festive mood..

in another 4 more days will be the long awaited X'mas.. Can already feel the vibe of the festive already..

2 day weekend...

used to the long weekend which i have had in 2 consecutive week, therefore the weekend which had jus passed by seems really short.. :( why cant we have 4 day work week only!!!

I came home right after work, went to get my car so that i could drive down to town later in the night to fetch him & go out after work.. I went to Bukit Timah Market, the one i used to go to buy their famous Satay Bee Hoon..

Was really tired & took a nap b4 going to meet him ard 11.. driving along CTE at that period of time toward town is really cool.. the traffic was really smooth unlike the one at the opposite direction..

We went to Cineleisure to get ticket for 风云II.. I am not a fan of the show but he is... We bought ticket for the 150am show & decide to go check out the Thai club at Orchard plaza call Neverland.. Rem the famous Sparks that was damn hot during our Sec sch time? Well, Neverland is located there now.. We just went there to take a look & walk back to Paranakan Place TCC to have coffee.. We tot the 2 hours awaiting for the show to start will crawl by slowly but we were wrong.. b4 we knew it, it was time for the show le...

Btw, the lighting this x'mas was really nice.. for those who haven go there to take a look, i strongly recommend u guys to go there for a walk ard wee hours.. no need to squeeze with the crowd and can enjoy the peaceful night with your loved ones.. :)

By the time we finished the show its already 4am in the morning.. Damn shagged out, that explain why we only woke up at 6pm the next morning.. yeah, wasted my saturday, my precious saturday slping...

We went to have the Thai steamboat.. Sumptuous dinner.. hehe.. Dear sent me back home after we went to Bugis to get my favourite dessert.. I doze off while watching Guess x3 ard 12 plus.. I am really like a pig!!

Dear came to find me in the noon the next day & we went to AMK for lunch.. Went to the Jap restaurant there.. After that, we make our way to Orchard cause i wanna go to 313 Somerset to check it out.. Wow, the place was really crowded.. We had a hard time finding a parking lot.. Think most of the S'porean was at Orchard for the new shopping experience and also the x'mas lighting this weekend...

We went to Orchard Central & check out their rooftop garden.. the view is superb but for those that had some phobia towards height, pls be prepared cause it looked damn scary when you look down from their rooftop garden....

We went to Beach Road to have the Yu Tou Lu & the heavenly Cereal Crayfish...

Though this weekend seems really short, it was an enjoyable one.. :)

Fake Mask??

Did my first online shopping for mask about a mth back.. Its the damn hot 我的美丽日记 mask from taiwan.. I got some when i went for my grad trip last yr and think the mask is really cheap and good..

Still had some left over from the trip and its depleting soon, that is why i am willing to try shopping for it online since i wont be able to travel there anytime soon... I came across this blogshop which i found on a online skincare forum and was just in time to take part in the so-called spree..

I placed my orders and transferred my money to the owner.. 1st issue is I did not get any reply from her for ages after the transferred was made with regards to the acknowledgement of the receipt.. 2nd thing that occur is, i found out that there are quite a no. of fake masks out there and there are claims saying that the blogshop which i get my masks from is selling the fake ones.. The owner came out to make clarification and even posted the picture of the mask that she carrying to assure her 'clients'.. So i thought it should be alright and did not go and think too much about it..

Finally she replied my email about a week later after i emailed her asking about the payment.. By then it was about 3 wks from when i made my transfer already.. She told me she did not receive any money from me which is quite impossible cause i had the transaction history in my bank account stating the transfer is through.. So I had to crop out that particular transaction and email to her as a proof of payment..

Then came the issue of her saying that she just found out from the supplier that the masks she brought in came from HK instead of Taiwan but they still came from the same distributor.. By then I am abit sianz already.. I did not cancel my order with her totally even though she say she can give me a refund.. Cause i was thinking she already bought the masks already, if i cancelled my orders jus like that she would be holding quite a no. of the masks.. On top of that, I was also hoping that there wont be a stark difference in the mask......

Today i got the masks and make a comparison with the one that i bought from taiwan... Well, upon comparison u can see a stark difference.. It totally match the description of the fake ones that was posted online.. Uneven edges, non-reflective wording on the side etc.... U can see the difference easily when placed beside the one which i bought earlier...

So i told her to refund me the remaining money to my account.. She quoted me a sum that is different from the earlier one.. Difference is not huge and its also not a matter of principle why i mind about the few cents.. Its more of, the unhappiness which i got from the mask which i highly think is fake ( based on the comparison made and the descriptions of the fake mask since i had never seen the mask from HK b4) and the irresponsible behaviour of hers after i make the payment..


Well, think i better be a cave-woman and guai guai stick to the traditional shopping ba..
