It is the most beautiful place i've been so far =)) And i'm super grateful i get to go for this trip!!! Cox the whole time i'm happy!!! Everyone who went on the trip is super nice and caring and considerate and FUN!!! =DDD

Here's a list of everyone!!! Wendy, Mike, Sophie, Alaric, Cheesie, Huiwen, Gillian, Bryan, Shuyin, Binbin and Eekean  =D You all can go see their blogs for more pictures!!! Cheesie de blog got bikini pictures of the girls one =X Lolol. I help her bribe you all. Haha.

HERE WE GO =DDDD
Okay first, a camwhoring shot of myself. Dinner with everyone while waiting for our flight.
Sitting outside the gate and thinking that my legs looks nice O.O Hahaha ^.^ This angle everyone's legs also look nice cox all the muscles and fats are hanging below lol.

One shot with all the vain girls in it. Minus Cheesie cox she's flying straight from Malaysia!
The book Eekean brought to show all of us, we had some giggly time looking at our own and at our ex-es and at each other's sex life LOL. BinBin, Shuyin and Huiwen sitting together. And everyone also is seated with someone they know.. Except..

Me. I'm placed one isle away with strangers. Okay lah, not say very foreveralone. Lol.

Arrived in Phuket ^.^ And there's airport transfer arranged by Andara. First thing we were offered when we get in, is cold towels that smell oh-so-nice to freshen us up after the flight and bottled water. Even bottled water also got cold and not cold one. Super considerate i must say =D
Arrive at Andara Resort and Villa! =DDD That's Huiwen looking happy with the wreath of flower the friendly lady at the concierge put on for us to welcome us.
Chilling at the lobby is relaxing enough. Really. Got sound of water and a super comfy couch. Plus they served us welcome drinks + wet towels again. Love already.
Me and Sophie ^.^
ME and Huiwen. I didn't bother to PS these pictures cox it's already so blur. But i scared if i don't post Huiwen will feel hurt lolol. So here, Smelly and Dirty!
I was lying down like this and stupid Huiwen say take top model pictures. So after a few failed attempts.. I manage to get the picture above. Lol. Still quite fail actually.
Chin down better. Lol. Got emo ma?

Group shot!!! =DDD
First thing that greeted me when i step into our Pool Suite.. Is Huiwen's butt. Lolol. She's like "OHHH~~ OH MY GOD!!! LAZY SUSAN!!!" Siao one, like she and Susan hen shou. LOL.
The Pool Suite.. Is so gorgeous and spacious.. I think i can live there forever!!!

They even have FULLY FUNCTIONAL KITCHEN!!! Completed with baking oven, dishwasher, stove, and ALL the plates, bowls, utensils, knives, pots, everything lah!!! You no need to bring anything but yourself!!!

You see the living room common area? Outside the window panels.. IS OUR PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL!!!
It looks something like this but more spacious in real life! =DDD

The house also has music systems you can choose to play their zen-ish music (which Eekean always blast in the house lol) or you can dock your own music. Best is they have cable tv and there are soooo many channels to watch!!! =DDD

No no. BEST IS..

THEY HAVE FREE WI-FI ALL AROUND THE RESORT!!!!!!!!

Freaking awesome!!!!!!!


There are 3 bedrooms. Twin bed, double bed and Master bedroom with attached bathroom. Of course Alaric + Sophie gets the master bedroom since they are a couple ifyouknowwhatimean.jpeg

I don't mind them having the master bedroom BUT I AM VERY JELLY they have this bathtub!!!!!!
Comes with the shower room also. Wo hen jelly.
Mini bar and the coffee/ tea is complimentary one!!! Sweet. Oh not as sweet as all the complimentary fresh fruits!!! I don't know i ate how many mangoes and grapes and longans!!!!
Went over to Wendy's villa and it's a Penthouse! It's the same thing as Pool Suite except the pool is on the second level. Cool much!!! They cooked dinner and it was pretty yums!!!!! The vege especially!

After dinner we played cranium and actually before we actually played cranium, when Wendy was explaining how to play Cranium, cao Sophie already proclaim "I don't want to be in the same group as Qiuting!!!" HAHAHAH. Eat shit, Sophie.

Then never mind. Finally the group is split into Shuyin, Cheesie, Wendy, Eekean and BinBin, one group.

Me, Sophie, Alaric Huiwen and Mike, one group.

And they were saying how unfair it is that Mike is in our group cox he knows a lot about American-y stuff which will help us win the game. And then smelly Huiwen say,

"But we have QiuQiu in our group!!!!!!"

And everyone is like YEAH MAKES SENSE. Lolol. Everyone agree that me being in the group is a liability *stares* Lolol. Pui!!!

And we play and my group win, and we play again, and my group win again. Haha. By the way, losing group pretend, and never do any of the two forfeits they are supposed to! Boooo!

It was a super super great night ^.^ I went to sleep really happy that night.
And i bought this floral romper from F21 cox Wendy say we can all get the same thing to wear and act chio for sleepy time at the resort. Haha. So must camwhore to make the purchase worthwhile.

That's all for now!!! There's like 340 more pictures =.=" I'm still sifting the better ones up.

Botox is love

This is a scheduled post and when you're reading this, i'm still soaking in beach water and getting sunburnt under the lovely bright sun in Phuket, i think.

I'd be back tonight with lotsa camwhoring pictures cox all the vain bloggers will be there lol.

This week i got nothing else to share cox i have no chio camwhoring shots lol but one thing.

BOTOX.

I didn't thought much of it and use to think it's for old people =X

And i watched Christmas with the Kranks before (trailer video here lol see 0:45 onwards), and that's about all the impression i had for botox.

But i was talking to friends about how i had to cut my fringe although my fringe will suck cox it'd be so puffy and dry and curly, i sitll have to cut it becox i wanna cover the lines on my forehead especially when i lift my brows for my eyes to look bigger to act cute in some pictures O.O Lol.

So they told me DO BOTOX LAH.

And so i when i was in thailand, i did botox!!! =DDD

Actually i could have done it in Singapore, i doubt it'd be hard to find a sponsor or get a one-off free trial or something lol. It'd cost about $600 per syringe and you might need more than one syringe depending on where you're gonna do lah.

Some count by per unit and you have to do like 20 (for forehead) - 48 units (for jawline) or something like this, and each unit will cost about $15 plus-minus. I have no idea how they count really. Do your own research if you wanna do in Singapore please don't ask me cox i won't know thank you!

So anyway!!!

I did for my forehead and jawline. And the doctor i went to used Allergan.

The price very standard one.

Forehead - 2500baht  ($109)

Area above and between brows - 2500baht ($109)

Jawline - 7500baht ($326)

Not sure if it's good or bad. Like if your jawline only need very little botox leh? Then you still have to pay the same price as someone who looks like spongebob.

I didn't do my brow and between becox i very scared i look like the video i show you above lah! Lolol. So i thought okay, try out forehead and jawline first. If anything happens, just use hair to cover. Lol.

In total the doctor opened and used 3 syringes for me. My forehead lines, he say.. "Very sereerd, it been like deed for a long time" So i think he meant "Very serious, it's been like this for a long time".

TROLLOLOLOL. Let me laugh here cox i couldn't laugh during consultation!!! Don't want him to get pissed then later anyhow do lolol.

You may say the lines on my forehead are really bad but please do not cross the line (lol) and say i'm ugly becox that'd be out of line (lolol). Hahaha. Learn from Cheesie one, being punny.

So back to botox. Yeah the doctor is not kidding i think. I ask my elder sister to do the raise eyebrow thing and i asked my gf to do, and yes they have lines but really not as bad as mine O≡O

I guess for all the years i try to act cute and look up into the camera, chin down, eyes open big big, this is a problem what i have to face now. Fair enough.

So i did! It was REALLY fast and the pain level is like.. No biggie. Given that i did acupotomy. I WAS SO SO SO SO SO happy when i was going through the whole botox procedure. I kept thinking to myself, "Bitch please, that's it? 我是见过世面的人" Lolol.

Here, results.

I raise my brows to open my eyes really wide and big. NO FUCKING LINES AT ALL.
STARE HARDER BIGGER. Still no lines. Freaking awesome.

And then it's the botox for jawline. In case you don't know what that's for, put your hand on the sides of your jaw, bite (clench your jaw together) hard, do you feel a muscle popping up when you bite?

Botox will relax that piece of muscle and it will not show up for a while until you firm it back with your daily usage of the jaw. So the doctor say to maintain, chew lesser nuts, don't chew gum, eat food that's easier to eat without having to chew too much.

The girl who do my facial for me before show me her pass picture before botox and i totally flipped. Becox she was spongebob i swear. She say after her friend told her about botox and understand why her jaw muscle make her face look so huge, she totally stop chewing gums (a habit she love, and she say it's Malaysia so gums are so easy to get everywhere) and only eat food like beehoon soup and hor fun/ porridge.

She NEVER go for botox. The muscle just weaken and became smaller over time. Defug. I don't know to believe her or not, that she didn't go for botox. But you can try. She say she use her knuckles to massage those jaw muscles everyday also.

And i did see on Taiwan beauty program where the beauty teacher taught the ladies to use knuckles to massage and apply a fair amount of pressure on the jaw muscles everyday. Like as often as you can, for 10minutes at least.

Good luck. But if you want quick fix. Botox ftw ^.^

No worst picture you can find of me. Lol. Kidding. There are worst. Picture of me clenching my jaw.

Me now, clenching my jaw.

I feel like my left side went down more than my right side. Right side still has this block of muscle that went down for sure, but not as much as the left side.

But the difference of before and after is only visible in pictures, WHEN I CLENCH MY JAW. In real life i look the same since i'm not constantly clenching. Lol. So the difference is not vast i feel. Didn't wow me as much as the forehead one.

You can go to any doctor who uses good botox brand locally or in Thailand okay. Do your own research ba! I also research a bit then decided to go to this doctor one.

I don't want to introduce to you all and if it doesn't do you good, later you look like kena stroke, you blame me. Lolol.

Good luck to you. Have fun researching, i just wanna show you the rough price and of course, to show off my forehead now.

So i paid $435 for 3 syringes (not sure if he used finished the last syringe but he don't use also wasted cox he can't use it for another patient anyway). And in Singapore i'd have to pay $1800 given that one syringe is $600.

So if you happen to head thailand for a holiday, you can consider doing if you think you need ba! =D

See you when i'm done with photoshopping our pictures from Phuket! ^.^

Too happy?

Is there a thing as being too happy?

I feel this crazy need to express how happy i am everytime. Cox i really feel TOO Happy!!! I don't know what to do about it except to say "I AM SO HAPPY!!!"

I ask my bf why am i feeling so happy, almost all the time.

He say "Just like Tiffany lor. She's a happy dog. It's just her, she's just happy. No reason to it"

Lolol. Not a very good explanation.

And then i got quite a few Formspring questions (yes i got a formspring =X You can shoot questions HERE) asking me why i am always so happy.

I also wonder, why would anyone ask me why i'm so happy! Thing is.. WHY NOT?! Haha!

And the truth is.. I'm not always happy. I mean there are times when i get very frustrated and have sudden bout of anger and i really feel like i want blood. Like when i cannot get a cab, like when people cut my queue, like when service staffs are rude/ lazy and purposely ignore me, like when people KEEP asking me rude questions on Formspring haha.

But then i try to remember things i learnt from The Secret (thanks to Wendy and Mich for sharing!) and i try to control my thoughts. Quickly turn them around to think of positive, good things. And it'd all be better. Good things will happen when i want them to. The Secret say it's the Law of Attractions =)

And i think why i'm happy generally, other than being positive, i'm also very contented. Contented and thankful with all the things i have, the people i love who love me back, the people i am nice to, who are nicer to me back, the things i put heart in doing, earns me praises and attention hahah ^.^

And i feel EXTRA confident and happy when i know that even though life is so great for me now, it's only gonna get better. Even better, yes! And i'm excited to know how great it's gonna get exactly! ^.^
Yesterday i was having dinner with Ming Zhou, Shiyu and Kah Wei and we were just talking about some stuff back in school days and they reminded me of a super gross incident lolol.

Sy and Kw was saying how awesome it is i can't laugh much now and they think that if i can forever be so shu-nu (demure) it will be great. Cox they didn't like me in year one (although we are in different classes during year one!!! These judgmental people lolol) cox i always laugh so super loud. Like in the foodcourt they can hear me laughing from far far away and that i'd hit the table repeatedly until i calm down. Hahahaha. Why i so easily amused i also don't know!!! Lolol. 我的笑点超低的. Lolol.

And having friends like Yong Ming and Ming Zhou didn't help. They are just SO FUNNY!!! And Pei Xi, Kristie and myself are such great joke topics. LOL. Joo San leh.. Nothing wrong with her so i guess she's just enjoying the jokes on us. Lol. This post and this post i wrote with all their faces in it, you can go reference and read it if you're keen! ^.^ So happy i met them from Poly!!! No cert, no shit, but got 7 good friends out of it, not bad!!!

Anyway the gross incident that Ming Zhou reminded me of, other than the fact that i always remove my shoes during lecture and during class..

Like this. Found this shot taken by i forgot who. LOLOLOL. I AM HOPELESS.

Other than this.. Ming Zhou say.. The worst thing he ever remember me doing.. Was that one day i went to the toilet to shit halfway through lecture.

And then i came back a while later. And i sat down. And i ask him.

"Eh.. Do you smell shit?"

He say don't have.

So a while later. I ask him again, "Are you sure you cannot smell shit?"

He say no and ask why. And i say

"Becox there's no toilet paper in the toilet just now"

.......... K i think we're done here. If you choose not to come back to this blog ever again, i'd understand.

HAHAHAHAH. I KNOW!!!! I WAS SO GROSS. I AM SORRY TO MYSELF, I REALLY LET MYSELF GO. Lolol.

So from then on, all my friends think i'm dirty, unhygienic, smelly, germs-infested, gross. I can understand!!! I fully understand why!!! 我原谅你们对我的偏见!!! Haha.

So anyway. I had such a great evening. Felt SO super thankful i met great people like them =) My life is filled with nice people omg i am so lucky!!! For real!!!

And becox i practice the wise 'teachings' from The Secret, and i strongly believe in it, i know they are just gonna be even nicer to me, and that i'm gonna have more nice people in my life =D

Last time when i want something, i might sometimes feel unhappy that why is there so many things that i want, and then sometimes i question and have doubt of ever being able to have it.

But now i know that whatever i want and believe that i will get, i get eventually =)

Alright, just a post to blurp out why i am so happy. Haha.

By the way how do i look last time? Hahaha. Got chio not? The puma jacket you see is they share-share send me on my birthday one ^.^ I really am very loved.

SMRT Makan Session - Holland Village

Sponsored post

First of all, THANKS TO THOSE WHO CAME for the makan session! I hope you had fun like i did!

And also thanks to SMRT for making a session like this possible and convenient for everyone staying anywhere in Singapore!

Have you explored all the stations along the Circle Line and find out about all the attractions, happenings and uniqueness of ALL the stations?!

I have yet to, too =X BUT I WILL!!! Eventually! =DDD Cox every station is soooo conveniently located why am i even mentioning it, it was MEANT TO BE convenient. Good bye cars. Hahaha.

In case you didn't realise, although i cab a fair bit from time to time, i do take trains and LRT REALLY often!!! I used to be really crazy about getting "The Prime Seat" hahaha. The seat in the middle-est of a row of seats. You know.. Further away from the priority seat, the better O.O Lol.

So far other than ALL the interchange Circle Line sits in, i've only been to Bras Basah where Clicknetwork office and filming studio is, Esplanade to find my brother-in-law at work, Marymount to get dog supply!

The Circle Line system map!

Looking at all the places i frequent, given that i stay in ulu Punggol (=X), everywhere is far to me!!! So i'm happy that the Circle Line help me save A LOT of time and MONEY!!!

Having explore some of the stations that sit in the Circle Line and was impressed about how convenient it has made my life, i was really excited about visiting HOLLAND VILLAGE for makan session =DDD
Circle Line makes our life EXTRA FINE! =DDD I made that line up. What do you think? Lolol.
One more and off we go!!!
Us marching towards the food place from the station! Took less than 3 minutes to get there. And with all the varieties of shops along the way at the underpass of the station, i really would also love to spend more time inside the station O.O Got aircon some more!!! Lolol.
Love this shot!!! The group look so excited and happy haha.

There we are!!! Heard the food is pretty awesome so I WENT WITH EMPTY STOMACH! Hahahaha. Eat ALL the food! =D Address is 211 Holland Avenue #04-01, Holland Road Shopping Centre
Everyone a bit shy initially lah, so there sat at four different tables. One shot with each table!
Me trying to be boss and take order hahaha. The Nuffies were doing it but i offered to help, can get to know the participants that day also! So LAI, YAO CHI SHEMO. JIANG JIANG JIANG. Lolol.
Actually it's really a bit confusing but i can do it!!! With Lydia helping me, i can! Haha.
My determined face and Melissa encouraging smile. Lol.
The Nuffies caught a shot of this and it reminds me of the Too D**m High meme. Hahaha!!!
Amanda, Melissa and Jayne all get a heart here (Lydia would have one too if she's in the picture! Haha) becox they all are super love that day. Help me so much lah!!! A lot of the pictures you saw here are all taken by them. Thank you thank you!!! You guys are the nicest! =))
Chatting like a boss O.O Most of the participants have REALLY exciting profession!!! 
How's my hair! =D My fringe is finally braidable haha. The accessory also cute hor? From Daiso KL.
After a while i find it tiring i have to shout across to talk to different tables so i say we JOIN TABLE!!!
See, join liao everybody look happier haha.
Food was awesome!!! I tried the Salmon and the risotto for the chicken, it's =OOO Yums!!!
What's there to snap about food if there's not a picture of me with the food. Lolol.
Everybody nomming off.
Dessert time. And this picture looks perfect and it's taken by me. Excuse me, Brad. LOL.
There's also a short quiz to see how well the participants know about the Circle Line!

The Nuffies packing all the goodies SMRT prepared for us into goodie bags!!! =DDD

One of the items inside the bag, out of many! Says I CIRCLE LINE =D Cute!

Later on most of us went on to camho in the garden while the rest continue chilling out and chit-chatting. I love the camhoring part!!! Hahaha! Everyone's so sporting one!!!

It's so nice to think of how we could have so much fun that afternoon! All of us came from different areas, different fields of profession and are of different age etc.

We are all different but what brought us together that afternoon, is SMRT.
And what have been bringing us around, is still SMRT =D
Thank you SMRT for bringing us together! Group shot before we end the day!
With the Circle Line, going around is made easy!!! ^.^o
A little bit about Holland Village if you're dropping by!

With many restaurants serving cuisines from different countries, you'd have a hard time deciding which restaurant you wanna hop into when you're at Holland Village!

If you're more into local flavour and would like to have a equally great meal with a wide range of food to choice from, there's also a food market! I especially love the Carrot Cake (Cai Tao Kway) there!

Love froyo? There's frolick for you after meal! ^.^ There are many cafes/ casual dining bistro etc, so go down today with a few of your good friends and have a good time! TAKE THE TRAIN AH. Haha!

Oh oh, spot Provence bakery? I LOVE THEIR BREAD!!!!!! SO SOFT AND FLUFFY ONE!!! They have the best mini chocolate croissant!!! Also their mochi cheese bread is nice too =OOO Want.
One of the many rows of bar/ bistro.

I know one of the main reason people love Holland Village is the night scene. Not the boisterous loud kind, more like the cool chill out and enjoying company of your friends kind.

But the traffic on the road can be really frustrating at certain time! To get there to Holland V after work could be a dreadful chore, traffic is bad, taxi fare is expensive. To get there on a Friday night, or on a Saturday night, traffic is equally bad cox that's when everyone heads there.

And then to go home pass 11pm, there's extra charges if you cab.

Ah then if you drive? Worst. Have to bear the traffic. And you gotta watch what you drink and if you drink at all, how? Troublesome!!! No drink-driving please!

BEST IS? Haha yes, take the Circle Line to get there.

For example, it only takes 14mins to travel from Bishan to Holland Village via the Circle Line! Before the Circle Line is up, you'd need to take at least 31minutes! Just like that, you saved 17 minutes of your life! Haha!

Or if you say in Tampines, instead of spending 40 minutes to get to Holland V, if you take the Circle Line you'd only need 31 minutes! Awesome!

Save time, save money. Be safe after drinking. You're going to be a successful person. Hahahaha!

I captured this on a random afternoon at the Holland Village carpark. See!!! No bluff you one! Hahahaha! Driving there IS mafan too! Imagine the parking situation during peak hour of the day?
So that's that! Go explore the Circle Line ba! ^.^

I'm gonna head Tai Seng station soon! Heard there's an awesome roasted meat shop just beside the station! A reader told me the Xio Ba (roasted pork) there is the best in Singapore =O WANT.

Okay enough about food food food! If you're more into shopping, here is the list of shopping malls along the Circle Line ^.^

I'm happy for the people who have to brace through the morning traffic on the road! And also happy for the students who have to make their way to school at anytime of the day! Now with the Circle Line, everyone can sleep more O.O Have more time to get ready, and best part is.. SAVE MONEY ON ERP!!! =DDD

Hope to bump into you one of these days on the Circle Line!
Do the Okay sign at me if you see me. Hahaha!
