Postpartum weight loss = 13 kg

Greatest achievement in 2017, I shed 13 kg in total (from birth of Elana), around 6 kg from my pre-pregnancy weight, which means I seriously have lost weight. Hehe. To make it more interesting, my goal is to go back to my pre-wedding self, which means another 4 kg to lose!

P.s. Im not starving, I eat rice like usual. I only go for healthier options and organics produces, wherever I can. 

Why mini? Because having more than a week-long leave is almost an impossible thing to be done -for both of us

P.s. We were thinking of for a start, explore Europe in this order : Paris - Venice - Rome - Florence - Paris. Shall be in November 2018

Already had rough plan/itinerary, but my only focus now is to save, save, save! It has been doing well, I guess, since I actually havent use up all my KWSP money hehehe.

P.s. Travel wishlist stated in this post : Travel Wishlist

1. Pulau Langkawi, Kedah, Malaysia : DONE ✔

2. Malacca (Historical city), Malaysia : PENDING

3. Pulau Redang, Terengganu, Malaysia : PENDING

4. Taman Negara, Pahang : DELETE FROM LIST

5. Pulau Pinang / Penang, Malaysia : DONE ✔

Will made separate post(s) for the travel part so stay tuned! Taman Negara is deleted because in 2014, major flood happened causing Taman Negara to close for about a month. Warning has been released in January 2017, so I think this travel plan to Taman Negara in 2017 could wait/be postponed to another year.

More life update(s), 6 months from now!

The half-filled drawer now full! 1 Muji drawer can hold 14 pcs of ColourPop liquid lipsticks 

(2-4pcs at the back!)

When the package arrived. Im a happy lady!

My Collection

My Collection now are:

1. 8 x Ultra Matte Lip

2. 4 x Ultra Satin Lip

3. 2 x Ultra Blotted Lip

4. 1 x Ultra Glossy Lip

So lets straightaway proceed to the swatches. They are all done in natural light (I just sit by my room balcony, no extra lighting whatsoever) so yeah, I think this is the best one to show!

ULTRA MATTE LIP COLLECTION

Less staying power so I think I'd wear this less. You'd feel more comfortable on lips when applied, but I'd prefer long wearing ones. But in this collection I love Echo Park and it was my first purchase

ULTRA BLOTTED LIP

Hands down, this is the best formula ever! It really sheer and really waterproof/transferproof/smudgeproof, you can REALLY FAKE natural bitten/flushed/coloured lips with these lippies! Look how you can still see my skin but in better pigment (for lips)

I have been wearing UBL Zuma all the time! *chuckles*

Tag : ColourPop Ultra Blotted Lip Review, Malaysia/Asian Medium Skin Tone

After 2 times going into SEPHORA MY store, I finally made my purchase and I got all except the YSL EDP (last minute decision, still obsessing towards ELIE SAAB) hehe

P.s. also Im stocking up cotton rounds/pads, my all-time favourite Sephora Microsmooth Powder Foundation, etc.

Best Birthday Ever!


March is a bittersweet month of the year. 

I got married in the end 2013, conceived straightaway and lose it in March 2014.

Pregnant again in 2015, gave birth to Elana on 5th March 2016, losing her later that month.

I have been on confinement on my birthday;

TWO TIMES.

So to compensate all the losses and bitter moments we had, we decided to celebrate my birthday months being at my favourite place on earth.

Husband knows I have been eyeing on Four Seasons Hotel Sydney since 2015 (the first time we planned for Sydney trip, but knowing we would be spending time outdoors, we choose cheaper stay : Travelodge Phillip St, the first time we went to Sydney)

Four Seasons Sydney, as well as some other hotels in Circular Quay, offer the harbour view : Sydney Opera House view, Harbour Bridge view or simply both.

P.s. But as far as Im concerned, Four Seasons Sydney have the best view at the best rate 💗 so this is our review on the recent stay in Four Seasons Sydney.

Our stay is the Full Harbour Deluxe King, and is on high floor (pre-request). Being one of the best hotels, of course they paid attention to detail(s), I have no complaints



Full harbour view : in the evening


And the staffs rang our bell to send this birthday cake & card from the Hotel and it was very nice of a surprise..




Thank you, Four Seasons Sydney for making our Melbourne/Sydney trip the most memorable one. The warm welcome and top notch services is definitely contagious : I'LL BE BACK FOR MORE.

The phrase went, "They'll tell two friends... and they'll tell two friends... and so on, and so on..." - See more at: http://www.whistlerquestion.com/opinion/columnists/good-service-is-contagious-1.1277046#sthash.sBNgR0hx.dpuf

If you're new to Four Seasons Sydney, Id say not to worry about transport. Other than taxi/private car/limousine, it is so frigging close to the Circular Quay train station, you'd never have the chance to sweat -walking from train station (Circular Quay station) to the Hotel.

FS Sydney Location : Superb!

Although I wont be planning of going to Sydney anytime soon, Im sure I'll be back once every few year, just to enjoy the magnificent view ♡

Thank you!

P.s. /me replying all birthday wishes while we waited for our plane

In-cabin view

We got on the plane on time. I was a bit nervous, recalling one of my friends have trouble with her flight (not Jetstar) in Melbourne Airport (for MEL-SYD flight), where her flight got cancelled, 2 times! *sweat*

But lucky us, everything went smooth and well.
