The Moment I Turned 26

I was in the toilet,releasing myself, about to cleanse my face and brush my teeth when there was a bang on the door. Must be Hyin, in desperate to set her bladder free. :p
"Alrite." I yelled back. Wait, did I yell? No, no i didn't, just raised my voice slightly higher so that she could hear me.
And the minute I opened the door,.......................Ta-Da....

Oh my gawd!!! I wasn't prepared and I wasn't in a presentable form either! Well...helloooooo... it has already past midnight and it was time for bed. It made sense rite? With my auntie look,and a b'day cake rite in front of me,this was the best b'day bash I've ever had! And the theme for this year was PYJAMAS. Wakeke~

Nevertheless I was sooooooooo touched.Thanks guyz. I was actually browsing through simple cupcake recipes online, thinking that I could bake myself some the next day.Well, it's quite meaningful, isn't it? To bake yourself a cake on your very own b'day?Better still, decorate it with "Happy B'day to ME!!!" on top. OR it would appear to be rather pathetic, from a different perspective coz no one seems to remember to buy you a cake, or worse, even your b'day?!

Anyway anyhow,I am the lucky few for I have a b'day cake and even luckier to have friends celebrating it with me!!!! So cupcakes?? Nah..just forget about it.... :p

Thanks WeiC and Ah Heng for the perfume!!!! Now that I have all my three favourite collections with me.. Hehe~
For those who sent me greeting via sms, on friendster or Facebook: A big THANKS to y'all.... Luv you guyz. :)

To Hao Po Tin and Sayang: You two owe me a celebration. I don't care if it's belated :p.
To my mom: Mom, where is my present??!! Hehe~

Travel Journal: London Revisited Day 2

08:35am
I swear that I must have put on a few pounds over the night! :p
Okay, everyone's basically done. Hyin is tying her shoe lace, me drinking my coffee, already done with the packing coz we are checking out today.
We are supposed to be out of the room 5 minutes ago and here we are still in the room, with me sipping my coffee. :p
Today's itinerary: Buckingham Palace then the Madame Tussauds.
We are hoping that we will be able to witness the Changing Guards Ceremony at the Buckingham Palace.
But now,everything asides, breakie comes first!

09:10am
Yippee! Ordered mine: Renoir Breakfast at the Art Cafe. Hyin even suggested to go for roasted duck for breakie if Four Seasons is open by any chance and fortunately it's not. *Phew*

10:00am-02:00pm
Went to Buckingham Palace as planned. The first time ever I came across seeing quite a number of Asians communities in London.Let's just forget about Indians, Chinese and Middle East origins for they are simply everywhere.What I meant here are Koreans and Japanese, be it residents or tourists.

Anyway, we were unfortunate enough for we did not get to see the Guards Change Ceremony as it is scheduled for tomorrow. :(
No luck, we then headed to Madame Tussauds thinking that with our fast track entry tickets,we could skip the long queue. And we were wrong AGAIN! I showed the girl our tickets and her answer was: You need to go to the back of the line. Wtf??!! It was like few blocks long??!! So??!!
So the three of us walked to the back of the line, reluctantly. Was there any other way? No,of course.
But it was worth the queue.I enjoyed Madame Tussauds as much as I enjoyed my dinner last night. :) In there,not only we got to see hundreds of wax figurines of the stars (of all sort), royal families,world leaders,cultural figures etc;


but also got to enter the Chambers of Horror whereby there would be real actors trying to scare the shit out of us and they have really done a good job. I, for one, was screaming like hell. Shame on me. :p
The tour did not end here, there was this Spirit of London in which the history of London was told in a very colourful and fun way. Never knew that history could be so interesting. Unfortunately photos and videos were prohibited.

02:30pm
Woo....it's windy and chilly. We are now taking a break in a park in Bloomsbury Square. Too tired to move an inch.
The British Museum is just a stone's throw away.

03:00pm-04:00pm
The admission was free which was fantastic. I've been to the Louvre before,so British Museum was no big deal.Didn't take us long to lose our enthusiasm. Well probably we were so drained of strength, after having to catch the tubes from station to station and the LONG walking journey.

Next we dragged our asses from the British Museum all the way to China Town again coz our friend here, Hyin was craving for roasted duck. :p I know it sounds ridiculous but we just can;t get any back in Liverpool. Since we were in London, we never should have let our chances slip away.
We walked into the Four Seasons Restaurant and ordered a half roasted duck, a big portion of char siu, stir-fry kai lan (it seemed we couldn't get enough of it) and aubergine 'n' salted fish in claypot. All these cost us GBP45 (including the tips).

05:30pm
We managed to get onto the 05:17pm train. Thank gawd. Alrite, in 2 and 1/2 hr, I'll be back in Liverpool . :)
At the end of the day, I am glad that I do not live in London. The city itself is very much vibrant and rich in culture, and yet its hectic lifestyle is simply a put off.

Travel Journal: London Revisited Day 1

07:25am

Whoah…we are early! In fact an hour early :D! The departure time for our train to London Euston is at 08:15am. See, told ya we are EARLY. Perhaps it can be explained by once bitten, twice shy. We learn from mistakes and experiences, previous encounters have taught us well that it’s far better to be early than sorry after having to miss the train.

Was raining when I woke up this morning, it was all wet and gloomy when we got out. Not quite a day, eh? Let’s just hope that everything will turn out fine when we get to London *Fingers crossed*.

08:05am

We are now on board. Everyone’s occupied. LJ can’t take his eyes off his PSP, HYin’s listening to her iPod while cracking her head, solving the Sudoku found in Metro daily;

whereas me, as you can see here, scribbling on my travel journal after toying my new Moto V8. And oh, listening to my Sony Ericsson.

11:50am

Yes!! Our room’s ready. I was expecting the receptionist to tell us to come back again after 2pm. But I was wrong. Hehe~ A nice and cozy room it is, with a double decker and a single bed. I’m gonna take the top!

12:00pm – 12.00am

After our lunch we took the tube to Embankment where the London Eye could be seen from afar. I’ve never got to do the eye in my previous visit, so I made sure that I’d made it this time, by all means. :p The whole process from queuing to purchase the tickets to another long queue ahead to get into the capsule actually took us 1 hr. Well come to think of it, it wasn’t that bad after all. And the rotation took us another 30 mins.

After the eye, we headed to Tower Hill where the London Tower is. Been there before so we made the stroll short and quick. Before I knew it, we were already out of here, making our way to the tube station to get to Oxford Street, a shopping heaven. After having to be in and out the tube stations, I could feel my face was getting greasy and dusty, my scalp was oily and it was simply not the best moment to go for a shopping spree. All I knew was I’d been ushered to move along the street by throngs of shoppers and commuters. I needed some fresh air!!

So for our own good, we decided to go straight to China Town and met up with LJ’s friend, Jimmy for dinner.

Oh my, Jimmy has been really really really generous to buy us dinner. And it was not just a simple dinner, mind you, but a luxurious treat!

For starters, there were lobster noodle, crispy duck and scallops with rice noodle. Followed by main: Steamed eel in black bean sauce, stir-fry kai lan, honey braised pork and a yong tau foo look-alike dish. Then there was dessert: Iced red bean soup.

My goodness, I was too loaded to utter a word! Man, it was finger-licking good!

We then went for a leisure walk-around after the hefty dinner.

Before we parted with Jimmy and his gf,Cherry, they managed to talk us into having ice cream at Haagen Dazs. These guys have 5 stomachs I suspect! And we have to queue for 15-20 minutes just for a table! Excuse me, it was freaking chilling....

Minutes after 12:00am

At this hour,one could have the whole coach to himself. :p

12:43am

Finally we called it a day and are back in our room. I can hardly lift my eyelids… Imagine being out for more than 15hours without a break…my feet are protesting. I need to crash now.

G’nite.

B'day Pressie

This is my b'day pressie from the couple: MotoRAZR2 V8!!


Thanks guys! :D
Lots of hugz and kisses. Mmmmmmuackssssssssssss........
And folks, if you are reading this post by any chance, it's my b'day this week.So....you know what to do... Lately my laptop's not working, my purse is soooo old and worn, my watch has been 5 or 6 years old and a bit out of style, I could use some cosmetics like mascara, lipsticks or lipgloss or even eye shadow, I haven't got enough shoulder bag, if possible I need a clutch as well (you know, to attend dinner :p), oh yeah I do not own any MP3 either, and my fav is iPod...my gawd...my life's so empty! *hehe..*
And I shall be waiting.

In the Pink

How long has it been since I last penned?! 2 weeks, or maybe more, I can’t really tell. :p I have been.. err…. pretty occupied lately…with uh…Taiwan drama series Fated to Love You. Hehe~

That’s so not me right? For someone who is turning 26 in a few days’ time, and yet is still so much into 'ou xiang ju'. There was a day when the internet connectivity was so low that we actually watched it on Hyin's iPod (a different line). :p

Guess the experts are right about one thing: in order to look young, one ought to start with the heart. :p That was what I have been practicing lately. Hahaha… But trust me, this drama series is hell a good one, if not the best. Lots of story twisting when you least expect it, tears flooding and at some point the story vividly portrayed the stark realities of life which is the reason why I love it so much.

Okay, enough rambling of that. The main purpose of this post is to let y’all know that I’ve been well, counting down the days and that I am heading to LONDON tomorrow! I have been to London once, on a very tight schedule. In less than 20 hours upon touched down (in London), I was on my way heading to Munich the next morning. So I have never really had a closer look at the megacity and its beauty. But fear not for I am gonna do it tomorrow. :)

Will upload more photos when I get back.

BeautyLicious: My Top Picks for Cosmetics Range

P/S: This entry is all about cosmetics, so if you happened to be a babe, do read on, if you are a dude, then might as well ignore this OR read on, so that you have a better idea of what to get for your spouse when cosmetic is concerned. Remember, babes like to be pampered, dude. :)

Let’s start with the basic shall we?

Facial Skincare

Over the years I’ve tried on countless salon brands, and not to mention how much I’ve spent solely on my face. My first ever cleanser and toner brand was called Meero which is an obsolete brand now I guess. Never seen it on the shelves since…like more than 10 years ago? All through my adolescence, I’ve developed a hyper-sensitive skin type which means getting a suitable facial skincare has become a challenging job. There was a point where I nearly gave up and let it be. I don’t know about guys but for ladies, it is very much frustrating for not being able to find a suitable facial skincare, especially for a hyper-sensitive skin type like myself!

Thank gawd I’ve eventually found myself one! It’s known as Drs Seager.

The range is exceptionally good for acne-prone skin (I have a sudden acne outbreak 3 years ago).

I am not saying that my skin is now as smooth as baby’s bottom but at least it has stopped the acne, for the time being (fingers crossed!).

Foundation

I used to be very anti-foundation coz one: I have very sensitive skin, do not wish to have any irritation that might leave ugly scars, a risk that I dare not to take; second: I don’t fancy looking like ICI paint.

But then there are some occasions that call for it. So I turned to my personal skincare advisor: Mommy the Expert. Hehe~

She recommended me DiorSkin Pure Light. And it was the best choice ever.

This liquid foundation doesn’t leave me a cakey feeling, instead it feels light on my skin and above all it looks super natural (literally) as if I wear nothing at all (on my face, duh…where else do you think I am talking about??!!). Plus it’s oil free which is perfect for my skin!

Eyebrow

Due to my not-so-dense eyebrows, I prefer brown shade to black. And the winner goes to………Lancôme’s Crayon Sourcils in Brun 012. It has got a small brush attached to one of its end which makes blending and shaping effortless.

Eyeliner

I’ve tried Kanebo and Shiseido before but my heart goes to Dior Liquid Eyeliner. The main criteria I am looking for is smudge-free and DiorLiner happened to do the wonder. :) It has been one of my must-have items for years.

It glides easily on the lids and does not irritate the eyes. The best part is: it can be removed by water!

So uhm….if it rains…try not to look up to the sky :p

Mascara

Again I heart Dior’s DiorShow waterproof mascara (both black and blue colour). It makes my eyelashes looking fuller and longer, not forgetting sexier. Hehe~

Or the second option would be Maybelline’s Micro-Fibre mascara. The only drawback for Maybelline is that it’s very hard to remove, you risk losing one or two lashes at the end of the day.

Eyeshadow

You would have guessed what my best choice is. Yup, it’s CD too.

And why is that so? Coz it’s long lasting even I am out the whole day and my face is getting greasy. A newly emerged best-liked is Kanebo T’estimo. Why is that so? Coz they have got very cool and shimmery shades, very Japanese. The main point is they are inexpensive.

Blush

Unfortunately I don’t use blush. :) Can’t provide any advice. Soree. ^_^

Perfume

Hmm…let me see…My favourites are Versace Bright Crystal and Burberry’s Weekend. They are absolutely gorgeous! Versace Crystal is very sweet, floral and cheerful; whereas Burberry Weekend is a floral feminine scent that lasts forever. Both can be worn casually during the day or elegantly into the night.

Another favourite of mine, Chanel Chance, it gives a stronger scent that spells sexy and is perfect for a romantic date. :) However I do not own any at the moment.

Bon Apetite: Thai Green Chix Curry

On the menu for today’s lunch was Thai green chicken curry served with hot rice.

I am not a big fan of curry (of any type) honestly, but when I tried the green curry once few months back, I loved it instantly, and that has made me coming back for more!

Ingredients:

Chicken (just enough for three)
Thai green curry paste
Onion
Cherry tomatoes
Ladyfingers
Dried chillies (optional)
Approximately a cup of coconut milk

Although I am not fond of curry, that doesn’t mean that I do not like spicy food. Due to my extremely health conscious attitude back then, I try to avoid chilli or spicy food as much as I could. I was a health conscious freak and I’d gone a bit too far, I have to admit. :) Maybe I shall write about it next time.

Anyway back to my green curry. Thinking that the curry paste might not be spicy enough, I chucked in 4 dried chillies to add on the kicks. (I did not add in any dried chillies the first time I cooked it.)

And oh my… it was a terrible mistake…

Just the first spoonful was lethal enough to numb my tongue and set my lips on fire! Next were the teary eyes and runny nose episodes. Unlike wasabi which can be described by “easy come easy go”, this burning sensation lingered on for ages. The curry was exceptionally HOT, so hot that the witness of two life-size volcanoes eruption was made possible before my very own eyes. The couple has literally gone from yellow to orangie to alarming RED then to…*BOOOOOM*, exploded.

The only words that HYin managed to say were: “Wah, this is really HOT!” and she has to stop for a few times to catch her breath before continuing; whereas LJ…my my…poor him… pearls of sweat kept rolling down his forehead and yet he never gave up. I couldn’t help but to laugh hysterically at the sight of them.

So by the end of the meal, everyone has got 2 extra sexy HotDogs in return.

I am so soree guys, it was my fault to add in 4 dried chillies, never thought that ‘4’ is the number to kill. I will be more considerate next time. :)

That's so COOL!

The coolest car of the century! Even the rim is in pink colour!!!
This car looks soooooo gay! Wakeke~

Sunday

Ever since I had bid farewell to my student life, Sunday has been my favourite day of the week. Sunday is a family day. Sunday is a chill out day. Sunday is a pig-out day. Sunday is a MSN day.

Last Sunday was all about walking and networking. Oh my, only then I realized how long I have not been on foot, at least not as much as I used to. My muscles are aching now…

It started when we were waiting for the bus. It was Sunday so the bus services were not as frequent as weekdays’. Two buses passed us by, both were packed with people, so they didn’t even bother to stop. It was almost noon and everyone was heading down town at this hour. After having to wait for almost 40 minutes, we had decided not to continue waiting, coz even if there was a bus, it would be packed as well, and we did not wanna be late for our appointment with Sandrita. So we walked.

Last Sunday was the second hottest day of the year! And damn I couldn’t use my umbrella, how pathetic. Didn’t wanna end up looking like an alien, you know, these people worshipped the sun, for them, the hotter the better; whereas for me, the hotter the deadlier, no doubt the weather was perfect for photo snapping. By the way I am not so much accustomed to the limelight. :p

HYin was busy taking photos of the rather vibrant city along the way, thanks to the sun though; whereas as I was busy searching for shady pedestrians, hastened my footsteps whenever I was exposed to the sun. If you ever hear me suggesting Pulau Redang as one of my holiday trips, it would be a miracle. And yes I have suggested it once, meaning miracle does happen in real life. Hehe~

Finally we were there, even 15 minutes earlier. :)

That was only the first half, having lunch with Sandrita.

The second half was going for a drink with other ex-colleagues of mine, as one of them, Laura is leaving for Spain this coming Thursday. Never expected that she would leave so soon. Anyway, one could never tell what would happen next, so betta enjoy and treasure life to the fullest!

It was fun hanging out with them, the rest of the evening was spent on camwhoring, gossiping, email addresses exchanging, giggling over silly jokes, and the highlight of the day was our friend, Miss HYin dropped Ewa’s Samsung camera into Laura’s cappuccino!

By the time we had our dinner, it was already quarter to 11pm.

So it has been a productive day and that’s the reason why I love Sunday! :)

Psycho Phone Conversation

I remember an encounter I had when I was working in Filini. It was not the worst I supposed but it was definitely the most psycho ever!!

I was standing by the phone doing something or nothing when the phone rang. I picked up the phone without any hesitation. Here’s how it went.

Me: Hello, Filini. Melissa’s speaking. How may I help?

(It was a guy who spoke in an extremely strong Indian accent on the other end.)

Male voice: Is this the restaurant?

Me: Yes, it’s the Filini restaurant.

Male voice: Is it an Italian restaurant?

(I am not a mean girl, so I answered him in a nice manner.)

Me: Yes it is an Italian restaurant, sir.

Male voice: Good. I would like to make a booking.

Me: Yes, of course. How many is it for, sir?

Male voice: For 4 people.

Me: When would it be?

Male voice: (He told me the date.)

Me: May I have your name and contact number please, sir?

Male voice: XXXXX. My phone number is xxxxxxxxxxx.

(From the name he has given, it appeared to me that he was an Indian. Duh…)

Me: Alright, sir.

(Then the ah neh started to ask me something about the dish we served.)

Male voice: Do you have fish?

Me: Yeah, we do serve fish, monkfish.

Male voice: Ok. Do you serve pati?

(What???!!!! What the heck was that? As I have said he spoke in a very strong Indian accent and I could not quite understand what he was asking. What I managed to make out was something started with pa and ended with ti sound. So I apologized and asked him to explain again, politely.)

Me: I am sorry sir. Please come again.

Male voice: Do you serve pati? Pati?

(Ok, now he was repeating the word and still I couldn’t catch it. I was starting to wonder if it was my problem. At the same time, I felt so embarrassed and I could feel myself blushed, hoping that the ah neh would not lose his temper and hang up on me. Then I thought he might be asking about the antipasti.)

Me: Pati? Well we do have antipasti for starter.

Male voice: No, no. Pati! Pati!

(Oh my gawd, we had a situation here now….I really truly sincerely did not understand what he wanted. And I was praying hard that he wouldn’t hang up and call the reception to complain about my poor comprehension of English.)

Me: I am really really sorry sir. I really don’t understand what you were talking about. Is it a vegetable dish? Or meat?

(I could sense he was getting uneasy and a bit fed up I supposed. Of course he has the right to. I would have exploded if someone on the other end of the phone could not understand me after having me to repeat the same word for the n times. Then here comes the psycho part.)

Male voice: (Speaking in a deeper voice) Do you have a wet pussy?

(What???!!!!!! wtf ???!!!!! Was I hearing it wrongly or it was what came out of his f**king mouth? I was shocked, stunned, speechless for a few seconds. Offended, but I was uncertain if he was over-reacting or he was only JOKING.)

Me: Excuse me sir? (I said wryly)

(Now he was explaining.)

Male voice: Is your pussy wet?!

(Son of a bitch! How was I supposed to answer?! I could have hung up on him but I didn’t for fear that it was a rude gesture and he might be offended, or worst complain about me!)

Me: Sir do you still want your booking?

Male voice: Oh yes, is it done?

Me: Yes. (Without a second thought, I hung up before he could utter another word.)

I told my manager about what happened and let her sort out the rest since I had his name and number.

Come to think of it, I was sooooooo stupid then. I should have hung up! But I DIDN’T!!!!! Bugger…

Now it’s time for revenge!

A message for the sicko wacko psycho asshole ah neh:

Fancy a wet pussy is it??! I CURSE a wet pussy growing on your face the next morning! And when you wake up and look into the mirror, all you can see is a giant wet pussy attaching to your neck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! With liquid oozing out non-stop and stink for the rest of your sick f**king life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You tw*t!

*Phew* Now I feel much betta.

Something Worth A Read

My Sayang (Miss Tak Sedap :p, a very very very dear friend of mine) passed me this few years back when I was at my lowest point, if I am not mistaken :). I regarded it as something so precious and true that I have never deleted it ever since I saved it in My Document. The reality of Love that is so well portrayed in words, that not only captures my heart but also touches my soul. Thanks dear...that indeed eased my bleeding heart..

This makes for some really interesting reading.
So what has life really offered u?
Four people you will meet in life.
Life is the process of finding love;
every person will need to find four persons in their life.
First person is u,
Second person is the one you love most,
Third person is the one who love you most,
And the fourth is the one you spend the rest of your life with.
In life,firstly you will meet with the one you love most,and learn how love feels.
Because you know how love feels,so you can find the person who loves you most.
When you have experienced the feeling of loving others and being loved,
you will then know what it is you need most.
Then you will find the person who is most suitable for you,
to be able to spend the rest of your life with.
Sadly,in real life,these three people are usually not the same person.
The one you love most doesn’t love you.
The one,who love you most,is never the one you love most.
And the one you spend your life with,is never the one you love most
or the one who love you most.
He is just the person who happens to be at the right place at he right time.
Which person are you in other people’s life?
No person will purposely have a change of heart.
At the point in time when he loves you,he really loves you.
But when he doesn’t love you anymore,he really doesn’t love you anymore.
When he loves you,he can’t pretend that he doesn’t.
Same goes,when he loves you no more,there;s no way he can pretend he loves you.
When a person doesn’t love you and wants to leave you.
You must ask yourself if you still love him,
If you don’t love him anymore,do not keep him just to save your pride.
If you still love him,you should wish him happiness,
and hope that he will be with the one he loves most,not stop him from it.
If you stop him from finding true happiness with the one he loves,
it shows you already don’t love him.
And if you don’t love him,what rights do you have to blame him for a change of heart?
Love is not possessive,
If you like the moon,you can’t just take it down and put it in your basin,
But the moonlight still shines upon you.
In other words,when you love a person,
you can use another method of possessing the person.
Let him become a permanent memory in your life.
If you really love a person,you must love him for what he is.
Love him for his good points,and the bad,
You can’t wish for him to become like what you like him to be
just because you love him.
If he can’t change to become what you like him to be,you don’t love him anymore.
When you really love a person,you cannot find a reason why you love him,
You only know that no matter when and where,good mood or bad mood,
you will wish to have this person be with you.
Real love is when two people can go through the toughest problems
without asking for promises or listing criterias.
In a relationship,you have to put in effort and give in at times,
not always be on the receiving end.
Being away from each other is a type of test,
If the relationship isn’t strong,then you can only admit defeat.
Real love will never become hate.
When two people are in love,
They love to ask each other to swear,to make promises.
Why do they ask each other to swear and promise?
Because they don’t trust each other,they don’t trust their lover.
These swear and promises are useless;
Till the sky falls,till the ocean dry,my love for you will never change!
We all know that the sky will never fall;the ocean will never dry,
Even if it does happen,are we still alive by then?
Be careful when making promises;don’t make promises that you cannot keep.
Swear by things that can never happen,because it can never happen,
so no harm just saying it casually.
Remember,”Swearing by things that can never happen are the most touching!”
In a relationship,what you say is one thing,but what you do is another.
The one saying,doesn’t believe ;the one listening,also doesn’t believe.
Which person have you found so far?
In the world so big,which person have you found?
And who has found you?

I Heart e-Shopping!

*the word 'heart' = love. one of the blogging-jargons I've learned lately :) *

Shopping could never be so much easier, particularly for groceries!! How come I have never ever opted for this option before, even though I knew of its existence way back before I was born?! Geez, I am sooooooooo thick! Now that the bus company has profited from my hard-earned wages (£1.50/trip and only Buddha knows how much they have blood-sucked me for the past 8 months) and not to mention great amount of energy has been wasted on dragging the carrier bags all the way from the bus-stop to my front door. I hate it every time I go for my weekly stock replenishment.

Having to live under the rock for almost 25 years, my judgment has been clouded by my conservative perception that online shopping is not trustworthy, and that privacy will be breached by third party one way or another. Maybe back home, it might be the case, the chances of being cheated are much higher, but here in the UK, I figured out it’s a lot safer.

I usually get my groceries from Tesco. Due to some reasons I decided to shop online instead of me going to Tesco personally. So here are the steps to hassle-free shopping guide.

First, is to log on to Tesco’s website.

Then book a delivery slot. Each slot is priced differently.

For example, weekend will cost more than weekdays. So for me I choose the time slot based on the price, would not want to pay for anything extra, not even a penny extra. After deciding on the time and day, the slot is then reserved for me for the next 2 hours while I do my shopping.

There’ll be a drop-down list by clicking Food & Drink.

So now I can start my shopping by browsing through the categories and pick the items I need. :) By selecting a particular item, it will be added automatically into the shopping basket.

Done with the shopping? Then I’ll just need to view my basket and confirm the items I have selected. If everything’s fine then I can proceed to checkout where I will be asked to confirm my details and most importantly PAY.

Then that’s it, it’s done!!

All I need to do is to wait for the delivery guy to send me my groceries.

See? No more hassles, no more struggling with the carrier bags, and I get my stuff without having me to step an inch out of the house. Isn’t that great???!!!

I love Tesco Online!!!

P/S: Just to clarify, I only e-shop for groceries. When it comes to clothes and footwear, I still prefer to visit the outlet myself.
