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.

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 ^^
