Tired week…..
Tired aaaa!!!
This week I OT 3 nights already… very tired… so tired…. but more work to come …
I don’t even have time to edit my pictures… *sigh*……
Dinner at Yataimura

Sister craved for Japanese food… I cracked my head to think of where can we have Japanese food in Penang… thought of going to Miraku Restaurant @ G Hotel…. but when I picked her up after work… she said that she wanted to go Yataimura @ Pulau Tikus….


Mom doesn’t have her dance class that night… so she joined us for dinner…


It’s food time!
1. Octopus sushi… damn nice lor!

2. Mom can’t eat raw food… so we ordered Shoju ramen for her…

3. Hotate @ Scallop…. so small and so expensive… even worse than Tao’s scallop… not worth to order this RM 16.90

4. Sashimi! They have offer that day… RM 16.90… normal price is RM 19.90… erm…. quite fresh … so still worth it

5. Salmon, Tuna wrap with vege… niceeee

6. Unagi handroll…. I seldom order handroll… so… this is quite alright for me…

7. How can me missed out edamame? Mom’s favourite.. and the Edamame here really nice compared to Sushi Kind & Sakae Sushi & Azuma

8. Tako Wasabi… tasted weird weird…. not nice…. so don’t try it next time

9. Last but not least ~ Papaya + Salmon skin salad…. niceeeee…. the salmon skin very crispy
but mom & sis said the dressing too sour… to me still alright

Well…. the food quite satisfying…. no complain at all… will go to have a try again when got chance… but I would want to try other Japanese restaurant first

Lunch at Chou Shun Kan
It was my colleague ~ Rachel’s birthday… we were voting on where to celebrate her birthday out of 3 choices – Yataimura, Chou Shun Kan and Tsuruya.
Well.. I always wanted to try on Chou Shun Kan… and I never have the chance… cuz dinner was super expensive… and I missed the last lunch at Chou Shun Kan… so I definitely go for Chou Shun Kan…
And there we went…. with pre-ordered lunch set… my colleagues even have the menu ready for us pre-order… lol…

Chou Shun Kan was situated at Krystal Point… a small shop with a great cook. I have heard so much abut this shop and yet to try it out… Sher and Lam kept telling me the kimchi soup is the best in Chou Shun Kan…. but it it quite costly…and they charge for their green tea + side dishes…. compared to big korean franchise like Daorae & Korea Palace.
I like the place… quite cozy… and they use traditional stove for BBQ! Damn cute la


My serving of tofu chige set…. cost me RM 20 include the tax + drinks… quite worth it for set lunch

Close up on my tofu chige:

It tasted soooooooooooooo nice!!!! Really did not regret tryig it out! Damn nice!
The tofu chige comes with more tofu compare to kimchi chige where kimchi chige comes with more kimchi
But both the soup taste the same
They even free us BBQ chicken + pork as there were 16 of us… so each table got extra free BBQ… niceeeeee


Satisfied lunch…
Anyway Happy birthday to Rachel….

I’m 1k poorer
Ya …. the title says it all… I’m RM 1k poorer..in credit card debt…
Reason?
*sigh*… remember I mentioned my stupid phone failed on me? I can’t even press any key on the keypad…. So I have to get a new phone… and I don’t have money that allows me to get a fancy phone… so… just a normal candybar phone cuz I have tried flip phone and slide phone which failed on me so easily…. damn pissed d… so… have to get just the normal candybar phone


>> Cheapo me just got this at RM 400….
The remaining RM 600+…spent on these in less than 1 hours:

1. Etude House ~ Lipgloss:

Price after discount: RM 12
2. Moisturizer + Dead skin removal gel:

>> This moisturizer (in bubble pink bottle) has the ingredient which will helps to reduce wrinkles and firm up my face. It also makes my pores smaller…… damn small bottle lor… but the result was amazing!
Price: Liposome – Moisturizer: RM 158, removal gel: RM 68
3. Sunblock:

>> The sunblock texture acts a bit like the BB foundation… it makes my pores smaller and my skin smoother… I like the results after putting it
Price: RM 148
4. Mask:

>> The promotion was “Buy 2 free 1″… so I shared with Sher …. 1 bottle cost RM 39 only if buy 2 free 1… quite ok la… just put a thin layer on my face and it is quite refreshing
Price for 1 bottle: RM 58
5. Angel eye set ~ Consists of mascara + 2 types of fiber for my eyelashes extension:

>> End result was amazing and the price is even much more amazing: RM 227
I wanted to make my eyelashes longer…. I even try to put in a fake eyelashes that I bought last 2 weeks….but I didn’t manage to put it on… *sigh*

So anyone want the free pairs of fake eyelashes? I got 6 pairs left… and it comes with a bottle of free glue. I can meet up for those in Penang… but for those outstation, you got to bear with the shipping cost if you want me to ship it to you… email me @ iloveivylim@gmail.com if you are interested
Alright… back to the result of this amazing Angel Eye … I pay for the price of such results:






Isn’t the result amazing?
Well… now I’m RM 1k poorer… cuz of my low mood.. *sigh*… I even wonder why am I buying all the products when I’m already broke… well… retail teraphy works for some people… but does it works on me? Hmm…..

Weekend in Singapore
Went to Singapore over the last weekend….it was meant to be a mind relaxing trip… but my mind was not controllable… kept thinking the man..been dreaming of him as well…. *sigh*…
Anyway… back to my trip to Singapore… I found that there were really really a lot of foreign workers from China, Vietnam, Burma, India, etc in SG.. I wonder why… hmmm….. it’s like stepping out of Orchard/Vivo City you can see foreigners all over the street… hardly see Singaporean… ok la.. I might be a bit exaggerated… lol… but really everywhere also can see foreigners… those from Asia one… not those ang mo…
I took night bus to Singapore on Friday night…Reached SG was Saturday 7 morning… walked to MRT station to meet up girlfriend and check in to hotel…..
#1 ~ Saw this very nice condominium on the way to MRT station… felt a sudden rush to snap a pic to daydream awhile…thinking how nice it will be if I’m able to stay there…it is really nice condo isn’t it? Looks very clean and classy…

Went for lunch after checked-in hotel…. simply choose a Taiwanese shop at Plaza Singapura…went there to check out telco’s plan as girlfriend wanted to get a new phone plan….

Dinner at this Han’s place at Marina Place…. suppose wana walk to Merlion there.. but girlfriend don’t know the place… and we kinda lost at Raffles Place-Marina Place… then my leg was pain cuz of my shoe… ended up having dinner inside Marina Place…..need to self service sumore… lol… I felt that it’s like a trend in SG… order + pay first… then the food will be sent to you… hmm… easier for the staff…
#8 ~ Ice Milo:

#9 ~ Fried rice + egg:

#10 ~ Chicken Omelet:

>> The portion of the food was so bigggg…. I wasn’t really hungry and thought of ordering an omelet… but turned out the portion was so big… super full man! arghh!!! Want to keep fit also cannot…
I wore this shoe to SG…. leg was super pain after whole day walk… so I bought a beach slipper at Marina Place… at $9.90… felt so much better and relax after removed my shoe… lol…..
#11 ~ My shoe -> Good to see.. not good to wear:

>> I even took off my shoe at the MRT station cuz leg really too pain d… beh tahan d la! Aiyo…I’m not that famous oso.. so… no one will recognize me

#13:

Lunch at this mussel shop… wanted to try their Spicy Mussel… but …. the spicy tasted more like nasi lemak sambal than spicy taste from the mussel I had tasted in Australia last year.. can’t compare the spicy mussels here with Australia… Australia one really nice… yummy… thou the mussels size were smaller in AUS but the gravy was nicer… yummier! yum yum…
#14 ~ The Mussel Guy:

#15 ~ Cream soup:

#33 ~ My flight back to Penang:

>> It was a fully booked flight… damn crowded….
*sigh*… this was the first time I took a flight myself… normally I will have company with me… but not this time… and I even forgotten my pills… again normally I will have my anti-vomitting, anti-dizziness pills with me… cuz I will feel dizzy when I take a plane… especially if the pilot don’t know how to land/fly the plane….
Lucky me… this time I didn’t feel sick cuz I slept all the way till the plane almost landed… too tired…
I was really fortunate to have supportive friends in SG…. thanks to their accompany and hospitality I had the opportunity to visit SG again… thou I was suppose to free my mind and my stupid mind doesn’t listen to me… but… I’m glad that I went to SG…
Thou this trip added a hole in my pocket… but… whatever la! Don’t care! Just spend nia la! lol…
When I’m there.. I misses here.. when I’m on the plane.. I misses SG … *sigh*…. so complicated………

Education comic ~ Challenged
My colleague sent me this comic.. named Challenged…. I found it really useful and it came in at the right time….






Thanks to this lovely girl… and thanks to the message this comic try to convey….
We as a grown up need to set our own goals and motivate ourselves to move towards our own goals… no one can help us to achieve what we want… friends and family can only motivate us and be with us as our mentor but we ourselves need to move our on our own if we want to succeed.
Lets work towards our own dreams and goals today! No obstacle should stop us from moving forward… it’s only us that don’t want to take one step out.. it’s the devil in us that do not wish us to be a better person. So why let the devil in you control you? We should control our own life… our own future….
I have taken one step forward, have you taken yours or you still prefer to remain at the current sucky situation?
