Hei Beautifuls,

I was just browsing around the net and I saw this "this or that makeup tag" from Beautymeetskawaii - Melanie's blog. It's kinda fun so I am adopting the tag game and do it myself ^^

Makeup:
Blush or Bronzer? BLUSH....love love my blush....la la la la. Bronzer's cool but since I am kinda new with fancy makeup techniques so I'll give that a temporary pass ^^

Lipgloss or Lipstick? I was a lipgloss girl. But sometimes when they are sticky, it pisses me off when my hair sticks on it >.< Having said that, I am both ways. I like the way lipstick leaves a tint after it kinda wears off but I always top off my lipstick with a gloss. *greedy ...hehe*
Eyeliner or Mascara? MASCARA....I love you ^^
Foundation or Concealer? Foundation
Neutral or Coloured Eyeshadow? Neutral!! Well just think that I like to play safe....
Pressed or Loose Eyeshadow? Pressed. Just that Loose is kinda messy to deal with.
Brushes or Sponges? Brushes for sure....and fingers *teehee*

Nails:
Long or Short? I love mid length nails...not too long or short. But if I have to choose only 1...it's definitely gonna be short. I'm a scientist....I won't want to pierce through my gloves get get the nasties on my bare hands >.<
Acrylic or Natural? Natural all the way ^^ *although my nails are kinda thin*
Brights or Darks? Brights for my finger and dark for my toes......only to choose 1......brights
Flower or no Flower? Depends on my mood.

Body:
Perfume or Body Splash? Perfume *smells wrist....nice nice...*
Lotion or Body Butter? Lotion
Body Wash or Soap? Body Wash.

Fashion:
Jeans or Sweat Pants? Jeans....unless I am at home.....sweats
Long Sleeve or Short? Short
Dresses or Skirts? BOTH.........seriously both!!
Stripes or Plaid? Not really a fan of either of them...but if I really have to choose it'll be strips - VERTICAL STRIPS!
Flip Flops or Sandals? Sandals.....but I like flip flops too ^^
Scarves or Hats? Scarves for sure....I look funny in hats
Studs or Dangly Earrings? Dangly jinglly all the way ^^ Studs occasionally
Cowboy Boots or Riding Boots? Riding boots.....I guess
Jacket or Hoodie? JACKETS!!! but I like my owl hoodie

Hair:
Curly or Straight? Body curl.....but I have naturally straight hair till ppl kept asking me did I straighten my hair!!
Bun or Ponytail? Ponytail. Normally, when I am at home/wash my face it'll be in a bunnytail (part bun part ponytail)...is that even a word?
Bobby Pins or Butterfly Clips? Bobby Pins
Hair Spray or Gel? Hair Spray.....no likey gel....weird feeling >.<
Long or Short? Long......Mr.CK likes it long too ^^
Light or Dark? Dark...but have a hint of colour like brunette
Side-swept Bangs or Full Bangs? I used to have side-swept bangs....now *in which I just got a hair cut* I have a full bangs!!!! I like it.....I look really young, Mr.CK kept laughing at it....he tried styling it as Arron Kwok bangs *ish......pissed*
Up or Down? I usually have my hair down...but sometimes at work I am required to have it up when I am doing experiments

Random:
Rain or Shine? At the moment, I am liking Mr.Sunshine ^^ When I was in Malaysia, I love it when it's raining.....absolutely beautiful. Anyho.....I love to sit by the window with a cup of tea/coffee and a book while it's raining....AHHHhhhhhh.....so relaxing!
Summer or Winter? I like spring and autumn........if I have to choose, it'll be winter! Because I can always pile on clothes to keep warm and I can't peel my skin off to keep cool in the summer.
Fall or Spring? Spring......dresses..I can wear ncie clothes ^^
Chocolate or Vanilla? CHOCOLATE......how can you not like choco >.<

Now done ^^

It's your turn to do it if you are interested ^^

Current LOVED Mascara - Fasio

As I was saying about the failed mascara, I just thought I should show you guys my current LOVED mascara. I bought this back in March while I was back in Malaysia.


I have read so much about this brand which is a sister of Kose in Japan --> Fasio. This is the Fasio Hyper Stay Mascara Magne-Plus Curl Long (for length) in black. I also have another mascara but it's the Curl Volume (for volume) in brown. I have been using the Curl long and loved  don't ever get panda eyes from this mascara and my curls were held sky high until I remove them! It's all that I want in a mascara.

Sleek packaging

Comb wand - very easy to control and use, also gets every single lashes

The one in the box is curl volume (brown) and the opened curl length (black)

I also thought I should share my trustee eyelash curler as well ^^ Behold the Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler. I heard about the hype ever since I started getting into makeup about 2 years ago, but I never got my hands on it until last march and it was LOVED!

Just had a random thought ^^ hahaha....I love my PJ's owl prints!!! *squeals*

Idiot No.2

Oh man....the lab does not only belong to you okay!! So, please BLOODY clean up your mess!!! How difficult is it??? You caused my cells to be contaminated...not once but TRICE!!! Holy mama.....you are a darn senior scientist okay.....SHEEH >.<

rant ended *sorry to bore you with the vulgar language*

DISHEARTENED by IDIOTS

Dear diary,

I am sad to say that after today marks my 2nd attempt on driving exam. I am "glad" to announce that I FREAKING FAILED AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!! Why is there always IDIOTS when you don't want them to appear the most?? Why do they always ALWAYS appear when they are most NOT NEEDED!!!!!

The 1st time I fail, I accept the fact that I did fail to give why as there's an obstruction in my direction. BUT, today is a FREAKING IDIOT causing the trouble. It's HARD....freaking hard to accept the fact that I was wrong!!! I AM WRONG!!!!! By not seeing your LAST MINUTE SIGNAL to turn left into my intersection!!!!!! URGH........just because I am L trying to pass my exam, why can't you be nice and indicate earlier????? Just because of that, I have to FREAKING emergency break *which my examiner did it before me....longer legs and reflex* and there goes my licence!!!!

GAH........I am disheartened!!! VERY VERY DISAPPOINTED!!! So so sad, that I don't know what to do now other that writing out my anger!!!!!! Typing furiously, so furious that I managed to break my record of producing a post in less that 5 minutes!!!!!!!! Thank you but no thank you!!!!

Just so pissed.....at least there's a reduction in level......WTF!

I better sign off, before I swear even more and get crazy >.<

Piggy

WTF!!

Sigh.......I think I lost my canon charger!! BUGGER THAT!!!!


I have to procrastinate! ISH ISH...... >.<


Hopefully, my $10.00 purchase will come soon ^^

A joke or the truth

While I was walking pass the hospital, I can't stop my hand to reach for the "pick your joke of the day" basket. Today, I got a yellow colour paper that speaks kinda the truth....I swear that guys *yea you guys...as in males* will darn agree with the points. Without further ado, let's get to it:-

Pity the man who isn't aware of these vital elements of female communication.

When a woman is addressing her partner, the following definitions apply:

FINE

This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.

FIVE MINUTES

If she is getting dressed, this is half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given 5 more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

NOTHING

This is the calm before the storm. This means "something", and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with "Nothing" usually end in "Fine".

GO AHEAD

This is a dare, not permission. Don't do it.

LOUD SIGH

This is not actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood  by men. A "loud sigh" means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you over "Nothing"

THAT'S OKAY

This is one of the most dangerous statements that a woman can make to a man. "That's Okay" means that she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistakes.

THANKS

A woman is thanking you.Do not question it or faint. Just say you're welcome.

Now, MALES isn't that so true to you??? And my fellow FEMALES, we all know that some of the above may not apply....ain't it??? *snickers....hahahahaha*

Have a laugh.....that's what life's about ^^

Random Tuesday Post

So it happens......

This morning when I was walking to work after CK dropped me off, I spotted this "murder" case - refer picture:

Orange murdered along North Terrace
Time of death unknown
skin was dissected and plunged through the gate fence's spear

On another note: My suppose to be "standing" Tacos are no longer standing after being treated in the microwave...Yaya..I know about the water condensation thingy happening in there and thus causing it to be soggy!! I still taste yummy but I just have to eat it with a fork ^.<

still standing Tacos

"Lazy" taco that does not stand and being eaten by MUA with a fork
YUMMEH

Grumpy abdomen

Am having a grumpy tummy now.....feel so heavy and as if it's churning *note: I don't have diarrhoea* 

GAH...........calm calm...I need sweet stuffs like chocolate!! *hunts for chocky!*

NO HOT WATER!!!!!!!!!!!

NOOOooooooo.................The worst thing that can happen during cold autumn/winter nights is that there's NO HOT WATER!!!! Hot water is the staple thing during cold weathers to keep me warm and fuzzy! Alright, I have been showering okay, if that's what you are thinking! I have been showering using the ancient method, and I am pretty sure that kids this days don't do it anymore : )

                                                



Boil water ->put it in a big bucket -> mix with adequate cold water to make it warm -> use a small bucket to scoop the water for shower!

On wednesday night, I went swimming. After swimming, I went to have my shower and GLAD AS HEAVEN I was to have hot water shower straight away!!! We've been taking for granted the convenience that we now have......save water people!

Okay...I think I am done rambling! I shall shut up and keep boiling water ^.^
*camwhore while boiling water XP*

  

DNAs and Skin Biopsies

It's been quiet a while since I've updated my blog, anyways it harms no one as I keep it as my memoir and also to practice my sucky english!

What have I been up to since morning till now?? I've been preping skin cell cultures from skin biopsies...COOL eh?! All I need to do is to:

(1) take zee skin outta its container
(2) cut it into mush
(3) place zee mush into a culturing flask
(4) allow some time for zee mush to stick onto see flask
(5) add culturing medium
(6) chuck zee flask with zee medium into zee incubator and wait for the magical cells to grow!

Other than that, I am preping DNA from cells as well....er....am actually doing it right NOW! Currently waiting for some incubation time to pass...*waiting.....* Hopefully, I can get large amounts of DNA outta it!

Alrighty, times up.....DNA time ^.^

The Future European English

European English :

The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European Union rather than German, which was the other possibility..
> As part of the negotiations, the British Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5- year phase-in plan that would become known as 'Euro-English'.
>
> In the first year, 's' will replace the soft 'c'. Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard 'c' will be dropped in favour of 'k'. This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter. There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome 'ph' will be replaced with 'f'. This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter.
> In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where! more komplikated changes are possible.
>
> Governments will enkourage the removal of double letters which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling.
>
> Also, al wil agre that the horibl mes of the silent 'e' in the languag is disgrasful and it should go away.
>
> By the 4th yer people wil be reseptiv to steps such as
> replasing 'th' with 'z' and 'w' with 'v'.
>
> During ze fifz yer, ze unesesary 'o' kan be dropd from vords kontaining 'ou' and after ziz fifz yer, ve vil hav a reil sensi bl riten styl.
>
> Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi tu understand ech oza. Ze drem of a united urop vil finali kum tru.
>
> Und efter ze fifz yer, ve vil al be speking German like zey vunted in ze forst plas.
>
> If zis mad you smil, pleas pas on to oza pepl.

*Hahahahaha........o funy....*
