Cheap Pimple Solution: Nixoderm
And here comes probably the cheapest solution for pimples – Nixoderm. Just RM 4.90 for one sized like a 50 cent coin.
Apparently Nixoderm goes way back. Whenever my mum spots me with a nasty pimple, she would say “Got put Nixoderm or not?! Better put ah! And don’t press it ah!”
Then, she would go on about her using Nixoderm for her pimples back in her days and how she never put on any make up besides some lipstick and blusher in all her life.
ANYWAY.
Spot a little red bump on your face?
- That’s a pimple-to-be! (or is it?)
Apply some Nixoderm right away day and night on that little nasty thing before it evolves to something nastier. Then let nature take its course. It really helps.
I lost my Nixoderm some time ago (cause it’s so small) and the consequences were horrible! Finally made an effort to go to the pharmacy a couple of days ago to get a new one cause i spotted a pimple-to-be.
Started applying it since yesterday afternoon and it’s making some improvements now :)
Drinking plenty of water and going to bed before 12 am would help even more. I know it’s easier said than done *ahem* but let’s just try our best :)
p/s: I will not be responsible if it didn’t work for you. Results vary for different people. Besides, i did not promise 100% effectiveness.

Fine, I’ll “Cook” Something: Club Sandwich
Pepsi’s been complaining that i should learn up some cooking from the maid since ever. So one day, i decided that i’ll do something about it. It was one of those random days a couple of weeks ago, i can’t really remember.
I had the mood so.. mmm.
I picked the Club Sandwich cause it’s easy i’ve been thinking about it since the last time i ate it. It was during my last visit in Singapore.
I did some research online and bought the ingredients the next day.
Black Label bacon, don’t mess
Making it isn’t hard at all (please it’s just a sandwich). The only tricky part would be cooking the bacon. See, i have a thing about bacon. And i want my bacon to be perfect for my sandwich. How oddly particular, right.
So i found the best and easiest way to cook bacon – via oven.
Look at them fats
Bacon: Weeee!! *sizzles*
About 100 degrees celcius for 15 to 20 minutes, depending on how you like your bacon to be. For me, i wanted them to be a little crispy, so i went for about 20 minutes.
I monitored them closely, checking on them every there and then until they’re ready. When they start having little bubbles on them, it means that they’re almost ready.
Oh, and the smell of bacon cooking in the oven is absolutely GLORIOUS. Mm yes, glorious.. like sun rays beaming those kind.
Ingredients: Toasted bread, bacon, tomatoes, romaine lettuce, mayonnaise, and chicken ham
End product
And the verdict?
It’s good. Come on, you can never go wrong with a sandwich. It’s easy to make and it tastes good. What more with bacon and ham plus mayo, mmm.
The kitchen is a bloody sweat club, by the way. Phew!

Hi guys,
I know i know, this place is starting to look kinda dead right. When i want to write a post, i don’t have the time to. And when i have the time to work on a blog post, i don’t have the materials.
I kinda lost the mojo for photo taking cause of my camera. Don’t buy a Sony cause they are actually not that great. Anyway, i’ll try to bring up the mojo again. Or else this blog confirm cannot laku already.
So anyway, last Friday i had a rather good day. I was getting dolled up to go out that night and my eye make up came out really nice.
And i thought hey, maybe i should blog more of these. My make up looks :)
I like to try different techniques and styles when it comes to eye make up. Though most of the time i’ll go with the smokey eye. The cheeks and lips always stay the same cause i’m not much of a lipstick person.
Sometimes i get good results, sometimes i get lousy results. There’s some mood to it. I won’t say that my skills are awesome and perfect, but i do try to improve.
