Lovely Hua Shop is a home-based eCommerce florist with extremely affordable price and fresh flowers! They have so many options to chose from, I was legit spoilt for choice. They have really pretty Pink Gerberas which you don't often see at other florists?! They also had really cute cotton box bouquet but I can't just chose what I think is cute, so I ended up going for the sunflower boxy. Also because I REEEEAALLY love sunflowers!!


The bouquet came exactly the way it should! So if you are worry about the saga that went on during Valentine's Day with some other florists, rest assure because at Lovely Hua Shop, they strive to deliver their bouquets on time and in good condition! (Funfact: They had successfully delivered more than a hundred orders during this year's Valentine's Day despite being only a home-based florist!) The nice people at Lovely Hua Shop also believes that everyone deserves a bouquet that looks exactly like what they ordered. I honestly cannot imagine the disappointment people felt when they received a bouquet that looks different, :(


Accompanied with two cute pink roses, I was greeted with a whole box of sunshine and sweetness when I opened my door. Mom was surprised because it came early, hahaha. Well, better early than late!

You can make your purchases over at their website, and checkout reviews from customers at their Carousell, or on their Facebook Page. They even have snack bouquet, hahahahhaha (real cute!)

It's Father's Day this weekend! How about getting a bouquet for your daddy? I feel like people don't usually give men flowers because it's too girly or something, hahhaha but hey men deserves flowers too! Do check out Lovely Hua Shop because their prices are really extremely reasonable and affordable. Mostly priced below S$50! (I was shookth-)
Lovely Hua Shop still operates as per normal during this Circuit Breaker period, don't worry about not being able to get your flowers. Stay safe this Covid period, everyone!

I've been a fan of Sudio true wireless earphones ever since I tried out their past models. And again, the Sudio ETT did not disappoint! Known for their signature sleek design with premium audio quality, the ETT comes with a major upgrade this time with Active Noise Cancellation and Wireless Charging. I'll touch more on that later on because I wanna rave a little about their color options for this model, so here's 5 reasons why I really love Sudio's earphones!

#1 Their sleek design and colors


Chose something darker this time for a change. I had the previous two models in white (because I am basic af, HAHA. And passed the Blue one to my husband), but I was awed when I saw the Navy green one for Sudio ETT series! Wish my photos did more justice to their crazy sleek design, but my camera had been in a cranky mode these days, sigh. So here's some really hi-res shot of the other color options they have!


#2 Insane battery life!

This isn't just from me, but all my friends who are using Sudio Wireless earphones swear their loyalty to Sudio's insane battery life. This is one of the ultimate reason why my friends kept upgrading their Sudios.

With 6 hours play time, 4 hours with Active Noise Cancellation. The total battery life goes up to 30 hours and is able to carry 4 extra charges with the carrying case. Bruh, this is a 10 hours upgrade from their predecessor, Sudio FEM. Here comes the best part: Sudio ETT comes with wireless charging features and USB-C fast-charging function! (Only 15 mins charging time for 1 hour play time. How are you not sold yet.)


#3 It's Splash Proof!


Exercise? No sweat, literally. With Sudio ETT's IPX 5 water protection designed to handle all kinds of condition, you do not need to worry about perspiration or getting drenched in the rain. As I've always say, it is sweat proof, rain proof, and splash proof! Note: It is NOT water proof, do not try soaking it in water.


#4 Epic microphones and Transparency mode along with clear sound quality.

This is definitely a concern for me because when I do my streams, I'd need a proper microphone that doesn't pick up white noise, has to be consistent and definitely not something that I have to hold to my mouth like a mouthpiece all the time. Sudio ETT has dual-microphone with transparency mode activated during phone calls for enhanced sound quality. I don't know how useful is this with 全名Party, let me give it a try and I'll let you know, xD

The thing about Sudio is probably their sound quality consistency. I realize how every new models has a slight sound difference. I don't really know how to explain this to you, but Sudio ETT has a fully sound compared to their predecessor, Sudio FEM. Also with their new Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) function, Sudio ETT is perfect for your daily commutes and online meetings. It cancels out the white noise and while retaining your music quality. (Please not that it does not fix bad sound quality uploaded onto websites such as YouTube.) It's kinda like how you play a soothing Beethoven while watching the world burn. Escapade done right. Sayonara chaos.


#5 Automatic pairing

Need I say more? Who's annoyed with pairing your damned phone to the speakers or earpiece all the time? Hands up.

It's freaking annoying how I try to turn on music to only realize, "Oops, I did not pair my earphones." Sometimes I just wanna secretly play some songs to avoid the chatters and complaints you know. Can't you let me do it discreetly! Okay, I don't wanna be reminded of that one time this happened, lel. Not gonna happen again because I upgraded to Sudio True Wireless, HAHA.

Okay, okay. I'll cut to the chase. Here's the part you guys been waiting for; Sudio comes with 18-months International Warranty, and FREE Worldwide Shipping up to your doorsteps! This part of them has never changed since the first time I collaborated with them. Love it.

You also get an exclusive Sudio tote bag for free with every purchase from sudio.com from now until the end of July, or while stock lasts.

很多人說我變了

我不是變了 我只是發現 在這個世界上沒有任何人比我自己重要
以前的我只要是朋友我就一定幫到底 不管是什麼事 只要是我能做到的 我一定幫
就算我很累了 你不付我錢 我也無所謂 因為 朋友嘛 -

可是在我生病後我發現 這些人其實都不是朋友 我對他們而言只是個利用的工具而已

所以現在的我 撿回了一條沒什麼用的小命
已經失去了很多 也不見了很多

所以我不可能再一次連自己最後的尊嚴和時間都失去給這些不在乎我的人身上

在這個世界 只有我自己 。 最重要

I got to paint and customize my own Kalimba with Kalimba Hub the other day! Brought along the husband to have some fun after being stuck at home for months.

In case you're not familiar with Kalimba, it is actually a westernized version of the African traditional instrument, Mbira. Chords are very similar to playing the piano but it goes in reverse! It is very easy to pick up and creates really soothing, tingly sounds!


Of course it's not that easy to be playing like April Yang the moment you get your hands on the Kalimba. But it can be done with lotsa practice hahaha. It's pretty much like playing O2Jam with your thumbs!

It was a 3 hours workshop consisting of painting your own Kalimba shell, then fixing in the Kalimba keys, last but not the least, the tuning of your Kalimba! The course also gives a really simple beginners' score of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, and then the teachers will teach you how to play it. By the end of the class you can hear everyone getting excited on their own Kalimba trying to play their Twinkies Stars XD


It's been a while since I painted, so I let my paint bug go loose and did my own snowfield! Wanted to achieve the aurora effect but this was so impromptu, I didn't want to stress myself with all the paint mixing and preparations, hahaha.


Here's me lining up my keys while waiting for the paint to dry. You got to make sure you line your keys correctly otherwise once it's screwed in, you're screwed. (pun intended)


Le husband's umm... 'Roadtrip'. He named it 'Roadtrip', hahahhahahaha. &my 'Snowfield'! Singapore too hot ah, one has gotta dream to live in order to live the dream yknow.


The teachers will then walk around to help you screw in the Kalimba keys before tuning it for you. They will then teach you how the tuning works so you can tune it yourself with the tuning hammer if it goes out of tune after you go home!


And here's my finished Kalimba! Trust me when I say you'll get hooked onto learning how to play this. This is now my new road trip necessity! Prolly why Kimmy named his Kalimba, 'Roadtrip', hahahahaha.

You can sign up for the Kalimba Workshop at their website. It was overall a really fun and chill workshop for both of us, and we had a lot of fun! I would really recommend for parents to bring their kids along for this though, I'm sure the children will have so much fun painting their own Kalimbas! Or a different kinda date-out surprise for your other halves? Hehehe.

Limited slots available for their March workshop, hurry over and RSVP, don't miss it!

So happy to be able to try out the latest addition to Sudio's range of wireless earphones, Sudio FEM! Comes in 4 different colors, Sudio kept it's iconic sleek and modern design with a touch of elegance once again.

This time, engineered with four microphones that provide ambient noise reduction, the Fem earphones provide you with complete wireless freedom. Calls are now clearer and better sounding with the Fem's 4 microphones system. I personally really love this because it brought my mobile gaming experience to a whole new level. I can now hear my opponents hurling vulgarities at me loud and clear, HAHA.

I am just kidding. It keeps me from screaming at the top of my lungs now when I am on discord while playing CoD or PUBG with the new Sudio FEM.


The Fem comes in a really sleek and compact portable charging case which entitles you to 2 additional charges of 20 hours of battery life in just 6 hours single charge. That's 60 hours worth of battery life in just 6 hours?! I personally haven't charge my Sudio for a second time since receiving it 2 weeks ago, prolly cause my usage isn't as heavy. Well, it definitely saves a lot of hassle with charging extra appliances with the additional battery life in it's own personal case!


A feature brought forth from it's predecessor, the Sudio FEM is also combined with a graphene driver, individual automatic pairing and IPX 5 water protection. It is sweat proof, rain proof, and splash proof! Note: It is NOT water proof, do not soak it in water to try.


Equipped with touch controls, it is also both Siri and Google assistant compatible! This is what I love the most about the Sudio FEM! I can use it both on my MacBook, as well as Razer phone. Hehehe


Here's the best part; Sudio comes with 18-months International Warranty, and FREE Worldwide Shipping!
They also have CNY Promotion going on right now: Free special edition CNY gift packaging + crossbody pouch + buy any 2 earphones and get additional 10% OFF on top of promo code: "VIVIANTIAN15"!

Promo ends: 14 February 2020. So if you are looking for a Valentine's Day gift, why not hop on #teamSudio?

Located around Taman Seri Austin area, is this small town called Spring Labs. Filled with themed cafes and nice photo spots. An extremely quiet location filled with mini surprises. Maybe I was there too early, but there really wasn't much people and parking was fuss-free. The cafe that I've been wanting to visit is called Good Morning, 早.尚好! How freaking cute. Good Morning serves you nice, toasty and savoury sandwiches with runny sunny side ups, and many many more.


Me being the burden obviously requested for a fully cooked egg on my chicken patty with peanut butter, hais. It was nice until I bit into my perfectly well done egg yolk and shed a teeny bit of tear.


We also ordered their new year special; Bakkwa Pork Floss Wrap. The fillings were great, but not so much on the wrap. It's a bit too flour-y, would have went well if they used crepes or prata hahaha. They also have pork cutlet sandwich, and some pumpkin sandwich thingy which actually sounds pretty enticing. They do serve other food as well, such as braised pork rice, curry chicken, yadah-yadah. The sandwiches were overall okay, and worth the visit but not something I will queue 2 hours at customs for. I'll probably try other food the next time I visit because I really love the vibe around this place, mehehe.

After that we just drove around Eco Floral and have a look around the area. Turns out they have a lot of nice cafes here, it wasn't just Spring Labs!


Drove down to Desaru before heading back to Mt Austin for lunch at JWC! JWC is yet another really popular boutique restaurant among Singaporeans. I've seen plenty of my friends visiting, but me being the lazy bum I am, I rarely go to JB just to do cafe hop. :x


Extremely nice industrial interior and cosy af. Smell of coffee aroma hits you almost instantly the moment you step into this 2 storeys container cafe. They are famous for their house brews, so don't forget to try out their coffee when you are there. I'm an idiot, I ordered cold brew. Don't ask me why. (Prolly too tired by then, and all I wanted was a nice cuppa iced coffee)


I honestly don't recall much about this place except that the basil pasta is extremely good, and it's really cosy. Quite a great place to chill after a long ass road trip. Really didn't feel like leaving the cafe but no where else is better than home, hahahaha. So we finally dragged our asses back to Singapore at around 4PM. (We headed out at 6:45AM. Seriously have no idea how Kimmy can tahan driving for 10 hours.)


The trip was nonetheless fulfilling. Better than being stuck in the tiny red dot doing the same old stuff every weekend. Can't wait for more trip in the coming months, hehe. Great start to 2020!
