New Mall in town!

Today i went to the newly open mall in Bandar Perda , Bukit Mertajam. It is known as AEON Seberang Perai City or Jusco Bandar Perda. I seldom visit the mall across the island cos i knew the best mall in Penang already located on the island itself. Then i received an email bout this mall from a friend. It seems that this new mall is nothing lose to the Queensbay Mall, infact they have many restaurants which we don't have here.

The moment i step into the mall, i tot i was in Mid-Valley (KL) lower ground.... The participating brand are all similar to the one in Mid-Vally Megamall but Top Shop and Romp is missing though. And of cos it is not as big as Mid-Valley. From the outside its looks kinda of big but actually inside not very big only. Overall, i think this mall is great to hang out and gathering cos a lot of restaurant but shopping for me is so-so only la. I dun find any interesting shops but the clothes there are quite cheap lo. They have more accessories and footwear compare to fashion clothing. I am searching for something to wear to my friends wedding's dinner, and i found one dress at one shop. And the price is very reasonable.This dress make my trip worth. (From here maybe the dress doesn't look so chio lo... )

After shopping my friend Calynn get some donuts from Big Apple. I never try Big Apple's donuts before and not in a donuts' mood. After that we had our tea time in a restaurant named: Food & Tea.

I wanted to try the tea but i was afraid i will have sleepless night again. So i settled for dessert instead.

My Yin & Yang tong sui. Sorry the light is blue that why my tong sui look bluish.The flavor is Yam & Mango. The Yam one is awesome but the mango one is a bit weird lo... doesn't taste much like mango. But when you mixed the two together the taste is very good... But i still prefer the yam 1 lo. If order only the Yam one they served it with Yam ice-cream... drooling can't wait to try it next time.

Calynn oso ordered tong sui but hers is hot.
This is combination of water chestnut, jackfruit and fu chuk (bean curd sheets). This one ok oso la.

When me and Calynn look at food picture in the menu, it was so tempting... We hope that we can try everything... but cannot la...only two of us and its only tea time. So we jus ordered some finger food.Seafood roll. Recommended!

So, Food & Tea passed. I still have a few restaurant to try out- Black Canyon Restaurant , Che Go Korean BBQ and Splendid Cafe.... So cham! I so tham chiak dunno when only can slim down lei... nearly all my pants can't wear liao... ~>_<~

Just Another Shoppin' Day

Hubby is not free to fetch me to work...so today i took off. My sis oso o MC. During noon, sis said very boring and asked me wan go loitering in Queensbay or Gurney. Actually i got nothing to buy, jus wanna loiter around better than stay at home. So, she decide on Queensbay.

The other day i saw this in Cleo- magazine.Pink legging with black dress, huh....Previously i oso saw in the tv program " Ni Ren Wo Chui Da" that Pink legging was in the trend. I only got black legging. So, i plan to buy pink legging to match my black dress rather than match it with black legging.. I knew Momoe in QB sells different type and colour legging. So i went to Momoe but they dun have Pink legging but they have the over knee stocking..
When at lower-ground...i saw Jusco selling different type of CNY hamper. I seldom buy the ready-packed hamper. Usually will buy it loose and wrap it myself or sometimes didnt wrap oso jus use plastic bag. So i need, to get a hamper for my god mother. I already bought a tin of "kuih kapit" from my hubby's mummy. So, i told my sis i wanna get some can food for her. I remember my god mother like honey sea coconut. So, my sis bought 2 cans. Dunno wat else to buy...will get the rest later..

Later, i saw these candies.
The promoter told me, if buy rm 20 and above get the gift box. The gift box quite nice lo. Then later i decided to get this for the CAPD unit staff nurse. The CAPD staff nurse previously help me to apply for special privilege. My aunt had told me to send thank you card. But i did not send. The CAPD staff nurse Lim alwis scold me when she in bad mood...but still she is good oso la. So buy this small gift for them...
Later in Guardian Pharmacy, i saw this:

I call my sis to ask the cashier how much.. It cost rm 3.80.. My sis pay for it right away. I am not a water person. I don't drink a lot of water.. but this is oso good for me cos I am on dialysis...i cannot drink too much water. If not, i will get water retension on my body. One day i can only drink 1000ml. From young to now...nice water bottle will encourage me to drink more water. So whenever i buy mineral water i look for the packaging. I like nice packaging.

Had Yai Part 4- Shop till i drop

When i reached Had Yai on my first day, i saw the local girls had shiny highlights on their hair. Actually it was a shiny strips tied to the hair and it looks like shiny highlights. My aunt told me this was a popular trend among the local girls. I told my aunt where i can do it...i wan to do it. My aunt oso not sure, she say maybe i can try asking in the hair saloon.

I did my foot massage in a hair saloon, so i asked my food masseur where i can do this shiny highlights. Then she asked her colleague. Then she told me , they do not provide the service here but she can ask the person to come over. Then i asked her how much and long it will last. She said it cost 30 bath per strip and it will last around two weeks. So after the foot massage, we waited for a while but the person still had not come. And our Japanese buffet diner had started, so we did not wait for her anymore.

After the buffet, we went to Khun Shong night market. And i saw a stall selling the shiny strips. The shiny strips come in packet and it cost only 50 baht per pack. I asked the aunty how to tied it in our hair...but she don't understand what i am talking about. So i did not buy.

After Khun Shong, we went back to Central for the mini "yew char koey". When i passes Lee's Garden. I saw a stall on the street that provide the shiny highlights service. And it is only 20 bath per strip. But that time was late, and there are still many ppl waiting so i told her i will come back tomorrow.

While waiting for the mini " yew char koey". My aunt say maybe i can go back to tied my hair. So we ( me and sis) did.I was learning how she tied it. Cos when she tied for me, my sis say its very easy nia. Maybe we can buy a pack to tie ourselves. There so many colours. And they did not sell a pack with consist of all colours. Finally we decide on this rainbow colours.

Other than this hair trend. I think in the coming fashion trend will be dresses. Little dresses. It either you wear it as a dress or you may wear with legging, stockings , skinny jeans or shorts. I bought a few dresses. But i only buy those that are 100% cotton not those that are polyester cotton. As you know things are cheap in Had Yai but the quality especially polyester cotton, mostly will shrink after washing.

Shoes here are very cheap. Mostly not over 300 baht. I love shoes. Women love shoes. But budget tight so only 2 pairs.

I am a jacket girl as i always feel cold. The jackets in my closet kinda old, can only wear it in the house. So i need new jackets for office and cinema.
What else i bought?
Souvenirs for hubby

Not forgetting ..the embelishments for scrapbooking.

Same gang with Kopi Soh. She got her LeSport from petaling street, i got it from Had Yai. And oso a new casing for my camera.. ( i lost the old casing during the trip)
Stripe shorts and ultraman boxerAll-time favourite- Army pants
T-shirts for my lazy days.
And this....My purpose for this post is not to show off what i bought. I jus wanna show you guys i buy all these for less than RM 350. I can't buy so much for Rm 350 here. The most expensive piece is only 300 baht and the cheapest is only 50 bath.
Anyway, i save most of the clothing for Chinese New Year. When i come back i did my shopping in my aunt Ann's shop. She had a shop bhind Vistana Hotel. So, i can consider that i had finish shopping for my cny clothing. But if got extra money, sure will buy somemore la. Want to buy a black shoe, belt, leggings,................................( the list never end)

Camwhoring Mood Activated!

Today went to Queensbay Mall with my girlfriend- Calynn. It has been a long time since we last hang out together. Today activity is just shopping and drinking. Shopping! i haven't shop for quite sometimes. Walk for 3 hours till my feet was covered with blisters (wore wrong shoes that y).Didn't buy much today, cos everything was not on sales yet. I only bought a pair of wedges and some hair pins..
I bought this wedges from Nose. I saw a few pairs that i like...but money no enough and also no discount. Maybe wait for next month mega sales only buy ler.
Previously i bought lots of hair pins...my friend said i can open a stall to sell pins adi. But those pins i bought like ages ago... and they are not in style anymore. So bought this from Vince and Co. Previously i like to shop in Maggie T and Chameleon for pins but nowadays prefer Vince and Co.

After shopping, went to Coffee Bean for a drink. Also haven't been to Coffee Bean for so quite sometimes cos economy no good can only afford to go Old Town..hehe

Back home, was in the mood for camwhoring. So took a few pics with my bedtime buddies..
