Updates and announcements.

Phone Line Gone…

July 12, 2013 sweet surrender 2 Comments

Ok… I really want to update my blog about my recent Paris and England trip but guess what had happened?

Some bastard stole our telephone line two night ago! Means no landline. Means no Internet. Now I’m just relying on my phone’s data plan and it’s too slow to do a proper update.

Will be back as soon as the line is back. For now, I will go through the photos one by one, edit them to prepare for series of blog posts on my recent Paris and England trip.

Till then, for those in Kuching, do enjoy the Kuching Festival food fair which is going to start tonight! YIPEEE!

Buy Aveeno, Bourjois, Vichy and More, Deliver within Malaysia

April 24, 2013April 15, 2015 sweet surrender 4 Comments

**No longer active. Thank you for coming.

I had set up a website for my shopping spree. Do have a look 🙂

I’m not sure how many readers left for my blog. It’s been pretty quiet ever since I left for Australia. Anyway, I’m now back in Kuching for good and I will try my luck promoting my new project here.

So… What I’ve been busying these days apart from job hunt, eat, sleep, and play games? This is my latest project. I’m gonna do a shopping spree between end of June to early July 2013. I’m going to UK and Paris!! Woots! Finally I’m going there!

Since I will be going to UK, I know there are some products which are selling cheaper there and I am going to get it for myself and thought that I might as well help others to get them too if they want. There are also products which are not available in Malaysia and I know there are Malaysians who are using those products and they could only get it online. Therefore, I’m going to help them purchase those products as I’m the user of those products too.

So I started this FB page, Sweet Surrender Shopping Spree:

It’s very simply:

1. “LIKE” my page
2. Make your order based on the products I had listed out.
3. I will confirm your order and you pay 70% of the total to me.
4. When I come back from my trip, before I send the items out, just pay me the balance which is 30% add on with the shipping fee. I will then ship the product to you, right to your doorstep.

As simple as that.

Aveeno, Bourjois, and Vichy are products that I know many Malaysians are using or wanting to get their hands on but it’s not available in Malaysia. Most people would get it online. Why don’t check them out in my page and I can help you get them.

I will be adding in more products and brands from time to time.

One thing to bear in mind though, the items will only be available in July after I got back from my trip. Therefore, if you urgently need it, I won’t be able to deliver. Only those who are willing to wait or only need them after July are welcome to order from me.

Please help me with this little project of mine. If it’s successful, I will do it more often. I’m not sure when will be my next spree after this one so do not miss out in getting your favourite products. I will be the one who personally shop it for you. I figured this will be my one and only shopping spree for 2013.

Please help me by sharing it to your friends. Thanks in advance. Hopefully this project will be a success.

Happy Chinese New Year 2013

February 9, 2013February 9, 2013 sweet surrender 4 Comments

So… It’s CNY’s eve. Gonna have hotpot session with friends then another session of countdown at another location. Last year, I was at Incheon Airport feeling rather sick and spent the rest of the flight sleeping until I reached Singapore on the 1st day of CNY. Then, reached Adelaide on the second day of CNY.

Second year of not welcoming the new year in Kuching. My one last time celebrating CNY in Adelaide. Going home in less than a month. Only the different is that my family is coming here on the 3rd day of CNY and we will be heading to Melbourne and going around Adelaide.

Hope this year will be a better year. Have a prosperous new year everyone! Gonna go missing for quite a long time this time due to the coming family trip and then the endless packing and farewells with friends here.

Have fun and as usual, don’t drink and drive.

Happy 2013!

I know I’m late. I just got back this morning. So tired~

Took more than 1500+ photos for the my New Zealand trip.

We welcomed the new year in Christchurch. It was such a cold night and we were so tired and sleepy from the eventful Queenstown trip. So many things happened and made us realized that God does look after us and things happened for reasons.

I brought NZD600 to spend for food, accommodation, and shopping. At the end, I left NZD5.90 *LOL* Supposed to have at least NZD20+ but I did a final splurge in the departure hall’s duty free shop hahaha…

Basically the following is the summary of my trip:

25th Dec 2012:
Fly from Adelaide to Melbourne and waiting for late night flight to Christchurch.

26th Dec 2012:
Arrive Christchurch early in the morning. After checking in, we went out for Boxing Day shopping! Didn’t shop much but managed to spend on things that I won’t regret. visited two shopping places but got all we need at the first one.

27th Dec 2012:
Tour the route from Christchurch to Queenstown via Mt. Cook. Breathtaking views! Never in my dream that I would see them with my own eyes. I finally did! No regret.

28th Dec 2012:
Supposed to join the tour to Milford Sound but was left behind by the bus even though we weren’t late!! Rather long story, will tell you more when I post about it. We ended up just walk around discover the town.

29th Dec 2012:
Milford Sound tour, another type of scenery. Also something I never thought I would see in my entire life.

30th Dec 2012:
Back to Chrustchurch, 8 hours bus ride. Reached there late, everywhere was closed and we ended up having the most expensive dinner and not-so-satisfying dinner at the casino (at least cheaper than all the other places which were opened after 5pm).

31st Dec 2012:
Went to Sumner beach in the afternoon. Then join the countdown at night at Hagley Park near our YMCA Christchurch. The crowd was well-behaved, amazing!

1st Jan 2013:
Went to 2 shopping malls, rather disappointed because we went to the biggest one on Boxing Day yet we didn’t even buy anything from there. Along the way, we also stop by Univeristy of Cantebury. Our last destination was Lyttelton Harbour.

2nd Jan 2013:
Check out from our accommodation and went to have a look at the botanical garden. Didn’t fully explore it. After that, we headed to the airport for our flight to Melbourne.

3rd Jan 2013:
Spent the whole night at Melbourne Airport waiting for my super early morning flight. Finally I’m back to Adelaide, home sweet home. So much relief.

The whole trip was rather eventful and almost wrecked us intellectually, physically, emotionally, and psychologically but it’s all good. Learnt a lot from it.

Will bombard you with this trip post this month. Hopefully can get it all done before February as there’s another trip in February and in March I’m going home for good.

So, what’s your new year’s resolutions? I don’t have all these while until last year. Thought I had achieved it but it was taken away from me in such short period of time. This year, it’s still the same one ;p.
