I've been having the urge to do online shopping recently and came across some online merchants that provides interesting shopping experience. I really like the idea of these 2:
1) VanityTrove - http://www.vanitytrove.com/sg
Have you heard of them? They basically source for the latest skincare, beauty, body & hair care goodies and put them in a box and send to your doorstep monthly! Isn't is great to receive some surprises every month right at your doorstep? Some of the products are in sample size and some are retail size. But the good thing is, you are able to try alittle of everything. Aww.. i love this idea.
With a monthly cost of $25, you can receive the box of goodies right at your doorstep! I've just subscribe for their 3 months editions. So i will receive the surprises starting next month! Will blog about their products when i receive them.
You can check it out at their website listed above. :)
2) Happybox - http://happybox.sg
They have a type of box:
1) Beauty Delights HappyBox - $59
2) Wine & Dine Happybox- $169
This is a perfect gift idea for your friends, family, love ones etc. In each box, there is a Happycard that you need to activate. This card will act as payment to the merchandise that you patronize. For each box, there are a booklet to show you the different merchant they've partnered with and what services you are entitled to. You will choose 1 to visit and pamper yourself.
The Beauty Delights Happybox will have 16 different merchants for you to choose from! From saloon, facial, nails, makeup products to spa... you can choose 1 of them to visit! And looking at the services they provide, it definitely cost more than what you paid for the box. Super worthy!
The Wine & Dine Happybox will have 9 restaurants to choose from. From 3-course to 10-course meal, you can choose any 1 to visit. Perfect idea for couples or to buy as a gift for our parents. And also, i'm going to purchase the Beauty Delights Happybox for my girlfriend to try! Will update once i've receive the box :)
So with so much surprises a Box can bring, it will definitely make your day & month a even better one. I am so looking forward to receive my Box of surprises!!
Have a good Thursday! 1 more day to weekend!

New Addition
I've not been updating for quite awhile.. As i'm busy doing researching for my Japan trip this coming October, still deciding on the number of days to spent there.. (excitied!)
As my title speaks, yea.. i've a new addition to my family. No, it's not a baby.. but a new cat! This cat seems fated to be with us.. we got her when i'm visiting my mum at her place. That fateful night, while we were waiting for a cab to go home, we saw her jumping out of a bush. She just kept meowing at us when she saw us. Knowing she's hungry, we decided to feed her the pizza we've got. I would say that it's "Love at 1st sight" for Tim. He immediately asked if we would want to bring this cat home! I was like.... "huh? how to? just carry her home in a cab without a carrier??" And so, we sat there for awhile and think whether to bring her back. And we say.."Ok, if she were to follow us to the road side while we wait for a cab, we will bring her back.." And the rest is history...
So we carried her back home in a cab! When we reached home, as usual, both Xiao Bai & Mika is curious about this new addition. We brought her to the guest bathroom and let her stay for the night. The very next day, Tim bathe her and put frontline on her to prevent any ticks from infecting the other 2 cats. As she meow so much.. we decided to call her: "Noi noi" = noisy cat. I know it sounds cliche.. but we feel that this name suit her well :p
We've also brought her to the vet to de-worm and to ensure she's in pink of health. Turn out that she is still a kitten, not more than 1 year of age. After clearing the checkup, we brought her home to settle down with the other 2 cats at home. The 1st few days were bad, Mika and Noi Noi don't seems to get along too well. They often growl & hissed at each other. As usual, Xiao Bai been the old and calm cat doesn't seems to bother too much with this new addition. As long as she don't go and disturb him, he's alright with her. As times goes by, thing seems to get better between the 2 female cats. And now, 2 weeks down the road, both of them are like best of friends. They would play with each other, chase each other around the house, play hide & seeks, share their food and sleep together.
Noi noi seems like a perfect playing mate for Mika. Since both are young and full of energy, they do keep each other occupied throughout the day. And Xiao Bai will just sit there and watch them play (as usual).. And i think he's glad that Mika don't bother him too much since she got Noi Noi to play with. >.<
Meet Noi Noi! -->
She likes playing with my ipad....
That's all for now.. have a great week!

The Ugly side of Humanity
So much for the saga over City Harvest Church these 2 days. Till now, I will say I'm still proud to be part of this family. Before you come in and start to give your precious comments or criticizes, pls hold your mouth 1st.
The fact here is, human just can't wait to celebrate the fall of another man. They celebrate and make a big hoo-haa when a prominent man fall and discredit all the contributions he has made to the society. How convenient it is to join in the crowd and start to make all sort of ugly comments and remarks. Did you see the times where we contribute and help to make the society a better place? Where were you when lives were impacted and changed? Where were you when families & marriages were restored? Where were you when we feed the poor and help the old? How easy is it for people who are not part of the family to start making all sorts of 'noise' and remarks when they are not even playing a part in what we were doing.
Do you even know how many schools were build? How many orphanages were build? How many people (the young, the old, the poor, the sick, the homeless) were blessed per week by our ministries? Do you know how many broken people were restored by the works of the ministries? There were no news coverage in Singapore on what we've done throughout Asia doesn't mean nothing was done at all! Get your facts right before you start to post all sort of ugly comments.
Will it be nice if i start to post ugly things about your family when the truth is not even out? How will you react? How will you feel when you're discredited for all the goods that you've done?
So, think before you comment. Because what comes around, goes around.

Product Review: 6-day BRAND’S Tangkwei with Essence of Chicken (Part 2)
This 2nd post will be sharing what's the verdict after taking the chicken essence... And the result is...
I'M LOVING THIS!! During the 1st day of my period (16th July), surprisingly, I don't feel much cramps. I started the day with one pain killer, and that's all! I no need anymore pain killers throughout the day. I do feel abit of discomfort, but it's bearable. It's not those that will keep you toss and turn in your bed & hoping that the pain will just go away. I am able to go out, do things as per normal, without feeling much discomfort. And best of all, I do not need to rely on any pain killers throughout. It's amazing! I am so happy coz i can finally stop relying on pain killers and best of all, not having to tolerate the cramps.
On the 2nd day (17th July), I don't feel any discomfort at all. Everything is as normal. No pain killers, no cramps.. Awww... How I love this chicken essence. :)
If you are those that experience really bad cramps during your menstrual cycle, I would really recommend you to try this product. It really did ease my pain during those period and I'm definitely going to store them up before my next cycle!

Product Review: 6-day BRAND’S Tangkwei with Essence of Chicken (Part 1)
This blog is going to have 2 parts to it as I'm going to write about a Product Review on BRAND'S new product made specially for the women. Yea, all you women, pay attention to this cause I know that it is going to help you.
So, BRAND'S has come up with a new product - BRAND'S Tangkwei with Essence of Chicken. This is especially made to help women who are facing premenstrual discomfort.
"Tangkwei has been used by generations of women to help ease the discomforts experienced during their menstrual cycle. Rich in iron, magnesium and vitamins B1, B2 and E, it is generally used to improve blood circulation and replenish blood loss. It is also beneļ¬cial in relieving your body from tiredness."
I've signed up for the trial program for this new product and in return, I'm going to blog about how this product had helped me in my menstrual discomfort. I'm one of those many that feel extreme discomfort during my menstrual period (especially during the 1st and 2nd day). I've been relying on pain relief pills all these while. It can be so bad that I take as much as 6-8 panadol menstrual pill per day. So yea, I decided to give this chicken essence a try. And as instructed, I took the chicken essence for 6 days before my menstrual starts. (From 11th June - 16th June). I like to have this with hot water, so normally I will pour the contents into a glass and add a bottle of hot water to it. (amount of hot water to add = 1 chicken essence bottle) This will helps to dilute and make it easier and nicer to drink. I like to take it during the day as it seems to give me energy throughout the day. The after-taste is not as strong because it is diluted. So for those that don't like the herbal smell, don't worry, you can dilute it to your acceptable taste. Hot one definitely taste better then room temperature or chilled. So go on, give it a try.
On the next post, i'm going to share if this really helps to ease my discomfort during my menstrual cycle. Stay tuned!
