Fitness Quiz

I enjoyed the random beauty quiz, so I thought I'd do a fitness quiz, just for fun. Again if you're doing it too, let me know!

What's your favourite activity?
Love swimming, but it's always difficult, because the weather is so unpredictable. I hate swimming in the cold water.

What do you do to keep fit?
Mostly I cycle and swim. Recently I've been going to the gym where I use the treadmill, lift weights and the rowing machine.

How often do you exercise?
It varies, usually once a week? It used to be more often, about three times a week but it's so hard to make the time and effort.

Who's your inspiration?
I don't believe in thinspo (thin inspiration), I believe in fitspo (fit inspiration). Definitely Bar Refaeli, she looks really good.

What do you do when you need inspiration?
I'll watch the Victoria's Secret fashion shows! They definitely make me want to get fit. I also watch the VSX body vodcasts with Doutzen Krous, they'e easy to follow and help me to exercise more frequently.
After watching the Olympics, I've started following the world of gymnastics. Watching videos of girls doing backflips and vaults and looking so graceful makes me want to get up and do something myself, even though I can't even somersault. I like Aliya Mustafina and McKayla Maroney.

What are your workout songs?
Upbeat songs like Black Eyed Peas, Coldplay, Beyonce, Maroon 5. Titanium by Sia, Mulan's I'll Make A Man Out Of You is also great. I can't listen to slower songs.

What do you plan to take up in the future?
I've been wanting to take up a dance class like hip hop or street jazz. And the new trend Fly Yoga looks interesting, even though i don't like yoga. I've been longing to try out horse riding but there's always a deep fear of falling. Maybe one day.

Intro Post

Despite the name, this blog is not about carousels or couture (although you never know, that might change?). Nobody likes to spend money on something, only to discover that it does not deliver what it has promised. I sure don't. So I start this blog with the hopes that perhaps it'll help someone find their holy grail. And maybe, I'll find my own on the way too. Expect to find beauty and skincare reviews, book reviews, movie reviews, and current obsessions. Oh, and a little couture here and there too.

Schwarzkopf Ultimate Colour 499 Dark Cherry review

TDLR Review:  I would not recommend this hair colour product at all, because the shade turned out nothing like the box. Also it is difficult to wash off.  NOTE: I have dark Asian hair, which might be the reason why it's not suitable for this product. So I'm back with another hair dye review! I've raved about the Liese hair dyes before ( Cassis Berry , Sweet Apricot , Antique Rose ), because those are super easy to use (I've appreciated that even more after finding out how difficult some at-home hair dye kits can be to apply). But I got suckered into getting a box of Schwarzkopf Ultimate Colour hair dye, because the models on Schwarzkopf hair dye boxes always have gorgeous shades of hair! I've used Schwarzkopf before, I've bought the Palette in Magical Blue Black (no review, only a haul). But I was disappointed with it, because there was only a faint sheen of blue, and the black faded from my hair quite quickly. The trouble with Schwarzkopf also is

Old Town White Coffee Ipoh Hor Fun review

  Who doesn't like Old Town White Coffee? It's so nostalgic, from the furniture they have to the food they serve. It's really like a throwback to the simpler times in Singapore. According to Wikipedia, Old Town White Coffee is the largest kopitiam restaurant chain in Malaysia and has over 180 outlets in the region. Can you believe that? I love their kaya toast and of course, their Ipoh Hor Fun. Why go to Penang when you can just enjoy the Hor Fun here? Normally I get those Ipoh Hor Fun that is served in rich gravy, with not much soup. But this one is served in a clear broth, which is perfect for a light meal that is also filling. At the end of it, you won't feel too full or bloated like if you had something richer. The kway teow is served with generous helpings of prawns and chicken shreds every time I go there (my favourite outlet is Playground at East Coast Park, the area that used to be Big Splash. There are 8 outlets in Singapore at the moment, and they ar
