Charity Fair by Amante Nail Spa & Body Care

If you're a friend of mine on my Facebook, you would know that both the parents of my student were both killed on the tragedy of MH17. :( Both of them are gone, FOREVER. I got the this sad news from my colleague when I checked my whatssap messages during the intermission of a chamber performance and I couldn't enjoy the rest of it. My heart sank, and my mind went blank, it was just so heartbroken. I feel sorry for the kids, she's a lovely and adorable kid and I really hope that this tragedy doesn't change her beautiful personality. 

Things happened, good and bad ones. There's no way we could know how the unfortunate one feels unless it happened to someone we know. We could help, even it's very little, but we could still lend a hand.

Straits Quay | Penang

I was looking back some photos on the phone, and found these beautiful pictures that I took when I visited Penang few months ago. They are the reason why I had to blog even I didn't plan to. :p This might not be the best time to blog as I believe we are all still sadden by the news of MH17, and the missing MH370. But I believe that we needed more positive things in life than dwelling in sorrow which wouldn't do any good. So here's some nice pictures to cheer you up a little perhaps? :) 

Straits Quay in Penang!

I wish I can own one of these one day. 

Met Xiang's childhood friend who is working in Penang.

Us. :)

Our lunch menu of the day!

Blue Reef! ♥♥

According to Xiang's friend this is one of the most popular western restaurant in Straits Quay. We had to wait for about 15-20 mins (so we had a short stroll along the mall while we were waiting).

So crowded!

From seafood galore menu- Scallops, calamari rings, prawns, fish fillet (Spanish Mackerel) , salad and chips. RM 40

Their calamari rings is the best I ever had! Really loved it!! ♥♥

Benefit They're Real! Push-up Liner

There's a product in town, a makeup innovation that every girls would love! 

- Benefit They're Real! Push-up Liner. 

If you know me well, you'll know that I'm real lazy girl to put on makeup. On any of my casual days, I wouldn't bother to put on any makeup on. But there're times when we feel like putting some makeup on to cheer ourselves little, and the two things I will definitely wear are EYELINER and MASCARA. I'll even skip foundation application most of the time I'm such a weird girl LOL.

At first glance I thought it was liquid eyeliner.

But it's not, it's gel liner in a pen!

Long-wearing, smudge-proof, waterproof, lash-hugging.

It has soft and custom angled tip. You just have to twist the bottom of the pen and it's ready to use!

The simple look of me with only mascara and they're real! push-up liner. :)

The application is rather simple and easy, and it's more portable than the regular gel eyeliner. I think it's designed for people like me - a lazy girl who still wants to look good. Now I've another good option than liquid eyeliner yay!! ^.^

Bali Part I - Pura Luhur Uluwatu & Padang-Padang Beach

First post on my Bali trip! Finally!!! So inefficient of me :( . The one saddest thing happened on this trip was my camera failed on me! I couldn't even take ONE SHOT after I arrived in BALI! So during this whole trip, all the pictures were taken with Xiang's phone (Samsung Note III), the quality of the pictures is still acceptable except the night shot.  

We actually went for water sports in the morning on the first day, but no pictures were taken cause we all want to enjoy our water activity. We did snorkelling, parasailing (parachuting by the beach), flying fish....my first experience on snorkelling and it was scary and fun though! 

Then we went to Uluwatu  for its fantastic view! 

Awesome view of ocean from the cliff!

Lots of naughty and hungry monkeyyysssss!

Trying to feed them, I WAS SO SCARED OF THEM! That explains my awkward pose. :( 

A group picture! :)

Ancient walls, walking towards the cliff.

It was a little scary though looking down from the top of the cliff, TOO HIGH and I felt like I could fall off any minute. 

But the view is so amazing down there, couldn't help myself to take more photos and enjoy this awesome scenery.

Many stairs for you to climb in such a scorching hot weather. But this wouldn't stop us from going for more breathtaking views.

The was a temple but it was closed. 

The slow-motion video taken by Xiang's phone. I'm very impressed by the spectacular invention by mature nature.

We then went for Padang-Padang Beach for a short break.

I couldn't believe why all the ang-mohs enjoy playing with water at 3 or 4pm in the afternoon, it was so hot! We were just sitting there chilling at the shading area.

It was still nice though, chit-chatting with the gang while embracing the wind by the seaside.

What else we can do than taking a selfie if you forget to bring extra clothes to the beach?

♥♥

Travel Tips:

1. Plan properly for your Bali itinerary, it is quite troublesome to travel from one spot to another (sometimes it took about an hour or more than that). 

2. Try to communicate well with your engaged driver/ tour guide about your itinerary before your arrival. 

3. Get your tour guide to help you to negotiate for the price of the water sport activities.

4. Bananas and peanuts will be given to you when you entered Uluwatu Temple, at some charges.

5. Take good care of your belongings as the monkeys could be too playful and steal it from you! Avoid wearing caps, hats or sunglasses.

6. You'll need to wear their 'sarung' if you do not wear long pants/skirts on your visit to any temples.

The Other Side of Me

I needed some courage......to write this post cause I usually don't blog much about my personal life. Just done Skyping with my sister who's in Canada right now, she is asking me to BLOG MORE BLOG MORE. I always wanted to blog more, but at the end I'll do something else which I think I never get enough of. That's the passion I suppose? I spend lots of time doing it and I still don't feel that's enough. 

 " When you do something that you passionate about, you don't mind to repeat doing the same thing for 24 hours" - Quote by Emma Soh 

 Hahahaa...sounds so thick face but that's the way I feel. :p

This, simple life of me.

Some of the short videos I posted on Instagram. I know I'm no where a concert pianist, but I love the fact that I'm improving bit by bit, day by day. Hope you'll enjoy my playing. :)
