Mummy Day Celebration ‘09

Thursday, May 14th, 2009

I had this planned out, all prepared to shower her with love and surprises.

My mum takes care of the entire family, in and out.

Despite being the love one that I would have to give it all with my heart,

this benevolent and lovely lady makes me wanna do even more,

just to watch her smile.

As usual, she went: “It’s ok, don’t have to do this, don’t have to waste money on that…”

But seriously, which woman doesn’t?

They just love it yet refuse to admit so. And how can i not understand her?

Because she’s the one who had went through all these pain

to raise me up to what I’m today,

I’m thankful and I always believe that it’s important to show this love from within.

Talk is cheap.

Read the following:

Decided to pamper her with a good Thai massage,

but where else than Sabai-Jai?

Little light bulb came along to interrupt our date.. Hahahaha. Kidding.

P1020369

But this irritating mummy of mine managed to read my mind

and burst the bubble the day before, by saying:

“What plan? Chey. You bringing me for massage right…”

Arrgghhh..

Right, tell me about it man!

P1020365

But hello mummy, you think it’s that easy to defeat me?

MUHAHAHA.

Here’s my little secret up my sleeves that’s definitely gonna send her flying:

Mummy loveeeeee lilies! And the arrangement is exactly what she adores.

This was the least expected because I got the florist to bring it up to the massage parlor.

And just right after she finished changing, I popped this into her face.

I swear, her expression was priceless!

I also sent one of this bouquet to the BF’s mummy!

Called her after the flowers arrive at her doorsteps to wish her happy mother’s day.

Heard from baby that she’s grinning from ear to ear & have placed the flowers in a vase (:

Thai massage has always been my favorite.

My body’s often aching from work and computer usage,

Thai massage stretches and loosen the muscles and thus relieves pain and stress.

After the wonderful massage, we felt refresh and carried on with the date!

Off we went to this fusion restaurant!

Japanese + Westernize cuisines; such awesome combination!

Grumpy baby on the left,

reluctant to have her pic taken as her stomach was grumbling. Hahaha.

P1020426 P1020439

My set lunch!

I like variety and wanted to try more from the restaurant!

P1020449

P1020457

Joey and mine came with dessert. Tea’s included only in my set.

Thus I gave my ice cream to mummy instead (:

P1020466

P1020461

As expected, the food was satisfying.

My recommendation?

The chicken. Both were so tender and practically melts in the mouth!

And I meant it, literally!

After all I had researched and went through all comments/reviews

before I finally made up with my decision.

It was certainly worthwhile (:

This is the key that they gave to me at the end of our lunch,

for me to make the payment at the cashier.

Such innovation isn’t it?

P1020467

We then summed up the entire day by playing with Joey at the kid’s arcade.

Ok, more of me playing with her rather -.-

I managed to burn about 400 calories as stated by the game.

WAH! I was totally perspiring after the session la!

Gorgeous mummy dearest!

P1020549

So pretty with the flowers (:

P1020527

Happy Mother’s Day!

I love my Mummy!

Add Ons:

After which, headed for didi-korkor’s wedding dinner!

We called him didi korkor because he used to be the youngest kid of the lot,

until we were born.

Everyone called him didi, but we’re younger than him.

Thus that labelling, lol.

Congrats to you Didi Kor Kor! I hereby wish you a bissful marriage (:

With my favorite cousin; Kelly!

We even sang a song together for the married couple; 勇气

P1020557

Add Add Ons:

Specially dedicated to the one who said I would look crappy

without makeup + photoshop + lenses,

and insisted me to take a pic of my nude face.

I think I’ve done this several times before but since you requested,

I shall satisfy you , no biggie (:

So here is me again with absolute 0 makeup, 0 contact lens, 0 photoshop.

You wanna see dark eye rings? There you go.

Looking at these bared face’s pics remind me of getting my brows touched up.

Bahs, too lazy.

I’ve beautiful parents and sibings, gorgeous girlfriends, wonderful friends,

sweetest readers and the hottest BF ever, who loves me.

Seriously, what’s less?

I’m happy being who I am (:

How to care for your hair

Tuesday, May 5th, 2009

**YOU STAND A CHANCE TO:

Simple and easy steps that I do daily

for the maintenance and care of my precious hair!

1st step:

After washing my hair with shampoo and conditioner,

I would towel it dry and leave it to air naturally while I do up my makeup.

Some of my girlfriends would dry their hair with the fan. Lol.

Whatever method you use, avoid blowing it with a hairdryer

as it’s pretty damaging for the hair.

Once it’s partially dry, I would then brush it carefully,

avoiding the braiding portion of my extensions.

It’s important to brush my hair to prevent my extensions from tangling.

Here’s basically how I would do it, brush it on the front first, then the back:

2nd step:

Sometimes, I would straighten my hair during bad hair days;

when it’s not that straight and frizz-free.

I’m quite a perfectionist and would pay attention to small minor details,

so it’s important to me that my hair is always well kempt.

However, before straightening your hair,

always remember to spray and comb through your damp hair

with L’OREAL studio HotStraight thermo straightening spray!

It straightens and protects you hair to provide silky result!

Make sure that your hair is dry before you utilize the tongs.

Finally:

To ensure the smoothness and the shine of my hair,

the application of leave on conditioner (Non-rinse hair treatment essence) is a MUST!

It repairs my hair and prevents knots+ tangles while creating a beautiful straight hair!

Always apply from your hair roots & comb through your hair with the remaining essence.

But please avoid the scalps!

IMG_3470 IMG_3540

Bonus tip:

Remember to do hair treatment every other week!

For me, I go with “D.I.Y” method.

I would apply moisture treatment mask every once a week to deeply repair

and straighten my hair. It also helps to prevent breakage and split ends!

Alright, I’m stuck.
I should have been doing
something more fruitful than this:

Today, my parents gave me a shirt from Banana Republic for my birthday.
It looked like one I had bought for myself a couple of days earlier
but I thanked them and went to hang it in my closet.
An empty hanger hung where I placed the shirt I had purchased.
They gave me my shirt for my birthday. FML

Someone Responded: The recession is for real.

Today, I went to Walmart with my mom.
At the check out line I was eating a bag of chips as my mom bought her stuff.
I inhaled while eating and I started to choke.
The cashier asked me if I was okay. My mom just waved her hand, and said,
“Sometimes she does that for attention, ignore her.” FML

Someone Responded: lmao that’s like someone dropping on the floor
having an epileptic seizure and then their mother going it’s ok,
she likes to fantasize that she’s a fish out of water.
.

How the hell do people come up with such witty responses man.
Can’t stop laughing! Someone help, I’m addicted.

Sunday, May 3rd, 2009

SOS, I can’t quit laughing.

From fML: Today, my mother and I went to Wal-Mart to buy pads.
I suggested I get tampons instead, so that I can go swimming at my boyfriend’s cottage.
My mother then goes to the nearest store employee and asks,
“Excuse me, if my daughter uses a tampon, does that mean she is no longer a virgin?”

Someone responded: “Your mom is too naive!
You should tell her, you haven’t been a virgin since you were 9. Fight the power”
