What's new


My New 18 Shades eye shadow pallet by mac. 
Love this because it only has the colors that i use. 
Unlike those pallets which have colors which i won't use at all. 



4 pairs of fake eyelashes from honeycolor. 





You all know how i have curly hair. and how i hate them. 
How i have to sit 4 hours in the saloon to straighten my hair. 
And to cut my hair cz of the damage straightening has caused me. 
Which leads to me who is not able to grow my hair super long and nice. 
But now, Keratin Hair Taming System (Shampoo and conditioner) is something that has keratin and juvenix. It repairs my hair from the inside, making my hair much more volume and heavier and straighter. Heard of hair straightening shampoo? This is it. and i finally found it and got it. 
Have been using it for 2 days, Never loving anything better than this. 
My hair has smoothen down SO MUCH, and fringe is no longer a curry puff and flying everywhere. I will stick to this forever. =)






And finally would be my Dior Addict Kate Moss Lip Stick. 
It's so moisturizing and hydrating and long lasting color.
Can't wait for my Serum de Rouge to arrive.

Being Flawless: My Story

Everyone wants that flawless skin. For us asians? Not just flawless, but also the fair skin which is beyond reach. 
Most of us asians don't like to be tanned, Cz being tanned doesn't bring out the glow of our skin. 
To me, it makes me feel dull. No shine, No Glowing. 
Angeline Jolie is no asian, but being the ambassador of Shiseido, she doesn't fail to have nice skin too. 
Ok, that picture is DEFINATELY photoshopped and airbrush. which magazine and billboard isn't right?
But still, she doesn't have bad skin either!
I know it's impossible to have airbrushed flawless skin. BUT, at least we try our best to get close to what we desire. RIGHT?
Having flawless skin does not really make you feel better, it also helps with make up. 
1. Say bye bye to cake layer make-up
2. You do not need BB cream, and base, together with foundation and primer (that's a hell lot of make up there by itself)
Your skin can't even breathe...
3. No more HUGE cover up. 
4. You can wear light make up and still look pretty. 


I used to have Freckles. Well, i still have a little now, it's just not that obvious anymore. 
I hated it. Cz How often do you come across a 22 year old asian girl who has freckles on her cheeks? 
I hated it. I always needed concealer to cover it up. and face powder for it of course. 



I have tried so many whitening/anti-freckle product. 
But, it still didn't help much. PLUS, i have skin that goes red. (the natural blush)
But i hate it, cz it doesn't look like a nice blush. It looks like redness rash spot/allergy. 
Right at the apple of the cheeks, During the day, it gets even red due to the sun (again)


So much for having the sun around, that was one reason i hated the sun, you can ask my sister. LOL
How i needed an umbrella wherever i went, and a sun block in my handbag. 
Not just having that, i'm pretty particular with my sun-block/sunscreen too. 

I used to be using the Shiseido Pureness range meant for oily skin or normal skin. 
But i have now changed to White lucent. 
I didn't not et the big bottle where you get from the counter as i had the same question everyone would have in their head ''Does it really work?""
Although, it's shiseido and they have never failed to achieve the costumers needs. 
I bought the trial kit set instead. it was $69 For the set. that comes with 
1. 75ml Brightening Cleansing Foam
2. 75ml Brightening Balancing Softener
3. 30ml Brightening Protective Emulsion spf 15 PA++ (DAY)
and i bought the Brightening Moisturising Emulsion(Night) For restore and night treatment
The full range (top image)

This was how the box looks like inside. It comes with instructions and everything that you need to know. 
The White Lucent range brightens up your complexion and eliminates dark circle, freckles, birth mark (it doesn't make it go away. but it lightens it), and age spots. 
It has dual vitamin C in it. That is what brightens it up. 


The three small trial bottles that i have. 



 I have been using it for 3 weeks, and i'm loving it. 
No more redness and my freckles are going away. 
I know the cons of it is that it's expensive and it's considered the luxury range, but it's worth every cent spent on it. (it never goes to waste)
before this i was using the Etude House O2 white range, which was pretty good, but wasn't as effective as the shiseido one. 
The Christian Dior Snow range for whitening is really good too. But i guess i'd be sticking with shiseido unless i get a free sample for the CD Snow, then i'd try it out and do a review on it. 
This is the Body shop Vitamin C Eye Reviver Duo $29 (The Body Shop)
It gives ultimate Vitamin C. and helps get rid of Dark circles, puffy eyes, tired eyes, dull eyes.
It comes in day and night application. 
It's really good. DOesn't smell too bad. Makes you feel like eating orange too 




So that's my flawless skin secret. =)

Just go with it. ❤

Another movie by Jennifer Aniston and Adam Sandler. 

I love Jennifer Aniston. 
This filmed was released on Febuary 11th 2011, Jennifer's 42nd birthday. 
She doesn't look 42 to me. HAHAHAA. i love her since "Friends"

I won't give out any spoiler. 
but you GOTTA watch this. It's funny and it's quite true though. 
Relationships and everything. I can say my relationship was something that went with the flow. well, sort off. HAHAHA

nicole Kidman was in this movie. but i didn't really recognise her. Cz she had auburn hair instead of the normal blonde which she usually is. =D
Don't know what to watch? Go watch it. 




i came across this video on facebook. About relationship, which is really true. 
How each step we take and how things work out in a matter of time. 
i actually teared watching this, i felt like it's so true. 
and it made me realized that i have to actually do something to spice things up. 
Rather than argue argue argue walk away run away argue yell shout and wtv it is that relationship do. 
I guess it's all about how we handle and solve the problems that exist. 




i still love you baby. For all the arguments that we've have and everything that we kept quiet about and want to walk away from. I'd build up my tolerance for you. =D

Hide and Seek

Before you go on reading. I've got to say this is not an ordinary blog post. Not a review, not a product, not a trip or whatever. This is an assignment of mine based on TRUE STORY. i used back the same name, same story. Maybe i added and changed a little cause i was only four. I don't remember much do i? If you wish to continue reading my 1500k word story. i will not stop you. But please bear with my grammar or vocab mistakes, or whatever mistakes that you come along. 
This is my second writing assignment (i have never written anything like that). I am beginning to like this unit. I spent more time on it rather than my main course units, maybe it's because it's not as stressful. So here it is..


It's call Hide and Seek. 

Chapter I: The Journey
There were once two children, called Carol and Catherine who were seven and four years old. All their lives they had lived in a town, but because their father had a busy job as a doctor, he was never home, so they they loved it when holiday comes and they can visit their cousins and play with them. 
“What fun would it be when we visit Colin and Christopher next week!” said Carol. “It’s been a year since we’ve seen them, i wonder how they’ve been!”
When the day came to visit their cousins, both of the girls were so excited. Their mother had packed everything for them for the weekend and their father got the car ready and pile everything into it. The children put on their coats and shoes and got into the car. 
“Now we’re off!” cried Carol.
“Off we go!” sang Catherine. 
So they started their journey, it was a three hour journey to their cousins place. The girls pressed their noses to the window and watched the houses pass by, the trees and the valleys race by. How excited they were, naming everything they see as they pass by. 
At last they arrived at last at their cousins place and it was worth the drive. The two girls couldn’t wait to get out of the car so they can play with their cousins. Two exciting boys, Christopher and Colin stood at their front door waiting for their two cousins to arrive so they could play together. 
“Run along and play together!” said their mother. “And Carol, take care of your little sister!” So off the four children went.
Chapter II: The Game
“What should we play?” asked Colin.
“What about a game of hide and seek?” said Carol, in delight. “We shall at least play something, and it’s fun!”
“I’m fine with anything.” said Christopher. 
“Ok! I guess you both know how to play this game right? I’d be it! i’d count to ten and i’d start finding you!” said Carol. 
“yea we do!” said Colin. And off he and Christopher went to hide. 
“Go find a place to hide and don’t come out no matter how many times people call out your name. Here’s a bag of gummy bears. Go! Don’t follow me.” said Carol to Catherine, and off Catherine went to find a place to hide. 
“Ten...Nine...Eight...Seven...Six...Five...Four...Three...Two...One...Ready or not, here i come!” yelled Carol as the game started. 
Carol started looking in the kitchen, in the cupboard. She opens the kitchen cupboard door by door, but she found no one. Then, she went into the living room to search, under the couch, in the store room, but still no one was to be found.  Carol went upstairs to check.
“Found you!” said Carol as she tapped Colin who was hiding under the bed.
“I didn’t expect me to be the first for you to find!” said Colin, “but let’s go find the others.”
As Carol and Colin search the room, they found Christopher hiding in the cupboard in another room. 
“Aw! That’s not fair, why couldn’t you find Catherine first?” said Christopher being unhappy that he wasn’t the last to be found. 
“Come on,” said Colin “Let’s find Catherine.”
“Catherine! Catherine! Catherine! Come out, come out wherever you are!”
But Catherine was no where to be found, not a word, not sound from her. They thought she was going to jump out and scare them any moment, but there was nothing. 
Chapter III: The Missing Girl
Carol, Colin and Christopher searched up and down for Catherine. They looked into every door, room, cupboard, cabinet, toilet, store room, even the garage and the car, but Catherine was still no where to be found. They were beginning to feel frustrated and tired, they started screaming.
“Catherine...Catherine...Catherine...!” but still no reply and she was no where to be found. 
The three children screamed so much that their fathers and mothers begin to wonder what has happened. Carol, being the eldest told them that they were playing hide and seek but Catherine was no where to be found after so long.
Their father and mother was worried as Catherine was only four years old. 
“Where could she be?” said father, sounding a little worried. Mother begin to search upstairs while Father search downstairs, but Catherine was still not found. 
“Let’s check outside, maybe she went out to play?” said mother. 
“Yes, Carol, Colin and Christopher. You stay in the house while we go outside to search for Catherine.” said father to the three children. 
Father starting searching the garage, every cabinet and corner that is possible for Catherine to fit in. Then they started asking the neighbors, “Excuse me, but have you seen my little girl? Small, four year old. Black hair, fair skin with rosy cheeks. Wearing a pink dress and a ribbon on her ponytail.” said father, sounding really worried.
“No, i’m sorry. I haven’t seen her. “ said the neighbor, “but i’d have a look out. I can help you ask around the neighbors as well.”
“Thank you so much.” said father. 
So off they went asking house by house and soon the whole street was searching for Catherine. Everyone started searching their houses, their cars, their garage, their outdoor gardens, but still, nothing was found. 
Where could she be? Has she been kidnapped? What could have happened to her? 
After an hour or two, they decided to make a police report. They felt like it was the only way and hope that the police might be able to find Catherine. 
“Oh dear! Where could she be?” cried mother. “Oh Catherine, where are you?”
“I’m sorry my dear, we will find her. She couldn’t have gotten far.” Said father trying to stay strong to comfort mother. So father and mother went home to get ready. 
Chapeter IV: Daddy finds Something
“Did you find her?” said Carol as her father and mother stepped into the house. 
“No, i’m sorry honey, we did not.” said father softly.
Carol turned and sat on the sofa, tears running down her cheeks as she wonder what could have happened. “We shouldn’t have played that game!” said Carol as she started crying. 
“No honey! It’s not your fault. Don’t blame yourself for it.” said mother as she hugged Carol. “Come on, let’s get ready. we’re going to ask help from the police to find Catherine. So don’t worry. okay?”
“Ok. I guess Mr. Policeman can help us find Catherine.” said Carol softly as she get up. 
Father had to go to the toilet to take a dump before they go to the police station. “Daddy, do you want some sweets?” he heard his daughter. “No darling, not now! Run along” said father restlessly. “Ok!” she replied. Father turned to realized that it was his little Catherine, sitting next to the toilet bowl with a bag of gummy bears in her hand smiling towards him. 
“Catherine! Why are you here?” asked father anxiously. 
“We’re playing hide and seek daddy! Do you wanna play?” said Catherine not knowing what was going on outside. 
“No! Why did you not come out? Why didn’t you reply when everyone called you?” asked the confused but relieved father. 
“Because Carol told me not to come out no matter how many times my name has been called, it’s the rules daddy!” said Catherine. 
“Oh dear!” said father as he sat there feeling relieved. Father got up and picked Catherine up and went downstairs. “Honey! I found her!” he yelled as he walked down the stairs. Everyone started jumping and running towards the living room where Catherine and her father was not believing their eyes that she was there sitting in the living room. 
Chapter V: Everything is Alright
“Where was she? How did you find her?” asked their mother. Feeling so happy that she cried with joy, knowing that her little Catherine was now safe and back in her arms again. 
“She was hiding next to the toilet bowl in the toilet upstairs!” said their father. “I wonder how we even missed that when we searched the toilet.”
“You missed me! You came in and searched the cabinet but you did not search the toilet bowl, so you didn’t see me!” said Catherine. Carol, Colin and Christopher hugged Catherine who seemed clueless. “Does that mean that i win?” said Catherine beamingly. 
Everyone was glad that Catherine was lost and they were just a step away from making a police report. Wouldn’t it be funny if the police came to find Catherine sitting next to the toilet bowl? From that day onwards, the four children did not play hide and seek anymore as they were afraid little Catherine would find a better place to hide and now know when to come out. They had a great weekend with BBQ at night in the backyard, they invited their neighbors as well who helped the search for missing Catherine.  They went to the amusement park together with their cousin and by the end of their weekend, they had to go back home. They weren’t exciting to go home, but at least they had a story they could laugh about when they grow up. About how little Catherine went missing.

baby lips

Hate those chapped lips? 
Nomatter how many applications of lip balm u put on, 
they still get dried, 
You still get chapped lips. 
It looks as if the outer layer of your skin on the lips are peeling off but yet you can't peel them off because it's stuck to ur lips?
You can't apply lipstick properly because it'll be obvious that you have ugly lips. 
You would need gloss to make it look glossy and pretty. 


Well, that's the problem i've been having for like...
as long as i can remember. 
SERIOUS!! i hated it. 
i'd wake up in the morning with super dry lips.
And during winter, they'll tear and bleed and ugh. not pretty. not nice. 

i have found the solution to it. 
I used to use Lipice. from Metholatum. They have it in different color different flavour. 
and for all these years, that was the best that i found. 
but i still get dry lips. 

but now!! we have Maybelline Baby Lips. 

It comes in four flavours
- Energizing Orange
- Smoothing Cherry
-Menthol
- Antioxdant Berry. 


The one i have is in Antioxidant Berry. 
it has a berry flavour but it's not strong. 
On the first day of the application, like the very first time, i could feel the moisture for like hours. 
well, unless i keep licking it every single second which i do because i keep checking if it's moist, and i'll be going 'OMG! it'll still moist!'' 
So yea, that proves it, the second thing that it does is. 
all that dried dead chapped skin layer u have? it helps u peel it off. 
It's a little gross/disgusting . but u don't have to peel it or what. 
it comes off when you brush ur teeth/wash ur lips/mouth. 
And after that, i assure you'd be applying it also. 
You won't have that dead skin layer ANYMORE!!

It's a little addictive it applying it. but it's okay. 
this is my third day using it. 
and i don't have any dry lips or extra skin peeling off. 
I apply a layer before i sleep and wake up in the morning with moist lips. 



Asides from that, this one contains antioxidant, 
and as we all know, antioxidant is important for us as well.
my lips looks lighter and pinker now. 
WITHOUT lipstick or what so. 
it's because of the vitamin that this lip balm has. 
and it also has SPF20 AND also protective against the UV rays. 
which is important. Some of us, our lips get tanner without us noticing as we always have lipstick and stuff to cover it up.
But to have healthy pink natural lips. wouldn't you want it? 

and it has a guarantee of a healthy repaired reborn lips in 4 weeks.
Today is my third day, i'm blogging about it and i believe in it. 
So if you have troubles with lip balm and lips. 
This is your solution.

and it's just so fluffy. 
Though it's not as fluffy as G-Force. HAHAHAa. but it's still great. =D
This movie is so true about life, (for most of us) where our parents are bugging us to just get a job, 
but we want a job that's AMAZINGGGG and just loving it. 
well, this proves, SET YOUR DREAM, work towards it, 
and one day u will get it. 

So, should you watch this movie? YES!!!!

what happens if you lost your phone?

What would have happened to you? If you lost your phone...
So far, i haven't lost any in misplacing or left them somewhere. 
My phone got stolen. TWICE!!!. damn them. i know who they are. 
Anyway, it was a bad year for me that year. 

YESTERDAY, we were meant to go for our weekly movie session at Carousel cannington. 
BUT, unfortunately the boyf lost his phone. So i decided to just skip the movie. 
He looked REALLY pissed off.

I know many people that say 'oh! there's a reason to get a new phone again!'
YES indeed. 
But the memories in there and everything we have. 
That's what matters. 

To tell you the truth, i was pretty pissed off, but i know showing it doesn't do anything either. 
SO,
i called the network, 
i called Apple, 
i called the Bus service! Who played Take Over Control by Afrojack when she put me on hold.

Nothing could be done. 
I called the phone 27 times! like really long ringing call till i get the no-one-picking-up thing. 

I wanted to gave up and just go to sleep so that i won't be pissed and annoy the boyfriend who was pissed off and annoyed and stressed out as well. 
HE even asked me if i wasn't worried because of all my pictures and videos. 
i was like HELL I AM!! if i ever see any on gutter uncensored or any website i will track them down and kill them!. 
Not that there's any naked or porn in his phone. 
BUT STILL!!. 

To me i felt like it wasn't just a phone, it was our memories. 
BOTH of us wanted an iphone for so long, like since 2007 when it first came out, but we didn't really get it. Like there wasn't the urge/motivation. 
Till i came to perth. LDR was hard i tell you. and internet was the ONLY connection that brought us together. 
I got the iphone under the contract, so i didn't have to pay extra or anything. And then HE got it cz i had one. 
and i can tell you, the iphone brought us so much more close together. 
It was like the we-phone. 



All the applications that brought us together. i use to have MORE!. (this was taken now/today)
Last year, i had 2 pages all of application to chat or call or wtv it is. 
The most common we used was Yak Messenger. 
Which we chat like SMS. sending msg'ed day and night 24/7, keeping us connected. (NOT NOKIA ANYMORE! SORRY)
And how we send videos to each other. FOR FREE! internet data was all we needed. 


OR him asking how's my class. ( IT DOES make a difference okay!!! he rarely ask me that now anymore. LOL)
and how he use to send videos of hazel. (*sigh* how i miss her RIGHT NOW!)






Then came alone What'sapp. Because Yak Messenger always had to update,
and you have to wait for it to sync and receive data or wtv it is everytime you open the app. 
and what'sapp was only $0.99. i can't be stingy bout THAT!!! so we got it!. 





it was so much more easier!!!
sending pictures just to cheer me up knowing i'm unhappy!
HE ALWAYS knows i'm unhappy, like i didn't have to ask him or tell him that i was unhappy. He JUST KNOWS IT. 
well, i guess that's what boyfriends are for right? =D i love you baby. 


SO YES!!!, after everything, i was lying in bed, trying to watch tv and forget my emotional and just calling for the sake of calling.
AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN!!!!
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
..
.
.
.
.
.
.
I hear a girl's voice 'He..lllooo?''
.
.
.
.
.
.


I literally jumped up and sat up in bed and said ''HELLO!!!!''
And she asked me ''Erm. Are you the owner of this phone!''
i was thinking ''HELL I AM!! '' but i just said ''YES! erm.. Are you the one that picked up my phone?'' (technically it wasn't MINE. but since it's the we-phone, so it's considered mine too. LOL)
So She said yea and told me she was on the 208 bus going to Carlisle Train Station. I told her i'd meet her there, got her name. 
Called the cab and left!. 
On the way, i was wondering, we took the 34 bus, how did it end up on the 208 bus??
Either the bus change route! Or some ass hole was playing games.
Cz when i called the bus service, she did told me that kids will pick it up and just bring it to another bus to leave it there. such prank huh?

So yea, we reached, finally saw her. 
She was really young over the phone. Courtney, that's her name. 
And when i saw her, she was like 14?15? still a school girl in her uniform and carrying her heavy bag. 
She was with her mom/sister/someone close but older. So yea..
OMFG!!! THANK YOU COURTNEY!!! i know she doesn't read this. 
BUT, she'd have a good repay by mother nature. 

So yea, baby got his phone back. 
i wonder what he thinks and feel, he was being pretty quite and NOT SAID a word bout it. 
Maybe he was worried about the contacts inside. 
Then he'd be thinking 'DAMN! i'd have to tell everyone my new number!' LOL!!. nvm! we ignore him!!!!!
i'm such an evil person right? But now he's getting anew phone because he can't use his number. technically not his and it's complicated. so yea...

I still remember the time i knew someone stole it. i was so pissed off even i knew who it was. nvm! karma will get to them.

Red Riding Hood

We all know the story of the Little Red Riding Hood. 
Well, most of us do. Don't we? 

The 2011 Remake of Red Riding hood. 

"believe the Legend, beware the wolf"
This movie left me and baby guessing all the time who was the wolf. 
It was pretty interesting as we kept thinking it was the lover or the fiancee then moved to the grandma. 
In the end, it turned out to be someone whom didn't even cross our mind. 

I feel it's pretty interesting as we always guess who the killer is or who did it, 
and most of the time we are partly correct. 

It's lucky the movie didn't dragged on too long, If not, we would feel so uncomfortable thinking 
''Come one! when will this end?"




I'd say Amanda Seyfield did a pretty good job in it. 
Me and baby was thinking of Dakota Fanning all the time. LOL!!. 
They do look similar in a way. 









She's pretty pretty isn't she? 
If you were once someone who loved fairy tales, you gotta watch it. 
If you were someone who loves wolves, watch it. =D
