The first time that I colored my hair was in 2010.I've colored my hair at the hair salon three times and the remaining I did it myself.From 2010-2013 I've probably colored my hair like...15-20 times??It's always a different shades of brown but I did a crazy bright red in April this year.I just went for it because I was at the hair salon and there was so many pretty hair swatches.I actually colored it with my mum next to me as she was doing the rebonding treatment.

| 3 different haircolor this year |
This year I colored my hair 3 times.In April I dyed it red.In October(yes it was a longggg time before I recolored it again hahah) I used the Liese bubble hair color in Ash Brown.But recently I used the one below.My hair still have a bit of red in it but it's not as bright as before.I loveee the color below and would repurchase it and also it's superrrr moisturizing.But it has ammonia so if you don't like the smell make sure you buy other brands that are ammonia free.
I've had quite a few people asking me how do I keep it looking healthy and soft?I think it's quite simple...You can refer to my many blogpost about my haircare..
HERE and
HERE.
But today I'll be blogging about something new that I've been using on my hair which I've been loving.They're below--Ellips hair vitamin.

| This is great for your hair! |
I think this is amazing and great for travelling.You only have to shampoo your hair,towel dry it and pop one of the capsules on your head and massage it and let it air dry.Super easy and very moisturizing.It's so inexpensive as well..it was only rm9.90 for 12 capsules.
I wash my hair every 2 days using Clairol Herbal Essences long term relationship's line(the red one)--the shampoo and the mask.I don't use the normal hair conditioner because my hair is colored so extra moisture is important!I also blow dry my hair using an ionic hair dryer and a paddle brush.You can refer this in my old blog posts.
I've to admit I rarely use hair serum throughout the day..I only use a tiny bit before and after I blowdry my hair and that's it.
I will however share with you some of my hairtips to get rid of product buildup=shinier hair... I've done this a few times and it works!
1)After shampooing your hair,mix 1 part mouthwash with 8 parts water,pour over your head(close your eyes of course!) and massage it all over your scalp.Leave for about 5 mins and rinse with cold water.It get rids of product buildup and dandruff as well.
2)After shampooing your hair, mix a cup of warm water with a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar.Same as above.This makes your hair super shiny though it does have a funky smell to it.My advice,follow up with a nice smelling conditioner afterwards.:)
As you know,I love the pastries from Komugi..as evident by my
previous blogpost..which Komugi shared on their Facebook as well. I've been eyeing their chocolates ever since I saw them at their outlet in Subang Parade.The chocolates aren't available at the Sunway Pyramid outlet which is near my office..but I heard that they're available at Paradigm and Pavilion as well.It's called chocoletto and you can check their FB page

12 chocolates & one of my fave:Tropicana |
I choose 11 flavors..I took 2 creme brulee because the boyfriend and I love the dessert..we thought the chocolate version would taste awesome as well.And it definitely was!The flavors that I chose was China Doll,Koko Loco,Hazelnut Cafe,Mango Creme,Blackcurrant Bliss,Zen,Raspberry Burst,Love Potion,Pistachio Crunch,Tropicana and Creme Brulee.
My fave were Tropicana,Mango Creme,Love Potion,Koko Loco and Creme Brulee.I would definitely buy the chocolates again!And I think the chocolates would make great gifts
I love mochi!Recently the boyfriend bought me a box of 6 mochi from Mochi Sweets.I've eaten their mochi once or twice before.But I always order the sweet potato mochi.Mochi is made out of glutinous rice flour.Traditionally in Japan they'd pound rice into a paste to make it.

| Mochi with their different flavors |
I tried new flavors like chocolate mousse,mango and mango mousse and they were goooood.I just don't like the peach one for some reason.It tastes weird.Not like peaches that I usually eat..fresh or canned.

| Mmmm mochi innards! |
Here's the FB page for mochi sweets.Thank you boyfriend for the mochi sweets!Oh,the price was rm21 for 6 mochi.
I've to be honest that How I Met Your Mother or HIMYM,have been getting on my nerves because they keep spinning the story round and round..
Now that it's the last season(thank God!),they're finally showing us who's the mother.When I saw the mother in the finale of season 8,I was a bit disappointed because I thought she'd be..hotter?
That was a bit shallow on my part..but as I've watched the "mother" in season 9,I've to admit that she's cute as a button!
I just watched the latest episode of season 9--episode 9.And at first I was like..why are they still doing this flashback thing when we're suppose to watch how Barney&Robin's wedding unfolds.
*SPOILERS*
I understood why the episode had to be in such a way..they had to show how the "mother" was the one who influence Barney to pursue Robin and marrying her.They actually met at a drugstore,while he was trying to hit on her.
If only Ted would have known at that time that the woman he'd marry was her.But they haven't met then yet.:)
That episode resonated with me because back when I was 12 years old,before school assembly,I'd sit with this girl who would talk about Kevin Zegers and other actors that I'd never know about.
How would I know that 11 years down the road I'd fell in love with her cousin?Who's now my boyfriend of 3 years? The boyfriend was also in the same highschool as I was back when I was 15 years old but we've never met.
Also,my parents grew up in the same neighborhood as my boyfriend's father..my parents even know of his siblings.My dad shared the same colleagues as my boyfriend's mum because they used to work for the same airline.
Fate works in such a funny way.Don't you think so?
