SPANX you!

Have you heard about Spanx?
If you haven't... WHAT??!?!??!?!
Where have you been WUUU MAN??!!?

Well, I can't blame you. We don't have it here in Malaysia. Boooooo
However, Spanx is uber famous in America. I love LOVE Spanx. It's every girl's bff. Doesn't mater if you are a size 0 or 16, you must own one. If you're going to a country that sells Spanx or you know anyone who is going there, you should ask them a favor to get you one. I don't use corsets anymore since I managed to grab mine just days before my wedding.
Spanx has different kinds. Check out what they have and see what suits you best. The one that I have is as shown in the pic. I used this when I was in my confinement and it works and feels way better than the too-much-fabric bengkung.
Spanx smooths out everything! Therefore, there's no need to think twice when you want to put on that stocking-like dress in broad daylight.

NO MORE pantylines, NO MORE muffin top, NO MORE lumpa-lumpa-lumpy(visible cellulites).

Why am I promoting Spanx for free? Because I want to share this with you.

Te Quiero Spanx!

OMG I Can Still Cook??!!?!

I'm bad. I've "quit" cooking since I moved to Malaysia. I'm spoiled by all the wonderful cooks they have here, from family members to warongs. I cook only on special occasion IF I feel like it. So far, I've cooked two weekends in a row. I made Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta for Halloween and I made some stir fry beef (which was quite salty) with rice tonight.


Chix Pesto

I got home from KLCC around 6-ish and I was trying to figure out what to eat for dinner tonight.
What the heck, why not cook!
My cousin Fiza came over and took a gorgeous, yeah right, pic of me self cooking away in the kitchen while Maya was all alone in her crib. :)





Nyom Nyom Nyom *BURP*

After dinner, chit chatted with Fiza while I helped her with her makeup for a party she's going to tonight.
I miss those late nights......
*sigh*


Skye '09 with Aza, Danielle, Liz

Maybe someday, for the fun of it.

Well to be honest, I do miss it but not much to get me out of the house now. I just love staying in with my daughter :)))


Deepavali 2010

Wednesday Blues

My unifi is down at the moment. Boooooo..
Hopefully it’ll be up and working soon.


Saw Demi Lavato’s pic on perezhilton.com and I’m in <3 with the color of her hair. I’m thinking about going lighter, few shades lighter, but it’ll take a lot of maintenance and I’m not really up for that. Plus, I don’t quite like the long-ass time it takes to color. Maybe I’ll color it towards the end of this year to welcome the New Year.
 
Btw, I’m still losing MASSIVE amount of hair. Thank god I’m blessed with an Amazon-like hair. I had a nightmare last night; I dreamt that I have my very own crater at the back of my head. Yep, it was horrid. However, I kinda like not having too much hair; my head seems lighter. Oh, I did cut my hair shorter to help slow down my shedding process. It did helped for few days after the cut but nothing is going to stop my scalp from spitting out my hair ):
 
Hair loss shampoo cost too much and I don’t know if they’ll fix this.
 
I really don’t know what to do but to pray for this to end.  
 
Balding Mommy~

Scaredy Cat

I hate it when I feel like there's someone else in the house when both Maya and I are in the room. Every time when I get home from anywhere, only when Faliq's not around, I will spot check the ENTIRE house. All bedrooms, store room, bathrooms, behind the shower curtain, UNDER MY BED; every corner of this house! I will switch on almost all lights and fans just to make my self not feel all alone with Maya in this HUGE space. I hope this feeling will go away soon because I really don't like you -- feeling.

Four Eyes

Yeayyyyy.. Hubby got me a new pair of glasses!

I’ve been wearing glasses since 1999. Yep, it was that long ago! I remember getting all excited when the optometrist told me that I have to wear glasses. I was too anxious the night before getting it from the optical that I couldn’t sleep. I thought glasses equals cool. YEAH RIGHT!

Now, my eye sight is HORRIBLE. It gets worst every single year. LITERALLY! It’s even worst than my mothers and I thought my mother is “blind”. I can’t live without my glasses or contacts and if I can’t afford them I would need a walking stick just like ‘em blinds. *sniff*

However, with vision needing glasses (I can’t work with just contacts), I love shopping for the perfect frame (almost every few years). Shopping for an ideal spectacles is MUY IMPORTANTE. It’s like choosing your perfect bridal dress! I almost will get black frames because, we all know, black is the easiest matcher. Note to all glasses wearers, please take time shopping for one and this is the time you must SPLURGE. I think there’s nothing wrong buying a little expensive ones because, because there’s no reason why we shouldn’t.

I had Chanel previously and this time it’s Prada. This is my second cycle of Prada :)

I work a lot in front of the computer and wearing contacts defines bothersome. Since I must wear makeup to work, obviously lately I’ve been applying my make up in blind. Therefore, I have an easy, car-friendly, makeup routine every morning. Yup I am a pro at applying makeup blindly while driving through traffic. Cautious to all ladies who are or will be attempting this.

I shall share with y’all my makeup routine in my next post. If any are interested.





Till then~

I FINALLY DID IT!

I passed my Module 7 exam and I have now a dealer representative license. Woohooo….

I passed the exam only with one sit unlike Module 6 where I passed after taking it three times.

I thought studying after having a baby would be easier for me since, I thought, my brain would memorize facts better. The truth is it was harder studying when there’s a baby to look after for!





Being the typical me, studying is always best (yeah right) last minute. I tell my self and others the reason why I study last minute is because the things I’ve studied few days before the DAY is fresher than if I were to start studying a month ago. This is true! I tend to forget or get facts all jumbled up if I start studying wayyy before an exam. However, studying the day or two days prior to the exam is not enough to comprehend and memorize every single thing that I need just to PASS the exam. :/

But whatever, I studied for 1 ½ solid days for this exam and I PASSED MY MODULE 7! Yeeeehaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa (thank god I have my in-laws to watch after Maya)

When the facilitator hand me my certificate, I was too close to tears. I wasn’t near like that when I was up the stage getting my Bachelors Degree. :)

This exam was really important to me because the not-so-nice-lady-boss at work would have my head on a chopper block if I failed. P.s. I can always re-sit the exam if I failed but this wasn’t an option for me since Mr. smarty-pants-at-work didn’t fail. :/

How Good Are You With Nursery Rhymes?

Who me?
Yes you.
Ermmmm…(O.o)

Parenting.com sent me an email on “6 Classic Games Every Parent Should Know.”

These are the ones recommended for Maya’s age category.

Pat-a-Cake (2 months and up)

“This is easy for young babies to follow, and as yours starts trying to clap and play along, his coordination and motor skills will get a boost.” 


This Little Piggy (2 months and up)

“Along with prediction and memory skills, your baby will learn about his body.”


Where Is Thumbkin? (4 months and up)

“Babies get a lesson in object permanence, prediction, and body parts. The melody helps young children follow the words.”

The question now, do I know any of these?

Pat-a-Cake - CHECK (thank god for my little cousin’s obsession with Barney & Friends)

This Little Piggy – Errr.. I’ve heard my mom singing it a lot to my younger cousins but I was never able to capture its lyric.

Where Is Thumbkin? – I DON’T KNOWWWWWWWW

I’m a horrible mother! *cries*

I googled baby nursery rhymes and I am shocked to find out that there are EXTREMELY a LOT that I don’t know. *eekkkk*

I got to get my groove on so I can put up a show for my Princess Star :)

This Little Piggy

This little piggy went to market,

This little piggy stayed home,

This little piggy had roast beef,

This little piggy had none,

And this little piggy cried,

"Wee, wee, wee."

All the way home.
