Special Thanks to a Special Website

As a seasoned blogger (I have a veeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrry busy schedule therefore don't have much time to really upkeep this blog ~.~), one of my interests is to browse through other blogs and websites during my free time...some caught my attention, some did not...and those that caught my attention were really good (at least good to my liking lol)...

One website that I particular like is La Vogue Femme...tagline of the website: "Stay Beauty and Be Inspired Always"...re-typing the tagline already made me inspired lol (^^)

Well, I never met this website's author, nor did I have any private communication via online with the author...So why do I like the website?

If you have been following my blog loyally, you'd know that I love beauty giveaways...I love trying different kind of beauty products, be it skincare, cosmetics, hair care, body care, styling tools etc (thank God I have a very good tolerant skin), and La Vogue Femme 'understands' exactly my love lol xD xD

How, or rather why? 

Starbucks Lucky Treat

I was merely helping my colleague to pay for the Starbucks via RHB Debit Card (because there was promotion buy 1 free 1 on every Fridays, until 31 December 2012; and only I have the RHB Debit Card)....then the barista 'surprised' me "Heh ya!!! You are our lucky customer today!!!"

Apparently Starbucks were having this promotional campaign to get the lucky patrons to do some customer experience survey on Starbucks. As a token of appreciation, the participants can redeem any beverage of tall size, within 14 days of the receipt date.

Remove Background in Pictures - the Easy Way !!

Have you always feel frustrated when looking for easy-to-use image editing software that able to remove the background of a picture?

I do sometimes, as I'm not very proficient in using professional image editing software, e.g. Photoshop...

But today I discovered one great tool in MS Office 2010, that I just have to share with all ^^

Take this picture for example...So how do I use MS Office 2010 to remove the background, and only retain the house (the subject)?

Free Sausage McMuffin with Egg ~woohoo!!

McDonalds Malaysia has been so generous lately (maybe because of the controversy lately? Hmm....)

Only on 19 November, McD branches have offered Sausage McMuffin with Eggs, up to 1000 burgers at each branch. Then on the very next day itself, there are cutout coupons from TheSun where by using the coupon, within 21-25 November, you can redeem the burger for free!!! Yeah :D :D

                                                                                                     * T&C applies *

Within this week I have visited McDonalds Citta Mall twice, just to enjoy my favourite McD morning burger... yum yum :P

Time to visit the gym and pool >.<"

Curling Hair with Sponge Curler

As I did not book any make up artist for my wedding reception at Bagan Serai, I was looking for simple DIY hairstyling on the web. Then I saw this key-shaped sponge curler on a website of an online shop. Among benefits it claims are you can sleep with it overnight since it's very soft, and that it curls hair without heat so it is not damaging the hair.

But the price was not cheap. RM20 for a spongee thingy?? No way....I have to let it go...

Then one fine day while shopping at the AEON (formerly Jusco) pharmacy, I saw the same product on the display rack...and it was darn cheap at only RM6.90!!!!

 

So I took one pack and made my payment.
