Selamat Hari Raya

hi guys,

quick update on the blogspot-not-loading thingy: I confirmed that it's my internet connection. Coz, yesterday, when I wanted to update my blog, it refused to load the page. and today, it was ok again. Sooooo...current-internet-provider, bye!

onto the our topic; Selamat Hari Raya!! 

a little too late coz it's already the third week of Raya? i think? All I know is, our house already cleaned of any Hari Raya trace. wawawa

This year's Raya is a bit sad coz my baju raya arrived late. 

📣📣 STORY TIMEEEEEE 📣📣

I decided this year that I'm going with the ready-made saja, coz you know, I don't have to paning2 pikir design apa mau buat. 
I purchased from Zalora.com on 17th May, received ordered at around 10am on 22nd May, I did quick fittings and they were all too big (I ordered XXL and, rupanya, I'm not size XXL LOL!), went to Zalora.com app to request exchange at around 11ish am, and quickly went to a specific courier service for drop off at around 1ish pm, THAT VERY SAME DAY 22nd MAY! 
I only received respond from Zalora.com that 11ish am, them acknowledging my request.
I was panicking when I didn't received any respond by 30th May; they said request would take at least 3 days to be processed, and I was giving them grace period of 8 DAYS! 
but of course, I was being understanding, you know, festive traffic and all that cheese.
Finally received an email from zalora.com on 2nd Jun, they just received my returned package. and I was like, "what the actual fuck?" I sent 22nd May and you received 2nd Jun? what?!
on 3rd Jun zalora.com sent another email to me saying my items are on their way.
🙄
by now, I was already so done.
I actually went to SF Express (that specific courier service) on the 4th Jun, to try my luck, to at least ask. coz I've been trying to call them since 3rd Jun but their phone rang a few times and after that, cut off. like, what even? but when I arrived at their office, they already closed. 
I tried again on the 5th Jun but still no one answering the phone. I got pissed and didn't bother stressing anymore.
Raya fell on 6th Jun in Brunei, so sis redha and pakai baju lama sja beraya. 😭

It was a long holiday here in Brunei for Hari Raya, we were given 3 days public holidays, obviously, I didn't want to pressure SF Express and just waited till 10th Jun.
10th Jun arrived and I actually logged onto my Zalora account and found out that my parcel already arrived in Brunei on 3rd Jun 8ish pm. 

like, why didn't I check this thing earlier? LOL my baddd~~

So, I went to SF Express, they were opened, I showed the guy at the collection counter the screenshot I took, and he was actually too calm for my liking.
He checked on his computer and tried to tell me what I already know ("oh, we received the item on 3rd June malam and we-") and I just ✋.
I was surprised at how calm I was when I raise my hand like ✋, stopping him and said, smiling, "can I collect now?" to which he replied, "yes, you can collect today. just give me some time to find your package". I smiled, "thank you". MY CUSTOMER SERVICE ASS AT WORK BITCHES!
I don't think I waited long, maybe 5 minutes top, and I received my package! I quickly left before my anger raise from the depth of my guts.

Now, let me tell you why I need to rant:

*clears throat

1. I understand that it was Hari Raya season and it was hectic closer to the date, the least they can do is give customer a call if they couldn't deliver them to their doorstep. I mean, yeah, maybe ada customer yang being fussy as fuck about that but I'm sure I'm not the only one yang willing to collect my items on my own COZ IT'S MY BAJU RAYA DAMMIT!
2. that guy at the counter. THE 👏 AU 👏 DA 👏 CI 👏TY 👏! dude, my parcel arrived on 3rd Jun, 7 days later, here I am in front of you, already in the 5th day of Raya wearing old baju, SF Express didn't even bother to give me a call that you've been keeping my items/package for 6-7 days, AND YOU WANT TO GIVE ME EXCUSES AS TO WHY THIS IS HAPPENING? boy ✋, stand up, and quickly get my package before I blow that place up.

*exhale heavily

I know, ada lagi urang yang lebih susah dari aku, I should be grateful I still have decent baju to wear on Hari Raya.

What I learned from this?

• lain kali, order awal lagi sikit if it's for Raya
• supaya dapat exchange far more quickly
• or, check size measurement banar2. last year I ordered from a brand Zalia and the size XL was too fit on me. This year I ordered from brand Lubna, and thought I should order XXL so it'd be a little loose but damn! Different brand has different measurement. So, check that section thoroughly
• Zalora.com still deliver fast to Brunei, within 3-5 working days. I think it's just the exchange that took forever. or maybe it's just during Hari Raya. I have never exchange anything for the last 5-6 times purchasing from them. So, I wasn't aware of that process. and I chose Hari Raya to test that process. Brilliant.
• I almost menyamal but I have 2 items in my basket right at this moment. LOL~!

anyway,

my anger subsides when I returned to work on the 12th Jun and asked Faizah to take my OOTD. wawawa

first two was taken by Faizah, the third obviously not. No idea when the official OOTD with that baju will be done. maybe this coming Friday. it will be up on my IG when done. 😉

hows your Hari Raya so far? I hope better than mine. Mine wasn't bad, I just, lazy. LOL I have other things to focus on 😉

alright, that is all for this post.

See ya tomorrow. Hopefully.

Ciao~

KL Trip Half Day Awesomeness

before I proceed with this post, 
an amendment: I just remembered I met with Bazilah and her nephews a few hours on Saturday, 9th Dec, later afternoon. hee terlupa.


moving on .. or moving back to the afternoon of Friday, 8th Dec.

Met up with Bazilah and her nephews.

Bazilah wanted to bring the boys to Bukit Bintang to purchase some game equipments.

I suggested we use the MRT.

We stopped by McD for drinks.

pastu we go to the famous electronics mall. erm..called Low Yat Plaza.

image not mine. got it off Google.

it was my second time being there. last time, untuk melintas kan ke Berjaya Time Square saja. LOL

it was pretty big for electronic products. everyone kept on "cari apa, Kak?" "Tengok lah dulu" to which I only replied with a smile. coz I was just looking around, Bazilah and nephews were the one looking for something. I join je~


After that, we went to Berjaya Time Square!

Bazilah wanted to show her nephews the indoor theme park.

My second time here and no, we didn't enter the theme park, again.

So, we eat at Sushi King instead.

SO YUM!


Next to the restaurant is an archery range.

So that's what we do afterwars, play there.

ada pose jadi tah. 

my target.
this would be my second time playing. but the first time was like 7 years ago?
so patting my own back for effort.

Zawir said he wanted to test my skill di Miri. hashtag BringItOnBruh

After acrhery, kami stopped by McD again and bought dinner.

The scenery from Majid Jamek Station. 

I think this masjid is called Masjid Jamek hence the name of the station. 

anyway, once di hotel, they melepak a while in my room, since i have such spacious room. i think at about 11 kali, they went back to their own rooms coz they had an early day on 9th Dec, while I'll be on my own going to KLCC.

So, I set out at around 10:30am, Saturday, 9th Dec but due to my clumsiness and bangang-ness with the train route, I ended up arriving at KLCC at around 12pm kali.

i didn't take many pictures there.

I shopped at Kinokuniya mostly. coz my sister bekirim buku baby.

I even shopped at Cotton On Kids. my sister bekirim jumper.

I shopped at Muji before that. bought some staff. seriously, inda banyak. LOL

the rest, I spent walking around KLCC and when my legs finally can not take it, I had lunch di Wendy's.

it was ok. 

once I finished, I finally balik semula ke hotel to rest.

I remember thinking, "faktor umur" coz my legs were so painfullllllll.

at around 2:30pm, I was back di hotel and slept until 3:55pm. woke up when Bazilah texted me to go jalan2 with the nephews. Planned to go to this famos Plaza in Masjid India area, called SOGO. I remember going there as a kid.

Image not mine, got it off Google

I'm afraid no picture too. 

I know we ate at Texas Chicken and walked around, browsing the kadai.

I don't think we buy anything there.

at around 6pm we already on the way balik hotel.

at around 9pm, I walked on my own down at the Bazaar. 
right out side our hotel was a Bazaar, but I realized they mostly sell clothes and accessories.

Image not mine. got it off Google.

I was actually looking for food. So, jauh lah jua jalan ku. way passed this sheltered area.

there are a lot of food stall the further I go. but I don't feel like eating mee goreng, cucur pisang, etc.

I only bali 3 items; air kelapa, Sotong King goreng, and Lekor goreng.

too bad nada gambar. :P

again, I apologize for the lack of picture. :P


It was a little scary at first walking on my own but after a while, I saw a couple of single ladies walking around buying food jua, so I relaxed a little.

Once i feel like I was so far off, I turned back around, back to my hotel, to feast. muahahaha

I think what I love most about this trip is that I spent so much time berelek and eating. LOVE IT.

The most relaxing travel I ever did. walaupun kaki rasa kan pulak, it was an awesome weekend for me.

as mentioned in the previous post, since drg ada MRT sudah, I might go there next time as a solo traveler. ;)

Face Mask Galore

Soooo, it's my bday month and TheFaceShop Brunei has gift for me.

and then since by end og Sep, my membership will expires, I renewed it. and that renewal entitled me to another gift.

I LOVE GIFTS!


and at that time, the shop was having this 'Buy 3 Free 3' face mask, so I was like, "Hmm...OK!"

I choose all the expensive ones, or not really.

Top 3 are at least B$6 while Bottom 3 are around B$8 and they told me they will charge me base on the 3 most expensive ones. (-_-)

but I still bought them despite the notice. LOL

coz I'm crazy.

and, no picture here, I still have abour 5 more face masks belum pakai.

GREAT!

So, now, I'm so rajin wearing face mask every Friday. which only been 2 Fridays since I bought the above. LOL

I seriously don't know if this face masks do any different to my face. 

there are changes on my face but I know its not from using face mask. it's just from my facial routine every morning and night. 

*shrug*

anyway,

share your excessive facial products that you bought. is it as bad as mine? LOL


. . .

Can't have them? You will find a way.

Remember when SHINee was doing this collaboration?

Well, I couldn't get my hands on any of those lovely items.

So, when I planned on going to USS (stands for Universal Studio Singapore) few weeks ago, I decided that I'm gona shop at Sesame Street Gift/Souvenirs shop.

Why Elmo? coz Onew is Elmo in their collaboration.

♥╣[-_-]╠♥


When you can't get your hands on SHINee Concert's merchandises,

USS got you covered.

Face sheet Mask

I am addicted to face mask.

 bought at Guardian, Miri, in January. Proud to tell you that I've used all.

Top 3: I asked my sister to buy me from Guardian, when she was in Miri. (LOL)

Middle and Bottom: I bought them in Brunei's The Face Shop.

I started using them in Sep/Oct last year.
I bought 4 individual sheets first to start off. used once a week.

and then, now, I think I'm mostly addicted in buying them.

I used them! of course! but I should stop, coz I have enough to cover me for the next two months.

I need another hobby that doesn't involve spending money.

. . .

a/n: Not sorry about the sudden HSM outburst.

The Saem

another south Korean cosmetic adventure with me.

Previously, SHINee endorsed Etude House.

Now, they are endorsing another brand called The Saem.

I hated it at first coz in Brunei, Etude House no longer around.

and the other Korean cosmetics brand sold in Brunei are; The Face Shop, Laneige, Skin Food, Missha, and Holika Holika.

but I think after a year or within the year SHINee endorsing  The Saem, I found out yg di Miri, Sarawak, Malaysia has The Saem!

I found out in December 2016 and promised myself yg I will visit that store in Januar 2017.

which I did.

 wehwehweh

but since I bought my facial skin care at The Face Shop, I bought below from The Saem.

Cleansing Tissue, ConcealerFoundation, Lip Scrub, and Lipstick.

I really like this packaging. So nice.

That Face Sheet Mask was a gift.

I asked the sales girls if ada cOnew. both of them went, "siapa tu?"

Me with muka 'you are kidding, right' but decided to laugh it off and asked again, "ada yg gambar lain?"

With their dialect they answered me, they don't have and "only muka ani saja" to which I genuinely laughed at.

Seriously in that kadai, they only have that one picture of SHINee and two photos of Minho. Like, he's not the only SHINee member, ok?

:P

anyway,

I've used the lipstick and ConcealerFoundation.

the lipstick I love becoz its very buttery (as in smooth application) and doesn't dry matte. very moisturizing.

the ConcealerFoundation love most becoz it does exactly as its called; concealed and a good base. but so far, I never actually use any powder after I put this on. to me it looked more natural without the dry powder.

I'm a member at The Saem too.

hahahaha member everywhere!

but since I'm currently using all my skin care from The Face Shop, I don't know if I'm buying anymore from The Saem after this.

coz I seldom wear make up thus chances of me needing a new stock is very slim.

Jadi ta tedapat barang The Saem where cSHINee endorsed.

muahahahaha

My Faceshop galore

HERE IT IS

Finally here I am! with my long awaited post about my Faceshop haul 

So let's get to it!

24th September 2016,
the first time I shopped 'berabis' of their goods: 

Facial Scrub, Oil Clear:Poreshot Blur (kinda like a primer) and Facial Masks.

and since September is my bday month, I got below as a bday gift:

Free Sample of Heaven Grade's Toner and Emulsion

Facial Masks

 also my purchased that time entitled me to become a member xD yayyerrr


The next one I bought in Miri, Sarawak, Malaysia on 8th November 2016.

Heaven Grade's Toner.

From this purcahsed, I was given the Le Marche The Theraphy Anti-Aging Formula Kit

I LOVE FREE GIFTS!

I also become a member at Faceshop Miri. xD

NEXT


4th December 2016, 
I went to Miri again with the sole purpose of buying another items from The Faceshop.

I bought these items:

Le Marche The Theraphy Anti-Aging Serum, Mike Wazowski's CC Cushion and Eye Shadow pallette.

buying all the three items got myself:

a free the First serum free sample,

and a set of Chia Seed Whitening Discovery Kit.

on 25th December, I decided, I "needed" a concealer. I bought this in Faceshop, Brunei.

bought Hand Cream tarus. :P

the last one for this section of Faceshop haul, on 23rd Jan 2017, I bought below items;

Yehwadam Revitalizing Toner

and Le Marche The Theraphy The First Serum.

with those tow purchases, I got two free gifts:  

Yehwadam Revitalizing skincare Kit 

and the Heaven Grade Special Kit.

I think this last purchased was my favorite coz I got two full travel size kits. kekeke 

I LOVE FREE GIFTS!!

Erm, as for results from using these, I mean from using the Toner and Serum, hmmm... 
better than before, at least.
I have oily complexion, these products aint helping much on that issue but i think my face isn't as dull as before.
before this, I usually just wash my face and that was it. and after I popped any zit I usually used traditional ointment to cure it.
Now, after I wash my face, I used toner, and then the serum. lepas tu, if i have sore zit area, i still use the traditional ointment on it. 
I haven't use The First Serum, coz I'm want to finish using the Ginseng toner and the theraphy serum dulu. After I finished those, baru tah I start using the First Serum, Yehwadam Toner and the Yehwadam Serum.
the Yehwadam Serum I'm planning to purchase soon. :P

Sooooo
there you go
my Faceshop haul!
from September 2016 to January 2017.
mengobsess tahap gaban.
hahahah

I will continue to purchase from both Brunei's and Miri's  Faceshop until they have nothing else to offer to me. muahahaha

until then,
ciao~
