An Ode To Creativity: Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert

I just finished a book that will change my life. Seriously. Back in 2009 I read Eat Pray Love and yes, I proclaimed that it was a life-changing book. This was not a lie, people! The way Gilbert wrote about her coming-of-a-certain-age tale was really beautiful and touching, and it was one of those books I…

My Bae: Nature Republic The First Essence (Review)

I recently finished one of my favourite products ever: Nature Republic’s The First Essence. I bought this on a whim when I popped over to Korea back in November, and it had been burning a hole in my case/cupboard ever since. Y’all know how much I love Nature Republic. As far as high street brands go,…

Dining at Jason’s Food Hall, Bangsar Shopping Centre

Hi friends! Long time no chat. This year, we’ve popped over to Australia twice (because why not? Also, weddings) and I my focus has been slightly sapped. And by slightly I mean totally — I’ve let work get in the way of my creative life once again… and that just does not work for me!…

What Climbing Taught Me About Myself (And Life)

Two weeks ago, I tried climbing for the first time… and let me tell you, this stuff is no joke. Of course, when you think of climbing gyms, it’s not like you assume it’s easy, but honestly… it’s way harder than I could ever imagine. The thing is, this wasn’t only physically — to me, climbing…

Shiny Pretty Things: Nature Republic Botanical Crystal Shadows

When I popped over to Korea back in November, I went absolutely nuts in Nature Republic. I mean, that’s no surprise to anyone, but the issue remains that I seem to have more K-beauty products than sense. There’s bags in bags and boxes on boxes, and I want to make sure I’m appreciate all these pretty…

How To Survive In The Workplace If You’re An Introvert

Ahh, introverts. Can’t live with ’em, can’t live without ’em. Recently I’ve found myself very fascinated with personality tests, and the alarming accuracy with which my type describes me. It’s peculiar and crazy and also kind of relieving. I wanted to write a bit about it today, because being an introvert can be a wonderful…

Bae in a Cushion: Nature Republic’s Nature Origin Cushion CC Natural

If you know anything about me, you’ll know that I love lemon tarts. That is no lie! You know, when I first moved to Malaysia, I was astounded — astounded — at the severe lack of citrus-based deserts here. It’s ridic, and it does not please me. Not one bit. I guess the only saving grace…

My Valiant Trio Of Makeup Removers

Some would say that it’s indulgent to have three makeup removers on the go. To those people, I would say… they perhaps have a point, but it ain’t gon’ stop me. You see, after my journey into the weird and wonderful world of K-beauty, I’ve learnt that it is indeed crucial to remove makeup not…
