Being emo... again

Okay, I didn't fall out of the face of the earth.
Just nothing inspiring, been busy with work & stuff.
These 2 months + haven't been exactly good or memorable I guess.

This has been bothering me for a while. (It happened almost 5 months ago)
I don't know why, some people change in a matter of seconds.
I can't barely recognized him anymore.
One minute I thought like I've known him forever, the other minute he's like a stranger.
Complete stranger.
We planned our future so much, and just overnight, all forgotten.
Why people change? They moved on, and you are left behind.
Chasing their shadows.
There you are, longing them to come back, but deep inside you know they never will.
It hurts. Like hell. It still do.
Hard to go on with life as usual.
When everything you do reminds you of him.
So, why people change?
It's scary. 

Moving on, meet other people.
Of all the people, they could never be compared to him.
Thought he was the one. So naive.
Now I am kinda relationship phobic.
Come & join my pity party T-T

In the span time of these few months, the hardships my family are enduring is suffocating.
Fear, confusion & worried.
I know everything happened for a reason but why do they attacked all together at once.
I don't think they could hold on any longer.
This song is sooo our situation.

The Fray - You Found Me
I found God
On the corner of First and Amistad
Where the west
Was all but won
All alone
Smoking his last cigarette
I said, Where you been?
He said, Ask anything.

Where were you
When everything was falling apart?
All my days
Were spent by the telephone
That never rang
And all I needed was a call
It never came
To the corner of First and Amistad

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why’d you have to wait?
Where were you, where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, You found me

In the end
Everyone ends up alone
Losing her
The only one who’s ever known
Who I am
Who I’m not, and who I want to be
No way to know
How long she will be next to me

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why’d you have to wait?
Where were you, where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, You found me

Early morning
The city breaks
I’ve been calling
For years and years and years and years
And you never left me no messages
You never sent me no letters
You got some kind of nerve
Taking all I want

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Where were you, where were you?

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why’d you have to wait?
Where were you, where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, You found me

Why’d you have to wait
To find me, to find me?


Sometimes I am so tempted to run away.
Away from all these mess.
Peace & stillness. (okay I am not taking bout' death, choi!..More like New Zealand kind.)
Bliss.

Now, work.
I am so sick of it.
It's not what I wanted to do at the 1st place.
Now it's only the money, not the passion.
Same mundane situation everyday.
I want to do things on my own, at my own pace, me being in charge.
People in the office are so fake. Wearing masks everyday.
They could be acting all friendly but backstab you behind your back.
I really loathe this kind of environment.
You can't really trust anyone. Just you yourself.
When I first joined, they will be like "oh, welcome to the big family"
Big family my arse!

I really wanna do the working holiday thingy in UK T-T
5 years target. By 28, I shall be there!

Okay, ranting done.
Now I am back to my cheery self.

PS : I've bought some skincare & makeup stuff! Should I review all of them???

2009

Yeap peeps,after a long hiatus, I'm finally back into the blogging scene!
Didn't end 2008 with a bang,
sleeping in hospital bed instead.... looooong story.
Greeted 2009 with truckload of work, pathetic....
Anyways, I'm not being emo lah, life is a blast nevertheless.
In a good way!

Okay, here's the lowdown, which I don't know why you even bother to read instead of Youtube-ing.

I have a few seizures and the last one is on New Year's Eve.
Every aftermath it left me feeling tired and sick. No kidding.
So the last one was the worst. I don't know what's wrong & I never had seizures before, 
so after a few times it happened, instinct kicks in & I went to see a doctor.
He's like so bizarre, all I want is a MC but he lectured me (coz' I told him I wanna go back to sleep instead of going to the hospital) and a letter to admit to hospital.
He even try to scare me by saying..'how can you take this lightly??! It might be a brain infection or a tumour!!'...
I was like..wookay... My dad was like... omg!!omg!! really???omg!!!! 
So went to hospital and done all kind of tests.
Results: my left brain is the culprit! Scans detected that it's abnormal which made my system go haywire so now I'm on med. It's ok, but one of the side effects from the drug is gettin fatter...OMG!!
Apart from the long grandma's story I just typed, 
I am really touch by the people who visited me.
Your visits means so much to me! Sob...sob... Coz I am so bored to the core! haha
Seriously, really 'gan tong' lor, never expected a stadium worth of ppl to visit me (ok Im exaggerating) & my family.... they . are . simply. amazing! 
Tell your parents & siblings that you love them okay!
And peeps buy insurance!! Bloody hospital is so expensive!! My 3 days & 2 nights stint costed about RM2500+!! 
Thank God my mum forced me to buy insurance a few years back. 
If you happen to admit to the hospital, and you are insurance covered... 
go to Gleneagles Hospital!  (ok touch wood!!)
Damn syok lah! there's tv in front of yr bed, with Astro! and they serves you 5 meals a day!

Now move on,
WORK
is blah....
everyday it's the same mundane routine,
and I've only start working here for 2 months!
Is this normal??
I wish I can do something that I enjoy doing, 
Why people can't always get what they want??
Thought of being an online entrepreneur
Well, as the saying goes 'No pain, no gain...'
So starting by doing research 1st... 
Hopefully one day I can sleep till 12pm, shopping mall visits at 2pm
and only work when I'm feeling hardworking :D

Hope everyone's 2009 will be a great one!

Stop Live Dog as Shark Bait!


Came across this in facebook.
Saw pictures of it, so gore.
I don't dare to watch the video. (T_T)
These people are totally inhumane, stray or not, these dogs doesn't deserve this.
And by the way, hunting for sharks is just as cruel as well!
Damn these chinese people (in general? and yes I am a chinese but I don't eat sharkfin, so I'm good) use shark's fin in their soup,(the one who invented this dish is ought to be shot) 
you know how these morons harvest their fins??
They catch them on boat, slash off its fin and dump the shark back into the sea.
Eventually the poor thing will bleed to death and die. Such cruelty....

Back to the poor doggies...

"Live and dead dogs and cats are being used as shark bait by amateur fishers on the French-controlled island of Réunion, according to animal-welfare organizations and local authorities. 

The small volcanic island off Africa's east coast is bursting with stray dogs—upward of 150,000, says Reha Hutin, president of the Paris-based Fondation 30 Millions d'Amis (the Thirty Million Friends Foundation). 

Hutin sent a film crew to Réunion this summer to obtain proof that live animals were being used as shark bait. The goal was to expose the practice on the animal rights group's weekly television show. 

It didn't take long for the film crew to find three separate cases, she said. 

A videotape and photographs show the dogs with multiple hooks sunk deep into their paws and snouts." 
Innocent stray dogs are being skewered alive and being dragged behind boats as shark bait. Help us sign a letter to the French government to ask for an end to this inhumane practice in Reunion Island (French-controlled). We are asking the government to make sure this never happens again. You can WATCH THE VIDEO that shows the poor dog being rescued here.

Here's how you can help, sign the petition here.
It only takes a minute of your time to save them.

Ridiculously cheap good eyeshadows

Was shopping in The Mines (Seri Kembangan) and found this shop 
'Sera Cosmetics' (next to Hot Market, 2nd floor)
selling amazingly good eyeshadows in array of 
colors for RM 5 each pan!
They even throw in a free sixer refill palatte (to hold the pans) if you purchase 6 colors or a free 12-colors pan refill palette if you purchase 12 colors.
All these plus a free clear lip gloss!
OMG!
It cost the same as Elianto's normal eyeshadow pan but this is 10x better.
It's very pigmented, creamy, shimmery (even without base) and stays on all day.
So if you are just experimenting or looking for alot of colors to play with, but are too poor (like me, sob) to purchase branded ones, this is heaven sent!


Creamy, very pigmented, shimmery eyeshadows

I know the logo is kinda fugly, but oh well, it's free!~

Mineral Makeup Sample Storage

If you have gazillion of mineral makeup samples
that comes in ziplock baggies or in lil' jars like mine,
why not store them in a Pill Box Storage Case?
This way, you don't have to waste time digging or searching for a particular colour in a pile.
After tranferring,  stick the stickers that comes with it so you'll know what's in it at a glance.
Cute eh?
Your lil' mineral makeup palatte.

Apple Cider Vinegar + Green Tea Toner

Wahh my 100th post. (*≧▽≦) 
I've found the best toner ever and it doesn't even cost a dime!
Best of all, it really works and it's chemical & preservative free!
I've been using this for 3 weeks and my usual oil slick face are now less oily.
No blotting now for every 3 hours.
No major breakouts.
No crazy friggin' pizza face day.
This toner works best for oily skin. It's acidity is not suitable for dry skin.
Apple Cider Vinegar's acidity will naturally exfoliate, renew and balance skin's PH while Green Tea is loaded with anti-oxidants that aids anti-ageing.

All you need is :
Apple Cider Vinegar ( I use Bragg's Unfiltered ACV, I like em' au naturel)
Green Tea 
Glass bottle

I mix about 1/3 or 1 big spoonful of ACV into half cup of brewed green tea (cool it off first).
You don't have to make a full bottle, half of it should be enough.
I changed mine fresh after 2 weeks.

Caution!
Use sunblock everyday because the ACV mixture will make your skin thinner and more susceptible to sun damage.

Albums that make my November rockin'!

Ne-Yo - The Year of the Gentleman
I've always like Ne-Yo's abillity to weave stories into his music just like Taylor Swift. (He also penned for other artists such as Beyonce's 'Irreplaceable' and Rihanna's 'Take A Bow')  
Songwriting & production wise, I think he excels better than his peers & throughout the album, he is capable of bringing you an array of emotions.
Each songs tells a story, I'm sure there are at least one of it that applies to you, haha.
Like Miss Independent =  he's attracted to independent girls, 
Fade Into The Background = his ex is getting married and he's regretting of the missed opportunity,
Lie To Me = refuse to believe that his girlfriend is cheating on him.
My fav: I wanna say the whole album! But oh well... Miss Independent, Nobody, Single, So You Can Cry, Fade Into The Background, Lie To Me


Taylor Swift - Fearless
As I have previously raved about this album, this girl is super talented and wise beyond her years! Congrats girl on being debuted number #1 on Billboard! Her lyrics is like she's writing a personal diary, perfectly constructed, story begins and ends. 
A line of lyrics from Hey Stephen where she sings about a crush on this guy (said to be written about Love & Theft band member, Stephen Barker Liles) - "All those other girls, well they're beautiful but would they write a song for you?" so cool right?? 
Forever and Always were written about (idiota) Joe Jonas,  but why waste time writing a song on him??
Change is included in the AT&T Team USA soundtrack and White Horse was in Grey's Anatomy season premiere.
My fav: Tempted to say all, but again, o well... White Horse, Love Story, The Way I Love You, You're Not Sorry, Fearless, Change


Beyonce - I Am... Sasha Fierce
Her latest album offers two compelling sides of her, which splits the album into 2 disc set, one being Beyonce, the romantic, soulful & mellow one and the other being Sasha Fierce, sexy & agressive. Her first 2 singles from each disc, If I Were A Boy & Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It) kicks off with a pretty good vibe but somehow this album has a rather lukewarm reviews saying this is purely marketing gimmick. Marketing gimmick or not, there are quite a number of good tracks! 
My fav: If I Were A Boy, Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It), Halo, Disappear, Ave Maria, Diva, Radio


James Morrison - Songs For You, Truths For Me
All the album I've posted here are good lah, so this is no exception. His 1st single You Make It Real from the album is so sweet you wish your man would sing it to you aye, hehe.
Something about his raspy & breathy voice makes him a perfect combo with his tunes. The pairing with Nelly Furtado in Broken Strings was quite suprising
His raspy voice and her high pitch vocal creates variety. The song is itself is pretty strong and meaningful. Nothing Ever Hurt Like You is outstanding with old-school vintage, soul and soft rock.
My Fav : You Make It Real, Broken Strings, The Only Night, Nothing Ever Hurt Like You, Fix The World Up For You, Dream On Hayley


Britney Spears - Circus
This album is pretty good, very Britney. You can actually feel like she's gettin' grip on her life & taking music seriously now. Some media said she recycled her stuff in this album 
(ex: the song Radar is in her Blackout & Circus album or tracks in Circus have similarity with her previous efforts)
but being Britney = pop princess, you know you'll be getting pop stuff, what 'something different' you want from her people? R&B? Give her a break! I personally think this album rox!
My fav : Womanizer, Kill the Lights, Unusual You, Circus, If You seek Amy, My Baby 

Twilight review, new company and stuff

Officially saw TWILIGHT!
Sad to say, a lil' dissapointed.
Maybe my expectation was like skyrocketing high, but oh well.
The book describe the Cullens as if they are the most magnificent, beautiful being,
but the cast was like meh....ops... except for Carlisle Cullen, he was spot on.
Just as the book described him :D
Rosalie supposed to be the beautiful one among them...but eh...
Edward is oookay, thumbs up for the perfomance, but in looks department I totally think that they should choose Ben Barnes instead (*≧▽≦) 
(yes me & my ben-atic addiction)
Okay I know, he looks way over 17, so no go....
How about Chase Crawford? Perfect right? 
Can I say omg? he's sizzling hawt!!
Our bdays are only 9 days apart.
20 degrees closer to Chase? (*≧▽≦) 

Is it me or does Kirsten Stewart (Bella) seems stiff?? 
The chemistry between Bella & Edward was kinda depressing. 
If you love someone so intensely, you can see and feel it right?
But I don't see it between them? Like they were so awkward?
Crossing fingers for the follow up movie 'New Moon' gonna be better.


Ahh, work life.
You either love it or hating it.
It's kinda in between for me.
I don't know, ever felt like you 're doing stuff over and over and loathe the sight of it at the end of the day?
Okay lah, it was not that bad.
This new company I'm in is kinda cool.
Dunno whether I can say this or not, but I figure it's only frens here so...
I am working with Ginvera, brands under my wings now are Bio-essence & Nugeno.
Yet to try their stuff, will let you peeps know once I've tried their highly acclaim miraculous 'Face Lifting Cream' .
Let's see whether it can lift my humongous fat cheeks or not.
Yea, learning stuff, being a guinea pig smelling fragrances for skincare (yes, they use the staff as guinea pigs for this kinda stuff), staff purchase (omg!), staying back late, like real  late every now & then... 
coz I'm a slow-poke and Bio-essence have damn good business that they can afford to throw out gazillion of ads, means more work for me, to the extend of skipping lunch? Yea I am that responsible, I forgot to eat when my work is not done.
If you are loaded and wanna hire me (5 figure salary only), my contact number is 01x-xxx xxxxx


Went to personal makeup workshop today with Sis & Venus.
When we're using blades to tidy up our brows,(don't use tweezer, skin will lose elasticity
I accidentally nicked my finger.
Such a klutz.
I am proven accident prone :(

That's all for my MIA stint. 
Cheerios!
