Appealing for witness for robbery on 10th Dec 2013 or earlier near York Hill Estate, near Chin Swee Road


Sorry for the absence. My dad, Lim Lay Hock, was assaulted and robbed, most probably on the 10th Dec or slightly earlier.  We're not sure where he was robbed but most probably near his home at York Hill Estate near Chin Swee Road, opp Outram Sec Sch.

He was hospitalized in SGH on 10th Dec and just passed away on the 20th Dec. We were all deeply grieved by it because it was an unnatural death..... Was so emotionally and physically drained. :(

We're currently appealing for witness, please kindly share and spread if possible. I will be most grateful!!




To the robber who assaulted my dad and caused his death, I really dont understand how you can beat up a 60 year old man so severely and live the rest of your life. Really urge all to be more careful because Sg is no longer safe. My dad's collarbone was broken, suffered a fracture of ribs which punctured his lungs, with head injuries. All these triggered pneumonia/stroke/heart attack. He passed away after 10 days of coma. The killer is still at large, enjoying his Xmas with my dad's valuables. Anyone with any info in regards to seeing my dad being robbed, please kindly contact me. We're not really sure where he was being robbed but we believe it's near his home at York Hill Estate near Chin Swee Road, opp Outram Sec Sch, on the 10th Dec or earlier. Deeply appreciate if you can share. Lastly, it will be good if you can educate your old folks not to wear valuables when they are out alone(ya some dont listen, but just try). And pls pls go hospital and call police immediately after being attacked because it's easy to underestimate the injuries. Have a merry Xmas....and stay safe everyone....Thanks for all your condolences.



It was really stupid of me, initially I put up dad's picture at the wake because that's the only one I have.



So many kind souls commented to send us their condolences. I'm so deeply touched! The post also have few hundreds shares. BUT, I thought that picture dont look like dad and I wished to change to the recent photo of his. Unable to find that option, I deleted the picture, thinking I can replace the picture. But the WHOLE POST got DELETED without warning. So damn angry with myself!!

Lastly, I thank everyone who had messaged me in one way or another and friends who came down to the wake. Most of you look so tired, I felt so sorry and yet so touched at the same time. Love you all!!


Singapore is no longer safe.

Please be vigilant and stay safe!!! God bless us all............

My Personality Type: The Groundbreaking Thinker


My Personality Type: The Groundbreaking Thinker

So accurate! Im amazed! (I dont mean I'm charming, I merely mean my characteristics and traits does match)

Groundbreaking Thinkers are charming, enthusiastic persons. They really bubble over with energy and like to take centre stage. They love variety both professionally and privately. Groundbreaking Thinkers tackle changes consistently with their optimism and firm belief in their own abilities; they are always on the look-out for improvement possibilities.
Their excellent communication skills are of great advantage to them here. They approach the world with curiosity and openness and master new situations with a great deal of talent for improvising and with resourcefulness. Their spare time is taken up with a large number of hobbies; most Groundbreaking Thinkers like to travel in order to gather as many different impressions as possible. This personality type is unbeatable at discovering new possibilities.

In their work, Groundbreaking Thinkers highly rate challenges and diversified tasks. They cannot stand routine and too detailed work. They love to astound others with bold ideas for an original, new project and then leave it up to the others to implement them. Hierarchies, rules and regulations arouse their opposition and they love outsmarting the system. It is vital to them that they enjoy their work; if this is the case, they quickly become pure workaholics. Their creativity best takes effect when they work independently; but they are very good at motivating others and infecting them with their optimistic nature. Conceptual or advisory activities appeal especially to Groundbreaking Thinkers. It can happen that some people feel somewhat duped by their flexible, spontaneous nature.

» Get career advice for your type

Their sociability and enterprise ensure that Groundbreaking Thinkers always have a large circle of friends and acquaintances in which activity plays an important role. As they are mostly in a good mood, they are popular and very welcome guests. Grumbling and peevishness are unknown to them. However, they do tend to be a little erratic and unstable when it comes to obligations and this makes them appear to be unreliable to some. Groundbreaking Thinkers are very critical and demanding when it comes to picking a partner because they look for the ideal relationship and have a very concrete picture of this ideal relationship. Mutual aims in life are very important to them. They do not like compromising and would rather remain alone. For the partner, it is often a challenge to have a long-term relationship with a Groundbreaking Thinker. Groundbreaking Thinkers need a lot of space and diversity or otherwise they become bored and feel cramped. Types who are rather more traditionalistic often have problems with the willingness of Groundbreaking Thinkers to take risks and their often crazy, spontaneous actions. However, if one can summon up sufficient flexibility and tolerance for them, one will never be bored in their presence and will always have a loyal and faithful partner.

Adjectives that describe your type
extroverted, theoretical, logical, spontaneous, rational, innovative, intellectual, open, independent, curious, enterprising, analytical, clever, enthusiastic, venturesome, inventive, energetic, sociable, optimistic, non-conformist, creative, freedom-loving, charming, able to get enthusiastic, self-confident, communicative, capricious, inconsistent, outgoing


As a Groundbreaking Thinker, you are one of the extroverted personality types. Dealing with others, communication, discussions, and a little action are your life’s blood - and some of your strengths. You are very articulate and love variety personally as well professionally. New tasks, new projects, new people, fascinate you because you are always interested to increase your wealth of experience. Consequently, you have no problem run with the hare and hunt with the hounds; juggling parallel tasks to be accomplished electrifies you, and you are an accomplished improviser. Your enthusiasm carries others along and enables you to create positive impulses in your team. Mountains of paperwork, endless e-mail correspondences, and solitary work tire you quickly, and bore and frustrate you. The appreciation of your work by others is more important for you than for the introverted Thinker types. You measure your own professional value by the admiring glances of your colleagues and superiors. The psychologist Keirsey once described the Groundbreaking Thinker as the “soul of the company,” and that can be just as easily applied to an employee position, as to an independent chief of a company. Since risk represents less of a threat than excitement, freelance or self-employment are well suited to you. However, you must take care to have collaborating staff around you, or that you are able to work closely with other teams in order to satisfy your contact and communication needs. You are naturally suited for leadership positions because there you have the ultimate freedom making your decisions and choosing your tasks.

DIY Dye. Nice?


*Zero Edit* So please pardon the frizziness. 

I only dyed the bottom 2cm of my head of hair so it's not visible unless I sweep my hair to the side.

Weirdly, it's only 1 colour, but the colour looks so textured: like red, burgundy and purple. =)

It's semi-permanent, but I do hope it doesnt fade so quickly. =)

Comments: Omg, 闷死我。I thought the script was OK but the directing was a disappointment. It wasnt thrilling at all despite it's supposed to be. I was hesitant to watch this because I never heard of the director before. But I thought; Daniel and Simon. Nahz....Simon is just a calefare(extra).

Movie Review: The White Storm 掃毒




Movie Title: The White Storm 
Ratings: 4.7/5
Comments: Yet another great awesome movie by director Benny Chan!!! I love HK movies!!! There was a time where I was kinda sian with all the same actors and police-thieves kinda story line again and again; movies like 无间道,窃听风云,线人,证人。But I was lured once again by another production by Benny and all 3 leads were among my favorite actors as well, especially Nick Cheung! What was so captivating about the whole show was the very unique plot; yes, it somewhat revolves around being an undercover again BUT it's really different! It was funny as hell too. I laughed till I cried, and then cried till I laughed again. Oh manz......Love this movie alot, depicts brotherhood which is oh so touching.

Co-written by Benny Chan and Manfred Wong. Awesome!

An Ancient City Is Discovered Underwater.


An Ancient City Is Discovered Underwater. What They Found Will Change History Forever

Posted on: December 1, 2013 · By Sunny Skyz
underwater city Heracleion discovered
http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/archive/02548/heracleion-2_2548191k.jpg
The city of Heracleion was engulfed underwater 1500 years ago. This grand city had been mentioned by the Greek writer Herodotus, the 5th-century BC historian. He had told a wonderful tale of Helen of Troy, who traveled to Heracleion, then a port of 'great wealth', with her Trojan lover, Paris.
When French marine archaeologist Franck Goddio stumbled upon some relics, it led them to one of the greatest finds of the 21st century; a city underwater. The discovery took place when Goddio had been in search of Napoleon’s warships from the 1798 Battle of the Nile, when he had been defeated by Nelson in these very waters, but to his surprise, he stumbled upon this magnificent discovery.

More and more statues are brought to surface, still in excellent condition

The discoveries include the colossal statues of the Egyptian goddess Isis, the god Hapi, and an unidentified Egyptian pharaoh, all preserved in excellent condition by their muddy burial shroud. Along with these 16ft statues there are hundreds of smaller statues of Egyptian gods, among them the figures that guarded the temple where Cleopatra who was inaugurated as Queen of the Nile. Dozens of sarcophagi have also been found, containing the bodies of mummified animals sacrificed to Amun-Gereb, the supreme god of the Egyptians. Many amulets, or religious charms, have been unearthed, too, showing gods such as Isis, Osiris and Horus.

Evidence shows that Heracleion slipped into its watery grave sometime in the 6th or 7th century AD. The discovery of Heracleion will now add depth and detail to our knowledge of the ancient world, because among the discoveries, there are perfectly preserved inscribed pillars decorated with hieroglyphics.

Light & Natural Makeup Look


Ever since past the age of 30...(I'm 31 this year), I've been trying to wear lesser makeup. Now I'm a true believer of less is more. I've searched online for such looks, the light and natural look or simply the no-makeup makeup look(假素颜) but I still feel they're kinda too heavy for me because most tutorials still involve the use of light foundations and heavy BB-creams or CC-creams, just that the quantity is lesser.

I've cut down the use of foundations and sticking to light BB creams and CC creams for work and nights out. And now, my new love is skipping them and just using good bases and primers, as well as concealers for imperfections with a finishing touch of very fine loose powder.

I've been wearing it like this pretty frequently lately for casual days and dinners. FAR from flawless, as close-ups can still see my crater-size pores.....but...I like how light and natural it looks...and feels on the skin. They lasts a decent 8hours with just 1 blot; I'll add my favorite primer cum sunscreen from Biore (Pictured below, apply before the base) if I want it to last longer with no shine. Can touch up with the very portable size of loose powder which I use.


*Zero Edit*
*Taken in car while on the road under natural sunlight with Samsung Note 2 normal camera*


If you love a fresh face makeup which is decent and presentable, you can consider the following products which I use to achieve this look. 

Skin Type: Combination(oily t-zone), very sensitive and acne-prone
Skin tone: Light to Fair (yellow-based)

FACE
Base: Etude House, Sweet Recipe Baby Choux Base in No. 2 Berry Choux (not suitable for dry skin, a little goes a long way)
Concealer: L'oreal True Match Concealer in Fair/Light (Must blend well)
Power: Etude House, Precious Mineral Sun Powder(loose powder), SPF 15 PA+++
Blush: F.O.X Fusion of expressions One Touch Blush in coral (Very pigmented, use light hand)






EYES
Eyebrows - Heavy Rotation Eyebrow powder 01 Light Brown
Eyes - TheFaceShop Make me Star Waterproof gel Liner in black
        - YiTong Falsies in H05






Sadly, I'm not blessed with big and "awake" eyes nor long and full eyelashes, so I need eyeliner and falsies to "open up" my eyes, but I kept the liner very thin and falsies simple and natural-looking. I still line my under-eyes to join them with the upper line, but I only drew 1/4 of the lower eye and blend them in softly. If you have sharp and big eyes, you can use a brown liner instead of a black liner and light mascara instead of falsies. Stay away from liquid eye liners and pigmented lipsticks as they'll make you look harsh/heavy with such a fresh face. Lip tints and sheer lipglosses are suitable. But I usually leave my lips bare, maybe only with lip balm or some sheer lipglosses. They are bare in the pic though. 


Thanks for reading~

Dearie's birthday at Park Regis Hotel - Full Review of Park Regis for 3 different staycations


It's hard to plan a birthday surprise especially when you see your hubby everyday....including the time when you work. >.<  I had to fish my credit card sneakily to book the room for his birthday eve and despite so, he kinda saw how I key in my credit card numbers in the midst of booking something and was as happy as a bird. Geez....I tried to act embarrassed and said, "Huh...the credit card is for my online shopping.....I never plan anything leh....sorry dear...lately really busy no time."

His face fell. "Orh............nevermind lah....we just go for a dinner lor...."

"Ok."

My acting not bad leh. Lol.

So after our work and supper, which was already very late, I had to wait for him to sleep before I can start packing. OH MY GOD, he only went to sleep at around 3+am....zzZzzz......and by the time I finished packing(simply too many stuff on my mind too), it was around 4+am. I was so tired, and I also thought it's kinda dangerous for me to put the stuff into his car boot at that hour...so I was like....arggghhhh......forget it la...he sees the holiday bag then sees it lahhhhh~

We're supposed to check in at 3pm and actually I intended for us to catch a high-tea at L'espresso, Goodwoodpark from 12pm - 3pm prior to checking in. BUT, I was simply too tired and overslept. And had to hurry both of us to bathe and get changed. He saw the packed bags anyway and was happy as a bird.

"Dear, you planned something for me righttttttt?"

"Ya la ya la...since you saw liao.... Dear!! *act excited and enthu* I've planned a surprise PICNIC at SENTOSA, we can go stroll along the beach lomantic lomantic and then head for a swim!! Dear, you love swimming isnt it?? I already pack your swimming briefs liao!" *SmileZ*

His face fell again.


SO FUNNY LAH!!! Wahahahahaha!!!

The thing is, he hates Sentosa and picnics and stuff(he knows I'm into it) BUT he does really likes swimming! So for a MOMENT, he indeed believed me(I think). LOL. However, logic got the better of him and he said, "Dear, it's going to rain. Need to change plan liao."

WAHAHAHAHA.

I think after my hilarious laugh, he also realized I couldnt have plan that for him since I know he's so NOT into picnics and such. It's a norm for us to have staycations, but he didnt know which hotel I book. Since he had to drive, he asked for the address, and I said 23 merchant road, thinking he wouldnt know where and was opening my "MAPS" app to direct him. Stupid lor me...how could he not know....and he said, "Hee.....Park Regis huh?" I was like........"....ya la......."

ANYWAY, the boy was happy. FYI, it's super difficult to get him to smile properly for a picture. This is the most precious.







 The Room

The room is definitely not considered big but it's very cosy to me, to us. I like the concept of the open bathroom alot because sometimes I feel uneasy if the toilet is kinda far away and a big one on it's own. *Spooky* Oh if you love bathtubs then sorry this doesnt come with one. It comes with rain shower, which is also very shiok! =) 



Oh....I have to say the TV channels are really PATHETIC. Thank god I bought my Lenovo along and using connection from my HP, we watched shows on my lappy while munching our tidbits. I love the bedsheets!!! So smooth and soft!!!! The pillows are very soft too, I might consider requesting for a firmer one for sleeping next time. 



The rooms are brilliantly designed so much so that ample space are saved; there are hidden drawers, hidden fridge, it's most amusing.  Wine glasses, wine opener, tea and saucers, hair-dryer, ironing board, safe etc. I love the floral carpets too. Although there isnt a proper dressing table, the surrounding mirrors are great for makeups; you can sit on the bed to do your makeup by turning to the left for the mirror. By the way...I love this comfy and thin long t-shirt with sweet pink florals and Eiffel towers!! Only S$10 from bugis village. *love*




The toiletries are of good quality and leaves both your hair and skin feeling great. However, I dont like the scent very much. If you're particular with scents then it's better to bring your own. 

It was lovely and damn shiok! Quite cold though and it was a pity we cant swim, partly because it was simply too cold and we kinda overslept also. HAHA! 

The main reason why I chose Park Regis was that dearie mentioned he wished to have the grilled cod from The Pump Room, Clarke Quay for his dinner on his birthday eve. Park Regis is walking distance to CQ and is a relatively new and charming hotel. FYI, for Park Regis, check-in time is 3pm while check out is 12pm. This is our 3rd staycation at Park Regis.

During our 1st stay, as the hotel was super new then, they had some hiccups and it wasnt until 5.30pm that we're allowed to check in; they did compensate with a slighter later check-out at 2pm(I think) plus an AWESOME complimentary dinner and drinks at Suite 23, their lobby restaurant, which includes soup, salad, 2 mains and dessert! (We paid for my lychee martini). Very yummy steak, I remembered! So overall, still a very pleasing experience!

The 2nd stay went smoothly without hiccups. Nothing out of the norm.

This time round, our 3rd stay, it was all great; the service was good too; reminded me of Fullerton's, where the receptionist actually walked us to the lift and pressed the buttons for the level we stayed. Of coz in comparison, the distance is much shorter, lol, but it's the sincerity and effort that counts. =) At checkout, another receptionist asked us how was our stay with affection. I had to tell her frankly it was all great until there was a neighbor guest who chatted animatedly with a laundry auntie early in the morning at 8am.

They spoke for more than 5minutes and it was full blown in our rooms. Being a light sleeper, I was already being awaken. Bearing no more, I opened my door and said to them, "Can you lower your volume please?" I dont remember whether I got a reply because I went back to bed immediately. They continued to chat audibly for around 1 or 2minutes more before....to my horror....the laundry auntie came to press our doorbell asking for laundry. Dearie shouted "No" to her and she left.

As hotels were generally quiet in the rooms premises......we didnt have any problems with noise.  It wasnt until this episode that we realized actually their rooms are not very sound-proof. The receptionist, surprisingly, heard me out throughout and gave me a sympathetic and sorry apology. WOW, you know usually people just ask for feedback for the sake of asking, but I felt she was really listening. I just felt better already. Sometimes customers just simply wished to be heard. Oh well, it was just 1 unlucky morning. 



Yup, so the grilled cod at Pump Room.......as always......his favorite. The prawns are starters, nice and fresh though nothing to scream about. He likes the dessert while I'm not one with a sweet tooth. 





After that we strolled around CQ and went Liang Court for some shopping of snacks to munch at night. We had Japanese crepes and it was niceeeee! Bought some Lychee Black Tea, Tea Voyage, from a pushcart. 



Very fragrant though more expensive than usual. A tin at S$28 with 20 teabags. But yeah, 1 teabag can make few cups of tea. 


Ahhh.....it has been such a long time since the "pator" feeling is back because we're always so busy....despite our effort to grab a nice dinner and movie now and then. Maybe because eventually you'll head home and there's always tons of housework and work to do.......... =(
It's just not the same when you're on a staycation. =D It simply feels different and wonderfullllllll. =)  I miss going overseas......will definitely try to arrange one soon....else I'm going berserk soon...


Bought tiramisu from FourLeaves, Liang Court, to act as his birthday cake. Haha. I had 1 too. 



Happy birthday my dear...........smuacks!!! 
Sincerely wishing all the best and only the best for you........and hope that we'll always be happy together........ =)




Happy Belated Birthday Cutie Pie! Hope you like the pressie~!~

Hi
I see the nett amount is only around 69.55% of total, meaning it's only 30.45% off instead of 35% as promised by the promo code.
That's because of the GST which is later being added on right?

Hi LUXOLA
I NEVER said you're not ALLOWED to collect the GST and not dumb enough to know that it is a government regulation.
I dont care when you're allowed to collect them either. 
I merely wish to CONFIRM the NETT amount I'm paying is correct as it was a MISLEADING 35% off sale AFTER GST been added to the discounted amount
BECAUSE the nett amount I'm paying is not 35% OFF my gross total.

You get it?

NEVERMIND, I do understand this is normal marketing sales gimmicks, I dont really treat it very seriously
UNTIL your very RUDE and condescending email.

What a great after-sales service.

Last time I'm buying from Luxola.


This order summary is NOT the same when I was paying. The "GST" amount was being omitted.

Maybe next time before you pay for any online shopping, calculate the gross and nett amount yourself to see exactly how much discount you're getting(as promised), instead of getting duped by misleading marketing gimmick AND THEN slammed with such a rude email reply. When I was paying, it was simply shown as gross amount, discount applied ($25.90) and NETT total S$51.47; So I simply paid without any thoughts. The GST amount WASNT STATED AT ALL(When it was actually secretly being added in). SO unless your mental maths is so good or you manually calculate it yourself, you wont know what you're paying is only a 30% off instead of a 35% off.

Yaya I know only 5% difference, but I'm a black and white person. 35% is 35%, 30% is 30%. If I tell my clients their premium is $249.50, I'm damn sure not 50cents more is charge to their account.

Too bad I didnt printscreen when I was at the order cart page; I almost did because I'm sharing 1 beauty blender sponge with my friend. Damnz!

As I said, I'm FINE with such marketing gimmicks, it's not the 1st time anyway, with GST later being added on; I feel 30% off is also not bad too. BUT I'm just furious with the way my email is replied.
