I dun really like to put on mp3 on my blog, coz it will interrupt readers, like when they are listening to their own iTunes while surfing my blog, the music on my blog will interrupt them! it happens to me many many times, when i visit other's blog with mp3 on.
but I JUST LOVE THIS SONG 梁静茹 - 没有如果. so i've decided to post it up for a few days, maybe u love it too?
A very meaningful and cute lyrics, describing a wooden block, and i keep on repeat this song in my iphone too!
如果 如果 沒有如果如果如果 最後變成路過..

Big hoo-ha on S Factor
I've been watching S Factor for the past few weeks on channel 5, so now, Kay Kay (the hot chick who always appear in Xiaxue's blog) is the winner of ten thousand cash.
Right after Sunday's final episode, alot alot of people keep on gossiping about it, about Sherine's fake nose and Kay Kay hiding her boobs job, while Sonia was very honest by telling the audience that she spent so much on her boobs surgery.
"So with that, KK continues to say that she wasnt afraid of letting people know that her boobs are fake. Yet, having seen through the entire S factor... Not once did i notice any clips of her mentioning her boobs are fake, but more so, of those that she didnt have any surgeries done and how others have gone through plastic surgeries." from Sherine's blog - one of the contestant in S Factor.
Duno who is true and maybe it's just mediacorp needs some viewership by cutting the "good" part of one, display the "bad" part, so the audience will start to gossip, like.. playing a role in changing the public's perception on the people in the show, but guess what we need is popcorn and potato chips, sit down and watch show.
If you havent not watch, you can watch it via youtube, episode 2 - 8. I cant seem to find episode one.
Sherine's blog (click for her post) actually mentioned about Kay Kay's fake boobs, Kay Kay didnt deny etc.
And another contestant Holly Jean, thinks that the whole series is very skewed against Sherine. Click here for her post.
p/s: As for all the above, I got to know from the show and Sherine's blog too. so do not jump into the conclusion that what i said above is true, go read urself. (except for Sonia, she admit she did boobs job in the show)

Hong Kong Day 4, 5 & 6
Day 4 in Hong Kong:
- Langham Place
- Argyle Street
- Argyle Centre
- Fa Yuan Street
- Ladies Street
- Shen Zhen
A shopping day in Mongkok on day 4.
Went Langham Place and bought my Ettusais product, proceeded to Argyle Street and Argyle Centre (picture as above) to shop, the clothes / heels there are like our Far East Plaza, reasonable price, or even cheaper, so save your money from other shopping mall and spend here. Fa Yuan Street too.
But I din buy much here, only a few, save for Shen Zhen.
Went Ladies Street too, nothing much, like another Temple Street, another KL Petaling Street.
After that, we proceeded to Shen Zhen!! Shen Zhen was not in our plan but since we met his friend, so we decided to go. Went for manicure and pedicure immediately after I reached Luo Hu Commercial City. Spent 3-4 hours there for my nails while andre sitting next to me enjoying their massage services. Not much photos coz I was real busy shopping. spent alot alot here. heels are cheap, clothes too. you have to bargain!!
Took a cab to Le Yuan Road to meet andre's friend, we had our dinner at Jin Dao yuan Restaurant for dinner, we had this super yummylicous crab porridge, and other dishes, was feeling good! thanks Christopher for the treat.
The crab porridge, about S$80 for this?
Christopher and his gf = our tour guide. I cant wait to shop right immediately after dinner, so we actually ran to those shopping street/mall, we were so excited! we dun have the time to snap more photos, I was busy shopping, andre got no hand to take other stuff other than my shopping bag, about 2 hours with more than 30 bags? and he keep on saying he want to see how much he can carry! We split into 2 groups, Christopher bring andre around and I was with his gf. omg i had so much fun shopping there.
Around 12am, I was tired, we decided not to go back to HK, stayed one night in Shen Zhen. Took a cab back (about 10 mins ride) to somewhere near Christopher's house, continue shopping!! Those night life street, open at only 4pm, close at 3 to 4am. With his gf around, I bought those dresses at about S$6 to S$8 EACH. I learned the China shopping skill! btw, his gf is a Chinese. :)
went to Christopher's house to remove my make up and all coz i din bring any cleanser out (never expect to shop until so late.)
After that..................................... me and andre CONTINUE to our next shopping street. LOLLLLL. We shopped all the way until 3am. I was freaking hell tired.
_____________________________________________________
Day 5 in Hong Kong:
- Shen Zhen
- Ocean Park
- Mongkok
- Places near to Temple Street
Woke up at around 10am, had our breakfast nearby, at the same time, I was wondering how am i going to bring back all my loots. so we went back to Luo Hu Commercial City to buy my luggage. lol.
Another round of crazy shopping. Not much dresses in Luo Hu so I bought more heels there. Found my luggage and we went back to HK.
Rushed back to hotel, put our stuff, rest for 10 mins and we proceeded to Ocean Park! i didnt bother to change my clothes as i was tired! not much photos too coz we were busy playing. heh.
Ocean Park: Took MTR alight at Admiralty station, change to Citybus 629 to Ocean Park directly, bus fare HK$10.60 per adult. (yeah, skip the cable car!)
I love the view! and it was so exciting to play those roller coaster, its like flying towards the sea!
andre won this giant chicky for me. we were so lucky!
BUT
It is really really too big for me to bring back to Singapore, so I changed to a small chick. sad.
Tired us left Ocean Park at 6pm. Proceeded to Nathan Road to buy my Heng Hiong Lao Po bing 恒香老婆饼. Walked around, then go back to Jordan, walked around, had Hui Lau Shan dessert again, went back to hotel at about 10pm.
Packing is such a bitch, I packed my luggage until 3am !!!!
and Guess what? we overslept on the next day, our departure time is 11am, we woke up at 9.35am! we shd be at the airport by then!!
Chiong all the way, and the hotel staff was telling us the journey to airport is about 50 mins by cab. totally freak me out. No choice but we quickly get on to cab and the driver was good, he speed at 130km/h to send us to the airport! total cab fare from hotel to airport at about S$40++!!!!
It was a total nightmare being the last one to check in, luckily the airline officer in charge was good enuff to open the gate and let us check in! then we ran all the way to the other terminal to board the plane! whatssup to morning exercise.
Home sweet home and I took few days to unpack my luggages, fixed my new wardrobe for all the dresses. Now I got one wardrobe just for my dresses! weee
p/s: I want to go Shen Zhen again!
some of my loots, bags lying around the floor, shoes and skincare products.

Hong Kong Day 3
Day 3 in Hong Kong:
Took 45 mins of MTR to check out something important for the next day. hiak hiak.
We went to Wellington Street to taste out the world famous roasted goose Yung Kee Restaurant. I find it abit overpriced. It's like so~ so~, well, maybe i duno how to appreciate, Forbes ranks this place as one of the top 15 restaurants in the world.
However, their century egg, siew mai, char siew bun was super yummy!!
We proceeeded to Madame Tussauds Hong Kong. Took bus 15 again.
Entry ticket at HK$ 150 per adult, about S$30.
I bought this book to keep.
I like this picture! roars. im the dowager! i want the chair!
with the fake Twins.
as you can see from the boobs, Madonna.
Marilyn Monroe at HK.
Yau Ming. I was like wtf so tall. like a GIANT! he can drive a car MEH?
and many more other pictures.....
We took mini bus down to Central again. lol. decided to try out Tsui Wah Cafe Restaurant 翠华餐厅, which is famous with their pineapple bun, 波萝包! located directly opposite Yung Kee Restaurant, reasonable price and yummyliciousfood bun.
I love love love it!
I wasnt ready for the camera but just to show you their typical maggie mee with luncheon meat and egg.
After our meal, we walked along Wellington Street to locate Lyndhurst Terrace for the famous egg tart!!
Exact Location: Tai Cheong Bakery 泰昌餅家 at 35 Lyndhurst Terrace, Central.
just look at the queue and you know why!! HK$5 for one egg tart, cheap cheap. they sell other pies too, like chicken pie, char siew pie etc.
Egg Tarts. The Panda cookies and the rest was from Kee Hua Bakery on Wellington Street.
All about food.
After that, we went to Causeway Bay for shopping! From department stores, to small boutiques and bargain streets, it will take you one whole day to walk thru. Anyway, we went to Times Square to buy my Kiehl's skincare products.
Hoho, spent quite alot here. Kiehl's in Hong Kong is cheaper (by abit) than Singapore, so I got it all since I want to change my skincare range. I was using Kiehl's when I was in poly, then change it to Clinique, and Clarins. Now, I am back to Kiehl's!
Foaming Non-Detergent Washable Cleanser, 250ml - HK$170, about S$34.
my all time fav Calendula Extract Toner, 250ml - HK$310, about S$62. (I used to buy in Singapore at S$75!!)
Yerba Mate Tea Lotion, 75ml - HK$315, about S$63! (this is the most painful of all, small bottle yet so expensive, but.... i just feel like trying out, quite new product from Kiehl's, and Singapore selling at freaking S$78 lah!)
No.1 Lip Balm - HK$ 75, S$15 (not much different)
Helped peiyun to get her shampoo there too.
Overall, im happy with my purchase!!
A random picture of me at the street of Causeway Bay, outside SOGO.
Walked here and there, then we proceeded to Avenue of Stars.
Take MTR, alight at East Tsim Sha Tsui Station.
Us at Avenue of Stars. A very very very windy night. love it!
We rest for a while before Temple Street.
Took MTR, alight at Jordan Station.
Typical night market.
I was quite tired by then, so we went to Hui Lau Shan for dessert. We had this dessert so many times over the few days! they used to have one outlet here in Singapore, the one and only near Isetan Scotts, we always go during poly after school with my classmate, but i think closed down in 2006 or something, or they move to somewhere else i duno...
drained. i was so tired! but nonetheless, the mango ice with jelly and glutinous rice ball was nice!
Back to hotel to rest and prepare for the next day!

Hong Kong Day 1 & 2
Finally im going to post about my HK trip.
Been watching drama - Starlit 心星的淚光 over the weekend and basically I cried almost EVERY EPISODE. watched till the 3am on Fri and Sat night, sleep and woke up with extremely puffy eyes, eat breakfast cum lunch brought back by andre, continue my dramacry again. sounds so stupid but I cant control my tears, way too touching!
________________________________________________
The weather in HK was cooling, maybe 27C during the day and about 23C in the night, windy.
Day 1 & 2:
On board to HK.
We were on same flight with andre's friend, Christopher and his gf. A Singaporean but he's going back to Shen Zhen for his business, whereas his house here is like his permanent hotel, come back once a few weeks for his pub business at boat quay.
Like so coincidence! Hence, me and andre decided to visit Shen Zhen since they will be bringing us around for cheap food and DIRT cheap shopping!
I start shopping at Changi Airport before my flight. Karen Mok new perfume, saw it from the magazine so I went SASA to check out, but I din buy because it's too ex! Liyan got got 30ml from SASA at about S$48 or 58?
I got from airport duty free, saw it immediately after I check in. 3 bottles of 30ml at S$ 60. like more than 50 percent discount, actually it was S$40 per bottle but there were some promotion going on, so... how can I resist myself? helped liyan to get one bottle too.
On airport express to Kowloon.
We bought the Tourist Octopus package which includes:
Airport Express Two Free Single Journeys with 3 days unlimited travel on MTR.
Price = HK$300 (if im not wrong), which includes HK$50 deposit, you can do a refund on your last day.
We reached HK at about 8pm, so we decided not to take a cab since it's quite late and no point rushing back to hotel. We took the free K1 mini bus instead of taxi from Kowloon to our hotel.
and there it is, Novotel Nathan Road.
and they are using MAC! I love it~
There was some problem and we ended up being upgraded to an executive room at the smoking floor, the room have ipod dock! love love.
But what's up with MR.KHEW!
We had our dinner nearby and went back to the hotel. Switch on the TV, and tada, reported one swine flu confirmed case in HK.
me and andre was like -_-", first day in HK.
2nd day, woke up quite early for Giant Tian Tan Buddha, I dun really feel like going such places but for the sake of going......
Nathan Road. Typical HK street, like my dad said, it never change even after 30 years. lol.
We took MTR everywhere, since we got the 3 days unlimited travel.
A picture of us at Jordan station, 5 mins walk from our hotel.
So you can see people with mask everywhere on our 2nd day. the news keep on repeating itself and reminding people to wear mask whenever you got a flu/cough/sore throat etc.
and basically you cant cough on the train without mask on, coz everyone will start staring at YOU! and even move away from you. serious, there was one uncle coughing without wearing a mask, the person sit beside him immediately move away to other seat. LOL.
Back to Giant Buddha, alight at Tung Chung station, proceed to Ngong Ping 360 cable car.
It was ridiculous. why? that day was their special praying day, we queue for one and a half hour AT LEAST to get on to that damn cable car, we wanted to change to bus but it was super long queue too. plus the fare for cable car was slightly higher because of special day.
I was quite ZZZ about it, by the time we reached there, I totally dun feel like going UP to the statue.
there you see, Tian Tan Buddha. and we stopped here, lol.
Went back to Tung Chung station, had our lunch at Citygate Factory Outlet. I've got nothing to shop here, andre bought 2 PUMA racing shoes, I can see he loves it so so much. haha.
I got myself a small sling bag.
We took MTR to Hong Kong Station, went over to Central Exchange Bus Terminal for Bus 15 to The Peak.
After the long queue from Ngong Ping cable car, I've decided to AVOID all the cable car and ferry. Took a bus instead. cheaper fare too.
Taken at The Peak Tower - Sky Terrace.
The Japanese duno how to take picture! blur.
Rest for a while and we took the mini bus down to Central Station.
We proceeded to our next stop, Tsim Sha Tsui - Granville Road!
A shopping street. The price almost the same as SG, ladies footwear at about HK$120 (S$24), clothes and dresses at about S$30-40, design wise.. average only.
I bought Pantene Clinicare at super cheap price! i've using this range of shampoo for 1 year plus? used to purchase online at the price of S$12 (same price for shampoo and conditioner, 200ml only) and now I;ve got 2 big bottles at about S$9 each? SUPER CHEAP! bought masks as usual, enuff for my use for the next few months. Look at the BIG bottle of banana boat aloe vera gel. it's cheap too!
Had dinner there and dragged ourselves back to the hotel.
I love my Sony camera, love the effect!
