بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم I miss travelling!!! Looking at all the leaves for 2020 and my passport is so depressing! This long overdue blogpost will suffice, I guess. A came about loving mountains after watching Anapurna and Everest base camp on some travel shows on TV. From then, we pretty sure making a point to include climbing a mountain in one of our destinations. We decided Bromo as it is the easier version because it is not so hard to climb. AND I WAS WRONG! It was not so high BUT because of the sand and dust (and horse poop smell), it took us long to climb up and down. When descended and I blown my nose, all black particles came out and I showed to A, he felt disgusted. hahah. I inhaled the dust around and when I washed my face and hands, it was so black. Should have brought change of clothes. Can you see the mountain tips? The rooftop view. super nice and cold! Subuh Fajr  Sunrise Me + You See the fog The sulfuric smell super strong Hi horsey Jejak rosul keee I love this shot Love

Car Rentals in Singapore

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم Alhamdulillah, after I passed my driving license for 6 month, I am having fun driving around Singapore. In Singapore, companies like Carlite and TribeCar accept probation drivers (below 1 year of driving licence). I signed up with TribeCar at first and had issues, cars are very bad conditions, thus leaving them to try out Carlite. Surprisingly, Carlite has the exact same interface website (they dont use an app) as TribeCar. I just got to know from my brother that TribeCar is a subsidiary  of Carlite where Tribe bought cars from Carlite. The rentals options are by pick up and park at the same parking space on charged by hourly, prices are comparable. To compare TribeCar and Carlite, I find Carlite's customer service officer is very nice and patient and Carlite cars are way better than TribeCar.  I wanted to sign up for BlueSG and Smoove after the Tribe incident but both only allows me to have my license after a year and 2 year respectively. And Smoove just ann

The truth about skincare

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم During this lockdown, I got bored and stumble upon Hyram's channel  on Youtube. He is one of the most truthful person about skincare products and ingredients and he is also famous on how to get rid of acne and pimple issues. I found many along the way too such as Susan Yara  and her other channel Mixed Makeup , James Welsh . For me, I don't have much problem with my skin, it is that I need to start because I've aged. Only that I always have problems on choosing the best products for my skin and understanding my skin. More expensive products ≠ Better results The most common thing that, logically speaking, the more expensive, the better product. I mean, models represented these expensive products such as  SKII, Estee Lauder, Shu Uemura, Kheihls and slapping them on their ever beautiful skin. Please don't be fooled, use skincare that are suitable for your skin and condition, not because of the expensive products. Ingredients are important. I love Ski

Road to IVF

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ I am going to update you guys on my IVF journey BUT before that, here are the important things your need to know: If you are Singaporean, you are entitled of the government grant of both IUI and IVF procedures that they called it ART (artificial reproductive treatment). Currently only 3 government hospitals are running ART: SGH, NUH and KKH.  You can also use your medisave for the balance payment, thus you don't need to fork out or save so much. Yes, I did have that concern before that IVF costs $10 - $15k but don't worry, you can use medisave up to $6k on your  first treatment.  On top of all these, you need to be married and tried for at least 1 year, the better if you have any complications like endometriosis, polyps, irregular menses. So here's the breakdown from Jan 2020: So you see, we don't really encourage to go private as you may have to fork out more but if you go for comfort and speedy treatment and have lots of saving, yo
