EOS lens

I've always wanted to try contact lens from online purchase coz they come in many different colors and designs but i've also have been skeptical about the lens..

But anyhow, I've got the lens from a join purchase with Gin in an online spree.

i bought Blue and Pink flower lens.

Pink flower lens w.o degree and adult series Blue lens

I've poped open the glass containers from convenient sake * i dun wan to be opening those aluminum air tight seals in a rush*

The lens aren't as soft as my freshkon lens.. That means i cannot wear them for long hours. And, i seriously doubt that the lens can last me for a year...=( i also doubt the eye enlarging effect.. The circle are only 14 mm wide...

A little disappointed...

But i really love the designs.

Adult series Blue lens

Random

before i start.. i wan you guyz to knw that this is NOT A EMO post juz something that i feel really strong abt recently..

i've been watching a really outdated taiwanese drama *coz i dun have a cable point in my room!=(*

Well.. like everyone knw, Taiwanese drama has got pretty faces in it to attach viewers BUT!! i'm not watching it coz of the actor and actress' face!! it's the storyline and the actor's VOICE!! YES, VOICE!! so soft and gentle! *sound so pervert*

Like any other Taiwanese drama, the storyline is base on a fairytale like love story where a handsome prince will meet and fall in love with a normal gal.

BUT the whole point of this post is that as i watch the drama, i came to realize how much i've change through the years. Of course, everyone grow up and change their mentality on some issues, especially in love.

But have u ever think back and recall your initiate meaning of love??

Everyone has got their own meaning to this word.

Some may think it's happiness.
Some may think it's fearful.

Rmb the first time you held your partner's hand or your first heart break.

Watever it is, everyone tend to forget the initiate meaning of love.

As for mi, i use to be a strong believer of love. Love, where by both parties give mutual trust, love and respect.

But this mentality has long changed.. i no longer can feel the kind of heartache or sweetness.. no longer can give the similar amount of trust and love.

Perhaps that is what they call grown ups love..

hmm... guess this drama has got too much of unrealistic expectation in my brain....

but i kind of found the answer to why i consistently ask for something..

...有可能就是因为她在你身边, 但是却没有足够的安全感..

=) make a guess which Taiwanese drama it is....

EXAMZ!!

=( i'm suppose to finish my exams already.. BUT DUE TO stress and LAZINESS!! i fail and deferred 2 papers to JULY!!! which is next mth!!

=((((((((((((

i'm fucked!!!

Short getaway to Batam: The Food!!!

Everyone knows.. if we go to Batam, we must eat seafood!!! But first timers do not knows where...Try Googling seafood in batam or something like tat and u will find loads of reviews and recommendation on Golden Prawn 933 seafood.

Well.... i believe there is MORE than Golden Prawn 933 in batam.. and here are some of the makan stuff i got or found in Batam.

Let's start with... Breakfast in the Resort.

Our first breakfast in the resort was served on Wednesday, one after arrival... hmmm.. Wednesday.. no CROWD at all! so no BUFFET but mi and bf didn't knw.. we awake up early and made our way to the seaview restaurant.

We gave our coupons to the staff, found a nice place to seat down *actually we can sit anywhere coz we were the only ppl apart from staffs in the restaurant!* and made our way to the table where we expect food to be BUT!!! empty buffet settings greeted us!! only bread, butter and jam were available =(

we were a little disappointed but didn't make noise coz the bread was super soft and nice!

THEN, surprise came after i finish one slice of yummy bread *lucky mi coz my bf finished 2 slices already* haha!...

A WHOLE SPREAD of noms!!! noodles, soup, harsh brown, fried chicken, baked beans, egg and fruit!!! =s

Breakfast was... super good!!!! and wasted coz we can't finish!
*sad*

After breakfast, we went for our city tour and lunch was served at the all so raved Golden Prawn 933.

Online reviews recommended this seafood restaurant BUT it wasn't good at all!!!!!

half eaten food!! I'M ON A TOUR RMB!!
*Blogger behavior is taboo to them!*



Some of the food i manage to snap b4 kanna mess up

Next!

Home made Kuih Lapis (Layer cake)!

Factory in their own home!!!

They have 2 different kind of Kuih Lapis.
*top, original and bottom, with plum*

hmmm... the Kuih Lapis we bought wasn't as nice as the one given to us for tasting.. =( and they told us the Kuih Lapis is bake to order.. i seriously dun think so lor.. coz i saw the driver sneaking some cakes to the van O.o! and when they pass the cake to us it's COLD!! tsk!

Anyway, food can also be found in the shopping centers of batam *of coz!* and here is one of the must have...

A&W
*dunno why we dun have it in singapore!*

and some local products for my folks

Finally, A place where i can say YES! u guyz should go n try!!! Windsor foodcourt! BUT, i have to warn u guyz abt something!!! the hawkers there will hog u like Piranhas fighting for one tiny piece of meat!!! I'm not exaggerating!! Just politely reject them and i believe nothing will happen...

Anyway.. the food there is good.. *much better and cheaper than Golden Prawn!*

818 Live seafood
*naming stalls with number is weird!*

FOOD!!!

AND YES! before i end this post!! i not very sure if it is true but the prawns in batam are seriously small!!! According to the tour guide, ppl in batam like smaller prawns therefore bigger prawns are exported to singapore!

check out the size of that prawn!

Ok.. so much for batam.. do tell mi if there is any place i should go to on my next visit to batam..

NOTW: Sassy festive RED! PLUS winner for the L'Oreal Open Eyes Chrome Intensity Contest!

First!
NOTW: Sassy Festive RED!!

I love red!! i have red shoe, red bag, red phone cover, red cam and now i have RED NAILS!!

It's really hard to find a true red color when it comes to cosmetic products coz red comes in many different tone. Similar to cosmetics, red nail color maybe common BUT to find a red that makes mi admire my fingers every 2 mins... almost impossible..

It always too dark or too light OR just too boring..

TILL i found Dear Santa from OPI.. it's actually from the holiday wish collection last Christmas.

Red with shimmers!!! just like the ornaments found on the xmas tree!
i totally when crazy over it....

ok my pic didn't do justice to the nail color so... this is wat i found online

Chio-ness!!!

NEXT!!!

Short getaway to Batam: City Tour!!!

Back to my batam trip!!! very late post.. =(

anyway, The City Tour.....

included in our 3 days 2 night package, we are able to opt for a free lunch at the resort restaurant or to go on a trip around the island. Of coz, we choose to go for the city tour coz it was our first trip to batam AND the tour include a seafood lunch!!! *calculative mi!ha!*

168 City Tour =)

So after our super breakfast on the 2nd say of arrival, our very friendly tour guide met us at the lobby and FIRST STOP!

Asia's largest Laughing Buddha Temple.

The Laughing Buddha temple

Guan gong temple

The main hall

Goddess of Mercy temple

Hmmm.... nothing much if u are not a Buddhist.. so second stop..

Ralph Lauren..

Didn't take much pics coz i'm afraid i might get kicked out. Anyway, the price of Ralph Lauren in Batam is much cheaper compared to Singapore coz Ralph Lauren actually manufacture some of their stuff in Indonesia.

BUT!!! i didn't get anything coz their credit card machine is NOT WORKING!!! *FK*!

=(

Anyway, after my not very fruitful trip to Ralph Lauren, we would bought to a home bakery where Kuih Lapis (Layer cake) are made..


Then, LUNCH TIME!!

Lunch was served at a restaurant that is very highly recommended online BUT!! it wasn't that fantastic! * online reviews =s sux expect mine coz i dun wan to kanna ppl throw bad egg haa!*


After lunch, we went to Batam Miniature House where 24 or 25 or 26 mini building of Indonesia's traditional unique architecture are housed.

and the first mini building located juz behind the enterance

Some of the mini buildings

After the mini stroll across the miniature park, we went for cultural show... hmmmm.. i dun think.. it's cultural show... the pics will explain why..

Also, if by change u r also there PLEASE give the performers some tips *even if it's Sing $2 dollars* coz they dun get paid.

warrior dance before the action start

* First performance peel coconut with mouth*

*Eating HOT Coal*

*Glass EATING!*

*Jump over flame hoop*

The city tour ended with a trip to batam center shopping mall. it's basically a shopping mall ..something like hoilday inn in JB malaysia. Nothing much at the shopping mall =(

So as promised, this is the City tour post of my batam trip.

Next, Batam post- Short getaway to Batam: The FOOD!
