Greetings from Sunny Malaysia!

Greetings from sunny Penang, Malaysia!

I’ve been back for about a week now, and it’s been lovely. Just thought I’d update you on a little of what I’ve been up to the past week.

Updates and Musings:

– I’ve been eating. A lot. Yeah, so what else is new? ๐Ÿ˜› Since my aunt and uncle were visiting from the US, we’ve been eating out every single meal. And that includes breakfast. It’s bloody darn difficult to abstain because, let’s face it, I very rarely have the perseverance to stay away from food. A few days of eating out has given me really bad stomachache for days. Now that they’ve left for the US, I’m looking forward to simple oats for breakfast and eating in once more.

Malaysian Food

– For every holiday, I’ve always brought more clothes than necessary because I don’t want to be stuck having clothes in the laundry. This time, for some reason, I brought very little clothes back to Malaysia. I guess I could buy from here if I wanted, and then I forgot that Malaysian sizes = anorexic sizes. Everyone’s so thin here. I can’t even wear a bloody XL. GRRR.

Christmas in Malaysia

Christmas in Malaysia

Happy Monday lovelies!

By the time you’re reading this, I’ve already landed in Malaysia. I’m probably eating char koay teow or chicken rice (I’ll be thinking of you, Tina!) and sipping my favourite kopi peng (iced white coffee) now, but since this post is scheduled, who knows eh? ๐Ÿ˜›

Posts will be very sporadic during this time, although I do hope to be able to tear away from the food and shopping to post something. It’s a good time for me to recharge my blogging batteries as well, which is highly needed, and to come up with new topics and stories for Beautyholics Anonymous. One thing’s for sure though; you know I’m going to show you what I bought ๐Ÿ˜‰

I can’t wait to see my family and friends again. It’s going to be awesome, spending quality time with them and celebrating Christmas together.

I’m going to miss you all but I’ll see you in a month! ๐Ÿ˜€

Fluoro-Summery Nails with Ulta3

Ulta3 nail polishes are what I call tiny treats in a bottle. They have a huge variety of colours (to date, they have 87 colours!), and you can pick them up along with mints and paracetamol at the pharmacy for a little pick-me-up. Not that I’ll be slapping on nail polish when I’m not feeling well, but like makeup, it’s a little something pretty to cheer me up and look forward to when I’m out of the flu funk.

I received four of these Ulta3 nail polishes in the ABBW goodie bag a couple of months ago. My first thought was “woah these are bright. Fluorescent nails? I haven’t had them since I was 15!” These were definitely a trip down pimple-face memory lane ๐Ÿ˜›

Here, we have Mojito, Tangelo, Frangipani and Tahitian Lime.
