I’m back

Published by

Greetings, lovely people! I hope you have had a wonderful weekend! My apologies! I know I haven’t updated my blog for over three weeks. I really missed my blog and you guys. I came back from the trip two weeks ago. There were so much to catch up at work. I was really snowed under with work. Plus, I had really bad jet lag. For the first week, I didn’t get much sleep at all. At some stage, I was so stressed out. Anyway, it’s all getting better now. No complaints! 🙂 I will start uploading photos and posts about the trip. It was one of the best trips I ever had. Please stay tuned. 🙂 For the beauty lovers, I didn’t buy a lot of beauty stuff on this trip. But I did get some Kiko products (Italian brand) and some Biotherm products (French brand). I will gradually post some reviews about these products. Just a sneak peek here. 😉 I want to take the opportunity to thank my followers. Thanks for staying with me. …

Blue Sky Tag

Published by

Hey lovely people, I hope you are having a great weekend. I’m travelling in Italy at the moment. It’s a beautiful day, blue sky, no wind, a sunny autumn day. Quite a perfect time to do the blue sky tag. Big thank you to dear Rebecca from Rebecca Goes Rendezvous. This is a really fun tag.If you have followed me for a while, you probably have seen Rebecca’s name in my post many times. I have been a long time follower of her blog. She is teaching in France. Her blog is all about travel adventures, poetry and her life in France. It’s full of inspiration. Alrighty, let’s get on with the tag. Rules: • Thank the person who nominated you, and link back to their blog • Answer their questions • Tag 11 other bloggers (or as few/ many as you fancy) • Write 11 questions for them • Let them know you’ve nominated them Questions: 1.

It’s not OK!

Published by

Hey guys, I hope you have had a good week! I scheduled a post for today, but I decided to put something else here. I just want to get it off my chest. I will keep it short. The story started on Monday. Same as you, I have followed many bloggers. I get email notifications when they update their blogs. On Monday, I got a notification email. I didn’t have time to read the post through the day. At night, after I read her post, I started looking at blogs on WordPress. I came across a beauty blog. The blogger had exact same post, same title, same photo and same words of the post I just read. At the beginning, I thought it was just reblogging. However, I couldn’t find the original blogger’s name anywhere in the post. It didn’t mention about the source either. Really?! I’m still quite new to the blogging world. However, I do know bloggers put effort and time to publish each post. If you want to reblog, I am sure most of …

The Carpool Tag!

Published by

I was tagged by Rebecca from The Finicky Cynic for the carpool tag last month. Sorry for the delay. I just got around to do it. Do you know? Rebecca actually created The carpool Tag. I must admit that I haven’t done many tags since I started blogging. I did enjoyed the ones I have done. However, nothing is like this tag. I think it’s pretty unique. She wrote: “I was inspired to create this sort of tag due to the fact that I’ve done my fair share of carpooling at home and abroad, whether with family and friends or with complete strangers (safely, of course!). I find carpooling not only to be an economic way of getting from place to place, but also a great way to bond with other passengers! Friendship makes the world go ’round, am I right?” Without further ado, let’s just get to it.   The rules: Thank the person who tagged you in their post. Link back to the original creator of the tag (that’s me!). Pick your car (model, size, color, …
