Don't Give Up | Keep Walking Forward

Hey L o V e S,

How's your week been?

March is coming to an end,

I just realized how far I come, throughout my college life~

My friends and I will always joke about our diploma years, saying it was tough (when we were in our diploma years) and complaining that our degree years will even more stressful and complete "no fun"

The ironic part is, as I'm doing my degree now, we missed our diploma years so much~

How much stress is it, I didn't give up, and I'm almost done~

taking it step by step rather than not taking it at all~

But hey, we all got to keep walking forward in life, 

With a blink of an eye, my college or studies life is coming to end soon..

Although, I will definitely miss college life, but I got to keep walking forward in life in order to learn and grow as a person..

I think you all agree on that~

I always look at "life" as an undefined word,

there is no fixed meaning to it, everyone has different opinion and view about L.I.F.E~

I don't think I can stop learning, I learn something everyday in my life no matter how big or small it is.. That's the way I see & how I progress in life~

Never give up!

Example to this, will be my baby (my blog)

I started blogging in 2009~ 

Phewww~ is been that long already?

^-^

When I started blogging, I'm very self-conscious,

but I learn to be more confident in what I write and take comments as learning curve.. 

I think I've progress in the way I write my blog,

I learn to write better, I learn to write with my heart, I learn to take photo and I fell in love with taking pictures (well, besides selfie of course! LOL) because I got my new camera which I had the chance to test it during my Johnnie Walker Food & Whisky Pairing event..(not the selfie ones)

I want to be better at what I do, and wish to inspire someone in a way or another that I can.. I might not be the best at what I do, but I do my best in everything I do..

Looking back, I didn't imagine I'll be at where I am today...

I hope in another few years time, as we move forward in life,

I would be better & doing what I love..

That's my story~

Taking small part of my progression in what I do & not giving up~ 

When "giving up" is not in your option list,

you'll start to progress in what you do..

^-^

Johnnie Walker Food and Whisky Pairing Demonstration | Chef Nigel Richter

Hello~

A brand new week is here..

I have something to share with you all,

it was a exciting Wednesday for me 

=)

Thanks to Manoah for the exclusive insight to Johnnie Walker Food & Whisky Pairing Demonstration by Chef Nigel Richter at The Food Studio which has super nice set up and awesome kitchen~

Chef Nigel in action, preparing the food right before the event starts and is definitely a photo opportunity to see Chef Nigel do what he do best! :)

Chef Nigel Richter had prepared and introduced 3 type of food and paired them with 3 different types of famous Johnnie Walker whisky by demonstrating it to us~

Everyone is listening attentively to what Chef Nigel explaining about the food pairing and how to prepared it.

Dish 1:

Tiger Prawn Tempura & Dungeness Crab Maki

with Ponzu sauve, avocado, cucumber, scallions, radish, black and white sesame

That is paired with Johnnie Walker Black Label

which Chef Nigel's pairing flavor  profiles - Umami Rich Food, Seaweed, Sesame Seeds, Sake, Soy Sause.

Dish 2:

Spiced Oxtail Cappuccino

with slow-cooked oxtail, roasted shitake, smoked parsnip, fenugreek foam, crusty olive oil ciabatta, carrot dust

That is paired with Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve

which Chef Nigel's pairing flavor profiles - Braised Meat, Shitake Mushroom, Cinnamon, Cloves, Roasted Fenugreek Seeds.

Dish 3:

Smoked Cheese Cake

with Vanilla-hazelnut crust, pomegranate, white chocolate malt crunch, forest honey, fresh in-season berries

This is paired with Johnnie Walker Double Black Label

which Chef Nigel's pairing flavor profiles - Butter, Brown sugar, Honey, Hazelnut, Malt, Smoked, Vanilla

Definitely is an interesting experience for me,

trying food and dessert with whisky, because normally we all will have our food with wine..

But pairing it with Johnnie Walker whisky is some fresh and new to me.. AND I like it!

Is like taking my taste buds to a fun roller-coaster ride!

*exciting and fun*

Never knew pairing food and whisky can be this fun!

^-^

Dish 1 is something very new to me, because is sushi paired with whisky (Black Label) and I personally like the second and third dish~

With Jocelyn babe,
so much catching up, over some delicious food and whisky~

A Date With Yu Heng & Freshel

[Disclaimer: This is a sponsored post]

Hey my L o V e S!

what's happening this with you all?

Well, today I'm so happy to be able to share something with you all~

Thanks to Nuffnang Malaysia,

I had the chance to meet a Malaysian singer-songwriter Yu Heng, the new face for Freshel.

It was held at Royale Chulan Damansara.

"A date with Yu Heng and Freshel"

is a close and intimate event, where I was been introduce to Freshel and Yu Heng, herself tells us her story as a loyal Freshel user.

The product range from Freshel which caters for the needs of their customers. They have the Basic Concept, Whitening range, Moisture range, Extra Moisture range & Lift Moisture range.

I'm a girl, I do want to have a nice, even tone skin too~
I'm sure everyone wants to have nice skin and with our hectic lifestyle, taking care of our face is important especially girls, wearing makeup everyday or occasionally. 

Mr. Desmond shows us the different texture of Freshel Whitening Gel (white container) and Whitening UV Gel (blue container), which now they have a refill pack" for it, you don't have to throw the whole thing away, just the internal container.

Here, we had our "chit chat" session with the pretty Yu Heng, she is so friendly and humble~

She shared that she's glad that she can collaborate with Freshel, like any other girls, we all want to have few easy steps to take care our skin to the full potential, and Yu Heng has the same thought too, she like to keep things simple and that's why her favorite product is from Freshel time-saving range, particularly the All-In-One Gel which perfect for her as she juggles her hectic lifestyle with songwriting, work and family ( as she got married a year ago).

We are free to ask her some question and about her experience using Freshel and she was gladly to tell us.

Freshel is going to launch their own CC cream in May!

Look out for it girls~

If you girls want to have nice complex and have "no makeup" look, Freshel CC cream with SPF 20 PA++ helps correct visible skin color tone by evening it out and reduce dullness, have bright and natural skin tone, more watery, smoother, and lighter comparing to BB cream, CC cream can be removed with regular face wash.

With Yu Heng~

Really had a great time,

knowing much more in details about Freshel and meeting their new ambassador too~

Freshel is available at Sasa, Parkson & Watson~
