Feeling fat from savouring Singapore's never-ending food options? Want to work out but just can't seem to get your engine started? Or not willing to miss your favourite TV show because of gym?

Fret not. The OSIM uTrek is literally the best invention ever for couch potatoes (a.k.a the laziest people in the world who really know that they should work out to keep fit but never bothered finding time for it).

The machine comes with six different speeds, but you can choose the "type" of climb you want. Most importantly, it is a trekking machine. You can hike up Bukit Timah hill while fixing your eyes on your channel 8 drama. Killing two birds with one stone! No time wasted, and you get the best of both worlds.

This machine may not look it, but it will definitely make you break a sweat.

For storing purposes, you can fold it and slide it under beds or store in a corner.

I would recommend it to busy workaholics who have no time for the gym but possess a fervent desire to keep fit. Also, for people who are afraid of the sun and insects, you can trek at home and tone that ass in the comfort of your home.

No more reason for my mom to slack when watching her favourite dramas!

My mom's thoughts and review:

After giving birth to Jem, work and fatigue made me put on weight. Over time, diabetes also came with age, together with the lack of diet control and exercise. 

With the arrival of uTrek, I'm pleased to say that it is a stone that kills two birds. It is a breeze to watch tv while exercising! It is also user friendly and a storage after using is a walk in the park.

The gradient is standard but comes with 6 different speeds for everyone in the family.

Last but not least, thank you OSIM and The Influencer Network for sending me uTrek.

Burn fats, burn!

By the way, some good news to share!

Like any X'mas party there were lots of goodies and games for everyone. One of such game required me to stand in as a christmas tree. -.- Look at how pleasant I am.

Christmas trees of the night

Our 2nd game was to come out with a cheer that included 

Domino's, 50% off, Thank you, All pizzas and 15 minutes.

Dominos Dominos, 50% off.

jaw dropping and disbelief to some viewers.

Masego Safari Spa is the newest installation by Mary Chia Holdings that recently held the first-ever Halloween Spa Party in Singapore. I want to thank all who participated in the giveaway and also congratulations to those who have won! The party had various treats like head massage, ear candling and manicure. We had tons of fun taking selfies (of which I won the best instagram photo contest), enjoying ice cold beer as well as breathtaking performances. Sohgail and I made an appointment the week after the party for the full body massage complimentary from Mary Chia. Scroll down for the review for the body massage.

The day of the massage treat, we were warmly welcomed by the ladies dressed in SIA kebaya uniforms which I felt was pretty weird. Aren't there better uniforms?! Why copy our national airline's? haha 

Moving on, we were ushered to our separate changing rooms to prep for our massage.

The male toilet was spacious with lockers to safe-keep valuables. Showers were partitioned from the clothes hook, which I feel is thoughtful to prevent clean clothes from getting soaked while bathing. There is also a steam room at the far end of the toilet.

Safari themed massage beds are in tents rather than the usual rooms.

Safari-themed massage gowns which I think looks fugly and wasn't properly washed as it reeked of stale yucky stench.

Nonetheless, we enjoyed ourselves and it was a worthy 

day off away from our assignments and exams.

Prices are pretty affordable compared to those that I frequent at malls but one thing for sure is that the location has gotta be a letdown. I'll recommend this place to those who stay in the west or those who study at Pulau NTU like me. 

Drive there if you can, 

you'll thank me for that.

Also another late review all the way back from halloween due to exams. 

SYNC has done it again! 

Launching yet another innovative korean cuisine in our little red dot. 

Allow me to introduce Singapore's first ever Korean tapas bar 

that paved it's way to Serangoon Gardens,

SYNC Korean Tapas Bar

The owners got their concept and inspiration from their frequent travels to Korea and sparked their interest and passion about Korean cuisines. Since I attended my student exchange in Seoul National University, I AM REALLY EXCITED to be able to share this with all of you! Like Koreans, I am big on alcohol and munchies(tapas). Maybe I can be an owner of such a store in the future too. haha.

Everyone who is on the Hallyu wave like me... 

LETS GO!

what's halloween without some deco

김치

Kimchi

S$9.90

Korean meals are never complete without their favourite 반찬(side dish), kimchi. This is currently the best tasting kimchi I have tasted in Singapore. No kidding. 

Spicy and tangy. *thumbs up*

해물과자

Crackling

S$9.90

crackling of umami cod chips

fragrant and unstoppable! 

소고기 깻싶쌈

Sogogi Jowl

S$10.90

char-grilled beef jowl in hoba & garlic confit

I will be broke from over-ordering this as the beef cheeks are freaking tender and freaking delicious. Best combination with soju.

교자만두

Mandu

S$9.90

crispy minced pork & mushroom dumpling, salsa

Another excellent tapas with drinks. Very flavourful and addictive!

닭강정

Dak-Kangjung

S$9.90

deep-fried sweet & spicy chicken bites, ricotta, chili tempura

Spicy tender chicken with enough fats to make it juicy but not overly overpowering. 

삼겹살

S$10.90

char-grilled pork belly with scallion salad& chili yuzu dressing

Meat was crispy like bacon and the sauce was balanced and goes really well with the salad.

닭갈비 빠에야

Chicken Paella

S$38.90

spicy chicken paella with onions, mushroom, cabbage, sausage, kimchi

This paella dish wasn't readily accepted by my taste buds. The spiciness, sourness and tomatoes were somewhat conflicting and having a war in my mouth. Weird, I feel.

호떡

Hotteok

S$8.90

pan-fried chewy sweet korean pancake with banana foster (add S$1.50 for vanilla ice cream)

The sweet pancake had a really nice texture. Somewhat like chewy rice with chunky nuts in there. And the caramelized bananas sealed the deal for me. This is something I would whip up in the kitchen for my family! Delicious! 

미 슷 가루

Misugaru

S$8.90

misugaru lava cake, vanilla ice cream, strawberries & lime compote

Lava cake that was made with 12 types of grains. Apart from it being a lava cake which I love. I would prefer the matcha version that I tried previously at their SYNC outlet at Westgate.

Soju Mojito

S$9.90

I am missing my soju from korea. 1000won (about $1.50) a bottle. 

Soju Peach Shot

S$7.90

SYNC Korean Tapas Bar is definitely a legit place to chill and hang out with friends if you're looking for alcohol and snacks to go along with it. Not sure about you, but I feel that Serangoon gardens can be a little inconvenient to get to or leave from and parking is always always always a bitch. To drivers, please refrain from drinking(which can be very challenging) or just don't drive there at all.

Stay safe drivers!

SYNC Korean Tapas Bar is a YES for me!
