The most amazing place for Sunsets... the Sky Gallery in Pattaya....

When my tour leader decided to bring us to the Sky Gallery, we were anticipating a restaurant on top of some building and thought nothing much of it. 
But when we arrived at the Sky Gallery, we were astounded, we were mesmerized and seriously, I have to say  that it is hard to find a more glorious place to have a drink, chill and spend an hour or so with friends or family members, or with your date/ spouse....

Loy Krathong in Pattaya, Thailand



We had just arrived at the U-Tapao International Airport in Pattaya, Thailand and passed the immigration check point when some gorgeous models (AirAsia Thailand staff??) handed us some lotus shaped bread and urged us to take some pictures with them. 

PUTRAJAYA INTERNATIONAL HOT AIR BALLOON FIESTA'S GREAT EIGHTH INSTALMENT


I have always found those Hot Air Balloons fascinating.. but I have not gotten the chance to get up on one... a fact that I hope can be remedied one day soon...

Let me share 3 fascinating facts out of many others.....

  • A sheep, a duck and a chicken were the first passengers aboard a hot air balloon. They also fortunately survived the very first hot air balloon flight, which lasted just about eight minutes... and all of this was in 1783, when the first hot air balloon was set to fly over the heads of Louis XVI, Marie Antoinette, and the French court in Versailles..
  • The longest hot air balloon flight ever recorded was piloted by Richard Branson. It began in Japan and ended safely in northern Canada. This hot air balloon flight happen to be the fastest recorded as well, flying across the skies at 245 miles per hour!!
  • Did you know you cannot fly hot air balloon flights in the rain. This is because the heat inside of the balloon can turn the rain water to boiling temperatures on top of the balloon, thereby destroying hot air balloon fabric.

70% of Malaysians are changing the way they work...



Have you ever found yourself working from somewhere other than your office cubicle? Like that time you answered work emails whilst down at the bistro with friends for your usual Friday night catch up? How about that time you frantically rushed off an important report from the nearby café because the Wi-Fi at work failed you yet again? If the scenarios above struck a chord, it could be that you are one of many Malaysians with an ever-changing work habit, and whose regular routine may not necessarily even involve stepping into the office.

Being a blogger, I know for sure I have done that, and I need to bring my lap top on my trips and such so I can update my blogs and such....

PAIRING UP FOR THE LOVE OF FOOD & GOOD SHOES

I just heard something pretty interesting....!!! PUMA Malaysia is doing a collaboration with friendly neighbourhood joint, The Bee! The collaboration between PUMA with the restaurant cum community space was stemmed from their mutual love for good taste and distinctive style from the rest.

More then 1000 break their silence on violence against women....

Early Sunday morning I was at Padang Merbok. It was the first time I was there as somehow I never quite arrived there before. I have been to the Royal Lake Gardens and the Tugu Peringatan for as long as I can remember, but somehow I missed out on Padang Merbok.  But I finally got there on early Sunday morning...

The Healthy Cat Checklist


 Cats are wonderful pets to have. Independent with unique personalities of their own, cats are fuss-free and low maintenance pets. Nevertheless, like many pet owners, you may still want to give your furkid undivided attention, love and care. After all, being attentive to your cat’s wellbeing can help prevent potential health issues for your pet.

So with this, WHISKAS Malaysia and I am sharing ways to recognise the signs of a healthy cat to help our furkids live long and healthy – in all nine lives...

Enjoy Uplifting Experience with Kleenex® 3-Ply Scented Facial Tissues!!!

You really have to admit there is nothing like the smell of fragrant freshly-washed laundry, cookies baking in the oven, or  freshly blooming flowers to put a smile on your face. Lovely scents simply lift our spirits, making us feel more positive and nurturing, even when our environment is stressful or overwhelming. 


It has been said that our sense of smell is 10,000 times more sensitive than our other senses, therefore it is pretty clear why scents may affect us more than other sensations. Yet, why are smells so strongly linked to emotions?

STRAWBERI & KARIPAP HELLO GOLD COAST

Ok, this is going to be a mix rojak dual language post (Bahasa Malaysia and English) for all Malaysian friends as the story is actually in both English (some broken English is to be expected....) and Bahasa Malaysia.... 


Strawberi & Karipap is a kids tv series on Astro Ceria that depicts the story of Nini ( Mia Sara ) and Haikal ( Raykarl Iskandar ) who often have a different opinion from each other, but then they came to realize something they have in common which is a perfect family.
Nini and Haikal lives on rotation with Lisa and Hairi because Nini's mom and Haikal's dad happen to be pursuing their studies abroad. Sick and tired of moving between Lisa and Hairi's homes, Nini and Haikal conspired to unite both Lisa and Hairi as well as their parents...

Anyway, this latest tele movie depicts the story where Lisa and Hairi have gotten married.. but they are unhappily married as they are forever fighting like cats and dogs, to the exasperation of the two kids...

Zero-Dandruff Hair that smells amazing...

Isn't it a bane when you suffer from dandruff and it makes your scalp itch and messes up by leaving flakes all over your black or navy blue top. I would know as I do have problematic scalp and dandruff happens when I do not do much about it and this can pretty much make me feel bad and embarrassed about myself...


Since its debut on CLEAR Malaysia’s official Youtube platform, ‘Pelangi Cinta’, which you really have to watch... have you watched it?? If not, I have it below this blog post - be sure to watch it....CLEAR’s very own webisode series about love and confidence has garnered  a viewership of more than 2.3 million.

Sunway Medical Centre celebrates World Diabetes Day


So yours truly was over at the Sunway Pyramid early Saturday morning to attend the Sunway Medical Centre's World Diabetes Day event. Diabetes has always been something I worry a lot about as my husband has been a diabetic for 20 years now....and both of us always fear the complications that might arise from it. 

But at the same time, he tends to be stubborn and self indulgent and gives in to his craving for all the things he should now, such as rice, fizzy drinks and cigarettes and do not exercise that much... and this stresses me out no end though we do try our best to counter it with medicine.

And it was also because of Diabetes that my husband suffered from two mild stroke attacks (thankfully they were mild!!)...

Columbia Asia Master Chef Challenge 2015


For many Malaysians, it is no secret that they live to eat more than they eat to live....Self -reward and indulgence would never be complete without having food in the equation. Malaysians are willing to travel across great distances in pursuit of a bowl of authentic Penang Assam Laksa or even a lovely plate of East Coast's favourite Nasi Dagang.

And it's not just about eating. Malaysians love to savour their flavours. Malaysian food are among the most flavourful in the world... The food have to be sweet, salty, savoury, sour, spicy and the list goes on.... Just take me , myself as an example...I love my Milo kosong kaw.... for the chocolatey taste.. and my tomyam soup must have the right amount of sour, spicy, salty and sweet... Many Malaysians are just like me, we do not like bland food and that is why to us, Malaysian food is always the best....

Let your Pre-Schoolers "SHIMMER AND SHINE" on a magical genie adventure..


As a mum, as my child was growing up, I monitored her TV programmes and well, I always allowed my daughter when she was a pre-schooler to only watch Disney Junior, Disney Channel, Nickelodeon and Nick JR which I trusted to have the best programmes to help with her development as well as improving on her English speaking skills...Besides, they have the cutest characters that sometimes, I am drawn to plop down beside my little one and watch it together with her too....

Indulging in good food with HUGE savings


“The only way I can cope with the cost of living is would be to marry a rich man.” That was what a young Malaysian graduate said after recounting her need of having to pay her father RM500 each month so she could use his car to get to work. She also said she does not have enough savings for a down payment for a house on her meagre salary, and has to share a house with seven others.

Though some  people deemed her as being a spoilt brat for demanding a cushy life almost immediately after graduating, many others agree with her over the rising cost of living in Malaysia

“DON’T IGNORE THE PAIN!”


I must admit I suffer from back pain, muscle aches and knee pain every once in a while. I think it is unavoidable since age is catching up with me and my bones , muscles and all are slowly but surely deteriorating.....sighhhh....

Back pain is quite a common problem. Most episodes of back pain get better quickly. Simple analgesics (pain-relieving medication) and a change of activity are generally all that is needed.

About half of all people who get back pain will have however have further episodes. The first step to managing back pain is to rule out the possibility of any medical problem, so it is important to get it checked out if the pain is constantly there….

Muscle aches are known as muscle pain, myalgia, or simply pain in the muscles. Muscle aches are also pretty common. Almost everybody has likely experienced discomfort in his or her muscles at some point because almost every part of the body has muscle tissue, so this type of pain can be felt practically anywhere.

Take A JOURNEY THROUGH TIME this November

There was once upon ago, I did not know there were so many luxury watches- and some that even cost more then even a luxury bungalow, then I some how got to know a friend who was a watch enthusiast, and I learn a little about Rolex and Patek Phillippe and so on....It was definitely fascinating and so intriguing...so it will be a wonderful opportunity for me to take A JOURNEY THROUGH TIME this 20th to 27th November 2015....

My hair makeover with Daisuke Salon de Coiffure


One of the easiest ways to perk up your mood is to have a makeover. A hair makeover done by a professional can dramatically perk up your current hairstyle and inject some vivacity in your life.

Thus I felt like I did need some pick me up as well as something different in my life to get me going...and so I headed to my favourite hair salon, Daisuke Salon de Coiffure... Stepping foot inside Daisuke Salon is always fun, like visiting friends because everyone there from Daisuke-san and his lovely wife, Ai to all the stylists are very friendly and accomodating, unlike some other places where I have been to where services can be stilted and awkward....

BIO-OIL, THE SCAR SPECIALIST OFFERS WOMEN SOLUTIONS FOR THEIR SCARS


Almost all of us have scars that we obtain from life which will serve as memories and lessons; some good and some painful ones, but well "scars" are always quite painful....

 What is a scar? There are two different main kind of scars…

1)    A scar is a permanent patch of skin that grows over a wound. It forms when your body starts to heals itself after you get a cut, scrape, burn or so on...

You can also get scars from surgery that cuts through the skin, infections like chickenpox, or skin conditions like acne. Scars are quite thicker, pinker or shinier, than the normal tone of your skin.

Scars can fade over time but never go away completely. If the way an external  scar looks bothers you, various treatments might minimize it. These can include surgical revision, dermabrasion, laser treatments, injections, chemical peels,  creams and oils...

Let's go on "ONE CRAZY CRUISE" setting sail this 20 NOVEMBER.......

Being a mom of a tween girl, I am sure my daughter and all other kids her age would definitely be looking forward to this new Nickelodeon offering.... heaven knows, the parents would be as well, at least I am !!! Heheheh....
