Tea Break at Kado

Posted on By sweet surrender 2 Comments on Tea Break at Kado

This happened few weeks back, only update now hehehe… Had a tea break with my friends at Kado. Ordered some food for our hang out session after class.


Left: Turkey Ham Pancake(RM2.80), it’s quite salty.

Right: Spring Onion Pancake(RM2.80), the smell was quite nice, but texture was noting to rave.


Left: Fries(RM6), the fries was OK, just nice.

Right: Peach Girl(RM8.90), it’s actually peach tea. It was a bit too sweet for us at first so we asked them to add more water. You can get refill for it too. 4 of us shared this pot of tea.

In fact, we split cost for everything ordered. The last time I went to Kado was in 2008 and never stepped there until few weeks ago ;p

The Big Bean

Posted on By sweet surrender 2 Comments on The Big Bean

The Big Bean is located at Sekama. You can see it from the main road. It’s a the corner shop almost opposite Shell. Had lunch there few weeks ago but only update now ;p

Left: Chicken rice (RM2), the rice was dry and the chicken really a bit only but the rice was quite a lot. What do you expect from RM2 chicken rice?

Right: I asked for fried beansprout mee (RM3) but they gave me fried mee(RM4.50). It’s quite oily. You can choose to have prawn or chicken, of course I opted for prawn.

I noticed many stalls closed after 1pm, not many choices left that time.

Have to Change Plan

Posted on By sweet surrender 3 Comments on Have to Change Plan

Finally my second IELTS result is out, same result but different scoring pattern.

This is what I got previously..

This time…

I thought I did very well in the listening this time but aiksss… How come such result? I’m expecting a band score of above 8! Maybe it’s too easy this time around until they adjusted the scale.

As expected… Reading was bad, writing wasn’t very confident too. Ended up, I got 6.5 for reading, fell from the previous 7, I couldn’t complete section 3 and I was expecting the worst. There’s nothing change for writing, what a relief ;p However, still not satisfied but I knew I didn’t do well in it that time.

Speaking improved 1 band, quite happy with it because the topic given to me was the one I did prepare for! So lucky! I saw the topic the night before the test and prepared for it. On that day itself, I was hoping I won’t be getting that topic but I ended having it. Luckily I had prepared the necessary answers for it. Phew… I have no idea why I’m always given with such difficult topic or topic I’m not well-versed in. Good thing I saw this topic and took the trouble to prepare for it. I thought of skipping it some more! Thank goodness.

The average is 7 but still not all 7. At least, this time it’s nearer to the requirement. Good thing for the rounding up, else it’ll be below 7! However, the previous one got an average of exactly 7, no rounding up required all thanks to the listening part. So, I have no idea whether to say there’s improvement or not. No matter what, plan has to be changed and I have my backup plan ready.

Oh well… I don’t want to stress myself too much about IELTS anymore. That’s my English standard so just accept it. I don’t want to resit anymore, it’s not feasible at all.

My Chicken Restaurant, Pending

Posted on By sweet surrender 12 Comments on My Chicken Restaurant, Pending

Do you know that My Chicken Restaurant is opening another branch at Pending? It started business since last week, about a week ago.

It’s located at the same row of Unaco, the new commercial centre at Pending, near Yoshi Square.


Went there on its opening for lunch with my family. There’s opening promotion so we bought the promotion set. The one on the left was the promotion set. The one on the right is the free set that came with the promotion set. All together RM9+, quite worth it if compare to normal priced items on the menu. Each came with a cup of soft drink too.

The other time we bought the fried chicken back, it’s cold when reached home. This time we decided to dine there to reassess the taste. Hmm… Salt and pepper but more salt. It’s not the same like KFC or McD. The more I ate the saltier it got.

You tried it already?

LANCÔME TEINT MIRACLE

Posted on By sweet surrender 1 Comment on LANCÔME TEINT MIRACLE

Mind you, the photos are not edited except resize. All straight out from the camera.
Wanna try out LANCÔME TEINT MIRACLE? The latest liquid foundation by LANCÔME. I saw it in Facebook and decided to try it out. You can check out the details here.

Before I went, I took my before photo with very light makeup(foundation, blusher, mascara) on.

In the after photo, everything on my face was by LANCÔME but please bear in mind that the mini makeover given only include LANCÔME TEINT MIRACLE foundation, blusher, lip colour, and mascara. Mine had more than that because of some reasons I don’t think I can disclose. Sorry about that. Hope you understand.

Can you see any difference? I mean the foundation, seems no difference right? It’s so natural that as if you don’t have any foundation on! Except the smooth skin and the face feature looked more 3D. It didn’t work any wonder for my dark circles. Anyway, it’s not a concealer so ignore that dark circles ;p

It was so lightweight! I was blown away by the lightness! It felt as if nothing on my face if I am to compare it with the other liquid foundation that I had tried before. You only need a little bit of it for the whole face because it’s very easy to spread. I highly recommended it even though the price is quite steep for most people, RM130 for 30ml. I’m holding the sample. My shade is BO-01.

Well… I’m not really the liquid foundation kind of person, my way of makeup is usually very quick and easy. Lack of time, I’ll have foundation, blusher, and lip balm; Have a bit more time, add on with eyeshadow; Even more time, I’ll have mascara to add on. I prefer to use two-way cake. I only use liquid foundation when I have tonnes of time to spare, want a better coverage or when attend some formal evening events.

10 years of research, 7 patents pending: TEINT MIRACLE opens a new era for cosmetics. Its miracle? Aura-Insideâ„¢ Technology, a NATURAL LIGHT CREATOR combining a new generation of pigments inspired by Optical research applied to Biology, with a unique liquid light essence.

A true Lancôme exclusive which works on each component of natural light, both re-emitted and reflected, when traditional foundations only play on surface radiance.

Don’t forget to check this latest liquid foundation out! Hurry before it’s too late!
