Eye regiment

Finally, finally I am free from eye infection. It took me 3 months to completely heal from this stern eye infection. Long story short, this is due to working hazard during my industry training. No contact lens but eye glasses for 24/7 x 3 months. Phew… unfortunately, the doctor found a hole in my retina but luckily my “??” still able to protect my retina. But once I feel something wrong with my vision I have to go back to the doctor for an operation/laser. Now I’m very safe at the moment. Here are my new eye care routine.

1) Medicine/Eye Drop

These are the medicine that I’m using for the past 3 months. Currently I’m still using lubricant eye drops for my dry eye.

2) Contact Lens



I am no longer using Geo cosmetic lens (Korea). I was advice from an optician to use a better quality cosmetic contact lens which provide more oxygen to my eye. She also recommended me to use disposable contact lens.

Review: ASOS



Finally I receive my shoe from ASOS.  I was so happy with my purchase. It fit me perfectly for the size of UK6. By the way, I was pretty surprise that the shoe is made in India instead of China.  Previously I bought a brogue shoe at Gmarket and it is made in China. Is really uncomfortable and my leg end with blister. But this shoe is so different. These shoes have a distinctive design and the material is made from leather. The upper of the shoe is made of leather and the lining & sock are made from textile and leather. How can I not to admit it was a really comfortable shoe?

Review: Purple Cane eShop



Finally I found rose tea at Purple Cane eShop. It is very hard and rare to find flower scented tea at Malaysia (correct me if I’m wrong). The price is quiet reasonable and the quality of the tea itself is consider very fine and aromatic. I felt the taste is incongruity between XX Jasmine green tea and Purple Cane jasmine green tea. Overall, I will give them 5/5. Since they have an eShop, I feel my life is much convenience now. I can simply place an order when I’m running out of tea. Unfortunately, Purple Cane does not have English breakfast tea and Chamomile tea which is also my favorite type of tea.

How accurate was the item description? 5/5
The description of the tea is so depth. They provide the useful information about the tea. Included –> history, data sheet and the best infusion of the tea.

How quickly did the seller send the item? 5/5
Free deliver to your doorstep with purchase RM45 and above. Order placed before 1pm –> they will process and dispatch on the same day. If your order placed after 1pm –> they will process and dispatch the next business day.

Make Every Morning More Productive

Hello readers,

I am very free now and then. My day is kind like mind-numbing and stress free at the moment (On holiday). Today topic will be “Make Every Morning More Productive” (article form savvysugar). This topic is kind like motivating me to start off my day with a fruitful morning routine. Here is some information to make your day a productive day. Please remember that getting out of it earlier means getting back into it sooner, so don’t linger on the bed for too long. I guess I really need to cultivate this habit. I use to have an unproductive morning. For example:

a) Flocking in front of the notebook every day in the morning for too long
b) Eat too much of chocolate everyday
c) Sleep late at night like an owl (insomnia)

Here are the tips given by the savvysugar. I cut out some of the information since I don’t find it is useful for me.

1) Prepare For the Morning the Night Before
Pack your lunch, set out your clothes, organize your to-do list and email, and put the keys and your purse in one place. When the alarm sounds you will be more likely to pop out of bed, shower, get dressed, and jump on the productivity train stress free.

2) Remember the Adages
The early bird does catch the worm. Try starting your day extra early.

3) Front Load Your To-Do List in the AM
Pack a power breakfast and power through the to-do list in the am.

4) Take an AM Break
Walk around the block three times. Grab coffee. Most importantly: Gab about your stress and brainstorm efficient fixes you can implement immediately.

5) Plan a Weekday AM Coffee Date With a Friend
Instead of filling your post work schedule with dinner dates, plan an early am coffee date with a friend. You will start the day sooner and waltz into the office caffeinated and cheery after a cheap friend date. You also won’t be stressed all day thinking about how you are going to be late for dinner and can focus on work.

Gmarket, Korea

Gmarket is one of the largest online Korea shopping that provides worldwide shipping. This is the place where I usually shop for Korean product.

Web: Gmarket

Here are some tips that you must be wary of it.

1) Use Google translation to check either the product (apparel/bags/accessories/beauty/electronics/others) that you choose is made in Korea or elsewhere.
2) You can get Korean beauty product such as Baviphat, TonyMoly, Laneige (high end skin care product) and others beauty products that you might not find it at Malaysia.
3) Compare the price of the same products

I guess that’s my tips for Gmarket online shopping. Enjoy your shopping!

Nine Emperor Gods Festival (九皇大帝)



Every year, Chinese (some) usually celebrate Nine Emperor Gods Festival. This year I went for a day parade. I’m so exhausted! Damn hot! But is fun since I can collect sweets (^.^) This is the only picture I have in my digital camera. I use lomo camera to capture this festival. Will process the film once I’m back to hometown.

Info (wikipedia):
The Nine Emperor Gods Festival is a nine-day Taoist celebration beginning on the eve of 9th lunar month of the Chinese calendar. The Nine Emperor Gods are the nine sons manifested by Father Emperor Zhou Yu Dou Fu Yuan Jun and Mother of the Big Dipper Dou Mu Yuan Jun who holds the Registrar of Life and Death.

The Nine Emperor Stars are:
Tan Lang Tai Xing Jun (貪狼太星君)
