Christmas

So I've just been reading what I wrote last year about Christmas on my blog.. and depressing enough, this Christmas has just been the same as ANY other day that I've experienced.

Last year.. I wrote about how I had no Christmas tree, wrote not Christmas cards, bought no presents.. pahh, nothing has changed this year except the fact that it has gotten worse... we didn't even have TURKEY for christ sakes.
You're probably thinking oh, maybe you just don't celebrate/believe in christmas. HMM, we DID celebrate it, just not anymore..

If it snowed, it probably would have made it remotely better. But it didn't.

Another reason to add to my list as to why Christmas is not my thing anymore..

I bloody hit a deer when I was driving. 

I don't think I managed to kill it, because when I drove back.. its body wasn't there, and there wasn't any blood. However, just to top things off, it created a massive scratch at the front of my bumper. GREAT. Now I just need to fork out about £200 to get it replaced! T_T

To be honest, I really hope next year is going to be better. SERIOUSLY BETTER. I'm going to re-read this again in the future and think omg... I'm such a "HUT JAI" >_<;;

All that aside.. I wish everyone else had a better Christmas than me! =))

Song Cover - Navi's 길에서

I feel so embarrassed posting this... but I thought I'd give this a shot. This is my first attempt in singing Navi's 길에서. which is an old favourite ballad of mine. =))
Obviously, its not as great as the original version.. but I welcome constructive criticism!-- and OH, excuse my Korean pronunciation!




and its my birthdayy tomorrow!! Last post as an 18 year old! eek! I hope it will stop snowing so I can go out!! >_<;;

Meet Hatsune Miku

Not something I would usually post about.. but ever since one of my friends posted a link of Hatsune Miku on facebook, I've been forever fascinated!

Unsurprisingly a Japanese innovation, Hatsune Miku, a supposed 18 year old, is the first virtual Vocaloid singing sensation developed in Japan, and thats not even where my fascination begins! She has played at sold-out concerts with fans of more than 25,000 as a 3D hologram! Its craaazy in the sense that people (mainly little girl/anime-obessed guys) would become so obsessed over an animation! If you don't believe me, check the following clips out!





Maybe her songs aren't my cup of tea, but I'm just totally engrossed in the fact that such technology exists in producing one of these amazing virtual singers! Talk about manufactured popstars!!
The Japanese music industry has now reached to a whole new level! LOL

I spent my last weekend with 3 of my international friends in London. One Canadian, American and Australian. Took them to all the touristy places we could go in 2 days and 3 nights! To be honest.. I felt like I failed as a tour guide! We managed to get lost twice.. and on the Sunday, I woke up 2 hours later than I was supposed to!! Oh wells, I think they survived alright without me! xP

It was nice being back down in the south again.. as much as I'm enjoying being in Leeds, its just not the same in the north! Although being back in London meant I could go home.. I didn't manage to do that. I felt kinda bad not seeing my family when I was so close to home. However, I did manage to meet up with my mother and 3 of my cousins! =)) 

Only 2 weeks left of uni and then I'm homebound!! 

On the London Eye overlooking Parliament and the Big Ben -- although not the nicest of all weather!

Clubbing in London with my Canadian friend.. hence why I got up so late on the sunday! 

The 3 tourists lol 

Hardcore protesters camping outside parliament

I didn't manage to take many photos to be honest.. didn't feel the need to since I'm most likely to see all this stuff again within a month or so! xP I was too busy taking photos of my friends for them! xP But overall, I had a good time! =)) 

I was expecting to buy a lot in London.. but I only managed to get a pair of nice warm shoes from Topshop. 

MILEY Fur Buckle Boots - £36

I've been on a long hunt for shoes like these.. ! Every winter.. I survive with wearing pumps and converses because I just don't see the appeal in UGGS. Thats why as soon as I saw these, I had to get them! Now my feet are finally warm! eeeee =)) 

Shopping continued back in Leeds...

LUCCA Silky Floral Zip Playsuit - £55

I actually tried this on when I was in London.. but I didn't feel like I needed to buy it. However, as soon as I got to Leeds, I regretted my decision and decided to purchase it at Urban Outfitters! Oh my bank account!! 

My temptation does not stop there unfortunately... ASOS sent an email round offering next day delivery on all orders placed before 5pm on Thursday. Sooo... had a quick browse and bought a dress. *sighs* 

MOTEL Lace Insert Dress - £25 

It looks provocative.. but it's actually not too bad! Overall.. happy buy! =)) Plus I needed something for my birthday anyway! 

Annie is my name, fannys are my game.

"Me: So what happens if there is a war between China and the Philippines? 

Her: I'll just fight for China, because I'm only quarter Filipino"

BIEL BIEL, BIELARUS, BEL, annieballs (personal fav), biglips -- whatever you want to call her.
Meet my partner in crime... ANNABEL CHUNG (..and declared in an "open relationship" on facebook.. =S)

No. She hasn't convinced me to become a lesbo. She's just a freak of nature who gets an orgasm every time she sees a picture of Angelina Jolie just because they both share the same feature of having big ass lips. LOL
Whats the point of this post you ask? Well, annieballs over here insisted that I should dedicate a special post to her because I never write a long wall comment on her facebook. I HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY ANNABEL FOR INTERRUPTING MY ESSAY WRITING!

and just for the amusement...

Here is annie's amazing 3D glasses dance on skype.
LOVE LOVE LOVE. =))

meow?

I have to admit.. dressing up really isn't my kinda thing. I'm a bit of a lazy sod (who's also pretty poor atm!), so when it comes to costume hunting.. I'm not the type of gal you'd want to go with as I'm not particularly creative in that department!

So, as you'd have thought.. finding something to wear for a halloween party was like getting blood out of a stone for me especially with my extremely low budget!! Originally.. I thought I'd go as a ninja (inspired by one of Michelle Phan's ninja video last year) because.. tbh, its just sticking a t-shirt over your head and BAM you're a ninja! EASY! Well.. I thought about it again, and decided I'll probably get too hot, and die of suffocation and importantly, how else am i going to drink? Pull it down every time? nahh i think not!

My other alternative was a 'flower woman'? lol. Nono, not the hippie type, but more of a makeup kinda idea inspired by this Japanese makeup guru on youtube whos an absolute genius. Check her out below.

So I went out to buy a flower corsage from Primark specifically for it.. It was actually a major fail on my part.. it didnt look that great tbh. Another dilemma I had was that I didnt have anything to wear with it.. hmm 

Therefore, my last resort was to go as a cat. £2.50 spent on cat ears and a collar that had a bell! (unfortunately, my bell was ripped off, and i lost my cat ears in the club) Annnd here was my final look... lol 

haha looking wilddd? lol 

I actually had a pair of green circle lens on.. perfect for the occasion! 

just general goofing around.. 

Happy Halloweeen everybody! =)) 

There ain't no party like an S CLUB partayy!

Last week was such a hectic week for me! I went out on Monday for a pub quiz (didn't win unfortunately.. lol) and on Tuesday, I went to see....... S CLUB 3 -- yep, you read it right!! lol

Diminished to only 3 members, Jo, Bradley, and Paul, I have to admit, it was a pretty good night! It revived many of my childhood memories. I remember so vividly when me and my little friends used to imitate them and have mini concerts outside on the playground during lunch time in year 4! I was always chosen to be Tina.. just because I had dark hair! .. oh good times!

Obviously a REACH moment there! xD 

Jo (my ex-favourite member.. before her racist media explosion)

Paul -- who has gotten FAT! 

annd Bradley.. who hasn't changed at all! 

Me and my flatmate Emily <3 

Definitely one of my best moments in Uni so farr! =)) Halloween party tomorrow.. I've decided to go as a cat, but I'll leave that for another post!
