Multiple product applications is always an issue for me when heading out in sunny Singapore. In this humid and hot weather, there is two must-haves in my outdoor kit to protect my skin : sunscreen and mist spray.This makes my bag very bulky constantly as there are two bottles ( yes, bring your sunscreen out as it is <b>VERY</b> important to reapply constantly)<br />
<br />
Lucky for ladies,<i>BIODERMA </i>just made it a whole lot easier for us. <br />
Introducing the <u><b>BIODERMA 2-in-1 moisturising anti-UV mist (Eau de soin SPF 30)</b></u>, a sunscreen mist that comes in a convenient size as well! <br />
<br />
To make the deal even sweeter,<i> Bioderma</i> introduced suncreen <u>AND</u> anti-oxidant complex into your usual hydrating mist routine to create a sunblock mist which aids in both <b>hydration</b> and <b>anti-aging</b>.The <i>Bioderma Hydrabio Eau de soin SPF 30 PA +++</i> is the only mist in the derma-cosmetics category to have anti-aging properties so far!<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Can we just take a moment to appreciate that skin glow?</span></i></div>
<br />
Here are the 3 key features in the products: <br />
<br />
<b>- SPF in water</b><br />
Suncreen that requires no spreading, invisible on skin and usable over makeup, plus a non-sticky finish. <i><b>Cellular Bioprotection</b></i> is added into the formula as well to prevent damage to skin immune system and preserves antioxidant reserves. <br />
<br />
<b>- Deeply hydrating water</b><br />
Highly purified water powered by <i><b>Aquagenium patent</b></i> to help repair skin barrier, retain moisture and restore skin's water circulation. The patent uses apple seed extract and Vitamin PP as their main ingredients.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Apple seed extract benefit: Anti-aging</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Vitamin PP (also known as Vitamin B3/Niacin): Healthy skin</span><br />
<br />
<b>-Diffusion technique</b><br />
Equipped with a superfine spray, the product comes in an air-free pump bottle equipped with a gas-free atmospheric spray to do their part in environment protection. Formula settles on skin like a veil and does not stain clothing. <br />

<i><span style="font-size: x-small;">X-brand mist test</span></i></div>
<br />
As someone who is very particular about the mist particles for absorption rate, I did a mist test on my phone surface for comparison.<i> Bioderma</i> truly has superfine mist which helps when it comes to absorption of products for the skin, especially when you are on the go which makes this a perfect hydration mist. <br />
<br />
For our sensitive skin readers, you will also be glad to know that the following product have the following features as well: <br />
<i>-Hypoallergenic</i><br />
<i>-Non-comedogenic</i><br />
<i>-Paraben-free</i><br />
<i>-Alcohol-free</i><br />
<i>-Fragrance-free</i><br />
<i>-High tolerance</i><br />
<i>-No stains</i><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Another thing to note, is that during March, it's exclusive to Watsons at $16.90 (save further 15%) before it rolls out islandwide on 1 April at $19.90. Can be purchase at Watsons' <a href="http://www.watsons.com.sg/hydrabio-2-in-1-moisturising-anti-uv-mist-(eau-de-soin-spf-30)/p/BP_78373?search=BP_78373">eStore</a> .</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>

Despite visiting several countries around in Asia like
Jakarta, Taiwan, Japan and Korea; one place that I seem to have not visited is
Penang, Malaysia where the good food hails from. Johor Bahru is a location I
frequent the most in Malaysia, and I have been to Kuala Lumpur, Malacca,
Genting and Cameron Highlands as well. <br>
I may have visited when I was younger, but memory fails me. <br>
<br>
As a someone who has been fascinated with being in front of the camera and
creating pictures behind the scene, there is one place which I would love to
visit to in Penang as well. <br>
<br>
That would be the famous Penang Camera Museum (aside from all the good food and
religious places). </div>

Who still remembers the film rolls we have to use in the
early 90s when things are not digital yet? <br>
I still remember how my mom would remind the curious little me not to open up
the back so that we do not lose any pictures. I happen to value my pictures
more than curiosity so it worked really well, which I later found out the
reason for when I grew up and got my own instax camera. </div>

It has been a while, peeps! I've never got to finish my blog about my eating trips in Korea because I was so busy with work, and straight after I quit, i flew in the same direction again to Japan (=A=)/ I have been busy, I have ate really well, and I have gained 6 KG in the past 1 year (Q-Q) What is this scary lack of discipline? <br>
<br>
Despite that, being a glutton for good sashimi, I've picked up another awesome invite from MOF (Ministry of Food) to their new concept store, Kaisen Tei. <br>
<br>
I would give you tons of information about this place, and the company but really, who cares? We are all here for the food. All you need to know is Ministry of Food serves good food.<br>
<br>
Kaisen Tei : Chirashi-don concept, casual dining. <br>
That being said, for those who do not understand " Chirashi don", "don" is basically a bowl of rice, and "chirashi" is a variety of ingredients. Pretty much like the Japanese version of Economy rice. <br>

Upon arrival, you will usually be greeted by the warm staff ( like every other MOF establishment), but do be patient if it is during crunch hour. Menu will be displayed outside of the diner and there are copies promoting their signatures and mains as well. <br>
<br>
This is a SELF-SERVICE location as it promotes takeaways as well for busy individuals, so do order at the counter first before getting comfy if you are not in rush. <br>

<br>
Soaked in a light shoyu-based seafood sauce, and arranged with 4 types of seafood, this dish stole my heart (or tummy) for the day. <br>
Seafood mains include salmon, maguro (tuna), mekajiki (swordfish) and hotate(scallop). Accompanied by other ingredients such as tamagoyaki (egg), cucumber, ikura (fish roe), sweet pickles, sesame seed and spring onions. <br>
<br>
The sauce compliments the seafood as it is not heavy, and emphasizes the taste of the fresh ingredients. However, if you are not a fan of the raw ingredients, you may skip to customization or a "hot" main. <br>

<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i>From left to right: Negitoro don(fatty tuna), Aburi Salmon don(torched, semi cooked), Customized don.</i></span></div>
<br>
Next up, are a few other don choices that was served to us as well ( you can bet your ass that I've put on another KG after this tasting). <br>
<br>
I only had a slight tasting of the negitoro, so I could not really give much of an opinion. The negitoro was good, but you can listen of the ramblings of the kitchen guy who loves negitoro more that me at his post <a href="http://gossipingkitchen.blogspot.sg/2017/03/kaisen-tei-by-mof.html">HERE</a>. <br>
<br>
I did not touch the aburi salmon as it belonged to another blogger, but I do have a good amount off the custom don. <br>
<br>
Unique to Kaisen Tei, the food pros understand that not everyone likes what is made for them. Since not everyone has the same taste, Kaisen Tei has it covered. <br>
<br>
2 different choice of main, 4 Types of sauce, 8 types of seafood, 11 toppings. ENDLESS COMBINATION. <br>
<br>
You will get to select rice or salad, depending on your hunger/diet at the moment. <br>
<br>
4 types of sauces which is, if I can say, each of a different world. <br>
<br>
- Kaisen : Light shoyu seafood sauce<br>
- Wasabi Yuzu : Tangy and refreshing yuzu sauce with an almost negligible hint of wasabi ( I hate wasabi, if I say it is good, you better try it.) <br>
- Wafu : Onion based sauce (goes well with almost everything)<br>
- Yakiniku : Red meat sauce on the heavier side (If you dislike the freshness of the raw fish, you can select this)<br>
<br>
After you select everything, there is an option to "Aburi (torch)" your selection as well so that you do not have to eat a completely raw dish if you want to try the freshness of their catch, and yet reserved about the taste. <br>

Curry Rice~♡<br>
<br>
Last but not least, the curry menu. However, what I want to bring your attention to is not the curry, but the pork katsu. <br>
<br>
Soft and tender, juicy and crunchy. If you are a fan of pork and japanese curry, this is one katsu you must try (Warning: very filling). <br>

<br>
Everyone is always concerned about the pricing, so here you go, the order chits. In my opinion, it is quite affordable for a good bowl of fresh sashimi and rice and you get to choose within your budget. No more breaking the bank to have a good bowl of don. <br>

In case if you are wondering why the bowls and the cutlery are disposable, as mention right at the start, this place promotes takeaways for busy people in the town area but provide seats to cater to diners who would like to enjoy their dons fresh out of kitchen as well. I think it is a very good option for people who changes their minds at the very last minute to takeaway too, no waiting time! Just cover your food and bring it with you.<br>

One of the displays that has not changed, but a lot has changed in Everland. Things that do not require cash now requires kachings. Free hologram shows are now chargeable, it makes me so very sad. <br />

It was one hell of ride, even I was slightly shaken.10/10 will ride again~~ <br />

After all those screaming, everyone was so hungry so we had some chips,meat, mac n cheese. It was nothing spectacular really since it was fastfood in a themepark.<br />

After that, i was convinced by Brandie to company him through the Haunted Maze, it was some haunted house with a background story of a clinic used for illegal experiments.<br />
<br />
When i was 20,i swore off haunted houses. 6 yrs later, i think i should stick too it. I spent like 90% of the time hiding my face in his hoodie.<br />
<br />
I got a bunny clip as a reward though ♡♡♡<br />

It was a fun day to be sharing on the day itself, but my day ended in tears as I ope ed my facebook page to find out Chiaki has left us. Chiaki/debbie/autymn joan, yuuto's faceup artist, a chirpy pretty lady left this world for a better place today. <br />
<br />
I cried so hard on the train back that I had no mood to blog. <br />
<br />
At least she doesnt have to suffer anymore.<br />

Day 2 in Korea! <br />
<br />
picture is of a mobile cafe with a Mi-nam(pretty boy) in suit~ mojito in the morning anyone?<br />
<br />
Today's itinerary is Gwang Jang Market and Dongdaemun~~ as expected, it isn't exactly a fulfiling trip if travelling with a huge group along with elderly people. Grandpa was being grumpy cos he had to walk, alot. <br />
<br />
GwangJang Market is a place with food,but it is like... 20 over stores owned by different people selling the same 3-4 kinds of food over n over. <br />
<br />

#fail meokja shot (a "before" shot contributed by Brandie)<br />
<br />
I had redbean porridge for the first time and it was a true Gintoki special ♡♡♡ <br />
It was really filling and you could actually adjust the sweetness to your liking with sugar, and it doesn't start out as sweet at all, just bland redbean goo. The game changes when you get the sugar in \0/ <br />
<br />
After GwangJang Market, we scoot over to Dongdaemun. They were selling fake Copahengan bunnies EVERYWHERE but I couldn't find a mint colour one for Cookie. <br />
<br />
Dongdaemun is a awesome area for wholesale EVERYTHING. <br />
From towels to fabric to clothes, everything comes in bulk purchases in the old shopping galleries. <br />
<br />
We bought boots but that will come in a shopping post next time. <br />
<br />
Went back to our area in gwancheol dong and had freaking awesome Taco Bell for lunch. It is kinda sad that there is not many, if not none, in Singapore anymore. Eating it makes me wonder why I did not try it when I first saw it really. <br />

This was downright wicked. Melted cheddar and mozarella in the middle of a wrap and taco shell with bulgogi in it (he had the beef one but not my type)<br />
<br />
After that, it was true blue food coma.<br />
He was out for about 2 hours, I was out for about 3. Just couldn't stay awake after all that food. <br />
<br />
Dinner was homecooked, so not too convenient to do a #meokja photo cos elderly was around..gosh. The inconvenience of having them around, but i love 'em cos you pretty much don't have much time to travel with your grandparents really. <br />

So some might have know that I've just landed in Korea this morning and it is NOT a smooth day, and I may or may not have caught a cold from the full day of rain.<br />
<br />
Will be trying to do posts as much as I can as well for this trip hopefully.<br />
<br />
That aside, I've been watching "Let's Eat" and "Let's Eat II" frequently as some might have known from my facebook as well cos I was complaining the highly irritating main characters.<br />
<br />
Inspired by Shiksha-nim, Goo Dae Young, I am going to do a series of post mimicking his way of presenting food~~~<br />
<br />
1st meal in KR!<br />

<br />
It really doesn't make sense that my first korea meal is Japanese, but withthe heavy rain and lack of brollies, we could only head nearby to this family restaurant, かつや (katsuya).<br />
<br />
I swear there isn't much famous expensive katsu in Singapore that can match up to this humble family restaurants. Ordered curry cheese katsu and it was so damn good, and it was not oily or greasy at all like most katsu made in Singapore. It was definitely easy on my stomach, and I finished my meal in record timing.<br />

We scooted off to a restaurant bar after a nap to recover from a long wet day.<br />
<br />
Best name for the bar: BROS<br />
<br />
I was pretty amused and we had pepperoni pizza which was alright but a gamechanger was ordered as well. <br />
<br />
Cream Dokbokki(rice cake)~ more like nacho cheese dokbokki to me though. <br />

<br />
It has been awhile since i wrote here. I left this blog with the happiest feelings and I came back here with the worst. <br />
<br />
The worst thing you can do while getting over a breakup is reading tons of love stories, love manga and looking the lovely couple pictures on the net. All those kisses and hugs that is missed, and the warmth you feel upon your back, face and neck. <br />
It is especially unbearable when you are coup in your room alone on a weekend after a busy week. It just feels extremely cold and soundless, even now that I am typing. There is only the whirling of my fan and the sound of my fingernails clacking on the keyboard. <br />
<br />
But yes, it has been 73 days since we broke up. The feeling of sadness has never left me for long. <br />
It gets hard for me, and i m sure for people who have the break ups too. The places we laughed at, both our rooms hold so much memories. <br />
The one who can really feel the most relieve is the one who doesn't take every moment seriously. <br />
<br />
They always say that no one ever loses in a game, but I've believed otherwise. Someone will always lose out, and the one who usually does is the one who loves too much and is very afraid of losing the other.<br />
I've never lost this badly, and it hurts too much. <br />
Sometimes I just want time to stop, so that I can stop feeling anything. <br />
It is never easy to push away the one you love, and ones who can do it are usually so brutal. <br />
<br />
As much as I wish for your happiness every night, I wish for mine as well. <br />
It is becoming undeniable that a huge crack has been shoved in between us, but it was only because one of us failed to make the effort to pull it back together. <br />
It is always hard to push back land with cracks but it was never impossible. <br />
<br />
I hope that someday, you find what you are truly looking for because I just feel that I am slowly fading away. <br />
Isn't it just fine like that? <br />
<br />
People are born with a purpose, and to be needed by someone. <br />
When the whole world stops paying attention to them, they cease to exist even if they are breathing. <br />
<br />
It is just a bramble of words I am typing out without really thinking them through because it is just so painful everyday. <br />
I am going to start blogging here again as much as I can because there are just some things which are not appropriate for a business website. <br />
It was never right to begin with, so why does it hurt when it have to end? <br />
<br />
I guess somewhere inside me, I knew it wasn't going to work out when it all first started because it was never suppose to be like that in the first place. <br />
I can't wear the rings you give me anymore without tearing up. <br />
It has been such a disappointment, as always.

Hi everyone,<br />
<br />
<br />
From today onwards till January, my blog is going to take on a different country. Those of you who follow on me on FB should know by now, I am heading to Japan. <br />
<br />
<br />
I am currently writing this without connection, so this isn't a live on the spot update as I usually do. It is currently <b>3.50PM 13/11/2014 THURS</b> and I am on a plane to kansai, with my lovely boyfriend asleep and wrapped in the new trench coat i gave him; buried head in my knitted hat to block the lights. <br />
<br />
<br />
This year has been very kind to me. I had a great boyfriend, great jobs and help from everywhere. As well as new friends. I am very thankful as well, that this year, is my virgin trip to Japan and a long one as well. <br />
<br />
<br />
Throughout my whole life, I've been wanting freedom and to break away from my family but the fact is I love them more than I really feel. <br />
<br />
<br />
Why did I say that? Because I cried. <br />
<br />
It has been a very hectic Wednesday for me (I just recall I forgot to email migme for some event I did, that is how hectic it is) <br />
<br />
<br />
My dad came home and drove me to the airport in the jam without a single complaint because I had 40kg worth of checked luggage and about 23kg worth of carry-on. (The spectacular world of non-charged weight for laptops) My mom followed as well(well-dress might I mention). <br />
<br />
<br />
We had dinner together for once more before I set off for Japan, and I am glad they did because I really wanted to dine with them. Yasa dropped by as well, he was the only friend who came to see me off. <br />
<br />
Mom wanted to cook, but we messed up the timing bad(me and Locke thought it was 1am flight but turns out it was 1am at KLIA2, not CHANGI). I felt so sorry, because I know she wanted to cook for me. She knows I love her cooking and I will miss it a lot. <br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/111%20JAPAN/IMG_20141113_052410_360x480.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo IMG_20141113_052410_360x480.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/111%20JAPAN/IMG_20141113_052410_360x480.jpg" /></a><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">(Typing this I started tearing up again, and here is a great picture of sun rising in japan from the plane again) </span><br />
<br />
<br />
Before I check in, I gave them one last hug. I've never been away from home, at least not for so long. It was realization that I got what I wanted, but not without some sacrifice. <br />
<br />
Mom hugged me back tight, and gave me a kiss. She is worried for her girl, but she lets me go. <br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">(Yep, crying now while writing) </span><br />
<br />
<br />
I lost it in the DFS, but i held back the tears.<br />
<br />
Locke got some stuff from the DFS, and we got entitled to a travel-exclusive mickey/minnie toy. I picked a mickey in some bright US-y flag clothes..Locke said it is for me, but I say I want mommy to have it. The colours are lovely, it is cute, I know she will like it.( I'll upload the pic of the mickey some other time, it is really adorable)<br />
<br />
<br />
We got on the plane and as we roll away from the airport, I asked Locke if I will be able to see my house from here when we fly. He smiled and say no. As we took off, I saw the lights and I started sobbing really badly. I missed my mom already, I miss my dad, I even missed that punk of a brother. <br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/111%20JAPAN/IMG_20141113_050531_640x480.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo IMG_20141113_050531_640x480.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/111%20JAPAN/IMG_20141113_050531_640x480.jpg" /></a><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">(random insert of Locke asleep on the plane at about 3~4AM with my hat over his eyes as shade)</span><br />
<br />
I have never ever thought twice about missing them because I will usually be back in a week from my trip or their trip (cept for the time when my dad spent months in Paris,France training for work). The whole experience is so different now. I am off for two months, it might sound short but it is a very long time as well. I am missing Christmas and New Year with my family for the very first time. No more complaining how bad the streets and malls are stuffed on xmas, no more laughing at NY parade show together. Just this year, it is different. <br />
<br />
<br />
More importantly, no more nagging to clean my room. I will miss that ALOT . (and I left my room 1/2 done, it is an improvement but she will nag me hahaha) <br />
<br />
<br />
TL;DR: I am homesick already. It might be better from here but I miss them. <br />
<br />
I want to thank them for everything they do for me, and I really do love them no matter how stubborn I am. <br />
<br />
<br />
I've booked my ticket home today(even though it was by force cos they wont let us through KL if we don't show them a return trip ticket) <br />
<br />
<br />
54 days more back to the family I love, back to my dearest mommy. I miss you so much... <br />
<br />
<br />
===<br />
<br />
<br />
The night sky is really pretty over the ocean. <br />
<br />
This is the first time I see countless of stars.<br />
<br />
There was a shooting star, I made a wish. <br />
<br />
I wished to take a picture, but my camera is stuck in the compartment and boyfriend's camera is hard to get out.<br />
<br />
My phone is practically useless in places without proper light source. <br />
<br />
So here is a picture of the bright blue~<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
This is an eye-opening year. <br />
<br />
<br />
<u><b>4.29AM 13/11/14</b></u><br />
<br />
p.s. I am hungry and thirsty. I think the air service crew is slacking in their room cos everyone is asleep hahaha <br />
<br />
<u><b>about 6AM in japan</b></u><br />
<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/111%20JAPAN/IMG_20141113_090554_360x480-1.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo IMG_20141113_090554_360x480-1.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/111%20JAPAN/IMG_20141113_090554_360x480-1.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Arrived at KIX, immigration was really rude. Got shouted at and a pen thrown at me.<br />
<br />
There was 101 conclusions but we came up with the facts that<br />
<br />
1. I am a chinese(race only).<br />
<br />
2. I am not japanese.<br />
<br />
3. Too many cheena piangs hold sg passports<br />
<br />
4. Nobody likes cheena piangs.<br />
<br />
After that, everyone was quite polite and kind. Just the immigration I guess.<br />
<br />
<br />
Even though I was smiling in the picture, it was taken after Locke calm me down. It had been a tiring day of flying and I was emotionally unstable and very very upset after the KIX incident. <br />
<br />

<span style="font-size: xx-small;">A photo we took during the first 1/2 of this year. </span><br />
<br />
<br />
This post is probably going to be the least favored post of this year, because everything in here might seem very absurd/insulting/lack of research/inexperienced <i>whatever</i>. This is purely my own opinion, you can write yours,<b> you<u> do not</u> have to agree with mine</b>, but I am writing it anyway. <br />
<br />
This year, I witnessed the most disgusting amount of people getting married around me. <i>Not that getting married is a bad thing, it is in-fact, <u>a great choice in life. </u></i><br />
Entering a marriage, you take up responsibilities that you never had to deal with in the earlier stages of your life. Which pretty much includes the family you are going to start, and your partner's family. <br />
<br />
Why did I use disgusting as a term then? Because the reason for getting married is so wrong. <br />
You ask, what is right or wrong? Isn't right and wrong determined by social norms? If we aren't wrong, you did mentioned before you do not conformed to them right? <br />
<br />
Yes. I do not, but let me tell you why. It is because I have my opinions about what is appropriate and what is not. <br />
<br />
Example, <br />
<br />
Society thinks you cannot perform well when you are deviant <i>(e.g. having coloured hair, tats,piercings). </i><br />
Reality: We have too many successful accounts to list. <br />
<br />
Society thinks that you cannot commit to a long-term partnership by jumping into it right away. <br />
Reality: They are right. <br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
Throughout my whole life, I have seen people made up and break up. How many have survive the challenge, and how many were left brutally hurt or even exist in this world?<br />
<br />
<b>Let me list a few marriage types which really upsets me: </b><br />
<br />
- Shotgun marriage<br />
- Spontaneous marriage<br />
- Marriage of convenience(highway version)<br />
<br />
<br />
I know most of you are going to be shouting at this post, saying:<b> It is none of your business! Let them do what they want.</b> <br />
Sure, they have gotten married, I have given them my blessing but nothing is going to stop me from saying MY piece in this blog. <br />
A quick google trip will tell you how bad divorce rates are in Singapore now as well. Guess what? Mostly young adults, like you and I (ranging from 20-25). <br />
Yes, marriage is known as a piece of paper nowadays, but it is still sacred to some people out there. <br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Most common: <u>Shotgun marriage</u> </b><br />
<br />
Pro-life, or not? Single parent, or not? These are the decisions that people will want to avoid dealing with. Thinking that they are responsible adults, couples entered marriage, swearing to be responsible for their actions. Sounds dainty, yes? <br />
<br />
NO. Couples like that are one of the most irresponsible parents I have ever seen. <br />
<br />
Have you ever asked yourself, am I ready to take on this bitch for the rest of my life even if she screams at me 24/7 due to lack of rest from taking care of the baby? <br />
I bet not, most of the guys only have the righteous mindset: I love her, I am going to be responsible. <br />
<br />
Responsible for what? For food,yes? Wait till the day when you realise you are not ready to settle down, you have tons of things you have not done, or even think that she is not the one. <br />
<br />
MAN UP, BE RESPONSIBLE. MARRIAGE ISN'T YOUR SOLUTION. Your solution should have come before getting her pregnant. That doesn't mean the girl is off-hook, have you thought about what will happen if the man you decided to marry isn't as cooperative as you thought they will be? <br />
Want to cry over the baby everyday? Going to regret about that precaution you have never took? <br />
<br />
Unless you are telling that you guys have been together for over 3 years and above, I really do not see how getting married is being responsible. It isn't. <br />
If your marriage goes well after 10 years, congratulations to you. <br />
If it doesn't, how much stress is it going to cause the kid? <br />
<br />
Sadly, I have seen too many single parent family. It is upsetting because the kids are the one who suffer the most. <br />

<b>Second type: <u>Spontaneous Marriage</u></b><br />
<br />
OH I LOVE YOU! I LOVE YOU TOO! Let's get married!<br />
<br />
No harm done, no kids, <i>usually done in the <u>first year</u> of dating</i>. Yeap sure. <br />
It is assholes like you, which puts a dent in humanity. Happily ever after in fairytales have forgot to include the rest of the story. Kids, bills, responsibilities. Don't say yes, only because you think it is so romantic and nothingelse matters in the world. Reality check: everythingelse do matter. <br />
<br />
If you love each other for another 50 years, I have nothing to say. <br />
<br />
However, some people take longer than a year to let their true colours show. Hateful words start flying, hurt, discontent, divorce. <br />
If some couples takes more than 5 years to know each other, I don't see how you can understand 20 years of a single person in 1 year. <br />
<br />
When divorce/breakups happen, the "victimized" party will start blaming the whole world. Do you understand how fucking difficult it is to talk to such a person?You prolly dont, because you left him/her for quite some time already. <br />
<b>Love is not an equation for marriage. Love is just factor. </b><br />
<br />
<b>Last type: <u>Marriage of convenience(highway version)</u></b><br />
<br />
By highway version, I mean break up with the one you are with and getting married to a rich guy. <br />
You are rich now, congratulations, scum. <br />
I have nothing to say to you. <br />

<br />
<br />
After surviving such an intense blabber of bad language, most of you might be wondering: Why the hell is Sochii so upset about things that do not concern her? It is not like she knows anything about getting married/divorced anyway.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Answer: </b>Because it annoys the shit out of me, and I just wanted to say it. It irks me to listen/see ugly breakups, but it saddens me the most to see a divorce. <br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">AND WEDDING DRESSES. what a waste of pretty dresses, if you are just going to split after this. It is no longer memorable or magical, because YOU SPOIL IT. (okay maybe not but you can judge how annoyed I am). </span><br />
<br />
<br />
At this era, unless you can really devote yourself solely to one person, please save everyone the trouble and don't think about getting married. <br />
Work your ass off, buy a car, buy a house, buy an island. Those are much better things to do than ruining a person's life in the future, or even 2. <br />
<br />
<br />
===<br />
<br />
In any case, if you are curious: <br />
<br />
1. no, I am still attached and happy. <br />
2. no, he hasn't proposed and i forbid him so. <br />
3. no, we will not be getting married anytime soon because we want to spend that time to buy a car,a house, a dog, a cat, whatever.(AKA Project Get-our-shit-together-first)<br />
4. yes, I love him, and he says he do as well. <br />
<br />
<br />
Disclaimer: if you are well-above 28, I don't really give a fuck what you do anymore because you are at the age where you are either breaking or making it (aka beyond medication). I wish you all the best when you walk down that aisle, because it is about damn time that you find a door to another chapter of your life. <br />
If you are below 28, I would say I care, but I couldn't care that much more because you have never seek advice from me, and will prolly never. All I ask is, think twice before you say yes. They say it doesn't hurt to jump into it, but I would say from experience: Jumping into anything without much thought hurts a lot. You would have forgotten about how much it hurts, think back now, you will find it a very helpful advice. <br />
<br />
<br />
No matter what kind of marriage it is, <b>I love weddings</b>. I give great blessings to all couples and wish them a lasting marriage till death do them apart(or maybe even death can't keep them apart) , but the fact that it may/may not bite you in your ass one day, we will all live to see it... well, at least internet will. <br />

This might be one of my longest review for a movie, but he wrote it so well that I couldn't bear to take out any part of it, nor disagree with him ♥<br />

==========================================================================<br />
<br />
Hi, <br />
<br />
I’m a freelance film-maker, producer and DP. <br />
I’ve worked previously on Hollywood post productions during my time in Double Negative, a London based company which does visual effects for major films. <br />
<br />
Still, I’ve no idea why am I being tasked to do a review for a Hong Kong movie, but never mind. <i>(me: because you wanted to watch it, and I have no idea how to write it)</i><br />
<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/Migme/movie/IMG_20141028_191905.jpg.html" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo IMG_20141028_191905.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/Migme/movie/IMG_20141028_191905.jpg" height="320" width="240" /></a><br />
<br />
The movie’s English title is probably one of the worst conversions from Chinese to English I’ve seen this year(一个人的武林). I meant, there could have been better names.<br />
Not that I’m one to comment, since my Chinese will probably get me kicked out of China. <br />
<br />
I’ll share a little bit of information I know about the two major names from the movie, Teddy Chan and Donnie Yen, the director and protagonist respectively. <br />
<br />
Teddy Chan, not a major household name in South East Asia, directed one of my favourite Hong Kong movie 5 years back, 十月围城(Bodyguards and Assassins). I personally love that film because of the historical attributes, and how he made everyone(almost) in the all-star cast died in the movie just for 孫中山 to hold a meeting in a place where all Qing assassins were after his head.<br />
Till this day I never figure out why 孫中山 has to hold a meeting there.<br />
<br />
And the action spy movie 紫雨風暴(Purple Storm) which made Daniel Wu a household name rather than Teddy Chan himself. <br />
<br />
Donnie Yen, a super major household name in Asia(and probably the rest of the world), someone whom I’ve been a huge fan of since he appeared in 黄飞鸿之二男儿当自强(Once Upon A Time in China II). He famously fought against Jet Li using a wet towel which destroyed walls, wood, brick, bottles, humans, westerners, like it was some kinda of laser beam. <br />
<br />
Here’s a link to refresh your childhood memory: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-yjEGet_DY">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-yjEGet_DY</a> <br />
<br />
With another two movies 殺破狼(SPL) and 導火綫(Flashpoint), which he incorporated MMA moves such as German Suplex, Rolling Armbar, Northern Lights Suplex, Backdrop, it was like watching WWF in a Hong Kong movie, my fanboy mode for him just ignited. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/Migme/movie/IMG_20141028_191736.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo IMG_20141028_191736.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/Migme/movie/IMG_20141028_191736.jpg" height="299" width="400" /></a><br />
<br />
<h3>
<b>一个人的武林 <br />
Kung Fu Jungle<br />
</b></h3>
Okay back to the movie. <br />
<u><b><span style="font-size: large;">Major spoilers, so do take note. </span></b></u><br />
<br />
Donnie Yen is Hahou Mo, a martial arts instructor who is currently serving time in a Hong Kong prison for accidentally killing an opponent in a fighting match. <br />
It wasn’t clearly stated in the film, but sometime before being judged for his manslaughter, he was apparently the best fighter who won every match till killing his opponent. <br />
<br />
Fifteen minutes into the film, the typical Hong Kong police thing happened. <br />
<br />
There was a murder, and police were at the scene of the crime. <br />
<br />
A Ferrari flew like 50 metres away from the dead body, making it sound like some sort of supernatural incident happened when the murder occurred. <br />
The victim was a drug dealer, some badass crime lord, and the police just seemed to deem it as a revenge crime. <br />
<br />
Oh cool, I was expecting a vigilante movie, I love those movies. <br />
<b>But hell no.</b> <br />
<br />
Insert Miss Detective Luk Yuen-Sum(Charlie Young), a hot MILF-looking police inspector who rides a Class 2 Ducati look-alike bike, and who seems to <u><i>always</i></u> have natural perfect hair after wearing a helmet.(me: yeppp, he rides a bike, he knows)<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/Migme/movie/1066copy.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo 1066copy.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/Migme/movie/1066copy.jpg" height="266" width="400" /></a><br />
<br />
She doesn’t seem a bit troubled by the fact that the Ferrari is planted in a tombstone position and the body is flew like a mile away, but troubled by the fact she needs to solve this murder ASAP. <u>Okay. </u><br />
<br />
So apparently Hahou seems to know what was going on in his prison cell, and starts a deliberate prison 1 vs 17 fight to get her attention. <br />
Movie’s first real reason for a fight. <br />
<br />
After getting her attention and getting her to visit him in prison, Hahou unravels that the victim who died wasn’t because of a hate crime, it was because he was a previous boxing champion. <br />
And demands his release so he can help. <br />
<br />
Luk Yuen-sam wasn’t convinced at the fact, and did a research of the names that Hahou said out during the visiting and Hahou himself. <br />
<br />
Just about this time, another former fighting champion got murdered. <br />
A kicking champion. A name that tallied with the list of names that Hahou mentioned. <br />
<br />
So next thing we know, Hahou is helping the investigation team.<br />
<br />
The story continues with more investigation into the murder, and it is revealed that the murderer is killing experts in an order; Boxing, kicking, grappling, weapons and internal. <br />
<br />
As the investigation team rushes to the next victim, a tattoo artist being murdered by a tombstone piledriver on top of some building, Hahou suddenly saw a glimpse of the murderer mocking at him from an angle which no one saw, and chases after him. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/Migme/movie/065copy.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo 065copy.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/Migme/movie/065copy.jpg" height="245" width="400" /></a><br />
<br />
And now since Hahou was busy chasing after the suspect, he took the chance to abscond anyway and went back to his hometown of Foshan to find his love Sinn Ying(Michelle Bai), who slaps him the moment they met.(me: i predicted this scene!! *laughs*)<br />
<br />
During this period of time when he was in Foshan, and the super-nice Hong Kong police who didn’t bother him at all when he was having a rendezvous in his hometown, Hahou discovers more about the ‘Eaves Swallow’, a pirated version of a consolation prize a loser receives in a martial art competition back in the dynasty days. <br />
<br />
And the whole film seems to forget why the murderer placed the ‘Eaves Swallow’ on the dead bodies later on anyway, so no point explaining what it meant.(me: watch the mobie)<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/Migme/movie/HQ3A8458copy.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo HQ3A8458copy.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/Migme/movie/HQ3A8458copy.jpg" height="400" width="266" /></a><br />
<br />
Now, insert the villain, Fung Yu-Sau(Baoqiang Wang), probably my most favourite character out of the whole movie. A devoted martial arts practitioner, who just wants to prove to the world, and especially to his cancer-stricken wife that he can be the best, and the theory of martial arts is meant for killing, not for show. <br />
<br />
He does some cheesy acts throughout the movie, but his story is strongly backed up by his love for his wife, and the saddest part of the movie when he had to do the mercy killing of his wife because of her suffering.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/Migme/movie/251copy.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo 251copy.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/Migme/movie/251copy.jpg" height="266" width="400" /></a><br />
<br />
His next target was a weapon master, whom Hahou thought it was a harmless duck rice vendor who was the previous weapon champion. <br />
<br />
However they realised that the duck rice vendor had handed over the baton of his training school to his top student, who had his ass kicked by Hahou previously. <br />
<br />
The action star, Mak Min-Yuen(Siu-Wong Fan) was on the target list, and murdered shortly. <br />
<br />
At this point of time, the police traced Fung back to the waterways of Lantau, where they camped there to ambush him when he returns on the anniversary of his wife’s death. <br />
<br />
Some shit happened, and Hahou is accused of being best friends with Fung just because Fung visited Hahou previously in prison and Hahou smiled, best deduction they came out with. <br />
<br />
Okay, so then the police had their ass served by both Hahou and Fung, while they exchanged a little blows here and there.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/Migme/movie/698copy.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo 698copy.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/Migme/movie/698copy.jpg" height="266" width="400" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
The film ends with a fight on a highway where container lorries speed, where Hahou and Fung fight to the death. I won’t break this part lest the best spoilers are, but Hahou wins and lets Fung lives, but of course the villain find someway to injure him. <br />
<br />
Some horrible green screen and compositing skills in the final fight scene, but I guess it’s the fight scenes that’s exciting I suppose. <br />
<br />
It ends with Miss Detective Luk killing Fung with her handgun, and her <i>perfect</i> hair after removing her helmet. <br />
<br />
Seems like the theme is, martial arts can’t win against bullets if it is used correctly, but I think it might be some other theme the director has in mind. <br />
<br />
And then, a happy ending after Hahou is released(he got early parole), and continuing his teacher’s legacy, but this time restraining his fists and not killing anymore opponents, while his school continues to grow and THE END. <br />
<br />
The ending credits was one of the best I’ve ever seen, paying tribute to all the action stars of Hong Kong cinema industry since the 60s, and almost every head of department who made the film possible. <br />
How I wished the movies I’ve worked in do this kinda of credits. <br />
<br />
<b><br />
</b> <b>My Views </b><br />
<br />
Franking, I’m disappointed at Donnie Yen’s choices of movies nowadays after Ip Man. It seems like he’s capitalising on his fame and no longer choosing scripts that’s more fitting of his character. <br />
<br />
Wasn’t his best movie, and definitely one of his worst action choreography direction. <br />
I didn’t like it. <br />
It just seem like he was trying to pay tribute in terms of action choreography and he lost his style. <br />
<br />
But then again sometimes action choreography has to go along side with cinematography. <br />
The cinematography Wing-hang Wong is famous for doing shooting movies back in the 80s, those Yun-Fat Chow movie like A Better Tomorrow, fighting scenes doesn’t seem to fit Wong’s style. <br />
<br />
However, in my opinion Baoqiang Wang’s performance was amazing, it made me wants to go back and search for his previous movies he acted in. <br />
I’ll definitely be looking forward to his next movie. <br />
<b><br />
My personal rate for the movie:</b> 5/10 <br />
<br />
Still the same old solid acting from the cast, just with cheesy scenes, subtle black humour and one terribly weak storyline. <br />
<br />

<b>My boring review:</b> I find it alright for a film, there was a lot of action, quite rushed ( personally i had wished that there were more victims, in order to see more scenes) and well, i was really more impressed by my makeup that day. ( girls will always be girls). <br />

<br />
It was a gathering night of pizza and coke!<br />
<br />
I did not manage to get a picture of the pizza feast cos everything happened really fast, and it was more like a get-together session than a blogger event. Super cosy and great. <br />
<br />
After a brief introduction session, we were treated to 30-45min story session? To be really honest, it was a very interesting story BUT I fail to see how it was linked to migme, so I was rather disappointed in that. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/Migme/IMG_7444.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/Migme/IMG_7444.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo IMG_7444.jpg"/></a><br />
<br />
Here is Gene, giving a story of how he saved Evelyn Chang from a bunch of terrorists, which is prolly a story he have repeated for N number of times. <br />
If you are interested in his story: <a href="http://www.mmamania.com/2014/10/5/6910827/one-fc-21-chinese-commentator-gene-yu-save-family-friend-abu-sayyaf-mma">Saving a family friend</a><br />
And his migme profile if he is your idol : <a href="http://mig.me/u/scorpiojing">ScorpioJing</a><br />
<br />
Don't get me wrong, I think he is great, handsome and I respect him... however I am not sure if the session should be use for telling stories that are not related to migme, afterall, I am there to know more about it. <br />
<br />
After that we are introduced to a beta platform for migme app, it was very interesting and refreshing, great job Angelo!! You are a very good presenter, and I am definitely engaged with the introduction of the app. <br />
I do not have a picture for the presentation but here is his profile, do sent him more gifts for his good job: <a href="http://mig.me/u/angelorohit">Angelorohit</a><br />
<br />
Met alot of friends there too, of all ages. It was really refreshing to not be in an event with a bunch of elite bloggers ( by elite, i mean high traffic bloggers, not the attitude wise). All of us agreed that blogging is for something we love and share, and not solely for traffic, freebs and cash. Which pretty much results us to being more active in social media than our blogs, HAHAHA. <br />

#MIGME is a social platform to link people across Asia,the basics are pretty much the same as other social platforms but they offer more than just socializing. It is currently growing slowly in Singapore, but it is hot in other countries such a phillpines, nepal etc.<br />

frontrow: nat(from migme), me and furfilise( i fail to remember her real name again but she was very pretty)<br />

<br />

<br />
<br />
I had so much fun chatting that night, i have probably rattled two weeks' worth in one night.<br />
<br />
and got myself two very pretty and forgiving friends(cos i talk too much), hurhur~<br />
<br />
Adeline and Sheryl. They even gave me hugs before they left. <br />
When I met my boyfie after event, I was all like " OMG THERE ARE GIRLS THAT ACTUALLY DON'T HATE ME AT FIRST IMPRESSION" <br />
<br />

<br />
The girls really made my night. <br />
I had so much in a simple #MIGUP event. <br />
<br />
edit; Oh yes, before i forgot. A huge shoutout to @derekcai (on migme) , being whisked away by me for a good 10-20minutes and drilled about getting a teaching job in japan. Your tips are really helpful, thank you once again!<br />
<br />
Add <a href="http://mig.me/u/sochiikamiya">me</a> up in Migme as well! See you all there!<br />

<b>Even the tickets are so cute ~~ ♥ </b><br />
<br />
Last Sunday, I was given a chance to visit ALIVE Museum with Locke! I wanted to go there when Chiru asked me if I wanted to visit it with Locke, and knowing Locke who likes art, I really wanted to. However, due to zero income and the need to save for my shopping during my trip to Taiwan and Japan during year end, I've decided not to. <br />
Thank universe for being so kind to me, OMYSG invited me as one of the bloggers to ALIVE Museum for a walk!<br />
<br />
So I was allowed to bring one partner, naturally, I will bring my PARTNER. Heehee~ ♥ <br />
<br />
Here is a little information about our <a href="http://alivemuseum.sg/information/opening-times/">Local ALIVE Museum</a> (originated from Korea): <br />
<br />
<blockquote>
Alive Museum is Singapore’s brand new fun and entertainment destination. Suitable for people of all ages, be it families, couples or tourists, the Alive Museum infuses and modernizes the concept of art into fun and entertainment. Sprawling over 10,000 sqft, more than 80 artwork exhibits are brought ALIVE with 3D painting, shading and drawing techniques that create visual illusions<br />
<br />
Visitors will not only be able to experience magical ideas in reality by touching and watching objects, they will be part of the masterpiece.</blockquote>
<br />
There were just TOO MANY photos I wanted to share, and I did not want to flood everyone, so I've thrown everything into a video. I hope you guys will enjoy the video as much as I did.<br />
<br />
<i>disclaimer: Please note that everything done in the video is for fun, we were having lots of fun. Please do not feel offended in any way. I just love how he makes me laugh so loud in the museum, and it just seems like there is only two of us. </i><br />
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="344" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/_VZTdfKjJx8" width="459"></iframe><br />
<br />
Most of the sets come with a platform for you to "merge" with their artwork as well<br />

<br />
<br />
Here are some important things about the museum which you would like to note: <br />
<b><br /></b>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Location: </b>Suntec City Mall #03-372 (Between Towers 3 and 4)</span><br />

<br />
Ever had days when you simply cannot sleep or your eyes looking really saggy and tired/ swollen? <br />
<br />
I do, and so does mr locke *pictured above* <br />
<br />
<br />
Well, until we got this " <b>MegRhythm Steam EyeMask</b>". <br />
<br />
Let me give you a background on MegRhythm. <br />
<br />
<blockquote>
" Branded under KAO, and produced in Japan. MegRhythm is a well-known Wellness brand in Japan whereby it offers a range of product to support the healthy and active lifestyles of city dwellers. "</blockquote>
<br />
MegRhythm Steam Eye Masks comes in 4 different scents : <b>Chamomile-ginger</b>(personal favourite), <b>Fresh Rose</b>, <b>Lavender-sage</b> (locke's favourite), <b>Unscented</b><br />
<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/1%202014/Sponsor/MegRhythm%20Steam%20Mask/e_MG_9485_640x427.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo e_MG_9485_640x427.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/1%202014/Sponsor/MegRhythm%20Steam%20Mask/e_MG_9485_640x427.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
This eyemasks mainly targets females as we are much more conscious of how we look in, as well as face more problems in sleep. However, I feel that in this stressful era, it is meant for BOTH genders, and it works really well too. <br />
<br />
<h3>
<span style="font-size: large;"><u><b>Here is how it works: </b></u></span></h3>
<br />
- Upon wearing, the eye mask will start warming up to 40deg in about 1-2minutes. <br />
- Do not apply pressure on the mask against your eyes, you will feel the gentle heat gradually. <br />
- The heating effect will create steam and relaxes + moisturizes your eyes. <br />
- You will sleep. HAHAHA for sure. <br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/1%202014/Sponsor/MegRhythm%20Steam%20Mask/Untitled-1.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo Untitled-1.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/1%202014/Sponsor/MegRhythm%20Steam%20Mask/Untitled-1.jpg" height="300" width="640" /></a><br />
<br />
I suggest to use it just before you sleep, it will really aid your rest. <br />
<br />
Here are the problems that me and my boyfriend faced. <br />
<br />
<b>Me: Insomnia, dehydrated eyes</b><br />
<b>Him: Insomnia , swollen eyes</b><br />
<br />
We do not have a before and after picture but let me tell you what happened. You will have to take my word for it, cos everyone is raving about these masks now. <br />
<br />
<b>Me: I slept withing 5mins or so, and I woke up with much hydrated eyes + my black eye circles do not look that bad. </b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Him: He slept within 2 mins of so, and woke up with bright eyes, zero swelling/ redness. </b><br />
<br />
<u><b><br /></b></u>
<br />
<h3>
<span style="font-size: large;"><u><b>Where to get it? </b></u></span></h3>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">You can purchase it at <b>Watsons</b> and <b>Guardian </b>outlets at <u><b>$6.50/box(5 pieces) </b></u></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">For more information: <a href="http://web.kao.com/sg/">KAO Singapore</a></span><br />

<b><br /></b>
<b>Verdict: <u>4.5/5</u></b><br />
<br />
This is definitely a great innovation! I would use it every night if I have to but the price is a little steep for just 5, so I will probably use it for nights where it is essential (nights before events or important work, maybe holidays to look pretty for pictures)<br />

<br />
<b>Ramen</b>, one of the growing dishes in Singapore as we acquired a much more exquisite taste for it over the years. Demand for good Ramen has been high, as people traveled to the land of Ramen aka Japan, and return to Singapore demanding for the same standards.<br />
<br />
<b>Ramen Revolution is here, involving 38 ramen stores and YOU. You get to vote for your poison, and stand a chance to win up to $1,000 worth of food voucher!</b><br />
<br />
That aside, I am no ramen fan to be honest(my poison is Udon), but I do appreciate good food. Just a couple years back, I was introduced to my current Ramen favourite. <br />
<br />

<br />
I was introduced to Ippudo by one of my good friends, Raistlin (rich guy treated me to a meal there when I was poor). It has been one of my to-go places for Ramen, besides the average ramen store at Mediya ( the Udon was much better but it was replaced by ramen). <br />
My boyfriend has a taste for ramen as well, so I've decided to select Ippudo for this Revolution. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/1%202014/Sponsor/Ramen%20Revolution/20140417_185251_800x450.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo 20140417_185251_800x450.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/1%202014/Sponsor/Ramen%20Revolution/20140417_185251_800x450.jpg" height="360" width="640" /></a><br />
<br />
Queues are one of the less desirable things when I have to eat,but Ippudo makes the queue worthwhile. <br />
<br />

<br />
Seated with Locke, who had a hell of a day. Due to the high volume of customers during lunch/dinner hours, do not expect much of a service. The employees there are generally nice and friendly, but they are usually busy so it might take awhile to get their attention. <br />
Food, is served at high speed compared to getting their attention, so you do not have to worry about going hungry for too long after you've placed your order. <br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Here is why I've chose Ippudo. </span><br />

<br />
Ippudo has a funky interior, displaying all their ramen bowls which are marked and coloured. <br />

<br />
This expensive plate of gyoza had my tastebuds from the very first meeting. <br />
<i><b>Locke:</b> Why did you order the gyoza? Expensive. (It was $9 a plate if i recall, we are prolly used to eating those $3-$6 ones)</i><br />
<i><b>Me:</b> Eh, but it is nice. </i><br />
<i><b>Locke:</b> Is there something special about it?</i><br />
<i><b>Me:</b> Nope, it is just very nice. You will know when you try it. </i><br />
<br />
*After trying*<br />
<i><b>Me:</b> Found anything special about it? </i><br />
<i><b>Locke:</b> Nope, but it is just very nice. </i><br />
<i><b>Me:</b> Yea</i><br />
<br />
<b>Conclusion : It is just goddamn nice, just go try it. </b><br />

<u><b>Miso Tonkutsu Ramen (RAMEN IS THE MAIN HERE DUH!)</b></u><br />
<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/1%202014/Sponsor/Ramen%20Revolution/20140417_193929_338x600.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo 20140417_193929_338x600.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/1%202014/Sponsor/Ramen%20Revolution/20140417_193929_338x600.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
This is one of the rare moments when I am able to finish one whole bowl by myself. It was not due to a smaller portion, because Locke felt satisfied too. The ramen is just plain good. <br />
The broth is flavourful, noodles were not too soggy, side dishes were delish. <br />
<br />
There is a huge array of selection from non-spicy to spicy to specials with selectable sides dishes of chashu, flavour egg, seaweed etc. You may download their Menu (without pricing stated) from their official webpage for viewing. <br />
<br />
However the downside to the restaurant was the price. This is where we apply the rule "<b>You get what you paid for</b>", the Ramen here is definitely better than your average $8-$15 ramen.<br />

<br />
Part of my skin care regime since 2011. I've been religiously using their products for 3 years (of course, there are a few cheat times)<br />
<br />
They've come up with a whole new product, joining the latest GEL skincare technology. <br />
<u><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">HadaLabo Whitening Perfect GEL</span></b></u><br />
<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/1%202014/Sponsor/Hadalabo%20GEL/20140325_112406_800x450.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo 20140325_112406_800x450.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/1%202014/Sponsor/Hadalabo%20GEL/20140325_112406_800x450.jpg" height="360" width="640" /></a><br />
<br />
As usual, HadaLabo delivers the best skincare in one step!<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/1%202014/Sponsor/Hadalabo%20GEL/20140325_112329_800x583.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo 20140325_112329_800x583.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/1%202014/Sponsor/Hadalabo%20GEL/20140325_112329_800x583.jpg" height="466" width="640" /></a><br />
<br />
Gel formula that is concentrated but light!<br />

<br />
I am not sure if you can notice this, due to the difference of lighting) but i tried it on my heel once, and one heel(the darker one) actually has lesser lines than the other.<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/1%202014/Sponsor/Hadalabo%20GEL/20140325_113107_614x600.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo 20140325_113107_614x600.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/1%202014/Sponsor/Hadalabo%20GEL/20140325_113107_614x600.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Verdict: <u>4/5</u></b><br />
<br />
i will repurchase it as the moisturizing power far surpasses other products, however i wished that it could be either dispensable or packed with a spatula for hygiene purposes. <br />

<br />
Some of you might have noticed that recently my face looks just a little slimmer (hopefully), that is because I've found my savior to sagging skin. <br />
<br />
Here i have the GoodSkin Labs FIRM-365 Facial Firming Serum with V-Technology !<br />
<br />
<br />
As skin ages, it loses elasticity and firmness causing facial features to sag and lose definition. That is definitely something that I realize this year because I was losing weight but my face is not slimming down. This heavyweight product helps promote skin’s natural elastin and collagen production to visibly repair skin’s appearance for firmer, more<br />
sculpted and radiant-looking skin over time.<br />
<br />

<br />
Here are some product information~<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/1%202014/Sponsor/Goodskinlabs/20140227_232742_270x480.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo 20140227_232742_270x480.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/1%202014/Sponsor/Goodskinlabs/20140227_232742_270x480.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
<blockquote>
<b>The Radiance Cocktail</b><br />
<br />
<b>A blend of pearls for instant radiance upon application and glucosamine to gently slough away dead skin cells for smoother skin.</b></blockquote>
<br />
This is a <i>VERY</i> smart move by GoodSkin Labs. Applying what I've learnt from make up, the shimmer from the pearls help to reflect light, which gives you an INSTANT radiance. Which explains the 100% score for immediate radiance on the skin. However, please do not think that this is a fraud. I might have pointed it out, but may I point out as well that this radiance LASTS. <br />
With long-term application, this will definitely improve skin condition (read: pearl powder goodness).<br />
<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
<b>V-TECHNOLOGY</b><br />
<br />
<b>Lifting and firming benefits from ingredients,including vitamins and nutrients that support skin’s natural collagen production:</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>1.CME– a Vitamin C & E complex that helps support skin’s natural collagen production to help visibly lift and firm skin</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>2.Photozomes–photo activated enzymes with plankton extract helps support collagen and elastin so skin appears firmer and more youthful </b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>3.Argireline–supports natural collagen production to help diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and firm the look of skin </b></blockquote>
<br />
I am going to be honest, I've not heard of the last two. Collagen production slows down when you hit 20, so having a support definitely works out well. <br />
<br />
<blockquote>
<b>MOISTURIZATION</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Sodium Hyaluronate, Glycerin and Trehalose work together to help skin absorb water and retain moisture.</b></blockquote>
<br />
<br />
I have definitely found lesser needs to re-moisturize my face throughout the day. Retaining moisture is very important to me as I work in an air-conditioned office 5 days a week, it helps to keep my face less oily. <br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<b>Verdict : <u>4/5</u></b><br />
<br />
This is now one of my favourite skincare products, and it is a quick fix if i feel a pimple coming up too (SURPRISE). <br />
However, the price is not in my favor since it is out of my budget for skincare product, but if I do have spare cash I will definitely go for this first. I do advise you to go for it if you have tried a lot of products that do not work for you.<br />
My skin has definitely lifted and application of makeup is easier as well. <br />

<b>Another post about collagen...AGAIN. </b><br />
<br />
I am just so into all these collagen products because they do their work.<br />
The thing about all these collagen products is that you must take it daily, not because it will help you replenish your collagen level because collagen cannot be absorbed by body, however it can become your spare resource. <br />
<br />
I mean, if your body can absorb collagen, seriously speaking... why would you only take 1 satchel/serving/bottle a day only. TAKE MORE, it is not going to waste. <i>However, it doesn't work that way. </i><br />

<b>Verdict:<u> 2/5</u></b><br />
<br />
To be really honest, this product has fallen short of my expectations. <br />
The pro of this product will be that it is in DRINK form, fast and easy to take in. Just one bottle makes your day. <br />
Compared to other drinks that I've tried locally and overseas(taiwan&china),the effects of this drink is not as obvious as others and the taste is really dull. <br />
The price of it is very reasonable as well. <br />
<br />
However this beauty drink has others which caught my eyes, refer to <a href="http://www.hannah.com.sg/index.php?page=shop.browse&category_id=3&vmcchk=1&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=61">MyGenBeauty @ Hannah Holding</a> for more information on other drinks available. <br />
I am very interested in the Detox and Bustful.<br />

I know I am completely naggy and stuff like that, but I am how I am. A collagen fanatic. <br />
<br />
I've raved about the importance of collagen for a really long time, posted pictures of several products, and harp on it over and over again on product reviews. <br />
Do you know that you start losing collagen starting from as young as 20? <br />
<br />
Introducing you some help here now... ITOH COLLAGEN POWDER. <br />
<br />
Endorsed by Kevin, this collagen powder is absolutely TASTELESS, COLOURLESS, NON-SUGAR, NON-FAT. <br />

One box contains 15 satchels and one satchel is all you need for ONE DAY. <br />
Each satchel contains about 3000MG of collagen. <br />
Of course, the advised intake is 1-3 satchels a day but if you are a little stingy and poor like me, one satchel will be sufficient. <br />
<br />
What is different about this collagen powder compared to others? <br />
<br />
1. Colourless - unless you count white as a colour. <br />
2. Tasteless - I've personally tasted it raw without putting it into any drink, just one finger dip. There is no taste at all. <br />
3. Non-sugar - A healthier choice? <br />
4. Non-fat - Even though this collagen powder is extracted from healthy pig skin and cartilage (test by Japan SPF standards), the fat and gelatin are removed through a high purification technology. <br />
5. Low molecular structure - This enables the collagen to be absorbed much more quickly before being broken down by digestive system.<br />
6. Take it ANYTIME - Forgot to take it in the morning? Take it at night! However, collagen requires you to consume it on an empty stomach, so that it can be absorbed before the digestive system destroys it. <br />
<br />
<br />
How long will it take for you to see the results? <br />
It differs from person to person but the average is about 1-2 weeks. <br />
As I've not been taking collagen since I came back from taiwan, my body screamed for it. My face is my best prove, as a good canvas holds makeup well, and it only took me about a week to have improvements. <br />
<br />
Cons: <br />
- Not vegetarian friendly. Sorry girls, being vegetarian has plenty of downsides sometimes because a lot of beauty consumption products are not vegetarian-friendly. <br />
<br />

<br />
ITOH Collagen Powder can be purchased at Guardian @ S$49.90/box. <br />
I would say that this is worth the investment because I've not consumed collagen powder without a funny taste to them, so this is really a saviour. <br />
I will definitely consider purchasing it if my finance allows me to ~~<br />

<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">For those who missed out on this, you will have to wait for the next anniversary huhuhu</span><br />
<br />
Anyway~~ I was recently invited to Saigon Star's 5th Anniversary. I've attended their 2nd Anniversary 3 years back, and it was fun. This year it is packed with even more!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I was really surprised to be invited as I'm not a frequent visitor of their nail and beauty parlour, but I was really pleased. <br />
So they had my appointment arrange at 4, and I was late due to weather, however they were really accommodating and patient. <br />
<br />
The moment I stepped it, I was greeted by Augustine with a really cheerful voice and the laughters of the clients there. You can tell that the ladies were really happy. <br />
<i>And why is that so? </i>This is why....<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/1%202013/events/Saigon%20Star%205th/IMG_8863.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo IMG_8863.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/1%202013/events/Saigon%20Star%205th/IMG_8863.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
<b>Balloon Sculptor! A cute one too!</b><br />
<br />
The ladies were busy shouting requests at him while i make my way past and to my seat for some new colours~<br />
<br />
As you can see from the pictures, the saloon is douse in a light cheerful pink, the seats were comfy, and nail technicians were friendly. <br />
The colours offered were extensive, and I couldn't make up my mind as to what I should pick, so I left it to the nail technicians doing my little toes! <br />
<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/1%202013/events/Saigon%20Star%205th/IMG_8862.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo IMG_8862.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/1%202013/events/Saigon%20Star%205th/IMG_8862.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
So while I was waiting, I looked through some of their designs ~~<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/1%202013/events/Saigon%20Star%205th/IMG_8869.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo IMG_8869.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/1%202013/events/Saigon%20Star%205th/IMG_8869.jpg" /></a><br />

<br />
Knowing myself, I hardly pick bright and bold colours for my toes. My usual are midnight Blue or dark purple or something like that. <br />
She picked a little something different for me, though I did not tell her about my usual nail choices. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/1%202013/events/Saigon%20Star%205th/IMG_8866.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo IMG_8866.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/1%202013/events/Saigon%20Star%205th/IMG_8866.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
<i>A really strong vermillion/orange or some sort. </i><br />
<i> </i><br />
<b>To be honest, I was totally in love with the colour that she picked AFTER I wore my heels. </b>The bold colour stood out so much against my brown heels, that it made my feet extra sexy *wiggle brows*<br />
<br />
I don't have a picture, but please use your imagination... or even better, wear a pair of brown heels and head down to ask for this colour!<br />
<br />
Here is a list of pricing for their services<br />
<br />

<br />
In all honesty, the prices are really worth it for the service. Express pedicure was indeed express and precise, leaving me really please with the outcome. <br />
<br />

I was super excited when this came in today from SampleStore.com, because it is BIORE~~~<br />
<br />
Biore has been one of my top favourite brands for cleansers and removals~ I am a fan!!<br />

<b>The new casing is <u>airtight</u> as well</b>, and easier to use compared to the old one. <br />
<br />

<br />
So here are the claims of the *<b>NEW</b>* Cleansing Oil Sheets and my thoughts!<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/1%202014/Sponsor/Biore%20cleansing%20wipe/20131213_231700.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo 20131213_231700.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/1%202014/Sponsor/Biore%20cleansing%20wipe/20131213_231700.jpg" /></a><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>1. Speedier Make-up Removal: 20% MORE cleansing oil in each sheet. </b></span><br />
<br />
Checked: I took about 1/2 the time to rid my face of makeup thoroughly. <br />
<a href="http://s58.photobucket.com/user/Sochii/media/1%202014/Sponsor/Biore%20cleansing%20wipe/20131213_232131.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo 20131213_232131.jpg" border="0" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g256/Sochii/1%202014/Sponsor/Biore%20cleansing%20wipe/20131213_232131.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>2. Gentler to skin: 50% Less wiping on eyelash and eye area</b></span><br />
<br />
Checked: People who know will know that my eye makeup is rather heavy and resistant. Took our my topliner and eyelash glue in 2-3 swipes. Mascara took a little more time (woohoo Heroine Make)<br />

<b><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="font-size: large;">3. Moist after skin feel : NEW Hydrating Beauty Essence to leave skin moist and soft with no stickiness</span></b><br />
<br />
Checked: Skin did NOT feel dry at all~~ It felt like i've jus washed my face and moisturized it~ there is no stickness as well!!<br />

<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Verdict:<u> 5/5</u></b><br />
<br />
I will definitely buy it again. I used to use at least two sheets before I feel that my makeup is thoroughly clean out, but now I only require one!! I've always thought that Biore wipes were pretty awesome, now it just got a whole lot better!! <br />
You have to try it too!!<br />

Yet another review for Hada Labo~!<br />
Did I mention just how much I love their moisturizers/Toners? They always work for me no matter what, and I hope you can find your bottle too!<br />

I am going to plop this here for you all to read because I am lazy like that. <br />

<br />
May I say that the absorption speed is superb once again? <br /><br />Hada Labo fun fact: Did you know that your Hada Labo Lotion doubles as a secondary cleanser? Put about 3-4 drops on a cotton pad and clean your face for any makeup residues!<br />
<br />
It is also suitable for sensitive skin!<br />

<br />
Teehee~~ Using it nau~<br />
<br />

<br />
<b>Verdict: 4.5/5</b><br />
<br />
This solution is thicker than the Whitening series, so about 3-4 drops would actually be sufficient for the whole face.<br />
I've tried it approximately at 8AM in the morning and at about 11PM, my face only feel a little oily (I've not done anything to my face the whole day and I am situated in an air conditioned room)<br />
<br />
If you still unsure about investing in a bottle, TRY IT FIRST. <br />
Like they always say, try first before you buy so that you do not regret it!<br />

No, i did not make a mistake in my title~ those who watched the movie will know *winks* <br />
<br />
So thanks to OMY.SG, I was one of the first few invited to catch KickAss 2!<br />
Here is the trailer~~<br />

<blockquote>
KickAss 2 is a sequel where the costumed high-school hero, Kick-Ass ,joins a group of normal citizens who have been inspired to fight crimes in costumes. Meanwhile, the Red Mist(now known as the Motherfucker) hires top killers and plots an act of revenge that will affect everyone that Kick-Ass knows. </blockquote>

<br />
Before the movie, I got up-close and personal with some of the villains (maybe heroes in secret). They are actually my friends in real life, which greatly surprised me because I had no idea that they will be here for the premier, making this premier so much more special for me and my date!<br />

In the cinema, waiting for show to start~ <br />
What is a superhero movies without your heroes and villains?!<br />
<br />
Thanks guys~ the Kick-ass and Hitgirl were really friendly.<br />

<br />
The movie was loaded with actions and emotions. It shows despite being crime fighters, they have real lives outside of their costumes and responsibilities to assume. However what is life if you do not be what you really want to be? <br />
<br />
I would give this movie a 4/5 because I still feel that it wasn't as engaging as Kick-ass. <br />
<br />
I shall do away with the spoilers as movie opens TODAY. <br />
Everyone should head on down to your nearest cinema and catch the movie TODAY. <br />

<br />
After the whole movie, we unmasked the hero/villains and went out for an awesome supper/dinner~ It was truly fun to hang out with these friends as they are always so entertaining and such awesome guys to be around~<br />
<br />
Me with Andy( aka S.M., so handsome behind that pink mask) and my gorgeous date of the night, Simon. <br />

<br />
and our Huge Pizza. A big meal for my big heroes/villains. We dub ourselves all villains pretty much, since we are not kind at all. <br />

Kayssa.com products reminds me of a chic and stylish femme with a bit of sass in her. <br />
<br />
Enough of what I think and let's see what Kayssa.com has for me~~!<br />
<br />
==<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">J-TYPE! </span></b>aka japan style~ I styled this set of fashion with Ayumi Hamasaki in mind~<br />
<br />

<br />
I <b>LOVE</b> the color of this skirt. When it was sent to me during that period, I was really into neon colors so you guys can only imagine how stoked I was. <br />
The quality of the skirt was awesome as well, the quilt material was really soft and fluffy. LOVE IT. <br />
<br />
The thing that doesn't appeal to me was the length of the skirt.. and my fats. <br />
The length of the skirt was longer than I liked, but nothing that cannot be solved without a little sewing. It is perfect for those who like a conservativeXspunk approach though.<br />
<br />
I sort of grew quite a bit on the hips, and the inner lining was wrapped around them a little too tightly. I removed that too, and it definitely DID NOT affect the piece. It still looks perfectly fine, and I was really comfortable in them. <br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
When I saw this piece, I was all like.. THIS IS IT.<b> CHAERIN STYLE!</b> The colour, the print. I just..couldn't get enough of it! So I decided to bring it out for a proper shoot!<br />
<br />
The shorts were really comfy despite me gaining ALOT of weight. They are also on the slightly stretchy side, so it was really comfy as usual. GREAT!<br />
<br />
I have <i>nothing</i> negative to say about these pair of shorts because I love it so much! I would have liked it in royal blue or something, if i really have to say something. The lemon yellow really caught my heart, regardless. <br />

<br />
First of all, I have to apologise to all my readers and sponsors. I just stopped blogging all of a sudden for a month without warning. <br />
Even if I've lost readers or sponsors, I will still blog and cough up all the post that I owe. So please bear with me if you see sudden inserts of product reviews that are not super new products... I am guilty.<br />
<br />
That aside. Let me work on clearing my posts one by one, by going from front to back.<br />
<br />
==<br />
<br />
<br />
This is my 6th? year attending Cosfest, 7th year in the cos scene.<br />
My first event was Cosfest 2006, when I hardly knew anyone, utter fail at cosplay... I wouldn't even compare myself to the newbs now.. I think I was even worse than them. (Hope that inspires you guys LOL)<br />
<br />
After one year of absence due to a dumb choice, I returned to the cos scene feeling rather dejected thinking that no one will remember me. Surprisingly, quite a number of people do, and I started working my way to know more people ( if you have been following my page, instagram, facebook, you would have seen how I am trying to rebuild my life including all my breakdowns and rage. )<br />
<br />
This Cosfest, even though I was not cosplaying, it was filled with fun and laughter. I was invited back to join the ranks of the Toki Doki Meido and Shitsuji Cafe by Emi and Serene.<br />
Through the cafe, I've made more friends that were really fun and forgiving.<br />
<br />
Even though the cafe went through quite rush and situations, but we've made it somehow.<br />
So on to the pictures!<br />
<br />
Below pictures are all taken from my phone because I simply do not have the leisure for using a camera. *laugh*<br />
<br />
<br />
First day of Cafe! <br />
Got to meet Reika and she was... a lot shorter than I've imagined. I am not her fan by the way, I just saw her pictures around FB very often because of people who are her fans. <br />
Walked around the cafe with her to help customers take photos with her and Emi served her table while I help here and there.<br />
<br />

<br />
I can only recall that she was short, looks very tired but very warm and nice towards all her fans who attended the private lunch session. I really applaud her =w=b.<br />
<br />
<br />
Second day of Cafe! (I KNOW I LOOK THE SAME.SHUSH. IT IS THE SETTING)<br />
<br />
Got to met Inui and Kotori. <br />
Kotori is SUPER CUTE. She is like this little genki ball hopping around the cafe, going around looking at things and people and greeting customers with us *facepalm* Miss Kotori, you are a guest, you are suppose to rest and feel relax. She is so cute that I can't even- *squeeze hug her mentally* <br />

<br />
And den... Inui. This... sexy man 0//A//0 <br />
To be honest, I don't follow cosplay stars, so like when people are screaming as Kaname/Reika/Yuegene/Kipi or insert anny cosplay star name of your choice. I am like oh okay. <br />
In the same way, I cannot say I am a fan of Inui's cosplay cos I have zero idea about him until he came to the cafe. <br />
I just went, HOMG THIS GUY IS SEXY. However, this guy is 45, just a year younger than my mom *ROFL* I swear he makes me think that I have a thing for older men. <br />
<br />
SUPER SHY IS ME. Thanks. He even sounds sexy *faints*<br />

This Cosfest XII have been a truly awesome experience for me. <br />
<br />
Just in case anyone wonders why I am took so much instax, as mentioned in my facebook before, i suspect that my memory is slowly failing me. I've been forgetting a lot of things, even people. I wish to treasure every single bit of memory that I can salvage now and look back at it. <br />
I truly hope that I can remember every single one of you. I used to not care because people come and go. <br />
<br />
They still do, but that doesn't mean I must even if some have left. <br />
<br />
Feeling truly grateful for new and existing friends. <br />

This is Mirai from http://www.mirai-l.com . I did not ask her permission to post this picture because I wrote this post in a super short span, and she's my friend so I believe she's be more lenient on me 8D<br />
<br />
ANYWAY! TOPIC OF THE DAY: FASHION FAIL aka INSING.COM<br />
<br />
I've heard of Insing.com a while back and liked their FB page, reading some of their posts and news time to time but this one damn situation that I absolutely CANNOT accept. <br />
<br />
FASHION FAIL? REALLY? I'D SAY ARTICLE FAIL.<br />
<br />
For a rough idea of what happened: <a href="http://www.mirai-l.com/2013/05/bright-hair-colors-fashion-mistake.html">Mirai-L: Bright Hair colours =/= Fashion Fail </a><br />
<br />
<br />
==<br />
<br />
I am sure most of my readers will agree with me, different hair colours is NOT a fashion fail. It is like that clothes you wear everyday, unless you are telling me you have worn one colour for your whole entire life, then you are allowed to agree it is a fashion fail. <br />
<br />
I went to their article and saw MORE ARTICLE FAILS. <br />
<br />
let me elaborate...<br />
<br />
1. Stealing of pictures and no credits. This is fucked up to the max. As an operating online website of news, do you not cite your articles? YOU CALL YOURSELF A JOUNALIST/COLUMNIST?EDITOR WHEN YOU DO NOT CITE SOURCES? go burn yourself, you are already unqualified. To have the guts to edit someone else's picture is such a distasteful way? *spits on you*<br />
<br />
2. Biased opinions of Fashion. Do you even know fashion in the first place? Let me name out one by one how auntie you are.. you are practically someone that comes from 1980s or something even further back. Ancient Fossil. <br />
<br />
a. Wearing black circle lenses. Colour contacts exists before you know what is fashion, and some people are born with smaller pupils. Is it wrong to want to look like those born with larger pupils? OH WAIT, you jus insulted those with naturally huge pupils. moron. <br />
<br />
b. Coloured hair. I'd have you know that this happened probably way before you are born and was already A FASHION STATEMENT in foreign countries before it hit sad singapore, who is usually at the end of the fashion line because our imports are so loserish that they cannot keep up with new releases. <br />
<br />
c. Side-shave. OH This is juvenile and ugly? Why don't you list it as Fashion Mistakes THE WHOLE WORLD MAKES. Guys do it too, auntie/uncle editor. <br />
<br />
d. Invisible bra straps. These are items that are meant to replace visible one to hold BOOBS. Did you know that some women are unable to wear strapless and feel comfortable? At least they are not blatantly using visible ugly straps. Oh and by the way? Visible straps are somewhat in too, that sexy vibe. <br />
<br />
e. Falsies. Don't even get me started on this. Try getting a pair of 1.5CM falsies, and use your fucking mascara to lengthen a 3mm lash to that length. Bitch. Obviously you must be an old lady if you mention kitchen necessities, most people go there to buy craft or decorations. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The list can go on and on, and for some of the clothing pictures, they obviously pick bigger sized people which is... not very sexy. How low can you get? <br />
<br />
For such a shit article written, I don't even see why you should get anymore followers when all you give is rubbish info. <br />
As someone who change hair colour oftenly too, I am offended by your small brains and lack of info.<br />
<br />
I think Mirai and the other girls who got their photos stolen from <i>deserves </i>a public apology on the website itself. You might think you are an oh-so-smart fashionista editor, but <i>you are nothing but some pudgy jealous slum. </i><br />
<br />
p.s. I thought the girl with side shave was really good.<br />
