fighting fats. fats fighting.

Advertorial:

So it's 2am right now...and i think today has been extremely fruitful. Had a really ridiculous and yet happy dream, woke up early at 9.30 am to go with the parents for breakie. (9.30am in my weekend context is early ok!) haha.

I got to pick the place for brunch cause 难得 i wake up early if theres nothing scheduled on you know (for those who are judging me already. go away -.- haha) Guess where did i pick? Some fancy restaurant? Nuuu. I'm a pretty local kid. I like fancy brunches but they really cost quite a big sometimes, and everyone knows i love mac breakies but no, it's not that too.

Today i went with my inner local kid. I chose to eat at those neighbourhood kopitiam's, those big ones next to the wet markets. Those are the best!! :D They have everything! And my favourite Asian breakfast stuff...like you know....CAI TAO KUEH!!! omm nooms.

Who doesn't love carrot cake? i'm sure everyone likes it. Only a matter of black or white right? :P

And a whole load more food after that which i was greedily gobbling down so no photos, i'm not really a 'food photo' extraordinaire after all. 

On the way home i was browsing through fb and saw THIS link *gives horror face* It was an article talking about how unhealthy Singapore hawker breakfast is, great. What a bummer. Thanks for spoiling the mood men's health magazine. I would have love not to know really. 

Ok that gave me a little bit more motivation to give those squishy fats a run for their money! So i worked out quite a bit cleaning up my hammies cages and all...and went for a swim after that. Yesh exercise to work away those biong biong fats. Though i wonder if i even manage to clear 1/6 of what i've eaten. *exasperation* *throws hands in the air in despair* i want to eat what i want in peace without worrying and having a care in the world of how to get rid of those unwanted stuff afterwards. (okok lazy lah. don't wanna exercise. heh XP don't judge, it happens sometimes especially to busy people who have really no time! i understand you. and even if you have time you just wanna enjoy life and chill right. i get you i get you.)

Previously i remembered ever chatting with mum while watching those variety shows about losing weight, think it was an American one showing those stars and people losing weight through liposuction. She say it would be pretty awesome huh, but me being the scaredy cat for such unnecessary (up to personal opinion ; i'm entitled to mine ok) invasive method. Though i would have to admit the results sure sounded tempting and all...But I DO NOT encourage normal people who are not obese to go do it. Firstly, so rich ah!! Secondly, really, you are NOT as fat as you think. And, there are lotsa risks involved. 

But for those who are reading this and really need it (like for real one, like me? boohoo. ) i recently got to know of this new non invasive non surgical method. Liposonix- fat reduction treatment that uses high-intensity focused ultrasound energy (HIFU) to permanently destroy fat cells. The idea of anything not being poked into me and getting the same effects sounds great to me if you ask me!

When you know they say it sounds too good to be true...what do you do? Do your homework! I'm going to share my readings from their information brochure for you to know more! Your welcome. 

"How does it work? 

The Liposonix treatment uses high-intensity focused ultrasound energy. It is the same energy source as diagnostic ultrasound, but it is designed to very precisely target specific areas with high energy to destroy fat cells.

How long is the treatment? 

Typically a Liposonix treatment of the abdomen and flanks is completed in about one hour. This may vary depending on the treatment area and your specific needs.

How many treatments will I need? 

The fat is permanently destroyed in just a single treatment.

Who can benefit from a Liposonix treatment? 

The Liposonix treatment is ideal for active, healthy individuals who have at least 1 inch or 2.5 cm of fat to lose in their abdomen or flanks. It is non-invasive, so it is a great solution if you have stubborn fat but don’t want to have surgery. "(So if you are the skinny kind of person and think you are fat. Its NOT for you. you aren't fat anyway, don't put that thought in your head. Go live beautifully and healthily yo!)  But definitely sounds like me, how? I exercise also still have more than that number, sponsor me please Liposonix? lol. Xp

And so this was the machine i was looking through their articles and materials. When i saw it i couldn't quite put my finger as to why it looked familiar till a little while later...heh. XD

So these are the little nuggets of information i pulled out...if you have more queries, check them out at their website HERE. It would definitely be clearer and make more sense :)

Here's to us saying Byebye Sayonara to fats one way or another!

(of course no matter what method you may choose to use, i would still say, keep a healthy lifestyle.)

We don't want to look at short term goals and effects, we want to keep them that way!

4G and me

I admit it. I'm a total social media junkie. My whole world nowadays revolve around it. Hell even my work depends on it!

And you...yes you reading this post! I bet you are too! 

Don't get me wrong...I still really enjoy heart to heart chats with friends and close ones aka hth chats. Lol. I never caught on what HTH means until much later. And I love more than anything else hand written letters, friends who know me know the thrill I get when receiving handwritten stuff. But still I love everything online too. 

Irony? Quite the opposite I think! It just means I like words and communication! And expressionism. ( ah. Spoken like a true artists. Ahem) My blog is like what, 5 years old? Shows my commitment. LOL.

And that being said since I am out almost 24/7 almost! I really really appreciate being able to use my social media to connect to the world on the go! This means that even on mrts I can enjoy being uninterrupted and of course....using this free time to make the best out of it! 

Apart from connecting with the world and close ones...I look for inspiration! And comfort...where else but from my favourite YouTubers Wongfu productions! :D Wongfu for lyfe yo!

checkout my new nice guy shirt from WFP :D

Honestly I can't really imagine the days where we didnt have smart phones or phones without a data plan? I guess music did it...but now it's like making the most of my time! I can stream my fave Mayday music on the go, chat, Instagram, tweet, play battle camp online (haha! New game introed by the tech team and g) and after I have finish all my energies load more Wongfu videos to watch. 

All these in the time span I use to travel to and from work! Good stable entertainment on the go! 

What do YOU enjoy on 4G? Tell M1 as M1 would like to listen to what you say! Yay! Listening is always good...so when someone would like to hear me out...of course I share lah! Haha

Now your chance! Tell M1 what you enjoy on 4G in a short video not longer than 10 sec and upload it to their fb site. 

Here are the steps!

Like my example: I enjoy streaming YouTube videos on the go! (I'm such a YouTube junkie...they should give me some loyalty points to meet Wongfu XD heh) After you are done, it should look something like this...

Step 3: Stand in front of your camera / phone / laptop with video function and video yourself (when facing cam, your message should move in from the right and exit through the left)

Here's my video which I did! Hahahah, so pai seh pls!

everyone wants to be a superhero

Yoohoo! Another new post so soon after my last post...looks like someone's been pretty hardworking lately eh.

So before the weekend came and everyone went yippeeyahoo TGIF~~~! throws clothes and run amok. (No that's not me in case you were wondering.) There was another exciting event to look forward to this week. hehe. What is it? Don't tell you. Read on to find out.

Secretly everyone wishes to be a superhero, don't lie! You know you want to. I for one know that if I were to die young *choy. touch wood* I would definitely want it to be for some heroic reason of course, not something so stupid that in the event that i meet buddha in my afterlife i would feel so stupid to say how i died. lol.

That got you think abit....so the answer must be yes right! With all the super hero action movies coming out now especially IRON MAN 3, I'm guessing that would be pretty much what most guys would like to be now. (Super man's clark kent is really cute to but i think it'll be pretty awkward to cosplay as a guy who wears his underpants on the outside no? :P ) Cosplaying as Iron Man would be awesome!

Look at that and tell me it won't be cool (?!)

gimme my suit nao!

But then again being a cosplay liker I know a cosplay costume must be done well to bring out the machoism, and a good suit is totally going to cost greens. And so this thursday i was able to don the full Iron man suit without burning a hole in my pocket. Muahaha. How? Don't be so impatient lah! I'm getting there already!

All thanks to the good people at Disney together with Nuffnang,I was able to attend this media event that allowed all of the Nuffnangers and other media participants to suit up as Iron Man before the launch of the Iron Man 3 movie next week. Went down with a friend and photo credits with thanks to her. :) 

I was first greeted with all the Iron Man suits which can be found in the latest movie...feast your eyes on these....

Guess which of these were my favourite? :)

yesh. the original and iron patriot well cause it's mostly in blue which i love! :)

was lazy to do a manual collage so i used this online app to collage the pic above!

next is the suiting up part! heh. 

Iron man is not spidey man thus he does not have a camera as part of his props.
(i grew up watching marvel, so i know stuff like this. lol)

and so i can only take the process of someone else suiting up! 

 Here is Randy one of the Nuffnang blogger suiting up! Basically it's a augmented reality "game". In this game, all one has to do is stand in the assigned are and follow the simple actions (aka the super hero actions lah, you know you know...posey posey abit) 

Then *imagine the metal sound* piang piang piang* you are suited up virtually with your very own Iron Man amour. Cool or nottt. 

Let you be one minute of superhero also quite shiok lah hor. :P

completing the process! 

The last part just before the mask go on...you get to admire yourself in a Tony Stark moment, then *piang. sound effect again* you are Iron man!

But!

That's not all;)

Once suited up you can be another minute of a super hero, shiok a little bit more lah. haha.

But sorry, no damsel in distress to save..only have a rough 15 seconds of music to dance to the music...

Iron man dances?

haha...if only the iron man dances the macarena! hehehe.

that would be pretty epic. 

And after this there are two stages of game which was unfortunately i have no photo of...whoops...:X 

Exciting mah...gomen gomen. 

It was to shoot the flying targets and practice flying! No damsel to save but a super hero needs to practice to  be on your feet to save the world okay?

 Toys. Whoever say figurines were only for kids got it wrong. All wrong. 

 For all you Iron Man fans out there....chiong ahhh! 

thank you Disney for hosting us & the lovely goody bags (neh above! heh) and Nuffnang for bringing us down. :)

Are you excited for the release of the movie?!
I have a few friends who already prebooked their tickets...talk about fanatics!
woohoo!

Tony wait for mee k.
(as if calling my best friend like that)

Catch it in theater's next week! gogogo!
*sound effects*
piu piu piu zoooom!
(that was supposed to be the sound of Iron man shooting to save the day and flying off to his next destination...lol. Use abit of imagination! :P )

Denim. i know denim. I have been wearing it half my live pls!

Almost everyone who knows me knows that I am the poster child for being the Tees & jeans kinda person. or Shirt/blouse and jeans kinda gal.

Ok. Saying poster child is putting too much of myself in the beautiful ray of light because who am i kidding, when was I ever poster child material? ahh. in my dreams. not too bad there!

because my thighs are not in proportion to my hips and yada yada...i only learnt how to wear jeans and only that in my years of growing up from primary to secondary...so you can't exactly blame my fashion sense. I couldn't fit into other stuff well. lols...

Usually people find jeans suffocating....but for me the jeans I chose to wear are almost like second nature...of course i do have to admit there are those few which i would love to rip apart once i put them on.

But....denims have really been part of my life...it's been there for every other occasion...I would have inserted more example pics...but facebook only go that far and i have to sieve through waay too many! So let me show how i rock the fashionistic denim my way & how it blends right into my daily life and important points thereafter...

from when i go to USS to meet my favourite Kung Fu panda Po. 

i usually don't go so far back when looking at photos but since i was on this topic i found this pic very apt...

(an almost graduation day photo with my buddies then whom i've not met in a loong time)

doesn't it remind you of FRIENDS sitcom?

to visiting Ming's very important family day visit at his OCS

to celebrating a friend's birthday

and just trying to look cool. 

and feeling like a total rockstar. in tees. shades and denim looking o-so-cool. 

*ling is so going to kill me with this pic. but i think quite cute mah! :P

it makes picture perfect memories. 

well faded. *pun unintended.lols

you can see how important my denims are to me because i wore it on my first date. 

*ahems*

a girl can fantasize can't she?

In fact we all are rocking it out in denim! ( i think. wes are you?)

 all the way to meeting Mr President Obama. 

see my denims are awesome. 

they follow me throughout my lifetime. 

when it's cold it's probably the most practical wear pls. 

someone said something about being inflexible in it..?

See what i just did there? 

I made all your you go through my pictures of meee!

vicious. bhb. 

lols. 

So...

i feel the best denim style to suit the denim wearing me would be 

 it was down to this two...

*drum rolls*

.

.

.

.

.

.

after much thinking i believe starlet straight would be my choice. 

Because I like clean cut cuts. 

Nothing too fancy, very to the point,  like me.
>.< 

hahaha. :p

With clean cuts I feel it can transcend time, denim is something which has already transcend time and all fashion to let people know it is here to stay. I would like to be known as someone like that, not always chasing newest trends and fashion because it is changing. I know i wouldn't be able to keep up, i want to keep something timeless.Something i can effortlessly throw on a plain top and still bring me places, make me feel comfortable.

heh. 

i have no idea where my confidence comes from. 

from wearing a everlasting comfy pair of that denim.;P

see! we looked so good in our denim that when we asked momo opapa to help us take pic of us with the background he got tempted to shoot our denims instead. 

i rest my case. 

worst nemesis

I was reading Nuffnang's Blog just earlier on and came across this post.

It said:

"Hands up if you are…

Traumatized by acne problems?
Struggling with annoying whiteheads & blackheads?
Blotting your oily skin 24/7?"

Wahwahwah! They are talking to me man! Yea. *Que 2pm song* Put your hands up put your hands up! lols. so excited. -_- Not exactly talking about a happy incident here -____-. In fact it was one of the most traumatising period in my life. It was so bad that I really didn't dare to step out of the house for months to come as it grew worst, if you have never suffered the same fate before, YOU CAN NEVER UNDERSTAND.

my sentiments exactly!

Back then i tried tons of creams, facial and juice and what say you not kind of rubbish.

one scary one is from a good guy friend who swore by this method:
Using toothpaste to put on top of your pimple. 

he swears by it. 

being very trusting. #win. (but not a #win in this case ? )

I got a 'chao ta' face.
Well, too many pimples all over so I had to put so much and my face being sensitive got red and sensitive and 'burnt'. 

:(((

sad case max. 

after that. 

i just left everything alone. 

by miracle i can go out to see sunlight now. 

i suggest you see doctor. don't anyhow anyhow lah hor. 

or in accordance with the blog post i was reading earlier, i'll share with you...

they are having a giveaway!

so since you are desperate for a solution (how i know? been there. done that)

why not give it a try? 

:)
