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!

Topshop Student 20% off excitement!

So for all Topshop lovers out there, if you didn't know, Topshop had a special event catered specifically towards us poor students! xP
20% off on all their stock between 6-10pm on specific days depending where you are in the UK. Although it started 2 weeks ago, there are still a few places doing it this week! Soo.. if you're interested, check out their facebook event!

So in Leeds, the event happened last week for 2 days. I went with my friend to check it out on wednesday. We got there at about 5.45pm and the queue was already like a mile long already! o_O; But luckily... as soon as they opened their doors, it moved pretty quickly. But as you imagine, with a queue that long... the place was pretty crowded!

I managed to find 2 pieces of clothing that I quite liked.. but the queue to the changing rooms was maahoosive, so they had to direct half of the line towards the Topman changing rooms which wasn't so bad of a wait after all!

So enough talk.. here's what I managed to get.

An oversized knitted shawl cardigan 

Drape pocket Hareem trousers 

The two combined was £78 but with the 20% off, it came to £62.40.. T_T My bank account is running dry far too quickly nowadays! But since I spent over £50, they gave me a free fabric Topshop bag with a few goodies such as a mirror, sweets and some face cream. =))

I've never actually bought any trousers from Topshop before, and the idea of hareem style never really appealed, but for some reason, I really liked the ones I bought! 

But yeah.. I can't afford to spend anymore now. I need to start living like a hermit again! xP 

I'M IN UNI BABBBYY!

Again... LONG NO SEE for the Nth time!

I'm now well and alive in universityy! =)) I moved in about 3 weeks ago, but it feels like I've been here for MONTHS!! In short, my experience here has been nothing but amazing! I have the nicest flatmates and I've met the greatest of all people hence the lack of time I have updating this blog! >_<

My perception of university has always been party party party.. and yes, it really is.. LOL! Work is starting to pile up.. if you don't know, I'm doing Economics and Geography with Japanese as one of my electives. Sooo, you can imagine the workload I'm getting atm! AHHH!

oh wells.. as they all say.. work hard, play harder! hahah xP

and just a few pictures...

Late Update!

my room is in the midst of cleaning.. xP

You know you've been slacking when you always feel like starting each entry with the words.. "long time no see". Ah mann, sorry. I haven't had time lately to blog and I've sorta been losing inspiration!
Someone inspire mee! =)) -- maybe another ulzzang post soon? Since most of my visitors only visit my ulzzang posts. >_<;;

I know I promised to update my Hong Kong trip.. (which feels like it happened a lifetime ago!!), but something went wrong with the photos.. and I'm having major difficulties with uploading, so.. maybe another time, when people are still interested. haha!

So just to update a few things since I last posted..  I GOT INTO UNIVERSITY! and I can't wait to move in on the 15th!! =)) I spent countless nights worrying about results, I'm just so glad its all over now! It's time to start the next chapter of my life!

Other than great news however.. comes the sad news.

My "Sister" also known as Jessica Yeung left a couple of weeks ago to China for her year abroad. T_T Yep.. A WHOLE YEAR. oh mann. I'm going to miss her so much! I regret not taking enough pictures and spending enough time with her. But I'm glad she spent her last few days in UK with her BEZZIES (lol!) Annie, Mel and I. =))

To Jess;

I hope you read this... ! =)) Its truly sad to know that I won't be able to see your face again.. till next year! T_T But I'm sure it will pass incredibly quickly, and you'll be back in UK before you know it! 

I wish you all the very best and keep me up-to-date with your daily adventuress! =)) and obviously continue our amazing game of 'Word Association' with Annie just to wind her up! pahhaha! 

Love youu 

xxxxxxx

Just to end this post.. I'm going to link you to 2NE1's teaser to their song 'It Hurts' -- I can't fricken wait till their album drops!! =))

Random Banter: Facebook Stalking

I'm backk! Back from sunny and humid Hong Kong to rainy depressing England! I've actually got many entries of my holiday to post, but since its taking forever to upload photos they'll be sitting in drafts for now. =))

But today is just going to be some random banter from me...

Recently, I met up with a distant friend whom I rarely keep in contact with. It was really good seeing her again since I haven't spoken to her in such a long time! Obviously during one of these catch-up sessions, you would expect to have a lot to talk about ie. whats been going on in your life since you last saw her, what you're doing next etc. But what I didn't expect was the fact she knew most of the things I did anyway even without having kept in contact! 

How? 

Through Facebook stalking. -- An unhealthy act which facebook users inevitably do once in a while.. (or regularly..xP) 

C'mon.. who's NOT done it? 

I confess I've done it countless of times.. a bit of stalking doesn't hurt (unless you're going to the extent of pedophilia.. =S). But what really worried me was that after every tidbit I told her, she would go somewhere along the lines of.. 

"ah, yea.. I knew it was that.." and I'd be like 

"Erm.. really? how?" and she'd say

"Oh, facebook's my source ;)"

So from that, I got the idea that I'm either being WAYY to open on facebook, OR.. she's a REALLY good facebook stalker. 

Personally I'm not sure whether its a good thing to claim you're a facebook stalker to the person you're talking to.. especially when you're catching-up and all. It would just run the conversation a bit dry don't you think? But thankfully, I do know her and she's an incredibly sweet person =)) otherwise, I'd be a bit freaked out if I was talking to a random-er and they'd be like "Oh I Know what you've been up to ;)". But the conversation overall turned out well since I didn't know a lot about what she was doing. =)) 

But yes.. that was all I wanted to share really.. the knock-on effect of facebook stalking onto your 'external' social life. Obviously its going to be different depending on the person you talk to and how much stalking that person does but I'd actually like to give my friend props for owning up to facebook stalking! Because I'd never have the guts! hahaha! =))

Feel free to share any of your facebook stalking experiences! xP 

Peace! <3
