Story

Let's face it. Everyone has their own story. Whether you're a rich spoiled brat or dirt poor beggar.

Funny thing is, when someone tells you a story, you would either compare your own story or sympathize with the persons story.

I don't know how other people feel when they tell their story, but I was on both sides. I would compare and I would sympathize depending on several factors. But that is just me. I was bias in a way where, if I can see more of the good happening in your life than the bad, then why on earth are you complaining?

But when you start comparing stories, that means you're being judgmental. I realized that and have stopped comparing since. There is really no point in comparing. And okay, so if you feel your story is larger than the other's, keep that to yourself.

Other people's story is big to them, though small to you. Nomatter what, you will have a story, and will always be up to you if its big or small. Just be proud you pulled through it and lived to tell the story.

Ever wondered why guys cannot understand what we want sometimes? And yet, we refuse to tell them because we want them to figure out what the hell it is we want? And then when you finally told them what it is and then don't want it anymore because they couldn't figure it out themselves? Admit it. I know alot of you guilty of that. So am I.

So.. question is.. why do we do that?? I reckon, its because, well, after so long of being together, you would think that your other half would know what you like and want right? And then when you actually, seriously, omg did so well and figured it out, presented it to her, she becomes extra nice and loves you more yes? Why can't we just outright tell you what we want? Makes everyone's life so much easier, avoids petty bickering, and less white hair growing for the guys. I'm guessing because.. we just want to be swept off our feet. I dunno. I haven't found the logic yet.

I had a colleague, very interesting girl. She basically have a manual for her man. "Don't buy that for me during Christmas, I want this this this this". She need not any surprises. She PREFERS he don't surprise her just so her man doesn't buy the wrong thing. Something she wouldn't like or use or even need. Makes me wonder, how to do that? I reckon its something to do.. with her own story ;)

Anyway, rant done. Have a good one guys^^

Competition

I like this! :D I like the competition! :D

I recently found out a rival has erected her own beauty store, funnily the name is so close to mine XD but thats fine! :D now I know more products I can bring in for my clients! Yay me!! :D And I also know more what the market wants! ^^ This is so exciting!!

Sorry for my disappearance by the way, I have been so busy lately its not even funny! I am constantly shifting the house around. Rented out a room as well to a friend I met 2 years ago when we went clubbing.. or was it karaoke? Forgot lol! Gona rent out the other room too. It's just too many dead space now. Might as well. ^^ Our new housemate is Western but Asian inside. Nice. Fits our culture nicely. Now, to get him to playing pc and online games with us! XD

I've been so addicted to LoL lately. Michelle has joined in too! Unfortunately I have to go on Garena to play, which means I have to download LoL from Garena and I reckon its clashing with my Aussie server. T_T And the delay plus lag, erk. Nonetheless, I'll fix it and I can bear with the lag and delay ^^ Once Jessica gets hers, we can create our lil gal team! I daresay though, its better than Dota and Dota 2. I had been so stubborn since my Brunei friends based here invited me to play. I should open to change more!

Anyone else use this app called Line? Its so awesome. Makes chatting more interactive. Jess, Mich and I have a group chat and we basically chat almost everyday. It feels so good to connect with them that way!

Also, I took on a good deal from a printing company and got myself/store 500 business cards! :D Its so simple yet chick. I love it! Thanks to my small worker Greg for putting it together! :D here's how it looks!

I have more plans for my business! :D Will blog about it when it happens! Man, owning a business rules everything. But ofcourse, it remains my part time while I have aim for my career in the hospitality industry. Time to put my DEGREE in good use! :D

Empire Hotel

When Skip and I was back in Brunei at the end of February this year, we booked a night at the Empire Hotel (Get to use dad's company's membership kekkeekekekekekeeke). The receptionist asked if we were gonna have any parties. I was like...bitch please, I'm too old for that... and I have no friends left in Brunei other than Gretsen. Ok, no seriously, I said no. Just a couple's thing. I'm guessing alot of people do that huh.. using their daddy's card to book a night and have parties. Cheh. I do that too bwhaahahhaah (hypocrite..) but not this time! That is too mainstream. Instead we............ahem..do this...

 HAHAHAHA HE GOT TIRED CUZ I PURPOSELY TAKE TOO LONG TO SNAP THE PIC HAHAHAHAH.

Notice the ciggerettes in Skip's photos? Rofl. 

Another hair dye session

Dyed my hair today. This time I used the Beautylabo brand. Its another whip dye similar to Liese and Dahria Palty. So I guess you can say I have a new best friend! :D

Preparation wise, its different compared to Liese and Dahria Palty. As mentioned before, Liese's way of prepping it, you need to shake the bottle sideways. You won't see the foam until you squeeze the contents out. Dahria Palty requires you to stir. With Beautylabo, you shake vigorously up and down. Immediately it starts to foam up, to the point your shaking won't seem like its doing anything, but its advised to be shaken 30 times.

This is how it looks after its shaken:

          Orange juice, anyone? 

And the contents:

Looks and smells very edible........o.o

This is how my hair looks like before dying it:

Blegh! Faded Raspberry Jam XD Uneven colours due to my previous highlighted bleach hair long before I started dying hair at home. 

Skip walked in while I was in the middle of applying the foam on my hair and he said the room smells really good, so good news is, there is hardly any ammonia smell! 

I can't speak for anyone here, but it gets hell tangled up when I apply it. So when you apply it, its best to start from the roots first. Okie? 

Looks really ugly here......

The parts that is in contact with your skin, is ok. It washes off easily and doesn't stain your skin. As you can see, it dries back to its powder form. (I forgot to take a picture of its contents, but basically you need two base to make the foam. The powder which is the dye, and the liquid thingy that mixes with the dye.) So hence, when it dries up, it goes back to sort of its powder form. 

So, I have a confusion here to what it really looks like. When I look in the mirror, I think it looks like this. So I guess real life my skin colour is like that too :O I am so yellow! 

I did a cheat one mermaid hair here hehehehehe. The colour is more even, and it looks like...gold...? 

And this is how it looks like most of the time in photos, especially with flash. 

Creepy how its almost the same pose but different hair and skin colour O.o 

It looks reddish. I know. But mind you, its different from the previous colour I used which was the Raspberry Jam by Dahria Palty. To refresh your memory of that colour, here it is. 

Tell me there is a difference and that I am not blind lol! 

So yea. I have come to love dying my hair at home. I did create a lil mess but thats cause I was shivering from the cold. Starting to dislike winter, especially since I am down with the flu now zzzz. 

So my verdict? 

I still love all 3 Liese, Dahlia Palty and Beautylabo. All three smells very nice, colours applied to hair come out even (but for some odd reason I am always missing my side burns area :S), washes off like shampoo (my hair untangles itself). 

The downside is, for Liese and Dahria Palty you need two of them for long/thick hair whereas Beautylabo, one bottle is enough. More than enough! By long hair I don't mean those people who have long hair up til their butts! So yes, I am satisfied with the third brand and I definitely recommend it! 

I am also selling them, links on the top tab if you can see! ^^ 

I REALLY love this photo. Amoi's teeth and Habibi's pose. Super wtf XD XD
