Wahaha, the two girls above aren't Liese and Dariya Palty XD. They're Gretsen and Claire! :D Gretsen my best buddy, and Claire, Nigel's (my eldest brother) fiance. Took this picture at the airport before my flight back to Perth on the 25th T_T sigh I miss them..

Click here to visit Blush Me Up. Got them from this site. Can't find any of them around, and this is the closest place I can get them. Got them for $13.95 and $19.95! :D 

 Left side for Dariya Palty, right side for Liese
 Used all of Dariya Palty, and a little bit of Liese
 Mix em and it foams up! :D Almost overflowing

 Application, and how it looks
 Wipe off the ones on my skin, or else I'll look sunburned @@" 
 Tadaa! 
Black roots completely covered

This beats whatever hair dye the salons I go to use. It smells fruity, its so easy to apply, and it covers all areas. Seriously, a MUST have! Your hair is sooo soft and shiny after, especially after applying the conditioner it comes with. 

Its permanent hair dye as well, but like every other pink or red dyes, it will fade. There was one time, I had my hair dyed red, which turned out to be a dark violet-ish colour, and every time I wash my hair, I can see red colour flowing down. EVERY wash. Like what on earth? I couldn't go swimming, as its soooo obvious. Like my head is bleeding :s. But with this, it doesn't at all. 

The first picture above is what my hair looks like before I dyed it today. And that is what it looks like after a week of using the mentioned above hair dyes. Doesn't last long, but I expected it anyway since its pink/red dye. I'm still happy with the results! Too bad the salons here don't use these brands of dye, or else I'll be their number one customer. Sigh, feels good to have vibrant colour back, not the yellow faded crap hahaha.

When does your gel nails need refilling?

When your nails look like this! 



1) Original nails visible  

2) A CRACK!!!!!!!!! 

3) Dirt between gel nails and original nails

1) Normally after 3 weeks after gel nails is done. This has been just 4 weeks. You can let it grow all the way,  and then have it cut off if you do not want to remove it at the nail salon, or if you are stingy with funds hahaha 

2) A crack, from doing way too much work. It is actually pretty damn strong seeing how I am very rough with my hands. I do the garden with my bare hands, I carry heavy stuff, I scrub my dogs, cook, wash and etc. I basically go about my daily routine and its fine, until I accidentally did something which made the nail bend upwards, and when it bends upwards, hooooooboy, it hurts like a bitch because, one, it doesn't bend! I was helping my Aunt to load her luggage into the boot and accidentally did dono what, which made it bend up (as if the WHOLE of the nail is being bend upwards...brrr) and then yeah, weakened it and days later, a crack is visible. :((( sad. 

3) There isn't really a gap, but theres still a line between the fake nails and your real nails, so fine dirt and bacteria and all those non imaginable stuff is gathered there. 

So there you have it. TIME TO GET MY NAILS DONE WEE~~~. Gonna try french tips in square shaped this time ^^^

Out of our control

Nomatter how much of a control freak you are, you cannot control how people think and feel. People around you, you cannot control how you want them to think and feel too. Nomatter how much you explain yourself, justify yourself, you cannot control them. Maybe you can change their minds, but by then, why would you even bother? What you say or do affects you greatly, and if you are associated with anyone, like your partner, or family, it affects them too.

 These people will end up having to clean up the mess you made especially if you react negatively towards how other people think or feel after you have shown yourself. What if you are really innocent? Just one little action of yours that means nothing to you can already conclude something in their minds and hearts. And then this spreads like cancer. And when it happens, it affects your future. The past you wish you could change or do something about it, the future of which what happens next. How people around you will react to it, how people will behave and go about around you.

 What can you do about this? How do you avoid it?

 I learned that you must think before you take action, even if its just a small matter. Because small matter that has been addressed wrongly, can escalate to something so big, you wish you were never born. If an action is needed, find another way, don't sync it with how you feel. If its hard, find something to calm you down first. Seek help, and make sure the other person doesn't get all high and mighty and suddenly takes action in your place, because no matter how they word it, it will come right back at you. Anger will only cloud your judgement. The last thing we want is animosity between you and some one you get along well in the beginning.

 Deep breaths, calm down, be rational.

Mummy's cooking

Is so good.

But I am now an official bum. Other than feeling fine, I am sort of jobless. Or shiftless more like it. Hours has been cut due to non peak season, so I haven't gotten a single shift since I got back from Brunei. So yes, I have been incomeless, but atleast the splurging is minimized...sort of. lolol.

My mum has been here since the trip from Brunei, and she will be staying for another month. I have gained 1.5kg since I've been eating her cooking, and slugging on the couch reading books (Stolen, job vacancy, pure and past the shallows) or watching tv series. 1.5kg made a huge difference. My face is less sunken in, my chest bone doesn't protrude as much, meaning to say I'm bustier now bwahaahahha. I don't look as pale anymore, apparently chicken soup is good. I am very well rested, and ready to go back to work, anywhere. I'm looking into getting receptionist experience, hoping it would help me in getting a hotel receptionist job in the future, and then climb up the ladder from there. I hope!

Mom has been helping, or more like taking over the housework for me.. like cooking, cleaning, laundry, and now even the backyard. The backyard is a huge mess, but we're hoping to let the grass grow, and also grow some veges. Just planted some chili seeds, don't know if it'll grow at all?

I remember growing tomatoes, but one day after coming home from work, I couldn't find my plants, and I asked Skip. Apparently he left it outside under the burning summer sun, and it dried up and died T_T. Since then, I lost the motivation :((

Nothing exciting happened, other than being really touristy when my aunt was here. I got the pics up on facebook. There was one hiliarious moment when we went crabbing. It just rained at the near by suburbs, so the tide was a little higher than the usual above ankle level. Luckily we brought the flatable boat so we got to sit on it while Skip dragged us around. We also brought the puppies with us..so um.. it was abit of a challenge there because they were being all whiny bout it. But fun anyhow, we got it recorded in the Go Pro! :D

I did discover something interesting in terms of hair products. I used the Morrocan oil for bout 2 months (used very often, everyday) and I had a quarter left before I gave it to Gretsen to try. If she loves (I hope you do! XD) then I'll get her a new bottle :D since I gave mine away, I had to get another one for myself. The salon I went to at Carousel ran out of it and I cbf looking for it at other place, so I got something very similar to it.

Smells almost exactly the same. I got these two for the price of the bottle on the left. Weird promotion but yeah. The round thingy is a mask, I've used it twice so far. Its okay. I am not sure what normal masks are meant to be like, but this one seems to get washed off easily. I swear I didn't wash my hair thoroughly after it and I don't feel like theres much smoothness on my hair, like how conditioners feel. But nyeh, my hair is soft and shiny so not complaining hahah.

Anyway, thats bout it.
Babby Moi xD

Go pro!

I was at work one day when Skip msged me about a camera. Its called the Go Pro Hero 3 or something. At first I had no clue wtf he was trying to show me (he took a printscreen of it).. but yeah. He explained to me its shock proof and water proof and its mainly for outdoors.

Had a couple of shots of it to test out. Its pretty good :D Unfortunately, our Brunei trip photos is gone because he accidentally formatted the micro sd :( but lucky enough, my awesome friend Gretz has taken a couple off us, so we should have some pics from it, especially a video of Nigel (my eldest brother) stacking it bwahahahaha.

 Look at Habibi's crazy eye O_O
 Skip picked my mum up and put her on the boat XD

 Buried the cam in the sand.. and the dogs dug it up
 Naked face :z
 Crabs mating HAHAHAHA
catching the mating crabs HHAHAHA (released them after lol)

And this cam.. is TINY! :D 
 In its protective casing (which makes it shock proof and water proof)
And its as small as a Samsung Galaxy I

It also comes with remote too! :D Worth it. Costed bout $420..without the sd cards and stuff. You can mount it on anything. You can also buy an external screen which can be attached to it, and its touch screen! :D Worth it for those who are very outdoor-sy and adventurous :D loving it ^^

Hoarder and jelly monkey.

Skip and I bought 4 stuff toys specially for dogs from Brunei during our one week visit not long ago. They consist of a lip shaped one with ugly looking teeth and tongue with the squeaky thingy behind the lip, so when they bite on it, it looks like their mouth? Another one is a sausage dog toy curled like the pillows we use for travelling, and lastly, a monkey with jelly dangling legs which consist of a squeaky thingy in it and lastly a flat orange frilly looking cat. Habibi and Amoi loves the lip and monkey one. I have no idea where they have hid the dog one :s. And the cat..well..we'll see.


The monkey toy never fails to amaze me honestly. Every time they are done playing with it (by playing, they tug and pull and tear on it), they leave it at random places in the house. What amazes me is how....left for dead it looked, and because of the jelly dangling legs, it looked like it fell off from a high building (like a suicide pose). I've taken some pictures for my entertainment, and I think it would be cute to have it up here as well :D











Pardon my feet lol.

Another thing I noticed about how different Amoi is to Habibi is that shes a very "quiet" dog. I don't have any other words to describe or elaborate how "quiet" she is, but she definitely grabs alot of attention from people. Must be her dopey eyes and big ears...hm.

Also..she likes to hoard stuff.
Sitting on her bed...with one of her hoarded stuff exposed, Skip's cleaning rag for his car 
This is her hoarded stuff. 

Other than fluffs from an old bolster we gave them, there is Skips right work gloves, 3 sock from different pairs belonging to Skip, the flat cat toy from Brunei, toilet paper roll, bits and pieces of chewed up blue pen, and lastly a tiny bag consisting Skip's shrinks tubes for wires. 

Clearly we can see she's hoarding Skip's stuff. This is the second time she's hoarded stuff. There was more on her first bed which I've cleaned out after getting this grey bed. I think I should leave it be this time or else I might find stuff under Skip's pillow instead...like how I found chicken nuggets there rofl.

What a Struggle

Hello people, 

After battling through the Google +1 sign up, login, confirmation, detail settings, sharing options, circles list and several other rather specific details about me; I've finally reached the page that allows me to say something.

Hi.

Thank you and goodbye for now.

-Skip

+1

I'm gonna make things more interesting here. I have just invited Skip to be part of this blog. :D

I am not sure what he will be updating but I reckon it might interest the male viewers hahaha. I guess we could look forward to a change of layout soon, where it won't be too girly, or manly? Lets hope he doesn't go and mess it up too much haha!

So yes, lets give a warm welcome to this blog's new author, Skip! :D

*clap clap clap*
