To all my readers,

To those that have been reading my blog, u guys know that i am going for my backpacking trip early next year BUT i might forward my trip to this year end coz i would love to see snow (yes I've never seen snowing before) and join the Christmas celebration in western countries having Christmas dinner with my hosted family (be it in US or EUROPE).. instead of going only to Europe i might visit US too.. So if u guys would love to host me or have me around in your coach, sofa, room for a day or 2 or week, do let me know i would love love love it coz i am going on backpacking solo so that means i am on a very very tight budget, so if u have friends or people u know that can host me please do email me, will really really appreciate it... if u would love to bring/drive me around i will be really really grateful too. I am starting to plan my itinerary for US so wish me luck huns.. i cant wait to go :) My hubby is more nervous than me,so if i can prove that i can take good care of myself and provide him with the detail itinerary and plans of having people hosting me he will be relieved. Hope to hear good news from you :) I might start my trip either in US or Europe..Have a good week guys :)

To some who are curious about Myron. He is a very nice guy, a Taiwanese guy who study in UK, been to many countries and share many of his traveling experience with us. He went back to Taiwan to visit his family and went to Sydney for a few days, stop over in Singapore for 2 days before going back to UK. We host him for 2 days 1 night and we are really glad to have him here.. Such a sweet guy that we are definitely gonna miss him.Myron come back soon and i cant wait to see u in UK :)

Cheers,
Summer

Traveling is my number one favorite. even though its not like anywhere soon next month but still i am feeling so excited already... I have like months to get ready and do my research on the places i want to go... in order to make my dream come true i need help from you ladies who experienced traveling on your own, traveled to any part of Europe, any backpackers out here, residence who stay in any part of Europe that can provide me with all the information u know. I am going to start a diary the moment i set out on my own and i know that this time its going to be an awesome experience for me, a once in a life thingy with no regret. Hubby is so supportive that he encourage me to go see the world and fulfill my dream and make it come true since i am still young with no commitment. I am drowning myself in thick thick travel books and staring on my lappie clicking away for more information..i am trying to plan my own itinerary so if i cant submit a good one then as hubby say he wants me to join contiki or topdeck group so that i can travel and be safe at the same time

Email me @ summerleaf13@hotmail.com if:
  • U can give me information about Eurail (price, how it works)
  • What are the best places to visit
  • Am i able to work and travel there? (like earn a meal or stay kind of thingy)
  • How do you budget while traveling?
  • What are your advice to pack for a month or more
  • What are your advice on safety?

  • whats the best time of the year to go visit?
  • Whats the worst time to travel
  • Homestay experience or anything u know about

Even though i've been to Paris, London, Barcelona, Rome i am still going there to visit the places i've missed.. i want to meet new people.. i may appear shy and tongue tied to strangers but i believe i can do these all by myself. Would love to see you guys email and comments!!! Summer wait for u *hugs*

RED ALERT!! Remove all your chat box



Hi guys, just want to share a big RED ALERT news with everyone here, SOMEONE COWARD/SHUNK JUST USED MY NAME (SUMMER) TO LEAVE SHITTY REMARKS AND COMMENTS IN MY CHATBOX, if u notice at my side bar, the chatbox is missing. And sad to announce i have just remove it because i notice a piece of dung=cow shit have stained my chatbox..whoever he or she or u who wants to get me, live a life of your own.. U may not like me but doesnt mean u have to act stupid, just leave my followers and me alone coz i believe no one like u too :) i just wanted to say its not difficult for me to track u down coz my hubby is in the technology line and its not difficult for me to know who u are, but i do not want to waste my time as well as my hubby's time. if u do not like me, u can kindly leave a comment using your own name not not using other people name and email, only childish and coward people do that. Not sure whats the reason for u to do that but i believe there must be something about me that triggers u to do that, so feel free to leave me a comment to solve the unhappiness u had..i am more willing to do so :)

For those that knows me long enough, knows that i am not so stupid to do such childish act, and thanks for being here for me during such bad times. For those that are here for me are friends that u the shunk cant get, heard that ? thanks for leaving me sweet supporting comments guys,u guys are the best :)

Salt Caramel Roll

See how cute their plastic bag is
The other side
The brand of the shop
See how cute the box are
Delicious
woo la la
Drooling

Bought this at ION Orchard last week and ohhh i cant resist anything that is written butterscotch or caramel, therefore i want this!! Look at the vanilla roll coated with thick thick layer of caramel, tell me which sweet tooth can resist this???!!! To my disappointment this cake is sold out almost everyday in less than an hour when the shop opens and i have to make reservation in order to get mine. It cost me $18. what so great about this is : this cake is being flown in from Japan, so now u get it why a piece of cake cost such a high price. They are fluffy, light and not so sweet coz the caramel taste a bit bitter and salty. But if u ask me will i buy it a again i will say a "NO" (but i am glad i have it once in a lifetime), the reason? Stated below:

Y did i buy them in the first place? :
  • I was being attract by the appearance
  • Coz its written "sold out" every time i walk pass them
  • Every review online seems to have positive feedback
  • Famous in Japan
  • Curious about the taste
  • Curious what makes them sold out everyday and having such long Q in Japan
Y i dislike it :
  • Its expensive
  • Its so small
  • Its not really "delicious" as much as it look
  • It comes with bitter taste
  • I cant accept salty taste in my cake
  • Nothing fantastic to make me want to buy it again
What i like about it :
  • It fluffy
  • Not very sweet (no guilty feeling after eating it) lol
  • Comes in 3 flavors (vanilla, salt caramel, green tea)

Home remedies for lip scrub




Hi guys,

Sorry for leaving and keeping you people waiting for so long.. i have been buzy working on weekdays and doing volunteer work during weekends. So please forgive me for not updating my blog.. In order to show my apologies, i am going to do this post on how to create your lip scrub. Its easy and and it work. These ingredients can also be found at home and best of all, i've tested it on my own lips (just 10mins ago, and here i am typing this out to share with u guys) i really works well on my lips effect, now i have soft, smooth lips. So wanna share these with you people. As u google through, u can easily find tons and tons of articles on teaching and recipe for home made remedies. And i found this-->
Skin care and remedies

**Its based on my personal reviews so different people will experience d
ifferent results**

So lets start :)

Ingredients u need:
  • 1 teaspoon of honey
  • 1 teaspoon of baking soda
  • Olive oil

Mix honey and baking ingredients until the mass resembles a paste.
Apply the mix on your lips and leave it on for a couple of minutes.
Gently rub the lips.
Wash of with lukewarm water

Let the lips dry out and then apply olive oil. It will help the lips hydrate.

There is also a recipe that is very simple, too. Apply unsalted butter on your lips occasionally. That's it. It has the same effect as the olive oil.

My Rapunzel Rapunzel hair extension is here!!


Yeh yeh yeh...thanks Mr postmanWow..i am definitely letting my hair downComes in a neat boxRead the instructions :)I ordered it in #6 light brownUnder flash lightComes in 6 parts

After having fun with clip on hair extension with my Japanese curl (synthetic hair) and watching my all time favorite Youtube gurus using Rapunzel Rapunzel clip on hair extensions, i decided to give it a try with real hair extension. I can list a whole lot of good points of using real hair extension such as u are able to wash it, perm it, dye it, straighten it with straighter, curl it with curler, comb it and even use hair products on it, isn't it awesome?? I swear that their service is first class and the price of it is consider affordable, their pre and post sale support is efficient. I email them umpteen times asking them for advice on the color i should get in order to match mine, asking them when i will received it, asking them the difference of Euro and Remi hair and they are so nice to explain to me, sending me reassurance, giving me advice on the color and they never fail to reply me in like half an hour (i email them most of the time at around 11.30PM GMT+8). I am super impressed with their service and the quality of the hair. It is super soft and smooth and i love how it adds length and volume to my head.. Maybe i will do a post on before and after (straight hair look and curly look). If u are looking of clip on hair extension, try Rapunzel Rapunzel and u will be glad u are paying it for something worth your $$.

Go check out their site now--->

My volunteer work at animal shelter

The dogs love treats
Checking their fur for ticks or fleas
They are waiting for me to give them treats
My hubby giving them biscuits
See how attentive they are

See how Hyper love his treats
Hi guys, sorry that i have been away for some time. Wanna share this post with u guys, even though its not beauty related but something i find it meaningful. I went to an animal shelter called "Madam Wong Shelter" to be a volunteer. Something about Madam wong that my heart went out to her is, she sold her house in order to make this shelter for the strays,without any financial help from the government and public, she is being so selfless and doing everything she can to give the animal a chance to live. She rescue out 9 cats using $1000 in order for them not being put to sleep. With so many cats and dogs she is keeping, i wonder if she can make ends meets. A little something that i can do is to donate a small sum to her (a little something that can help lessen her burden). Due to the hot weather i am unable to walk them and due to the cut off timing for the water supple between 1pm to 5pm, i cant bath them but i spend my 5 hours there playing with them, patting them, stroking them, they love our company. At the same time i am helping to find fans that are still in working condition so that the dog can use in such a hot weather and of course not forgetting donations, sponsership for animals supply like shampoos,medications for ticks and fleas dogs treats.I post up lots of shout out using facebook, hopefully i will get some good news.Pray hard for me yah!
