Plenty Thoughts!

"A drama reflect my thinking, a flirting alert my changing..."



I just finished watching a Hong Kong Drama < 女人最痛〉.. It was a realist movie, and after watching it, I've plenty of thoughts in my mind... It's really express something from mine, I was thinking will I be like just in the drama... I haven't work in a society yet, but I couldn't make sure what I will be after that... It really brings me to think of the issues of personality and attitude... Being selfish, being realistic.. Is success need sacrifice?!

London's Christmas, London's Fireworks

Hiya London!!

I were being there for 9 days to have my chillax Christmas and 2011 New Year celebration..
The purpose of staying there for such a long time for sure to explore their Boxing Day culture and experience my first life ever celebrating New Year at London~ Eye...
Imagine I posted every schedule for our 9 days trip!!! =,= I'm sure my post will be burst!
So, I will just let my picture to talk since it's the best way which you don't expect to read a bunch of words right...^^
I posted some pictures where some attraction that some people wouldn't know...

In general, most of the people know London's attraction would be Big Ben, London Bridge, British Museum, Buckingham Palace and etc...Instead of talking these places that people already familiar with, I prefer to show some nice markets and some nice places in briefly..



St. Pancreas is behind me..where a place that has an awesome architecture of building to discover..And my first sight on it was " jaw dropping"~

Oxford Street and Regent Street...These streets are linked and they are girl's shopping HEAVEN!! Branded? Fast Fashion Brand? Everything are here!

A random church nearby Kingcross where I think it has amazing door!!

26th of December, I met my bestie Maple in front of Burberry shop...After having a blast shopping with her, we went to China Town to have our first meal, it's our dinner tho~ XD
China Town, wherever it is...It's the best food heaven!
Had our Dinner at Four Season, China Town.

27th of December, Harrods (considered as luxury shopping departments) was having their sales too....I strongly recommend this as it is really a British way to shop...Everything inside is well-decorated included their washrooms~ I just can say...I will go Harrods AGAIN!

As both of us want to take picture with Harrods, but the angle wasn't that perfect...Waste~

Simultaneously, you MUST NOT miss out the "English Afternoon Tea" in Harrods~
As I've just mentioned, Harrods are considered as a luxury place, so you've to expect the spending on the Afternoon Tea....Anyhow, it's a good try right! The place with nice environment, nice service, nice food, nice pianist...I'm sure you'll feel comfortable there while having your tea-time...


Tea-Time at Harrods...


Michael Jackson in Harrods!!!

Awww~ Giant Teddy!! Zoom in to see the price~ ^o^

We spent the whole day in Harrods from 10am to 7pm!! omg~ Then me and my friend decided to walk back from Harrods to our Hostel where located at Russel Square...haha~ I know we were crazy walking down the street like that while winter! LOLx...
However, it was a good decision that we've made because we found a place while on the way which was really surprising....

I didn't know what was the statue behind but this is not the main point..XD

Tadah~ We saw Winter Wonderland at Hyde Park where it is a fun fair opened for Chritmas Celebration...It's amazing out there...^^

On 29th December, we decided to shop in the market instead of those outlets or departments...
In my opinion, Covert Garden is a very best place to look up and the market brings different feeling compare to others...There have lot of shops and foods, I just simply like it~

Day~

Night!

30th December, we went to Spitalfield Market...You love vintage?! Then there will be a great place for you!!!

Vintage oh Vintage~ I took this picture because I like the "ah ma" mannequin~ haha!

There's a lot of place or street you can walk around there...But the market in Spitalfield closed at 4pm~ =,= It's kinda early I know...But there are still shops outside where basically they're selling vintage clothes, vintage fashion and everything is in VINTAGE!

After that, we walked along Bank Street then St. Paul...
St. Paul is one of the attraction destination in London as well...This cathedral has a fascinating history and it looks awesome with inspiring interior and features...

St. Paul~

Part of St.Paul behind us~


31st Dec - 1st Jan, 2011
Big Ben~ Here I come!!
We were there to have our New Year Celebration at London Eye and Big Ben..


The place is flooded with crowd start from 6pm!!
Seriously, it was a very good experience on having count down in front of London Eye, and besides Big Ben... However, this will be my first time ever and will be my last time as well!!
Why?? Read through....
I reached there at 7pm++..
We suppose to find some place to sit down and planned to enjoy our dinner...Unfortunately, the cafes or restaurant nearby are all close...Left only two cafes, one Tesco!
Everyone were fighting to buy thing in Tesco so that to grab something to eat, and as you can imaging there had super long queue in front of those two cafes...
Then, we only noticed that they limit amount of people to get in the place to see fireworks nearby Big Ben and London Eyes...That's why everyone was preparing and waited there from 6pm!

At last, we have no clue about that so we bought some food and drinks from Tesco and started to wait for the time to pass by....
We started our waiting from 8pm..
Used 1 hours 30 minutes to queue for Toilet after that!!!

Queuing for toilet....take me 1hr30mins!!!wtf~




Taking picture with london eyes...


Seriously, this event full of foreigners but not local people...As I think the Brits wouldn't choose to be so stupid for waiting several hours to see 10mins fireworks....We did that tho~! LOLx..
Waiting for 4 hr in such freezing weather surrounded by different people especially those black skin one....Thus, it was a tough period...LOLx~

And finally, left 5 mins to 12!!!

London Boxing Day's items grab!!

holla~
I've just back from London today since I departed on 24th of December..
Photos of London will be uploaded soon once I've receive all those photos from my friend... ^^

Well, the purpose of posting this article is to show what I'd bought from London for their December HUGE sale which they call it as Boxing Day (26th Dec)...
What I mean about HUGE sale would be most of the shops will have about 50-70% discount for selected items include luxury goods such as Burberry, Alexandra Wang, Armani, Gucci, Prada and etc are all on sale...

However, you will need some luck and fate with the items that you wish for..Because, there will have heavy crowd to grab things that they want, they grab items just like fighting.. It's a very crazy scene actually!!

I actually went there to gain experience, to explore how Boxing Day looks like...For me, I promise I will never go for 2nd times again!!! It was really crowded and the whole street full of people especially ASIAN!! And, some of my friends started their queue at 7am to wait for the store to open at 10am...Once the door open, that's the nightmare started! See video posted below on Boxing Day, probably this kind of scene will happen in Selfridge Department in Oxford Street, London...But I didn't go there for queuing.. haha~ Because I prefer to have more sleep than grabbing those goods...LOLx




That's the Boxing Day looks like~ Fight for sale items, once finish, it's finished!! That's why I say you must need to have some luck...LOLx

Well, I didn't grab anything on the 26th (the exact Boxing Day) because the crowd really blew my mood off..:( It's still a very good experience tho~

So, most of the thing that I bought were after the Boxing Day.. Properly grab things from Harrods (where a very famous shopping center) and Knightbridge Street and some famous market in London....

Items in the picture: Mulberry Margaret Shoulder Bag, 2 pieces of Urban Oufitters clothes, a blazer from Public Beware, Zara Small Shoulder Bag, Skin care from Lush Fresh Handmade Cosmetic.
p/s: Sorry about I couldn't show you what's inside the Burberry paper bag because that's my BF's present..haha~

I found this bag coincidentally in Harrods since I was very disappointed when I couldn't find anything that I like for the whole day besides this... This bright colour shoulder bag has brighten my day actually.. :)



It has 2nd and 4th choices in the store that time, and I chose to buy the 4th one which is in plum colour that I felt in love on it at the first sight!!


The Mulberry Margaret Bag is named after the Princess Margaret as a tribute. The metal in front with the words " We Believe in Tea and Cake". Great plum colour and a classic timeless go-anywhere design is perfectly my choice~ After discount it's £360+ and it was £550++.

Next, I would like to recommend the Lush Fresh Handmade Cosmetic which their ingredient are all natural and without preservation!! They have very special product's usage such as facial serum in Bar Soap size!! I really like this shops and the fresh natural smells of them~ Therefore, I bought their absolute great mask after I tried it on my hand, I'm in love with it!! And I also bought their freshly toner and scrub-like cleanser which both of these are perfectly match with their mask!!


Love Lettuce Mask that I bought and you have to keep it in the fridge and used within 4 weeks of manufacture because it does NOT contain any preservation~ And it's really make my skin feel very comfortable after using this..I really love it!! well worth~!!!

After that, the most important shop that I want to recommend is the Public Beware shops!! Damn~ Their clothes designs are so much different with others...There is only a shop locates just nearby Liverpool Old Spitalfield Market...I bought a blazer which is grey in colours with stripe, the pattern is shown as below.

£40+ after discount, was £61


There is also a London's must shop store that name Urban Outfitters which is also British's brand..They have several branches in London, and I grab them in Covert Garden Market's store...Sale items that I bought are all half price!!! Cool~ £30 each, was £60 each!!!



Simple basic clothes which can easily match with different ideas...

Eventually, London would be a nice place to shop but sometimes, shopping still needs some luck and fate to see and grab what you want and like...

I wish yall have an awesome shopping spree for the new year!!!



New Year, New Image, New Items

Dance to live

Peeps~!!
Have u hitz the dance floor in da club yet?!

Well, of course I miss the dance floor already babes!!!!
awwww~ I miss my girls and my only boy....my Disaster...

30th August 2010, Auto City "Cheerz Da Cwordz"

Here's the latest performance that we did before I came to UK....
Competition for "Cheerz Da Crowz" in Auto City.
Dance elements focus on street jazz and girl styles...



Feel free to drop me some comments after watching the shows...
I need more feedbacks...
thanks & enjoy~
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Brief Introduction for Disaster:
Disaster (the dance team) had formed one year ago with 5 girls who'd just knew each other for several months. Members include me, Vera, Ashley, Cisi and Jamie...We had trained for the purpose for the competition, and the dance elements that we trained were hip hop, break dance and locking...
We'd achieved the 2nd runner up for Ultimaxx Dance Competition (the first competition for the crew), then 1st runner up for Youth Dance competition in Nibong Tebal...

But, after a few months later, our two members (Cisi, Jamie) have left from the crew due to the reason of further their studies...
However, the enthusiasm are still there when the crew left only three girls...
After pausing for half year, the Disaster (Maggie, Vera and Ashley) had came into the town again...Yet, we'd decided to take part one of the competition "MY FM BlockBuster" where received a lot of good comments from the audiences..

Until a boy named Kelvin has joint us in the early July 2010....Followed by Raye for the purpose of Digi Live Tour competition that achieved 2nd Runner up, and then Yeezie for Cheerz Da Crowdz competition in August which was the latest competiton that we did...

Few weeks from the competition later, the leader which is me had left them to further my studies in UK... Ashley is now replacing my street jazz class in Fresh Beat Dance Academy...
But our journey are still on the go...

Here's some pictures for our dance's journey:

30th August 2010, Auto City "Cheerz Da Cwordz"

June 2010, "MY FM Blockbuster."


May 2010, Digi Live Tour 2nd runner up..


2009, "Ultimaxx Dance Competition" 2nd Runner Up.


Nevertheless, I believe our spirit and soul will never ends when there have no leader beside....
Will be back 7 months later my girls and boy...T.T

All of us have different dreams to achieve, but we have the common one to do together in our heart, to do what we love to be....Always have dance in our life...



we never be the champion before, but we gonna be someday...

Christmas Market

Hi peeps~ How are you doing?! Hopefully, everyone is doing great ya~

There's a festive in the run up to Christmas at Grey’s Monument, Grey Street and Grainger Street where are some street that I always need to walk along if I want to go Tesco to grab some food...
When I first step my feet on this Christmas Market, first thing that came into my mind was " UK Pasar Malam." ^o^
Despite of the market doesn't that big as ours in Malaysia one, it has represented the happy and fun of this coming Christmas...So it wouldn't disappointed me tho~







Just like our Pasar Malam, that gives us a very local gourmet ingredient of Malaysia, while for their Christmas Market, you can find a very real taste of Europe. You can get a curry wurst from Germany, waffles from Holland, paella from Spain and crepes – both sweet and savoury from France.

However, there have one thing that is so much different with our "Pasar Malam", which is their price doesn't seem to have like "Pasar Malam's" price instead... What I really expected before I came was, I thought their price will take care of our pocket compare to usual one, but it seemed I'm obviously wrong~ haha!

Anyhow, it is still a very fun place to hang around and of course not to miss out any chance to grab something scrumptious to eat...I'd spotted the Nougat with various of choices which is always my favorite, and it then end my 15quid up to have these Nougat!!!! ~hurt~ Regardless the blood sucking price, I did feel satisfied enough to have my favorite Nougat that really taste soooo goooood indeed...
I strongly recommend Tiramisu flavor Nougat. weee^^


Big Mussel- Seafood and Grill Restaurant

After the Christmas Market, me and my friend were decided to go for dinner and we hope to get something more local instead of China Town.. So, we went to Quayside, the Big Mussel Seafood and Grill restaurant...Nothing much to talk about this restaurant because I've fell in love with their seafood and superb value for money!!
My Fruits Pasta Seafood


My friend's Big Grill and Mussels' Platter

Took a photo at Northumberland Street with their Christmas light decoration while on the way back to my warmy dorm...

That's all for my simple night!!!

Urban Decay


Hiya my girls,
I'd bought the make up palette in Boots last few weeks ago with the offered for the 3 for 2 promotion which means buy 3 related products and the cheapest get free!!

One of my friend was so keen on finding a basic-must-have eye shadow, and we'd chosen the Urban Decay Naked Palette for her.."The
pigment-rich with an ultra-soft texture with 12th gorgeous neutral colors eye shadow, very creamy water proofed eye pencil with black and brown colors, and a famous urban decay eyeshadow primer potion..."A level of enthusiasm fell for us to not miss out this pretty promotion with this gorgeous must-have palette!!!


The actual price of the Urban Decay Naked Palette is
£27.50..
But but, me and my friends had decided to buy this together so with the 3 for 2 offered, end up we can buy two free one!!!
So it finally cost me only £18.33 (MYR 91.65 based on 5 exchange rate)



Not to forget to try it out with a simple nature make-up on myself..
I'd used the nature brown color eye pencil to be my eye-liner instead of using the cool-fierce black color.. After I'd tried the brown color eye pencil, I'm officially fall for it..!! ^^
Of course, black color's eye pencil will still be useful according to the occasion like party or night-out with sexy outfit, or wanted to be a cool cold-blooded woman from the crowd...

Love love Naked!
