Paul Frank Lipsmackers & bento lunches

Hello! :D It feels like it has been ages (probably because it has), since I last blogged.. Been so busy with lectures/exams/work that I've been neglecting this blog. >_<" It's always on the top of my mind though, whenever I'm daydreaming or something, I'll be thinking "Hmm, I'll finish this up and do a blog post!" But after I've finished whatever I was supposed to do, it'd be either to late or I'd be too tired to think anymore, LOL. Talk about bad stamina at such a young age!

I have been wanting to do reviews on a few products I'm currently IN LOVE with, so hopefully I'll be able to do that soon! :D I haven't been out and about that much either, since I'm either busy with uni or working, and I'm trying to save up as much as I can, for my trip back to Malaysia in June! I want to get gifts for family and friends, AND I'm sure shopping is going to be awesome (as usual!) so I want to be able to splurge while I'm there! ♥

But to get to June and to get home = having to finish this semester of uni! Which means I'll be having huge exams real soon! ;_; I had a look at my exam timetable and I have exams on 28th and 30th of May - NOT very pleasant since my birthday is on the 29th! D; But since I'm going home a week after that, I might just celebrate my birthday in June, with precious family and friends! I haven't had a birthday celebration with my parents, sister or my high school friends (physically) since 4 years ago so I'm excited!!

Oops, that was a long and wordy update! XD It just feels like I haven't written much lately so I'm feeling the need to share more. ^_^V Anyway, I thought I wanted to do a more recent post on what I've been up to lately! 

 

I went to Target on Friday just to do some window shopping~ Gawd, I LOVE window shopping. *U* I get so tempted to purchase, but it's always so therapeutic to just look at pretty products and what's new in the market! I did stumble across the Paul Frank Lip Smackers collaboration, and just couldn't resist their packaging!! Photos were taken using my mobile, so quality isn't as good as usual. :)

 

 

I love all the characters, especially Julius the monkey! ♥ I've tried out the normal Lip Smacker lip balm in the past, and they always smell great!! It's important to apply lip balm frequently to prevent dry chapped lips, especially in the dry Australian climate!

 

Chi Chi Eau de Parfum!! I've written about them here, and I'm still using my Peach and Mango bottle. This was the first time I tested out the Rose Petals, and it smells really feminine! They smell SO good and the smell isn't overpowering since they're only eau de parfum and not actual perfumes! I LOVE! ^_^;;

Obsessed with heels right now! They're a great height booster, not to mention making your legs look slimmer and longer! <3

Onto something else I wanted to talk about - bento box lunches!! They are to assemble! Eating out can be expensive, and not to mention - sometimes unhealthy depending on what and where you eat. Cooking at home is always ideal, but because everyone is so busy, it's hardly unexpected that it's hard to find time to do so! I've been assembling bento lunches to bring to uni lately, and they hardly take 15 minutes of your time! ^_^

 I found this bento box in our pantry the other day. Don't judge! XD It's Pokemon and all but it's so functional!! It even has an adjustable partition inside so  you can adjust how you want to split the bento box (pictures down below should explain what I mean). It's also printed on the side that the maximum temperature is 140°C and the minimum is -20°C. I think it's important to get a bento box that can withstand a high temperature, though. Just in case you decide to heat food up in the microwave. I've heard of stories saying that if you heat low quality plastic in the microwave it literally melts the plastic and you end up eating it. >_<;; Not sure how true it is, but better safe than eating plastic! And the yellow monkeys-printed little case just holds chopsticks. I got from a 100yen shop in KL. ♥

I usually wake up to cook an omelet in the morning, and it only takes 3 minutes! I add chopped mushrooms in them just to 'spice' them up!  Seasoned seaweed is from a local korean grocery store in Perth and we always have cooked rice in the fridge. :D I always have a bed of rice under the omelette~ When I do make sushi (usually tuna), I usually make quite a lot so there are always some leftovers. Really, anything you fancy can be put into your bento box lunch - that's how amazingly easy it is! A yummy, healthy and a filling lunch box!
