Self-help book review + some Anna Sui love

As some of you might have known, I bought a book a few weekends back. So after reading about halfway into the book, I thought I will talk a little about it.
Serena! This is for you!


This is actually my first self-help book. I usually don't read non-fiction book. They just seems so boring. But there has got to be some reason why people pick up self-help books right? Or why they are called self-help books right? So yeah, a month or so back, I was feeling....bothered and unhappy and all. So I met up a gf and went to pick up one.

This is a book on basically being a happier person. Or how to become happier than you already am now.

I do occasionally browse self-help books but like mentioned earlier they are so ZZZ, but this book is not! Well.... there is no humor nor funny examples. But it is backed by numerous groundbreaking research studies. This is how this book is different and is able to capture my attention and not let me get distracted when reading. All the various methodologies mentioned have research studies to prove their points and results, so you will know that it will work.

Since my current job is in market research field, I can really relate to the book. You know everyone can say how counting your blessings can make you happier or make you appreciate what ever you have now more, but you never know whether if it really works. So this book shows various research studies to prove how this method really works. Then you won't feel so skeptical about the truth behind it because figures and results never lies.

Another thing I like about the book is that there are activities for you to do! Below are some outtakes from the book.

Overall, it is an interesting read and I must say it has help me in becoming happier over these few weeks.

Look at all this Anna Sui love!! They are love from the bro's girlfriend! She gave me all these goodies, even before I had met her.


I will be adding some more stuffs for the Giveaway, so do keep a lookout!

Book & Mag Shopping + First Giveaway

Yesterday I had a really therapeutic meet up with a gf. Here we are at Coffee Club Express for lunch. Everything was yummy!



Rich chocolatey desert for her.

The same old Ice Mocha for me. Haha.

We then head to Kino to look at some books and magazines.

We were at the Philosophy and Psychology section and my gf had this idea to take photos against the sign. ** My frowning face depicts that I could not find a book that I like.

Here is what I got.

And this is what she got.

Some random sightings around town.
This really amuses me. They even have a twilight bedsheets cover set!

It is only September but 2011 diaries are on the shelves already! I was so tempted to get one!


Lastly, OOTD.


I will be having my very first giveaway very soon! Do look out for it in the next post!
