Healthy Instant Noodle?

This is just a stupid quick filler post :3

My mom sent me this instant noodles, and I thought it was rather a unique one.

Now, my mom is quite health concious, so she cut out flavor enhancer (MSG, Vetsin, etc) and anything "instant" (which means contains lots of preservative agent) most of the time. So, with that being said, I was actually surprised she sent me this instant noodles.

No, this instant noodle is still not healthy because they probably still contains preservative, MSG and stuffs. This is just a tad bit heathier.

The condiment inside is quite different, usually the seasong is liquid, but this one has weird gel-like texture --".

And and, what really distinct is, the noodle is freakin' GREEN.

I've seen green noodles around, but not green instant noodles.

The taste was quite good, not as good as Indomie, of course :p

Worth a try though.

Okay, bye xoxo~

2 More Days to Go...

So, like I said in the last entry, I'm in the middle of mid-exam, thus the filler posts that I actually wrote in early november and just schedule it (I still have one more :p).

But, It's only 2 days left now and I'm super excited :D

I'll have a video up in early december <3

Till then, take care xoxo

Yes, I'm a sucker for cute packaging

It's pouring rain right now with some pretty big thunder and I'm craving for a piping hot cocoa but too lazy to go downstairs and make it lol.

Oh, and my modem is very slow because of the rain (it's still as fast as my old modem at it's best though), but I looove rain -minus the thunder-. The thought of getting all bundled up and cozy and sipping a cup of nice hot cocoa while reading a book. Hmm, that's the dream ♥

But I can't really do that because I'm currently in the middle of mid exam. Yeah, I'm still blogging though. That is so typical me, always want to blog when I have something more important to do and decide don't want to blog when I literally have zero thing to do.


Okay, enough rambling and let's cut to the chase (I feel like in one those action movie where I'm being all fierce and cool every time I use that phrase. I know, I'm lame.).

Moving on.


You know what?I'm going to make me some hot cocoa right now and watch friends and continue this entry later or tomorrow. xoxo

-------------------------------------------------
/*edit*/

I finished my hot cocoa, watched an episode of friends, read blogs, reviewed my calculus II a bit and now I'm going to continue this entry :)

So the other day I went for some grocery shopping and other stuffs.

And did I mention that grocery shopping is my most favorite kind of shopping?? Yes, it is. I'm getting all excited every time I go for grocery shopping and I can spend hours in a supermarket just looking through all the products (again, I know, I'm lame. Get over it.).

As I was paying at the cashier, I realized that 90% of things that I bought, I bought that particular brand because I think the packaging is, well, for lack of a more sophisticated word, cute.

I know, I bought things because the packaging is cute. No, not the actual thing in it -which will make more sense, I guess?-, but the packaging. Even I, judge myself and expect something more.


Let's go over the damage control :

1) Dua Belibis Ketchup - because it has a freakin' mickey slapped on the bottle. I usually buy the Del Monte one, but this one has mickey!! How adorable is that??!! At the cashier, the employee even thought that it was a shampoo bottle.

2) Kotex Sanitary Pad - tmi alert. I've never leaned to any particular brand for this category before, but I don't think I've ever tried Kotex. So, yeah, the packaging is all cute and nice, but when I open it at home, it has purple hearts print on the pad (I was gonna post the picture of it too, but then it will be too tmi)!! Okay, so this one, I actually bought it because of the thing in it too! But then again, I think to myself, WHY on earth would I need a pad with purple heart prints on it???!!! Yes, I just post my sanitary pad for the whole world to see. Good job me *pat own head*.

3) Vivelle Hello Kitty Hand Wash - this one is kinda impulse buy because it wasn't on the list, but I was planning to get some hand wash at some point -because I cannot keep using shampoo as hand wash-, so it wasn't so bad getting it after all. Plus, you know, it has hello kitty on it :p.

4) Cussons Wet Wipes - by any means, I do not need another pack of wet wipes for at least a half of year. I've stocked up mine with the one from carrefour (another damage because of hello kitty and keropi packaging -___-"). But this one is so cheap and it is strawberry-scented and melon-scented, so I thought, you know what, you'll always need wet wipes and it practically can keep for a very long period of time, why not stock up some more? *bang head on the wall* 

5) Scanpan Santoku Knife (& knife sharpener) - why? because it's purple. My favourite color. Even right now I'm trying to make my bedroom into some kind of place where barney has been puked all over it. But in my defense, it was a good deal. If I buy the knife(cost 120k idr), I get the sharpener(cost 150k idr) for free. And I've been trying to find a knife sharpener anyway. Of course if I buy just any sharpener it would cost a LOT less than 120k idr, but the knife is actually really good. I love it and I can't wait to cook more with it. They said that this brand is the one who sponsored Masterchef Aussie.

6)Scotch Glue Stick - It's purple. Purple glue stick. I officially love 3M ♥♥♥

I'm done with the damage control. See? See? I can get so caught up when I do grocery shopping it becomes dangerous (okay, ridiculous might be the right word for it).

I'm going to buy ground beef tomorrow for spaghetti bolognese, let's hope I don't get all cray cray over packaging again.

Okay, bye xoxo

Breakfast Bruschetta

I made this a couple weeks ago, looked quite nice, right? lol *self-praise*

It was scrambled eggs on top of toasted garlic-buttered baguette. Tasted okay :p

I seriously don't know what else to write --"a, so I'll just stop here.

have a nice day xoxo

Sweet Little Candlelight

Nope, it's not as romantic as it sounds from the title lol.

A couple weeks ago, the power went out, so we had a blackout. 

I was cooking calamari rings with my bf when it became pitch dark, so I had to cook with the light from my phone -___-".

Anyhoo, it was still dark when I finished cooking, so I lit up my Yankee's Machintosh as a light. Technically, it WAS a "candlelit" dinner, yes?lol.

We spent the entire blackout time eating while watching Friends.

It was quite sweet, relaxing, and nice :)

Revlon Haul

I went to SMS the other day to buy my friend a gift but ended up bought this nail polishes for myself *insert face palm* (It's okay, I still bought the gift lol).

From left to right : Peach Smoothie, Mistletoe, Cloud

I think I've said this before, but normally I won't buy Revlon Top Speed because the price is almost twice the regular one and they don't dry that fast either (despite the pretty colors).

But the Cloud was on sale, together with the Peach Smoothie. I've been on the hunt for Peach Smoothie too, so I bought those 2.

While I was waiting for my receipt, I looked around and saw Mistletoe and immediately fell in love with it. I haven't swatched it yet, but it looked so pretty from the bottle and Christmas is almost here, so I thought it suit the occasion. But, in short, yes, it was an impulse buy. *double face palm*

Anyhoo, expect reviews of these babies soon <3

♥ October 2012 Favourites ♥

Hi loves!!!

In this post, I just want to share things I discovered and have been loving in month of October.

Scented Candles

I've been wanting to try scented candles since a long long time ago, but they were so damn expensive. Anyway, I decided to bought Yankee's Midsummer Night and Candle-lite's Fresh Melon Slice last month and I fell in LOVE!!

I became obsessed with scented candles wtf and they're downright bad for my wallet -___-".

Nevertheless, when I almost burned out my candles, I went ahead and bought candles again, this time in bigger jar, Yankee's Macintosh (10% off) and Candle-lite's Ocean Blue Mist (20% off). And they smelled soooo good!! I've been saving these 2 candles 'cos I'm not planning to buy anymore candle anytime soon.

The Body Shop - Spa Wisdom Morocco Orange Blossom Finishing Mist

Okay, this is purely a coincidental buy. TBS had a sale where you buy 2 products for only a price of 1 product or something like that. And there 3 types of products for this sale, 2 body lotion and 1 body mist. 

I bought the lemon body lotion (which is the product I was initially so excited for) and this body mist, just because I didn't like the other body lotion. 

I really wasn't expecting to like this body mist so much 'cos I don't really like the smell of their Spa Wisdom Morocco line products. BUT!! This finishing mist smelled so fresh, citrusy and light. For uni, I don't feel like wearing eau de perfume that has "heavier" smell, so this body mist is perfect! Plus, I got it on sale lol.

Infact, this has been my go to product everytime I go to uni for the last month (until now) and the lemon body lotion, which is the product I really wanted initially, I haven't really used. I think I've only used it like once or twice.

Lauren Conrad's L.A. Candy

I haven't finished reading it yet (p.200ish now), but I'm loving it so far. It's easy to read and quite entertaining. I bring this book with me everytime I go and know I'll have some times to kill.


That's all the things I've been loving for the October <3

• Yankee's Candle - Midsummer Night
