[Lifestyle] Students looking for part time jobs and internships in Singapore can now embark on their journey with Stroff.com

Hey everyone!


It's almost June holidays for many of you. 
Some of you in Universities might be already in your holidays.
Just wondering how you guys are going to spend your school holidays?
When I was around that age,
I was probably working on my part time jobs Singapore position during my school holidays,
earning that extra dollars just so I can catch a movie or 2 with friends,
eat and eat and shop! lol. 

 Thinking back, It's really fascinating because you get to learn on the job, earn the dollars and make new friends!

 It's win-win situation! 
Work, learn and get paid. Good right?
Build up some working experience and maybe you might make friends with your future boss? 
You'll never know! 

 I do know some of you might just want to be a bummer and stay at home to play computer/online games all day long or even hang out with your friends daily with whatever pocket money your parents have provided.

 You can slack your days away but time is clicking as well.
Time is Money you know?
Some of the part time jobs I've worked on were enjoyable too!
With all the colleagues guiding me on what to do and making sure I'm okay.
It's really a great feeling! *especially when you see the $$ coming in.. haha!
I'm sure your parents and loved ones will feel proud of you for making the right choice! 
Aiyoh. Prioritize your time my dear.

 ***

 I do understand that it's really some hard-work searching for a suitable job, whether part-time or full-time.
And many job portals in Singapore are catered mainly for those who are looking for full-time positions.

 There isn't any/or we hardly come across a portal that caters to part-time positions or internship Singapore opportunities, you think?

As you may already know, many job portals mostly cater to 
those who are already working and who 
prefer full time jobs rather than short term ones.

If a jobs portal gives you a wider choice of jobs to choose, 
and these job opportunities are focused on you as a student, surely why not, right?!

 *

Come, I share with you...

I was introduced to Stroff.com by a friend,
A Singapore jobs portal which provides 
extensive job recommendations primarily in 
relation to the sub-niches of Singapore Internship and Part Time Jobs for Students .
Like wow! 
Now I can finally ask my company to check this website out when in search for 
part time jobseekers or student interns who are interested!
*you know it's pretty hard to get a suitable candidate sometimes.
This portal will be of good help to us!

[Signing up]
It's a breeze to sign up for Stroff.com. 
Just tap on the "Sign in with Facebook" button and you are ready to go!

I'm impressed that they even have job offerings to Jobseekers looking for full-time, fresh graduate, freelance and temp/ad hoc jobs!

it seems like eternity because it is never ending.

[Food Review] Grand Opening of Saboten, Millenia Walk, 27 April 2015


Howdy everyone!

(Source)

I believe many of you might have heard about Saboten and knows that they used to have one outlet at Millenia Walk.

*They're one of the largest Tonkatsu chains with over 500 outlets in many countries such as Japan, Hong Kong, Korea, Singapore and many more.
And...
They're finally BACK in Millenia Walk!!

I used to work at Parco, Millenia Walk and most of the time, I would go there for my lunch break.
The service was awesome and they've never once disappoint me with their food quality.

A meal which costs around S$20++ (depends on what you're ordering) and comes with free flow of miso soup, imported Japanese rice, and fresh cabbage! 
It's so worth it!

It's always Hunwari Tenderloin Don for me. Always! 
I'm a sucka for that. 
I don't have to look at the menu to choose, it's always Hunwari Tenderloin Don!. 
A loyal fan! teehee^^

I'm so glad they're finally back at Millenia Walk because It's just walking-distance away from my current workplace. *egg-cited*

I'm so lucky to be able to attend and witness their grand opening!

Read on because they're having a great promotion right now!!

At the Grand Opening of Saboten, Millenia Walk..


Special drum performance for all the VIPs and invited guests.


Opening Speech from one of the directors of Saboten.

It's really an eye-opening ceremony!

We get to try the sake and wow, it's strong!




Finally it's meal time!
We get to try out their extensive food menu and I'm impressed!


Mix of Ebi Katsu and their most popular, Pork Loin Katsu just for the two of us!
Super generous!

Le Boyfriend was sharing with me how he fell in love with their cabbage 
(*he hates his greens but fell in love with Saboten's Fresh Cabbage!) 

Credit me okay, I introduce Saboten to him one. *proud*






After meal dessert.

We were already super full by then.
I can say it's really refreshing and a good way to end the meal!


Thank you Saboten Singapore for having us! 
We, and our tummy, enjoyed very much!


And guess what,

They're having a super duper good promotion!

50% off  on every second set ordered 
(*selected set only)!!
and it depends on the day itself.
My favorite Hunwari Tenderloin Don is on Fridays!! Woohoo!



For more information, do like their page and follow their updates!
Great deals till end of June 2015!!

[Lifestyle] JB 2D1N getaway - City Square Mall, Taman Sentosa Food and Things to do

Hey guys,

Where did you go for your Labour Day holidays?
It was a long weekend for many of us.
Well, I was practically still working on that day but went to Johor Bahru the next day morning for my escapade. :)
There's really alot of things to do in JB. 
We had it planned way before going in.
We'd booked our hotel room way before this planned trip so that we know our room was reserved. Kiasu indeed. haha!
Play safe lah huh, you know it's really hard to predict especially you do not know the country so well. (I only go JB like 3-4 times a year just for shopping and food and it's always a day trip!) 

This time round is just more of a chilling trip. Didn't really plan to go drinking that night. 
Maybe next time round with friends. :)

So here's what we roughly planned..
To-Do List:
- Watch Movie (Avengers: Age of Ultrons .. Wah MUST-WATCH!)
- Food (duh?!)
- Watch Man United Football Match
- Sleep
- Food again...
- Buy Goodies back for parent
- Buy whatever!

haha!

Went to Bugis bus terminal to board the bus.
SG-JB custom
Ticket was S$3.30 one-way.

Passed the JB custom, we head over to City Square Mall to purchase the movie tickets.
Kiasu the tickets sold out or seats available are miserable 
so we bought early. 
(Movie at 7:15pm,we bought at 2:30pm lol!)

Don't say I don't share hor...

Here's the new Cathay movie ticket prices:
It was weekend so we paid RM18 for each ticket.

At time of trip, the exchange rate was 2.69 so each ticket was a mere SGD6.70?! 

Where to get sia?!

After getting our tickets, we were pretty hungry (we didn't had anything in the morning, except an ice cream with bread from the ice cream uncle at Bugis Mrt carpark), I suggested having Arashi hotpot restaurant for our brunch.

It was Melvin's first time. :)
Had the Salmon/Pork & Salmon/Chicken set with Tomyam Broth/Herbal Broth.
2 Drinks: Golden tea Ice Drink (mine) and Ice Lemon Tea (his)
Add on: Slice Pork Collar
Resulting the bill to be about RM104 so in SGD is about S$38.70.

Slightly on the high side but it's very filling and the soup was sedap!

*yeap, I removed my hair extensions. Back to mid-length hair. 

Our drinks.
The Ice Lemon Tea was pretty different from the other places we'd tried before.
It's refreshing and not sweet at all.

The Golden tea drink was really made of real tea leaves and flowers.
No sweetness at all but it's pretty good for cooling down.

After our meal at Arashi, We walk around, had our hair trimmed at Reds.

Well, I won't say it was a great experience there or what but I won't visit that salon again. EVER.
The guy that assisted Melvin and me was literally busy bringing in customers, cutting our hair, asking his colleagues or staff (I suppose he's the shop owner or at least a manager there) to tidy up the place after doing their job for their customer and blar blar... ALL AT ONCE! Like hello, you asked us to wait, we waited, And when it's our turn, he just do a swift job, anyhow do one. -_-'''
The price list on the counter stated
RM40nett for Males and Females RM48 and above BUT....

My hair length was just touching the shoulder and all he needs to do was just trimming my hair ends and layer it which he did it very fast because his focus was everywhere and I got charged RM65+.

wtf..

Fine, it's fine though.. But when we are done and ready to pay, he says our bills got to add GST.
He separated our bills which I thought the male's bill would be RM40nett.
I was WRONG!

I was like huh? Okay? If you're charging me with GST I'm pretty fine but your price list stated for guys is nett price and you're charging him GST too?

Seriously not very professional. 
Plus he did hurt Melvin several times when he trimmed his hair on the sides because he was in rush to reprimand his staff or colleagues or whatever. Melvin had to remind him to go slow and not in a rush and have to ask him to trim gently. People's head leh hello. -_-'''

Never going back*

Anyway, after that bad encounter, we went shopping around.
That really helps calm me down. haha!

He bought a pair of casual shoes at only RM49.90 ( SGD18.55). 
Pretty good deal I must say.
And I bought some eyeliners and makeup from Sasa and Watson's.
No picture because lazy to take. heh heh.

Made him take a picture with Hulk at Action City and he pose like this for me. LOL!

Oh!!

If you're always going home late or suspecting someone stalking you home, you can get this!
Pepper Spray!
I don't know if it's legal or what to buy this back to SG but it seems pretty legit since Watson's in JB sells it yah.

Watched the movie.. omg! Super nice! I was enjoying every bit of it and yah, even my 'neighbor' was shaking his leg, I enjoyed it. haha!
Took a cab to our hotel to check in.

No hotel photos because I don't quite like the idea of taking pictures in hotel room especially when it's dark at night. I scared lah okay.

After leaving our things in the hotel room, we head to the coffee shop opposite for our dinner.

*p.s: Don't mind my photo-taking because I was taking the food photos in a dark environment, I have to take them in flash aiyah you get what I mean. heehee.

This is basically right opposite our hotel, Grand Sentosa Hotel located at Taman Sentosa.
The popular hawker where there's stalls selling Zi-Char and Beggar Chicken?
Yeap, it's pretty near there, or rather it's approximately a 10mins walk.


And this is like da bomb there!
Barbeque and green chili goes super well. Blogging this now makes me salivate already omg.

These are just some of the yummies you can pick, there's pretty much of a good variety there you can choose from. But don't say I never remind you, You gotta wait for your order to be served and it might take pretty long because some other tables already picked their items and they really pick alot lah can. Like mountain-full sticks of food! 
Must-order that chicken meat look alike haha.
 I really don't know what's that called but it's damn yummy!
this plate of delicious costs only RM19!! SGD$7 only!! 

Must dip this green chili sauce! 

Ordered stir-fry lala.
Nice~
Sambal fried rice because my boy loves sambal fried rice.
It rhymes~ haha!

Sambal four season beans.
Crunchy but a tad lil oily.
Still, it's nice~

All these for less than RM 60= SGD22.30. 
wO_Ow

Went to De Cave for some light refreshments after our dinner.
Located just beside our hotel.
Watched a depressing Man united Match that night.
Very sad that Man united didn't win.
There's live band going on and the lady sing pretty well.
He drank beer while I have orange juice.
Rained that night too.


Off to hotel to chill and zzz.


NEXT DAY~~~

Checked out of our hotel at 12noon and headed to the other side towards the famous hawker to check out some food places for brunch.

Settled for their local economic rice stall.

Very simple fare but it's good enough to start our day :)

Headed back to City Square by cab and went to buy some yummy goodies for our parent
before we go back to SG.
These bought from a store, Mika. They have quite a good range of designed and yummy sponge rolled cakes!
Like it that the cream's not too sweet and they're pretty cute!

Had to head back to SG early for my mum's birthday dinner.

Oh!
If you're going to head back to Queen Street via the Causeway link Buses, do get small change in Ringgits though they accept Singapore dollars but ringgits more worth mah.

RM3.40 back to SG Queen Street, S$3.40 Back to Sg Queen Street.
Which one you think worth?


DUH!
So do remember to get some small change before going to the custom.
*Those guys in CW uniforms will NOT help you change your notes! so
GIVE EXACT OK!

Will share some photos on that occasion soon too!

Oh! I didn't forget about my Hongkong trip as well.

Will be sharing very soon. :)

Till then,

[4D3N Hong Kong Trip April 2015] My Birthday trip to Hong Kong with my love: Day 1 Part 1

Hello all!

It's been really an amazing month for me because me and my boy finally went for our first trip oversea via flight! hehe!

*We have traveled by ferry to batam, coaches to KL and Genting and this time, it's airplane and best of all, It's our Singapore Airlines!

How did we ended up going Hong Kong? 
Well, there was just one day we were discussing which country to visit and stuff, I suggested going Hong Kong because the previous time I went was about 3-4 years back and the experience was meh...

So my beloved boy just said okay, we'll go there for your birthday, how's that?
How's THAT? What how's that? OF COURSE GOOD LAH!

hahahah! Ok big reactions.

But seriously my heart and stomachs was filled with butterflies when he said that.
So happy can, plus he said he's gonna bring me and sponsor me all expenses meaning my flight, hotel stay, attraction tickets, food and SHOPPING!!!  <3 <3 <3.


awwww....

*
*
*
Back to topic....

Then we research through googling and stuff ............nothing much.
Finally head to Natas Fair and eventually bought the free and easy package.

4D3N Hong Kong Trip at Dorsett Mongkok Hotel with daily breakfast, SIA return tickets and return airport transfer for S$585 each pax = booked!

Say cheap not cheap but it's pretty worth because it's SIA! 

Day 1 ( 9th April 2015)
Early morning prepared to go to the airport. 
Taking off at 9:30am!

We're super tired but very excited about the trip! haha!

Researched online that the temperature was around 26-27 degrees so didn't really pack much jackets, just a pullover and a hoodie jacket, and some dresses that's it.

See his tired-but-kenna-force-to-take-picture face.
haha.


Okay my face too. 
We both only manage to take a short nap because we couldn't really sleep before our departure. Our energy was draining but we're super excited!
Go in lo.....
Same pose.
While waiting for our gate to open...

Boarded.


Fly with me~

Our meal on board~
We actually shared the meals so that we can try out to see if which one taste better.
I'm pretty impressed that the in-flight meals are so much better now.
I would have leftovers and still feeling hungry if compared to the last time.

We finished up everything! haha!


The nice stewardess came to check on us if we need more drinks after our meal, then I saw the drink menu that we can actually request for beer or wine too!
His eyes literally glow lah can..

He can never say no to beer~

Finally reached Hong Kong International Airport!
But guess what, our dearest aircrew announces that the temperature was 19 degrees and I was like, HUH?????



Win liao.. -_-'''


Anyway,
Bought our Disneyland Tickets from the agent at HKD$490 instead of the usual price HKD$499.

*Read on because I'll be sharing with you guys where to get even cheaper, discounted Hongkong Disneyland tickets! So nice right me... *pat on my shoulder*


Didn't took any picture of our hotel but here's the interior of our room..



Every room comes with a handy 3G phone set where you can make use of it to tether hotspot and make local calls for FREE! 
Amaze-ball ain't it!?
You literally save the money on 2x sim card and spend it elsewhere like food.... haha!

From the entrance, the bathroom, mini fridge and necessities are on the left.
No bathtub but it's rain shower baby~~
Pretty neat and clean I would say.
But still, boil water in the kettle and let it steep in it for awhile.
Do not drink the first round!
Pour it away and fill in water and then boil it.
Drink only the second round!

Heard alot of stories like some drunk guests uses the boiling kettle to hold their puke or throw rubbish in it or use it to cook maggie mee or whatever they use it for, just wash it clean before you use them or if you're still worried, DON'T USE IT!
(*What's wrong with them sia???)

I don't do that, I mean who does that??! lol!

Glass cabinet and a safe box in the bottom wooden cabinet.
Good enough for 2 pax :) 

Luckily is not those can see through one.
I'm still very shy okay~ haha!


Our bed. Super comfy!

It's pretty small but good enough for two of us plus it's really cozy!

Gotta just change and wear something much more comfy and keep me warm
because we're heading out lo!.
*how I love my pullover <3*


Heading out after checking in!
Camwhore in the lift~

The hotel provides their guests free shuttle service to nearest shopping heaven aka the Langham Place where Mong Kok MTR station is located.


Saw this Mercedez with a cute car plate! 
We can't see this in Singapore. 

Cold wind even on the day~

Wondering why some of the ladies and guys from Hong Kong keep their skin free from blemishes?
They're really very healthy lot! 
Almost everywhere we go, we'll find stores that sell cooling herbal tea that nourishes and clear heat for the body. 
I saw some of the office ladies buy like 2-3 bottles and it seems like it's a common thing to do. 
Tried the tea and taste super good! Not sweet at all and super refreshing!

Now here's the highlight of this blog post:

WHERE TO BUY ORIGINAL GENUINE HONGKONG ATTRACTION TICKETS!?

Walking pass Mongkok MTR Station, go look for the Tourist Services!
MongKok Mtr Station Tourist Services where you can purchase discounted attractions tickets such as Hongkong Disneyland, Ocean Park and so on...
There you can purchase discounted Attraction tickets such as Disneyland tickets,
Ocean park and so on.

Hongkong Disneyland adult tickets at HKD$470. 

Cheap right?!
Not very alot of discount but still better than getting tickets online from scam websites or scam agencies right? :)

There's many such tourist services counters in selected MTR station (that you can google online yah) where you can purchase it on the spot.

Do note their operating hours though. Be there in the day should be fine :)
Mongkok Mtr Station
I'll be touching on where exactly we went on our first day and so on..

Do check it out soon yah!

Loads of photos coming up!

Till then,
