Art Walk at Jurong Point + FREE Postcards!

Remember I mentioned about Jurong Point is like a food mall?
They have started dipping into ARTs too! :)

Not too long ago they had this short film box-theater thingy and now they have Art Walk!

This place links the bus interchange to the basement level of Jurong Point.. and I believe this is just a part of the Art Walk. :)

 

Down the escalator from the bus interchange..

 

You'll see an arrow pointing to the Art Walk. :)

I think it looks kinda cool.. It used to be just plain scary walls (it's a quiet walkway) and now it's filled with colours so bright that it makes your day better. :)

 

Colours That Promote Happiness. :)

If I didn't see people painting these with my own eyes I would have thought they just pasted decals over the wall. :P

Pretty wall. :)

Like I said it's a quiet little alley and I don't really dare to walk any further. :P

Even if you don't like the art, there's always FREE postcards! :D

Collected a whole bunch of postcards when I was young.. Wonder where did I put them... :P

Bellabox - September 2012

See all other month's Bellabox reviews here.

After last month's rant post, it's easy not to have much expectation for this box..

This month box is not that bad, but still not good enough to make me want to continue the subscription.

In this month's Box.

$10 superberry.me Voucher
 

Storyderm Silk Mask (1 Sheet)

This Collagen Silk Mask from Korea is for firming, moisturising and brightening. Seems like something I could use. Will try it out soon..
 

JF Skin Solutions Acne Relief Cleanser Bar (20g) For oily Skin

So thankful they finally give me something for oily skin, well I guess my combination skin can still give it a try, at least they didn't give me any product for dry skin this time! This product is suitable for both face and body.

L'Oréal Professionnel Absolut Repair Cellular shampoo 100ml
Though my hair's not very damaged, I believe I can still try this product. Smells nice, hopes it doesn't cause any issue to my sensitive scalp..

L'Oréal Professionnel Mythic Oil (Nourishing Oil) 3ml For all hair types
This one smells good. Since it'll be used from mid to hair ends, I definitely can use this product without the fear of irritation to my sensitive scalp..

Savoir Faire Mini Lipstick 1.2g (407 Grace)

Makeup item! Me loves! The first product I tried immediately after opening the box. Though the shade is definitely not for me, I really like the sweet taste.. :)

Pink Mustache Necklace.

I didn't understand why there's a pink mustache necklace in a beauty box. After reading some reviews online it seems that this pink mustache is in support of Movember .  In case you're as clueless as me, Movember is a mustache growing charity event held annually, in the month of November, to raise funds and awareness for Men's health. Still doesn't have any link to beauty box, but oh well, since it's free.. I'm going to give it away to one of my customers. :P

Guess what is missing.

From 2 different restaurants at Jurong Point.

Picture 1 : No Straw.
Picture 2 : No Fork and the other pasta came plain without it's main ingredient (mushrooms)!

Without a straw I can still drink from the glass, but I seriously have to idea how to eat spaghetti without fork or chopsticks. I don't think I can eat steak with just spoon and knife either.

It's crappy to serve plain pasta when what we ordered from the menu is obviously not plain pasta. -.-''

It's silly and it makes me laugh but if it happens often, I don't think it'll be a laughing matter. Both times we were having our meals at non peak hours, both restaurants were not understaffed when these errors happen. Makes you wonder what the staffs are thinking about when they are working..

To clarify it's not stated that these staffs are new or trainee staffs either.

I'm not asking for very high level of service standard but missing important utensils or even serving when the dish is not complete kinda makes it very sloppy work. It's really unprofessional even for hawker standard, least to say coming from restaurants in malls.

Do you greet your spouse during bedtime and when you wake up?

Just some random thoughts the other day..

When your spouse is married to his/her job, you have to share him/her with his/her job.

If he/she is very close with his/her family, you have to share him/her with his/her family.

If he/she has many friends, you have to share him/her with his/her friends.

When you have kids, you have to share him/her with your kids.

The only time you have with him/her and it's not about kids, work, family, friends, meals, money, is probably good mornings and good nights. So remember to greet your partner with a smile in the morning and a good night kiss at night. :)

2012 Holiday Collection for Cosmetics

November-December is the Holidays seasons!

Typically around this period (September-October) there will be new collections and it's always such a joy to see all these pretty make up. *drools*

Though most of the time they are all too Party-ready with all the glitters and stuffs.
Not that it's a bad thing, but I look kinda old with red lipstick and glitter you know... Like erm.. Xmas tree with lights! :P

No one said with an empty wallet and bank account, one cannot drool at those pretty stuffs right? heh. So here's my 2cents worth from a make up dummy's point of view. Don't take it too seriously lah. I'm just a 没钱的宅主妇 (broke housewife).


Anyway this holiday I quite like M.A.C 's Holiday Collection: Glamour Daze
Tone seems more earthly with bits of shimmer. Blush, lipglass, eye pencil and nail polish seems very wearable to me. :D

Goggled and found 2 wonderful sites with swatches! It's makeupbytiffanyd (US) and Yuki'sLazyChannel (Taiwan). From M.A.C's website there's other holiday collections and one of it is a really pretty brush kit that makes me whimper in agony cause I'm just too broke to get them. :'(

Dior's Grand Bal is a little too grand in my opinion. Like the only option is a gown or long dress and nothing less would fit this set.

Chanel's Eclats du Soir de Chanel has this all grown up look. The dark nail polish and dark red lipstick will totally make me look like I'm still stuck in Halloween or something.

YSL's Northern Lights is pretty alright I guess, I could still use the Blush, Highlight Power and Top Coat.. but eyeshadow.. Hmm.. maybe the bright blue's a little not too suitable for my small eyes.

Lancome's Happy Holidays is all gold and red. Anymore red, it'll make me feel so CNY-ish. :P


By the way, anyone seen this year's deco at Orchard? It's so CNY-ish!!

 

FRANKENWEENIE

 Saw the above trailer sometime back when I was at the theaters for TED I think.

If your internet is so crappy that you can't spend 2 mins watching the trailer, here's a short Synopsis on Disney's new movie, Frankenweenie. It's about a boy who loved his dog so much that when it died, he used science to bring it back to life. Naturally this unnatural phenomenon will cause some issues and what will they be? Watch the movie to find out! :)

It's just another heartwarming movie you might say, but what interest me is that this movie is filmed in black and white, using stop-motion animated technique and then rendered in 3D.
Eh. I don't really know how to explain stop-motion. It's like making an object, look like it's moving on it's own?


Anyway back to the story, so what lengths will you go to keep your favourite pet by your side forever? Nothing. Call me heartless, but unless I'm guaranteed it's happiness I don't think I would do anything just to bring it back to life.


I don't have a pet right now, always feel like I'm not responsible enough to keep any. Can't even take good care of myself so I don't think I want the pet to suffer with me. Having a pet is a commitment, if you can't spend time with them and take care of their well being of all aspects (physical, emotional) please don't keep one!

When I was in primary school, my family had 2 chickens which we kept in the kitchen, inside a cage. Kept them since they were little yellow chicks. When we moved house, they were released into the little forest area behind the old flat.

Then when I was in secondary school, I saved up to buy a hamster. One day I brought it to school and my classmate told me it's sick, she offer to take it home to help me take care of it. Then I don't know if it was dead or lost somehow. Kinda regret letting her take it but I don't even know if it's a girl or boy and I felt like I can't care for it well (too active in CCA, no time to play with it). :'( I will always remember it's name though. Since this incident I've cancel all thoughts of having a pet because I know I'm not suitable for a pet. 我不配。

How about you? What lengths will you go to keep your favourite pet by your side forever?
