Pink + Green, Red + Green EOTD, NOTD

Kinda decided that I no longer wanted to do the usual make up since I kinda suck at it, not to mention there is so many good make EOTD's out there. So, I decided I'll stick to the funny looking EOTDs. Uhh, if that even makes any sense.

So why Red and Green? Well this one I'll have to give credit to Su Mei of Mignon-kira for the idea. It all started on the Christmas Eve party when the whole bunch of girls sat around talking about make up and Su Mei mentioned that she did a Red EOTD. When asked who can probably pull off a eed eye colour, she pointed at me which lit a light bulb above my head. Uhh..

And thus began the stirring in the depths of my heart, the passionate fire burned [insert other dramatic crap] but anyway I saw her EOTD and liked it. It definitely inspired me to give red a go.

Problem faced:
I don't own a red eyeshadow and I didn't wanted to buy any. I'm broke and I knew it was a colour I was only going to use once or twice, not to mention I wasn't too sure if I could pull it off in the end.

But in the end, thanks to the 88 colour palatte, I ended up with very dark pink. It wasn't red but it's the closest I could find. Oh well..

Oh and why Green? Hey, if I wanted to use red, byself make it look Christmassy and add some green. [insert maniac laughter]

Red + Green EOTD




Was so nervous when I first did this, red? RED? Line green on the bottom, add lots of black on both top and bottom lids and apply falsies.



First few test shots. This was one look where I literally sat down and tried diffrent lip colour since I couldn't figure out what li colour goes with this. I tried pale, coral, then red finally giving up and going with pink.



Yes yes, I got a fungus growing out from the side of my head.

I don't think I wanna be doing too many EOTD till I can lose some weight. Mom pointed out to me that I've gotten real fat and it shows on my face. I really need to start exercising soon and cut down on my food intake *sigh* 5 kgs in like what? 4 months? Bloody hell.

First I was called anorexic, now I'm Ms Roly Poly. Great!



Also, right after the EOTD, Elisa gave me a call, told her I can't go out cause I got funny make up on and she'll laugh if she saw me. Elisa rushed right over. Arrived just as I was picking up my make up remover.
Her first words were, "...."
Then, ".........."
And then, "What were you thinking?"

*Sobs*


The end result

Okay, experiment failed.

NEXT!


Uhh, note that you really shouldn't take any of my EOTD seriously, this is usually all done for a good laugh and just out of curiosity. I do not wear this out in public cause I think JH, Elisa and Kern might cancel the outing seeing me like this.

I started experimenting with colours I usually would avoid like plague. Pink being one of them. Pink = Puffy the Dragon. No, I was kidding but anyway, here goes..

Pink + Green EOTD
Uhh.. why on earth this two colours? I really don't remember, not exactly my brightest moments.


Watermelon galore, all that's missing is black dots as seeds

Eyeliner is like muh magic wand, it makes everything pretty
. Just wave it around left and right while trying not to poke your eye out or blind yourself and everything will be fine. Line top, line bottom and voila!

JH was watching me as I did this EOTD, his comment (not in the exact sentence), "A little more white and you'll look like the people from the Chinese Opera"


Picture from Chinese Historical Society of America

*&^%$#@!

Truth is, I secretly love the chinese opera. Watched it every year in my grandma's village as a kid, didn't understand a word of course :P

It's now replaced with skimpy bikini wearing girls who can't sing to save their life while shaking their booties to the Vengaboys on amps big enough to rattle my house 1km away. Nice. NOT!


Dog bitten eyelashes vs very-long lashes
Dangit, what's wrong with me? I sound like I'm drunk

Trying out the lashes I bought from the night market. It's too err,, volumising for me, I look like I got awnings on my eyes. Jobe would have called them glasses cleaners, I just usually call them fans. I like sitting next to girls wearing lashes like this cause everytime they bat or flutter their eyes, I can almost feel the breeze from the lashes. Ahh~ What more can you ask for during hot spells?


End result:
The lips in NYX Narcissus + Etude House Peach Gloss in Plum something *snort*

FAIL, FAIL, FAILED!!

Didn't wanted to post up the NOTDs since I broke my nail - in the middle AGAIN and cut everything short. Wasn't allowed to use bright colours at work so that really sucks but because Christmas was around the corner, I painted them red anyway and just hide my hands when I see the people from HR. Nyahahhaaa..


Looks awful, washed if right off after about a week. Ugh.

Magic: I'm Gathering :P

Two of the cards that I own, the unicorn on the left has been my #1 favourite and is now happily behind a glass picture frame :P


One of our oldest and most respected colleague whom we all affectionately call 'Mummy' gave me some pretty good advise whenever she's free and in a chatty mood. I remember one of them being, "if you can't beat 'em, join em". Rightooo, don't think she was talking about magic cards but I decided that perhaps I ought to join them after seeing how JH is so into it - again after years of quitting. Not to mention most of the CH guys are into it as well.


JH gave me the cards knowing I'm a BIG fan of Serra Angel and Elvish Piper. Yay


But I guess I join them in my own little way. Decided to collect the cards for the art. They have some really super nice looking arts on some of them and Padios and JH has been giving me some inexpensive cards to start my little collection. Decided against collecting anything too expensive. Still need to get over the 'I am using good money to exchange for little pieces of "poker" cards' thinking.


The theme: Angels, Unicorns and all the pretties (preferably females)


More unicorn cards that I badly wanted. I wonder if it's a good or bad thing that I don't own a paypal account or I might have raided Ebay


It's not that I don't know how to play the game, I do but I can't call myself a regular player even. I was taught by a 'certain' someone and since I hated the person, it ended up ruining my love for the game. But beautiful art is beautiful art and I can't hate anything beautiful.

I am a sexist when it comes to video games, online games and some other games. I only play it if there's pretty females involved. Like Lara Croft from Tomb Raider, and females from Final Fantasy. Go play Old Maid yourself though. HMPH!


I want I want I want I want I want I want I want!!!!!


Thankfully, I have a bit of money from my 'cosmetic fast' after another bad run in with an online seller. Have not bought anything online or cosmetics for a while now but soon, I know I'll have to. My usual stuffs are starting to run out. *sigh* Etude house was having a sale with 30% off my super favourite, The Precious mineral BB cream and 50% off the Magic BB cream. Both have gone out of stock by the time I visited the shop. Heartache since I really wanted the Precious Mineral BB cream. It doesn't oxidize to a funky shade, oil control is almost as good as BRTC and it's my shade!


Worst, I'm still eyeing The Body Shop Moroccan Rose perfume despite getting a bottle of Issey Miyake perfume for Christmas from JH. ARGH! Hmm, suddenly it would seems like all the money saved isn't gonna remain saved.


Adds to list of to buy - a nice looking card folder. Preferably must be in pink.


Well then, considering how poor I really am or will be, guess I'll be shifting through the piles of discarded common card box at GameForge that the magic players decided to set up.


Pwetty pweety cards come to mama!


Definitely not cards I will find in the GameForge discarded bin but dang, aren't they oh so pretty? If I ever get my hands on the Twilight Shepard, I'll happily frame that one up too, but I think JH might knock me silly if I did that.

My life is brilliant.
My love is pure.
I saw an angel.
Of that I'm sure.
She smiled at me on the subway.
She was with another man.(Ash: Am deciding if I should rob the man)
But I won't lose no sleep on that,
'Cause I've got a plan.(Ash: Yes I decided I'll rob him afterall)

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw your face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.(No thanks to the fact that I don't have paypal)

Yeah, she caught my eye,
As we walked on by.
She could see from my face that I was,
Flying high
And I don't think that I'll see her again,
But we shared a moment that will last till the end.


- You're beautiful, James Blunt


P.s: Thanks Padios for giving me your Sparkmage Apprentice card. Me love love!

Funnies

If I received a notice like this, I would have been very very worried. People 'hanging' themselves outside my window?!?


This is my abssolute favourite. Saw this on our local newspaper before and it cracked the shit outta me. Emo at it's best and right here in Malaysia.


Where suspicious looking people shop

The soft toy has the qualification of being ..washed in coleslaw?

Errr.. okay

Merry Belated Christmas!!

My blog is half dead. Barely one a a half years old and already close to kicking the bucket. I sit here half wondering if there's anyone out there still reading my crap.

Not to mention, I've been one heck of a lousy friend. That I'll admit. I'm truly sorry for the lack of calls and sms-es of late. Then again, there's only a handful of people that I actually call to gossip with anyway.

Dear Kern,
Hope you're okay. Been missing you alot. It's been how long since I last saw you?

Dear E,
I think, this is probably the only Christmas in a decade or so when I'm actually in Penang and did not meet up with you. I know you're busy working but I hope you haven't forgotten about me. You said we could meet up, but I guess you forgot since you never called back. Will give you a hug nevertheless when I do see you.

Dear Elyn,
I'm fine here. Been extremely tired and feeling lazy. Had fever for close to two weeks and felt all shitty. I really hope to see you soon but our timing has been extremely off since I started working. I work on Sundays too so it's really a pain in the ass that I can't see you. I miss our precious moments together sitting down for coffee as you give me advises on life. I really miss that.

I'm sorry if my sms has been far in between but believe me, you have not been forgotten. Love you lots.

Dear TJ,
I'm super happy to see that you blog is doing super well. I'm still loving your drawings and I'm still envious of the weather there. The weather here is still pretty much 'hot as hell' and probably will remains so till after February. I.must.endure.yet.again.

Christmas



The weirdest but much loved Christmas 'tree', it's actually made from Jobe's fishing nets and the ornaments are fish lures and such XD
Pressies galoreeeee


Christmas eve was spent in the Clubhouse. It's a little sad to know that this will be the last Christmas at the Clubhouse before it's shifted to a new location. I'm hope that despite the move, everything else will remain the same. I suppose there's still GameForge left. Everyone's been meeting there anyway after getting hooked on Magic Cards.


Left to right: Not the best picture but atleast I have something for our first Christmas together; The girls; now ain't Pinky Doodle doo hot?! (the one in white) :D


Oh btw, i.HATE.magic.cards. I only like the pretty angels/unicorn pictures on them but seeing how the guys are so hooked on them is incredible. I used to laugh and tell JH that even if I were to strip down naked and prance around the room doing gymnastics, I highly doubt the guys would notice or bat an eyelash.

It's Christmas and what are the guys doing? Christmas drafting... *shakes fist at JH* This was all your idea!


Seriously.

Anyway instead of the usual Gift Exchange for Christmas, the guys in CH decided they want it to be 'Dirty Santa' style this year so be it. Tons of rules and tons of blur faces (including mine since I know jack shit what was dirty Santa all about) So anyway everyone's allowed to pick a present, open it, show it to everyone and the person after you gets to exchange the present with you if he/she decides that they don't like their gifts. Worst, you can't say no.


Padios gift!
Elisa ate my Hershey bar when she came to visit me! *sobs* I gave her a piece and she ate half the bar!
LMAO! She's too cute


But anyway, I ended up with some shower gel and body lotion along with a bar of Hershey Chocolate after deciding to steal from Flo. Thanks Padios! *thumbs up for the good taste*

Pinky Doodle Doo ended up with Patrick the dog soft toy and JH ended up with an extremely cool looking tumbler thanks to Khim Sun. Khim Sun unfortunately, ended up with my pink Hello Kitty tupperware. GG to the poor guy.

The manliest man with a cutest Pink Hello Kitty Tupperware. Awwwwww...


My love!

JH gave me the box set perfume of his favourite female perfume. Thank Gawd, it's something that actually smells good and not something I had to nod my head saying, 'Oh it's lovely" while hold my breath in. Thankie Thankie!

I love it! *muaks muaks*


Left to right: Tats, Jobe, Padios and kalarblind ninja, Fons doing the shotgun


Jobe is still the champion of shotgunning at 2 point something seconds? That's how fast he finished a can of beer. It's always fun to watch the guys do this, it's incredible how fast they are. And if we're lucky, the beer will come out from their noses XD

Tats decided he wants some Tribal tatoos for a day; Pictures curtesy of unknown CH member via FB

Oh another tip, never fall asleep in the CH, embarrassing pictures of you will always turn up. I've gotten a couple of my own but nothing as spectular as Tat's 'temporary' tats. Then again, I don't think anyone got anything better than Tats. Lucky Dawg.

XD



Christmas Lunch @ Momo's place

I looked like crap but the expression on Tat's face is worth a million bucks. Muahahahahhahaha, that goes to show that one should never make funky faces too often at the camera cause someone might just get a shot of it and post it up on FB. Good timing, Pinky Doodle Doo!

STBY Tats



Early Christmas Potluck Party in the office. I ended up with an orange hand towel. LMAO!
