First OOTD

I know it's autumn here in Melbourne but I wanted to do this post because it was requested by a reader who's thinking of getting this dress. I didn't want to make her wait instead I gave
her few photos of me wearing it with in the house, with no make up and messy hair just to 
give her an idea what it's like.

Then I thought to myself, I should start making ootd posts so that I have more things to blog instead of make up, right? Besides, it will give me more photos for me play around and improve my editing skills. 

So here you go, you can get this dress here. I bought it at $14.99 though. Think it was on sale.
I'm quite happy with the dress, the length is true to what it described and the chiffon 
is so soft. The quality is quite average. Not so cheap and not so expensive either.

Flat Sunday


Woke up early this morning. Thought of going to the South Melbourne market today but there's just something about the weather that makes me want to just lay back in bed and enjoy snuggling inside the duvet just a little bit longer...

The Esplanade tram stop at St Kilda
This picture was taken few days ago when I did my last blood test. A couple of months back hubs insisted that I should get a pre-natal blood test to see if my body was ready to get pregnant. 6 tubes of my blood were taken to check a lot of things. They checked my sugar level, folic acid, iron, signs of hepatitis and other things I can't really remember. Everything was fine except that I didn't have enough Vitamin D and there was no trace of rubella vaccine in my body. Us girls have to take two shots in your lifetime. One when you're a newborn and another one when you're 15 years old. I skipped the second part cuz at that time I just recovered from chicken pox. I'm pretty sure I took the first one when I was a newborn, I've seen the medical report somewhere. But since everything was in KL and it's just so troublesome to ask my mom look for it cuz we moved houses and all, I thought why not. Lets just jab me those two shots, kay doc?

 But it's not like you take two shots at one go. No no. After one shot, you have to wait another month for the second one. If you don't follow this rule, there a high chance you'd become a rubella monster.


















Okay that was a joke. Truthfully, I don't know what will happen but I'd rather follow doctor's advice and wait for another couple of months just to be safe right?

And guess what... Just like 5 mins ago when I was writing this, doc just gave me a call and said my vaccine is settled and I can start trying now!

Omg. Alhamdulillah.. It's been such a long painful wait....

Ok bye! gonna look for my hubby now!!!

Lol just kidding! I think Im gonna get my period in few days time and there's no way I can pregnant within this timeframe no?


Anyway, the purpose I wrote this post was to tell you guys how boring and gloomy the weather has been and I cooked this for lunch today.




Pad See Ew or Kuey Teow Goreng

I used the instant sauce I bought from Woolies few days ago and man it's just soo de-lish-us!!! I've tried making the dishes from scratch but somehow they never turn out like the real deal. So I'm so grateful Woolies have started selling this. Now whenever I get cravings for Pad See Ew, I don't have to pay $12.50 for take outs. I can do it at home!!!!!!!

Okay I think I'm a little bit overwhelmed with the news and I'm just this happy birdie dancing around in the living room. Hope you enjoyed this entry and see you guys sooooonnnnaaah!

P/S: Happy Mother's Day to all of you beautiful mothers out there!!!
