100PLUS ‘Win the Day’ Campaign

After weeks of waiting, the 100PLUS ‘Win the Day’ campaign featuring the 1^st interactive venting machine was finally here at Sunway Pyramid. I was there early in the morning to get my hands on experiences.

I think I’m little too early to be there.. Time for selfie with my S4 again! :P

This interactive vending machine was strategically located at the LG2 Ice Rink (near to Wendy's). Well, the IT team was busy preparing the systems set up. Once all systems are configured, the program linking up with Facebook will be initiated. *patiently waiting*

In the meanwhile, the dedicated promotion team were there to make sure that the vending machine is well stocked with the 100PLUS and ready for the challenge!

Love Lock In Busan, South Korea

The Love Locks of Paris, had spread to Busan Tower.

I was pleasantly surprised to find a whole lot of Love Locks here. It seems like these are not an uncommon sight across the world these days. I can see thousands of love padlocks hanging along the fences and benches surrounding the Busan Tower. Each with a messages on it, couples’ names and dates. But too bad, I can't read it.. *sad*

Hahah.. I only have this photo of me to lock it here! #S4

Love Locks are a symbol of everlasting love and deep commitment for your partner. If you have your significant other with you, you could bring a padlock or love notes and then attach it to the fence. Otherwise, you can purchase it from the souvenir shop at the Busan Tower.

 Cute and lovely padlock in heart shape :)

Purplish Red Is My New Hair Color!

Oooh! My gray hairs were starting to pop out again, and I'm not liking it!

You know what?!  I've got a family history of gray hair on my mom’s side and I started noticing gray strands on my hair when I was in my early 20s. It wasn't a huge amount, but it was slow and steady. My sister was practically one of the lucky ones I guess that she take after my dad’s genes.

Eventually, coloring my hair has been a part of my life since my twenties. 

Camwhore with my #S4 while waiting for my turn to transform my hair into goddess look!

Couple of days ago, I had my hair colored and cut. But this time round, I have decided to try out a new salon. They offer reasonable prices and are professional in every sense of the word. I always open to whatever hair stylist wanted to do and what would look best for me. He recommended a u-shaped back for my long hair haircut, chemically relaxed for my wavy/frizzy hair, a right shade that cover my gray hair and following up with scalp treatment that helps to promote a healthy hair growth.

The Honda Hybrid Family Road Trip 2013 @ Ipoh

Well, just after I returned from my Busan trip, I did a 2 days 1 night road trip up to Ipoh with a group of bloggers. Although I have been visiting Ipoh numerous times but this was the first time I travel with Honda Civic Hybrid. I was absolutely blown away by how much fun we had!

 Me & the new Honda Civic Hybrid

 Me & my travel buddy (Jess)

We started our journey from Subang Jaya early in the morning at 8am. On our way, we stopped at R&R Rawang to opt for a quick breakfast and a cup of coffee instead. I was excited and a bit nervous at the same time because I’m driving a brand new Honda Civic Hybrid car that don't belong to me, but I thoroughly enjoyed driving it.

  Smooth and a satisfying drive

After a long journey we finally reached Tecco Ipoh around 11.10am, just in time to join The Honda Hybrid Family Road Trip 2013. We were greeted friendly by one of the Honda staff and brought us around explaining the Honda line of hybrid cars and how they works.

Clarins The New Extra-Firming Smoother Treatment + Mini Haul

Yes! I hauled again!

Last week, I went for my monthly facials at Clarins Skin Spa, Pavilion. I decided to try The New Extra-Firming Smoother Treatment that comes with new youth-enhancing features. It is an intensive 60-minute facial to smoothen wrinkles, targets firmness, tones, strengthens skins, structure and redefines facial contours with a youth boosting massage.

Like all other Clarins treatments, The Extra-Firming Smoother Treatment uses 100% manual hand movements and associates the best of science and nature to deliver exceptional results. There was no machine or extraction involved in the entire facial. Indeed, this was one of the best facials I have ever tried. I felt totally relaxed and pampered as I enter into the facial room. The soft music was playing in the background, the scent in the room was light and aromatic.

I had a skin consultation before my treatments and the outcome was explained thoroughly. I spent a full 60 minutes of pampering for my skin and the beautician applies each product through gentle massage, and my neck, shoulders and hands aren't neglected either but tended to in this total experience of well-being.

I’ve Got A Big Parcel!

I've got an incredibly large items delivered to my home last week and if you did notice my Facebook updates, you will know what I'm talking about!

Heheheee.. My biggest parcel so far!

I ordered this ladder online and it was delivered much sooner than I expected. It takes only one day to deliver. Well, I have resisted buying a ladder like this for a long time, simple because I don’t want the hassle of having to drag the ladder back to my home. But now I can simply place an order online without leaving the convenience of my home and it’ll deliver to my doorstep for just a nominal fee of RM28 to RM49 depending on the sizes.

WhaaAA! I can’t wait to tear through the bubble wrap! 

This ladder came wrapped in two layers of plastic sheeting, and the leg ends and top were bubble wrapped under the plastic. There’s no a scratches, no dents, and everything is very much to my satisfaction.

My new helper.. Aluminium 7-step double-sided Ladder

I've actually heard of this Winner Ladder brand, and my husband told me this is a very good ladder and he was right. This ladder is very lightweight and sturdy. Whether I need to change light bulbs or cleaning the ceiling fan, I felt very safe using it at various positions.

Vanish Works Wonders On My Son Shoes!

Oh No! It's Saturday again! Most people look forward to the weekend with gleeful anticipation. But Saturdays is my least favorite day because I hate to clean! My son’s white shoes are a particular problem; especially he loves to play rough. His shoes would get all black with dirty marks after a week of schooling. Cleaning his shoes is such a big challenge for me.

See..! Astonishing, I know!

I've constantly asked my son to behave and not playing too hard in the school. But there is always some reason for him. So instead of going out to buy him a brand new one, I would rather save up the money and look for the best/ easy way to clean it.

Eventually I come across a demonstration of this New Vanish Power O2 and I thought I’d give it a try. It comes two (2) different types: Vanish Power O2 Crystal White Stain Remover (White Packaging) & Vanish Power O2 Stain Remover (Pink Packaging) and available in both powder and liquid form.

In order to make the white shoes whiter, I used the Vanish Power O2 Crystal White that gives amazing stain removal and whiter whites 1st time every time.

Samsung Galaxy Note II In Amber Brown

Brown is a warm color that always gives me a feeling of comfort, simplicity and stability. But different individual reactions to the color brown can vary widely. Personally I loved anything from beige to brown. I have it in my house, my rooms, perhaps even bathrooms, as it gives me a sense of warmth, relax and a homely feel.

My favorite shoes color is always brown. It looks great on my feet and my legs somehow appear longer. The color is so neutral, elegant, and it matches almost every outfit I wear. Brown also makes me feel much more confident and mature. While a brown toned handbag is always classy, timeless, wearable and tailored for every occasion.

 Love this brown shoes so much!

I like the color brown because it makes me think about chocolate! Warm browns are simply delicious and it’s always stimulates my appetite. These are the color of coffee, truffles, chocolate chips, caramel and many more. It makes me feel happier and satisfying.

Yes! Chocolate is BROWN!!!

Lately, Samsung has finally unveiled its Amber Brown Galaxy Note II models. These new color will join the four existing color options - Marble White, Titanium Grey, Martian Pink and Ruby Wine. The device looks exactly like any other Note II except the color difference, obviously.
