Complain about Sephora

I want to complain/rant about Sephora. I bought a Laneige Pore Control BB Cushion from Sephora during the black card member 20% sale. It cost SGD47.20. But I saw the same BB cushion on ishopchangi (www.ishopchangi.com) website for only SGD36.55. Wtf lah. The price difference is so great. I tried to do an exchange (I only bought one day before I want to exchange) but they refused to let me. I want to escalate this but seems like no one is interested. I replied to the Customer Service Staff to put me to someone who can assist me but no reply to my email. Really wtf as I do answer common mailbox enquiries and I ensure that I answer every email except duplicate ones.

Quoted from Sephora website: "We at Sephora firmly believes in doing everything we can to ensure our customers satisfaction." I don't think that they are even trying. What do they mean by ''doing everything we can''?

Ok, I shall try not to shop at Sephora! Do remember to compare prices because sometimes sale doesn't mean cheapest. I don't like to pay more for the same thing. Who does right?

I feel like I need to blog about this. Just read about Qiu Qiu's dispute with Churp Churp. Seems very serious, got court case. Sigh. I read that for the talent contract, it is auto renewed. Not sure if it is true. Like that, then how to get out of the contract? Isn't it an unfair contract then? If it is an unfair contract, then is it not enforceable? Ah yoh! Can't remember my Business Law stuff.

Actually, this is pretty scary. Really need to read carefully before signing anything. Sometimes, I just signed without reading the terms and conditions carefully when checking into a hotel for example. I feel that if a contract is unreasonable, it should not even be valid. My personal opinion only. I do like Qiu Qiu :). If only they can just settle this out of court, that will be good.

Congratulations!! Very proud and happy for Joseph Schooling and Singapore. Yay!!!

He is now the Olympics record holder for the Men's 100m butterfly event.

I have been wanting to blog more regularly but it is damn difficult. Feeling so sick of work. I really really hate the long hours at work and the heavy workload. Sigh. Sometimes, I wish that I haven't quitted my previous job. It is really not too bad. Hm.. Best is no need to work lah! Haha xD

De Yi Chinese Physician

Ok, I want to rant! I went to De Yi Chinese Physician to see my foot as it still hurt a little when I run. Think I may not have fully recovered from my sprained foot :(

Anyway, what I want to rant is.. The Chinese Physician there is weird! I sprained my foot, he massaged my waist/hip area. I stopped him coz I don't like people to touch me. It also makes no sense what right? I sprained my foot, what has it got to do with waist/hip? Although he did say something like my waist/hip should also hurt coz of the way I walk. But my foot was ok before I sprained it. Anyway, I don't really know what he was talking about but I find it really weird and inappropriate. He did bandage my foot afterwards. Shall see how my foot is..

Review - 思味筵 Si Wei Yan

*Sponsored post*

Ok, I'm really sorry for the late review. I'm such a procrastinator. I was invited to a food tasting at Si Wei Yan restaurant by Absolute PR. As you might have already known, Si Wei Yan serves Sichuan cuisine.

I had to rush to the restaurant after work (had a pretty busy day and one of my wedge's strap broke =.=). By the way, the restaurant is located at No 1 Club Street. Can take the MRT to Telok Ayer Station and walk there. It is a pretty quiet and cosy place with chic furnitures. I heard that some of the chairs (and maybe other stuff?) are shipped from China. Wow! Read from the notes given that the restaurant has 2 private rooms with a capacity of 6-10 pax and 9-14 pax.

 As I was rushing there, I only took this photo after the food tasting.

Nice ambience :)

The menu.

This is my favourite dish so far. Corn Fried with Salted Egg Yolk. Really good!

Soup, not bad. 

Sorry, I cannot remember what dish this is. 

Prawns. I'm allergic to prawns so didn't try this dish.

I also like this but cannot remember what it is called. But nice! :)

Stir Fried Pork Belly. 

 Signature BBQ Pork Ribs! Tasted pretty normal to me. Probably I'm not a big fan of pork ribs.

This is the picture in the menu. I took it in case I forgot what it is called.

Mixed Vegetables in Special Sichuan Sauce. So cute!

I'm not sure what dish this is.

Red Grouper in Si Wei Dry Chili. Not bad!

I like the teapot. 很中国风。 OMG! The fish looks scary!

If I remember correctly, this is eggplant. I also like!

 Stir Fried King Oyster Mushroom. I really like too! It's really nice!

Is this chicken feet? Anyway, it tasted really weird.

Beef Stewed in Mala Soup with Potatoes. I didn't get to try this.

OMG! I suddenly forgot what this is called.

I quite like the service and atmosphere. Can go there and try the food if you are into Sichuan dishes. 

OMG!! It is June already. I haven't been blogging conscientiously. Hm.. At least I have been keeping my Dayre pretty up to date. Come and follow me there if you have a Dayre account :) Anyway, my life hasn't been THAT exciting recently. I have been reading other people's Dayre and it seems like some people's lives are so interesting.

*Envy*

Ranting Post

Ok, I wanna rant again! I used my UOB card at Sakae Sushi so I am supposed to get a 10% discount but the staff at the Vivocity Sakae Sushi outlet said that need to spend a minimum of $60. A check on the bank's website indicated no need leh. I think he anyhow say to bluff me. WTH~!!

#rant

Feel better after ranting!

What have I been doing?

Hi, sorry for not posting for so long. I have been updating my Dayre more often than my blog as it is easier to update it while I'm traveling. I do spend quite a lot of time (in my opinion) traveling to and from work everyday.

Anyway, I have been watching 奔跑吧兄弟。 It is really nice and funny. Haha. Am getting quite engrossed in it. I wish to see Kid go on the show and 斯名牌。That will be so exciting!

Work has also been keeping me busy. There are so many things to do and I still need to finish my e-learning. Got quite a number of e-learning modules. How to have work life balance? Also need to plan my leave days. It's harder to take leave here. Like I wanna take my credit leave for Vesak Day today but was rejected. If not, I could still be sleeping in bed now and can probably update my blog later. Hee.

By the way, Diana found my Dayre one day. I didn't even know that she has a Dayre then she said that she found my Dayre through Google. Not that my Dayre has any secret or what but I didn't know that you can google for my Dayre account. Did a #priceofmakeup on my Dayre which is kinda interesting. I shall repost it here when I'm free. 

Lastly, just a photo of myself with my newly cut hair. I don't really like it that much. Boo. I prefer my straight hair!

So as I've sprained my foot, I had difficulty in getting off the bus and this auntie was trying to help me. However, she practically pushed me and I ended up hitting my head. Wtf. It's really 帮倒忙。好心没好报。Okie, I don't blame her. She's just trying to help.

OMG! Getting married is very stressful! Haiz~

By the way, I sprained my foot. Damn it!

Sorry, I haven't been updating my blog recently. Have been updating my Dayre more often. It seems like I have a lot of things to do at home. Easier to update on Dayre while I'm outside or traveling on bus/MRT. Anyway, my life hasn't been that interesting.

OMG!! I am so so tired. I just escaped from my mother's nagging. Gosh! Phew~

I was looking through my blog and realized that I keep changing my clothes. Haha.

By the way, I wanna try to do more good deeds. Accumulate more good karma. Will need to remind myself this constantly.

It is difficult. Sometimes you don't want to harm or hurt anyone but somehow other people will/may hurt or harm you. Wtf lah.

Random - I've got a new keyboard. So I am going to type a new entry here, just to test out my new keyboard. Haha. Anyway, it's just a normal keyboard. The cashier even dropped my keyboard a little while trying to pack it into the bag. But nvm. It's still working fine.

KSL Food

Went to KSL with Robin again. Just going to blog about the food we had.

 I really like the wantan me!!

 Yummy fried wantan although it's a little oily. But really nice!

Robin's Grilled Chicken.

My Hakka Fried Pork set. So-so only.

Not expensive at all, compare to Singapore. 

Gonna post about something happy :) Went on a movie date with Robin today. Yay!!

By the way, I feel like buying new shoes. Haha. KIV first lah.

It's Going To Be Hotter in Singapore

Heard from my Mum that it's going to get hotter in Singapore. Drink more water everyone. Use sunblock if you are going to be outdoor for long. In fact, I think that it's better not to be outdoor in the hot afternoon for long unless necessary. Take care!

I really wanna rant about a Sales Assistant at Watsons! Oh well. I am a very reasonable customer but I keep (somehow) meeting rude people. Maybe I shouldn't be so reasonable then they will not be so rude? Anyway, to all the bosses out there.. If you find the sales in your shop is not good, it's either you have bad/rude staff or bad/unpopular products. Unless you open your shop in a very ulu place lah.

Happy Birthday to Ah Ma!

祝您生日快乐，长命百岁，平安健康。

Happy Birthday to ME!

Jay Chou concert tickets

I get so mad when I see people selling Jay Chou concert tickets online. If they are not going then don't buy the tickets. Don't think of this way to earn other people's hard earn money. Damn annoying! Even though I wanna go watch but I just REFUSED to buy from them! I hope no one will buy from them.

I think that I have overworked. I feel so tired everyday :(

OMG!! I have exceeded my data usage again. Wtf :(

Also have Monday blues..

Chinese New Year Eve

OMG! I am so up to date with my blog. On CNY Eve, we had family reunion lunch at The Scholar Chinese Restaurant at NUSS. Don't know why I didn't take photos during lunch. Hm.. Went home to rest for awhile before meeting Robin at JEM to watch Long Long Time Ago. It is a pretty good movie. Recommend you all to go and watch. Dinner was at Indobox in JEM.

So cute!

Wore a new ''money come'' t-shirt from Giordano. Haha :P

Yums! Love the satays!

Hair Rebonding

Hair rebonding at RCS Hair Salon at KSL. I'm finally doing something to my hair. I love my straight hair, even now. The more I see it, the more I like it. Haha. Total cost is RM520. I did rebonding, before and after rebonding hair treatment and a hair cut. Wanted to cut my fringe shorter (and more layered) but the hair stylist discouraged it so.. didn't. Anyway, I even got a VIP card. Maybe spent too much money there.

 Before.

 After.

Back.
