Haven't been blogging awhile.
SAD!


So anyways, life still goes on as per normal.


My pet peeves are plenty but it takes a little to trip them.
=(


I utterly hate being ignored.
Like I text message or call, and the person never answer?
Man that just pushes me up through the roof!


Another one would be ridiculous love affairs.
Utterly deplorable really.
A like B,
B like C.
B rejects A but suddenly the world turns their back against B.


That, frankly, pisses me off.
This kind of things is seriously mind over matter (haha my new catchphrase now I think, I love saying this nowadays. NOT coined by me tho! )
Why is it B's fault for rejecting A when B likes C??


Nonsense.


A should just take a hike, yes??


sheeeesh!


Now, let's take a deeeeeeeep breath.
And think : swimming tmr swimming tmr!


wheee~

Expected a date.
Ok I just lied.
I was bored.

So anyways,
on the night of 12th, I decided to really give attention to my legs.
Ugh the unsightly hair man!

I recently bought a tube of Veet Hair Removal Cream.It cost me nearly S$9 (!!)
And because I don't like lemon, I chose the pink one, which was scented with jasmine.
It's also enriched with Lotus Milk which is said to soften and calm the skin during application.
My leg, has many ugly bumps and little tiny gashes because I use to shave them.
So I thought, Hell I need this!!
The instructions were to simply smooth the cream over skin using the plastic spatula provided.
The shape of the spatula is for a better grip, apparently.
Carefully time it, after 3 mins, remove a small portion.
If the hair comes away easily, keep removing, you're on the right track!
However, if it doesn't come away easily, don't worry, leave it on BUT DO NOT exceed 6minutes!
After application, I waited 3 minutes (I have fine hair so I don't need to wait much longer) and using the spatula, i removed the cream.
I had to remove the cream on the same spot 3 times because the spatula is not really giving a smooth scrape to my legs!
Rinse and pat dry.
I felt my legs and yes it was softer but it wasn't necessarily smoother cause the spatula wasn't good.
I did my other leg and used a different spatula from a different brand of hair removal cream.And boy did that spatula work wonders!
My left leg is silky smooth and the lotus milk really works!


I give it 4/5!!


The other brand of hair removal cream I tried out in the past was Dimples which i bought at Mustaffa Centre.

PLUS POINT : IT COST ME S$3.80!!!

It was rose scented this time and the smell was strong!

Even after leaving the toilet door open for an hour, the smell is still there!

Goodness!

So anyway, the instructions were simple and basic.

Smooth the cream over legs for 3 minutes and remove with the spatula provided.

Unlike Veet's, this spatula is similar in size to a typical nail-file.

It's small and thin and when I used it to scrape off the cream after 3 minutes,

it did a great job.

Really smooth.

It didn't leave my skin feeling as smooth as Veet's(still smooth though, just not as!) but what do you expect from S$3.80?

I give this a 4/5 too!

(trust me the spatula made up for the cream)

~

CONCLUSION!

Seeing as how I always do my legs at night, I didn't mind that my legs had that strong smell seeing as noone but me would be affected by it.
My legs became smooth and I enjoyed having smooth legs occassionally. My schedule doesn't really leave time for me to pamper myself and I only managed because I skipped school and work cause I wasn't feeling too good.
The price also plays a major factor because, hey, I'm a student! I need the money from my job for my bills and stuff like that please. Budget is tight here.

You can tell by now which I would choose huh?

Definitely Dimples!

So is anyone willing to travel to Mustaffa Centre to get more for me? =)


P.S : any other brands that I should try out? I don't do waxing. My pathetically low tolerance of pain will make me faint when I pull off those wax strips!

Blissful waking up late today,
and its thanks to Haikal.

7.45am he fetched me from home and we headed off.
the sky was beautiful!!

this is where we JUST left Woodlands.

This is when we were on TPE, stuck in a bloody jam.

He changed his car perfume to this cute dolphin gel.

Everytime he brakes, the gel will wobble.
it's cuuuuuuteeeee!
(Check out the time man. Thanks to the jam, we reached Tampines Safra at 8:41am)
But I didn't mind the jam,

98.7fm entertained me throughout the day!

WHEN ITS LUNCHTIME:

get ready the music, the food, the messy desk to eat,
the mirror in the cupboard behind the seat to check for smudges.
End the day tapping at the attendance station!



Sidenote : will update throughout the day,
meeting 3 babies tonight for dinner later!

Had Popeye's for dinner, at Century Sq branch with dearest sister.

To end the night on a funny note,

I was given a riddle by my labmate.

Star : Ok I give you a riddle. Which bird don't like girls?
Me : *without pausing to think about it* YOURS.
Star : hoi!
Me : eh sorry sorry. Hmm. I don't know.
Star : EEEEE-gle! (Eagle)

I burst out laughing!! I think it's hilarious :/
Or maybe I am simple to amuse?

Sidenote : Star has a girlfriend, blissful together for a year plus. SO he's NOT gay and i don't know why I answered the way I did!!! Just to clear the air ok?

Alright finally this blog is up and running.
AND functioning might I add?

Someone who likes privacy as much as I,
it would seem unbelievable for me to go public.
But here I am now.

Let's hope I stay this way!
*shakes in fear!*

Somethings are upcoming and I sure am excited.

Did I mention there MIGHT be a chance of me going to Pagudpud, Philippines?


Taken from : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pagudpud,_Ilocos_Norte

Pagudpud a 1st class municipality and a coastal resort town on the northernmost tip of Luzon in the Philippines. According to the latest census, Pagudpud has a population of 20,385 people in 3,804 households.
The town rolls over mountains, hills, valleys and flat coastal land. It lies about 350 miles north of Manila. (According to the supervisor-in-charge, it's roughly 10hr by bus!!!)

Most make their living through farming, fishing and subsistence retailing.

Its white-sand beaches and crystal-blue water makes Pagudpud a haven for tourists. Maira-Ira Point is also an emerging attraction with its secluded beach known as the Blue Lagoon.


The main purpose of us going, is NOT to sight-see (dang~)
but to help them build back their lives when they were affected by the typhoon late last year.

But, if the itenerary is to be believed, we will be given 1 whole day to shop.
AND NOT FOR NECESSITIES ONLY!

Before I jinx it, shall end this.
And updating during lab is a huge no-no, what with labmates peering over your shoulders!

I think,after watching anime since pri 3,
I have always wanted to go to Japan.
Hokkaido to be precise.
And from that,
was born the desire to visit every place on Earth that holds such mesmerising beauty and soul-deep peacefulness.


Like what they say, beauty lies in the eye of the beholder.
And for me, living in this hectic pace of life,
tranquility is a much sought-after way of life.


And so, I have compiled a list of places I would kill to be able to go.


(yes my love for history probably influenced some of my choices. But who could blame me? The absolute beauty of age-old bricks that has weathered through Time and seen births and deaths. The dazzling beauty of the sunsets and sunrise as the rays touch, gently, the stones as though to give a sweet melancholy greeting ;

Another day, another week, another month. We are as endless as Time, as beautiful as gems and as silent as the wind. Here we are, going through another cycle of life, until even that, ends.)

The Eiffel Tower - Paris
Who has never heard of this?
Never thought to at least, in one lifetime, set eyes on its majestic beauty?



The quaint and charming cottages of England.
Thanks Enid Blyton for giving me a good idea of what I want my future home to look like!



Milan.
The grandeur of such a building simply takes one's breath away.
No words, no words could ever describe the awe of being there and looking up at such a monument.


Scotland
Need I even bother to go through such lengths to explain why I think this picture perfectly depicts tranquility?
Switzerland
It simply brings Heidi to mind doesn't it?
The unbelievably fresh water and crisp mountain air.
I can totally imagine myself,
greeting the day with open arms and a lungful of clean air, with the optimism to match.
I can believe that nothing, nothing, will ever bring me down.
Istanbul Turkey.
I was granted the fortune of travelling to Istanbul a few years back.
and it was due to this place,
that brought about my Legs That Travel.

The grand splendour of life seems to be at my very fingertips.



Cairo, Egypt.


Again, I was granted the opportunity of visiting a grand place.
I was here when I was in.. Pri 6?
(God I was so young back then!!)


And I remember, how thunderstruck I was, looking at such a great building.
Because of this, my interest in history got started.

The Leaning Tower of Pisa - Italy

Just once, in my life, I would like to see this.
That's all I ask for.



Hokkaido - Japan


The place I yearn to go to.
Deep in my heart, I know, I will be here, one day.




Venetia
Seduced by the intricate tales of romance and mysterious dark secrets,
this place also found it's way on my list of places to see before I succumb to Death.

How romantic would it be, to be serenaded while being rowed down the river and being witness to the quiet, yet resilient wonder of Venetia?




I have others but this would be on my list of top places to go!

Some were born with the wanderlust. And honestly, I am glad that I am. I know of people who are perfectly content staying in their home country, practically quaking in fear at the very thought of having to board a flight. Whereas I am filled to the brim with zealous excitement and bated breath!

It would be lonely travelling all alone but I'd rather travel alone than with a troublesome companion who would whine and do my head in on a perfectly good holiday!


So to you out there born with the wanderlust,
cheers!
may we meet one day in the train on the way to St. Petersburg or maybe Macau!

Sidenote : maybe it's because I'm Asian so I tend to want to travel to countries in Europe. Like the trait of wanting what one can not have? Yeah, similar.

As seen from http://holly--jean.blogspot.com




This isn't triggered by any recent setback or anything... but it's just a thought I'd like to put out here.


Is it just me? Or do Girls always get soppy and want to give so much of themselves in a relationship?


Like “Here babe, finish my drink. Eat the rest of this yummy chocolate bar. Take my virginity.”


And what do we want in exchange? Erm... how about your fucking t-shirt to sleep in?


What kind of bartering system is that?


And many men take advantage of that, “Here’s a sock. I’ll take sex, a back rub, your company when I feel like it, otherwise I will not answer your calls or messages when I don't need you. But the sock smells like me so it’s an even trade.”


What do you think? Do girls give more than men? And do men take advantage of this?~



true you think no?
I think yes.
What I also think,
is that,
2 people in a relationship both give 50% to that relationship.
that is pure bull.
Always it's a 40%-60% or 30%-70%.
You should give the rship a miss when you're the 80% or 90% and the other party is 20% or 10%.
seriously.


LOVE can only take you so far.
And LOVE does not make one do that.
Naturally, you'd want to give your all and your best to the person you love,
not treat them like a doormat.
-_-


This topic kind of hits a spot with me but I shall just keep quiet about all this.
Enough painful history,
need not dredge more of it up,
yes?



and,I'm in FYP.
you can tell how utterly bored i am.

I have always wondered about this conception - gushing means liking.


I mean, obviously if you gush about something, you like it.
yeah?
but what if it's about a person?
does that rule hold or does another -albeit slightly subtler one, takes over?


I think it's the latter.


Yes I do agree that at times,
all you do is gush about your other half.


"oooh my byf is the best! always giving me trinkets!"


or


"my gf is soooo understanding and hot to boot!!!"


but at times, you do gush about someone else.
EVEN to your significant other.


"baby today A is nice to me! he helped me find my thumbdrive, lucky found it.. else,my project will go up in smokes. "
"baby A treated me to lunch for helping him do his report! at mcd cz i was craving for it!"


next thing you know,
all hell breaks lose!


"YOU FUCKING CHEATING ON ME WOMAN?!"


Get the gist?


Sometimes I get pissed by the narrowness of people's minds around me.


Case in point :
I was going out for lunch. H offers to accompany me. I accepted as I dislike going to eat alone. It just freaks me out at times. Ate, had a few laughs and it's back to work.
Next thing you know, Tom.Dick and Harry surrounds me and goes "What the hell woman? You have a guy, stop leading my friend on. You talk nonstop about him but as soon as the day is done, you skip happily off to that boyfriend of yours."


WELL excuse me I can get along with people but last I check, there was no rule stating - only can go to lunch with same gender if attached


Geez give me a break!


On a sidenote,


my nose refuse to stay on my face (tiring having to run after it with a tissue) and my throat is itching to be pulled out!


Thanks Rogue baby for worrying, accompanying me to the clinic,carrying my bag and giving me your love <3<3>
