Red is for _____

Monday, February 24, 2014


I'm kinda late in posting this outfit and so I'll let you guess whether I wore it for Christmas, CNY, Valentines or even my birthday. Lol. Red is really so often used when it comes to special occasions. But I'll just say Red is for Monday, to beat the blues.:)


I know it will be annoying if I'll be calling myself fat all the time, but my recent weight gain is quite obvious here. Oh well at least I look healthier?

Awkward pose lol

Outfit:
Top&Headpiece: Stradivarius
Skirt: Bugis
Red Boots: Online

I noticed that I seldom wear red, I always prefer to be on the safe side with black and light colours. One thing I noticed about it though, is that it's a cheerful color, apart from yellow! No wonder red is the colour during CNY and other celebrations, it looks so festive.

Can't wait to update you guys again, have a wonderful week ahead, everyone!

Catching Up

Sunday, February 23, 2014


First of all, I am truly really sorry for being gone for more than a month.. After my last post, I was busy preparing for my 2 week vacation, and during the 2-week vacation itself, I was supposed to update my blog since I would be having a lot of free time. But alas, I did bring my laptop but I was so unlucky to have left my hard drive! :( And then when I came back 2 weeks ago, it was busy as hell at work, I moved to a new project and here I am now, although still busy, trying to update this beloved blog of mine because it's one of the things that can keep me happy.

And so it is sunday today, I am still doing some work... but the kind that I like^^ Currently munching on chips, but organic ones! Since I've been stressed out and have been gaining weight.:( Better start thinking about consuming guilt-free stuff!

 Viva La Papa! - the Organic Hand Cooked Crunchy Chips from Peru

I personally like the purple-colored one, as well as the Chillies&Lime.:)

Some info regarding the chips:
Sustainable
Viva La Papa selects the most delicious, sustainable varieties of native potatoes and other roots. These potatoes originated from Peru thousand years ago. Today, the Andean communities have grown hundreds of colourful and nutritious varities. 

It is also the proud sponsors of Amantani, who run educational boarding houses for children in the remote Andes of Peru.
Cooking
Hand cooked in small batches with pure sunflower oil, with a hint of delicious natural Peruvian flavours.
 All Natural

Gluten free
OU Kosher
 (yeah I've also wondered,  OU is the world's largest kosher certifying agency, while the Hebrew word “kosher” means fit or proper as it relates to kosher dietary law-- which I believe is the diet followed by Hebrews as described in the bible. Kinda like how Halal is to the muslims)
No GMO

No Trans Fat
NO artificial additives
Flavours
Andean Pink Salt Potato Chips
Anticucho BBQ Potato Chips
Chillies & Lime Potato Chips
Exotic Sweet Potato Chips
Andean Native Potato Chips

And then.. apart from my weight gain I also have a lot to improve with myself for this year.. From the superficial ones which is caring for my hair, skin (hopefully heal acne scars soon), and teeth, to thinking more about my career and how I want to spend the rest of my life, because I am not getting any younger! I am really grateful that I have a stable job now, but I also have dreams and goals, so I must be working even harder and doing better in my job from now on.

Oh and speaking of hair... been recently careful to use haircare products because of my recent bleaching. From my previous post, I mentioned having been given the Shining Hair Water and the Damage Care Hair Water. I must say it did manage to make my hair less frizzy over the last few weeks, and I also made sure that I don't wash my hair everyday anymore...

 My hair, after bleaching + dyeing. Do you see all the frizz? 



My hair now after using tsubaki products. It's still dry but at least there's less frizz! I know I still have a looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong way to go to regain my hair's health, and I would need a lot of salon treatments, but at least I'm now paying more attention to it than before.:)

Luckily I also received O&M haircare products! Just in time, huh? Le Bono Collection was thoughtful to have given me the ones for coloured hair :) Will be using it from now on and I'll post again for results!
