Ed Sheeran Live in KL

Hi guys! Omg, so sorry for not updating my blog for quite a while. Been REALLY BUSY recently especially these few weeks. Starting to feel stressed and pressured bout college life, it made me feel that secondary school life was just a piece of cake.

For people who don't know, I've joined Student Council of TCSH and they've actually warned us the workload will be no joke. Honestly the workload was not what I've expected hahaha (in a bad way). I'm in the events department and we have to plan a lot of stuffs for all sorts of upcoming events in the college. And the most recent one will be the March orientation day & March orientation party - which will be held next week! Fingers crossed that they'll be successful!!!!  had already passed and I'm really delighted coz it's A SUCCESS! YAYYYY.

Okay, stop all the nonsense and let's move on to my blogpost hahahaha.

I've went to Ed Sheeran's concert last Monday (March 16th), and I've actually bought the tickets last year when I was having my SPM exam I guess? It was so long back then. It was a sold-out concert and it was really crazy, a lot of people were buying the tickets even though it was in a crazily high price!

Anyway, after my Student Council meeting (I actually went home early cuz need to prepare lol), after dolling up a lil, I went to KL Convention Centre with Madeline! We claimed our tickets at the ticket booth, and the queue is CRAZY as well =,=




Used some of our free time to snap some pics outside the venue lolol.

Didn't really took any pics inside the venue because of the lightnings, and I'm quite far from the stage HAHAHA. But his concert WAS AMAZING! His voice is superb and damn, i have no regrets on attending his concert. His guitar skills, rap skills, singing skills, WOAH. I am damn damn impressed although I'm not his super fans :p 

The concert started at 8:30pm sharp, and I guess it started a little earlier than 8:30pm lol. Which is very nice coz we don't have to wait till we are all exhausted. Most of the fans are teens, and adults, a lot of angmos HAHAHA. Everyone was super enjoying his music, and it's really really nice and comfortable. Though my legs were gonna break coz I'm too tired!!!


 Selfie after the concert has ended!



And we met Daphne Charice too!!! 
Honestly she was the one who introduced Ed Sheeran's songs to me, indirectly hahaha. 
She's like his super duper big fan and always had his song covers, 
that's why i had such interest on his music! 
Thank you Daphne :D


Anyway, I've made a simple video for Ed Sheeran's Live in KL!!!! Do watch it and give the video a thumbs up and subscribe to my channel ;)

Cosmetics haul from Korea

Hello guys!! This post is gonna be the cosmetics haul that I got recently all the way from Korea. I didn't actually went to Korea to get them, my friend's relatives kindly purchased it for us! It's so nice of her!!! Thank you so much again ;D



It isn't a HUGE haul because I got a lot from my last trip to Korea already. But my hands were too itchy and too tempted to not buy, lol... Since it's an awesome opportunity to purchase!! It's really hard (or it's impossible) to get cheap Korean cosmetics in Malaysia. The prices are normally double the original price, wth, and I don't wanna waste my money on that :P

So, here we go!

The Face Shop Sebum Control 
Price : 11,920 KRW (after discount)

I think it's quite crucial to apply sunblock before we apply makeup! This product is highly recommended and I've started using it as well. I really love it because it isn't very oily when it is applied on my face. The price isn't very expensive for a good sunblock too! Definitely a good buy. HAHAHA



Etude House V-Line Slim Maker
Price: 14,000 KRW

There is a brush provided together in the package. But I didn't use the brush provided, I used my own brush lolol! Anyway, I really love this as well, because they have bronzer and highlighter together in one product! Damn nice!!!



Innisfree Creamy Tint Lip Mousse (Number 3)
Price: 10,000 KRW

I got shade 3 for this lip tint because it's one of their best seller of the whole series! Unfortunately, I think it doesn't really suit my daily makeup because it's too reddish T_T Apart from that, it's quite dry on the lips as well :/ I only use it whenever I have a grander dinner lolol!

Anyway, here's the colors for reference if you're interested in getting it :D



Below are all the hauls I got from Banila Co.! Banila Co is slightly more expensive compared to the mainstream brands like Etude House, Innisfree, Nature Republic etc.. But their packaging and design is really cute and I just can't help myself from purchasing them lolol.

Banila Co It Moist Seoul Tint in Lacquer 
Shade: #2 (JIHYO Pink)
Price: 14,000 KRW

I fell in love with the packaging when I first saw it on videos and pictures, omg. And the cutest thing is they even used JIHYO's name as the product's shade color because she's their brand's ambassador! Special thing of this lip tint is that it can be used as a blusher, though I haven't try it before...


Banila Co Eye Liner S Brown
Price: 12,000 KRW




Banila Co Multi Eye Palette Shadow (Fall in Seoul)
Price: 28,000 KRW

There are 6 colors as shown on the eyeshadow palette! I really love the colors because they are really natural, fits daily natural makeup a lot hahaha. They have another set of eyeshadow palette which is another 6 different colors, but that one doesn't fit my taste as this one does. LOLLL! Anyway, I really liked this product :D



Banila Co Clean it Zero
Price: 18,000 KRW

This is one of the most famous product of Banila Co! It's a makeup remover that can remove basically everything you have on your face LOLLL! This is such a superb product, the quality is uhhhhmazing! They have a little spatula inside the product as well, just apply and massage your face for roughly 30 seconds and basically all the makeup will be vanished! DAMN COOL. I have to get this after I've finished using lolol.


So yeap here's all the latest korean cosmetics haul I got recently. I'm really satisfied with all of them lolol. And I've been using each of them every time. For more inquiries or reviews about any products above, do drop me a comment below! :D

Thanks for reading! :D

#KOREA: Planning your trip to Korea?

Hey! So as I thought of blogging about my itinerary when I went to Korea, I might as well blog some of the useful informations that I've used while planning my trip!

For people who don't know, my trip to Korea was the first time I planned it myself, and it was a free and easy tour. Before that, most of my trips were planned by my mother, and we always had a tour guide by then. But considering last year was my 2nd time visiting Korea, I wanted to try planning itineraries myself. It was ain't an easy task! You really have to get a lot of useful informations while planning your trip if you don't wanna end up wasting time wandering at the streets looking muddled. 

1. Air Tickets
Basically I took AirAsia X and I bought premium seats for MYR2,700+ round trip. My mom suggested me to get premium seats from AirAsia instead of economy seats for the other planes because the price difference is not big. Of course, buy early = more cheap (normally)! Don't buy tickets just before you leave, it's gonna cost a bomb! Unless you're really lucky to get cheap tickets.

2. Accommodation
I stayed in a guesthouse that was located in Chungjeongno! It was really convenient as it is located around 3-5 minutes from the subway station. Although the rooms are quite small, overall I had a pleasant stay with my family. The price isn't really pricey as well, but be sure to book EARLY. If you do bookings in the eleventh hour, normally the rooms are gonna be fully-booked.

When I was staying in their guesthouse, there was a guy working there. He was really friendly and helpful! Just head over to ask the directions or attractions, he will help you out! Mostly guesthouses are really tourist-friendly.

Name of the guesthouse: Bangrang Hostel
Location: Chungjeongno (near to Chungjeongno subway station)
Website: (FB) // (WEB)





Other than this guesthouse, you can go find other more guesthouses from Agoda, or Bookings.com. Normally guesthouses don't cost that expensive compared to hotels. I strongly recommend to search for guesthouses that are located near to subway stations as it will be really convenient if you're having a free and easy tour. (You don't wanna carry all your shopping stuffs and walking a long way back to your guesthouse!)

3. Transport
Speaking about transport, I would definitely say Korea's subway is DA BOMB. Especially I live near the subway station, it was reallllyyyyy convenient taking the subway! The lines are a lot and complicated, but if you've downloaded this app and make use of it, I'm pretty sure everything will be fine!

Apps name: Korea Subway 



Just key in the stations of your choice and "Search". It'll come up with these, and they'll show you how many stations, and whether if you have to change the lines of the subway! It's really easy and convenient to use.

This is the T-Money that is needed to go on subways, buses, and a lot of public transports. I got mine from the airport's convenient store. It is actually available in any convenient store! It costed only 2,500won! Just simply reload the card using the machines at the subway station~

4. Food
For food, hmm, I'm not a good food hunter T_T I always wanted to eat something but ended up can't find the place, LOL! There are loads of good food in Korea, just simply hop in a restaurant and voila!

5. Planning your itinerary
I actually bought a travel guide book to plan my itinerary. Although I can't say it wasn't helpful at all, at least it gave me some directions on where to start! I also went to the Korea Tourism Organisation Malaysia which was located at Menara Hap Seng to ask for more informations about my trip.

You can get quite amount of brochures, maps of Korea, and the discount vouchers from them.

Address: Menara Hap Seng, Suite 7-03, 7th Floor, Jalan P Ramlee, WP 50250, Kuala Lumpur.
Contact: 03 - 2143 9000

Then, of course, read a lot of websites, and blogs about people's itinerary and try to create a new one for your own! Search for websites about Korea's top attractions, or maybe some famous and extraordinary cafes or places recommended by bloggers! ;) I'm pretty sure you'll get a lot of info from those! Coz I did! :D

6. Shopping in Korea
I would say if you're hunting for cosmetics, makeup and skincare products. Myeongdong will be definitely the best place to shop! Especially they have a lot of salesgirls who can speak in Chinese, compared to the other branches. Though I prefer Hongdae compared to Myeongdong when it comes to cafes, and chilling. For me Myeongdong is really packed! Especially on weekends or festive season!


That's all I thought it would come in handy if you're about to plan your trip to Korea! Just prepare an adventurous heart, and learn some Korean language before going there, ahaha! The people there will be pleased to hear you communicating in Korean with them! Lastly, enjoy! :)
