Bought this mint in 711, Taiwan. It costs 45twd, roughly $2 It is slightly sour but not as sour as sourheads. Bought it mainly for the design!! :) There are a few other designs but none with bob filling the entire box. Patrick is cute too! I'm now using the container for other mints!...

Review: Sony Cybershot TX5 - underwater camera

The Sony TX5 is a waterproof (up to 3m) and shockproof (up to 1.5m) digital camera. I LOVE IT! The colours on the photos are vivid and detailed enough. The lens, is also wide enough for group photos, which comes in handy for overseas shots when you need to capture both the people and the landscape. Battery life is also goood; able to last for a entire day out.  We had a lot of fun with the underwater function in the pool. It was hard trying to pose underwater but that was part of the fun! :)  The camera also does night shots well. My friends commented that the flash is pretty strong.  However, it is VERY prone to scratches...

Review: Bali

Was in Bali for 5 days in mid-May. Stayed in a villa with a private pool. It was awesome! It was extremely sunny and I got burnt by the sun! Stay protected guys and girls! I love the view from the Monkey Temple! The view overlooking the ocean from the cliff was gorgeous!! I didnt managed to catch the sunset there, but it was already breathtaking. Caught the sunset from the beach at Wonderland. The waters is more suitable for pro surfers i feel. The waves are a lot stronger than the ones at Kuta. I highly recommend the bbq corn. It costs around 10k rp. Please do remember to bargain! The charcoal gave the corn a unique taste, and the sweet sauce...

Review: Sasha hair vitamin

Bought this from carrefour, batam. It can also be found in most supermarkets in batam. It costs around 21,000rp which is around $3+ for 40 capsules. (this is alot cheaper than Ellips hair capsules which costs around 40k rp for 50 capsules. ) One factor that I consider essential for hair products is smell. I just used one of the capsule and it smells good! It smells tangy but still sweet. It is actually just hair oil packaged in capsules. Some hair oil is so heavy that it really weighs down hair and causes hair loss! The Sasha hair vitamins isn't too heavy and does moisturise the hair. Untangles hair pretty well. I dont think I can find...

Review: Data plan

Most would think it's stupid to have a smart phone without a data plan. Well, not me! My first smart phone was a htc diamond, I then changed to nokia n97 and now I'm using a iPhone 4.. I have never gotten a data plan and do not have any regrets! As a student, I do not need to check my emails 24/7. I figured that my data plan would be mostly used for Facebook. Sure, i might read the news occasionally. But I still prefer newspapers. They are more substantial and detailed. So I asked myself, if Facebook were to charge me $10(cost of data plan) to use their services, would I accept? Since i am always either in school or at home or at...

Review: Rich Dad Poor Dad

I was motivated by a friend to read more about Robert Kiyosaki. He posted a video about Kiyosaki. Kiyosaki was talking about the four different quadrants of people. I didn't finish watching the video. Instead, I read the book. My friend asked for my opinion and to him, I responded in a poor dad way. I said that opening a business is too risky for me. I am obsessed with security. I believe that businesses are risky and not worth the risk. Sure, you can get very rich but the time and the risk are too overwhelming. I want freedom but I value stability too! Kiyosaki understood that being a business owner is one of the toughest thing a person...

Review: L'oreal Revitalift Double Eye Lift

Got this from my mum. She stopped using it, so it probably wasn't very useful for her. But she has a habit of not finishing her beauty products, so I wouldn't really trust her. :) I am in my 20s and only tried the L'oreal Revitalift Double Eye Lift because I needed a moisturizer for my eye area. I have been using it for a week now, and I like it! I don't really have wrinkles but I do have natural eye bags and dark eye circles. Although I haven't seen any significant improvements to my eye bags or dark eye circles, it really lifted my eyelids! I was born with inner double eye lids (it looks a lot like single eyelids; the crease can only...

Review: Merose Hair Restorer

Bought this from a random beauty shop in AMK some time back. Around $15-$18 if I'm not wrong. It is from Merose Hair cosmetics Tokyo Japan. I tried googling the company but did not get any results. So yes, it is a bit dodgy and random. So if you like to buy random products or have already bought one, read on... According to the label, it is supposed to activate hair roots and prevent hair from dropping. It can also restore hair healthiness and shine! I have been using it on-and-off for a few months now (before the spray spoilt). I haven't seen much improvement, but I have to admit that it feels damn shiok! It feels like a scalp treatment,...

Review: Sunsilk leave on conditioner

The leave on treatment smells very sweet! I have the silky smooth and the damage repair one. I think the silky smooth one with the yogurt really smells very nice! Even if it doesn't work, I will still buy it for it's smell. Works like a hair perfume! It works best when applied onto semi-wet hair. It smoothens hair well and is very affordable. Good for humid Singapore! It might get a little oily so don't put too much! Will continue using! :) Leave a comment and tell me what you think!...
