Cosmoprof ♥
I still can remember one of the days in secondary school. It was chinese lesson. I drew on a chinese textbook, what I wanted to do after my poly life. At that time, I was already fixed on going to a polytechnic instead of a junior college. But I did tell myself I would consider a junior college if my L1R5 turned out to be a flying 10 and below. Ha. For easier access to a university.
My step after poly, was to work a year, then go back to take a degree (which I don't know why). Then I would work and study at the same time, and save money for a professional makeup course immediately after my degree, in which I were to continue that path down my life. Actually I couldn't remember if getting a degree was under one of my paths. But I supposed I did, cuz I remembered telling myself to consider junior college if my results were good. Yeah, but, I was born not able to enjoy school of degree-level and above. :/
With limited access to the internet then, I couldn't use the net to research about makeup schools. Come polytechnic, I researched the various makeup schools and set my eyes on Cosmoprof Academy.
Yea, and so, now, having failed bridging to UOL, which caused me to dislike studying even more, I went to Cosmoprof.
It's a little bit scary. To imagine myself 5 years later without a degree. That freaking piece of certificate that a lot of people thought could define a person's, what, intelligence or something? Or to get good jobs and be rich in future. I don't know why I don't see that. Even if you have Masters. Uhhh... So? Ya, you'll be holding higher positions and earning bigger moolahs. But that doesn't mean people with no masters can't make big moolahs too. Opportunities still is a factor.
And yes, so it's really very sad that I don't see getting a degree is very, very important. Sometimes I'm so worried with my thinking, and start fearing for the future. But, aiya, just set my mind lo. Don't regret the choices you've made.
I think I am optimistic in a little bit of a different way than others. :/
Of course, who will know, I may be going to a private school to get a degree, probably something NOT MAJORITY involving math, like banking and finance. *cries*
I enjoy studying marketing cuz it's not boring. Maybe will go and get a degree. Or maybe a degree in English. If there is any!
Back to track, my interest, is in makeup.I hate myself because when I was in secondary school, my co-curricular activity was being a member of the dance society. So when we put makeup, thick ones, for stage performances, I had no idea some thing call MAKEUP REMOVER actually exists. So ya. Sorry. Random a lil bit. But ya! So I hadn't removed my makeup properly for freaking 4 years. I was so simple then, no makeup, don't even know what is a makeup remover.
But oh ya, in primary school, I tested my mum's makeup out. HEH. Isn't that some thing ALL girls will do?!
But yea. I guess I was in love all the while. With makeup. So much that I needed to keep the residue on (or rather, literally
IN my face) for 4 years.
WAIT. I performed an indian dance when I was in Kindergarten. Freaking thick makeup, with diamontes and crystals on my face. And no proper washing after that too! :( No wonder my face complexion isn't perfect now. Boo. It could have been perfect.
BUT SOOOOO! Cosmoprof. I was like in heaven. My classmates, all with the same love, same interest, same curiosity, same dream. ♥
I wasn't that professional. YET. Haha. But pretty happy with everything. My works, my teacher, my classmates. Seeing color palettes cheer me up. Almost instantly. Seeing makeup brushes is so... A happy thing for me too...
Some pictures taken during class...
Day bridal makeup, done by my fellow artist, Lulu.
Night bridal makeup. I drew on Lulu.
Colour bridal photography. But I drew on Tingting. Hmmm. Challenging. Cuz of her hooded eyes. :/
Tingting drew on me. Black and white bridal photography. Ironically, I am not posting any black and white shots. Hmmm.
Fashion makeup. Smokey eyes. We drew on ourselves. So I drew my eyes by myself. Not bad eh! :)
1930s fashion makeup. URGH. Forgot to take a snap of my super super thin eyebrow.
1940s fashion makeup. Bold red lips, lined eyes, subtle blush. Love it.
Take a look at this. Got a feel of professionalism? Hehe.
Me and my current hanging out mates! Before we all have to switch partners again!
Ta-ta.
Was so close to losing myself. Felt different as I was years ago. And I missed the years-ago me. :/ Focus focus focus. Priorities. Plan and manage. Hais. One step at a time, to find back that me.
Wish myself success and good luck. :)
♥ Merry Xmas and a belated happy boxing day.

It's Fuck-My-Throat Week. ♥
Seriously. Fuck my throat. This is the worst sore throat of my entire 22 years living in this world. My voice was slowly failing on Friday. Then, I was officially stripped of my intonation on Saturday. And it wasn't okay on Sunday. In fact it got worse. Then came Monday, able to speak, but losing it in every sentence, and coughing as often as don't know what. AND ON TOP OF ALL THE INABILITY TO VERBALIZE, my throat is being an asshole. Hurts like hell. And still hurts like hell.
FML.
I had to postpone an interview cuz of this bad, distressing condition.
Never mind my sore throat for a while, at least I can still type. Wanna update myself about the superb KL getaway last month. ^^
It's Marriott again! ♥
With my lovely boy.Had a wonderful dinner at some restaurant called Gaucho Grill. Craving for steak was satisfied by stealing some bites off my boyfriend's plate. And then I had my all-time favorite, ribs, but it was the first time I had beef ribs. Naise... They have this self-service salad and soup bar.
Back to hotel... Got Christmas decorations already! Makes me happy looking at Christmas deco. Beats me.
Next day by the pool.
Lots of narcissism involved. C'mon, in a favorite dress plus a good-hair day, who could resist?
Went to Sunway and stayed in a mediocre hotel which doesn't deserve any photos taken. So I did not snap any. Haha. Okay, it isn't that bad. Even right now thinking about it. There's beds, lights, a small tv, mirror, bathroom with shower. But I can't stand dust and dirt. C'mon, those rooms are intended for visitors, people are expected to stay and sleep there. And you don't bother to clean up? If you have your own house and you have guests over, you also need to clean up luh. Let alone you are running a hotel business. What do you treat your guests as? Dogs ah? Gee...
Okay, went to the Sunway mall. Shopped happily!
Took pictures incessantly!
I came back with shopping bags and a happy girl. Hehe.
Well, and so, Christmas is this weekend.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year in advance. ♥
I'm off to coughing my brains out. Ta-ta.

Clubbing ♥
Sexy & I Know It! event at Helipad on the 19 Nov 2011.
Got high, angry, sad, bitter, happy, tearful, mad. Talk about a bottle full if emotions. Hahaha. I got to stop doing that man! :P Sorry, boyfriend. It's how alcohol do stuffs to people to do stuffs. You know, words and phrases like drunken stupor, under the influence of, inebriated, intoxicated, boozy, tipsy... And the more words and phrases relating to these condition, confused, disoriented, befuddle, daze, muddle, fluster.
Ya. Sorry. Just trying to make myself feel less awkward by saying too much stuff. HEH.

I had spent an hour and a half on my makeup, cuz I thought I had a lot of time then. I applied the things I've learnt in class and tried it on myself. And woah. The good base and foundation really made the makeup long-lasting and hmmm, not trying to boast, but honestly better looking too.
Well. Talk about effort what.
Karen, Lina and me.

I kissed a girl and I liked it, the taste of her cherry chapstick~
♫ ♫Okay, a small picture of a hot picture. Haha.I don't even remember her name!But there was tongue involved. Har, take that.

I do not enjoy clubbing and nightlife that much anymore. I swear!
I rather have lazy afternoons at the mall, or aimless window-shopping down Orchard Road, and a casual coffee at Starbucks.
And then sleep early at 12am (latest) at night, wake up at 8am in the morning, have a hearty breakfast, go for a jog, read a book, watch tv... Then some occasional late nights...
Sigh.I can actually achieve that. Haha. If I can have a proper room.
Well. Not going to dwell. I'm sick and I am so going to sleep now.

It's December Already. ♥
Damn. Seriously? My last entry was 1 month ago? November passed in a flash can! Geez! Now it's hello December. Hello.
Hmmm. Run-through...
In the last week of October, drove up to KL and had a luxurious stay at Marriott.
Kinda growing to love roadtrips. The longer the better. Hahahaha.
Reached our beloved hotel.
Yea, fell sick. WTH right.
Made the best out of it. Went for a soak in the pool nevertheless.
Wonderful use of the spa facilities. ♥ Total bliss.
