Food Overload

Other than my haul, I also wanted to share some pics of the food I've consumed over the week XD

Hot Point's Chicken Baked Rice. Delicious.

Hot Point's Fruit Cocktail with Custard and Warm Honey Lemon.

Hot Point's Banana Fritters with Ice Cream. Funny dessert really. lol.

The Colony's Macarons. I had coconut and orange chocolate!

Astronaut Ice Cream. Was excited for this.

It's Neapolitan flavoured. To me, it has this malt marshmallow  taste . It  tasted nice.

Starbucks' Cinnamon Bun.

Starbucks Green Tea Cream with whipped cream and chocolate chips.

Dad's lunch lol. Sugarbun smoken fish thingy.

I had the nugget version of it. It was soggy lol.

I forgot to add, Starbucks Biscotti. I only tried the Chocolate Pistachio.

I really recommend Hot Point's Baked Rice! I especially love the vegetable one. The fruit cocktail dessert was also yummy. Just try them all! Go on!

I'm on a no-sweet food diet for a week. So...yeah lol. I hope I can survive.

Yogurt Twister

Twisted!!

Today's my parents' anniversary. We went to Excapade Sushi in Gadong. I was too busy eating I forgot to snap some pictures. I need to get myself a good camera first because my phone doesn't take pictures well in dim light and we all know that the main branch is always dark in atmosphere.

I tried out one of their new menus, one of the udons. They served it on a pot with fire and it kept on boiling the curry in it, burning my tongue. I had to request for the flames to be put out, only then did I enjoy my meal. I thought the salmon was supposed to be raw though, it came cooked. Disappointed.

Anyway, I wanted to go to a supermarket to buy dessert. I can't have food without my dessert, just like a spoiled child! I wanted ice cream but the place we went to didn't sell any. Bummer.

So~ I decided to buy a drink. It's ice blended, right? lol.

'Yogurt Twister' from Kokoberry!

I LOVE anything with yogurt! Even yogurt chocolate. It's so good. I really don't know why I love yogurt, I just do! Putting yogurt on your face...even though it's healthy...the smell is just----ugh. lol. But it can be refreshing.

Somehow tonight, the taste wasn't as good as the first time I tried it. I didn't taste the chocolate. I tasted the yogurt a little but then somehow it was bland.

In the pic, the snack behind the drink is also something I like eating. But none of that tonight...sad :(

Other than that, I also bought St. Ives 'Mineral Clay Firming Mask'! I wanted to buy this at Winmark but they didn't have it. I saw that it was BND$8.40 and thought that it was cheaper than other places. It's 134g though for the price :I I hate the pricing here. It's like what? $3.97 in the US? According to that website I checked anyway.

I've bought many different products this week, and weeks before that too. Some I liked, some...not so much.

But I'll still use them. I have two facial cleansers from The Face Shop, a Cyclax body scrub and body butter, a soap that's supposed to be good for the skin...I'll try and post pics on my next post.

What I like using so far is the Cyclax stuff and the soap. It's a Philippines product, the soap. I thought it would be drying like this other soap I tried but it's not! I'm not sure if I'm breaking out from it or what but problem areas like my cheeks and jawline hasn't had any for a few days. I've had two on my forehead and two on the sides of my eyes. I think my glasses need to be disinfected with alcohol :(

I did take a pic of my face before I used the soap, so I'll see in two weeks to see if there are any positive changes. I also use it on my body.

So, tonight I'm gonna see if the mineral clay mask dries out my spots or not. I pray to God that it does. I hope it works for me!!! I don't want any wastage going on like that friggin' shampoo. I might give it away to someone whose hair suits that effin' shampoo. I just don't want to look at it anymore! It depresses me.

I guess it depresses me more because I bought it with my own money. I'm a student without allowances so...it's just sad.

Sigh. I haven't tried it to wash my brushes. I might try tonight.

Either way, I hope it works. At least, for something.

I'm so full from dinner!! Might sleep early tonight.

I guess it's a good thing I didn't wear makeup tonight, no need to cleanse face like hell. I don't like using the makeup remover that mom bought for me from Etude House. It's too oily. It also has mineral oil!

Happy Anniversary, mom and dad~ I think it's their 32nd Anniversary? I think so.

Too much FOOD.

Hey.

Today I went to school despite the study leave. Had a great time, even though I got a bit teary eyed when I talked about my problems to my friend but overall it was okay.

Well, not really.

I had this disagreement with my mom so I just gobbled up a little bit more than I could chew. Three different savoury buns from Soon Lee.

I bought the curry donuts (can't beat Hua Ho's), the beef burger bun (a beef patty on a bun, with mayo and chili among others) and the tuna bun. Too much? Yes. Too much. It was enough to just eat the beef burger bun really, as I ended up really liking it. The curry donuts on the other hand...wouldn't buy it again. Twice was enough. The tuna bun...I haven't really finished it.

I've got half of it left.

It looks like a brain, no? Tuna Brain Bun.

Truth be told, I shouldn't have devoured the buns so fast. I was hungry, yes, but it didn't warrant me eating three at one time.

I just got depressed by the time I went home.

I thought food would fix it. No. Never. Food's just there.

On top of that, I also bought this cake, American Chocolate Cake, also from the same place.

That one is gooood.

( '3' ) it's not too sweet for me.

On top of that I also had a small box of Milo and drank plenty of water.


But you know what? It didn't make me feel any better.
In fact, I had indigestion.

What's the moral of the day?
Sadness and depression does not equate to you eating without thinking.


...now I feel so uneasy.

So now, I shall drink green tea.

Mogu Mogu

Yesterday, other than buying the disastrous shampoo mentioned here, I also bought chocolate and a drink. The chocolate is something I'm used to buying but the drink is something new.

I tried out this juice:
'Mogu Mogu: Pineapple Juice', 320 ml

Cute, ain't it? Bad quality pic, sorry!

What it contains:

- Pineapple Juice 25%
- Nata de coco 25%
- Fructose 4%
- Sucrose 4%
- Citric Acid 0.1%
*Artificial colour and nature identical flavour preservative added* (weird, lol)

Hmmmm, it's a product of Thailand, but it uses Japanese. Weird, huh? I guess in some ways, it appealed to me as I like Japanese food. Despite that, this is not Japanese. Another selling point was that it had nata de coco, which is a chewy coconut jelly.I LOVE anything with nata de coco!!! There were also other flavours but I chose pineapple because I like pineapple juice in general, and the fruit too.

This is also a 'halal' product, which is also good :D

My thoughts on it?
I like it!

It's a refreshing juice, I was in the car and I just drank it while eating the chocolate too. To me the sweet-tooth, it wasn't that sweet, despite it having nata de coco. I guess it kinda neutralizes the sweetness when you chew the jelly. I think it also has soluble fiber.

I'm not really sure about the health content but I wouldn't buy this often anyway. My favourite drink will always be a glass of cold water. I bought this at a supermarket and the price was BND$1.00.

Other flavours are grape, lychee, strawberry and mango I think. I shall try them another time. I don't like lychee flavoured drinks as much, I prefer the fruit so I might think hard if I were to try it.

But I really have to say that this was a refreshing discovery as I've always been curious about it.

My only beef would be the price but then I think it's originally sold with a BND$1.20 price tag? I guess it should be fine.

I think it's sold worldwide? I'm not sure but it's definitely sold in Brunei.

At least there was something worthwhile from yesterday's purchase...

If you have the chance, do try it out!!
