The thing I feared most, came true. 

The Spicy Faceoff

advertorial;

Looking at the banner above, I am not giving any brownie points to anyone for guessing what I am going to introduce to you today :P I mean its obvious that slender yellow M sign :D Everybody's favourite fast food joint, McDees!!!!!!!! 

The Spicy Face off. Face off between what, you ask. Fret not I am going to let you in on McDee's laaaaatest burger! If you are a fan of spicy food, definitely keep reading!

(slight disclaimer/apology here, pictures in this post are not as good because my dead G12 wasn't with me so I had to make do with my iP5 :()

Greeted by these upcoming releases too whilst waiting for the other social media personalities. Ultra yums! New shaker fries, citrus thai, think TOM YAM fries! & my favourite of that day, the Lychee Soda :D:D:D:D Madddd love!!

I am not going to be an asshole and make you guys read a whole lot of other stuff, I am going to cut to the chase and introduce their latest spicy contender!! 

FIERY CRACKER BLACK PEPPER FLAMER

I am literally salivating while typing the name of the new burger. Think peppery juicy whole chicken thigh deep fried, nestled between a special bun together with juicy red tomatoes and crisp lettuce, smothered in mayonnaise. 

Telling you that I am a huge fan of spicy food would be the understatement of the century. I FREAKING LOVE SPICY FOOD. EVERYTHING I EAT HAS TO BE SPICY, if its not spicy I can't be bothered to even touch it. As EVERY SINGAPOREAN knows, so far the only spicy burger in McDee's menu is the McSpicy. Which is already damn effing spicy. Its so weird. I can eat all the spicy food in BKK but it doesn't have any effect on my digestive and bowel system. Eat one Mcspicy, tomorrow you will see me in the toilet first thing in the morning, fo shizzle ma nizzle.

BUT I LIKE. Spicy then shiok~

ROFLMAO, I am SOOOOOOO SORRY this picture really doesn't do the burger any justice but I have only a pair of hands and one measly iP5 camera. This is the best my humble iP5 can do :( Paiseh.

BUT THE TASTE OH MY MAMA. 

Firstly, I got to tell you. Spicy-wise, McSpicy is still HANDS DOWN definitely more spicy. But taste-wise, OH MY MAMA THIS ONE IS 

Its like Tandoori chicken. And its super juicy. And the spiciness is on a totally different level with McSpicy. McSpicy is like one thousand chilli padis mashed together witht the chicken and send it to the frying machine. But this is like SO GODDAMN YUMMY. The pepper taste builds up in your mouth with every bite you take, in short, I feel it gets spicier as you eat it but it is the peppery kind of spicy. SO GOOD.

Wah serious, so good. In the words of those present that day, its the burger with a comfortable sort of spiciness. YOU HAZ GOTS TO TRY IT BRUH.

........

I am really sorry for this half fucked entry but I can't bear to upload anymore pictures that I have because its all crap. But you have to trust me on this. 

TRY THE FIERY CRACKER BLACK PEPPER FLAMER!!! They will be releasing it tomorrow (18 April 2013) so do go down to McDee's tomorrow okkkk!!!! Can check out their FB for more details!

"Who fell in love first?

Irina: I think I did. I’m such a sucker, and I was in denial for quite long. I didn’t wanna let him know. Why would I let a guy know about my true feelings when I’m not sure of his? What if he’s just fooling around right?

Jeremy: I never had a real relationship before so the idea of being in a relationship somehow scares me. I was at lost and didn’t know what to do with these feelings. It's like a whole new thing to me. I didn’t think I could withstand all the pressure, responsibilities, and commitments. Besides, I didn’t think I was ready, or in her league either. She’s smart, pretty, caring… so yeah.

Irina: Awww.... thank you for being so honest b. Just so you know, you’re doing a real good job right now, so don’t ever feel inadequate yeah. And hey, you’re not answering the question b! Who fell in love first? Do you really think it’s me? If it is, this is so embarrassing hahaha. I’m glad I didn’t confess then!!!

Jeremy: Yeah, it has to be you hahahaha. I’m never in-line with the ‘love’ thing you know. I was cunning, and I liked playing mind games. And, I did... to make you fall for me. But, I know it’s nothing like a game now. We are seriously in love, and we are happy together. 

\

How long did you guys dated?

Jeremy: For about 2 months? We knew each other for 4 months but it was kinda an one-off dating. Ups and downs were inevitable. Very often I didn’t know if I should carry on, for I never thought I could match up to her and be the man in her eyes.

Irina: The whole 4 months was pretty torturous for me cause I realized it’s kinda one-sided thing and I didn’t know it was just a game to him... No, wait, I sorta know cause I’ve friends reminding me how stupid I was everyday but still… I couldn’t let go and I had no idea why. Usually I’m pretty headstrong, if I turned around, I’ll never look back. But, unknowingly I have a soft spot for this dude.

Jeremy: Yeah, I did quite a few things that were pretty hurtful to her. I felt real sorry till today. Guess my charm and mindgame tricks were pretty solid huh hahaha. It was on-off cause I wasn't sure of my feelings and what I really wanted out of this. Otherwise, we would have progressed so much faster and got together earlier."

Nobody could put it in words as succinctly as her. Funny how their names are the same.

; you used to lie so close to me

Right from the start,

you were a thief, you stole my heart.

And I, your willing victim.

I let you see the parts of me, that weren't all that pretty;

And with every touch you fixed them.

Now you've been talking in your sleep,

Things you never say to me.

Tell me that you've had enough

Of our love, our love.

It's in the stars, it's been written in the scars on our hearts.

Oh tear ducts and rust,

I'll fix it for us.

We're collecting dust, but our love's enough.

We're no broken, just bent. &we can learn to love again.

Sham Adam @ Salon Vim

So if you've been following me on Instagram *coughs @jolenequek_ coughs*, you would have seen my Mcfly hair. Okay granted its not five colours but still ;) 

I am a very fickle minded person who likes to try many things. From many different people, I find it very hard to stick to one hair salon, or one nail salon, etc. Honestly, I like jumping between Vim & Essensuals Bugis (EB). I like EB for their crazy good treatments, & so I couldn't commit to one salon.

But one day, on a whim (surprise surprise), I set an appointment at the new Vim outlet at Bugis to "do something to my hair". Anything. I previously swore NEVER to do anything chemical to my hair EVER AGAIN because seriously after the whole dye-rebond-bleach-perm episode, I shudder to think about how pubichair-ish my hair became :/ So that's when you saw me chopped off my long locks last year, and snipped even more after a month. 

I managed to stay true to my resolution about not doing anything to my hair UNTIL I just couldn't stand the Roots. As much as I could do a typical self consolation and think "Oh its an ombre style" but no. It's too glaring. Damnit it was soooo obviously, for a lack of a better word, ugly! In pictures I look like one of those girls who couldn't afford getting a redye after my hair grew out /shudders. I took leave the next day after I called Vim and went down for a hair makeover.

My previous Stylist at Vim was Melvin, but he was on leave that day so I got a new Senior Stylist, Sham. I don't have a picture of him but you can't miss him at Vim, he's the coolio good looking Eurasian :D Frankly, I went in that day picturing myself exiting the salon with a royal blue head LOL, but I am unsure how my office would react so I decided not to. Told Sham I wanted something different, yet I don't wanna spoil my hair :'( And he delivered! I got my crazy colours and miraculously enough, I SWEAR I AM NOT LYING, the bleached portions ARE NOT EVEN DRY AT ALL. Say no to pubic hair on my head!! :D:D:D

I can haz blond hair too :P Strategically placed blond streaks made a lot of my friends go :O 

& a quick shot before I left the salon. I just love how vibrant the colours looked! :D

A better picture taken on the day itself..

& the day after! :D Palms up to the universe, I have NEVER loved my hair sooo much before. Walk along the streets also feel the wind (is that the correct direct translation for the chinese phrase? LOL) I wanted blue streaks only but Sham said he's gonna add a few purples in so that the colours could blend better and I just said, "Do whatever you want, I totally trust you" :D Did the cocktail treatment after and :') Hello gorgeous hair!

So the colours have obviously faded quite a bit now, mostly the ends, but you can still differentiate there is browns, blues and greens. Wait a minute, green?! HAHHAHAHHAHA, but I am still loving my hair! I love how well placed they are that whichever parting I wish to have, you are bound to see them colours :D

Ask anyone I am close to, they most definitely have heard me going on and on about how the next time I go Vim I am gonna get my head in hues of silver and blues and purples :D I really can't wait to go again!!! :D:D:D

oh and don't look for Sham, because I don't want you girls to overbook him until I can't get an appointment too! :P

Vanity Trove SG

sponsored.

Yayy! Finally got my paws down to edit this video :D

When C approached me and asked if I could share with my readers (or whoever are still here after my very long hiatus) about Vanity Trove, I was like why not?! I heard tons of good stuff about them and how for just a mere SGD$25.00 a month, you get a box of goodies sent to you :D After the first box arrived, I was so pleasantly surprised by how value for money it is since I get products from Khiel's and Phytomer, etc every month. & so began the anticipation every month for that pink box of awesomeness to arrive! ;)

You must be thinking, you must be crazy, why would I want to pay an additional amount of $25 every month to get miniature products right? Take it this way. Imagine you are a beauty junkie. You loveee experimenting with the up and coming beauty products in the market but don't forget, not all products, as much as they are highly raved, suits every skin type. It may be the holy grail for some, but for others (maybe you) it may just be something that costs a lot but does minimal. Not that the product isn't good, it just doesn't suit your skin. So can you imagine the amount of money you waste, if you spend good money on the full sized product, only for it to break you out? You won't ever use it again. Granted you won't always get what you want in every month's Trove, but hey that's part of the surprise ;)

So based on my experiences with the Troves I have received so far, I would say the concept behind it is superb! I get to try products which are expensive and I'd probably never intend to purchase lest I waste my money as mentioned above; I also get mind blown when products that are super cheap and I thought would never work because a) they are cheap b) and so they probably won't work because we can't have our cake and eat it. :D

Products not featured in the video but mentioned:

Belif's The True Cream Aqua Bomb

Khiel's Powerful Strength Line Reducing Concentrate

Hope I didn't miss anything out :D

*PS - I apologise for the crazy annoying crackling sound in the background. Evidently one should never place the fan too near whilst filming.

Just, never good enough for anything/one/where/how. I should just fck off and die.
