11 Things You Didn't Know About Me

11 Things You Didn't Know About Me Sunday, July 12, 2015

Assalamualaikum and hello! It has been a long time since I last posted anything beneficial. Apologies for that, I have been very busy with work and assignment. Now I have experienced how hard it is to juggle between work and study at the same time, and I have three more semesters (10 more subjects, oh Lord give me the strength). I screwed up a bit but I hope I'll have the strength to fix things up like I always do, insyaAllah. Do pray for me okay fellas? I am now on track to pick up where I left my blogging spirit. I need it back as life feels boring without the excitement and satisfaction of updating my blog and sharing my beauty finds with my readers :')

So, let's start with something light okay? My brother is coming home from UK for a three-months summer break. He is going to spend Ramadhan and Eid with us in Malaysia, yeayy! I have been missing him so much, I feel like I lost a part of me when he flew away :'( He is so close to me and being my only brother, his absence makes me lost my permanent bodyguard for a while. It is always him who came to my rescue when I need anything. He even came all the way from Melaka to KL just because I want to watch a movie and I don't have anyone to accompany me. So yeah, since he is coming back, as a cheeky sister I requested him to buy me some stuffs that are not available here (or could be very expensive here if it is available).

Choosing what to buy was a pain because I also don't know what to buy, hahaha ~~masalah betul perempuan ni~~ XD i ended up Googling for random keywords/phrases like "UK Best Beauty Buy 2015" and found this video by Essie Button and I chose two items from it. It is the La-Roche Posay Serozinc and Super Facialist Pore Purifying Clay Mask. I decided to try these two items because my skin is oily + acne-prone and I wear makeup almost every day so, it suits my skin profile to test them :) I hope they'll work well on my skin!

La-Roche Posay Serozinc

Super Facialist Pore Purifying Clay Mask

The other two items are makeup from Barry M. I chose to try the Flawless Matte Finish Foundation and the Flawless Light Reflecting Concealer, which both reviews I have read at The Sunday Girl's blog | click here for concealer review | click here for foundation review |. I'm only taking these two (despite of being a makeup junkie) because I know that I will use them the most. I don't want to buy a lot like a mad makeup addict because I don't wanna burden my brother, though I know he loves me unconditionally and will buy anything I want XD

I was so happy (STILL AM VERY HAPPY) when he Whatsapped me these images, telling that he has got all 4 items I wanted. I asked him why did he buy two Serozinc as I thought it was for himself. Turns out my brother actually uses Lancome wth... I cannot brain this... my brother is using Lancome and here I am, not using any high end brands XDD That extra Serozinc belongs to his lady, hahaha XD pandai betul budak-budak ni.

So that's all for now I guess? If you're reading this, please join my excitement to get all these new stuffs coz I'll share my verdicts about them right here in this blog ^_^ oh, that's my brother with his other half, and that uncle they met at Bath recently. I dont know, was he cosplaying or what? Toodles! :p

Love,

Throwback : F1 Grand Prix and Markets'15 Haul

Bisou BonBon Wednesday, April 01, 2015

Assalamualaikum and hello! I am in the midst of photographing and editing a few review pictures so, let's have a throwback post shall we? Last Sunday I was invited by a very close friend to watch the F1 Grand Prix at Sepang. That was my second time watching the race live, my first being in 2009 when I was in Form 5. The race was awesome and interesting! I regard them racers like kids, because some of their moves were too funny. There were no major accidents, just one racer got disqualified during his second lap when he skidded and his car got stuck (kesian) and someone got a penalty for nudging a fellow racer. I learned that if you were to go to Sepang for this F1 Grand Prix next time, come at least 1 hour early because getting a parking and waiting for the shuttle bus is not quick. Bring an umbrella, wear a hat, bring your sunnies and aloe vera facial mist because it was so damn hot, like really really freaking hot -_- Overall, it was definitely an experience I'd like to relive :) I might not be a die hard fan of F1, I can't even get their names right except for the famous ones but what the hell, I love this kind of sport entertainment.

When I left the Sepang, it started to drizzle and the road taken (as directed by the traffic police) was so far. I made the race against time and rain to reach The Markets at Jaya One in time. When I left it was already 1655 and The Markets will close at 1900. My initial plan was to buy my second CANMAKE Transparent Finish powder because I saw on its Fb page that they are having a major sale that day. When I arrived, it was raining cats and dogs with a storm and luckily those vendors were indoors. CANMAKE's booth was directly in front of the door, and when the automatic door suddenly open, the storm gushed inside and in a split second my headscarf was everywhere (T_T) i wish my headscarf sticks to my body like a magnet in times like this. Pity those CANMAKE girls, they had to hold on to their displays while their hair and skirts went mad until the door closes again, and then we all had a good laugh looking at each other's state XD when I arrived, they're having a "3 for RM50" sale since the Markets are ending. So, I grabbed the Transparent Finish Powder, Smooth Liquid Foundation and Smooth Skin Primer. I had a hard time choosing as I was torn between the mascaras, eyebrow pencils and lipsticks, but I guess I better buy something that I will definitely use on a daily basis, hence all the face product. I want my investment to be 100% worthy and utilized. I really don't regret buying them because as I have tried the foundation and primer recently, they're both very awesome ^_^ then I saw Bisou BonBon booth and I couldn't help but buy their famous First Aid Salve since I easily get skin irritation nowadays, and I received a sample of their Lemongrass body scrub to try. I met Shelby who was manning Bisou's booth alone and had a chat with her. She's very friendly and bubbly in person, I hope to see you again Shelby ;) As I walked around looking at all the stuffs on sale, I munched on some very tasty Blueberry Cheese tarts I bought from a permanent stall there. I fell in love with a few other things like a tribal bracelet, a statement rose necklace, a dragon pendant, a timeturner necklace (Harry Potter!) and a huge Mockingjay pin but sadly they all have to pass because I cannot spend too much on things that are not of needs. I hope someday I'll chance upon them again and have the kachings to buy :)

So yeah, that was how I spent my weekend :) Watched a race and then raced to buy something by the end of the day. Looking forward to a not so stressful week and this upcoming weekend I shall go back to Melaka to spend time with my family and my cat Bob ^_^ toodles!

Life Update : Out of Comfort Zone, Again.

personal Monday, February 09, 2015

Assalamualaikum and hello! I have been slacking on updates again. Part of it is because I was busy running back and forth from Melaka to KL and part of it is because as per now, I don't have internet connection at home yet, I have to wait for a few more days before Unifi is installed at my new rental house.

Well here's a good news. I am finally employed ^_^ yeah this is gonna be my first professional occupation since I graduated. I am thrilled and nervous at the same time. I hope that my first job will be sweet, and I hope that I'll be really good in whatever I do. I also am in the middle of planning whether to continue my master or not. Offer letters has arrived and now I'm cracking my head to think of another big decision. Working and studying at the same time? Whew!

It is hard when I am leaving my family again. No, I am not running away from my family house. There is not many opportunity to get a job that suits my qualification in my hometown, so KL here I come. I wish I have that magic tent like in Harry Potter so I don't have to worry much about getting a proper house to rent on my own and then master the concealing spell so no Muggles or witch or wizards or Dementors can invade my privacy XD well, I'm gonna miss my cat Bob very much. I don't know how life would be without him, it must be painful. I'm gonna miss the comfort of home, where mom is always there to help me with anything and everything, where dad is always there to bring me anywhere I want to go, where my little sisters are always there to create a huge mess for me to clean up.

Well I guess this is not the time to feel sad or down. It's time to move forward and be clear with my decisions. I am an adult now *in denial adult, to be exact* and I have to be more serious about building up my life, my career and map out my plans for future undertakings. Ok, I don't know what else to write. I'll come back when I have more interesting things to share :) thanks for reading! Bear with my lack of updates at the moment okay?
