Got my lashes done at Perky Lash last weekend and I've got to say I love it, so, so much. This isn't my first time getting eyelash extensions but it is my first time trying out laser processed lashes, and also it's been a while since I got to doll up because I was hospitalized and all.. my last lash extensions was during my solemnization back in September, omg. So I was pretty stoked when I went over to get my lash done, mehehehe.


I chose to do Natural Featherlite Lashes so I don't have to put on make-up or anything to pull it off. Angel, my artist of the day gave me C-curls, with a mixture of 10mm ~ 11mm single lash.


I left my lash design entirely to her, letting her decide what suits me better. I was initially super worried because due to my medication side effects, I wasn't sure if I am even suitable to be doing all these treatments so quickly. (Medicinal steroid weakens your immune system, so I have to be really careful not to get bacteria/viral infection until my dose is cut to a safe range.) But all tools used at Perky Lash are sanitised before and after the treatment to ensure the hygiene standards. Their products are also FDA approved, so it's really gentle and safe even for people with sensitive eyes, lucky me!

Angel was extremely gentle the entire time I actually dozed off and had a really good nap. There was no feeling at all it's as if she wasn't doing my lash, and when I woke up, she was almost done, LOL. Angel's really friendly and adorable, hahaha. We had a really good chat after that while she continued on to complete my lashes.

Perky Lash uses Laser Processed Lashes which would last 25% longer than non-laser processed ones. Their lashes are also super duper light, it's practical weightless. It felt like there was nothing at all! Which is also why I was super surprised when I woke up and felt like there was nothing on my lids but Angel said we were almost done, hahaha.

At the end of every session, they used a special bonding serum to seal the glue so that the lashes last longer! 1 week into the extensions, and still looking as good as new!

Anyway, I went for my 2nd review today! No consultation, just a blood test to see if my potassium count dropped. Last week I had my first medical review with my doc to check if I am adjusting well to the new medication. To my horror, my potassium count was waaaayyyy above average and I had to go on a strict low-potassium diet to see if it was the meds that caused the problem, or was it my diet. And guess what. Just the day before, I basically ate pure potassium meals for the entire day!!

Broccoli, potato, lady finger, oats, tomatoes, kiwi, yadah-yadah, hahahahaha.

I didn't even know. And they are all my favorite food(?!) So I was barred from having too much of my favorite stuff until they find out whether it was the meds or my diet. I swear to god, it was a torture. I had to avoid my potatoes and broccoli, but whatever I can think of whenever it's lunch/dinner time are potato and broccoli.......

So.... I was given potassium suppressers and took another 3 weeks worth of medication until my next consultation. But well. I SURVIVED!!

And my blood test turned out good this time! Potassium count is stable, and I can finally have my pooootaaaatoeeeessss!! That aside, inflammation has also gone down, liver is showing pretty good signs. Doc is looking to cut my prednisolone dosage in 4 weeks time, then I can finally get out of 50mg/day dose! The high dose steroid's side effects are catching up real fast, it really scares me. I am starting to put on weight on my cheeks, and my wounds are starting to heal reeeeeally slowly... skin's thinning and peeling real bad too. If this continues I think I'mma become a south african rain frog in no time. XD

Of course, side effects will cease along with the decrease of prednisolone dosage. Just 4 more weeks to go, and I can start tapering! I can't wait! Alrighty, that's all for now. 3 weeks to next appointment, hope I can start tapering a week earlier instead, and start getting life back on track once again. I'm so sick of being unproductive, :(

Was gifted with a pair of Sudio Wireless Bluetooth earpiece some time back for review and I must say I couldn't have loved it more. What I usually look for in earphones is the sound quality, comfort and then the aesthetics. I must be lying if aesthetics doesn't matter. I once spent 60 euros just on a Swarovski ear phone jacket for my iPhone 4S earpiece, HAHAHHAHAHA #iwasmad

Introducing the successor of Sudio Nivå Bluetooth Headphones, Sudio Tolv!


Hone as the True Wireless Headphones, the Sudio Tolv is a major upgrade from it's predecessor. It now hold 7 hours battery life, as well as 4 extra charges up to 35 hours standby life on it's portable charging case for your earbuds. So you don't have to worry about it's battery life anymore because it can actually last a reeeeally long time.


Tolv also features a new graphene driver this time round, giving you top notch and clear sound quality at all times. This I'd really have to commend. Tolv is amazing for an entry level earphones! Of course, if you are an audiophile looking for professional earpiece that allows you to pick out slight change of tune in your instruments, this isn't for you.

Pairing of the earphones is also now so much less of a hassle because it automatically pairs with your phone! No more holding of buttons or whatsoever and waiting for it to search and pair.

One major upgrade from their predecessor that I really love about Tolv is how it no longer just play the audio on one side of the earphone when I am using mic anymore. Because they now have microphones on both sides of the earbuds! It felt so weird having just one on the Sudio Nivå. Now I can hear my friends loud and clear while playing ml, hahahahahah.


Like the Sudio Nivå, Sudio Tolv features a single multipurpose button on each earbud to control your music and phone calls. Because it’s a single button, there are quite a bit of secret tapping going on. The controls may take quite a bit of getting used to.

Single Tap: Play/Pause
Double Tap Left: Previous Track
Double Tap Right: Next Track
Triple Tap Left: Reduce Volume
Triple Tap Right: Increase Volume

The Sudio Tolv has a redesigned portable charging case with matte rubber finishing. Comes in 5 different colors, these babies are deffo a die for.


With all these new upgrades in sight, Sudio Tolv is definitely living up to its name of being the True Wireless Headphones. You can purchase the latest Sudio Tolv here at their website and enjoy free shipping worldwide for your purchase!

Sudio also has Summer Promotion going on right now:
Free Sudio tote bag with every earphones/headphones purchase on Sudio.com from 2 May - 31 July!

Additionally, you can also get 15% off your purchase using this code: viviantianTolv

Hurry up, because stocks are clearing fast!

It all started off with a fever that never went away. I had actually gotten a flu vaccine in preparation for my Taiwan trip, but 2 days later I was down with really bad cough, and fever of 38°C-39°C that wouldn’t subside. My immune system has always been good, and was never the kind to fall sick easily. So when I got a fever, along with weird rashes and joint pain, I knew something was not right. So after a week of panadols, I saw the GP and GP thought it was just some mild allergy reaction. I’ve never had any allergies my whole life, so wthell(?) He gave me some meds, told me to go back for a review 2 days later to see if the rash would subside. Fast forward 2 days later, condition did not improve, GP suspect I was down with dengue and told me to go A&E to get a blood test because his lab isn't open on Sundays.

Checked myself in at NTFGH A&E for a blood test, and I’ve been imprisoned in the hospital ever since. Blood tests came back negative, I was ruled out Malaria, Dengue, Chikugunya, Zika, and whatever the hell you could rule out. But I still had fever, and thus I was admitted. Suffered a good 3 days due to negligence of the nurses there(don't really wanna elaborate, but it was terrible) before I demanded a discharge so I could make it to my Taiwan trip on the 20 April. At this point, the doctors from NTFGH still didn’t have any diagnosis. Hell not even a prognosis, tsk. But I was feeling better, and the fever did not spike, so I thought ok lah, just panadol if anything happen loh.

Well, as life will always fuck you up at your best moments, I relapsed on 19 April with crazy weird petechiae rash over my limbs in the shape of snake &ladders and was rushed to TTSH A&E. (Yes, I missed my trip, sigh)



When I got to TTSH A&E, doctor who saw me instantly told me I have to be admitted, again. Blahblahblah procedures not important, fast forward after checking in at NCID, I had to go through tons and tons of blood tests and biopsies to find out what exactly was wrong with me. I took a total of 54 tubes of blood and blood cultures, 1 bone marrow biopsy and 1 skin biopsy till date. It took them 8 days of exclusion tests for the diagnosis to be confirmed. Because AOSD is a disease of exclusion, meaning you have to rule out all possible viral/bacteria infections before you can conclude that it is AOSD. Good lord, that 8 days was literally living hell. I finally understood why morphine is god sent.


I had random spiking fever of 39-41°C every day, along with swollen joints and muscle aches. It was so bad I couldn’t even open my mouth to eat, or swallow my saliva. Even adjusting myself on bed when I sleep was painful af. I couldn’t lift my phone, I was basically bed-ridden and needed assistance with everything. I got so depressed, I was crying so hard at one point because I started feeling so useless and hopeless. On the bright side, I LOST ALMOST 10KG HAHAHA. Okay, it was not fun not being able to do anything and feeling pain with every inch you take. That 8 days passed really fast though, because I was on so much drugs I was basically in a trance state almost 24/7. I could barely recall what happened throughout the day, but I deffo remember every inch of pain I felt throughout my body. It was not fun.

Scariest part of all these was the bone marrow biopsy. Good fucking lord, I literally felt my bone getting scraped and drilled through before my bone marrow got sucked out like tulang. On the other hand, I got to try morphine for the first time ever and had the best high of my life. It was such an odd feeling. It was a really small dose of 10mg, and lasted for just 30 minutes.


Good thing it didn't leave a traumatic impression towards bone marrow biopsy because I was so high, bad thing I could feel every single sensation that happened during the procedure, except I don't feel pain. Okay I felt pain when the senior doctor decided to request for an extra tube of bone marrow, and my surgeon went to extract it from an area without anaesthesia. I don't even wanna think about it.


My doctors initially suspected it was Lupus before my skin biopsy came back and ruled that out. I am so ever thankful really, because Lupus is so much worse than AOSD. I was eventually diagnosed AOSD, and got so fucking confused. I am STILL confused and don’t know how to feel about this condition because one-liner, you are literally so healthy, you’re sick. My body betrayed me. AOSD is basically a condition where your immune system is so active, it attacks even the good body cells. So right now my immune system is on ecstasy, partying its way outta my body. More happening than my life, man.

Day 19 of vacay at TTSH, docs have finally found meds that could control my condition and I am finally seeing the sun tomorrow. It was a lot of trial and error because the condition is so rare, and it differs from every individual. I’ve had 410mg dosage of steroids/day at one point because the fever was raging and my immune system was out of control. Steroids was the only solution to suppress my immune system, so I don't get a relapse. The doctors were trying to overload my immune system in attempt to crash it, before giving me small dosage as maintenance. Damn, that was a good high tho. I was so energetic that day, I had problem sleeping. I realized I've been professionally drugged for almost 20+ days now, hahahahaha legally high for now. The side effects though, really isn't something I would wanna prolong any longer.

So ye! Pretty much what happened for the last 3 weeks of my life. Had a short vacay at TTSH instead of Taiwan. Doctors are looking to cut my steroids intake right now, and replace it with another type of medication. (Fucking steroids making me shed like a snake) And in order for me to be discharged, my body has to adapt to the oral medication they are giving me. Which, my scumbag immune system doesn't wanna take, and thus dragged the hospitalization till this day. Every time I relapse, I get a 3 days extension, smh. Things are looking good now, docs are looking to let me go home tomorrow as long as my blood test turns out well.

It's been a long 24 days fight with this disease now, still feels like yesterday when I visited the GP thinking I have dengue. Rheumatology dept nurse came over and sat me down some time last week, and ran me through about life with AOSD and steroids, as if I am going through some kinda marriage counselling shit. It’s fucking weird. But ye, it was necessary. There were a lot to take note, like things I could eat, things I couldn’t. How is life with steroids as long term medication, and yadah. Also the precautions I have to take because of the steroids suppressing my immune system. Places I could go, places I couldn't and I have to take 6 months off work and avoid crowds until my body fully adapt to the new medication. There will be plenty of medical reviews in the upcoming months to keep my condition in check, and lots of restrictions when it comes to daily activities because my muscles are so weak right now. I'd have to do a bit of physio as well to strengthen my muscles after this whole fever episode.


AOSD is a lifelong disease that I'd have to live with for the rest of my life. Case to case basis, it really depends on individual. There are people who get it once, and it never comes back, there are also people who would relapse after a few years. There are also patients who have to live with it forever, with medication to control the disease. I still don't know how to feel about this whole condition, honestly. I am right now a living time bomb that may drop dead any time, but this disease really isn't deadly until it is. It is definitely going to change my life, because if I get a relapse, I'll be down for months. Literally months. It's gonna inconvenient my life so much, I honestly have no idea how am I gonna deal.

But that's okay, I won't die just yet, I'll eventually find a way and better soon enough once the medication sets.

Thank you so much for all the well wishes y'all been sending over, I really appreciate it. I was so depressed the first few days here in TTSH because I was bed bound and couldn't do anything. THEN RANDOMLY GOT DIAGNOSED WITH WEIRD DISEASE SOMEMORE. Also the fact that there is no cure, means I'll never be well again. So every time someone tells me "get well soon" I start to feel so sad for myself, LOL. But I will be better since we've finally found meds that could control this disease. And I really need a "Get out soon" more than anything else right now, hahahhahahhahahhaha.


Aite, that's all for now. Undergoing factory reset right now, I'mma walk out of this hospital with a brand new operating system installed! Hope I've answered most of the questions y'all been asking! Leave a comment if you've anymore questions you're curious about, I'll reply later on! Thanks for dropping by, ^^

Here's a brief idea in case you've no idea what is Floral Garage's Doggy series about; they've actually collaborated with Oasis Second Chance Animal Shelter Ltd (OSCAS) to bring awareness to shelter animals, helping them to find a second home. And because OSCAS is a charity and non-profitable organization, they do not earn any profits to keep the shelter running.

Continuing with the success that Doggy had with Animal Lovers League collaboration, Floral Garage is inspired to create another new product to support shelter dogs and help OSCAS to continue their part in giving these strays a proper place to stay until they get a second home.

Here's what Floral Garage has up for grab:


A pot full of love in the shape of a maltese. Yassss, you read it right, this arrangement was specially designed to form a cute little maltese to front the pot!! Who would have thought you could do that with flowers. I mean like, flowers are so vibrant and colorful, who would have thought of creating doggos out of it. Not saying dogs are not vibrant but it's actually pretty weird to have a red/blue/purple pup, nahmean?

The best part? Part of the proceeds from this product will be donated to OSCAS. So you'll get to put a smile on the animals' smile while you bring on the sunshine for your loved ones! You can check out Doggy2 over here and send the love on its way to a fella doggo slave~ mehehehehe


Do join us and help these shelter dogs to give them a second chance. Help us make a difference to all of the rescued dogs in OSCAS!
Thank you so much Floral Garage once againnnnn!

Long story short, June solemnization did not happen, and neither did Kimmy propose (Most of my friends were like, NO! DON'T MARRY WITHOUT A PROPOSAL!!), so we pushed back our dates to 30 September 2018. Well our key collection was pushed to next year's first quarter anyway, so lucky us!

Preparations is also undergoing right now. We booked a lounge at Raffles Town Club for our ROM ceremony, and had gotten my gown customized by Yulia. I swear Yulia is amazing, not sugar coating my words just because she is my sponsor but because she really made my dream came true! I first met her last November to discuss about gown customizations, at that point I wasn't even engaged yet hahaha. I just had a BTO coming which confirms the fact that I will get married some time this year. So being a girl, I was extremely ambitious with my wedding gown and had all sorts of ideas before I even knew what wedding I had actually wanted.

So I told Yulia, I want a dark dress for my gown, with glittery galaxy prints to it. It has to look cute, but classy too. And guess what? In early July, I received the first photo of my dress and I was blown away.


Yulia actually hand painted the prints can you believe it!! Now I can't wait for the rest of my gowns to arrive hahaha.

Gowns aside, me and kimmy had also thought of getting door gifts for my guests during the ROM. Then again, it is going to be a closed ceremony for just my immediate family, and most people don't give gifts during ROM right? Hahahhaha.

To be honest I don't really know if we are ready for the ceremony. Kimmy has yet gotten his gown, we have yet found a photographer for our ceremony... (Still contemplating between videographer and photographer.)

Location is set, solemnizer is set, food and time is set.... Yet to visit the printing shop for the invitations, and I will start working tomorrow.

Time is ticking and I feel like I still have plenty to do, yet I don't really have much to do.

Guess I should make up a check list soon just in case I miss out anything.....
