Oh dearie me!

It's a girl

Yesterday i accompanied theboy to change tyres. They said it will take a good whole hour so theboy whipped out his laptop and watched House. That episode was called Birthmarks. The episode was so disturbing, basically she's 25 and suddenly got sick. After many mis-diagnose found out when she was born her biological parents wanted her dead, due to the one child policy in China. They put 3 needles in her skull. Luckily for her she didnt die, and was adopted by 2 nice couple.
And i dont know why today, this was posted on someones tumblr. It is so disturbing to think, if i was in china all my sisters and I would or might have similar fate!

In India, China and many other parts of the world today, girls are killed, aborted and abandoned simply because they are girls. The United Nations estimates as many as 200 million girls(1) are missing in the world today because of this so-called “gendercide”.Girls who survive infancy are often subject to neglect, and many grow up to face extreme violence and even death at the hands of their own husbands or other family members.The war against girls is rooted in centuries-old tradition and sustained by deeply ingrained cultural dynamics which, in combination with government policies, accelerate the elimination of girls.Shot on location in India and China, It’s a Girl! explores the issue. It asks why this is happening, and why so little is being done to save girls and women.The film tells the stories of abandoned and trafficked girls, of women who suffer extreme dowry-related violence, of brave mothers fighting to save their daughters’ lives, and of other mothers who would kill for a son. Global experts and grassroots activists put the stories in context and advocate different paths towards change, while collectively lamenting the lack of any truly effective action against this injustice.

2012-01-25T15:35:00.008+11:00

First entry for the kick start of the new year, quite delayed but Happy New Year everyone. Also, a Gong Xi Fa Cai for chinese readers, Happy CHINESE New Year. Here's a little find that made me all giddy and amused a few days ago. I was so amused i bought one for myself and 2 for my sisters! Great collectable items, not sure if i can bring myself using it :X

These fanta drinks were found in this Korean convenience store in Campsie. We drank these on chinese new year, and everyone agreed it was disgusting LOL. Well to be honest they weren't bad, it just i wouldnt wanna continue drinking it. Arthur and Ivan kept saying it tasted like medicine, but really, they werent that bad. Sigh, i still remember the Melon flavoured fanta i drank in Japan, it was soo soo good.

Been going around relative places to celebrate the new year. It was tiring but fun. Plus all the yummy yummy food that were prepared! This year i didnt receive much Red Pockets like previous years but I'm content =].

Post-Christmas

2011-12-29T01:32:00.004+11:00

Sigh my skin was behaving so well lately until I starting sweating a little while boxing day sales. Plus it could the sour chilli soup in New Shanghai the head store situated in Ashfield. As I my allergies flared up before, from drinking the soup as there is bamboo shoots and spices that were in there. Plus lately was quite hot, causing me to sweat, eczema suffers don't like sweating much.
Today was also very hot when I headed out to meet my lovely girlfriends, Jojo and Sophia as we were going to watch "New years eve" at the pictures. It was a pleasant movie with good laughs. I'm a sucker for valentines days, he is not that in to stuff, so of course I like this ahaha. Saw the trailer of, "The Vow," can't wait to see this with the girls next year!
We then had dinner at Kura opposite of market city. The jap chick said there were no room here but upstairs there is, n I thought she meant the Kura near the end of Chinatown. But they actually opened a dining restuarant upstairs. With the same menu and all, but prices jacked up and losing some bargain dishes. Not to mention smaller portion too! Anyhow, I still enjoyed it as I was with my dear girls :) the uta-don kinda satisfied my soba craving for the time being. The highlight was really the grape sour shochu alcohol and the awesome catch up hehehe

Don't really have the energy to post my Christmas pressies, boxing day scores and all but maybe if I'm bored I might whip out my dslr out and do some snaps. haha lol just came back from toilet and in midst of number one, I realized I got my panties inside out lol (for 1 hour as I recently showered hahah thank heavens lol)

Don't really know what I want to do tomorrow sigh, maybe haircut? Hmm I'll see, well I need to go to the post office to get some late xmas pressies lol. Yayyyy more things to unwrap!

Merry Belated Christmas!

2011-12-10T22:17:00.003+11:00

Today i went to have brunch with Dennis at D2D cafe, i ordered the pumpkin risotto and it was was so so good! They got the flavour just right. It was a combination of pumpkin, fetta cheese and olives. MMmmm!
We also ordered tapas mushrooms and mushroom&bacon boscaiola which i got to say was nothing special. As i thought the mushrooms were undercooked and the herbs were a weird combo. The pasta was lacking flavour too.

Anywho, we headed to hurstville just for a little walk for some shopping, bought some cheap wedges from spendless-shoes. But i think i need to go back and exchange it. As when i tried it on i was wearing stockings. So it slipped in easily and perfectly, now its hard to stuff my bare feet in! boo! =[

I think i want to do another summer-cleaning haha

Twilight Tradition

2011-11-19T17:01:00.002+11:00

I have a tradition with jojo and her gang. We would watch the lastest Twilight installement at Bondi pictures at night after dinner every time. Last night was no different. =] Next year our tradition would end, how sad. but i can't wait to watch the finale!! It wasn't as exciting but i thoroughly enjoyed it =] The vampire make-up is finally getting better haha.

I did some online shopping just then, when i really shouldnt as now im unemployed. I recently resigned my position at Yes Optus as sales associate. While it was a great learning experience I felt this job was not right for me. I had so much fun with my crew and when we were bored from playing with ipads or phones, we would do the most craziest things. Im sure i'll miss many of them.

Calculated Finale

Sorry about the lack of updates, I have no Internet.

P.S. I Love You

2011-09-23T21:31:00.002+10:00

Hello peeps!
theboy and I went on a mini romatic getaway to Port Stephens. It was such a relxing little trip. First I treated theking a 6 course Degustation Menu at our favourite restuarant Waqu. It was wonderful, I would do a review on that very soon. It was my little treat for our 17th monthsary. Then the next day we set off for our getaway :D It was so blissful until the very last day, i got an allergic reaction over an orgasmic Marinara Pasta at Sienna's. Since my immune system went down, i unfortunately caught a nasty flu. Due to this reason i cannot attend practicum because i was considered a plague to my designated centre (lol!)

P.S wait for more posts about my romantic getaway and foodporn! (once i get back into shape and not an infectious disease anymore)

Imma freebird!

2011-09-16T17:50:00.001+10:00

Imma freebird now! Assessment and assignment all completed and i have a 2 week break with only 1 assignment to complete and 4 days of prac to go on!
Since I'm a bit bored, i will tell you the story of my recently purchase of this lovely flat. I bought this on Wednesday when I was on the hunt for uni equipment so that i can finish my assignment, i did quite abit of shopping, and this was one of them. I bought this summery floral flats named Catherine at payless for price of $24.95. I initially thought this was quite sweet until i realised Westfield had a coupon in the Insider magazine for 20% any full price item purchased at Payless. I was devastated haha. I kept whining and can't stop thinking i got ripped off!
Next day, mum asked me whther i wanted to go and have lunch at hurstville. I jumped for it, as i can refund this pair and ask mum to repurchase it with my coupon! Hahaha. We bumped into tiffy and Lopez, mum was too embarrassed to go by herself so she dragged tiffy with her. When tiffy came out of the store she kept saying i was a tight ass coz mum filled her in with my little story haha. girl, you could do alot with $5. Like buy a large chatime?

So the lesson of the day is, to check for coupon/bargains before you head to the counter to pay for your item LOL

Give Me the Moon

2011-08-20T02:23:00.006+10:00

Another small rambling post as i have been sitting on my desk for the past half hour waiting for my 3coats to fully dry up. I painted my nails O.P.I in Give Me the Moon. Bought them awhile back, but i don't know, is it missing something, or too much of something that making it look, um not so right? Since i cant touch or move much now, im not bothered to take a photo, maybe tomorrow. (maybe. hehe)

During my procastinating period tonight, i compiled an enormous crush list! Oh dearie me!. Not soo goodie my bankie. There's so much i want, that i cant literally have. Is it really so much and so bad? It's not like i am asking for the moon! (hah!)
Anyways, i can't wait till i am able to rush into shower and sleep and wait for theking to take me to the wonderous library tomorrow! ~~GEEK Alert!!~~

OH MY GOD... I Need to PEE... NO.. Need to Endure.. NAillls... nails..

fuck. signing off now.

Peek-a-boo

2011-08-16T19:54:00.002+10:00

I havent been into a local library forever! I was so shocked and fascinated with Canterbury Council's new borrowing system! Shows you how delayed i am, no need for scanning individual book's barcode, just stack em on the bench and your okay to go! Sweet!
After work on Thursday, i dropped by at Hurstville's library, i am never ever going there again unless i must! The librarian is so ~~fucking~~ unhelpful. Where as Riverwood, lovely Des, the guy who still remembers me since primary school helped me made countless calls, helped look for books I need and offered advice. I so wanna sack that librarian in hurstville!
I was so unsatisfied, i went to my favourite library to calm myself down and do some serious researching, The State Library. I just love the mitchell library there, it really gets my study mojo going on! I think it mostly the beautiful architecture, helpful staff and the atmosphere gives you a very calm mind, perfect for studying. Tomorrow i might be heading there with theking to do some kickingass studying haha.

Salivating Temptations

2011-08-09T01:08:00.002+10:00

Since last Wednesday i could't eat or talk properly as my salivary gland became infected. Which means it was under the tongue, as you use the tongue constantly it has been a very frustrating and painful experience. You just dont understand, it killed even opening my mouth to speak, let alot move my tongue to eat. Dr.House (haha) and I are hoping it would not form into salivary gland stones, if so i would need to go through a small surgery. But I see improvements, so fingers crossed.

I've been eating soft food or liquidy food for so many days, today when i was uni I was soooo craving an Tuna onigiri @ Totoro, i bought one. It took me forever to eat and I got teary!(had to hide them away from theking) But since im not a very sane person I persuaded(i didnt know how so) myboy to eat Mamak today. Lol. SUCH A PAINFUL EXPERIENCE. but I loved it haha. Even though i was clutching my fist and fork throughout. Oh i left that information out to the theking though, cause he didnt approve me eating so i had to put up some pretty good acting skills.

Anyways aside from that theboy has been so sweet, once he dropped me off he gave me a thermos. It was his homemade pumpkin soup, my food for tomorrow =]

alittle gift, filled with many goodies from america from Ye
thank-you <3

Ultimate happiness

2011-07-27T22:33:00.003+10:00

Most of you know i have a soft spot for pretty lingerie especially with delicate lace, double especially if they look aesthetically vintage. Which means i gravitate to many bridal lingerie lol. I usually hold out until sales to buy my $$$ lingerie as I like good quality ones + healthy for my wallet. This time when Agent Provocateur sent me an email to take advantage of their pre-sales, i was unfortunately broke. Massive tears! So finally when i have some spare disposable cash, i quickly hoped on to the site to find they stock nothing in my size! Shockhorror!! But, in the end i scored this Love Strapless It is sooooo beautiful and intricate, love love love!
More lingerie to come *jumps!* Ultimate happiness!

theking is finally back tomorrow from New Zealand after soo many disappointments to delayed flights! Going to pick him up in the airport! Cant wait to do those cliche run-and-jump-and-hug-plus-give-a-twirl-while-you're-at-thing lol i doubt i will do such thing LOL....

Evil hair-sucking blow dryer

2011-06-09T19:02:00.004+10:00

Today whislt theking blow-dried my hair, somehow 20-or-so strands painstakingly got sucked into the blow-drier. After all the panics and drama, we had to cut like 3 inches of hair to save the rest of my hair. If the dear king didnt have priceless-horrified-look im pretty sure i wouldnt be laughing my head off instead of murdering him.
It is so cold, im surviving on my hotwater bottle these days... too too cold. I finished all my majors, not the best i can do, but it suffice. My sanity is more important lol. One more final and im free!

I better grow up tomorrow and put my act together!! Need to finish one which is like 20% done at the moment, and i'll leave the other one later because i know i can pull an all nighter for that one since i like the topic =P

1. antibiotics// 2.eos lip balm// 3. mocks for iphone
These 3 items as of late are like used/consummed frequently.

I finished my last capsule last night, and im 95% recovered but there are still some lingering phelm & sinus. I must thanks them for getting mebetter, and everyone who took care of me! Oh its great to be treated as V.I.P! sick? sure u can cut through the queue. LOl thouse my personal Dr.House lol

I was given a cute lil bag filled with 3 eos lip balm a while back from bestie jojo. They are soo adorably looking and smells delicous. After application you indeed have very moisturising and nice scented lips, but it comes off to easily and cant beat my Nivea's Repair and treatment lipbalm, by far the best lippie i tried since i'm alive.But still my eos eggie sits on my desk and i use it constantly because of the chilly weather, to prevent chapped lips =D

The yellow fuzzy mocks was one of the gifts from roger to protect my iphone. It so snug and practical! it saved my life many times =] I'm getting many compliment from my clients! Man i've been selling so many white iphones, i want one myself! Sigh. Talking about work, i got mystery shopped and i got 95%!! hoorrraayy!! Too bad we had a change of ownership of my franchise, now a corporate business. I would of received 100$ commission for my mystery shop. As of this week i could of got 400$ worth of commission alone due my sales performance. im sad. work sucks now.

Better treatment

2011-05-18T21:57:00.004+10:00

I find that this year, i have been very weak and ill. After alot of reflecting, i realised I have unconsciously treated my body badly as of late. Just last saturday i caught another round of flu-ies. I still having the sniffies, green and icky hahaha. Sigh, just after i recuperated, i once again put a toll on my weak body. I'm not taking after you properly, im so sorry, such a bad owner. the irregular hours of sleep, water/nutrition intake, and working/uni hours are good indicators of why my body is giving in.

Anywhos, people have been saying i look more mature with medium length hair. Yeahs! i cut my long hair! I'm kinda getting use to it, im also considering maybe going a few inches short, and dye my hair back to black for the winter. but still considering! No pics yet, since i look pretty gross, y'know sick 'n all. =D

i've been actually been kinda blogging, well lemme explain... i've been typing up potential blog post, but i have a tendency of forgetting to post it. Then in the end i decide not to post it lol as its like saying "today... tomorrow... i willl..." like the tense and shit are not applicable no more, or its just too old the post so yadda yaddaa bye bye post! lol

it has been an long overdue time since i last blogged. Many things has happened, good and bad. I've been depressed too as i lost something very precious at the eastershow, and my heart aches when ever i think/seen/mention about it.

The most interesting thing that i have recently done was maybe the Thunder Jet ride with theboy. it was very wet. LOL But funnn! Oh and I caught a glimpse of Robert Pattinson on the primiere night.

Another was that i resumed working once again. Gianpiero and I was totally hammered flat out Saturday as we were understaffed. Sunday was nice day chilling out with Stenley. I'm currently seeking a new job.

Oh and im lying about the Rob glimpse LOL me and theboy ran for our lives when we saw so many people. we will be trampled to death, us shorties!Oh and i had a pretty good 21st, thanks everyone! =D Even though the actual day i was vomitting. harhar.. =.= But on the celebration it didnt turn out like it should, but i was content. Oh and i had many lovely pressies, that i havent introduced to you yet! if you seen me lately, i bet you havent missed the fact that im using my One Language canvas tote bag to death! It is awesomely spacious!
I loved every single gift i recieved, thanks so much for making me feel so special especially Jojo, Yolanda and Roger for the individual handmade pressies. You spoil me too much!

Today had uni and spent the remaining time sleeping at the foodcourt whilst theking finished his tut homework. I want to shop once i have the money!

Major brands to set up shop in Sydney Carolyn Cummins
April 14, 2011

Shoppers in Sydney should get ready as a plethora of high-profile international retailers including Topshop from Britain and Uniqlo from Japan are preparing to open up new stores.

Amid the high anticipation of the Spanish Zara brand opening in Westfield Sydney, Pitt Street Mall, next Wednesday, leasing directors from other overseas retailers are in Australia looking for sites.

But given the distance from their head offices in Spain, Britain and the US, these big hitters will not just want to open one or two stores.

Advertisement: Story continues below Depending on demand, they will seek out sites in all the major cities and shopping malls.

Already GAP is in Sydney and Melbourne's Chadstone Shopping centre and is said to be looking at Brisbane and Perth.

Although the prices of some items may be higher than overseas, having these big names in the city is putting Australia on the international fashion map.

And with the new entrants, it is also giving exposure to the rest of the Australian retailers, as international tourists visit all the stores.

What we can expect to see is a "battle of the brands", Knight Frank's associate director, Alex Alamsyah, said.

"It is understood that Topshop has secured a new local partnership with Next Athleisure and would like to open their first flagship store in Sydney CBD in 2012," Mr Alamsyah said.

"Forever 21 from the US has recently met major shopping centre owners to discuss takeover of some stores of embattled bookstore chain Borders in Australia."

It is understood that US retailer Abercrombie & Fitch and Uniqlo are also both seriously considering the Sydney CBD for their first marquee stores in Australia.

The Swedish H&M group is still talking to some major Australian shopping centre owners and retail leasing agents, but there is no concrete commitment yet.

"There is strong activity in the Sydney CBD," Mr Alamsyah said.

"These heavyweight global brands, seeking roughly 1000 to 4000 square metres, are flocking to the Sydney CBD. The order appears to be Zara next week, Topshop next year with F21 and Abercrombie & Fitch likely to arrive in 2012/2013, while Uniqlo and H&M may follow in 2013/2014.

"Zara, Topshop and F21 will not come to Australia from as far away as Spain, UK and the US just to open one or two stores in Australia. They will open more and more, including outside the CBD in well-to-do suburbs.

"Fashion fans like to see great showdowns of highly anticipated and long-speculated battles of heavyweight brands in prime Sydney CBD locations. They like to see a face-off between Zara and Topshop, F21 and H&M, and A&F and Uniqlo."

In the middleweight class (stores between 500 and 1000 square metres), Specialty Fashion Group is talking to Victoria's Secret and will perhaps open a 500-square-metre flagship store in the Sydney CBD.

Brand Republic has opened its first GAP store in Westfield Sydney and is potentially in search for 600 square metres for Banana Republic.

Billabong is fitting out its 500-square-metre flagship store in Sydney Arcade, while both Quiksilver and Kathmandu are still looking for 500-1000 square metres for their next showcase stores in Sydney CBD.

Mr Alamsyah said that, in the lightweight class (stores of between 200 and 400 square metres) Patagonia from the US has secured its first 300-square-metre Sydney CBD store and will open in July, setting up a heated contest with North Face.

"In addition, Paul Smith, CH, Marc by Marc Jacobs, Thomas Pink and Class Roberto Cavalli are all looking for prime sites in the Sydney CBD," he said.

"Talk that Sydney City retail leasing has been lacklustre seems to be off the mark and there's been plenty of action from big names in retail.

"Louis Vuitton will open its super flagship store at the corner of King and George streets in November and Christian Dior will take over the current Louis Vuitton store at the corner of King and Castlereagh streets."

In other moves, Hermes has expanded its store by taking over the ex-Swarovski store in Market Street; Tiffany&Co was looking to expand to the Escada store in Castlereagh Street; Burberry has moved to a larger store of about 800 square metres in Martin Place; Omega has also moved to a larger store of about 250 square metres in MLC Castlereagh Street.

The Mont Blanc retailer has renewed its store in King Street, Longines has opened its first flagship store on the corner of Pitt and King streets, and Porche Design has opened its first flagship store in ex-IM Lingerie's King Street store.

Day One: Ten things you want to say to ten different people right now
People are not in order! If you are left out, dont feel sad =]

Victim 1.
First impression, your a pervert. but we became close very quickly, you make me smile even at the hardest moments. i don't need to keep myself intact, i can be who i really am, no more facades. You were the first person to make me believe what i never thought i would believe. n i love you =] (im going to exclude the bad shit, you ass, this time round haha)

Victim 2.
You always bring out the better side of me. I confide in you when ever i need to, and you do the same =] Our friendship, is somethign to hold on to. We've known each other for half our lives, and up to this date, we never argued or had a disagreement. We are just perfect!

Victim 3.
I'm so happy im over you.

Victim 4.
You are my gold, i torture you, and you allow me too. Your the most beautiful thing i ever possessed. The only shame is, i never should of made you half a man. If i can ever go back in time, i will reverse that mistake.

Victim 5.
I feel so intimidated by you, i wish i was not on duty when you are on. but i know your doing this to help me learn and you like me alot. But sometimes, im not under you, your no store manager, you may have experience but seriously, you have no power over me. Dont tell me to mop and vacum! (lol) but i love you anyway LOL

Victim 6.
You're perfect. i dont know whether im jealous of you or what. Sometimes i really cant stop thinking he is comparing me to you. You are everything i am not. because of you sometimes i feel so depressed i wish could i kill myself.

Victim 7.
Where are you? We've grown apart, sucha shame. I know it is partly my fault as well. If we can, i would really love to hang out again and bring back what we use to have.

Victim 8.
you really should give me a raise.

Victim 9.
how i wish you could treat them better. How i wish u would like me and accept me. Critisizing, constant nagging and yelling is not the way to solve the situation.

Victim 10.
You bring me amusement and laughter, your eccentric view on life, gives me a new standign point sometimes and a great laugh. Your take on things makes me appreciate the differences and know that your a great friend.

Smackie Smack smack

2011-03-05T12:00:00.005+11:00

Yesterday was awesome day =D Spent half the day with theking bumming around and eating at miso (which was abit disappointing, the awesomeness is gone).

Afterwards went home with him, to wait for my colleague to pick me up for Mackie's Farewell dinner @ Big John. Arthur tagged along to get a lift to hursii train station lol. The food at BigJohns were.. huge... Just the seafood platter for TWO was a table size, and 12 ppl couldnt even finish it!! *faints* and we had other dishes as well! sigh sigh. But i did love the Marinara plus the Mussells =DD

It was great dinner event.Mingling with the girls and doctors makes me want to work more days at the clinic. Sigh. But im so gonna miss Mack Mack =[ Work wont be as jovial as before, her presence really made a difference =]
But congratulations in becoming a Pyschologist =D I will sure know who to look for when i go nuts! Maybe i get an discount hahaha

My new love.

Shifty Business

2011-03-01T20:29:00.003+11:00

So anyone venture to the atms to try their luck at getting the 700$? Since imma St george person i didnt have this privilege but my work mates all got 700$. they suddenly ran out of the store and come back with a STACK of twenties. When i notified theking about it, it was too late, the glitch was fixed ngaww
I know the news said this was fraud, but im wondering how can Commonwealth bank chase everyone up? Would there be a criminal record? There were loads of people lining up for it! Campbelltown atm ran out of cash cause there were too many ppl doing the shifty business lol

As you can see, I was working today. I need to remind myself to buy some mini deo. Cause tiffany my cousin encountered her 3rd crazy pervert on the train today (east hills line) this guy showed his hoohah and start to play and swivel it in broad day light! this is just disgusting. Its not her first too, its her third! like if thats the case, girls bring a deo with you ok?
All the offenders were old farts too. ewwwwwwww.

Days of all days

2011-02-22T21:22:00.003+11:00

It's kinda a fitting song, as uni has commenced and first day felt like this fun carnival day for me and theboy, with oweek and all. Best of all this song played on the radio when we were finding parking for uni. It made me so happy and excited lol it was a great start. Don't get confused, i'm not eager for uni, it was just a great morning, with many joys through-out the day. Just made me wanna dance around and be stupid. Be young.

And today, gloomy and all, it was a day to listen to GreenDay. but i was nothing near gloomy, it was a relaxing kind of day.

Last Sunday, after work i met up with Dennis and Lian, it was soo nice to catch up with them. It made me seem like i can balance with work and socialising. We played this Monopoly coin dozer, it was so entertaining! But my coin-phobia kicked in and made me cringe all over. thats is called post-monopoly. It was a good day as well.

Days have been good days lately, may days like this continue...

Tenga, be my valentine!

2011-02-16T20:43:00.006+11:00

This post will be abit narcissistic(only abit!), cause i have some camwhoring to post up haha, and something interesting things to share lol lol lol

I'm not very sure whether you know about the Tenga Egg. Well watch the Tenga Egg Ad haha..

Anywhoos.. here goes the cam whoring. This is what my new do looks like, the foils turned out pretty good, no need to worry about regrowths or dead underlayers woots.

Different Yolks for different Yolks!
hahahahahahahaahahaha

I lost the battle.

2011-02-13T19:20:00.002+11:00

I'm bored, since im sick took a few days off since i dont think i can work and vomit the same time. Yeah I vomitted atleast 4 times in public, once on the bus, twice in chatswood chase and one on the street.
i know. gross. all in the 2 hour span too. the nail person was like "are you pregnant?" and i dont know why, but i responded "yes im pregnant, im soo sorry" *vomits again*
?!
beautiful.

theboy has been taking care of me which was really sweet of him, he helped me when i vomit, left work for me to drive me to his place. Also yesterday he took me to watched the Black Swan it was so different but good! Rodartes costume design was pretty good for the Black Swan. But i dont understand the controversay for the credit thing thing between Amy and Rodarte.

I went to cut my hair yesterday at Pierre Haddad too, had a $300 worth of cut, dye, treatment =D but only paid 79$ pretty good aye, got half head foils too, since my underlayer is quire dead from the belach to ash blonde, cherry bomb and then black ==. This time i didnt cry after hair cut or complain, i was an happy chap =D

What's in her bag

2011-02-09T22:36:00.004+11:00

Sorry for not updating, been really busy. Though i still found time to hang out with bestie jojo for some girl time =] We did some shopping, ate at mamak and gobbled some waffles at Passionflower. I love girltime! Oh I also bumped into Kat xD Good old days.

Just to make my post a tad more interesting and personal, here is "What's in her bag," post =D
I don't really rotate my bag, when i do i will use that bag for a while. unless it's a huge clash to my day-attire. Or that i just need a smaller bag for dinner or just pop down to get pizza or bread etc. Another reason, im migrating to thekings place. If not its usually:

1. My everyday Mimco bag, present from theboy
2. My LV agenda replica, with filofax refills in it lol
3. My zip around Gucci wallet, absolutely favourite staple item in my bag (
4. Marc by Marc Jacobs cosmetic bag (loads of crap)
5. I bring my umbrella everywhere since Australia's weather is bipolar
6. domo-kun iphone bag, and headphones
7. My awesome cassette tape iphone
8. A packet of tissues & jellybeans

I love "What's in her bag," posts! There's such an appeal to know what girls/guys carry, it interestign and tells you abit of them selves.

Caught Up In A Tangle

2011-01-30T23:50:00.001+11:00

Friday.. work... that day was so intense...

On Saturday,i got the chance to meet up with the girls for lunch which we kinda of got caught in a tangle, but the movie, Tangled made up for it! It was so good, one of my favourite Disney Princess Animations! ;D everything was good, the graphics, characters, disney-twisted plot, humour and the romace <3... i know im a sucker for romcom stuff XD
it was nice to be able to chill and catch up with the girls since i havent seen these girls for so long; fishy, fiona, joey, lian, alice, terry, helen and jenny
lovely dearest people. I also go to see Amy at work, and other people who were volunteering that day. =D

Radiant Gradient

2011-01-26T11:10:00.008+11:00

~~i am currently working, by myself today for public holiday~~ [Edit] I got too busy at work to finish off the post lol[/Edit] Im working like 5-6days a week now so im quite bushed when I get back home(i clonk out right after i had my shower). I'll try and blog though, so here is just a filler entry on my newly painted gradient nails. It's my first time and im so happy with the results.

There's 5 colours, in the gradient combo.

In my memory the colours are...

1. Fairy Dust
2. Bermuda Breakaway
3. 2Nite
4. Secret Peri-wink-le
5. Agent Lavender

Looks pretty neat right? Pictures dont show the true colours =[
if your wondering, i used the sponge method to get this effect since i didnt want to mix my naipolish brush with other colours.

Well life's been work, work and work, nothing different. But i did get to meet with some girls after work on Monday for dinner and some catching up =D

Well on Monday i sold my first phone, and processed 4 contracts in one day! which is like making atleast 5k for Optus! ahah My workers were so impressed, they say im fast learner, and have the balls,ur gonna go lol? Well apparently usually newbies take up to around 2 weeks to be over the unconfident thing and finally be able to walk up to customers to sell. and getting the balls to setup the contract by themselves. =D Also cause that was only my 4th shift! and i did so many sales! lalalala...~~

last time I posted the A&K in arthurs room, this is where i put mine =D

A birthday to the Max

2011-01-22T21:31:00.004+11:00

Wrapped up work and fled to the city to meet the birthday king. Stuffed ourselves with Max Brenners, all this plus 2 drinks for 2 people. food coma. Then went to watch the Little Fockers. Chophouse for baby's birthday dinner to eat espensive Wagyu steaks. =3
He isnt going to officially celebrate with his friends n all until Ivan, his twin is back from overseas =P So i was lucky to have him all to myself ;p
RIP my feet for that day.

Oh and to my Horsham and Gympie friends, stay strong!

Winnie the Pooh

2011-01-19T20:59:00.000+11:00

I was really lonely one night, i started sobbing because all my close ones were no where in reachable distance. I felt utterly alone. All i had was my baby momo. It made me realise how dependent I am on theboy.

theboy tried to comfort me by reading, Winnie the Pooh on the phone for me to forget my loneliness and hopefully fall asleep. When he started to read, it made me realise how much i love this boy. His voice was everything, it was what i needed, it was the sweetest thing i heard. It was even better then saying all the corniest things on the world, because i can hear it genuinely from him efforts to soothe me. You can be a sweet talker, but convey no feelings, but that night i feel so happy and melted into a sweet slumbar.

If your reading this baby, Happy 21st Birthday and 9th Monthsary.

My muse for the day

2011-01-15T19:22:00.010+11:00

This is Natalia Kills performing live at the CherryTree House. Here she shows off her vocal capabilities.

Another beautiful video from Taylor Swift, this is a very bittersweet video filled with wonderful neutral tones and wintry scenic. So fitting for the song
Plus, Swift just looks gorgeous! her hair, her subtle make-up and oh god, her cardigan..
I ABSOLUTELY ADORE <3

Spent my day doing something special for theboy, then just lazed around and had my daily dosage of tumblr lolMy nails in Fairy Dust from China Glaze

I added a comment function, but i might decide to take it off later, so u better comment and hopefully change my mind lol
Anything else you think i should add on here?

Great start to twenty-eleven

2011-01-14T20:40:00.004+11:00

Hello dearest, just wanted to share great news to you, i was a successful applicant! Oh joy joy joy =D

Nows a clinical receptionist and a sales assistant at Optus!

This is what I wore for the interview, a portmans classic LBD, that is 4 inches altered for my petite body. theking says i looks really 'weird,' cause i look so classy. but nice. haha (was that a compliment or what?!)
Like my heels? i do, a rare find, size 33 =3

I could't share much about my life before now, for security measures, call me paranoid but it is best until my family is back from their mini vacation. When they were on vacation me and Momo lived with theking. Which is why I didnt want to blog and tell the world, my house was unvacant.

theking and I parted today since family is back, lol we had sushi train for lunch (yummy ginger) and went to buy giant macarons at cupcakes, doctors, and Mooks for his belated xmas presents. He got 2 awesome Mooks jeans, served by no other, but Ginny LOL.
btw theking bought me a babyliss 35mm curling iron =]

And just for gag. Look what i got for free at uni a few days ago.

im hoping to update more =]

Coffee, the drug that wakes you up

2011-01-04T18:37:00.004+11:00

Woke up early to get ready for job today. Waited for Candy, my colleague to give me a lift to work. Arrived at work to recieve bittersweet coffee from dear Mackie =3
It made my day!

Oh oh! I got an job interview on Friday!! Oh wish me luck, god knows I need it!

I think I fractured my big toe, from dancing like a little pretty pixie LOL. Got an Xray already, awaiting for my results. Great thing i work for a clinic.

Happy New Year 2011

2011-01-03T21:23:00.002+11:00

As twenty-eleven comes rolling in, i decided a new change of face! Please welcome my new simple layout =D
I decided for a long time, what i should post for the very first entry of the year. I was pondering from; what i got/did for xmas, what i did on new years, the stuff i ate, new year resolutions, my shopping escapades, what i did the past few days?.. I couldn't really make my mind.

But haha im tired now, so nothing.

Azuma

2010-12-18T20:54:00.006+11:00

Had our monthsary(lol) anniversary at Azuma. No pictures of the actual dinner sorry lol. After dinner i saw my favourite 'green tea tea ganache' behind the counter @ the patiserre. i couldnt believe my eyes! I can experience another round of Azuma sugar hit! boy that was good...

I'm stuck

2010-12-12T02:35:00.002+11:00

So it is holidays!! yay! & nay! Is anyone having the same feeling as me? I'm stuck in australia, pennyless and bored shitless.

I'm looking for an extra job now, or a job to replace my job, not enough shifts as you all know, i'm just waiting for the one year mark, then i'll ask my doctor to write me an awesome reference. Applied to many places, but i guess its just a bad time right? Sigh. Should of done it earlier, but oh wells. and DAMN, it is so hard to type with my nails! hence all these picture posts lately. (also an excuse to use my cam)

Suprisingly im not sore after the gig, which was a relief since i had work and all. I hit Ye in her face and i was like shit 0.o soooo sorrrrrry. LOL LOL As usual many ppl stepped on me, and i had to get my revenge afterwards xD We met up with Dezzo and Hin at cenro Strattyy, and they desperately wanted to eat this.. at this grilled chicken place, which is apprently 'the bomb'. But Ye and Ivan wanted to eat healthy, so opt for korean in the end haha. Later we trained our way to the gig. Gig booze is so hefty $$ sigh, but that gave us some buzz before Muse started. Muse's performance was great and i really loved their stage, they were like performing on this rectangular prism skyscrapper that goes up and down with screens! quite unexpected.
We were pretty close to the stage moshing, and theking saved me many times from getting trampled or waved away lol.

Few days ago met with fi, dennis and alice for some catching up and cause i was uber uber bored!! Did some shopping and eating holy pho hahah. and catching up alot.

oh god it so late... better sleep, got a big day tomorrow, i will blog about it cause arthur wants to know about the awesome food (i hope) i eat.

Endless Battle

2010-11-06T00:41:00.006+11:00

Just finished a phone call with the boy, since he is exhausted (sick remember?). I think i'm beginning to become ill as well, since i stayed over to take care of him these two days. But it was worth it, too worried to leave him alone.
it a miracle i don't get so sick so often since i work, where sick patients roam around endlessly! It's an endless battle. battle with germs and bacteria. Maybe my body is slightly more immune compared to my highschool days?

I should be assignmenting since i have a major due and a phonetic transript to transcribe =[ gyahh.. I'll start it tmr i swear! On another note of uni, one more week of uni!! then one week of study break, then comes are fearful examss!!
I'm considering of putting a stop on buying shit spontaneously. i'll splurge on stuff i really want and buy stuff i dont really need or want (other then that instant moment: I NEED IT NOW!!.. but later.. why did i buy that?)

I've been surviving on 15 free text in the last 5 days =[ I was like *text theking*
karina: hey can you call mum to come n pick me up?
......

......

.....

sigh.. i'll walk home then.

I need that iphone... Hopefully sunday i can get it done!!

October is sugarlicious

2010-10-25T17:51:00.012+11:00

October is nearing to an end. Not so sure is that a good thing or not~

This month i must of gained alot of fat =[ But was stuffing myself with so many good food =D

I went to two Sugar Hits =D first one theking and I went to was Grace Hotel and second at Azuma Kushiyaki Bar & Grill. Azuma was my favourite as it was pretty, delicate and absolutely divine.

From the Azuma sugar hit selections, my favourite was the Green Tea Ganache Tart, it was just divine! The green tea flavour was just perfect, it also worked beautifully with the buttery tart. I had a strawberry macaron, whereas theking had a grape. My was more tangy with strawberry seeds which was much more unique to the plain grape macaron, but i like the grape flavour more.

theking's favourite was the Belgian Chocolate Mousse Cake with Raspberry Coulis centre and freeze dried Raspberry Flakes. I had to admit it was simply refreshing and fluffy. The dried raspberry highlighted the whole dessert, it worked perfectly with the creamy fluffy mousse! i was savouring the tangy flavour of the dried raspberry. Mmmm

The Wasabi Ganache Tart, was interesting but i didnt finish it as i thought it tasted weird. Its ganache mixed with wasabi and chocolate. The chocolate had hints of wasabi, which why i say its interesting but not my thing.

The first sugar hit we went to was on our anniversay. theking made me breaki as usual that morning, but was really big; sausages, mushrooms, scramble eggs, toasts, smileys lotsa fooood... Ate it whislt watching Ashton Kutcher's Butterfly Effect.

After that had dinner at Masuya's Sushi Bar Makoto. It had really fresh sushi, but that night the service was bad, and theking was dissappointed as he missed out on Scampi! When we ordered it liek 5time, then to be apoligised for 'ourt of order' == Same case with my tataki salad, ordered so many times, and when it arrive the tataki was fully cooked == hard as a rock. Afterwards we went to Grace Hotel in Wynard for Sugar hit.

Chocolate fondant with self-saucing chocolate centre, Kahlua ice cream, chocolate macaron and chocolate fairy floss with 2 chocolate sticks

Ivan told us it was big and heavy but he failed to mention it was a real bang of a sugar hit, so much you will go into a food coma. I literally slipped into a food coma, and my stomach was like i was 4 month pregnant. We had too much food that day. Which is why we learnt to not eat so much before sugar hit the next time round for Azuma. We tackled azuma at 10pm after noodlemarkets on friday night. Whereas we had makoto at 6:30 then sugar hit at 8:30pm, dang wrong move! the fondant... god it was awesome, but deadly sweet. The macaron beated Azuma's and the fairy floss was very airy and fluffy, it was a nice starting point. The icecream was soo yummy and when you had it with the fondant, the gooey innard of fondant mixed with kahlua icecream it was like... Mmmmm heaven... Though i forgot to ask what wine it was that night, but it was way to sweeet. it fully covered the taste of the dessert, which is a bad choice of wine imo. i had so many water that night too, as it was just so deadly ahaha.

Thursday i was craving for ginger, so we had lunch at Sagunga Sushi bar, i was eating so much it was scary ahahaha. im addicted to ginger now... YUMMMM and torched scallops and salmon.. more more .. moreeeee *drools*

Im sorry my photos didnt do the sugar hits justice but anywhoo...
My 2x Wranglers ziggy jeans arrived!! 2x for $40.. haha $260 dollars off... fcukign bargain! Fits like a glove as well!!

Long trek today

2010-09-05T23:18:00.004+10:00

Today was such a nice day =] it started off me going to Chatty to buy dad a pressie for fathers day, which i attemtped yesterday, but got caught up with my own shopping; hauled like $100 worth of nail lacquers LOL and bought two boots. Always wanted though thigh-high patent looking boots. Got my size which is like soo rare! But when i was tryin them on in my pjs, (which was a mini mini skirt) my sister said i was too sexy, so sexy i looked like a chicken which is hooker in english. Well done.

Ah got sidetracked with yesterday old news, today like i said.. got dad some presents, got 2 Levis shirts for him. He likes it so its all good, makes him look younger haha. After that, trek'ed to Arthurs to have KFC, bummed abit, then mum came to pick me up. Mum suprised me with a Pandora beadd!! Weee, happy chap! =DD
Later went all the way to the city, since dad wanted to fix his burner, where we tried our luck on the UFO machines. Mum spent 5 bucks and got 2 massive tofus and a massive pineapple chicken! holy crow right?!

After that, i went to get some contact lens solution since i was running out. I was uber thirsty afterwards, and went to get myself Easyway. I earned like 14 points yesterday! N when i asked how much points today i got, he is like 14. N im like BULLCRAP! == i actually should have like 17 points, but for some reason i dont, so easyway reward point system is totally rigged! i got gyped =[

Anyways after, went home to feed my baby momo. Then waited to go to eat dinner at Campsie to celebrate fathers day. Yummy korean food =P

Now just spending some time tidying up, lately it has been sooo busy, my room looks like a pig sty!!! i wear clothes, then just chuck them on the floor ... you can see one side of the room to get a feel... LOL

It actually looks better now, slowly tidying it. The worse bit is my desk

Today went to doc appointment at uni early in the morning, its actually pretty good! (i cant see my doctors nowadays, since i work for them, kinda embarassing) Which meant i missed lecture. So spent the whole day with the boy then went to tute @ 4pm =] Spent my time making a picture of the sea.... I bumped into DJ and Alison finally! miss them soo very muchie =DD

I remembered Harry said, theres an express bus(20min)to the city from macq, starting with "2" so i hopped on a the 288 bus "to City via freeway". From the sound of it, seems pretty good yeah? but..oh...no... took me 55mins to go to the fucking city! Then me walkin to townhall! then waiting for the Train! dang it dang it!! but i bumped into Carolineee =DDDDDDD hehehe

Me and mum was hunting bags, sigh. No luck! I'm still saving for my Marc Jacobs but, seems quite out of reach now, with all my spendings and saving for overseas. My Canon Slr 550D dream kinda went out of the picture after i my batshit crazy shopping-spree. Sigh Sigh.
I got the strawberries and cream smoothie from Boost today. My Myer Mystery Card was only worth $1 ==. Meh. I went to kmart, to get some office supplies for uni, but the stuff i want, kmart was out of stock! =O So i guess im going to Big W or Kino. Well i should stop procrastinating now, got an online provocation to write.
Dig i say, i quite enjoy my linguistic class? I learnt the scottish accent from my scottish tutor =DD I entertained Jojo and Arthur quite abit =D and.. uh no.. provocations, provocations.. okayyy byee

Hands Off

2010-08-12T22:11:00.004+10:00

Woke at 6:30am today to get ready for work, got to the station alil before 7:30, got my multi2 ticket, then went to catch the bus. Got to hurstville around 8am, had maccaz for breaki. Then head to work. Today Whitney, Candy and I was on duty. Work was quite enjoyable, i had my fun with the shredder. Whitney had to pull me away from the shredder to do my actual work and pick up the phone and goo "Hurstville Medical Practice, Karina speaking, how can i helpp yooouuuu" Which i kinda mastered to sound like a prerecorded message now. LOL
Before i knocked off work, saw Wai Yee, her daddy was at the clinic LOL. tsk tsk now i knowww alll Wai Yee's medical records MUAHAHHAHa.

After work, headed to Uni, on the way a old man, delibrately touched my thigh. I thought it was an accident, so ignored it, to then realise he did it again, but higher this time.. then.. again.. higher again. I then lifted my netbook off my lap abruptly and looked at his hand and glared at that asshole. He looked petrified, for being caught. I said a menacing "Leave!" and he leaped out the seat. That fcuking douchebag, sat next to me when there were many free seats. And for god's sake i was wearing a skirt today! *shivers*

Sigh, after that was @ uni for 2 tutorials, then headed home. Macq Uni at night is really pretty, did you know that? I'll take a picture one day =DD Got home around 8. had yummy dinner. Now catching up on my internet duties, like ibanking, mail, uni shit and finally blogging. So damn tired!!!

Uni isnt so bad since i get to spend time with Jojo, and unexpectantly other beverly hills girls i havent seen for a long time =DD

Uni sucks

2010-08-08T14:05:00.002+10:00

Uni sucks, its toughh.... I have 3 days of uni now, which is good. But i'm thinking of renting a room or get a dorm, its too much fcuking hassle to get to uni in the morning. And knowing me, i might just skip every single one of them =[ I guess if this really does go through, i can see if i can really survive on my own. it would be nice to live with arthur i guess, but there would be too much problems. And mum wouldnt approve im sure. *shrugs* Im just thinking, it might be out of the window anyway ahaha.
What have I been up to? Uni == hahaha. Friday had lunch with Jojo and John, not to forget my boy too. Had KFC, then rushed to my linguistic lecture. The boy joined me too, after that became a lab rat for the linguistic department. One hour experiment, which earned me 5% of the course ahahahaa. WOOTS. All i had to do was listen to a series of sounds and say whether they were differ or not. Easy enough 5% ever.
The boy came over yesterday to watch Gintama with me LOL. Most randomest anime ever, he stayed the night, he just left to do something for Ivan. I'm left here to do chores and uni work. Sigh. Anyway, asked dad to get me a new printer, coz i cant survive without one now. SIGH SIGH

2010-08-03T22:11:00.001+10:00

Anyways maybe i should do some up-to-date posting. Uni just started, and i have the worse timetable ever =[ 4 days of uni, all morning start, and y'know me im not a morning person. And plus, a break every fucking one hour == And Tuesday i have work in the morning, so, that means 1 wake at 6:45am ==. Great isn't it? sigh Oh and im not doing BA and major in Psychology, I'm now in the Early Childhood course, =DD so so good haha. learning about kids everyday of the week.
On Saturday was anita's birthday party, it was fun me, Went to Mizuya first. Then arthur and i left to watch Inception when they went to starbar. The movie was so good, The boy couldnt stop using his brain power! So did i to be honest haha. After movie, joined anita and the gang again. After that, had a run at Harry's Hotdog. Since anita and the gang had it for lunch and we were runnin to catch inception on time. Got home, and i started to get sick. Started off as wanting to vomit, then escalated to stomach spasms. Then finally around 5am or so I finally hurled. Felt awesome to vomit. I hurled in bed, but arthur was taking care of me, and i had the bucket, so my bed was safe =D Because of this i didnt feel a hundred percent genki enough to go to Dennis Housewarming, so im sorry Dennis!

A entry to be posted, finally posted

2010-08-03T21:55:00.004+10:00

Hi, Hi! Got loads to share, well i'm DEAD tired now, but im waiting for the shower now, so i thought i'll use the time to maybe update. So excuse my grammer mistakes and typos =D Should i backtrack or what? hmms...

Thursday 8th of July
Spent time with the boy, and eventually he stayed the night =D i cant seem to remember the details of this day though.

Friday 9th of July
Got up around 12pm to go and eat lunch with family and the boy @ Meriton Bistro. When it was around work time, the boy decided he wanted to see me after work, so he offered to babysit my sisters, so my mum can go and work. So sweet of him. Got home, and found him cooking dinner for us. tehehehe. Watched Lovely Bones, and She's the Man, the boy cannot not stop cringing. When i started Make it Happen, he blacked out LMAOO.

Saturday 10th of July
Woke at 6am to get to work, left the boy sleeping in the house. He told me a funny story that made me go in pain from laughing. Boy was watching Pulp Fiction and suddenly my Dad comes out in just a Tee and no shorts. He wanted to vomit his guts out LMAO. Lucky boy. haha. Hmms.. After work, bussed it to Jojo's place to catch up a lil and pig out on her food and drink coconut chicken soup. Then went to Arthur's Pizza with Jojo, Ellen, Marissa, David and Simon. The food sucked, and they used the microwave to do everything =O Heard the ding ding!! and food emerging with steam from under the bench!! =OO
After dinner the gang headed towards woolies, to stock up on junk. Then straight to the Pictures, to see Eclipse!! Hehehe, like finally, SOOO SOOO good, so much fucking better than New Moon man!
When i got home, the boy was already home. Yeah i ditched him for Eclipse, since he refused to watch LOL

Sunday 11th of July
Woke up to meet arthur to eat Breaki at Chatty. After that... bummed around. Then we went to pick up Tiffy @ Petersham. Then he dropped both of us at UNSW's Roundhouse for the LONG ANTICPATED GIG! BOYS LIKE GIRLS. The supporting acts really... sucked and did not do the job at pumping us and the crowd up, they were Heroes for Hire, and Hot Chelle Rae. HCR really disappointed me in their act, espescially their hit "I Like to Dance"! Bleh, but of course, Boys Like Girls owned the house. =DD MADDD Afterward, we waited for our ride home, on the wait, Follese, guitarist and lead vocalist of HCR and his gang came out for pics, me and tiff thought MEHH and his too gay. LOL We were told to leave so we had a Macca'z run ahahah FROZEN COKE~~~ YUM YUM

OK im too tired, so i'll post this tmr? and maybe add mondays events as well

Monday 12th of July
Had a changed of plans, since i didn't wake up on time soo im just sitting around and couch potatoing now =DD
