So the King of Pop has left us...
And what an apt tribute it is for the Queen of Pop to pay homage to the King.
Rest in Peace, Mr Jackson.

H1N1 draws close to home

grateful
She was confined in the isolation ward with high fever days after returning from her vacation.
Fortunately, turned out it was'nt H1N1.
And she got a really nice comfy ward because she was a suspected case and i heard they showered those suspected patients with really hospitable service. Hospitable service in the hospital, how ironic. Hehehehe...
Anyway, mommy is discharged today, and all's back to normalcy.
You hear about H1N1 day in day out, and to actually be in such close proximity to the ongoings, and to witness the chaos at the hospital really hits home the intensity and unpredictability of the situation.
I'm just glad things ended well for us this time round.....

CoQ10!

What is Q10 you ask? Well, I yahooed the answer for you below:
====================
Wrinkles appear when skin loses its elasticity. This is due to decreased collagen production and collagen crosslinking. Everyday life, cell metabolism, exposure to sun and other environmental factors, toxins, cigarette smoke - all result in production of free radicals. Those overactive pesky molecules or atoms have odd electrons on their orbits and try to find a balance. They either give away the odd electron or find a pair for it, thus making another molecule unstable, turning it into another free radical.
While this process is natural and unavoidable as a part of metabolism, too many free radicals cause dangerous chain reactions that destroy cellular compounds and can damage DNA, proteins and lipids (fats). When it comes to skin aging, free radicals interfere with collagen production and cause premature aging.
Coenzyme Q10 has exceptional antioxidant properties. Studies show that it can effectively counteract free radical damage and provide significant protection against UVA-induced depletion of cell membrane. In other words, it will prevent damage to collagen and elastin production process and help you avoid wrinkles.
CoQ10 is so powerful, it is able to reduce cancer tumors and minimize stroke consequences that are due to suddenly increased levels of free radicals. So when applied topically, it can provide extra protection for your skin and produce a dramatic anti-wrinkle effect.
================
I can't wait to try this new power product out! Hehehehe....

Amite!

A-mei is back with a new album!
Her new album titled "Amite" ("阿密特" - the indigenous Peinan tribe name 阿密特 is A-Mei's personal native name) is released in four different versions. There will be a different version for these four areas - Taiwan / China / Hong Kong / Spore+Malaysia.
According to reports, the Taiwan album version should contain the most original and accurate attitude that Ah Mei wishes to portray with her Amite alter-ego as her recording company feels that the Taiwanese's general level of acceptance of all types of music is very high.
The HK version would have a few of the mandarin tracks recorded as Canto tracks.
And in Singapore, I heard they have censored quite a few songs from the album.
I am soooooo going to buy the album when i'm in HK next month!!!

Letting go
Jun. 18th, 2009 | 12:32 am
mood:
contemplative
Back in Jan this year I wrote a blog entry Forget the Stuff You Can't Change and in that entry I said "Forget the stuff you can’t change. That will be my ethos for the year ahead and beyond!"
Little did i realise, not long after writing that entry, i totally forgotten about the ethos i promised myself.
Today while watching telly I was once again reminded of this. And I'm glad it did.
I have to say, mentally and emotionally, the past months had been much to be desired. The Taipei trip triggered many things, and it set me on a self reflecting journey. And the more i reflected, the more i got bogged down. I became so determined in setting things right, everything affected me, I felt I was tip toeing in life after that, constantly questioning if i'm doing or not doing things that is purposeful to life, whether have I taken the right path, whether my decisions on certain things are grounded...bla bla bla....
Its exhausting..... to say the least.
And I'm not saying this constant questioning and reflection is not a good thing.
But when you get bogged down with all these things, many of which you can't control, it affects you in negative ways.
I think I think too much. No...I KNOW i think too much. And i get affected by things that are beyond me.
Understand things that are beyond control and letting go.
Let go. Just let go.
I need to consciously remind myself from now on. I must.

Finding our very own happy endings
Jun. 15th, 2009 | 10:37 pm
mood:
contemplative

So today, i took a day off from work and stayed home. I was lazin' around and decided I wanted to watch the movie that I've wanted to watch but didn't got round doing it. So I turned on my MacBook, logged on to the world wide web and wala....I was watching "He's Just Not That Into You".
I must say, the movie has a very very witty script, and how the characters are intertwined to form a flawless piece, made the whole film highly captivating. After watching the movie, it reaffirms my believe that life can be simple, but humans complicate things.
(Well, humans are complex creatures to start with)
I especially liked the protagonist GiGi. i find her utterly hopeful, and unimaginably resilient even after umpteen servings of emotional wreckage. Her hopeless romantic notions even though may seem deplorably silly at times, appealed to me and I hate to say it but i find this "I want my happy ending" cliche....well, sweet, and well..... admirable.
I have too much pragmatism in me to be like her, maybe that's something i need to work on. Maybe all of us need our third act twist, the unexpected declaration of love. There is alot to think about. Love, life, and the complexities of it all.
Such a beautifully scripted film, I especially love the ending narration that went like this:
"Every movie we see, Every story we're told implores us to wait for it, the third act twist, the unexpected declaration of love, the exception to the rule. But sometimes we're so focused on finding our happy ending we don't learn how to read the signs. How to tell from the ones who want us and the ones who don't, the ones who will stay and the ones who will leave. And maybe a happy ending doesn't include a guy, maybe... it's you, on your own, picking up the pieces and starting over, freeing yourself up for something better in the future. Maybe the happy ending is... just... moving on. Or maybe the happy ending is this, knowing after all the unreturned phone calls, broken-hearts, through the blunders and misread signals, through all the pain and embarrassment you never gave up hope."
Maybe the happy ending is... just... moving on. I like that.

It took her so long to come up with this album after winning the contest last year.
It just goes to show some things are worth the wait。

I am now a Lab rat!

![]() | ![]() A global leader and authority in men's skincare, Lab Series is solely dedicated to men and their skin's unique needs. Since 1987, the elite team of doctors, scientists and skin care specialists of the Lab Series Research Center has developed high-performance, technologically advanced skincare, hair and shaving essentials to keep men looking healthy, comfortable and well-groomed. |
I have been using Clarins and Origins skincare for quite awhile now, and have been thinking of switching to another range.
So today i attended a Lab Series Private event, to see what they had to offer. And it was such an interesting workshop! There were lots of hands on activities to try out the products. The trainer taught everyone the right way to shave, wash, tone and moisturise. And they even got the Lab Series poster boy, manhunt 2008 winner Gordon Tan to give demonstrations on how to utilise the products. Kudos to them for putting so much effort for an event with less than 10 participants!
What's most important was after getting to shave, cleanse and moisturise using the products, I was totally sold on the Lab Series proposition.
It really is very impressive!
And you should have guessed by now...... all the above led to another pocket explosion!
I spent so much moolah, I can't believe it!
But but but.....i saved so much money at the same time.

I charmed the trainer and she really went to great lengths to give me an awesome deal and threw in tonnes of freebies!
She said her staff would have alot of paper work to do because of me!! Wahahaha.....thanks!
i guess she was most happy to do all that becos she was able to convert a Clarins user to Lab Series.
Apparently there's some kind of industry rivalry going on.
I calculated the retail price of the products and i would have paid $431 should i buy my loot on normal days.
But today, I got all the items at a steal......$244!!! Plus i also received a chieo looking 2GB thumbdrive, a $35 dining voucher and lots of travel size samples!
Wahahaha....hua suan ba!
*victory sign*

Here's my loot! From hair care, to shave care, facial care to even abs care!
Not bad rite ;-) These can last me for quite awhile.
Happy happy!

Okie, I'm going to go use my loot now! Lab rat signing off :-)

So yesterday after work I thought to myself, hey I have some time to burn before lunch. And since I am in the vicinity, why not drop by the Club 21 Bazzar Sale.
I have never been to the sale prior to this, and my initial thought was i probably be done looking around in 30 mins. Well....all i can say is....30 mins turned out to be 3 hours, and i totally forgotten about lunch!
Hahahahaha...... Everything there was soooooooooooooooo cheap and theres so many stuff to be bought.......my god every corner i turned, I saw something to grab, it was such an unbelievable experience. Truly UNBELIEVABLE. I was totally blown away...
I left the sale yesterday feeling very accomplished yet in a way still very unsatisfied....hahahaha
So today, i made my way to the sale again!! Wahahaha...i'm insatiable manz.......And it was extremely satisfying when I manage to find gems that I truly like.......its an undescribable feeling! And gems aplenty I sure found...wahahaha....
The past two days were really extreme cardio workout manz.....i ended up totally exhausted, albeit happily exhausted :-) I love Club 21!!!
