the coconut's husk is out!!!

 After the peeling performance, he grabbed some burning charcoal and placed it inside his mouth. And after it was placed inside the mouth, there was smoke fuming out of his nostrils and corners of the mouth. For a moment, he resembles a fire-breathing dragon! I seriously wonder how they did such performance.

 Another exhilarating performance, glass eating! This man took out a piece of glass and bite it off, chewing it slowly in his mouth and he then SWALLOWED it! The performance was seriously crazy, these talents were indeed out of the norm.

 Finally out sumptuous, 8 course lunch which was within the package.  They serviced some shellfish, sotong, flower crab, fish and prawn. The guide told us upon arriving that the seafood served wouldn't be as good as those sold in Singapore. It was because they "A" graded seafood were all exported to Singapore, and they are only left with 'B" graded seafood.

 After lunch, we dropped by Tua Pek Kong Temple which holds a history of over 40 years. And it is said to be the oldest temple in Batam.

 Just beside the temple, there was a short street selling traditional Indonesian desserts/kueh. 

 Indonesian owned drink, its sugared red tea. Honestly, it was very refreshing, considering the weather that was scorching hot.

 This kueh was delishh!~ I don't remember the name of it but it was pandan flavoured.

 We headed to the hotel after all the visitation/shopping. We were staying in Harmoni One hotel. The hotel was huge! It was a 4-star Victorian themed hotel.

 The lobby was rather spacious, and we were greeted with a welcoming Orange Juice and of course their friendly staffs.

The hotel was not located near any shopping malls that was within walking distance, thus we decided to have dinner in one of the restaurants. They were serving buffet dinner, and the price as totally worth it. It was approximately S$14 per person.

 Their variety of dessert was awesome and unlike most hotels, which focuses on simple desserts like cakes and such, they served a wide array of Indonesian dessert which tasted great!

Though it was a short 2D1N trip, but it was sure refreshing and relaxing. Best of all, it was worth it! Now back to reality!

This offer was bought in some deals website, do let me know if you are interested so I can provide more details! :)

Looking back at the last post, its been a year.

Oh gosh, that is definitely a long time since I last blogged, all thanks to my laziness. Oh well, who doesn't procrastinate right? Anyway, how's the haze coming along for all? Not really positive for me, but remember to have your masks on, ya! I have got MINE!

Back to the main topic.
Recently I stumbled upon this "hidden" restaurant within Siglap. Review was fantastic and the food sure looks good. Fam & I decided to give it a try.

 The whole interior of this place is out of the ordinary. It somehow gives you a feeling that you're not in Singapore as there were quite a fair bit of Caucasians.

 We started off with the appetizer, a simple Caesar Salad.

 This is the main dish, BEER CHICKEN. Unlike the dishes on the menu, order for this have to be made 1 day in advanced. Uniqueness of the chicken, would be that it is so soft and tender in the inside, with a zest of traditional beer within. Topping it up with the sauce contained in the beer can, its definitely a perfect match. 

 Dad wanted to order something else, so he opted for Lamb Shanks. Surprisingly, unlike the usual, the meat was rather tender and the mushroom sauce was the perfect companion. There wasn't any strong smell of lamb (which I don't like).

 The staff was very friendly and sweet, to cut up the chicken for us and have it placed nicely for easy consumption.

The day ended with a recommendation from their lovely staff, Traditional Brownie & Ice cream. The brownie is actually a molten cake, warm and sinful, with chocolate fudge oozing out with within. Pairing it with the vanilla ice cream, its heavenly yet sinful! Totally worth it.

Random

Pardon my random posting after so long. There are some feelings inside of me that have to be voiced out. I have always respected him as an elder and a man of the family. But after such reoccurring "incidents" ( deliberately ), I totally lost the respect I once had.

THE AVENGERS!

Hey guys!
I have got something exciting to share, basically, I am the one who is super excited about it.
I am sure you guys know Xmen, The Hulk, Iron Man and Captain America. OK, there are many to name but those were the few that many would definitely know of!

Guess what?! They are all appearing on the screens together because...

The Avengers are coming to the theaters on 1 MAY 2012!

And among all, one would have their favourite.
I won't be greedy and say all is my favourite, but I surely have one in particular.
And it is none other than, THE HULK!

I know many would say girls would normally like female characters like black widow, but for me, nope!
Hulk changes whenever angers enters him and it is said that the angrier he is, the more powerful he is.
So that was what I like about him, as I once read that anger was the most powerful source of motivation, allowing someone to be as powerful and successful as they want.

And for The Hulk, he had this power in him and he did not use it for the bad, but dedicating him and his powers ti bring peace to the people.
He is like a peace keeping giant! Ok, I may make it sound weird but, that is what I like about The Hulk!

I am also very interested to hear what are your favourite characters as well! Do share with me ya! So I won't feel weird for liking Hulk as a female. Ha! Joking

So after reading, are you eager to watch it?
Here's a trailer to keep you on the edge of your seats!

There! So?
