Poodle hairstyle; NOTD Music sheets; Elyn's gifts

Ahh, what is there to write? Except that I have a hair style that only Poodles would love. Like seriously. No, I'm not in the mood to post up pictures of my hair right now. Perhaps later. I wept sorrowfully on my bed upon returning from the hair dresser.

There was a serious miscommunication between me and my hair dresser with each of us having a different picture in our head. And to think, I endured and kept my hair to shoulder length to get this hair and now all I want to do is dunk my head in a tub till it straightens.

The words, 'I trust you' is now haunting me.



Work started since last Tuesday. I don't want to complain so I'll skip that part or 500 pages won't be enough for me. Elyn's package arrived! What a surprise. Came home from work and there it was, a HUGE parcel with my name written on it with a note to make me burst out laughing.



In it, there was a bag of sweets, filled with green tea sweets and delicious with sticky, chewy plum fillings. Elyn, you shame me. I sent you 2 sweets and you sent me a bag full T.T I was so ashamed!



There was also crackers, sweets, cookie shaped picks and a bottle of L'Occitane Fleur de Cerisier body lotion. Why must you send me such expensive gifts? Didn't I say I'll pay for the lotion? Stop being difficult and give meeeee your account numberrrr~



P.s: I've been trying for days to upload the pictures to no avail. Something wrong somewhere. Had to use photobucket o.O

NOTD - Music sheets

Well, I guess if there's one way to cheat during a music exam. If you're suppose to memorize the notes, just stamp them on your nails :P



But normally, they'll just make you play and tone deaf people like me won't go far even with the notes stamped on my nails.

Rose Rose I love you~; NOTD; NYX Lipsticks

Rose, Rose I love you with an aching heart.
What is your future, now we have to part?
Standing on the jetty as the steamer moves away,
Flower of Malaya, I cannot stay.

-Rose Rose I Love you, Frankie Laine, 1940


I'm starting to gather that perhaps I might have a little problem with Roses.


This is only a small part of my rose collection

I love them a little too much. Only the scent though. It's weird considering I'm not much of a fan of the actual Rose. I prefer lilies; Casablanca and Calla lily are a favourite but I can't stand their smell.

Haul of the day



It's not even lunch time and I have exhausted my wallet. Queen E (Elisa) managed to get some Raspberry mask from The Face Shop for only RM60 instead of the usual RM99. So yay! All hail, QE!

Bought the much needed white nail polish from Elianto again since my old one is drying up along with L'Occitane solid Rose perfume *cough*. Talk about impulse buy along with other unmentionables.

Also, the lipstick from NYX that I wanted so badly finally came; Orange Soda and Strawberry Milk. The swatches from online showed Orange Soda to be a beautiful light orangey-peach. And it is.



I love this seller, the package came in less than 2 days after paying for it. For ONCE, a seller that is prompt. I don't haggle, I don't demand a lot, I just want my packages to come on time for God's sakes!

Then again, just knowing my luck...



I have paid for broken lipsticks thanks to our wonderful postal service. The package came resembling something people have stepped on.

The lipsticks broke and so did my heart. I waited over a month for them!

I knew I couldn't trust Samy Vellu when he loudly promised Pos Laju's (translation: Fast Post) slogan to be "Send tomorrow, arrive today". Yes he actually said that, but what I think he meant was send today, arrive tomorrow. Then again, fast in one thing, arriving in one piece is another.

Well, the colour turned out weird on me anyway so..



I was expecting Strawberry Milk to be funky on me, I didn't fit the MAC Saint Germaine or whatever so I was expecting it but I had a lot of hope on Orange Soda. In the end, Orange Soda looked weirder on me that Strawberry Milk. I'm gonna go hide under my blanket now, thank you very much.

On a happier note, I finally bought some Konad stamp plates after debating with myself for over 3 months.

NOTD - Uhh.. Swirly Cherry Blossoms or something


Sorry, I didn't clean the side of my nails yet.

NOTD; Black Lace with Pink Stripes

NOTD of the week

Black Lace with Pink Stripes

Note that the name is always fancier than the nails. It was actually an inspiration from a video I saw on YouTube. She even had the Eiffel tower painted on the wedding finger. As you can see, I accidentally painted stripes on my ring finger. I painted the Eiffel tower too but it looked too much like a badly written "A" that I washed it off and replaced it with a rhinestone with silver little balls and call it done out of sheer laziness.

Since the little silver balls came in a chain rather an individual, they were a pain to glue on. I ended up using super glue to glue the damned thing on to kingdom come. Decided I'll worry about getting them off later.

Headed over to Queensbay Mall with Pinky Doodle Doo and friends and bought a pair of black tights for Elisa from Daiso. Pinky bought me a pair a couple of days ago and it was surprisingly good quality. Not bad for RM5 right? They come in black, charcoal, navy, brown and purple.


See, they are thick - just the way I like them. While I was there, I spotted the house slippers from Forever 21. Aren't they just so cute? There was only 2 pairs left when I was there and I wasn't sure if M was my size. Thankfully they were.


Mouse! Or is it Mice?

Girly recently went to the USA for an international singing competition in which she got a bronze. Yay! Congrats Girly. I'm so proud!

Before she headed over, I asked her to get me a couple of items from L'Occitane. She came home with them and saved me a total of RM100. Thanks to shipping the items in L'Occitane are cut throat over here.



The Almond Milk Concentrate sells at US$4o excluding tax which amounts up to roughly RM120. In Malaysia, the very same items sells for RM203 which is roughly US$67 *sigh*

How do I like this?

I LOVE this. If it wasn't for the price, this would be the ONLY body lotion/cream I'll use till the day I die.
I like the scent, it smells a little of vanilla and very sweet smelling. Perhaps some might find this a little too sweet. It works wonders and make the skin super soft. Hmmmm~
The Body Shop lotions comes no where close and even the Crabtree and Evelyn La Source loses out to this. Anyone else going to the US?
