These are books(paper based or electronic based) and toys for children even adults that want to learn English can use them such as the Leap Frog products on the bottom right. There are also CDs for babies and children even also for the baby inside you.


I’m very sure the big kids are fascinated by these hahaha…


CROCS!!! *AHEM* I can see somebody jumping up and down now… You know who you are. They have wide range of CROCS for you, the size range from children to adult. There’re many shades of PINK CROCS! Hahaha… You hear PINK!?! Eeek… I forgot to try on a pair of CROCS, I’m have no idea why so many people go crazy over it, I should have use this opportunity to try them out but I didn’t.

Poppies – Mommy Chapter

Posted on April 29, 2008April 28, 2008 By sweet surrender 8 Comments on Poppies – Mommy Chapter

After seeing the things for babies, we must not forget about the mommies also. Daddies should from time to time pamper the mommies. Without them, you won’t have your babies. Hahaha… Let’s see what you can give to your wife to make her feel that you love and care and play an active role for your children.


Left: Some all time favourite pregnancy and childbirth books are available.
Right: Breast pumps for mommies. For some guys, you must be wondering what is this for. Hahaha… It’s for your wife to pump the breast milk out to store in bottles for your kids! Got it??!?! Breastfeeding is good for your baby and personally I strongly support breastfeeding. πŸ™‚ I’m not breastfed last time, I was fed with S26, formulated milk that was quite popular back then, now there are many brands available.


Pregnant women also want to feel pretty, deserve to wear nice clothings too. Poppies also offer maternity clothings. In May, there will be a fashion show and talks for parent-to-be and various activities by Poppies at tHe Spring. I will keep you updated about it.



Your wife deserves to be pampered with beauty and health products that do not contain harmful substances to the baby. Oh My Sweetness!!(I’m going to use this from now in instead of OH My Goodness or OMG hahaha…) Anything that is safe for pregnant ladies are safe for you are me. So if you are looking for lotions, creams, shower gels, lipbalms, soaps and so on that are safe for use, you can get these, they are all quality products imported from US, Aus, NZ and UK. Told you this shop is for everyone hahaha…


It’s a mommy friendly shop where you can use the diaper changing room or nursing room to change your baby diaper or breastfed your baby in there.

Poppies carries wide range of products for mommies from the time she got pregnant to after the baby is born. I only show you some here, there are also baby slings, nursing pads, bras, pillows, maternity sanitary pads, surgical ring cushions and so on. Check them out at Poppies. I’m sure you will find what you need there.

Next up… Things for older babies, kids and big kids like us!! WAKAKA… I saw some nice stuffs there… Can someone buy for me? Please… *BLEK*

Poppies – Baby Chapter

Posted on April 28, 2008April 29, 2008 By sweet surrender 9 Comments on Poppies – Baby Chapter

Poppies is a type of flower. Did you know there’s another meaning for it? You know how the locals here like to called babies “ang gugu”? People overseas will call their babies “poppies”. Interesting, I didn’t know this until I visited Poppies at tHe Spring to see what they have to offer. It’s a new shop that sells stuffs for babies, children, mommies and also the big kids like us hahaha… Was honoured to be invited to feature this place in my blog by My Privilege Book and Poppies. I went there yesterday with few more Kuching Bloggers. They were Alex and Deluxe, Anna, Cherlyn, Edwin, and Jimmy.

I’m sure if we don’t have children or babies or intend to shop for friend’s baby shower and so on, you won’t be stepping into this shop. How wrong was I. I will split this post into parts to share with you the interesting stuffs that I found in there. This shop is for everyone!!


Left: Do check out the islands to find great offers that they have from time to time. Every Wednesday, they will have some special offers on certain products. It’s a good time to go and look around on stuffs for your poppies hehehe…
Right: Kids will surely be bored, so they can play here but of course must have someone looking after them, don’t leave them there alone to play.



Things for your baby’s bedroom. You can get cots, mattress, pillows, cradles, blankets and so much more!! Spoilt for choices hahaha… Cuteness overdose also hahaha…


Clothes for babies are available also.


These had grabbed our attention! It’s stockings!! Hehehe… So cute!! Great for gift.


Things for feeding your babies. Major brands are available here such as Avent, Chicco etc. You can get stuffs from UK, US, NZ or Aus here. You don’t have to fly to KL for it anymore. This is why the owner started this business as she had problem looking for things for her baby last time. The first shop is located in Sibu, I’m sure those living in Sibu will know Poppies. This is the second shop, opened in March in tHe Spring.


Milk powder and diapers are essentials for babies. It’s never cheap but you can get benefits from Poppies if you are their member. Signing up as a member only require RM30 for lifetime membership, no annual renewal, no expiration of points. RM1=1 point and you can use these accumulated points to get freebies or enjoy special offers. Special card is given to you to record down the number of milk powder and diapers that you had purchased. With 10 stamps collected, you are entitle for selected offer.


Car seats and strollers. We were told that you must start putting your baby on car seat as early as possible so that when he/she got older, he/she will get used to the idea and won’t make a fuss about it. Start early is the key.


Baby food from Australia. Very colourful hehehe… Wanna try?

Maybelline Volum’ Express Hypercurl

Posted on April 19, 2008April 19, 2008 By sweet surrender 4 Comments on Maybelline Volum’ Express Hypercurl

Hehehe… My first time blogging with my XPS πŸ˜›

My first time buying new mascara in less than 4 months, I usually only buy new one when the old one finishes or can no longer be used that would be around 1 year. What to do? Elianto’s failed me… It cannot be used anymore, clotted and drying up.


I saw this new one from Maybelline, Maybelline Volum’ Express Hypercurl, is it new? Hahaha… Consider new I guess… Bought it for RM27+ at Watson. It’s hypoallergenic and contact lens-safe.

Here’s the effect, I only used two coats without eyelash curler, just quick application without paying much attention to the details.

Left: No mascara.
Middle: First coat.
Right: Second coat which I didn’t intend to apply but due to my itchy hand, I decided to apply it again but the first coat had dried long ago *LOL* You should not let it dries in between coats πŸ˜›

See the effect? It claims that it can give 75 degree curled lashes with their patented Curl-Lock formula, 3X the volume, without clumps.

Here’s how to get it works:
Roll on this mascara in a zig-zag motion, from the roots to the tips. Apply a few coats till the desired effect is achieved.

I didn’t do that πŸ˜› I just applied like usual, I’m quite satisfied with the effect. No smudge too. After removing the mascara, the curling effect is still there for 2 days. I’m sure if I had followed the instructions, the effect will be so much more obvious.

The brush is quite different from what I normally get from other mascaras that I had tried before. It’s curved, I found out from a TV show about beauty where they said that you must use the brush the “n” way instead if the “u” way. “n” way will curl your lashes, “u” way will not have much effect.

Basically that’s about it. This is my third mascara from Maybelline. My budget for mascara is below RM30, I never go for anything more than this hehehe… I know there are better ones out there that are more expensive but I still can’t seem to get myself to spend this much on mascara πŸ˜›

Blogging since 2002. Anything before 2006 is no longer available. It is no longer on this server. Back then, I built my own blog and updated it using HTML. No database or anything. Only started blogging fully with a CMS in 2006. However, whatever was on the Internet will stay on the Internet. So... It should be still somewhere on the Internet. Then again... Why do you want to dig that far?
