I had facial today in a new place. The place that Weilee do her facial. Derma K. That's the place. Lily did the facial for me. Indeed she's the only one there. The owner and the beautician all by herself. It took about 3 hours for the entire facial session. She is very particular on every pores on my face. She cant withstand the blackheads and whiteheads on my skin. She took her own sweet time to extract out the blackheads. It was painful but still manageable lar. Weilee told me that it's painful yesterday, so I actually have preparation for it.
I went to the beautician yesterday for consultation before my facial appointment today. I went there to find out more about chemical peels/microdermabrasion programme. I wanna get rid of all my dead skins and allow skin renewal. The entire process gonna take about 7-10 days where I have to stay at home on the 3rd-5th day when the skin starts to peel off. I find skin renewal is good as I have some acne scars and dead cells.
I'm planning to sign up for the skin renewal course on June I think. I wanted to do immediately like this week but I'm going for Life Camp next Friday. So I guess it's best to do after the Life Camp.
Many things I wanna do. Like for now, skin renewal. Then I'm gonna visit the dentist to get rid of my wisdom tooth. Both sides. Each tooth gonna costs about RM500, so two will be around RM1k. Expensive! Wisdom tooth, why lar you wanna grow out?! Cant you just stay in the gum?! And I wanna have braces AGAIN. I had braces once when I was in secondary school. But now my teeth is out of its beautiful position coz I did not wear the retainer enough long. The dentist told me that I only need to pay around RM1k to redo the braces. I want the transparent one!
Tua Pek Kong Temple
One of the historical place in Bukit Mertajam. I brought Jellita there to try the famous Lou Shu Fan. The difference is that it is made from rice. You can find this stall in most of the food guide food as it is very famous. The food stalls are located right beside the temple. According to my dad, the temple has been one of the longest temple in Penang. I dont know how true is that coz I seldom go to temples.
This is the chilly which makes the Lou Shu Fan delicious. It will only be good with the chilly, otherwise so-so only.
I usually go there for the Lou Shu Fan only. But they have other stalls as well, which are also famous. Like Hokkien Mee, Laksa, Economy Rice, Noodle Soup, Wan Tan Mee and others.
Too many good food in Penang! I'd be very happy if I knew all those famous places for good food and to try out. And most importantly to take tempting photos of the food and to blog about it..LOL!
I dont wanna blog more now. Too many mosquitoes attacking my legs! Dad's office is always mosquitoes' home! =/
Woke up early this morning and followed Dad to Penang for the auction. We reached there quite early and had breakfast in one of the 'antique' kopitiam at the old Penang street. Sorry I have no idea what's the street called but simply la..classify as one of the old street will do. Then I started to camwhore and even my Dad did the crazy action with me. He even told me where should I take the photos, especially the historical-like buildings and some very old shops.
He drove me to few streets there, parked by the road side and I started to take pictures of those buildings in colours, vivid colours, sephia or black and white. But I'd preferred the building photos to be in sephia as it looks more real. Too bad I dislike the cars parked there..coz this shows that the building is old, but you could see Kelisa or Proton there. This means the vehicles are modern = no more historical-like photos! My dad said I should get one antique mini cooper to park there and start taking the photos..LOL!
And this is one of the India street nearby. I love this street because it is so colourful. Everything sold there is pretty colourful and I decided to take the photos using the vivid colour mode. The photo turned out to be quite good.
An old temple
After the auction, I went to picked Jellita and her mum in the afternoon. Sent her mum to the airport and we went shopping at Queensbay Mall. I bought nothing but a sunglasses from MNG. No photos of myself with the new sunglasses, perhaps in a few days time I will show up one ; ) Next, laksa time for both of us. We tempt Juliaty on the delicious laksa and asked her to come down to Penang immediately by ferry.
Her reply was good, "I'll reach at the 2500 hour"..which can never exist! LOL
Pretty tired. Reached home and I took a nap before dinner. And just now I brought Jellita to Auto City and we hang out at Old Town. It was my first time having hot white milk tea in Old Town. You can hardly see me with hot drinks unless I have no choice!
This time my reason is that I HAVE FOOD POISONING! I dont know whats wrong with my stomach. I think it should have be the crabs that I took yesterday. I'm really sensitive to seafood which are not fresh. I experienced once in Subang where I took crabs and the next day I vomited and had bad diarrhoe. The situation got worst and I was admitted to the hospital. (According to Jellita, that's not hospital..it's a 5-star hospital because the price is much more expensive than staying in the hotel..Oh I was admitted to Sunway Medical Centre!)
That's me and Jellita. Right now she's sitting beside me reading every single word that I typed. I think she's gonna fall asleep soon. So I'd better stop here. We're going for breakfast tomorrow morning and I'll take more photos to tempt Juliaty k!
P/S: Juliaty, we're still waiting for your arrival at the Penang jetty! ; p Oh and Jellita said if you have read my blog, you'll definitely msg-ed her right after! LOL
Reached Penang around 4pm yesterday and rushed back home to attend for the monthly award presentation. I have few members who got promoted last month, including myself. So I have to be there. Otherwise I'm still in Jakarta now. Didnt even get enough of sleep coz we woke up around 5am to get to the Jakarta airport.
Jakarta has the worst traffic jam I've ever seen. You can get stuck in the traffic jam for hours, which I dont think so Malaysia will experience that except during festive seasons. We were afraid that we might be late if there's any traffic, it's unpredictable. In addition, it's in the morning..the time where people go to work.
Ok updates. Let me think what I did..
I did a lot of shopping in Bandung and Jakarta. I bought 2 Guess top, AX baby T, CK long sleeve top, DKNY blouse, high-waist skirt, Miss Sixty pants, and some other cheap bargain fake eyelashes and nighties. It's cheap. Much cheaper than in Malaysia. Instead I should open an online boutique to sell these things huh..hehhe!
Rupiah has depreciated again and it's is RM1 to Rp2900. So things are cheaper there. I bought a new camera. Canon IXUS 860 IS. It is slightly cheaper than the price in Malaysia but the warranty is in Indonesia. It's alright for me coz I'll be in Indonesia quite often, so if there's any problem I can still send there.
In the airport. Experimenting with my new camera. (That's my dad)!
Cool? The functions are not as much as my previous Sony T100 especially the editing tools. I dont have time to explore the other functions yet.
Yesterday we were waiting in LCCT for our next flight back to Penang and this is what I came across from TheStar.
That is so cruel! How can a dad raped his daughter and if you read further, the daughter even got pregnant! WTF! The daughter, named Elisabeth, who became the monster's daughter and wife at the same time?! What kinda dad is that. He even locked her up in a small room. Too cruel to become a human.
The boyfriend bought me this book titled "The Secret". He has read one, the Mandarin version and he explained whatever he read to me. But when I was in the airport, I told bout this book in the English version and he asked me to get it. It's RM70 and he bought for me. I seldom read. Which is not a good habit because my general knowledge are really limited compared to the boyfriend. So now he's encouraging me to read more..hahha!
I've read half of the book and I find it interesting. Especially the life theory and etc. I never like story books or fictions or non-fictions books. Except "The Shopaholic". Sometimes I do read motivation books or self-improvement books. In fact, I have quite a number of books on that. But you know what..I WILL NEVER FINISH READING THEM! Hahha it's always until the half only. Then I get bored and slowly forget bout the book. And the next time when I visit MPH, I'll try to get another new book..LOL!
Anyway I think I'll finish "The Secret" coz it's pretty interesting. In fact, I've read half of the book in the airport yesterday. I got myself an Iced Tea from Coffee Bean and start reading. We waited for almost 3 hours in the airport. ;)
I got bored waiting in the airport. Furthermore it's LCCT, where you have no place to shop and it's humid. Yesterday was extremely crowded. I dont know where those people are going. We reached LCCT around 11am and my next flight to Penang was 3pm. So I went to the sales counter to asked if I can join the earlier trip which is around 1pm but the salesperson said it was full.
I was surprised. Why so many people are going Penang? I even asked my dad if there's any events going on in Penang. Hmm no choice but to wait for 3 hours there. The queue was very long at the boarding gate. Everyone is rushing to get the front seats.
Whereas I'm different.
I rushed to get the middle seats which are near to the emergency exits. Coz it is more spacious! But becareful..sometimes the seats cant be lean backwards. It depends on which flight is that.
It is alright if the destination is near. But if it's far, I'll definitely get one express boarding ticket, and get the seats in the middle. On my way back to Penang, I took the 3Sixty magazine to read and came across this article..
Sales in Singapore!I'm planning to go next month after the boyfriend finished his finals. Time to shop again!
Hmm I'm talking more and more bout shopping these days. I have never ending story for shopping and also never ending new items..LOL! Did I just mentioned before that I'm gonna control my shopping?! I broke my promise and I always do. Hehhe
I have nothing to buy. Nothing needed. But endless wants. I got myself Chanel make up base. I bought the white base which has glittery look. This is the new colour for their make up base. The Azur.
My skin glows and looks brighter with this. I wanted to get it in the Jakarta airport but it was out of stock. It is cheaper in Jakarta. Around RM140 but in Penang, it's RM158.
Alrite that's all for now. I need to wake up early tomorrow. Dad is bringing me to go for land auction and who knows I'll get some tips from him. Then I can do more shopping..Hahha!
; )
