Funky Find: Expression Factory App

Came across this app and it is too cute not to share. Was spamming the BF with the ridiculously cute videos.

Shall not share those that I made for him, but here are some I made for myself to amuse him :P

First video I did wasn't too good. My heart when I see him. Lol...

My version of the Hunger Games, me being hungry and then growing fat like a pig. I like the pig one best! An absolute LOL!

Made a few set of ridiculous angry GIF, since I have anger management issues, o'really?

And last but not least, for every buddha feet grabber, the Guan Yin Ma epic. 

If you want to have some laughter in your life too, you can find the app. Just search for Expression Factory. I know Apple store has it, not too sure about the others. Have fun~!~ GIF yourself some smiles. Life is too short to waste it away sulking. :P

Her World X Ion Orchard Dining Day Out

Now I know why so many people enjoy being food bloggers, Singapore is just a place where all good food congregate. Came across this event online and thought the BF would like it since I think a good portion of his thoughts is filled with "Jia-k" more than me. *Sounds like a love rival alert*

And so being such a scheming young lady, I needed to come between him and his one true "food-hunting" love. We will go eat all the nice, yummy food at Ion all in a day!!!

Depending on the group you were arranged into, we visited Pu Tien first.

1. Fried Heng Hwa Bee Hoon with Soy Milk: The publicity manager was telling us some romantic love story behind this bee hoon. This is an absolute must-try and is available only at Ion Pu Tien. Even without some fancy PR story, this would have naturally been a top seller.
2. Stewed Water Caltrop: Tasted a bit like the Gao-luk. One of the seasonal dishes. Try it before it is gone!
3. Stir-Fried Shrimp with Sweet Corn: A typical Chinese Zi-Char vegetable but the corn is so delicious. Note they are like in bunches so they are very juicy (Squirted on the BF...Ooops)
4. Yucca Root with Crab Roe Sauce: The BEST! This is my favourite. It is also a seasonal dish. I will be so sad when it is gone :(

Overall, I really like Pu Tien. It is giving DTF a good run for its money. Do try their home-made chilli as well. A not to be missed.

Second Stop was Nara Thai. Tried it before so I wasn't that excited despite being a huge Thai food fan. And thank god, we tasted Pu Tien before Nara Thai, imagine if it is the other way round, the Chinese food would taste too blend. And this doesn't do justice to it.

1. Yum Som O - Pomelo Salad: I think it is supposed to be a refreshing dish, but it just doesn't suit my taste.
2. Phunim Phad Pong Karee - Stir-fried Soft Shell Crab with Yellow Curry: The curry was too sweet for me.
3. Hor Mak Talay - Grilled Thai Otah with mixed seafood: By default, this was my favourite dish. But the Otah is a bit too soft for my liking
4. Signature Cooler Drinks - Rose Lime Cooler and Watermelon Limeade: A lot of the people loved the Rose Lime. I just thought it tasted weird. Watermelon Limeade was my life saver in this meal. 

For me it is quite a disappointment. My conclusion is I am just not into Thai Fusion Food. I heard Nara Thai is really popular in Thailand though. Maybe my taste bud is just weird cos I love their herb blue rice but to many other people it taste "the same". My suggestion is go to West Gate's Nara Thai instead. That outlet is really good and pick the normal favourites like Phad Thai, Tom Yum etc. It will be worth the calories.

Our last stop was Wrap & Roll. I walked past it a few times before but never really tried it out. And you know what, I should have went in!!!

1. Hanoi Frilled Turmeric Fish Dill
2. Grilled Pork Steamed Rice Crepe Roll
3. Grilled Chicken with Lime Leaves
4. Lotus Shoot Salad with Prawn

This was the shop that really made their good instagram worthy. I was really full by the time we were at our 3rd stop. It was great they gave us sampling portion. I don't really take Viet food much, so I don't know how good it ranks against the rest. But one thing for sure, I am definitely going back again to try their dish. :P Plus their name is my favourite past-time. LOL Wrap yourself in the blanket and Roll around in bed. I support my own kind!

Ending off with a heart-shaped prawn. Beautiful isn't it? Next time I will do such frivolous plating if I ever cook a meal for my BF. 

The event itself was really a good one. Do join if Her World host another like this. I heard they do that quite a lot cos a good deal of the participants are serial joiners. I enjoyed myself so much I think I might become one too. Oops....

Review: Skinny Dipping with Braun Silk Epil 7

Cos I wanted to go skinny dipping so I got a Braun epilator. This is not the latest model, but during its time, it was dope! Never ever tried this method of hair removal, but I have read, heard about it and one of my friend even uses it. I didn't see her use it but her skin is really smooth. We are guessing it is the epilator and a good moisturizer at work?

So good for me, I got to test it out and guess what, I actually kinda like it. My favourite is still IPL cos it is more permanent. Epilating is a little like waxing. It rips the hair out. I know I am using the word "rip", it is not really that painful. Either that, you sort of get use of the pain. For beauty, what's a little nip!

My only grouse is that the manual is not very informative. Wait, hold on, you read the manual?!? Yeah, I did cos of the many parts of the epilator and I didn't really want to spoil it. But because it didn't have the information I was looking for, I ended up just using my brain to figure it out *Sounds extremely reluctant to put that big head into use*

The different parts are useful in the sense it can better suit the different parts of your body. But for me, I just the same one cos I am too lazy to change it. The Silk Epil 7 is relatively water-proof so you can use it during shower. I find it more effective to use it on dry skin though.

Spoiling every guy's fantasy of Ariel. HAHAHA~

My final verdict

1. IPL - Permanent
2. Epilator - Less Painful then waxing and the procedure is simpler - work it like shaver. It still leave some short hair though. Doesn't take too much concentration and you can do it in your own comfort. Multi-tasking is also made possible since it ain't that much of a dangerous tool. It really can't rip your skin out. 
3. Wax - Painful, but it get rids a good deal of the hair.
4. Shaving - I don't use this method at all, cos the blades would destroy my sensitive leg skin. It removes even the short-hair.
