#18 Nicknames

I have my own fair share of nicknames as you all do, I'm sure. I have nicknames from primary school, to secondary and to college *laughs*



Okay, let's start with the 'non related to my name' nicknames like...
-skin and bones(Okay, this was in primary where I was literally skin and bones and people used to laugh at me that if a strong wind comes I'll be blown away) But yeah, that was a long time ago and I'm definitely no longer skin and bones. I have FATS now -.-

- shopaholic(yes, I'm famously known as the shopaholic coz I can shop till I break a leg LOL)

- nerd(Although, I strongly disapprove of this nickname coz only the people in my house really knows whether I'm a nerd or not and let me assure you, it's NOT)

- and of course, now, I'm the Dreamer =)) and yes, I do love this name. I created it after all *laughs*

Nicknames related to my name:
- kit kat(coz my middle Chinese name 'Keat' does sound like the chocolate bar XD)

- kitty cat(the extension of that name -.- and also because I used to go CRAZY over Hello Kitty *laughs*) This nickname is the most famous among my friends in secondary. I hope none of them start calling me with this name again haha

#unicef4MOMS

Mother's Day is just around the corner. In conjunction with Mother's Day, UNICEF is joining the people in Malaysia to pay tribute to their mothers for their unconditional love and affection in raising the next generation.



Do you know that 350,000 mothers die from pregnancy and childbirth complications every year? A woman in a least-developed country is 300 times more likely to die in childbirth or from pregnancy-related complications than a woman in a developed country.

A mother’s death in childbirth denies her children their natural, primary caregiver. Infants whose mothers die within the first six weeks of their lives are more likely to die before reaching age two than infants whose mothers survive.

These deaths can be prevented. UNICEF knows that the most effective way to protect mothers is to ensure that a trained provider with midwifery skills is present at every birth, along with transportation, quality obstetrics and emergency care. 

Therefore, UNICEF works to ensure that access to emergency obstetric care and the provision of skilled midwives are a priority in national health plans, and assists its partners with assessments, training and logistics. 

You can play your part by donating supplies for children and women HERE or you can share the love by spreading awareness about this campaign =)

Freshlook Colorblends review


My new Freshlook Colorblends boxes! *happy*

I was really excited when my package of contact lenses arrived! Now, I get to review the Freshlook Colorblends contact lenses =)) In my previous post I have mentioned this will be my first time wearing coloured contact lens. All thanks to MrLens, where I redeemed my contacts and plusizekitten for selecting me to review!!




MrLens is the largest online distributor of contact lenses from Europe in Malaysia now. They were also the finalist in the prestigious Swiss Economic Award in 2008. They are the largest online inventory of Contact Lenses at the lowest price in Malaysia with Free Delivery(for selected areas and purchases above RM50) Look it up here: shipping

The pricing is much cheaper from what you get from the optometrist shops for certain brands. For me, my usual contacts cost so much cheaper, like RM30 cheaper if bought from MrLens. I'm so going to order my contacts online from now on! Cost-effective =)

I heard that they ship really fast as well, like in one day if it's a popular brand or power less than -6.00. I have bad vision(unfortunately), so it took time for my contacts to arrive. It took a little less than 2 weeks for it to arrive as it promised 14 days. Nevertheless, the package arrived safely!

Finally arrived!!




Guess what? So kind of them to add in 3 packets of Fisherman's friend samples as well =)

So, what colours did I choose? *drumrolls*

True Sapphire and Honey! (yes,I photoshopped the power >.<)

I wanted colours that will 'pop', so I decided on these two colours. I mean what's the point of wearing coloured contacts if no one's going to notice, right? =p

In this post, I'm going to review the True Sapphire contacts. I was so excited that I immediately used it when my package arrived! Finally, my eyes get to dress up in colours as well *winks*







True Sapphire


TA-DAH!! *with flash*

*without flash*

I absolutely LOVE it! My eyes immediately transformed into the most mesmerising blue! I never had blu-er eyes before! 

Okay here are the comparisons:

With True Sapphire *with flash*


Saw how dramatic my eyes are with flash? If you're worried about how artificial it will look, don't. See the pic without flash. It's actually quite natural looking. Most of my friends thought it's quite natural looking as well =)

If you're not sure, which colours to choose under the Freshlook Colorblends range, go to this website: http://www.freshlookcontacts.com.sg/tryon.html You can try on the colours and here's my experiment:

This was how I was supposed to look!

This is how I actually looked! Similar right?

So, the website is actually quite accurate for you to experiment the colours if you're spoilt for choices of colours and don't know which to choose, like me =)

So many beautiful colours!

I'm such a satisfied customer! Not to mention, it's very comfortable. I wore it for 10 hours straight and 3/4 of the time was in an air conditioned room, but my eyes didn't feel dry at all. And I've just got to relate this experience; I was in class when my lecturer asked me a question and instead of hearing my answer she was swooned over my eyes, and mentioned that my eyes have changed colour *laughs*

This blue contacts got me a lot of attention in just one day of wearing it! Needless to say my eyes were the centre of attention haha

Therefore, I would like to share with you readers about how you can also get eyes like me AND obtain discounts from MrLens. Firstly, they have a Friend Recommendation Program.

More pics =)) None are photoshopped. The colour is exactly what you see...


COMPARISON(clear contacts on the left and true sapphire on the right with same lighting)

I found the colour is more visible during broad daylight as you can see the 'blue' better where the pictures below demonstrates:
