Wellness, Yoga and Detox...

I am easily influenced. full stop.

1 minute, I want to get my hands on scrapbooking... Later, I wanna learn nail art... Then, I want to learn baking and cake deco... And then, I wanna make soaps.... NOW.... I wanna join a detox programme... TT__TT

All like "hangat-hangat tahi ayam" / 3 minutes heat lor... SIGH...!!!

A KE junior (ex Qatar crew) just posted some detox programme she went in Phuket for 7 days, where you fast, only drink water and have supplements.. NO FOOD... for 7 days... and you also have to do colomas (stuck a tiny hose to the rectum and cleanse our bowel) and apparently it is really detoxifiying...

Beachfront loaction..

Balinese style bathroom... hmmm.. :)



Colema room...

I clicked on the website she gave and indeed, Im convienced I should go for one too!

You see, I always have constipations... My stomach is always bloated... and recently, many break out on chin area, which associated with our digesting system... most importantly, Im fat... Yea yea yea.. I know.. there are fatter people out there... yes our weight and size grew as we age.. we can always excersice more and be healtier and thinner... etc...

No, I want to detox like her... >(

I wanna, I wanna, I wanna...! Full Stop!

I was amazed that she went alone.. Very daring.. For me, I wish I can bring Hubby together.. since he is also fat (but he amazingly can go toilet 2-3 times aday!) or a friend... and I wont be alone there with strangers.. (I am kinda a social hermit... cannot make much conversation also.. *roll eyes*)

Fact: Do you know that when we go poo-poo, it is not the food we ate yesterday or today? It is food we probably ate 10 meals ago??!!

Some fact written in the website... and you know when you do colomas, food as long as 9 months ago can come out! (they said the guest dint have grapes since 9 months ago and they found grape seed in the poo...) O.O!!

Apart from the detox, there is yoga, and even a daily massage!




yoga at the beach.. how nice!!

Now, I should practice my yoga more, so when I go detox it helps more! =D 

The only thing is that you I have to quit coffee, food, sweets, carbs... even after the 7 days for a better effect.. can I do it?

Is this another 3 minutes heat? I don't know... =/

Sadly, this kind of detox doesn't come cheap.. the minimum treatment is 3 days and its already RM2300. And my ex colleague took the Ultimate programme, 7 days... and it was RM6100! exclude room rates and air ticket.. T_T but they were many testimonials and even media saying how different a person feels after the detox..

So while I try convince Henry or a girlfriend to go with me, I gonna put up a new "want to do" in my list.. the Detox programme.. ;) 

Update: Henry actually agrees to me.. and we are gonna look for some alternative or just save some moolah and go! hehehe!!

And save up 10k for it.. (also gonna check other places that offers similar...)

Shopping.. and more shopping!!



Scallop Circle 2", Large Corner Puncher and Mcgill Starbust Punch
Glossy Accent mini...

 Above: Stuff I cant wait for 1 mth (US spree) and just freshly PAID in my short SnC trip just a moment ago... T_T

So mini... 18ml.. yet RM9.90... T_T

Exchanged this small corner puncher.. Luckily Val (SnC owner) is nice enough to exchange it for me.. cos my previous 1 couldn't punch a proper corner... =/

Money value is so low nowadays that a few item ady cost me RM200... T________T

I had another shopping trip last Thursday with Candice... and I spent like another RM300 on art stuff!! O.O!!

RM300 here!!!! TT____TT



Heat tool RM118... and free inkpad from versamark.. got white, black, champange and another color.. I took champange..

 SnC sold theirs out.. but their prices seems similar.. I wanted to get it from US spree but USA have different plug and voltage.. so... =/

I TRIED using hair dryer, to me, hair dryer is hot enough to burn me! But not hot enough to even melt the embossing powders.. T_T So have to invest in 1 lor... =( I wanted other colors.. but they only have blue now.. =( Y no pink or purple leh!!

And according to my research, heat tools air wont blow the loose powders away.. dunno how they function la.. some how the air blows straight.. -__-"

eyelet and eyelet tool from Craft Haven 1U..

 I thought I'll give this a try.. =P




Butterfly punch RM20 and scallop heart 2.5" RM89

 I can make flowers ady~ hehehe... ^^

Ok, I know I bought them tad higher than the US spree.. but I cant wait lah~ I think the butterfly punch wasn't expensive, cos MS ady cost me RM32 (if Gyna take it back for me.. US spree.. maybe higher...) I havent try it yet.. hope all punches nicely.. =/

Crackle Glaze and Texture paint.

I thought I should get Ranger's Crackle accent, but they dont have it in 1U, so the guy intorduced me a similar... (then I found SnC sells smaller 1, but cheaper.. oh well, 1U rental expensive, I geddit.. =/) The texture paint was "influenced" by Candice, after she saw a heart box there with the texture paint.. and I thought I should get this instead of gesso paint... ^^

Heart chipboard... RM1.5 per pcs... 

Another embelishment for scrapbook.. Im gonna antique it, or texture it.. hehehe.. shooot! forgot to buy copper alcohol ink!! T_T

Ok.. enough stuff bout scrapbook... Im pretty much content with what I have now.. hehehe.. need to scrap something ady!!!

Anywho... I also bought me a new platform heels... hehehe..... =P



matches my outfit doesn't it? =D



Yes... I wear my floral leggings ady... But it has become a 3/4 leggings to me T_T... Why? Cos I'm too tall lor... T_T.. if I leave it at ankle, the upper part seems hanging and tight.. So I pulled it up and made it a 3/4.. T_T pity me... TT____TT

Its from Forever21 @ RM119.. I dont feel it's expensive anymore cos ugly shoes in Vincci and Nose already have similar pricing..

I know! This shoe made me 5 inches taller than I already am.. but when I tried on this shoe, I straight away feel my legs turned sexy! =D

Ok Im gonna wear it only for clubbing, or outings without much walking.. haha =P

Its like so long I dint buy SHOES!! And my shopping purpose was to buy some formal shoe for office work attire! errr.. Im gonna ask HUBBY to pay for my work shoe.. hehe.. spotted 1 in C&K.. not that expensive.. hope still have my size when I go back to buy.. =/

Also bought more containers from Daiso to "organise" my stash... most ady put away... so no pics... but I spent like another RM85 there TT___TT So fast like grab a few things and its ady RM85... T_T

Told ya money value is so low nowadays... hmmm... =(



A divider thing I bought to organise my accessories.. see its all better! ehehe..



I am having a strong urge to buy some ingredients and make these below!! O.O!!



Soap-popcicles!  

Only uses melt n pour soap (glycerin) and add colors and frangrance! Now I need my popsicle mold in Seremban T_T and get some ice-cream sticks (can I go Ikea n grab those free coffee stirer sticks?? =P)

CUPCAKE BATH BOMBS!!! O.O!!

I WANT  I WANT  I WANT  I WANT !!

wait.. I dont have bath tubs here T_T but still I can make it as gifts.. Gyna and Christine wedding is coming.. maybe I can convince them to hire me and make them hen's night gifts! hehehehe...

I'm Freakin' Broke.. can declare bankrupt yet? =(

Shopping hauls~

Went to TimesSquare with Mei-Mei on Monday and gosh! I bought a lot! :D Ok, so its no brand clothings.. but with me currently jobless, and branded clothes are such a pain to purchase nowadays (even if im working and earning a lot, its still a pain for a knee length skirt RM200++ in Topshop), I have came up with solutions to dress fashionably.. =P

6 tops and 1 belt... ^^

The total above is less than RM180....!!!! They are mostly RM10(the white top), RM25 and max RM39.9(the maxi)! hehehe.. can you imagine how much was my MNG maxi I wore in Bali? RM399! Ok, so the materials were waaaay different and they have branding to charge for.. still RM39.9 is really a steal.. even cheaper than those blogshops that doesnt need to pay for rental and we have to pay for poslaju! Its like I paid my parking RM4.5 and get 7 items! hahaha!

Yea.. sometimes Im cheapo like that.. but as long as it looks good on me, I dont care much bout branding anymore.. mix n match! ^^

bought this online for RM20..

I kinda dislike floral leggings in the begining.. but when I saw padini models wearing similar floral leggings in black and looking not bad, I thought I'll gave it a try.. and I wanted to get a black 1 from this blogshop (they were doing sales, RM20 per pair) and added postage RM4.5, it will be RM 24.5.. and they couldnt gave me any further discounts or free postage ady since their price were already sales price.. (originally RM32!!)

But after I confirmed my order and they found out they were out of stock for black, and offered me the white 1 with free postage, I was like why not? White isnt that bad also... =P

from Art Friend Gardens..

While waiting for Meimei to arrive Midvalley (too riddiculus for me from Kajang to fetch her in Subang, go KL, and back Subang and only back Kajang, so I asked her to take train from Subang to MV and we go KL) and I was very early (afraid I caught in jam, so I came out early, but reach MV in 15mins.. -__-") I parked my car and went to ArtFriend.. got a multi level box for my nail art mold and arcylics powders, and my arcylics paint in pastel (for glimmer mist).. Wanted to run some errand too but... Never expected Meimei will take a CAB to MV! and spent her RM30.. -___-""

Anyway, we walked the whole day! (other than shopping.. did something I cant reveal yet) My legs were SORE!!! Ok I blame the thin Cotton-On shoe base! I should have worn a sports shoe instead! lol!

Speaking of sport shoe, I need to get a cobbler to fix my nike.. worn it to chingming last saturday and cos its full of mud, I washed it and the base came off wtf.. T_T

Yea yea, I hardly wear it (once a year for cabin recurrent training, a few joggings... that's it) cos its kinda bulky for casual outtings (my big feet and its thick design) and I have other shoes nicer for casual wears... and my Nike already like 5-6 years old I think.. or maybe older... =P




Clear stamps... USA online puchase... ^^

 They arrived!!! =D Though I'm not that excited anymore.. cos I'm waiting for my Martha Stewart's punchers now! hehehe.. I need to scrapbook ady! No more excuses that I dont have this I dont have that.. =P yea I dont have my border punchers yet.. hehehe..

So crazy with border punchers now! And there was this sales going on in this Joann.com and I bought a few to sastify my punching urges.. Hope to get more, but the sales was over and prices were back to normal, so now I'm hunting for more punchers sales and aiming when Gyna going to LA or Washington and help me to collect.. hehehe..

You know such punchers in KL were selling sooooo expensive, even after I gave a middle person some profit and included my postage cost, it is still cheaper than here.. even in SnC where they no need to pay for shop rentals! >(

But of course, I have to wait like a month or so... hmmm.. its ok.. I can wait... =/

hmm.. I wanna go 1U to shop tomorrow... hehe..

Homemade Glimmer mist, and Daddy's Birthday Card..

Ok, since I was quite blur how last week went pass, I pretty much make myself remember what I did this week... Tho not much.. but yea I tried..

Went back to my hometown with Hubby on last Sunday, stayed a night, had a facial appointment and then back to kl.. Stayed home pretty much the whole week, cos I'm broke T_T

Tuesday was Hubby day... ^^

My  laptop was spammed with Malware on Wednesday, I suspect it came either from the facebook spam link I accidentally clicked, or a newly downloaded song album I open to listen... or from SnC website.. hmm anyway, tried many ways to remove the malware, but failed. Late, have to sleep. Damn and I blame a part of me cant sleep on Wednesday night cos I was worried to what extend can the malware may damage my laptop, since I dint back up any files and pictures for some time.. T_T

So, on Thursday, try to back up my files, try more softwares and anti-malwares to remove the bloody spam, (failed again. cos I'm not IT savvy) in the end, reformatted my laptop.. T_T

Now my lappie is EMPTY, no songs, no pics, no vids, cos I need to scan my external hdd before putting them back in. And I hate to reformat, cos my Vista is SP1, and its so outdated, Microsoft keep lagging my internet line to update the OS... >(

I have no MSN, no Adobe Flash Player, outdated IE, no Mozilla, no Vuze, no photoshop..... etc... T_T
And I don't get it why I cant seems to update my IE to 9... >( stupid SP1!

So, while waiting for the anti-malware, anti virus, reformatting time, I managed to squeeze in some "crafty" sessions.. like:

a STAR! layout for some Cleo giveaway.. haha

So.... kiddo.. haha... but it was OPI Texas collection.. colorful mar... =P

Erm, Im not sure this trick works, but then again I never won anything I wanted from Cleo yet, except a bottle of Loreal moisturizer 5-6 years back, and a Vichy cleanser (which I sold it in SS cos I don't need it, yes I profited RM30 from that.. lalala~) that time postage was just 30cents, I sent every entry in that mag... =P

I remember some long lost friend once told me to decorate the entry for a higher chance to win, and she told me she had won a lot of times... but I in the other hand had won none. Maybe I send it in too late? Like middle of the month or end of month, I should try early of the month.. haha.. Shall I send them by the last date of the month (30th or 31st) and so Cleo gets it by 1st? lol..

Im choosing which to enter nowadays if I buy the mag, cos its like 60cent ady... T_T...

Daddy's birthday card... handmade.. =D

I'm out of 1 'D' so I replaced it with DADEE... =P I'm making a pop up card for Dadeeeeeee... =D



butterflies from my punches collection.. =D

  Smaller ones from Daiso and a shop in Sunway Pyramid, large one from Martha Stewart. I stuck in some blings and stickled it..




handmade flower ^^

 Just a round I cut and decorated.. =D

You see, I dont own any die cut machine yet, and I hate to see all the tutorial online teaching us to make own flowers using die cut machine etc.. cos I don't have one!! =(  (I'm dreaming to get my hands on slice elite... or cricut) so what do people do when die cuts machine were not invented for personal use than?

MEASURE. AND HAND CUT.

Yes, I traced circles from round covers, cds etc to get my round and cut them one by one.. =) I'm planning to make some different templates of circles for my future use... soon..




mini butterflies were stickled too, and the scalloped stripe were from a template I made myself and punched with tiny heart punch.. from Daiso Taiwan.. =P




My scallop strip template.. haha..

 I punched a row of half circle onto a piece of paper with my 1" circle punch, and retrace it to the mounting board and cut it out again! =D

Its a old mounting board from my college days presentation, I recently took a few out from the store room, removed the written papers (which were pasted with mounting sprays) and reuse them.. Apart from making templates, I'm gonna cut some and make dividers for my accessories drawer. Especially for my earrings and rings compartments.. too messy =/



pop-up birthday cake template

I copied the template idea from this video tutorial that uses some die cut machine, but I just self measure and cut them out myself lor..

Then, add in strips of deco tape to the sides...

 Tape very cheap nia... from Daiso Korea.. hahaha! Daiso again!!

end result.. pretty sucessful..

Apart from the card being a bit too plain for my liking.. but Im in a hurry to send it today so Daddy gets it by Monday (his bday!)

ariel view

I added I'm more speech bubbles in the end, but I dint have time to take pictures ady..

And just freshly made:

Homemade glimmer mist!!! =D =D

Yay! Success!! =D =D

A bottle of glimmer mist in SnC cost me a bomb, and after some tutorials from you tube, I bought perfect pearls powders from ebay, (cant get them in SnC) and some acrylic paints from Daiso and ArtFriend, and some spray bottles from Sinma, (RM2 per bottle?) mix em up, and tadaaa!! =D

Can use to color some homemade flowers, paper background... etc... =D

Glimmer mist in Snc is RM29.90 for 1.35ounce... 

my bottle = RM2
perfect pearl powder = RM10 and can be used for long long time, many purposes.. (I just added in like a few scoops from my crochet hook lor.. haha)
acrylic paint from daiso RM5 for 20ml, can be used many times and many purposes... (2 squeezes)

break it down, a bottle of glimmer mist cost like only RM5 lor! and I can have as many or as little glitter as I want, cos I can mix them myself... *pat self at back*

hahahaha!




seeeeee! It glimmers!!! =D

 Gold, bronze, midnight blue, yellow green and black.. Though black looks more to grey cos I added perfect pearl (white) in it.. =P I'm getting some pink and purples on my next shopping trip! hahaha!

A week passes so quickly...

Even that I'm doing nothing @ home... :(

It's like "what I did last Monday?" I don't remember! What bout Tuesday? What have I done so far other than Yoga at night?? I don't know! I know I went out on Wednesday... and that's one day gone~




Candice and I bought each of these from Popular Bookstore. Its like 70% (RM2.4) for a box of 3.
Though I need to stir up the glitters when I need to use it.
And Im praying this will work
Wondering what is the difference between this and those expensive "Ice stickles"
And Im guessing its not acid free

 I made a list of thing I wanna do, but yet nothing I felt is done ON TIME!

I haven't crochet a beret cap till now.. not any caps at all... *fail 1*

I started this on a Friday night, and finished it of on Saturday morning..
What can you see? What you think it looks like?
I don't have black yarn so I sub with blue.
I don't have mushroom eyes so I knotted up the thread and made eyes.. :(
The bee's mouth are slanted, making it looks like a wicked bee.
YES ITS A BEE
what else?

this is how the bee supposed to be..

*fail 2*

FUCK.

I feel like I am a Total Fail Person TT__TT

fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck 

 Sorry I cant help it but to express it... =*(

a tineeee "rose flower"
ok lah, can make a few more and stick on scrap layout...

And Im so freakin broke right now.. and I still wanna buy summore! TT____TT

Just spent like RM500 on work wear shopping on Saturday! 4 tops, 1 set of black suit. Luckily its kinda sale..50%.. hmmm.. at least I don't need to buy work wear like for this year.. I HOPE!!! Yeah, Hubby is paying.. but I paid with my CC first leh TT__TT

I feel useless.. =*(

And can you believe it? I'm waiting for company bonus so I can buy summore Martha Stewart Punches.. *fail 3*

My snow globe is not done yet T_T *fail 4*

I varnished them with epoxy glue on Friday (One whole day!)
Now, its on testing period, soaking it in water and see if the water seeps thru or not

I wrapped a laminate to this pic and seal the back with epoxy glue too..

Its a mess... I know
But this morning I found that I dint seal it properly,
The corners of the pics any seeped.. =( *fail 5*

That's it this week, that's what made me so disappointed with myself =( I have done nothing!!

Well, on the "bright side", at least I made myself sit and finish March magazines, wrapped up some craft books I bought... sigh..
