我以為你特別為我做的事, 其實你為誰都可以做...

A late valentines note...

2012-02-15T18:36:00.010-08:00

Nobody understands why I fell for you. Thats because others don't know how i fell for you. What makes you even more special to me is that being with you was so unexpected, all these feelings for you are all so unexpected, yet it grew so naturally. Nobody sees how you say goodnight before you sleep, or the goodmorning baby every morning you wake up. All the phone calls and facetimes throughout the day. Nobody knows how you look deep into my eyes when you say I love you baby. The warmth I get from your arms tight around me when we sleep, with me snuggling against your chest listening to your heartbeat and falling for you over and over again. I don't take these things for granted because I know people change and feelings fade. I can't change that fact but what I can do is really appreciate everytime we are together and all the things you do for me. It really is the little things that matters the most. I really do appreciate your existence in my life because I know 幸福不是必然.

I know I'm not the easiest to handle when I go into a strop. And it aggrevates me even more when you push problems aside and let me be angry on my own. But I guess different people have different ways to deal with situations. A relationship needs mutual respect and compromise. And I have faith that in time you will bring the best out of me. ♥

Married or not... you should read this. MARRIAGE

2012-02-04T10:29:00.000-08:00

I read this on the internet and want to share it with you all... it's such a touching story which we should all learn from before we regret it one day...

“When I got home that night as my wife served dinner, I held her hand and said, I’ve got something to tell you. She sat down and ate quietly. Again I observed the hurt in her eyes.

Suddenly I didn’t know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know what I was thinking. I want a divorce. I raised the topic calmly. She didn’t seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly, why?

I avoided her question. This made her angry. She threw away the chopsticks and shouted at me, you are not a man! That night, we didn’t talk to each other. She was weeping. I knew she wanted to find out what had happened to our marriage. But I could hardly give her a satisfactory answer; she had lost my heart to Jane. I didn’t love her anymore. I just pitied her!

With a deep sense of guilt, I drafted a divorce agreement which stated that she could own our house, our car, and 30% stake of my company. She glanced at it and then tore it into pieces. The woman who had spent ten years of her life with me had become a stranger. I felt sorry for her wasted time, resources and energy but I could not take back what I had said for I loved Jane so dearly. Finally she cried loudly in front of me, which was what I had expected to see. To me her cry was actually a kind of release. The idea of divorce which had obsessed me for several weeks seemed to be firmer and clearer now.

The next day, I came back home very late and found her writing something at the table. I didn’t have supper but went straight to sleep and fell asleep very fast because I was tired after an eventful day with Jane. When I woke up, she was still there at the table writing. I just did not care so I turned over and was asleep again.

In the morning she presented her divorce conditions: she didn’t want anything from me, but needed a month’s notice before the divorce. She requested that in that one month we both struggle to live as normal a life as possible. Her reasons were simple: our son had his exams in a month’s time and she didn’t want to disrupt him with our broken marriage.

This was agreeable to me. But she had something more, she asked me to recall how I had carried her into out bridal room on our wedding day. She requested that every day for the month’s duration I carry her out of our bedroom to the front door ever morning. I thought she was going crazy. Just to make our last days together bearable I accepted her odd request.

I told Jane about my wife’s divorce conditions. . She laughed loudly and thought it was absurd. No matter what tricks she applies, she has to face the divorce, she said scornfully.

My wife and I hadn’t had any body contact since my divorce intention was explicitly expressed. So when I carried her out on the first day, we both appeared clumsy. Our son clapped behind us, daddy is holding mommy in his arms. His words brought me a sense of pain. From the bedroom to the sitting room, then to the door, I walked over ten meters with her in my arms. She closed her eyes and said softly; don’t tell our son about the divorce. I nodded, feeling somewhat upset. I put her down outside the door. She went to wait for the bus to work. I drove alone to the office.

On the second day, both of us acted much more easily. She leaned on my chest. I could smell the fragrance of her blouse. I realized that I hadn’t looked at this woman carefully for a long time. I realized she was not young any more. There were fine wrinkles on her face, her hair was graying! Our marriage had taken its toll on her. For a minute I wondered what I had done to her.

On the fourth day, when I lifted her up, I felt a sense of intimacy returning. This was the woman who had given ten years of her life to me. On the fifth and sixth day, I realized that our sense of intimacy was growing again. I didn’t tell Jane about this. It became easier to carry her as the month slipped by. Perhaps the everyday workout made me stronger.

She was choosing what to wear one morning. She tried on quite a few dresses but could not find a suitable one. Then she sighed, all my dresses have grown bigger. I suddenly realized that she had grown so thin, that was the reason why I could carry her more easily.

Suddenly it hit me… she had buried so much pain and bitterness in her heart. Subconsciously I reached out and touched her head.

Our son came in at the moment and said, Dad, it’s time to carry mom out. To him, seeing his father carrying his mother out had become an essential part of his life. My wife gestured to our son to come closer and hugged him tightly. I turned my face away because I was afraid I might change my mind at this last minute. I then held her in my arms, walking from the bedroom, through the sitting room, to the hallway. Her hand surrounded my neck softly and naturally. I held her body tightly; it was just like our wedding day.

But her much lighter weight made me sad. On the last day, when I held her in my arms I could hardly move a step. Our son had gone to school. I held her tightly and said, I hadn’t noticed that our life lacked intimacy. I drove to office…. jumped out of the car swiftly without locking the door. I was afraid any delay would make me change my mind…I walked upstairs. Jane opened the door and I said to her, Sorry, Jane, I do not want the divorce anymore.

She looked at me, astonished, and then touched my forehead. Do you have a fever? She said. I moved her hand off my head. Sorry, Jane, I said, I won’t divorce. My marriage life was boring probably because she and I didn’t value the details of our lives, not because we didn’t love each other anymore. Now I realize that since I carried her into my home on our wedding day I am supposed to hold her until death do us apart. Jane seemed to suddenly wake up. She gave me a loud slap and then slammed the door and burst into tears. I walked downstairs and drove away. At the floral shop on the way, I ordered a bouquet of flowers for my wife. The salesgirl asked me what to write on the card. I smiled and wrote, I’ll carry you out every morning until death do us apart.

That evening I arrived home, flowers in my hands, a smile on my face, I run up stairs, only to find my wife in the bed - dead. My wife had been fighting CANCER for months and I was so busy with Jane to even notice. She knew that she would die soon and she wanted to save me from the whatever negative reaction from our son, in case we push through with the divorce.— At least, in the eyes of our son—- I’m a loving husband….

The small details of your lives are what really matter in a relationship. It is not the mansion, the car, property, the money in the bank. These create an environment conducive for happiness but cannot give happiness in themselves.

So find time to be your spouse’s friend and do those little things for each other that build intimacy. Do have a real happy marriage!

If you don’t share this, nothing will happen to you.

If you do, you just might save a marriage. Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.”

No more exams for 5 months yayayay!

2012-01-14T09:12:00.000-08:00

Yay finally free from all my exams and assignments! So on monday i had two exams.. accounts and managing people and performance. Accounts was harder than the past papers i've previously done, but im just hoping for a pass. Went back to Birmingham for dinner, we couldnt decide for agees where to eat but we ended up with miller & carter. Was so full! Havnt had a proper 3 course dinner in ages, i usually only go through 2 course then im baodoabao! Km went home after so we went to watch Goon~ its actually not bad, quite funny. Was a nice evening seeing my fav people after my exams ♥

Happy 2012!

2012-01-07T09:00:00.000-08:00

So Christmas didn't really do much apart from eat with the family.. and Boxing day went out to party. I didn't like christmas this year, 2010 xmas was better, at least more cheery and happy. But New Years was nice with some sweet people with me =)

2012 ~ I have a feeling this is going to be a really good year because I have someone special and some really sweet friends in my life ♥ And it has been so far so good. Went london on 3rd Jan which was sweeet hehe.. iv already seen deeekhead for 5 days this year and its only the 8th Jan!

Super happy cus had my first korean finally ^_^

No specific new year resolutions this year, maybe because i already know what i have to do.. Iv learnt that time is really precious, don't sit and dwell on the past, let it go if it's not right! We live for the future, not the past. Memories can be nice and as much as i don't like to admit it, it is the only thing that doesnt change when everything else does, which is why it is so hard to let go of sometimes. But we can only learn from memories, we can't go back to them. Instead of wanting to go back in time, you can only try to make the times you do have.. better.

2012: 要快樂, 要開朗, 對人要真誠, 要寬容, 要有平常心. 對於困境與磨難, 微笑面對.

~*人與人的交往一定要有誠信。你自己沒有誠信就不要要求別人對你有誠信*~

December

Another year is passing, I used to like decembers but now, uhm, i dunno. This is the time of year where people like to make amends to their lives. Things have changed so much from Dec 2010 to Dec 2011. I wonder where Dec 2012 will take me...

I've been asking myself the same question for a while now... if I'm not bothered about something, does it mean it isn't actually that important to me or is it I have matured to look pass these little things? But I've always thought that you only have strong emotions for things or people who are important to you and you really care about. So is it i now have a better temper to not be bothered or i dont actually care as much i thought i did? I guess only time can tell me....

以前D人和事..總是在我的腦海.. 不知道為什麼.. 可能因為我gum大個女, 只有兩個好好的朋友從來沒有放棄過我.. 永遠都在我身邊.. 但現在一切都改變..

記得...

誰還記得　是誰先說永遠的愛我 以前的一句話　是我們以後的傷口
過了太久　沒人記得當初那些溫柔 我和你手牽手　說要一起走到最後

Trust...

2011-11-11T13:45:00.000-08:00

There are many types of trust out there. But the two that is bugging me right now is trust between friendship and trust between a relationship.

'Friends come and go', and i've learnt this concept ages ago. It might sound really negative but to be honest, this has actually made me cherish even more my friends who have stayed! Trust between friends.. I dont really know where to start. Yeah i do trust my friends.. but i dont trust them either. Ok let me rephrase this, I dont trust all of them. And thats simply because not every friend is important and not everyone affects me the same way. When it involves friends who are important to me, i do get upset and frustrated, and a lot of the times, i turn to blogging. Its like the only place where i can just express how i feel. When i trust someone, i expect a to be trusted too. Not because i feel if they blab my business i can blab theirs too. But because i dont think you can truly trust someone without feeling your important to them and you can be trusted too! It's when I find out that i cant be trusted by someone i trust, thats what upsets me!
And thats what makes me think of the phrase that one of my closest friend has always told me. 'Trust nobody but yourself'

Next. Trust between someone who you have affection for. People tend to like the idea of trusting the person they like, instead of actually trusting them. I used to be the girl who would say 'i trust the guy, i just dont trust the other girls' but thinking back, at the time when i said it, it was actually the guy i didnt trust. Its when i experienced that its actually possible to believe what a guy says without questioning him, thats when i realised that trust is actually something that comes naturally through time, it cant be forced. Whilst your getting to know each other, spending more time with this person, thats when trust develops. But to me, its also true to say, once its gone, its gone and if i ever do say i trust this person again, it would have taken a long time and it can go again over something minor. So the best way is to leave. When you lose trust the first time, you should leave. Ofc its easier said than done and you have to make sure that you actually dont trust this person anymore, not just simply because he made up some silly and minor excuse/lie to you, cus c'mon, everyone lies. But when im in situations where im sure i dont trust nor believe him anymore, then if i was logical, i would walk away, and if anyone else asks me for advice, i would say the same cus trust takes a really long and frustrating time to build back, and sometimes, you may never build it back. But like i said, thats what i would do if i was logical and most of the time when im in confusing situations, i am not logical! so i do hope there are exceptions out there and it will be worth in the end. I guess it just depends whether you really see a future with this person, and if you can feel their side of effort too.

Today has been a really meh day for me. But i guess but you can’t have a rainbow, without a little bit of rain!

OOTD : 9th July

2011-07-10T20:46:00.000-07:00

Quick OOTD

Went out to fancypants on Saturday night, was a crap night but was good to see the girls.
I really couldn't be bothered to dress up and it was cold outside so didn't want to show my legs.

Topshop lace crop top
Miss Selfridge wet look leggins
Dune leopard print heels (present from my friends on my bday)

Estee Lauder

2011-06-25T11:15:00.000-07:00

Around 2 months ago I brought two Estee Lauder products to use; Idealist- pore minimizing skin refinisher, and Advanced Night Repair. I was recommended these two products when i told them i wanted something to help with my pores and some of the scarring left from spots when i was young. I brought them both in the 50ml size because debenhams was doing a 10% off at the time so both costed £85-90 in total i think.

Estee Lauder Idealist- pore minimizing skin refinisher - I had high hopes in this because i really wanted something which could help minimize my pores. After using it pretty much everyday for 2 months.. i have to say i have a love/hate relationship with this. I didn't like it at first because i felt it did nothing to my pores. It made my skin really smooth, but apart from that, i couldn't notice anything. After a few weeks of using this i started noticing that when i apply make up on top of this, my foundation glides on so well and my make up lasts so much longer, especially during night outs (i have oily skin and i have never used a face primer which has worked). So i have carried on using this on a daily basis and even on days when i dont use foundation and just apply this, iv noticed i havnt had to use blotting sheets as much. I still havn't seen a noticable difference in my pores. Will i buy this product again? I'm not sure. This is quite expensive and i feel it is only good for oil conrol, so i may try out some more face primers first.

Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair - The sales at the counter was so eager for me to buy this and said this was no.1 and will definately help me with old scars or discolouration. When i brought it i really didn't have much hope in this cus i dont really believe there are products which can help scarring. After 2 months of using though, i can honestly say my scarring hasnt all gone but it has definately faded! I don't even feel the need to use liquid foundation anymore and only usually use light powder now, on days when i feel i need more coverage i only use a few dots of concealer and im done. When i run out of this, i will definately repurchase it.

2011-02-27T19:15:00.000-08:00

I really despise people who talk about others when they are not any better. Ok i think 9 out of 10 people has been through this stage with growing up. I can say i once had that ugly side of me too. I'm not saying i'm perfect now or everything i do and say are correct cus i know i'm not, but i'll never let myself fall back into that dark side because thats one of the things i really hated about myself. I'm still learning how to become a better person. By avoiding and not mentiong your own wrong definately does not mean your right. Your just in denial. People talk all the time, they want to know everything about everyone. That doesn't necessarily mean they're bad people. It's called being nosy or in a more blunt way '8 por/8 gung'. But it's the ones who use someone elses weakness and wrong to make themselves feel bigger and 'right' that makes me think theyre so small and weak deep down.

Does it really make you feel happy when you see the pain in someone else's eyes and all you do is rub salt in their wounds? Does it really make you feel less guilty when you point the wrong of others when you did the exact same? Does talking about someone else's dark side really cover your own? If so i pity you. I really do. It's sad to know people can abuse someone else's actions and words just to hide their own selfishness.

Like i've mentioned in this blog previously, what goes around really does come around because Karma really is a bitch. It will come back to you one day. I've learnt this from past experience.

I believe every human being was born with a kind heart. It's what road you take that helps you maintain it. Don't let the wrong thoughts take over yourself.

If you want to judge, judge yourself first and be a better person.

What you did to me, boy i can't forget...

2011-02-23T13:18:00.000-08:00

Didn't really do much today, just woke up, watched some drama and cooked dinner with karman.. made curry laksa which was soo spicy but yummy too hehe.. Just gonna do an update on what i've been up to cus i cant be bothered to start my work..

Only been out three times so far this year :) i feel good hehe! really wanted to go to london kpop cny and got the night off work too- but last minute the guy couldnt cover for me so i had to work :(

Kream CNY party, Lil & Me

Sheff CNY~ Jess, Me, Lil & Anneka

Like usual, the sheffield party was really good.. There were loadsa people so the dancefloor got really packed but the vip upstairs was nice which is where we stayed mainly. Drinks were so cheap, £1 a shot! Probably cus so many of us from bham went up, it made the night even better.
The next day we went yumcha but we were all still pretty drunk so felt like crap. Jess, Lil and Me decided the stay the evening to eat at Yama sushi which loadsa people have said is really nice. Gavin took us around and we went to meadowhall to shop but we was all so tired so ended up in starbucks for like 2 hours! lol.

Look how yummy the sushi looks?! was lush :)

Sakura Traffic Light party - a coach of us girls went down + ling's bf

It was nice to have the girls to go out all together (thanks to jess for organising) we ordered a round of 30 flavoured shots! Me and Carmen took forever choosing which colour to have cus we wanted the lychee one! So we picked a clearish looking one and guess what?! it turned out to be wasabi!! ewww! was so digusting! So later on the night we ordered some more but chose lychee, white choc and apple shots. Sounds lush doesn't it? but it all turned out pretty nasty too :(

On sunday I went up to chesire oaks with karman, her mum & brother and his friend. Was a nice day out :) We then went to manchester and stopped at wongwong bakery (my fav!) and taiwu for dinner. I got asked if i was 16 by an 18 year old boy today.. what?! :( Need to look more my age from now on cus to me being 20ish is a girls best age!

I love love love the mango pudding!

I originally wanted to buy this scarf in the classic brown colour but karman said this one was nicer so i whatsapped a pic to my mum and she also said the white one is nicer. Me being so undecisive couldnt choose for agesss so ended up taking my mum and karmans advice and got the white one. I still dunno which one i like more cus i wanted the brown one for ages.. but i guess i do have a brown one already but its just shorter..

Anyway it's 10pm already so gonna try do some work or maybe i'll watch the new tvb kek jap 'only you' first.. hmmm.. oh yeah! i've recently finished the taiwanese drama called 'down with love' and omg! its a really good drama! ahh Jerry is soo in love with Ella in it.. heard Autumn's Concerto is really good too so i might watch that next!

I'll be hypotizes when looked into your eyes...

2011-01-19T16:58:00.000-08:00

Had a nice chilling day today, woke up at 4pm and met up with Lilian and Jess, went shopping in bullring.. had dinner at Ken Hos.. and the usual gossip sessions! Talked about which cny party to go to.. what we been up to.. friends.. boys.. ect..! Was nice catching up cus havnt seen them in a while.. Had dessert at cafe soya after which was yummyyy

Bumped into a friend today and i was called ginger :( so gonna dye my hair asap!

Sometimes i do wonder, do you actually remember what you used to say me? or i should say do you even remember me at all? cus i remember what you used to say to me and how you used to treat me.. i will admit, i do miss it. it was so natural talking to you before but it's weird now.. i dunno.. i guess some people just come and go in your life and thats just the way it is..

愛是什麼?

2011-01-13T14:15:00.001-08:00

又時覺得「愛」真係好兒戲,
當想完全擁有某人的時候,
有誰真的了解對方的感受,
因為從來都沒有愛過或太愛對方?
還是一直最愛的是自己?
當有人說我愛你的時候,
有否想過日後嚴重程度會是怎樣,
「我愛你」是你給對方的承諾,
這句話根本不可以輕易說出口,
很鄙視那些將喜歡以為是愛的人,
因為兩者是不同等級

一時的喜歡,誰會確保這是一生的愛?

說真的,我好難過....
只希望快D過 ~

Nothing left to say...

2011-01-12T21:38:00.000-08:00

Feels soo good to finally have the internet at the flat! I have lived without the internet for 5 whole months!! (apart from on my phone/the odd dongle top up or when i was back at home)

Been a bit of a mixed emotion day today :| I havn't been so mad in ages and i never thought i would over you again.. but i did. What does that mean? I don't know, but i hate being mad and you always find a way to make me so angry so well done! It was over such a minor thing but whatever, not gonna go into it cus i'm not gonna let you mess up my day again like this.

I dunno if it's just me but i hate promises! If your gonna do something for someone then just do it, no need to say it and give them unneccessary hope. You don't need to brag to anyone else what you're gonna do either! And when you really insist on a promise then frigging stick to it! Because when you make a promise and you don't do it, it makes me so angry and i feel so stupid cus tears just keep rolling down my face!! I don't want that. So yeah, i hate promises.

And i still think about you, did you know that?

Happy New Year!

2011-01-07T12:36:00.000-08:00

Its been so long since I've blogged, but I'm gonna try keep this as updated as I can in 2011 :)

So much happened in 2010- both good and bad, but I believe everything happens for a reason. I did things which i said i was never gonna do and said things which i thought i'd never say. I guess my lesson is never say never. Met a lot of new people this year and got back in touch with a few old friends who i will make more effort to keep in touch with in 2011. After saying many many times i was gonna go to a Manchester party, i finally did for the first time at the Vtown Freshers Party, been up to a few more parties in manc since. Manc is always so eventful, can't really decide if it's good or bad but its eventful. Next place to party is London baby.

One of my scariest night out in 2010 was probably vtown xmas party at Bijou in manchester. I have never seen a girl friend's face been covered with so much blood before :| Candy was really drunk and the dirt claimed she randomly 'ran into the door herself'. I still think yeah right but she doesn't remember what happened so :S Poor candyb had cut on her nose and lip next day :( and i have never met such dirt before in my life- actually would have slapped his fugly face if he left the room any later!

KM (my flatmate) and Me at Kream Halloween

University of Bham x Aston Joint Christmas Ball
Was a really good evening, everyone looked so elegant and smart. This year was the most entertaining Christmas Ball we've had. We played games from Bingo to Beer drinking, but i think what made is most special is the amount of people who turned up including some of my really close friends :)

Fecx 2009-2010

One thing i've learnt in 2010 is - What goes around really does come around. It may even be someone else who will treat you the same way you did to someone before. Either way it will come back to you. So never do wrong to anyone. Because Karma really is a bitch.

I havnt really given myself any new years resolutions; just gonna work harder in uni, be less lazy and create more good memories in 2011. If I could have one wish right now, i would hope 2011 brings my family and friends lasting happiness. I've noticed when something postive happens, something bad always follows. 2010 has been a fairly unlucky year for some of my closest and a lot of sad things happened, thinking about it is actually making me tear up so lets change the subject.

This is how I entered 2011! The queue was massive so we ended up doing the countdown outside sence! We pre drank beforehand at my apartment so we was all pretty tipsy at this point hehe. We also went to the new cc karaoke in china town after, its really pretty inside!

"Life is too short, laugh when you can. Apologize when you should. and let go of what you can't change"

Bourjois Smoky Eyes Trio Eyeshadow

2010-07-02T13:15:00.000-07:00

I brought the Bourjois Smoky Eyes Trio Eyeshadow in Gris Dandy about 2 months ago, i've been in love with it since. I've been using this every time i go out in the evening. It creates such a pretty smokey eye look.

The only negative thing i can say about this product is that when i use my other eyeshadow brushes, it doesnt really pick up the colour, but when i use the eyeshadow applicator that comes with this trio set, it does a really good job, so i guess that isn't really a big problem. And after i just blend it out with my blending brush.

The colours are glittery but its not too much, i find it perfect for a night out. The three colours blends together really well aswell.

Birthdays

2010-06-25T14:13:00.000-07:00

During the end of May, it was my 20th birthday. So many of my friends came out for kareoke which was also joint with my other two friends. Then me and some close friends went to eat at Frankie and Bennys on my actual day which was really lovely.

Mid June, it was my boyfriend's birthday and we went to Sheffield for a Chinese party then to Manchester the next day, and back in Birmingham for a meal on his actual day.

It's been a really busy 1-2 months, but really fun and i just wana share some photos with you guys here :)

FOTD & Nars Gina

2010-05-05T14:49:00.000-07:00

Nars - Gina blush

I brought this a week or two back and I love it soo much! I've been using it everyday so far and already i don't know what i do without this blush. I've brought orgasm by nars before, but i wasn't in love with it. I think its a bit too shimmery for a blush whereas Gina is a beautiful warm matte orangey-peachy color! Its really pigmented so a little goes a long way. I love it so much, so natural and gorgeous!

I tried to do a swatch but don't think its very clear.

This is my FOTD.

Face :
Clinique Superfit Foundation in beige.
Mac Studio Fix Powder in NC30.
Mac Select Cover-up in NW25.
Nars Gina blush

Eyes :
Diorshow mascara in black

Rimmel colour rush in smokey quartz
Eyebrows i used Rimmel eyebrow pencil in dark brown

I was gonna put this in a seperate blog but when i took photos of the necklace on me, the photo seemed to show the blush i was wearing better than in the pictures above. So this is from Freedom-Topshop 12pounds. I've been wanting a necklace like this for ages but i've only seen it in gold. Its really simple but i really like it :) Saw it in silver today and brought it straight away!

This is my boyf and me today :)

We went to get sticky photos done ^_^

Just wanted to show you guys my new iphone case that i brought on ebay not long ago. Its so pretty :) I've ordered a few more but they've not arrived yet.

Sheffield Back2School Party

I went to a Chinese Back2School party in Sheffield last week. I had so much fun! Just wanna share some photos with you guys!

Well me and my friends decided to dress up to the theme, as school geeks! =) We went to a chinese restaurant in Birmingham before my friend drove us up. It was pretty embarassing cause we looked so silly and everyone was just staring lol.

This is my boyf and me.

Elf products

2010-04-17T12:43:00.000-07:00

About 3 weeks ago i placed an order with Elf. My package came like 4 days after i placed my order, which i think is really quick so was really happy with the service. I didn't buy a lot, just a few things really caught my eyes and as many of you properly know, has had many positive reviews. I brought the Studio small precision brush, Studio complexion brush, Studio powder brush, and the Studio warm bronzer.

Studio Warm Bronzer
As you guys may have read before, Nars Laguna is my favourite bronzer at the moment, so having this in mind, i did have quite high expectations about this. I do really like the colour of this bronzer, it gives quite a natural bronze, the only negative this i can say about this is that it's quite shimmery. I have used it a fair few times, but i still tend to go by the Nars Laguna on most days, but i think for £3.50, its definately worth buying. The colour is really pigmented so i have also tried this for eyeshadow and its so pretty.

Studio Powder Brush
I can't stress enough how good this brush is and it is definately worth buying! Not only is it only £3.50 but the quality is actually really good. The brush doesn't shed or bleed (I have read in some reviews they do but it hasnt for me) I use this everyday for my powder foundation and this is by far the best brush i've used. Its soo soft aswell! Love it!

Studio Complexion Brush
This is another really soft brush and it is only £3.50 too. I don't use this very often but when i do, I use mainly for light application of bronzers and blushes. I wouldn't say its a must have but its a nice brush to own.

Studio Small Precision Brush
I use this to apply color evenly for small targeted areas. It good to create thin lines on my eyes (eg. with black eyeshadow) I do like this brush, don't love it, not sure why, maybe cus it does get a little messy sometimes. But its really soft, does the job so its nice to use it.

This brush i don't own but i'm considering placing another Elf order soon and i really want it. Its the Elf blending brush. I really need a blending brush and i've read good reviews about it. I wana try it out cus if i end up not liking it i wana buy the mac 224 or 217 brush. But of course if this turns out great, i won't have to spend much for a brush cus the mac brushes are quite expensive.

Clinique and a little shopping.

2010-04-15T15:48:00.000-07:00

Clinique dramatically different moisturizing gel

I've been using this for about 2 months now. I have combination/oily skin and all the past moisturizers i've used have left me with really oily skin especially when i wake up. But this, is really good on my skin, it moisturizes it, yet it doesnt become really oily. Maybe because its a gel texture but i definately recommend this. I think its especially good for summer now coming up, because my skin becomes more oily.

Clinique superfit make up.
This is oil-free and long-lasting. I've been debating ages whether to buy this or the mac face and body foundation.. and i just couldnt resist when i went to the clinique counter the other day. I am in the colour beige. And it fits perfectly. I've worn this a couple of times so can't really review much but all i can say is so far so good! It has been long lasting and hasnt melt off.

Carvela Ambrosia

I finally found them in my size! Went to House of Fraser and KG today to look for these (theyr on sale atm from 120 pounds to 79 pounds!) and nowhere has my size (3). Thinking selfridges would be the most popular place where people went to for sales so not very hopeful, i still asked the sales lady if they had any size 3 left.. and she came out from the stock room with a pair! oh em geee! so happy! I have plenty of heels but these are my first pair of platforms, and im so excited to wear them! I have to buy some heel gripes though cus theyr a little loose still.. but yay :)

So i brought these hotpants from River Island. I've been wanting a pair of black hotpants for ages but obv winter being winter, I havn't seen any in any shops. Want to tone up my legs now lol. Love these!

Nars, Mac, Victoria Secret, Stila, Urban Decay

2010-03-19T14:40:00.000-07:00

I went shopping for the past week or two and obviously couldnt resist buying cosmetics!

Nars bronzer - Laguna

I used to think the rimmel sunshimmer maxi bronzer was the best bronzer for me and when i tried other bronzers, they were either not the right shade or too shimmery. I was in the nars section and wanted to check out the bronzers. There were two shades which i thought was really nice. Laguna and Casino. But the lady at the counter recommended laguna cause casino is a darker shade and laguna may be better for my skin tone. I really love this bronzer! It gives such a natural golden bronze glow to my skin. Because i chose laguna and not casino, on some occasions when i want a darker bronze, i can just apply it abit more and it gives me the effect i want. I may try casino in the future but i'm not sure cus when i looked at it at the nars counter, it did look pretter dark compared to my skin. With laguna, i can get both a light bronze or a more darker bronzer so i'm really happy with this product.

Mac Select Cover-up- NC 25

This is how the product is described on the mac website:
Liquid camouflage for the skin. Texture-free, virtually invisible. Comes in a tube. Blends in. Brightens and lightens dark areas, erases spots, evens-out skin tones. Makes skin flaw-free. Use pre-foundation, or on its own. 11 shades. Don't reveal it, conceal it!

I wanted to buy a nice concealer for my undereyes to cover my bags and to brighten dark areas and blemishes. When i was browsing on the mac website, i did originally want to buy the studio finish SPF 35 concealer. But when i told the lady what i was looking for, she recommended the select cover up. This does wonders for my eye bags. It doesnt just provide coverage but i love how it actually does brighten areas which are dull. But on the coverage side, it isnt as great on blemishes especially when i break out. The coverage isn't as good as i would like, so i may buy the studio concealer aswell as the description for it claims to be really good for coverage.

Victoria Secret Very Sexy Lipstick - Whisper.

I love this lipstick. It is a nude colour with a slight peachy colour. The texture is really nice too - very moisturising. It has a smooth, creamy consistency with subtle shimmer. Another lipstick i have been really into recently is-

Stila long wear lip color in Darling.

This colour very like the VS whisper, but its shade is more of a light frosty peach colour. The quality of this is really high as its so moisturising too. I hate lipticks which dry my lips out. It's has like a little gloss effect so i never have to put lipgloss on top of this when i wear it. Also, this lip color smells and tastes divine - vanilla cake batter scent. I really like the tube shape of this too.

I have swatched the two lipsticks.
Left is the VS in whisper and Right is Stila in Darling.

As you can tell by the swatches, the stila in darling is lighter and the VS is more peachy. I love both and when applied on my lips, the colours are much more similiar.

Ok so i used to think Urban Decay Eyeshadows are too shimmery and would make my eyes look messy. But when i stopped at the urban decay counter and had a look at these eyeshadows, i actually quite liked it. I didn't really know what palette i wanted cus theres so many and they all had pretty colours. There has been a new palette released recently by urban decay called Alice in Wonderland, which looks really pretty too but i wasnt too keen on some of the shades in it cus i only really wear neutral shades.
So i decided to go for the Urban Decay Sustainable Shadow Box.

I've used this a few times and so far I'm really impressed with this palette, i love the twice baked. Its my favourite colour out of the palette. The colours in this palette is really good to make a brown/bronze smokey eye. I hardly wear bright colours on my eyes but the flipside colour looks really nice so i will definately try it out. This also comes with an eyeshadow brush and travel sized bottle of primer potion. So this is my first urban decay eyeshadow palette and i'm really glad i brought it :)

I have also brought the Revlon colourstay foundation. I'm really disappointed with the product though especially after reading so many positive reviews about it. It's just too thick for my face, i feel like i have a mask on, maybe the way i applied it? i duno. I gave a try a couple of times but i've just ended up taking it all off cus i just felt really uncomfortable. It was also really hard for me to find my shade colour but i give up with testing more colours out now cus i personally prefer a more thinner foundation.

Princess Lee Eyelashes

2010-03-07T10:48:00.000-08:00

Okay so i brought these Princess Lee's (公主李) eyelashes the other week and its arrived! I've been so excited to try them out and i've not had the chance to until today.

They have it in number 6.7.8 which represents the length
They also have it in Light, Cross, and Black which represents the volume.

Lenth: Cross 6 (black) 1.3cm > Cross 8 (black) 1.2cm > Cross 7 (black) 1.1cm
Volume: Black cross > Cross > Light cross

They are one of the best selling items in beauty stores in Asia, featured on different Taiwanese TV shows, like "流行 in-house" and "女人我最大"

I brought the Black Cross 7. ! The lashes are all handmade so the cross looks really natural. The band is soo soft.. which makes it really easy to apply cus i usually find it hard to glue the corner areas.

As you can tell in the picture, the lashes are quite long for my eye lids.. so i had to cut it a little.

You might beable to tell from the above picture, i forgot to curl my own lashes first and from the side it's quite noticeable. So make sure you don't forget when you apply false lashes :)

These photos i took from my laptop cam.

Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler & Dollywink

2010-02-28T16:36:00.000-08:00

Shu uemura eyelash curler

I'm so glad i've finally brought this! I've read many postive reviews about this, and i must agree with them! It also comes with an extra refill so i can change it when i need to :) Other eyelash curlers i've used, i find that they don't actually get hold of all my eyelashes such as ones on the inner and outter corners of my eyes. The shape fits perfectly on my eyes. I've used this about 2 weeks now, and everytime i've used it, the curls in my lashes last the whole day. I definately recommend this eyelash curler!

They also have this exclusive gold version, its so pretty! I originally wanted the gold one but can't get my hands on them so got the silver one instead. The silver one does the job i want so i'm still really glad :)

Dollywink

Dollywink products are a big hit in hongkong, japan ect..
It has a collection of eyelashes; both top and bottom, pencil and liquid eyeliners, eyelash container, eyelash glue. Their packaging is also really cute and pretty :) However, i only brought the black liquid eyeliner and the eyelash container. Personally im not too keen with theyre eyelashes even though there are many positive reviews about them. It's just a personal preference i suppose :)

The eyeliner is so nice! It's so thin and applies so well. With my other liquid eyeliners, i can't really eyeline my upper lash line very well cus it either gets in my eye or just smudges and makes it really thick. I can apply this liner along my upper lash line really close to my eye and it doesn't smudge or spreads. I can apply as little as i want for a natural look to wear everyday. It also lasts really well. A whole day wearing it, the eyeliner doesn't smudge or melt off. I give this product a thumbs up.

I didn't really need this but i like the look of it cus its cute and pretty and i need something to store my eyelashes. I think im gonna repurchase this bcause i can fit a couple of pairs of eyelashes in it but i have others too and don't like it when it all sticks together.

Valentines & Chinese New Year

2010-02-23T10:07:00.000-08:00

Late blog ~ but -

新年快樂, 心想事成, 龍馬精神, 家宅平安 ♥

Just a quick review about valentines day and chinese new year. My boyf and I spent the day at home at my parents, and we had the typical "lor bak go" and "leen go". Was really yum =) Had my lai c's too from my parents and some aunties and uncles. In the evening, my boyf took me out for a meal at frankie and bennys (where we went last year too, hehe) I had prawn cocktail as starter and boyf had amazing skins. Was yum :) For mains we had steak, quite typical lol. We wanted to have to cinnamon waffle crunch for desserts but they ran out of waffles :( how rubbish. So we went to casino and had some tasty ice cream.

I love the jacket i wore that night <3
Its from H & M kids, hehe.
Only £10!.. was in the sale.. bargain!

These are the gifts baby brought me, and i love them ^_^ thank you!

I usually use the chanel chance perfume and have said i woudnt change but when i smelt this, i just fell in love. Dior Addict No.2 <3

Today i went to the hairdressers, i had my hair dyed, and a trim. I asked for ash brown, and the colour looked perfect on the colour chart. But as a result, i can't decide if i love it.. or not. Hmm. Will make a post about it soon :)

Laneige

2010-02-17T18:00:00.000-08:00

My laneige multi cleaners and pore trouble refiner is finally here. I've used it for about 1-2 weeks now.

Pore Trouble Refiner

Pore Trouble Skin Refiner effectively rids skin acne/pimple problem often caused by bad bacteria - strengthening skin's immunity for healing to take place. No clogged or enlarged pores, no break outs again. Skin is clearer with a brighter and more even toned.

This toner is really refreshing, but for some reason, the first couple of days using it, i've reacted to it. It has quite a strong smell of tea tree oil which i'm personally not too keen on. My skin doesn't feel irritated anymore when i use it, but i'm still not sure whether i will continue to use this product once its finished.

Multi Cleanser

For all skin types. Makeup removing, foam cleansing, and micro-scrubbing 3-in-1 effect providing soft and clean feeling after wash.

- Squeeze out around 2cm and gently massage over the damp face to melt makeup away.
- Can be used for removing heavy point makeup on lip & eye area. When used daily, it removes skin impurities in the pores and makes the skin look brighter.

This cleanser provides really gentle exfoliation because the beads are extremely small.

Missha BB Cream no.23

2010-02-12T10:05:00.000-08:00

This is what the product claims to do :

Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream offers a novel skincare concept with BB cream, which lightens skin tone by healing visible wrinkles and blemishes with excellent skin-cover ability, and prevents skin aging through effective whitening and anti-wrinkle properties.

I've been using this product for just over a week now. Coverage is excellent and it evened out my skin tone really well. The only down side i'd say is it the shade. They only do no.21 and no.23 and no.23 is the darker tone. Yet it is still pretty light on my skin. It's good if im only after a light coverage and only apply a small amount on. But if i want a full-on coverage, you can tell my face looks whiter than my neck.

It has high SPF content (SPF42 PA+++). It is oil-free base, which is great for those with oily/combination skin.

Mac Lashes

2010-02-09T07:27:00.001-08:00

After reading many reviews about this Mac #7 Lashes, I decided to buy it the other week. I've been looking for a pair of lashes which are suitable for going on a night out, but isnt too dramatic. And this seems to do the job :) I tried it last night when i was out in sheffield. And i loved it. The glue is also really good too cause i've not had to re-touch it during 5hours of being in the club/bar.

Whats your favourite lashes? :)

Recent purchases

2010-01-30T09:36:00.001-08:00

Mac Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation - NC30
I love this product! I usually find it hard to keep my make up all day without any retouch, especially as i have quite an oily t-zone. But this powder/foundation creates a really nice matte finish. It gives a really nice coverage too.

DiorShow Waterproof Mascara - Black
As iv mentioned in my previous blog, i love this mascara! So the smaller one in my travel studio pack would obviously run out quick. It gives both volume and length which you don't often get in other mascaras or even if they claim they do, thats not always the case.

Nars Blush - Orgasm
I usually go for a more golden/brown blusher but after reading many reviews about this, iv decided to give it a try. The colour is so nice when it's applied on! I prefer using this in the daytime as it gives a more natural glow to the face.

Dior Travel Studio

2010-01-29T12:58:00.001-08:00

I've brought this travel studio a while ago at the airport. Not really had to chance to test it out, But i've been using it for the past week or so. And i must say i am pretty impressed with Dior products.

DiorShow Mascara is my favourite. It gives the eyes so much volume, and the curls stays all day.

The eyeshadow colours in this is really nice and can be used everyday.

2010-01-26T19:55:00.000-08:00

I've been reading a lot of beauty blogs and reviews lately. From both people i know and don't. It's nice reading these because i've actually picked up a lot of useful tips. Like how to apply make up properly, what different items does, how to make your look more natural and nice.

Makes me want to share with my friends what i've brought recently which may be useful to others :)

I love this nail lacquer so much <3

Mac - Blissed out

I've seen this on reviews before and decided to check it out in superdrug. They actually do different colour ranges. But this one is my favourite. The colours are so pretty. Really tempted to buy the graphite palette too but some colours are the same/similiar so will have to see.

Sleek - Storm

This is really good for cleansing, instead of using my normal face cloth, these smaller cleansing pads allow me to clean my face more thoroughly and gentle.

The Body Shop - Facial Deep Cleansing Pads
