Elianto VS O.P.I

Tue, 01 Dec 2009 08:01:21 GMT

Today I am going to write about the differences between Elianto and O.P.I nail polish respectively.

Price
Elianto costs RM 5.00. Super affordable, it's a steal!

O.P.I costs RM 59.00 (as surveyed from Shins, Jusco S2). Not a cheap price to pay at all.

Colour Range
Both offers a wide range of colours giving us great variety.

Design
The design of the bottle for both are almost equal and so as their net weights.

Availability
Both brands are easily accessible at almost all shopping malls nationwide.

Durability
Elianto's glossiness and colour will fade after about a week or so, while O.P.I could sustain longer, for about 2 weeks.

Elianto are able to make the nails harder, but are more prone to chipped off nail polish.

O.P.I could last longer and make the nails really hard.

Drying Time
Elianto dries up faster than polishes of many other brands.

O.P.I could dry up even faster than Elianto.

Easy Application
Elianto are easy to apply.

O.P.I are even better! Even if you are not a professional in applying nail polish, it auto-smoothens out evely on your nails like gloss paints.

I am not doing a review on them as I have tried both and are very happy with the products. This is just a comparison between the two, given that the price differences are very substantial. O.P.I are by far the best performing nail polish available thus the popularity and the price. You definitely won't feel cheated by paying the price and getting something below expectation.

Elianto are doing a very good job too. For a price as such you get a very very presentable nail polish. And it's by far the cheapest and best performing one in that range. You can get about 12 bottles of Elianto nail polish for the price of one O.P.I. Good job!!!

Company Trip - Lumut, Perak

Tue, 24 Nov 2009 02:21:08 GMT

The first weekend of the month, was my company�s trip. We were all truly deserved a short trip as we were all battered up in the �Maxis� war. Yes, everyone wanted a portion of the Maxis shares and there they go� hastily opening accounts at the very last minute and fighting for IPO application forms before the due date. The due date came by and it was the day we will be departing from Seremban to Damai Laut, Swiss Garden Golf Resort & Spa.

I intend to keep this post as brief as possible, thus I will skip many details of this trip. We departed from our office in the evening and arrived there at 2.30am. Went to collect out t-shirts and room keys, followed by a light supper then went to bed. I couldn�t really sleep well so I woke up at around 6.00am the following day.

Went for breakfast, met the �blogger� I was talking about in my previous post. Proceeded to the ice breaking session (which was rather fun) and participated in games and sports. Fast forward, I�ve done playing my game which was the beach volleyball and then while the others were still playing and waiting for lunch time to come by, I walked around the place, met some of my colleagues and took a picture with them.

After that, I rested on a bench at the seaside. And these are the spectacular view of the sea which I managed to capture.

Truly breathtaking�

And something not so breathtaking, I camwhored.

When everything was said and done, eaten our lunch� I took a stroll along the hotel trying to look for a souvenir shop, I bumped into a friend of mine.

Joseph. What a small world. I met him in Seremban quite some time ago because he�s a friend of Simon, and I never knew he�s actually working in our HQ.

And then I bumped into that �blogger� again. He�s none other than�.

Christopher Tock!!! Hahaha� We�ve actually known each other quite a bit already long before this trip but that was the first time we actually met in person. It�s a long story on how we knew each other, maybe I will blog about it some other time if I have the inspiration . Ahem� okay so co-incidentally he�s also working in our HQ.

Fast forward again to the annual dinner at night. We were all rather exhausted already. I feel like I looked like a ghost with tired eyes that night. So I went to grab some people to camwhore with me.

Winnie and I.

Then we couldn�t get enough of camwhoring, we even get the cleaner lady Auntie Mary to join in.

Christopher and I.

Christopher, me and the rest who dressed up for the occasion. They are all from HQ I think.

The dinner ended and we went back to our rooms to change and raided other colleagues� room. And there we were�

Sunday wasn�t that full of activities so I walked around the hotel and to spot some nice sceneries to snap. But some of these shots are stolen from another colleague of mine, not entirely my snappings.

No picture of food because they are awful tasting, I�m honest!

It was a fun but tiring trip.

- THE END -

Back To My Hometown

Fri, 06 Nov 2009 03:00:46 GMT

One of my recent blog post was about me getting attacked by a motorcyclist in Seremban town and many watched, noone helped. I was greatly disappointed by the level of civilisation among the onlookers. Not only that, we often encounter drivers who drive recklessly as if they are the king of the road whenever we head out in a car. Traffic are being made inefficient by these irresponsible people. Cutting queue at traffic lights, changing lanes all of a sudden without signals... so on and so forth.

No offence to Serembanians, I do love Seremban. I love the place and I'm kinda neutral towards the locals here. Although I wasn't born here, but can also be considered as I grow up here. So don't bombard me if you are a Serembanian. I am not bombarding you.

Let me share with you one very recent 'sakai' incident which took place at my very beloved Jusco, S2.

I was shopping for groceries with my bf on a beautiful Sunday morning when we realised the supermarket is getting more and more crowded. So 'kiasu' me hurried up and went to the express lane to queue up for payment. I soon begin to see the queue behind me is getting longer and longer by the seconds. Phew... that was like one of the smartest decision I made, or so I thought.

Seconds later, I felt like my butt was being lightly hit by a shopping cart. And to my dismay, when the person in front of me moved forward, I moved forward too in order to stop my lil booty to be kissed by someone else's cart. The moment I moved forward, my butt was being 'kissed' again. I looked back to see who was directing the 'intimate' scene and turns out to be a Malay woman with one daughter standing behind her and another younger one sitting in the trolley.

Fine, I moved forward again and then as expected... the same thing happened AGAIN!!! I was kinda beh syiok already so I told my bf about it. I normally give people 3 chances to offend so I kept my cool and stood still until the person in front of me moved further again. I followed suit and this time the stupid woman not only did the same thing but it was slightly harder this time.

My bf was observing the incident this 3rd time around so he called out to the woman with a " Hello... " and immediately the woman realised what he was trying to address her. Without a single delay she shouted loudly at him " Eleh, tak kena pun! " I was dead furious that time because it was darn obvious I got hit many times and she knew what she did. It was so obvious. So I shouted back by saying " Kena lah... Sudah banyak kali! "

Then that barbaric woman wasn't happy about it at all. Not only she did not apologise, she further shouted at us with " Itu sikit aje pun nak buat bising eh?! ". I said, " Oh, kalau macam tu u bawak kereta langgar kereta orang depan u pun kata tak kena atau kena sikit aje la ye?! " Then I looked to the front attempting to ignore her. The cashier was aware of the incident and everyone else who was lining up, and noone defended her.

She continued to insult my bf and they were like about to argue on the spot already. And I heard something significant and truly barbaric from her damn mouth. " Tak cedera pun! ". What the F!!! Must injure me only I can voice out is it. My bf and I stopped exchanging words with that woman and continued lining up when she again shouted at him calling him " SIBUK!!! ".

Such a barbaric sakai. Is that the example of a good mum she is trying to show to her little daughters? Oh my... I can imagine what our future beholds if they learn from their sakai mum. Totally hopeless.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So tonight I will be away for a 3 days 2 nights company trip at Lumut, Perak. In fact, I was born in Ipoh, stayed at Bidor and my grandparents' house is in Kampar. So I can consider this trip as a homecoming trip or whatsoever lar. You know what I mean. It's feels so good to be back.

I am normally not a travel girl. I don't really look forward to overnight trips. You know, the dirty toilets... the almost public beds... eww. How nice to just chill out at home on a weekend in your own room and cuddle up on your own bed covered with your own comforter with your own smelly but sweet scent. LOL. And I hate it the most when I have to come back and unpack all the stuffs I packed. Isn't it good that at home all your belongings are placed nicely in the wardrobe?

Yeah, that aside. I try my best to look forward to this trip. Thus, I'm on a holiday mood right now! I try to tell myself that everyone else has places to go this weekend so even if I am at home, I can find noone. Might as well I be away as well right? Especially when this trip is free of charge to me!!! Anyway that is not really the main thing. If we are to go to somewhere else I would be much less excited. But this! It's my home state yo! Perak, here I come!!!

So I hope Perakians don't disappoint me like Serembanians did. As far as I knew since the day I knew Perak till today... People there are much nicer to me. I mean, not that they are nicer than Serembanians, but they are treating me in a better way than you all in Seremban lor. You all don't treat me well then I puji Perak people lor =X. I hope I am seeing the same thing this time around when I'm back there.

Will be away for a few days. Till then, see ya...

P/S:- I'll be meeting someone rather popular in the blogosphere during the trip. Because coincidentally he/she is in the same company as I am in, it's just that I belong to the Seremban branch and he/she is from the HQ. Stay tuned to find out who...

Ingenious Invention

Sun, 18 Oct 2009 08:03:34 GMT

It's actually not a big deal but in my opinion, it's one of the most ingeniuos invention ever for cosmetics.

And I'm talking about...

Shimmery puffs!!!

Yes, it's such a simple thing.

First of all, the cute design. Just like a lollipop. The puff at the top, decorated with a satin ribbon, and attached to a thin stick. The entire package is just so pretty.

Just simply puff it all over your face, neck and body after make up, and simply dust them apart to give you some shimmer and sparkle. Just like a superstar or diva! It doesn't make you look like greeting card with glitters on, they shimmers are really fine. Only looks prominent under lightings. Great for dinners. Shimmers from different angles catches light from all over the place. Shine like a diva yo!

The main reason as to why I like this thing so much is because of the pricing. You can simply get one from any ordinary cosmetic shop at the price ranging from RM 5 to RM 10 only. Isn't that an intelligently invented product which comes in a super affordable pricing? It's a must have for all girls!

P/S:- Guys, a special tip for you. This is also a very good gift idea for your girl. Plus, it's super cost efficient too.

Attacked By A Motorcyclist

Wed, 07 Oct 2009 07:07:02 GMT

Apologies to my dear readers as this blog has been on a hiatus due to the titled reason. Yes. I was attacked and almost got molested by a motorcyclist on last Wednesday, which is exactly one week from today. Sigh...

Flashbacks of that day. I woke up with a very bad feeling in my mind. It's like a sixth sense kinda thing. I knew something bad would happen that day, so I made it a point to be extra cautious over the things I do and my surroundings. I went to work with my dad as usual. In the office, I keep hitting on the table... getting my fingers trapped by the cupboard door... etc etc.

I told myself this. " Be careful when you are walking on the streets, because you might get hit by a car and die on the spot ". I was seriously thinking like that. There are some corporate exercises going on so we had to go to the bank, apply for some bank drafts on behalf of our clients.

Dad filled up all the application forms and walked to the bank, handed them the forms and they told him that we can come and collect them after having lunch. He came back, and we worked as usual. When lunch time comes, we both headed to the bank again and it seems like the officer is out for lunch. So, dad and I had our lunch nearby and thereafter, we returned to the bank to collect the drafts and mind you... that damn officer was still not back yet! The drafts are already ready, but pending the officer's signature only. We waited, and waited and waited until 1.45pm. It was already very late. I had to be back in my office by 2.00pm to carry forward our client's orders.

As a result, I went back to the office on my own. I've always been very cautious about this. I walked along the 'kaki lima' all the time until I had to cross the road. I walked out, looked at both sides of the road, looked at the back, walked further and preparing to cross the road. All of a sudden, without a sound nor heat... I felt like something was touching my left thigh from the back. I looked to the back from my left and I saw nothing! I looked to the right and all I see was a person in a damn big fully covered helmet, riding on a soundless motorcycle. He was groping me hard it's like a hard pinch!

His intention was to grope my butt but luckily, I was walking quite fast so I already moved a step forward and all he got was my thigh. But that doesn't stop him from proceeding to pinch me real hard. When I saw him, I immediately shouted, onlookers came over to watch and he fled within a split of a second. At that moment, I was still thinking that he was to snatch my bag instead of molesting me. I protected my bag, not myself. I continued shouting and among the crowd of witnesses, none of them offered their help in stopping him.

That is understandable because criminals nowadays might carry weapons. But when the molester fled, all of the witnesses who finished watching the incident quickly retracted themselves, pretended not to see when I stared at them in fear and shivers, and continued doing their own things. None of them came over to ask me if I need to lodge a police report, go to the clinics nearby for treatment or whatsoever. I was greatly disappointed.

The incident happened at one of the main roads in Seremban, and the area is one of the busiest place during lunch hours. I'm not trying to be racist, but as expected... the molester is a Malay! I often hear that these kind of molester on a motorcycle is a Malay. I suffered minor injury from that stupid incident (my thigh is bruised) but I am severely scarred mentally. It's seriously very traumatising. I find it hard for me to trust the safety of the roads out there. I experience great fear whenever I see people and especially motorcyclists.

There's no other way I could rescue myself from letting the same thing happened. I did all I could to ensure my own safety but it still happens. The motorcycle was modified. He hid at some blind spots from the angle I will not be able to see then rode over with great speed but no sound. There is seriously nothing I can do, it's not like I was walking alone on the back lanes... Which makes me think, no matter where you are... it's still very dangerous. I have lost faith on the society. Noone will ever help you when you're in need.

Right now I am still trying to overcome my fear and dare myself to blend in with the pedestrians. But I guess things are never gonna be the same again. Meanwhile, at least I'm back in the blogosphere right?

Only Memories Remain

Thu, 24 Sep 2009 04:16:12 GMT

I have thought about this issue many times before and it finally happens on one of my closest friend. Her ex-boyfriend passed away very recently due to a tragic accident. I really don't know about the incident in detail, I only found out about it today when I read my friend's blog. I seems like he was walking back from uni when a speeding car hit him and he sustained skull fracture and internal bleeding when sent to the hospital. Only his organs were functioning at the time, but not the brain. He had to be put on life support system for 24 hours in hopes of having his own ability to sustain himself but failed. Doctor had no choice but to remove the life support system and pronounced him dead.

It's really a very tragic thing to hear. JY is a final year engineering student at Monash University and given more time, he would be having a really bright future awaiting. Guess we really cannot go against fate. If it's fated that this would be the way, we really cannot do anything about it. At least he knows he's being loved and missed by many...

Back to the point of me writing this post. Imagine your ex died tragically all of a sudden. How would you deal with it? I have asked myself this same question many times before and I really cannot answer. Although it may sound like an ex is just an ex, not even your current boyfriend or girlfriend. Thing is, imagine this certain someone was once your everything in life and you have been so close to him/her for a period of time, remained friends even after the break up and suddenly you realise he or she is gone forever. I really don't know how to deal with this, seriously.

Which is why it's very important to be nice and appreciate everyone around us be it your family, friends, current or exes. Especially when you're dating someone and you did something real nasty to him/her, when one fine day he/she leaves this world suddenly you will have the regrets and guilt in you forever until the day you die. I have even extended my thought, what if your ex cut all ties and contact with you... no longer remaining as friends with you? Well, I guess you cannot force how the other party want to react and handle this but at least on my side, I would wish him/her all the best from afar.

I really hope I won't be the last to die among the significant people around me. It's very painful to see them leaving you one by one especially when it involves some sudden and tragic death. It's very unexpected. My friend's case, I feel it hardly too. Because I am quite close with this friend and she told me quite a number of things about her relationship with this guy. And I have seen the guy in person before, although we've never spoken to each other. It makes me think, one moment he's there... standing in front of me, walking, talking and enjoying himself. The other moment he's no longer breathing.

Imagine your ex, someone who used to be so close to you lying in the coffin... Cold and frozen... Never would he/she open his/her eyes to look at you again. Never will listen to you talking to him/her again... No matter how hard you try to wake him/her up. I can understand why my friend can't get herself to attend his funeral. I would not have the courage to attend too, if I am in her situation. I can't bear the sight of his motionless body, that would haunt me forever. Everything happened so sudden, I myself find it hard to believe to accept it.

Deepest condolence to his family members and friends. My prayers are with all of you. Rest in peace, CJY. Be strong, my dearest CXY. I will be your shoulder to cry on if you need me...

How I'm Spending My Holidays

Fri, 18 Sep 2009 09:00:00 GMT

First of all, Selamat Hari Raya to all the Muslims in Malaysia (especially my blog readers). For the non-Muslims, happy holidays! A super long weekend, finally! I've been waiting.

But due to some work schedule I couldn't go travelling. Must be back home everyday to work. So overnights at other places, no distant travellings =(

It's already Friday today! YES!!! I'm of my happiest mood today as compared to the previous months where all I feel is work, work and more work. So followings are what I'm gonna be doing to enjoy during the holidays. I know, you're not interested to know right? Since what I'll be doing have got nothing to do with you, but it's my blog and I wanna write it, LOL.

Saturday - Morning at 10.00 am... Green Box Karaoke with best pals as Ms. Eva's mini farewell. ( She's an air-stewardess and comes back once in a while for a short while, so you will often see us having mini farewells for her everytime she's about to fly back to Korea again. So it's not really a farewell also. ) Night at 7.00 pm, buffet steamboat at Lobak as a homecoming celebration for sis Ling! Total attendees would be 18 pax including moi. I'm a co-organiser and supposed to book the venue and has yet to do it as of now. Gosh I'm such a procrastinator. If I book the venue after the place is fully booked, I'm responsible for 18 starving souls.

Sunday - Celebrating mum's birthday, most probably at Cyberjaya for buffet. Has yet to confirm the venue. Again, I'm a co-organiser and have yet to do anything about it.

Monday - Finally get to stay at home without any activities planned so far. So I guess I can get my weekend chores done on this day. These include bathing my dog, bathing my neighbour's dog ( how ridiculous, the owner sucks! ), washing my lingerie... etc etc. BUT!!! A big turn-off. I'm working at night. For the US market because they don't have Hari Raya celebration.

Tuesday - Celebrating Lian's birthday at Green Box Karaoke at 11.00 am ( again!!! woo hoo ). MJ was the first to book the venue. Kiasu ma... Scared Raya holidays no more rooms available for 3 pax. Free for the rest of the day until night time. US market again!!!

Wednesday - Back to work already!!!

Spoof MV Of Taylor Swift

Mon, 14 Sep 2009 06:46:39 GMT

Recently Taylor Swift's song, You Belong With Me is such a big hit and you can almost see the MV on tv all the time. Undeniably, this is a nice song and I really like this song too. Being too free at work on a Monday, I decided to watch the video on youtube and guess what I found? Hilarious!~

This is the actual MV of the song.

And this is the spoof version someone made. I have seen lots of own made videos for this song but they did a really great job on this one. The timing and scenes are exactly like the actual one!

LOL. Two thumbs up from me =)

Maybank2u Scam

Mon, 07 Sep 2009 04:08:20 GMT

We love the internet. We do everything through the internet. We look for informations, buy clothings, buy accessories, read articles and journals... all via the internet. Even transferring funds from your bank account couldn't escape from this current trend. Undeniably, online banking is a truly convenient facility but we can also beware of the risks and scams.

Recently I have encountered a scamming scenario via email. This is what I saw when I first logged on to my Yahoomail.

I felt rather skeptical so I proceeded on viewing the content of this mail.

I didn't panic because I know very well that my account will definitely not be blocked due to inactivity or too many failed login attempts. I manage my online banking account well.

The most important thing to do is double check what you're reading. This scam is so cheaply done. Look at the 'convincing' logo. It's not sharp and defined. Seriously, it's some printscreen material. Not a genuine one.

Then, there's this stupid typo error! What's BECOUSE? What the heck??? Take a look at the link. It's written as mybank2u instead of maybank2u. And at the bottom of the content, the url starts with https:// instead of a normal http://.

I hovered my cursor over the links and none indicates it'll link me to maybank2u at the bottom of my browser. I see some alien links. I dare not click the links so maybe when you click it you will see a fictitious maybank2u login page or some virus affected page. My advice is not to click on the links.

Beware of the scam, people!~
