Painted Skin: The Resurrection / 畫皮II



I won a pair of tickets to PAINTED SKIN: THE RESURRECTION Preview Screening at The Cathay from Incinemas.sg.

I was excited when I know this movie is coming out because I caught the 1st series and I like it.
This 2nd series is good too.
Even though the main casts (Vicky Zhao, Zhou Xun, Chen Kun) remains the same, there’s no link between the 2 stories except that Zhou Xun states that she gave up her power to save the people in 1st series and being punished.
So this story in 2nd series happened 500 years later after the 1st series.

Zhou Xun acting as Xiao Wei doesn’t seem like a bad demon this time.
She just wanted a person who is willingly to give her the heart in order to get a taste of human life.

The CGI effects at some of the scenes are really good.
The movie ended decently.
It doesn’t seem like they will come out the 3rd series.
If they do, I think they will change the cast and maybe a very different storyline.

Overall, I recommend you to watch this movie. :)

Lastly, thanks Incinemas.sg for the movie tickets.

Rainbow Eyeshadow





I did an inspired rainbow eyeshadow makeup from Michelle Phan video below.
I think I a quite a good job just that the color is not very strong in the photos.
Love the colors on my eyes~




Dap the yellow color in the centre first.
Dap the blue color in the inner corner of the eyes.
Use a brush and brush it on the outer corner of the eyes and the crease.
Use the pencil liner to draw the inner waterline.


In Michelle Phan's Video, she uses a blue eyeliner to draw the lower eyelid.
I didnt have a blue eyeliner so I used this Majolica Majorca Jeweling Pencil Eyeliner BE208.


This is how it looks at the end of the day. :)

Some #camho shots before I end this post.
Have fun~

Taichung; Taiwan 2012 --- Feng Jia Night Market 逢甲夜市

Hello!
I am finally going to blog about my April Taiwan Trip.
Trip dated from 14 April 2013 to 20 April 2013.
I know I've been really lazy.
Kept procrastinating on blogging about this trip.
Anyway, this trip gonna be splitting into few parts.
I am not going to blog everything in one long entry.
I think you will probably just 'X' off my page. HAHA!
Well, I will also try giving some tips and my point of view about visiting Taiwan.
I think I am quite pro already since I've been there 4 times.

So its my first time in Taichung.
I decided to explore other part of Taiwan instead of the usual Taipei and I was really excited to go there.
From Taoyuan airport, you can either take bus down there or you can take Ubus to the High Speed Railway (HSR) then take the HSR to Taichung.
It is actually more expensive this way which I took.
Ubus to HSR cost NT30 and Taoyuan station to Taichung cost NT520.
Total of NT550 (approx SGD$25).
It takes about 1hr to 1hr30mins to reach there.
Yes, i took the more expensive way but should be the fastest way.
I think by taking the bus straight to Taichung is cheaper but time taken should be longer.
I guess it depends on individual if you wan to save money or you want to save time.
Here's the link for Buses to Taichung - http://www.taoyuan-airport.com/english/Publish.jsp?cnid=100152

When you reached Taichung railway station, you can take a free shutter bus to the Feng jia area.
This free shuttle bus only apply if you take the HSR if I am not wrong.?
You can check with the information counter.

So my family and I stayed at Le Parker hotel.
The hotel is quite deserted, we cannot locate the place until we asked someone for help.
It is actually behind the alley near the ABC mall.
Beacon Hotel is much more easier to locate as it is just at one of the street in Feng Jia.
However, we couldn't booked the hotel as it was full already.

Even though Le Parker is difficult to locate but my family and I still enjoy our stay there!
The receptionist are very helpful, even the cleaners are really friendly to us.
The interior designs are pretty too!











After putting our luggages and out we went to explore the Feng Jia Night Market and also grabbed some food for our hungry stomach.


As claim, Feng Jia Night Market (逢甲夜市) is one of the largest night market in Taiwan and most popular among the Taichung people.
There are many many good food and fashion stores there!
During the night time, the crowd will be more.
Actually this happens to all night market in Taiwan.
Taiwanese seems like a night owl. Haha..
I really like the night markets in Taiwan!
Full of yummy food and many things to see/ shop.!


This stall has a very long queue so my mum decided to try this.
In Taipei, I also saw this but I don like to eat intestine so BF and I didnt try it at all.


Me and Sis while waiting for mum to buy her food.


1 hand holding HP, 1 hand holding camera.
I am a busy woman. Hahaha..
Actually I kept taking the photo of the food to tempt BF who was in Singapore. :p




This is what I bought for myself.
I saw this store in 你猜 which Jacky Wu intro so I wanna try.
Its like Lok Lok in malaysia.
1 stick for NT10 (approx SGD$0.40). Mad cheap!
They have a lot of varieties for you to choose as you can see from the photo above.


It was nice and very full after eating it.
I think we bought 10 sticks.


熊手包 or we call it 熊掌汉堡 (Bear's paw burger)
Wanted to try this the most when I saw it on Jacky Wu 你猜.
BF was very envy of me. :D




1st, you choose the sauce.
2nd, you choose the meat patty.
3rd, you choose the burger.
For us we choose the mushroom sauce with chicken patty and milk burger.


Isnt the burger look cute?
It taste good too!
The chicken patty is so crispy and the burger has the milk taste/smell which I like!
Must try when you go Taichung!
Aww.. I am craving for this now!!


Inside of the burger.




My sis also look cute here. Haha..


Some cafe.
I see that this look cute so I took a photo of it. :)

I found KOI cafe and GongCha in Taichung.
I only manage to tried Gongcha.
And they have ice blended Mocha which SG doesnt have it!









I think their menu has more choices.
Our BBT in Singapore has no more ice blended already.
For a hot country like ours, they should have ice blended for us to drink in order to chill.


We randomly walked about the place and found PGmall!
So happy that we went in to check out.
In case you don't know, many people organize PGmall sprees online.
They sell very pretty bags.
Each of us bought a bag and I really love the one I got!
Very korean style, I like. :D


Pet shop.
I always will go and take a look at their pets in the pet shop.
The puppies and kittens usually are really small and cute one!


Here's one example of 2 cute puppies. ^~^


Lots of fashion stores like this.
Shop until you drop.
Really too many stores and always look out for those which states 2 for NT100, something like that.
A lot of cheap and good treasures you can find.


A whole stretch of food stores.


Scallops with lots of flavours.
Long queues for this.
They have numbering queue order.


懒人虾
For those who lazy to peel prawn shells.
These you can eat the whole prawns with the shells!
But i didnt like to eat it with the shells.
I insist in peeling the shells away. HAHA.


Feng Jia University is near the night market!
The students having good life.
After school can just go to the night market to eat, shop and play.









Alrite, I was just randomly inserting our photos in it..
Thats all for this post about Feng Jia Night Market.
I have 3 more posts for 3 different attractions in Taichung to share with you.
Took too many pretty photos there so I gonna split it into 3 posts. LOL!
Do look out for it soon. Till then.

Fallen Sick

Is it the season of people falling sick?
The weather nowadays is seriously crazy!
Too hot already and it hasn't been raining.
The grass are drying up too.

I started falling sick on Tuesday.
Actually is just minor sorethroat and flu.
I consumed the medicines that the doctor gave me.
However, from a minor sickness, it worsen day by day. D;
Friday, my voice changed till today.
And I lose my voice when I woke up from my sleep.

Ok, I just got to blame myself for eating fried food due to my sickness.
However, I feel that my sorethroat is better.
I guess its just my flu that make it like this.

Anyway, I hope those who went out with me past few days don't get my sickness ok. :(
If not, I'll feel guilty.
I hope I get well soon as I still wanna sing song, eat yummy food. :)

Recently watched Movie Review

I have been catching some new movies lately but I didnt really wrote any reviews on it.
So here I am sharing my views on the movies that I've recently watched.

First Time 第一次


This is a romantic and touching movie.
Some of the parts can makes you go 'awwww..'
Guys who adore Angelababy will drool throughout the show.
Girls who adore Mark Chao will drool too. Haha..
I don't know why some view of Angelababy doesn't look pretty in the movie?
Anyway, this movie is not bad because there's a twist in the middle.

Snow White And The Huntsman


Watching this show is like watching a combination of Thor and Twilight.
When I see Kristen Stewart, it makes me think of her as Bella.
Her expression and all in this movie is almost the same as Bella.
Chris Hemsworth is also very much like Thor in the show.
This story is very different from the orignial Snow white.
As compared to Mirror Mirror that I watched previously, this is more action than fairytale story.

Pirana 3DD


I watch this show online and it should be the uncensored version.
Not sure about the threatre version.
I'm sure MDA will censored a lot of it because of the nudity and gore scenes.
Like the previous Pirana 3D movie, the flesh eating fish still give us the intense and exciting feeling while watching the show.
However, towards the end some part are quite lame and super gore.
I don't understand why they wanted to make the show that way.

Sadako 3D


It's sad to say that this movie is the worst Japanese horror movie that I've watched. D;
I still prefer the older version of The Ring.
This movie not scary at all seriously, I was there giggling and laughing at some of the lamest scenes.
Really *facepalm*.
I thot the trailer was nice but its so disappointing after watching it.
Sigh~
