Magnetic eyelashes

Aoko — Wed, 09 Dec 2020 13:54:25 +0800

Too many different brands with similar products out there but too little honest reviews.

Seems like mostly are only available via direct sales.

Anyone here tried it before? Any recommendations or brands to avoid?

💉 HPV Vaccine - Gardasil 9 in Klang Valley 🧬

Aoko — Sun, 09 Aug 2020 15:59:39 +0800

Just realised I belum dapat my HPV vaccination yet...Missed out the free vaccination given by govt last year

Well, better late than never right

Wanted to get Gardasil 9 type only. Roughly checked that the price to get it at private healthcare is usually at least RM450 for one shot/RM1400 for 3 shots, and it is not a small amount for me.

May I know if there is any recommended place to get it in Klang Valley and what is the cost?

Not familiar with govt hospitals either...do they accept walk-ins for the vaccination? What is the procedure like? What is the cost?

Thank you

Defer commencement date after joining

Aoko — Mon, 06 Jan 2020 12:18:23 +0800

Long story short: I have just started working for a day in the new company and something sudden happened in my family which calls for more family time. In this case, can I still defer my commencement date to a month later (after CNY)?

Some background before I come up to this thought:
1. Hectic working life
I was shocked to find out that it is a norm to work overtime every single day here. No one leaves the office on time. But if you arrive at work just 1 minute later, you will receive a warning letter from HR. I worked OT for about an hour and that was only because my manager was being kind and allow me to leave early. None of my previous jobs requires me to work OT on the first day!

2. No orientation/briefing about the company yet
There was supposed to be a half day orientation on the first day (along with other new joiners from different departments), but HR suddenly changed the plan after making all of us waited for half an hour in the meeting room and just directly brought us to our team instead. There was no office tour given and we had to figure out where things are located at on our own (big office with few floors). We have yet to be informed of the new schedule.

3. No access to almost everything yet
It will take 2 weeks to get our access card ready, although we have submitted all required docs/forms at least one week prior.
People are already giving me tasks to work on my first day, even though I have yet to obtain the license for the software/application needed to perform the tasks.

4. CNY is just around the corner
Before they persuaded me to join as early as possible, I was told that I can utilize my AL during my probationary period. Now with the projects are rushing and all, I have started to worry if I can still take a week off for CNY.

I feel that I am not ready to commit to this kind of working life/culture yet, especially not during this period of family moment. What can I do?

Medication to delay menstrual

Aoko — Sat, 05 Oct 2019 13:18:21 +0800

Planning to get it from pharmacy since the first day of my menstrual next month will be during a trip (the cycle changes after the trip is planned 😫) and my cycle is early for this month somemore. May I know:

1. What are the choices available?
2. Which pharmacy to get it (Caring, Guardian)?
3. Any side effects (that you have personally experienced)?
4. Would you recommend it?

I only need it to be delayed for 2-3 days so I won’t be taking it for a long term period. I usually have period cramps only on the first day, and some PMS symptoms like bloated and loss of appetite before that.
Been taking Evening Primrose Oil to help regulating my menses too.

Where to get nice & trendy bikini in KL /PJ area?

Aoko — Mon, 16 May 2016 23:24:33 +0800

As written in the topic, any particular shop that you'd personally recommend in KL/PJ/Subang area?

Just had a very bad purchasing experience with Summer Affaire (one of the most popular online swimwear store), hence I would prefer visiting a retail / physical shop so that I can inspect the quality of the bikini & try out the bikini before purchasing it on the spot.

I only have like less than 10 days before going on my vacation, hence any suggestions or experience sharings are welcome here
