Some beauty shoppings & randomness!

This is a little random update of my life, just for the heck of it. Went beauty necessity shopping today after church and here's what I found.


Okay , nothing really exciting and what's with those mini Tiger Balms?!

PMS jokes are not funny. Period !

I hate the end of a month. Not because I'm down to my last few penny but because I'm given the monthly reminder of my birth burden. Other than the nausea, headache, giddiness and lethargic-ness. The thing I abhor the most is the emotional roller coaster. Oh, I think they call it PMS -_-

Samsung Note3 doodle + marathon weekend

Can't believe how affected I am by the recent bad news in my life. So so heartbroken , sigh. The disappointment of multiple people rolled into one heart is proving too much for me. Which makes me start to face palm at how weak I am, alamak! Poke me with a fork and I'll probably die Lol!

 

 

Anyway life as been busy and mweh as usual. I mean life is good! But I've just been feeling a little low :/

I've been on a doodling craze recently.  it all started last month (or early this month) when I sort of maxed out my data plan. Android tends to do a lot of things in the background that sucks up the data usage! So yeah I maxed out and had to abstinent from surfing or doing any sort of SNS on boring train rides. So I started doodling with my Samsung note3 stylus.

It turned out to be so therapeutic and de-stressing!

The stylus control on note3 is amazing and drawing on it despite the size and all is pretty comfortable.

I wonder if anyone can recognise the characters above XD

I'm going to cosplay a classic Chinese movie with Yuanie and Seiyume soon so the characters in the movie naturally became my doodle subject ahhaha.

Captain Levi! (or is he a Corporal?)

 

On a totally different note, I have to say how annoyed I am with myself. Whenever I have no time to blog , my head would be full of things to say. But when I sit down and get to it (actually I'm standing on a train now) , my mind goes blank =_=;

 

Bachelorette party and staycation with the girls yesterday! We had a lot of fun playing the games  and watching movies~ (Rise of the Guardians and Captain America 8D !)

 

It's been a long and fun but tiring weekend hahaha. Its like a triathlon and I'm finally at the last lap of the race ahaha!!  Racing home to get ready for a wedding dinner (last stop!) now lol.

 

Photo: Managed to shower, wash hair, curl hair,  change and makeup within 1.5hr! So proud of myself 8D ! Shall not bother self with little flaws in hair & makeup , I'm not the highlight of the wedding anyway heheheee :3

I am so mighty proud of myself. I managed to shower, wash hair, curl hair, change and do my makeup within 1.5hr! In the past just makeup alone would have taken me 45minutes minimal! Kaika haz levelled up!  Shall not bother self with little flaws in hair & makeup , I'm not the highlight of the wedding anyway heheheee. And I love the photo editing app called Meitu XiuXiu, it’s capable of making anyone look pretty =3=b

 

Ok. End bimbo post. Goodnights!

New header!

Cvy invited me to join her for a casual shoot a few weeks back with Nik. It was a sweltering afternoon but we managed to have fun. I still find it so weird to shoot casual. Arhhhh I don’t know. People are probably gonna think I’m just phishing for compliments or something but I don’t know, I just find it awkward being in front of the camera. That’s why even though i’ve been cosplaying for 13 years and I’ve only had 2 casual shoots ahhaa. I am just not Model material x-x

My best shots were taken with the tree. I love trees and nature haha. If Singapore wasn’t as hot I’d probably be out in the Parks a lot more.

I think I shocked Nik and Cvy a little when I started climbing the tree and doing all sorts of nonsense haha.

Day 98 (report from Dayre)

Still feeling the excitement of last Sunday's (This post is a repost from my Dayre account. It is a few weeks late LOL ) photoshoot. 8D

10168193_657282480975745_518951486_n

I cosplayed as Lyfa from Sword Art Online along with Kirito; cosplayed by Yuanie! Its so fun to cosplay with friends who share the same fandom, experiences and mind-set. I've really had enough with cosplayers who take my time for granted or are too busy for me.

 

I mean no offence to anyone specific. But I'm a very serious kind of person, in cosplay and out of cosplay. Sometimes too serious for my own good =_= ;; But yeah , I just find working with someone that doesn't look at our cosplay team/pairing as seriously as I do very suffocating and humbling. It makes me feel stupid to be pouring my heart out for something the other party are doing half heartedly. Which is why i only work with people I trust.

 

Its just my overall rant about life, not pertaining only to cosplay. Even though lately I've started to feel that some cosplayers really tend to take things for granted or forget what they promised. Same goes for photographers lol. Or maybe that's just human's nature or slyness and forgetfulness and has nothing to do with cosplay or not.


That said though, I also constantly remind myself not to slip and become those I don't like. Nothing more hypocritical than enforcing an ideal on everyone else but oneself.

 

I'm not talking about anyone specifically but the more I continue in this hobby, the more I feel the need to be discerning about the people I work with. I treat everyone I work (cosplayer or photographer) with as my friend. I may not be the teeny bouncy super attached kind of friend but I really care and respect. However there are times where I feel my definition of " friend" might be sorely different from some others and I find myself tattered and scarred and disappointed at the end.

 

Don't get me wrong. I'm not trying to draw the picture of a victim here. It takes 2 hands to clap and I often reflect on my own actions and wonder aloud to myself too. But you know what's the best thing about growing up? Its how you grow numb towards hurt and how you learn to take a step back to revaluate the situation objectively instead of shouldering all the hurt and shame.

 

These days I can handle undesirable situations a lot better and I understand what they always say about not worrying for tomorrow as tomorrow can worry for itself. No one has full control over everything. Take life one step at a time and rely on God.

Not sure why i suddenly talked about this. Maybe the frustration and opinions have been accumulating and I decided it should have a conclusive ending. As such, I've decided to be nicer to myself and do things I like instead of trying to swing to someone else's beat.

Shopping Loots! Monoke Hime & Girly stuffs!

I think my life is so horrendously boring -__-;; I can’t even remember when was the last time I hung out with friends on a weekend. This blog entry will be highly incoherent and full of random photos.

 

On a totally different note, I am currently blogging while watching for the Nth time “Mononoke Hime”. In case you don’t know, Mononoke Hime is a 1997 animated movie by Studio Ghibli. I never had the chance to watch the movie when it first came out, I’ve only watched it like last year. But I’m so in love with the whole production*_*

And I really liked the main lead; Ashitaka. The last prince of his tribe who was forced to leave his village after he killed a monster boar and was cursed. Ashitaka is an old fashioned sort of anime guy. Very masculine/boyish looking , full of righteousness , chivalry and very gentle to everyone. I like guys like that ^////^;;; Unfortunately they only exist in the fictitious world u_u;

If my life was a novel, it would be a comedy

koma_double_hit

 

Happened a few nights ago when I was fumbling with the power sockets under the table. I cannot even remember what I was doing. I only remember crammed under the table and moving inwards clumsily. And when I moved my first step, my kneecap hit me in the face. The shock of the hit then made me jerk my head backwards and then I hit myself on the underside of my table =_= Was so loud my mom asked about it.

 

And my wardrobe finally gave way -_- The rod to hold the clothes gave way one morning while I pulled it to climb up and see what’s on the top shelf. Yeahyeahyeah, I know that sounds so graceful but I always pull the rod and use it as a handle whenever I climb up. I don’t really climb over the wardrobe though, I merely step on this area at the bottom to get some height . The rod is not locked down so you just need to pull upwards to release it. And released it I did, see the photo above? The entire pile just came toppling down onto the floor -___- ;;

 

Had to rehang all the clothes and accessories again -___-;

 

 

However I think the rod is too fragile and well, they gave way again. ZZZZ___zzzzz

 

 

Dad and bro finally stepped in and helped me step up a new wardrobe rod Open-mouthed smile I love my family =)

 

 

Went to a friend's place to BaiNian last sunday and there was a piece of land that says it is state land. But apparently they still employ wild dogs to guards the place. Because there were 3 relatively big dogs (45inch long maybe?) guarding it. I was trying to find my way around and crossed over to their side of the land without noticing them. All 3 of them dashed to me like I was enemy and started barking. At that point I was so thankful that my years of “animal loving on the internet” taught me a few things about dog. I knew they would go even more berserk if I ran and I know animals usually don’t like it when you have eye contact with them. They were probably 1 meter away from me but I was so calm and collected I could be called queen lol

Shopping loots & random WIP

Been so mentally held up with work and stuffs that I just can't find the time nor mood to blog. Anyway I met Vivian for dinner yesterday ! 


Haha she is very crazy as usual. Love her company ! 

Bought Bio-essence eye serums. They were having a Christmas promotion and this bundle pack cost me only $39.90! It usually cost near $60+ for two. So this is a steal xD 


I already have a bottle of their lifting serum but its running out so I guess I should stock up now xD I'll do a review soon ! 


My neon green translucent tights from eBay are here! I'm intending to make fairy wings out of them, lets hope that works T. T



Also , my latest batch of Taobao costume have arrived! It will be a long while before we can actually shoot this costume because the 3dmg will take forever to make sigh. 😩 But yeah, these days I've really taken to buying costumes instead of making. I have no more time and my time is getting increasingly more expensive. So now, I exchange cash for effort ( buying costumes). 

Maybe I should do a makeup tutorial first! 


This is the blade of a sword I'm working on. It's for a new costume too but propping takes forever for a noob like me :(



Here's an old WIP of another prop I'm working on. It's for Lee Syaoran from CCS! I've coated the handle with a few layers of modge podge and have since this photo, sprayed them gold. I think tonight I shall assemble everything together. I think I need to double up my pace !!!! 


Oh I bought ZA's pressed powder again. My annual Christmas pilgrimage is their Christmas bundle of a special edition foundation case and 2 pressed powder and a little pouch. I don't like the mustard yellow pouch but I like the green tint on my foundation case xD 

Also bought a lovely concealer and blush from Daiso


Isn't the packaging pretty ><?! I wish I could yank out the product and put my own stuffs in. This concealer is pretty goods shall review soon! 


And then the pink blusher from Daiso too. It's actually pretty good and natural looking. 


I think this is the blusher from this set. Well either that or it's from the 'peach' blush range. 


I now have all the blushes from the princess range -_-;;; I wasn't intending to buy this many ><|||


But I forgot I had to attend Macau Government Tourist Office's thank you party the other night and had to rush to buy makeup to put my face on =_=||||  

Anyway, I'll end my rambles here. Talk more next time !
