My middle name is “adventure.” Though a self proclaimed geek and Certified Public Accountant, I often manipulate time and space to fit in crazy escapades like surfing, skating, cheerleading, karting and eating cow testicles.
The Flair Candy Blog contains my personal thoughts on Budget Traveling, Adventures and Sports, The Formula 1, a little bit of Photography and gadgets and many more. I collect hobbies!

I’m half-autistic and sometimes I have my own little world, a little geeky but also a social animal, I love sports, I love adventures (except camping), I love to party and dance! I know nothing about politics but would love to be enlightened someday. My mind is always open for learning. I watch a lot of science related TV series such as Fringe, Grey’s Anatomy and House M.D. I watch these not only to entertain myself but to gain accidental learning. I love National Geographic and Discovery Channel!
Any studies about the human brain fascinates me. I sometimes think I have ESP. I am a fast learner, and I owe it to my curiosity. I believe that the more you use your mind, the more you unlock its potential. Being curious makes me think a lot and reason with myself, it pushes me to observe and gives me courage to try new things and reach my dreams. I am a curious child asking too many questions that I answer by myself sometimes (which makes me even more confused).
“When you open your mind to the impossible, sometimes you find the truth.”
- Dr. Walter Bishop (Fringe)
I was once a bookworm but now I’m lazy to read. The book needs to capture my attention by the first 5 pages. Harry Potter, Angels and Demons and a few more books really got me going. I never finished reading Eclipse. I watched the movie instead. I love Paulo Coelho books.
I love looking good and I love taking care of myself. To me “Vanity” is not a sin, it is a virtue.
I believe that a right amount of vanity in your vein is a virtue and not a sin. Because if you are vain, you take care of yourself a lot. If you don’t take care of yourself… that just means you’re LAZY! That’s synonymous to “Sloth” which is part of the 7 deadly sins 
I also believe that no one is ugly — just lazy people! 
Feel free to argue with my twisted logic
Cameras I use:
1. Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5 – (deceased) the dude magnet… It took lovely underwater photos when used with underwater case or suit. However, it got drowned on one of my surftrips 
2. Nikon D40 DSLR with 18-55mm kit lens and 70-300mm G Nikkor zoom lens (for surfing and Formula 1 photography). This baby is lovely and it made me win 3rd and 1st place in one photography contest.
3. Panasonic Lumic LZ10 – my digital camera replacement for TZ5. I bought it for only Php 5,000 in Singapore yet in made me win a contest 
As of now, my Nikon D40′s kit lens is acting up… I’m trying to decide whether I buy a Nikon D90, a Panasonic Lumix GF1 or a Canon D7…
I am not alone in this blog…
I have my two cyber-bodyguards always. Jehz for blog maintenance and Winston for blog security. The theme header and footer is designed by Jehz. Web hosting and blog consultancy by Jehz. Winston is the only Batang Yagit na bodyguard! He secured and revived my blog when it was hacked the first time, the second time and the third time. Together with Jehz, my blog is now already 99.99% unhackable (if there is such a term).
I self-diagnosed myself with multiple personalities disorder:
Fast Candy: I am a fast learner. I don’t know if I’m just skillful enough or I just have what they call “beginner’s luck”.
iCandy: I am born to be techie… I just lurve tinkering with my new gadgets and gadgets of other people lol. I broke my PC several times because I attempt to fix them by trial and error… don’t worry I usually fix my stuff… my break to fix ratio is about 20:80 not a big of a problem right…?
Rockstar Candy: There’s no Dancing without music! I have been a dancer my whole life and music is simply a part of me Surf Candy: I am just simply getting addicted to surfing… surf around my blog to get a peek of my surfing photography and videos.
Green Candy: *wink* *wink* Coz I am green in all aspects (LOL) I love the color green, I love money coz it makes me do a lot of things, I love the environment and I am a nature lover… so remember… Reuse… Reduce… Recycle!
Love Candy: Because I am in search for my soulmate… and I quote Paulo Coelho
The whole of man’s life on the face of earth can be summed up by the search for his Soulmate. He may pretend to be running after wisdom, money or power, but none of that matters. Whatever he achieves will be incomplete if he fails to find his soulmate. - Brida, Paulo Coelho
Logic Candy: See above, plus I am a Math Wizard (I’m really such a proud sissy) geeez +_+’
Why Candy? Why is it all about the “Candy?” – ‘Coz candy comes with different colors and flavours. It can be sweet, sour, spicy and mint but almost never bitter
How about Flair you ask? ‘Coz I do all of the above with “Flair“
Flair means talent or elegance as per encarta’s definition:
flair [ fler ] noun Definition: 1. talent: a natural ability to do something well, especially creative or artistic ability 2. elegance: obvious elegance or stylishness
So now you know and that’s it for now… I believe there are more personalities to Candy and I will just add If I can remember… Or… you may suggest a personality of me if you may just drop some mail love here.
(x)flair + candy = Hannah
It’s like “flair” is variable and “candy” is constant. yep… that’s one gnarly way to describe me…
Welcome to Candy’s world!

Oh no, I am not sure if Heritage Hotel runs the Festival themselves. But I do know that they serve the “Hainanese Chicken Rice” at lease. You can probably contact them and ask if they also serve Mee Goreng and Laksa in their menu to be sure
