Malacca #4: Cendol

Cendol is my love! The taste of Malacca Sugar is so fragrant and intense :D Speaking about malacca sugar, it is indispensable in making local kuih-muih or desserts. Malacca sugar or gula melaka is actually made by the sap collected from the coconut tree or arenga pinnata palm. 

Have tried the cendol at Jonker street :) due to the crowd and limited capacity of the shop on the first day, we visited on another time (imagine the long queue and cramped shop). Ordered durian cendol =D The Malacca sugar used here is very concentrated but it's a little too sweet for me.


The small shop lol Be ready if you're visiting during weekend or holiday!



 The service is kinda fast and price is quite cheap :) Do give it a try when you visit Malacca.

Veet "My Real Secret" College Programme

Have you ever been bothered by the hair which is the only flaw on your glowing porcelain legs? While girls in other countries are preparing to flaunt their summer-ready legs, what are bothering all the girls in all-summer-days Malaysia? Don't we want to look like this too?

Although I can just show my face in my blog 
but in reality 
.
.
.
I need to show up as a WHOLE *lame* 

Personally, I do like short pants due to the local hot weather and I feel uncomfortable wearing jeans or long trousers. And what else inside the closet? Other than countless shorts, there are gorgeous short skirts, sleeveless tops and many more which absolutely exposing my arms and legs. And I always avoid sexy semi-transparent leggings, know the reason? I'm afraid of the apparent hair on legs which might be obvious under those pretty printed leggings!    
So here's the main point. Every girl including me has unwanted hair and unlike man, the hairier the sexier LMAO. We girls have been hesitating all the time to get rid of the hair and there are so many ways to do so. Shaving is the most economical and easiest way but the stubborn ingrown hair, itchiness, thicker regrow hair and all the problems really scare us and perhaps those around us away. 


So which way is possible the best one without any unwanted side effects? 

How to attain a desirable, touchable and perfectly smooth hairless skin without the common problems of cuts, nicks, rashes, itchiness and scrapers? 

Not until I came across these products which are a real helper for every girl *winks* Thanks VEETS for the series of products as bellow:
VEET® hair removal products as the world number 1 depilatory products are a perfect way to remove unwanted hair on nearly every part of your body no matter your skin type. The depilatory creams and wax strips are an easy way to get touchable smooth, beautiful skin that lasts longer than shaving!

Now, with the new products VEET Suprem' Essence, it even makes hair removal an easy way to go =) 

VEET Suprem' Essence series consists of cream and wax strips as other series. It's suitable for normal, dry or sensitive skin. Adding points for this product is it's enriched with a blend of essential oils and velvet rose fragrance. This is amazing and I believe that girls would be really fascinated by this rose fragrance which makes your skin smooth and refreshed.  

And it's easy to use as well. 

Try the Veet Suprem’ Essence Cream as the following simple steps:

1. Use Veet Suprem’ Essence after a warm (not hot) bath or shower when the hair is softened and pores are open.
2. Be generous when applying the hair removal cream and do not rub it in. Just smooth on a thick layer with the curved part of the specially designed spatula.
3. Relax while the cream works and leave it on for a minimum of 3 minutes and maximum of 6 minutes.
4. Once done, rinse your skin thoroughly under the shower.

And Veet Suprem’ Essence Wax Strips as following steps:
1. Rub the wax strip between your hands for approximately 5 seconds to warm the wax.
2. Slowly peel the strips apart.
3. Place the strip in the direction of hair growth, and remove it against the direction of hair growth by holding the EasyGrip Tab.
4. The faster you remove the strip, the more effective it will be.
5. Repeat the application in a consistent pattern; re-use each strip until it loses its stickiness.
6. When you have finished, remove any excess wax with a Veet Perfect Finish wipe.


And you can have smooth skin as this within minutes =D 
The Veet Suprem' Essence Cream and Wax Strips are available in Watsons, Guardian, SASA and all leading supermarkets and pharmacies at RM17.90 and RM27.90 respectively! So why wanna wait anymore? Throw away your razor and visit the stores for this lovely useful products 

Feel not confident to purchase it yet? Another good news for the girls *anticipate* VEET wants young women to feel the difference and understand that beauty is not hard to attain!

So this time, Veet is hosting the Veet ‘My Real Secret’ college programme. The college programme will be held in 6 campuses:

And more great stuffs are await for us! Veet’s event partner, Watsons will be selling selected Veet’s depilatories in the campuses and you will be receiving discount vouchers on Veet depilatories that can be redeemed at selected Watson’s outlets. 

There are also an amazing line-up of activities such as a photo snap for FREE with your besties! What’s fantastic is that there will be limited-edition Veet spa-kit up for grabs! Also, the first 50 ladies who dump the rusty razors in the bin will get a Veet Hair Removal Cream (25g) in exchange!


I'll be in the event in UPM (can't wait for it *excited*) of course I can't show my sexy legs *thick face* during that event as local uni has strict dress code lol I can't wait to dump my stupid rusty razor.

So girls, jot down the date and see you =D

Pearson Publication wanna buy my blog's photo?

Received an email on one random evening when I browsed through the net.


I was actually taken aback and thought that somebody is gonna sue me due to the copyright issue LOL turned out it was Pearson Publication in Singapore trying to get my photo during the visit to Yakult company. However, the photo was not taken by me actually and it was my friend. After negotiating through several emails with the person in charged, she told me the photo costs around S$5? So I've decided to give her foc since it's for the textbook for university students like us (although I know they earned a lot from us LMAO). So let's check out the next volume of Principle of Marketing :S since my sis is studying economics in NTU, she might comes across it in the future.

This is the photo requested by her- different Yakult packaging over the world. Obviously it's because of the word SINGAPORE on it lo.

They attached the copyright permission request letter to me too but I forgot to send them back =.=
Anyway I didn't attach my real name or contact number to them in order to be credited in the text book, I think it's unnecessary. Have I done a good deed or what? And of course I told my friend aka the photographer about this too. Kinda unbelievable that a random shot to be much useful for others.

I believe


Rainbow's waterfall (2010) @Sg. Lembing : After hours of journey and hiking, we reached the top of the hill and we saw it. Rainbows on the waterfall :) As in life, put a smile on your face whenever hardship occurs because a rainbow is waiting for you at the end.

Don't ruminate on the past and wallow in self pity. As long as you have faith in yourself, your dream will make its way to a brighter tomorrow. Sometimes you might trip and go down with a bump, but please do get up with a big wide smile on your face :) All these little pieces of memories give you strength as who you are today.

不要缅怀过去并沉浸在悲痛中。只要相信自己,梦想会开辟更美好的明天。或许你会跌倒于沿途中,但请微笑着爬起来 :) 因为这些零碎的经历将给你力量并造就今天的你。

Malacca #3: Tang House

Tang House is located at Jonker Street (right beside the event stage). It's awesome and the lovely guest house is far beyond my expectation! It's a family business, all of them are really friendly and helpful. I love there!


Overall, the guest house is very lovely, artsy and cozy. The room rates are RM35, RM55 and RM70 for single, double and triple room respectively. The outer view is amazing! The mural painting is very artistic and I wonder who painted it! It looks so familiar like the one I've seen from magazine!

Mini Tang House! So cute :D

5 of us stayed in triple room which only costs RM70 per night! The room is quite big and comfortable :) And it's really clean. However, due to limited numbers of rooms in the guest house, early reservation is required.

Breakfast is available at Rm3.60! I love the coffee and egg burger. Feel like being at home :)

Overall I really satisfied with everything provided in the guest house including the service, hospitality, environment and price! It would be my first choice if I visit Malacca and think of overnight there again!

Malacca #2: Nadeje Mille Crepe

After a little farce going on in the bus, ERHEM we actually just arrive Malacca by the time, and we are suppose to go to Jonker Street. We tell the bus driver that we wanna go Jonker Street and ask him to remind us. But he's so BAD and EVIL! He kicked us out at Mahkota Parade. So with all the luggages, BOOM here we are. Although it's out of plan, but who cares? Nadeje outlet is just near to Mahkota Parade :))

We order the original, coffee and green tea mille crepes!

First time trying Mille Crepe, after hearing all the extraordinary good comments from blogger, actually I'm kinda disappointed. Well, I guess it's simply because Mille Crepe doesn't cater me, I like the creamy part but not the wet crepe layers. After all, I guess Nadeje still makes the best Mille Crepe right? :)
But I personally recommend the green tea Mille Crepe! It's delicious! Creamy fillings between the crepes layers, with the fragrant green tea. Not bad :))

Then, my friends go again! They visit the outlet at Dataran Pahlawan. They fall in love with it and wanna crave for more! *Mille Crepe Intoxication* But too bad I didn't follow them so just can show you the photos captured by them!

Both outlets are really packed *full house* on that day. They are really famous so I can't deny the tastiness of the mille crepe ^^ For those who not yet try this, just go and try this out!

CHILLIS is my love!

Actually I've been to Chillis for many times dy but never blog about it. Obviously I ain't a good blogger (I even can't claim myself as a blogger) lol But this time I gonna blog about this awesome meal I had there!

Apparently, my friend and I got some duno what eyes-got-blinded problem. Both of us ordered fajitas LOL come one lah, how can 2 girls finish up the super duper huge fajitas of Chillis? After the dishes are served, both of us are like.. wth why we order the same thing? We suppose to share it or order something else ROFL

Let see...

Mushroom Jack-Marinated grilled chicken with jack cheese and fresh mushrooms. Served with grilled onions and peppers.
Fajita trio-Grilled steak, chicken and spicy garlic and lime shrimp.

Look! They're almost the same *clap hand* Come with the sour cream, pico de gallo (salsa fresca), guacamole (made by fresh avocado) and tortillas. I feel proud cuz am so pro in introducing all the dressings for the fajitas... but actually.. LOL I overheard the conversation of the mat salleh couples and an Indian friend behind me! From the conversation, I guess they're having the same food as us so the American is introducing the fajitas (from the dressing to how to eat it-step by step tutorial) to the Malaysian friend.
It's really delicious! The scrumptious meat with the dressings and tortilla are 100% matched! I really LOVE the salsa fresca! The tomatoes are so fresh and juicy. Indeed, we really enjoy the food and have fun putting all the ingredients on the tortilla! LOL we have so much fun there. Moreover, we went at 3pm on weekday so not many customers in the restaurant, hence the service was super GOOD ♥ eg keep refilling the beverages, ask you whether the food is nice, keep taking away the unused stuffs on your table etc etc
Jeng jeng camwhore! My low profile friend, unwilling to show her face cuz she said she's too thin (envy to the max, feel wanna punch her so that she can bengkak and at least becum fatter joking).
Me!

I duno what to pose!

Charm bracelet

Thought of getting myself a charm bracelet recently. I'm fancy of the pretty accessories and after watching Monte Carlo, this idea even engraved in my heart when I saw the girl bought a charm of Paris Eiffel Tower. Every charm speaks a different story, don't you think so?
When I browsed through the net, very fast I realized that Thomas Sabo is famous for that but it's way too expensive for me lol. So I came across this very nice online store which sell customized charm bracelet. When I went through the charms one by one, something caught my eyes. It's a cute little bird cave. Believe this? It reminded me of my charm bracelet. I reminisce my childhood moment. The cute bracelet I used to wear for a long time without taking it off my wrist. I actually got a charm bracelet when I was small, around 6 years old! A broken and flattened bird nest came into my mind, vividly. It was misshaped because I bite it every night. I don't understand why I did so, maybe my gums were itchy? hmm.. There was a slipper charm too and I really forgot about the rest on the bracelet.

Since I was small, I'm well pampered by my dad. Although I'm not from a kinda well off family, but my dad always tries his best to get whatever I want. Of course I wouldn't be so greedy and ask for something beyond his ability. And every time he bought me something, mom would scold him for spoiling me too much. Of course this doesn't occur now because I rarely ask him to buy stuffs for me anymore.

And I remember the Garfield backpack that he bought from Pulau Tikus, Penang when I was around Standard 2. I pulled him into the shop and chose it! Actually I was first attracted by a Tweety Bird knapsack which cost around RM90! So my dad asked me to choose another one lol and that red backpack with a big Garfield face finally won! Its price was around RM39.90. During that time, this price was kinda expensive since the backpack was not really a necessity.
**Omg cant believe that I could find the photo in internet! It's exactly the same but mine is in red colour :D Someone is selling this second hand on RM18. Can't believe why they could keep it so well and unlike me! Of course mine was worn out and gone.
I believe most of the girls have this experience. Lol Daddy loves and spoils daughters :D The precious memory and all the scenes of pulling-daddy-to-buy-something-for-little-me are the treasure that couldn't be effaced from my heart :) So now I'm a big girl, it's time to pull my dad into a shop and buy something for him
