Makeup is not a must, but an essential skill to women.  It boosts a lady's confidence, portraits a well-groom and professional image.  Makeup is as good as magic, transforms a girl to a woman, an ugly duckling into a swan, a beautiful girl into a goddess, for my case - 

An auntie into ...... a super young looking auntie, 有木有?  Heehee.....

Hoping to pick up some basic and daily makeup skills or pursue a career in makeup industry, you may look at Pro Academy.

Thor The Dark World

Remember not too long ago, Thor swept into our cinemas with his story of humility and strength, a story between realms and a heart-wrenching romance? That wasn’t the end of it.

Marvel’s "Thor: The Dark World" continues the big-screen adventures of Thor, the Mighty Avenger, as he battles to save Earth and all the Nine Realms from a shadowy enemy that predates the universe itself. 

In the aftermath of “Marvel’s Thor" and "Marvel’s The Avengers," Thor fights to restore order across the cosmos...but an ancient race led by the vengeful Malekith returns to plunge the universe back into darkness. 

Faced with an enemy that even Odin and Asgard cannot withstand, Thor must embark on a journey that will reunite him with Jane Foster but force him to sacrifice everything, to save us all.

Malekith and his army of dark elves will stop at nothing to wreak havoc and to continue to seek vengeance. This ancient race has to be completed.

Join Thor as he embarks on this epic battle that tests his willpower. It will be his most personal and perilous one yet. Don’t miss it.

Marvel’s Thor: The Dark World continues the battle in Singapore cinemas on October 31, 2013.

I had watched Thor just a week ago while I was travelling to Genting.  Ooooh...... LOVE IT!!

Those blue eyes......... his body........ impulsive charm wooohooohoooo......

Can't wait to watch the continuation from "Thor The Dark World"!

"If I had Thor's Mjolner for a day, what would you do with it?"

Seriously, what can I do with it?  Use it to knock out some sense from my naughty kids? lolxx...

My Journey on Blogging (Part 2)

Blogging life gotten slightly better as in I managed to find a few friends out of a bunch of bitches.

But as I am more into blogging, things got uglier and uglier......

Most people presumed that PR agencies or brands will look for bloggers with better stats to work with.   But nope, I found that they give opportunities to bloggers whom they have better "relationships" with even if nobody reads their blogs.  I have to stress that I have nothing against bloggers with lower stats, after all I was there too, I started from zero and worked all the way till today with a small pool of readers.

It's just that I feel, I deserve more recognition.  But I already came with terms that this is how things works in reality, and it will not change no matter how upset I feel.

For those who knows me personally, I am the most "chin cai" (easy) creature living on earth.  I am often punctual, I smile even if people treated me like transparent, I submit my assigned blog reviews within 10 days.   But at the end of the day, I was being "freezed" by some PR agencies.

Since this is the case, I really don't see why I should cling on and allow myself to be treated shabbily.  Now I seldom RSVP for events which I am sure I wouldn't get selected, even if I do at times, I don't block the dates in my schedule, other stuffs comes first.  Also not participating in blog contests.....

"Blog Contests" is also a beautiful name in disguise for "Blog for Free".  While the winners of every contests are familiar faces, the rest of the contestants who contributed didn't even get a "Thank you" from whoever and whatever organiser.  Prizes like air tickets, iphones, cameras are no longer attractive baits to me.  Even if the prize is a space trip to the moon also no use, cos' it's never meant to be at all.   Not trying to be boastful here, but frankly speaking it's much more easier to just swipe my credit card to get what I need.  Plus, I have got a life time sponsor - hubby dearest.

I know many of my fellow blogger friends are going "Wah..... you are going to offend a lot of people with this post ....."  No worries, me and my blog is "transparent" to those agencies.  So what if they reads this?  They can continue to "freeze" me for all I care.

Not making a sweeping statement, a few agencies are really very nice to me lah, where an invite is always sincere, and I am very grateful to them heehee......

Whatever it is, nothing beats $$

I would like to express my sincere and heart felt thanks to all my readers.  Exactly one year ago, my blog started out with less than 20 unique visitors daily, and today it's has more than 500.

Without you readers, my blog will be worthless, I mean what's the point of posting and posting when nobody 's reading?  Without you readers, I wouldn't be getting the above cheque also.  As childish as it may sound, but a few words of compliment or a comment was all it takes to sweep away all the unpleasantness I encounter.

My blog can go without sponsors, without being a pet of PR agencies, but will die without readers.  THANK YOU very very much my dear readers, thank you.  Please continue to read my blog, don't let it die, I'll continue to blog as long as you are reading.  Thank you again!

Disney Movie - The Lone Ranger

From the team that brought you “PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN”, now comes Disney/Jerry Bruckheimer Films’ “THE LONE RANGER”! 

Starring none other than JOHNNY DEPP, not a “savvy-ing” pirate this time but a Native American spiritual warrior, TONTO, who recounts the untold tales that transformed a man of the law into a legend of justice, JOHN REID aka LONE RANGER, enacted by ARMIE HAMMER.

Hold tight to your seats for a thrilling adventure infused with action and humor, in which the famed masked hero is brought to life through new eyes.  The action-packed film takes the audience on a runaway train of epic surprises and humorous friction as the two unlikely heroes must learn to work together and fight against greed and corruption.

“THE LONE RANGER” also stars Tom Wilkinson, William Fichtner, Barry Pepper, James Badge Dale, Ruth Wilson and Helena Bonham Carter, and is directed by Gore Verbinski and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and Gore Verbinski.

They are coming on 20 June 2013!!

This time you’ll meet even more friends of all shapes, colours and sizes from the monster world as we go back in time to their college days. In fact, we go back all the way to where it all began. If you ever wondered how Mike and Sulley first met, don’t miss Disney•Pixar’s “MONSTERS UNIVERSITY”! 

Look forward to the thrills and diversity of university life in this movie, from prestigious academic programs offered by various faculties such as the School of Scaring, to the myriad of sports, clubs and societies. 

Mike Wazowski’s (voice of Billy Crystal) lifelong dreams of becoming a Scarer are derailed during his first semester at Monsters University when he crosses paths with hotshot James P. Sullivan, “Sulley” (voice of John Goodman), and their out-of-control competitive spirit gets them both kicked out of the University’s elite Scare Program.

Here's Sulley and me!  Coincidently, I was dressed in the same color tone with this fury monster!

*nuffnang contest

Here comes the long-awaited blockbuster of the year – Marvel’s Iron Man 3, coming to Singapore cinemas on April 26 2013!

Marvel’s Iron Man 3 pits brash-but-brilliant industrialist Tony Stark/Iron Man against an enemy whose reach knows no bounds. When Stark finds his personal world destroyed at his enemy’s hands, he embarks on a harrowing quest to find those responsible. This journey, at every turn, will test his mettle. With his back against the wall, Stark is left to survive by his own devices, relying on his ingenuity and instincts to protect those closest to him. As he fights his way back, Stark discovers the answer to the question that has secretly haunted him: does the man make the suit or does the suit make the man?

Starring Robert Downey Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle, Guy Pearce, Rebecca Hall, Stephanie Szostak, James Badge Dale with Jon Favreau and Ben Kingsley, Iron Man 3 is directed by Shane Black from a screenplay by Drew Pearce & Shane Black and is based on Marvel’s iconic Super Hero Iron Man, who first appeared on the pages of “Tales of Suspense” in 1963 and had his solo comic book debut with “The Invincible Iron Man” in May of 1968.
