Recuperate

Last week has been a rather hectic week. Lectures were not really packed but a pre-test, workshop and interview slot were inserted among them, hence lots of reading required during my 'free time'. Besides, I am also trying to keep myself as occupied as possible. I like being busy, at least I feel that I am not wasting life and time. Also, I tend to feel less emotional when I am busy.

Here are some random pictures from the period between my intense lifestyle. Er,...don't think shopping and chilling with friends are considered intense but wth, as long as I am not seated in front of my computer, watching drama alone while munching on nachos dipped in sour cream or cheese, it's a win.

Quite a few readers/followers have been asking about this collar. It's not a necklace nor detachable collar, it is part of my top. Check it out from Miss Selfridge if you are interested. However, I don't know if you can still get it cause I have bought it for quite some time already.

Oh by the way, HAPPY HALLOWEEN TO YOU ALL!!!

How are you guys celebrating your trick or treating festival? And what is your costume??? I have always wanted to be a corpse bride but never had the opportunity to yet. I mean even if I am attending some sort of Halloween party, laziness haunts and I can't be bothered to put in so much effort anymore. Think of the costume, makeup or any required gadgets (?) 

Hope everyone had a good celebration. I did not though. I blame the aging symptom, as usual, I choose to stay home, read books and paint my nails. I prefer a quite life, hence I am ambitious to being a tai tai in the future. Jokes.

❤❤❤❤❤

Went shopping on one of my free day. DO NOT be fooled by the sun, it was a freaking 1 degree that day. By the way, I feel cuter instantly whenever I put on this dress coat lol.

Wasn't sure if I liked this dress, the cut out bit. But I really really like the second lbd. It's so pretty. Unfortunately it is too big for me. They have my size in mint though but I wanted black badly. And that, was.the.last.piece. *insert broken glass sound. That is why I added the hello kitty there. Sigh, if my boobs were a few cups bigger, maybe a G cup will do == Then I might be able to pull the dress. I really really like it.  But it's alright, I believe something better awaits me.

To those of you who think I can't cook...In Your Face! lol.

To be honest, I am more fond of Asian to Western food and I do cook Asian food most of the time. But my Asian food presentations are rather, meh. You won't be interested lol.

Aglio Olio Fusilli with Peruvian Scallop and Unsmoked Bacon ❤

Cabonara Bucatini with Button Mushroom and Pancetta ❤

I wanted this hair so much! My mum approved my kind of ridiculous approach since I told her this is the last time I can opt for colour like this cause by the time I step into the society, it will be Hello dark boring hair.

Many of my friends were expecting to see me in ombre hair after summer. Sorry for disappointing you guys lol. It's just that ombre was very outdated already when I arrived Malaysia, that was the reason I went for gradient hair. It's the trend you know. Well, if you don't, you must be living in the cave. Or under some rock in a cave. :/

Anyway, back to the point...

And so, being enthusiastic enough, I decided to do it myself! Cause I THOUGHT I was that talented wtf.

Pictures below were taken after bleaching, before operating to the next step, ie painting it lilac! BUT!!! My lilac dye could not be absorbed!!! Whaiiiiii!?!?!?!! So I am now stuck with this shyttie-some-what-of-a-highlighted-strands bangs. Dafuq.

Gosh, writing a blog post is taking up so much of my energy, my gastrointestinal tracts are grumbling. It's a calling, I.need.food. lol Ok, Imma leave you guys with some more of my vain shots while I pay my kitchen a visit. You're welcome.

And I am back, with a avocado and egg sandwich in my hands. I am a happy kid with a satisfied tummy now wtf. Good night peeps.

This is so wrong, I am living the life of a pig. Eat and Sleep ❤ Wheeeeee Me Gusta! ❤

Purple sunset, Polka dot and Paris

Hello! I just came back from Paris yesterday and I miss it already, not. This is my second trip to Paris and I.do.not.like.it. I am glad I managed to arrive London in one piece, don't think I will step my feet into Paris for the third time.

Anyway, I remember Janet recommended that I try the Purple Sunset look and I googled how a purple sunset will look like cause you know, all you see in Malaysia is er...red (?) sunset and for Uk, it's either super gloomy or sunny all day. You don't really get to see the sun rise or set.

This was the search result. First thing that cross my mind was, omg, typical Janet's purple planet. Not surprise why you came up with that idea lol. ;)

This is my first attempt and also my failed attempt.  I will give it another try, hopefully getting something which looks less of me getting punched on both eyes hehe.

I also did a little tutorial on nail art. Whatttt? Don't give me that look, I'm on my holidays now and I am free but not for long, there's very very very high possibilities that I have to start studying for my resit soon fml.

Step 1: Do the simple french tip. It does not need to be neat because further designs are going to cover it and you can't tell whether the french tips are neat or not. 

Step 2: Start drawing the petal by dotting on nail varnish, more dots on the outside and less inwards.

Step 3 and 4: Continue drawing until you are satisfied with the number of petals and flowers.

Step 5: Criss cross with glitter to complete the look. 

It really is A LOT easier than how the outcome seems so just give it a try! I am sure you will be satisfied with the results. However, this is not the nail art I have now. I removed them the moment I finished snapping these pictures as I needed nail design that is easier to match my clothes (since I am going to Paris).

So ta dahhh!!! There were my nails to Paris, pastel pink and purple with polka dots and gold glitter. Simple yet very pretty and elegant. A couple of french ladies asked where I did my nails and complimented on the way I dress.

Lolol! Anyway, here are some photos taken on the first day of the trip. Was really excited for this trip cause this is my first time travelling with this group of friends, they are all Malaysian transferred from the Nottingham campus in KL. ♥

Looked like a zombie with hideous eye bags on the first day due to lack of sleep. We spent our night chilling in Costa, talking crap and also in the train, blabbering all the bo liao stuff lol and regretted the moment our sight seeing tour begun LOL. Really zombiefied la haha!

She is super skinny and tall, I is jealous. 

So fair some more and has the brain, how can all the good thing compile on one person. Life is so unfair. :( *

Super super yummy croissant we bought at the station near our accommodation. This is seriously the BEST croissant I have ever tasted in my life, no joke! It's soft, fluffy and buttery. Would die for one now! Ugh!

Stay tuned for my updates on my second visit to Disneyland Paris, this time, with friends ♥
