Tea Salon With An Old World Charm

Guess where? Yeah, it's TWG Tea Salon & Boutique @ Orchard ION.


I love the revolving centerpiece holding all the different tins of lovely tea leaves. And the many TWG Tea Exclusive Blends.

I had a pot of Mistral Tea with a lovely smell. And the jam for the scones was simply divine. Simply because the jams are infused with their own tea blends. Mmmmm....

Feeling Inspired


I haven't been blogging in all my blogs for some time. The usual getting caught up with work, busy with making money and achieving my goals got in the way of blogging.

Yet somehow, I feel inspired today. Inspired by the people I met today. To remind myself of my dreams and to enjoy the process of it all. 

And the above picture says it all. It's a painting inspired by Vincent Van Gogh's Starry Starry Night. One of my favourite paintings and songs.


Enjoy your day! =)

Mochamp at Raffles Xchange, Raffles Place MRT Shopping - BAD Customer Service

I always wonder why people who dislike serving ends up in the service line. 


Just last week, I met a very rude saleswoman from Mochamp (#B1-56) at Raffles Xchange. The shop was running a massive sale and I decided to buy a top and a dress. 

However, the top was faulty with torn lace. The salesperson sewed the torn portion and and told me that it'll do but I noticed the another tear along the lace. The top was white (the torn portion will show up more clearly against my skin tone) and with 2 tears, I contemplated before trying my luck by asking for a discount as I really liked it. And I did this in a nice and polite tone.

The lady curtly replied that the top was already discounted and the torn portion mended. I pointed out the next tear to her and she so very rudely snatched the top from my hand. Putting it next to her, she said in a rude tone that I shouldn't buy it then and proceeded to ask for my payment for the dress.

I told her I wasn't going to get it because she was so rude and walked out from the shop.

I couldn't believe that this salesperson thought that I would still want to part with my money with this kind of attitude of hers! She should not be in the service line if she doesn't want to serve.

Even if the dress cost a dirt cheap amount of $1, I'll still not pay her a single cent. Her service is cheap but I am not!
