Saw this while browsing through the Etsy articles. Made me chuckle. I hope you will too! :)

Visit to the HortPark

HortPark or also known as the Horticulture Park is Southeast Asia's first one-stop gardening and lifestyle hub. This is an additional to the many parks we have in Singapore.

My hubby took me there for a nice stroll and beca
use he is a fan of gardening, we decided to check it out. I must say the first impression at the carpark and entrance of the park was amazing as there were so many variety of flowers and there is even a pond with lots of fishes.. So pretty & cute.

We checked out the Thai restaurant for lunch.. I must say it is quite expensive :( I should have walked a bit further to have lunch at the cafe *shucks* The view just outside the restaurant was amazing.. But what took my breath away are these beautiful flowers that I took while taking my stroll at the park.

On the downside, it started to pour shortly after our walk and we also f
ound that there are some areas where the plants are not well taken care of. As compared to the Botanical Gardens, the maintenance at the HortPark was not up to par. There are certain areas and trails that were "childish" and seems to be a playground for kids instead of educational and well maintained for adults..

Nevertheless, here are some of my pictures!

Etsy Finds - I am included again!!


I am so so honored again to be included in the Etsy Finds this weekend! The topic this weekend deals is Jewelry Fit for Spring. I hope this will give my shop some boost like the last time :D *fingers crossed*

My little owl was featured this time round. It's the last piece that I have in my shop. I managed to find these babies during one of my travels. I love it because it moves with little flapping wings :) It's really hard to find sterling silver charms locally especially unique ones. Owls have been very popular these months or even last year... I am not sure why.. but I have seen quite a number of listing on owls. They appear on t-shirts, jewelry, pouches, everything and anything....

Do you loves owls? Anyway, while typing up this post, I found out that my owl is SOLD! :) Hurray.. Really made my day! I hope everyone have a great weekend...

Oops.. did I mention that I am away next week? I am off to Tokyo for work again.. this time it's for 4 days.. :) Hopefully it's more fun this time round as I have switched to a hotel that is nearer to the train station. Hopefully I get to do more exploring than work as compared to the last time :) Will share photos when I am back!

Rebonded My Hair!


Aww.. It's been about a week since I last put up a post.. It's been a tough week although I did take Friday off to go to my hairdresser. I badly need a haircut. I have been keeping my hair long for the wedding but since then I have not gotten a trim in a while.

Anyways, I was a Jon's on Friday and I decided to try something new.. So I rebonded my hair! Jon was a bit skeptical at first as he knew that I love curls & waves more than the boring straight hair especially given that I have natural curls. However, to do a ceramic perm / normal perm would require some work maintaining them... which is absolutely not for me as I am a super low maintenance person (aka lazy) when it comes to hair. Thus it is a no-no for me. With rebonding, it basically do not need to go the extra mile of maintaining it! *Hurray*.. so that's what I picked.

The results were great! I think everyone in the salon thought I look younger.. keke.. My hubby thought I looked like a schoolgirl again although my size gave it away.. lol! But having straight hair does make one look younger, don't you think? Well, the most amazing thing is that my hair doesn't look like a mess in the morning and it's super easy to maintain.. I am so glad that I did it! Not sure why it took me such a long time to try it...

Have you rebonded your hair? Do you think it makes you look younger!? For now, I love my look, ... ask me again in 6 months time, maybe I am back to curls again.. lol! :)
