Something Shiok

I was at Suntec City, at the 3rd floor. I gathered up my courage and asked the salesman something that I've wanted to do for a long time.

I asked him, "Could I try on these outfits?"

And he said, "Yes, of course."

I was so fricking excited! Here was something that I've only hoped of wearing. He picked out the outfir that I had pointed at, took the uniform off the model's chest and gave it to me.Yes, I was in Otaku House. And I tried on


If you don't know this uniform, you should be ashamed. It's from Vampire Knights. Cool uniform, eh?

I like it. ^__^

But the cost was too much. $139 for the whole set? Mum said Malaysia would be cheaper. And she'd pinky-promised me. So I shall trust her again. But one can't help but doubt if she'll still remember that promise or that the cosplay outfits would be cheaper there like what she thought.

Still, to have finally actually tried cosplay is something that've made me very happy. :D

I've been searching on a video on how to play the backup guitar for Pirates of the Caribbean and I chanced upon



No wonder this video garnered more than 14 million views.


And yay! I've finally found what I wanted.


I want to play this!

Celebrating a friend's birthday

I would say he was sweating and frantic all the way while he played this game. *laughs* Because otherwise, if he could not complete the puzzle in 15 minutes, he had to do ........................


A FORFEIT

I could hear him going about, pointing fingers and asking if they have a colour from the puzzle.


And then some of the guys just purposely tricked him, making Sam waste his precious time. He was screaming "F--- you!" in a very shrill and desperately voice. Haha. xD So cute!

And the time was up. Soooo, he had to do it. He had to do it.

He had to do, The Sexy Dance.

But because he told me not to use the camera or the video, I followed. So too bad for you. You can't see the poses made by him. Haha. He was quite sporty though. Perfectly executed poses. xD

So glad he had invited me to his birthday chalet. I was able to use their bicycle and cycle the pathway! What fun it had been ^__^

(Photos will be posted later)

But the ride was just fun and sweaty. Cause of of us had to relearn how to cycle again and he kept going off the pathway and into the bushes! So cute! Also nearly had some crashes but no one got (seriously) hurt. He improved too. Took an hour and a half to complete cycling in one direction and only 10 minuted back to the chalet. Fast!

It was a great day. And i had an enjoyable time spent there. ^_^

Thanks for inviting me Sam!

Review: Unscented Shea from Shea Radiance

We went out shopping and I had gotten a new moisturiser for my skin.







I got it at One Wellness
30 Robinson Road #13-01
Robinson Towers

 which was a 3-minute-walk from Raffles Place MRT.

It was a fitness club, but they also sold some body care products like body butter, essential oils etc. However, the body butter that they had only consisted of two types, one from the above company and the other from another company. A pitiful amount. But both were 100 % unrefined shea butter.


I've been looking for something like this because I read from the Net that Shea butter could help eczema. And what's better than 100% pure, unrefined shea butter? Yet I still know that this is not actually The One. Because the shea butter I was on the lookout for was East African Shea Butter (Vitellaria Nilotica) , but what I had received was West African.

I can't complain though, can I?

I've been using this for two days now. It's quite greasy the moment I apply onto my body but the feeling will disappear soon because my body will absorb it like a desert taking in precious water. The areas where I used this is not red so I'm hoping this will work.

But to take the butter out from the container is a little difficult. I had to dig my fingernails into it and press it so that the butter will come out. Unlike other body butters, this is hard. Not soft and smooth that once I dip my fingers into it, out comes the moisturiser. Nope, I have to scratch it out. That is the most noticable difference from what other body butters that I've used.

And, seeing that I am a supporter of everything green and sustainable, I only have good things to say about the packaging.




Plus,
10% of the proceeds goes to the Agricultural Initiative for Women in Africa (Agriwa)

Need I say more?

I want an Iphone.

I want

THIS



To tell you the truth, I actually didn't want to get one, even with my brother nagging me to get that. You have enough money what..This and that. I didn't see the need to get one. I mean sure, using the Internet from the Iphone makes things easier but do I really need that?

 I'm still a student. I'm not a working adult. And so, I rejected what my brother said.

But when I went to visit my relatives and saw that one of them had an Iphone 3 and I asked her about the wonders of that (which in hindsight I shouldn't have),I fell in love with it.

She told me that
  1. Going to the Internet would be fast and easy for Iphone 4
  2. I can download games/apps to put inside my (would-be) Iphone
  3. It is convenient.
  4. I can go online everywhere and anywhere as long as I get a data plan.
And last but not least, I found that Iphone 4 can also act as a

 E-READER

And that's precisely why I did a 180 degrees in my attitude towards Iphone.

I want that E-reader.

I want it.

But of course, what I want isn't what I need. And that doesn't mean that I/my parents can afford that for me, seeing that the data plan costs $40 per month. Which would be $480 per year.

 Do I earn any money? No.

Do I need it for my studies? No.

Can they afford? Yes, but no.

And ... after sulking for a few minutes, I see their point. Perhaps I'll wait until next year till I bug them to buy one for me. Perhaps then I could get one of these babies

Happy Chinese New Year!!

Xin Nian Kuai Le

Wan Shi Ru Yi

Xin Xiang Shi Cheng

Qing Chun Mei Li

Shi Ye Cheng Gong

Gong Xi Gong Xi!!





It's another new year -- the year of the Rabbit, to be precise



-- and that means . . .

More Ang Paos!! Yeah! I wonder how much I've received. ^__^

Chinese New Year is definitely the time to go visit my relatives, my favorite ones. They're always so hyper and incredibly fun to be with, all of them chatting and joking about. Even though most of the time I can't understand what they're talking about, just seeing their expressions are more than enough to make me laugh along. I bet you couldn't find a more heart warming family anywhere.



And since we'd all gathered there, we started our

ANNUAL NIGHT GAMBLING DEN


 
It's almost a tradition for that to happen every year. Haha. That's the time when all the cards come out and the majong table is put to used. Some lost, some won. I didn't lose too much. Only 5 for the two nights of playing. And we had laughed ourselves silly while playing. :)

Too bad that had to end though. ... But there's still next year!

JJ Odyssey Orientation 2011

WAS JUST AWESOME!!!!

Nothing could beat the JJ Night, where we partiiieeeeed! Jumping up and down, moving to the beat of the music and singing so loudly with the Emcees!! Wooooooohoo~

The next best is the Haunted Cave. Hehe, I heard some girls screaming! They were so shocked when the ghosts appeared. Even the ones that said they weren't afraid screamed. HAH!  I didn't. And I was the first pair, together with my partner. Proud of myse-elf. :D

I met many people during this camp and I've got to know would-be friends. All thanks to this OG. We exchanged phone numbers and added each other on facebook. Hehe. I also saw many of my primary school friends there. I wonder if they still remember me . . . Probably not.

But still, I had plenty of fun here at this JC. It shows that JJ is not a bad choice after all. Hahaha, I think I'm falling in love with this school. With my school. :)

 Not forgetting to thank the wonderful OGLs which had made this camp so wonderful. Without them, I think this exhilarating feeling that I've felt in these 3 days would not even exist, the feelings that I thought would only happen in mangas.


Thank You So So Much!!
