Ok, now I shall reveal...
The reason why I wrote a post on Our Idiot Brother (post below) is because.............................
I wanted to win the double passes to attend the screening and guess what????
I won the double passes and they are for Gold class tickets!!! Wheeeeee~~~~
Nuffnang Australia chooses lucky 17 bloggers from Melbourne and other lucky 17 bloggers from Sydney to attend the screening at chosen cinemas and I was one of the 17 Nuffnang-registered blogger to write a post and submit the entry to them so I won!!!! Yay!!!! Congratulations to myself and yes, I am going to pick someone to come along with me and receive complementary beverages and pop corns!!! I am absolutely delighted!
Anyway, I think that's it for now, been so busy doing so many things, work and other work, hence why I haven't been blogging anything interesting with photos lately... Komenasaiiiiiiiii!!!!
I am leaving to attend my sister's wedding in Malaysia this March, so will write a long arse post about it when I come back! So please be patient with me till then! xxxxxxxxxxx

Our Idiot Brother
Everyone has their own love-hate relationships with their siblings, who doesn't????
I remember I used to hate my sister for picking on me all the time and showed her angelic face to my parents every time she did something wrong and GOT AWAY WITH IT while I was being punished for it!!
Oh well, old sweet memories but no matter how annoying she could be sometimes.. I love her to bits still and she is getting married this March AND I am flying over to Malaysia to attend her wedding ceremony with a friend!! YAY!!!!!
Anyway, coming up this March is a new comedy movie starred by Paul Rudd (if you have watched Role Model) then you know this guy! So Ned Rochlin, namely Paul Rudd, got arrested for pot possession by a police (still with his uniform!! How dumb could he be?? It's a movie anyway, as long as it could make us laugh our ass off, it IS supposed to be dumb!). So he served for a little bit in the jail and when he got out, he has nowhere to go, hence he turns to his family and as you might guess, they are not very excited to see him in every way. Well, sure his family loves him but they just don't think he behaves in accordance to how an adult male of his age would behave. So, how is his three sisters going to deal with him?? The sisters are starred by Elizabeth Banks, Zooey Deschanel, and Emily Mortimer. Did I also mention that he got kicked out by his "before-went-to-jail-lived-in-girlfriend" after his release from the prison? On top of that, he lost the custody of their dog, "Willie Nelson" to his girlfriend, so he is going to fight back to his right of custody for the dog, but how?????
The movie's official release date in Melbourne will be on the 13th of March 2012 while in Sydney it is screening on the 14th of March 2012. The DVD and Blu Ray versions are also releasing on the 15th of March 2012.
Here's the trailer for the movie and let's hope we will all enjoy it!

Beauty Regime
As I am getting older or I would prefer to say (more mature), excuse me... I am not THAT old yet...I know most people would guess I am roughly 25 years of age but I am younger than that!!!! Ahem*
I realized that yes, girls look prettier with make-up on and it helps cover all the imperfection that we don't like. However, lately I start thinking.. Rather than covering all the imperfection, it is much better to prevent or improve our skin tone and texture. Putting make-up for such a long period of time will harm our skin anyhow whether or not you are using THE best make-up brand! You don't want to only like yourself when you have make-up on, you want to like yourself and feel confident even without make-up! After all, your husband or future husband is going to see you without make-up, hence no way you can hide forever!
I discover that taking care of your skin as soon as possible is a much better option in terms of long-term consequence than spending ages on putting make-up. Starting from washing your face at least twice daily (well I only wash my face twice daily in order for the skin to be hydrated enough and not to strip off the oil by washing my face too many times because remember! Your natural oil in your face helps hydrate your face, hence it is naturally moisturized from the inside). Then, you wipe your face with a toner of your choice with cotton pad to further cleanse your face and even out your skin tone. Next, you put on moisturizer to hydrate your skin while you are indoor, especially in Australia, the air is naturally dry hence you need a lot of moisturizer! Don't forget for your body needs moisturizer too!
Lastly, we need to scrub our face at least once a week to scrub off the dead skin we have collected over time and no, it doesn't just peel off by itself when you wash and dry your face with a towel (I would dumbly think so O.o ~~~). Trust me, your skin tone will be much brighter once you do scrubbing once a week. Who wants to collect dead skin overtime and darken their skin tone? I don't and don't worry, if you are tanned, I don't think you will turn fair after just one scrubbing once a week ;p
With this routine, not only you will spend less time covering your face with 5 different foundations and concealers, but you don't need anti-ageing product that early! Besides, I don't think anti-ageing products work anyway.. Everything depends on our own effort and although different products work out differently for different people, it is our own responsibility to find what suits us the best!
Anyway, below are the products that I will personally recommend for anyone looking to change their cleanser, moisturizer, etc. Note: most probably not suitable for people with allergic reaction towards cosmetic products! You might as well stick to the same products!
Beginning with facial cleanser and toner, I have always been using L'Occitane and they work really well on my skin. Not only it controls the level of oil on my skin, it also softens my skin texture. Use them twice daily.
Use a cotton pad to wipe the toner all over your face except the eyes area evenly.
In case you can't read the details it is A L'HUILE ESSENTIELLE ET EAU D'ANGELIQUE BIO by L'Occitane. Spread it evenly on your face as well, apparently you can apply it with a cotton pad too!
TADA.....
As for body wash, I was recently given Aesop body range by a friend and they are awesome!! However, some people might not enjoy a leafy smell, though it actually makes my room smells nice!
And a matching body balm, it massages deeply into your skin and smoothens your skin as well!
Finally, I need to apply skin brightener for the scar I got from falling and hit by a car months ago!I tried to use BIO oil but to no avail and this cream works wonder so far as it starts fading the scar color (as in it is getting brighter). Although it is not perfect, however my scar has faded (rather slowly) :( Treat your scar urgently or else you will be like me! Unfortunately, this cream is not available in Australia, not sure else where but I got this back at home and I know it is available in Malaysia at a very affordable price!
Apply a very small amount of the gel on damp face and using a circular motion, start massaging the face evenly and you will feel something peeling off from your skin, it is the actual dead skin! This scrubbing gel is no like other gels where there are rough black/white (sand-like) particle in them. This one is pure gel and smells like honey too! Well, since it IS made from honey and other organic material. Wash your face again after scrubbing your face for about 30 seconds. Remember, even though it gives you nice clean feeling on your face, you can only use this once a week or your skin will be too dry!
DARE TO BARE IT ALL!!! Well my face I mean obviously!! What are you thinking???
Finished with curl locks (:
Oh by the way, the scrubbing gel is available in Australia only at the moment (I think???) O.o
