NP SET brush hour travel set

2010-11-08T17:12:00.000-08:00

Purchased this at Target for $39

NP set delivered new product to add to their large collection for Designer for Target. It included more palettes, lipglosses, faux lashes, body lotions and bag. none to which appeal to me, except for BRUSHES.

They have this mini travel set as well as 13 full size makeup brushes that range from $10 - $30. I think they're all made from synthetic hair.

This travel set contains 5 brushes: blush,eyeliner, eye smudging, eye shadow and concealer.

Blush brush is like a round topped kabuki brush. Extremely soft ( but all the kabuki brushes ive come across have been soft from BYS - Guerlain) i planned to used it for my MAC MSF 'By Candlelight' however it just picked up the frost and was just terrible. So i suggest just using this brush for regular blushes.

EyeLiner brush i actually use it for my eyebrows. its very firm which i like.

Eye shadow brush is like any other honestly, as well as the smudging brush.

i am happy with my purchase because it came with a cute little pouch and the brushes dont shed or smell funky, the quality of the brushes are of a high standard. however, i'd wait for a sale to buy these rather than buy it full price. Ive finally put my order through for the sigma brushes and its worth the money compared to these travel brushes as well as the full sized ones.

Daisy at 8 months

It most definitely has been the longest time since ive posted anything let alone anything makeup related. I picked up my bad habit of spending as ive returned back to work after being a fulltime mummy for around 7 months.

For 98% of the time i was looking after Daisy, i didnt wear any form of makeup nor did i groom my eyebrows, which gave it a chance to grow out to my desired shape. It also gave my skin a really long time to be free and just breathe.

Being off work and recieving no income meant i wasnt able to buy anything that i wanted .. only NEEDED. So now that i have the cha ching its all about spending wisely instead of pouring it down the drain like before.

But heres my makeup haul for the first time in almost 10 months!

NYX Beige, Australis Lambada and Rimmel Demure

L-R beige lambada demure

NYX Pinky.
Theres a stall in Stocklands wetherill park, opposite to FiFi's shoes & MINK that stock... a decent amount of NYX cosmetics. And its heaps cheap too. this blush was just $8 ( l/g $5) ! i was actually surprised at how pigmented it was. and she has ALOT of single eyeshadows even the palettes and the shadow base. i was in heaven!

Loreal eyeliner Silver black
Maybelline mascara Blackest Black

Went to cosmo cosmetic in Liverpool and saw HEAPS of Loreal intense liner and i was soo happy because i heard they discontinued it, came home only to realise it was the silver black not carbon black. * heartbreak* and they dont know when stock is coming either because i think it was a shipping mistake because they had 'CVS' labels last time i bought one.

The Maybelline mascara is ... not up to the hype. i only use it for my lower lashes because thats all its good for really.

I really hope to be a bit more consistent with this blog.

Missing girl Rista Chathavixay

2010-07-30T06:03:00.000-07:00

Rista Chathavixay
missing since March 24th

I personally dont know this young girl (16), but she resides no so far away and its so heartbreaking, she had a fall out with her dad, moved with her teen boyf & his family, they then break up and she disappears without a trace. She hasnt contacted any family or friends nor has she accessed her bank accounts.

I dont understand how there is so little information and pictures of her online. im surprised because we're so dependant on the internet. No profile pages of social networks. maybe she wasnt much of an internet person.

If it werent for the local newspaper for publishing this report again i wouldnt have even known about it. Curious i went online to check out anything about this girl. Just the same repeated short newspaper articles and one facebook page dedicated to find Rista and it currently has 288 members.

It really breaks my heart, because you dont think these things can happen but it has and ive never ever met her in my life - i cant even imagine what her family and friends are going through still.

So please join this facebook page, spread the word. If you have sighted this girl or have any information call the police, please.

Rista, if you're out there, just pop home let everyone know you're ok, im pretty sure thats what everyone just wants to simply know, just that you're ok

mummy update

2010-06-15T02:48:00.000-07:00

Shes 5 months now. Unbelievable.

It hasnt been easier i still struggle. She BARELY sleeps or feeds, shes always wanting to play. its so hard!!

i wish i had trained her from day 1. to have only fed her every 2 hours. to not pick her up the moment she makes a peep. i mean i started being strict with her when she was 3 months old. i guess you cant dwell on the past and just pave the path for tomorrow

Mummy Fail #1
during my first month of pregnancy i consumed alcohol every weekend lol

Mummy Fail #2
i dropped my baby!! Exactly when she was 20 weeks. i fell asleep with her on me - woke up moved my arm and this thing rolled off my arm on hit the timber floor! then WAHHH WAHHH WAAH! poor thing faceplanted .pick her up MIL comforted her then Daisy sucked her thumb. lol i fed her then she woke up and played we me.

GP says as long as she didnt vomit, bleed and cry non stop as well as landing head first i have nothing to worry about. and he laughed at me lol My boyf was like "How dare you" haha but he's cool now

Its still a long way until she sleeps a 5 hours in one go man i cant wait to rediscover sleeep & sleep beside my boyf again Its been 6 months.

My little girl is 2 months old today. A wholesome 5 kg baby with thick thighs.
This week she had her immunisation and checkup. Cried so much when she got pricked the weakling. Shes grown well and everything is fine.

She still predominately looks like my mum but her eyelid slipped so shes got MONO eyelids ( chinky eyes ( before : left eye = monolid, right eye = double lid ) just like babydaddy's mum. She's dark like babydaddy & she got myhair type & eye colour.

AMAZINGLY!! i lost 14kgs (30 pounds) in 8 weeks, only 6 kgs left til ill be back to my pre knocked up body weight. Cant wait til i get to go gym again, or i might just cancel it and work out at home and at the park..

7 march 2010 - 5 weeks

my boyfriend and my daughter - two greatest loves of my life, i cant imagine or believe i could love so whole heartedly. No matter how much you hurt me before, you managed to change your ways without my intervention. YOU changed for the better and i'll love you for everyday of my life. And my daughter; it doesnt matter how stinky your poo is - when you shit and pee on me, the hours you keep me up: ill love you . Everyday of mine and your life. i just pray to god and buddha that when you're an angry teenage girl, you wont turn around and say that you hate mum and dad. love you two with my whole entire heart.

Pram

2010-03-17T20:44:00.001-07:00

We were meant to shop for the pram on the Monday 25th Jan - but i went into labour so yeh.

My heart melted when i walked towards this the S.A cracked up laughing.

SOOOO CUTE! and stylish for my baby girl. rrp$700.
But it wasnt what i wanted in a pram, it was bulky, heavy, and wide.

Ive wanted a Strider since i found out i was pregnant. It's so modern and small and stylish. babydaddy wasnt to impressed with the height or the price though.

So i settled for the VeeBee Valco Navigator
Light weight, 3-wheeled, easy to use, not so wide and under $200.

The most expensive pram we saw cost $1800!!
It was HUGE - like the hummer of all prams.

7 weeks of being a mummy

2010-03-14T22:20:00.000-07:00

Daisy is seven weeks today which is crazily quick because im ALWAYS at home just taking care of her and myself and time stil flies. She does everything that is expected of her so im very glad that shes up to speed. She's still up every 3 hours for feed for about 2 hours and has a HUGE tantrum just before night time.
failed hair trim, mum in law was suppose to cut behind her ears - then went straight for the sideburns

Her one month party went off with a bang. So many people not enough food or plates. It was the first time my boyf and i planned a party and we were the worst! Running around like headless choooks, babydaddy was drunk halfway through, and Daisy got really frustrated coz she was tired. It was so hard to talk to guest and try to make them at home, good god.

As Parents: we honestly didnt buy much for her because we knew she would grow out of it or it would be useless. And money is tight when theres a mortgage to pay off. So blessed with gifts ( cot, clothes, etc). We only purchased, bathtub/changing table, pram, car seat, nappies - real basics

My boyf wasnt really involved during my pregnancy so naturally i panicked. For him it was the LONGEST waiting game, im so glad that when daisy arrived he was very hands on and playful with her. My sister in law said that he was very good at being a father like as if he had kids before. LOL I WOULDNT BE SURPRISED

Myself, im really enjoying it still, lol. It really was a bore being so heavily pregnant and only being able to be to stay between homes ( mine & bf) just in case she decided to pop. Now im at home ALL the time but i have a responsibility so im occupied at least.
she cracks me up everyday

Emotions of being a mummy: When my mum found out i was pregnant (4mths) she (naturally) went crazy. She was so angry she didnt even cry. She still not 100% still but she has slowly accepted it, and will accept it once i get married. Back then she said, now i can feel how any mother feels about her children. back then i said i can handle it and not to worry about me.

Its true, when i went to cut my hair ( took 3 hrs) i just worried about daisy. The first time daisy cried like crazy and i did everything i knew ( feed/diaper/cuddle/wash) and she still cried like crazy i just broke down and cried as well. no one was home - that moment hit me like a ton of bricks.

no one loves you like your own mum. no matter how rude i am, how much i disappoint, how much i hurt - she still loves me and helps when shes not working.

i miss my mum so much i miss home.
toadstool!
post patrum body: i gained just over 20kgs. got fucken done by stretch marks EVERYWHERE.
i hate the stretchmarks and i did use palmers & bio-oil thruout the pregnancy Oh well at least i have a healthy baby. i had a gut before and that gut is still here, waiting til daisy is 3 months then ill start working out. my diet is boring same thing w. rice and pork beef or fish and my mum in law always forgets to buy vegies but she remembers to go mounties everyday. Im breastfeeding still so i still have to watch what i eat.

i really want to eat 50% vegies 25% rice 25% meat/fish/chicken but its hard to go out and buy it w. no car. & a baby

this was w/in the first month, so glad i can shower!

Daisy:4 w.o & shopping list

2010-02-21T17:24:00.000-08:00

04feb2010

I cant believe that its been 4 weeks since she has arrived.

I def. took it one day at a time. She has breastfed the entire time and only wakes up once in the wee hours of the morning for two hours to feed. So ive been blessed in that sense *knock wood*

Honestly it hasnt been at all bad as they all make it seem - mostly because i didnt have to cook and prepare my meals. Even though it was the same food three times a day for 4 weeks straight. I still havent showered or wash my hair and my boyf say my hair smells REALLY bad. haha

Here's a list of products that have made life a little bit easier as a new mum.

Tommee Tippee 'closer to nature' Breast pump.
The teat is so much like the breast so my baby wasnt shocked by the change and this step is to slowly get her used to the bottle

Pop-up Container
So amazing! It just make the whole nappy changing part quicker and more efficient.

Huggies Newborn Nappies
BabyDaddy scored free nappies for one whole year which save a lot of $$ because this little monster uses about 108 in 2 weeks and one box is about $35 .

My mum in law think that im such a poshy bitch that wastes so much money uneccessarily - especially on nursing pads. idgaf - Nursing pads are a must! and 60 for $8.00 .. who cares!

These wipes ... so thick and large and gentle!

one of the few things thats good about being australian. this ointment

these cleansing wipes have been my showers for the last four weeks

i gained 20kgs during my whole pregnancy which is NOT ok. lol cant wait to lose the weight and the extra baggage (tyre) i had pre preggers.

Bardot's Scarlette Ankle Zip jeans $149.95

Bardot's Annika Jeans $169.95

Tony Bianco 'Don' $169.95 in Stone Lizard Nubuck & BlackLizard Nubuck

I usually HATE booties because of my calves but OMG these are TDF!

Tony Bianco 'Dodge' $ 169.95

Ive wanted Over The Knee boots since last winter, but it wasnt 'in' and it was very scarce and over priced. Now everyone is gunna be rocking in these boots in winter with leggings

Betts 'Josa' in Black Suede $119.99
( check out the price difference and the material used btwn betts and bianco)

Labour, Birth and Post Natal

2010-02-02T19:30:00.000-08:00

neverr brought it up because my mum didnt want many people to know because im not married so it was the least i could do for her.

well well well
January 20th - 23rd: Had mild stomach cramps during the wee hoursof the morning

January 24th:
Had a 'show' in the morning.
Pick up my niece and nephew and spent the day shopping with them and had a big 10 course birthday dinner for my niece. Through out the whole day i had more painful cramps that came every 45mins to 1 hour. but i could still continue to shop and eat lol

January 25th : 1 30am tried to go to sleep but rising stomach aches kept coming and going this went one every few minutes and lasted for 10's secs.

230am started recording when stomach aches started and finished. Could no longer lie on my back so went on all fours and rocked til stomach ache finish.

330am Back ache kicked in with every stomach acheso had to walk around in room

430am Mum in law woke up and asked me if my stomach aches were every half an hour. My reply - ' no every few minutes'
mum-' GO HAVE A SHOWER ! You're going to give birth sooon!'
me' You sure??'
mum: YES!!

Proceeded to shower and washed my hair.
Went back up stairs and cont. getting cramps. Woke babydaddy at 510am and we headed off to the hosp.

520am arrived to hosp.

530am arrived to delivery ward where i got hooked up and fingered and got told i was 5cm dilated! * yay half way there*

Just lied in that main room for a while

6am: Into the delivery suite. Got hooked up again and then the pain began~!

Shooting backpain - most painful stomach aches - pelvic bone aching.

I was the biggest brat this entire 3 hours. i want him to hold my hand, then i didnt, then i wanted a blanky, then i didnt, then i want to hug him, then i didnt!

Midwife:"Do you want Gas"
me: OF COURSE I WANT GAS

730am my body just want to push but i held it in coz i didnt want to tear, but the midwife just sed to go ahead with it.

Contractions didnt seem to be lasting longer or as close together, maybe i was so gased up but every contraction i push.

I pushed wrong for half an hour ish because i didnt want to poo lol.

8 something: INTENSE STOMACH ACHE - BACKPAIN - PELVIC BONE

midwife:" keep pushing - i can see hair"
me *mind*: dont care - in pain

midwife:" Do you want a mirror?"
babydaddy:' Nah its ok;
midwife pulls out the full body mirror and puts it right infront of my vag.

I was so gased up and soooo in pain. I didnt have the motivation to push long and hard. i didnt care. i didnt want to look in the mirror. i kept saying i couldnt do it. Kept asking them to vacuum her out.

There was only 2 things that kept me going.
1) When the midwife said her heartrate was dropping.
2) Me: " i dont want her anymore" and baby daddy gave my the scariest glare, i think he saw the fear in my eyes.

Then i pushed like i was chucking the biggest dump in my life. Everything BURNED!!! when i was pushing. It was so exhausting.

853am: My crying - grey - GIRL was born. They put her on me while everything else came out. It felt so revolting when i looked at everything else coming, it was like taking a tampon out and feeling disgusted with yourself. I had a TEENY tear that wasnt worth stitches so YAY

She started crying and breathing and became red like a tomato. Babydaddy for really emotional. He is NEVER emotional and the entire time he was saying he was really proud of me and our daughter. Putting up with my brattiness.

Soon family came, and every one was saying how my daughter looks soo much like my mum. Its funny because my mother and i look NOTHING alike.

Baby got checked and weight while my mother showered me. omg so much blood.
baby healthy and perfect. Just what i wanted.

Daisy Cao
D.O.B 25th January 2010
T.O.B 0853am
Weight: 2.960kg
Length: 49 cm

Post- Natal: I was soooooo sore.
It feels like going for a hardcore gym session, then to work for 11 hrs with 1 break, then going to a rave. Without stretching.

It was so weird being a mum, doesnt seem real.
Husbands arent allowed to sleep over so the first night alone was hard. These was an asian midwife on duty that night and i asked her for help, and she said " Its your baby you do it yourself" like bitch hello, i just gave birth in the morning im fucken sore as hell, exhausted as fuck. It really had my tempers fired up but i just held it in and did it myself.

Every other midwife was wonderful, realy helpful, some were brutally honest but still provided me with a guideline. The asian ones didnt want to get off their ass and help. If you dont want to do your job properly - dont do it. I was really disappointed in that

i was in maternity ward for 3 days and 2 nights. i couldnt wait to go home. baby daddy came everyday to help out during visiting hours, my mum came everyday and showered me so i wouldnt get any infection.

Leaving the hosp, baby daddy was carrying all my bags and focused on bring the 4wd to when i got to the front door. mum in law took the baby and just walked right ahead - didnt even walk beside me so that was a big disappointment.

Im full Vietnamese, mum and mum in law are vietnamese as well sooooo i have to do that vietnamese thing.

No shower or washing hair
No fruit or soup or sour food or cold food
thitca kho" with heaps of pepper. rice and steam carrot.
Charcoal like crazy!

For one month

My baby girl - Daisy Cao

Day 4. i got the hang of breastfeeding. Daisy feeds longer .:. sleeps longer. Turns red when shes frustrated. Squeals like a girl. The greatest thing to happen to me and my boyfriend.

Will be back soon

Hello Kitty makeup bag from boyf. (toys'r'us)
MSF - By Candlelight
BYS "Kung Fu Blue" nailpolish. but i think its more a minty Green colour

Honestly, get the MSF, its worth paying for it. COZ Prestige Mineral baked blushes are similar but its the size of a 50c coin with a teeny dome and you're paying 22.50 for it. And the revlon ones, prices are only like $10-$15 cheaper than high end cosmetics so i dont bother.

Plus the MSF will last coz you only need a TEENY amount

Shiteous camera once again, but you can see the msf on my cheeks. Very light frosty pink with hints of gold. if you dont like it to frosty just 1 swipe of your hand over it will minimise the frost and you'll have a more pinky gold colour.

Honest to god: this was lazy face. i skipped the moisturising & primer - didnt set the foundation and look how shit my skin looks eEK! Lesson learnt.

barcelona eyes
QVS fake lashes
rimmel stay matte foundation
rimmels nude delight ls
msf by candlelight

My nails were from... friday evening. has not chipped coz i havent been doing house work.

I use BYS nailpolish cozz its cheap. When you do do house work it lasts like 4 days ( w/topcoat)

Youtubed how to do the leopard print nail art, left hand GREAT!, right hand ... looks like some had a seizure doin' it =/

They hit the spot.

2010-01-18T03:05:00.000-08:00

roundup of 2009 and welcoming of 2010

2010-01-03T04:35:00.000-08:00

This was the dress i wore for my brother in law's wedding. Finally after almost a decade they tied the knot. I didnt do much but was exhausted from the day. They completely had the traditional vietnamese wedding. This was the first wedding that i was involved in ( cleaning house thoroughly, preparing) and i have told my boyf that i only want a reception. It is just to much effort and time and energy!

Forever New Jacquline sparkly dress.

Freaking had to rush my face because i was so busy dyeing my mums hair, fake lashes and nails. Then back to my mum in law to redo her nails and then do the flower girl's make up. Bloody stressin` yo

My boyfriend couldnt go back to the car to get the camera because he too was running around like a headless chook...so some snaps of the end of the night with my shiteous n95 camera fone.

The flower boy broke his arm 2 weeks before the wedding! bloody kid.

Just the usual.
barcelona eyes
prestige bronzer
rimmels nude delight

the end of the night after a 10 course dinner full full full

First time i got to eat a wedding cake. It was so disappointing.... but it was free from the reception so what do u expect.

-------------

Ready for bed after being up for almost 18 hours. only got 2 decent fotos with my boyf for the entire day =(

hehe wakey wakey baby!

----------------------
My xmas gift from my mum and bro. i LOVE my ds. best $200 i ever spent, guitar hero from my boyf.

my boyf and i pretty much have it all. ps3 - xbox - wii - ds - psp.

And since i dont intend on re-wearing that dress i went and got an exchange :D
So my boyf cast that as my xmas pressie. eh, good enough for me =)

Huge coin purse handbag!, ive always wanted one because mischa sported one a few years back when she mattered.

bangles and stack rings (L)

Got a few more junk but theyre at my boyf house so yeh.

(not my pic: twas with boyfriend at home watching the fireworks coz we're spontaneous like that)
I loved 2009, it treated me and my family well, went through some rough patches but it all blew past.

My only hope for 2010 is and will always be that my family are in fantastic health and shape, a roof over our heads, food on the table everynight and a stable income to keep those 3 flowing.

I dont need anyone to stop gambling, stop smoking, stop drinking because no one does. and im very thankful of that. Hope everyone has a wonderful 2010 and love and live life only to the fullest if not more.

I wonder what this year brings for me . . .

2009-11-29T05:24:00.000-08:00

It's been a while. Havent done much makeupwise because i have my future brother in law's wedding on the 19th December and i want the clearest flawless skin possible! But that hasnt stopped me from purchasing items for the future.

Im still using bio-oil which has slightly even out my skin tone. Also using a prescribed cream called "Celestone" (which i used on my very occasional eczema breakout), on my face. my dry patches have almost disappeared.

and onto the purchases + things i use alot.

This is the latest foundation release from Rimmel.
Which i got for $6.20 ( because they hired some 13y.o to label the prices of the products and got it ALL wrong). but usually its $12.40 @priceline

This is the old packaging. My first foundation i ever bought.
Sheer to medium, or u can use alot and get great coverage. I dont set my foundation so i do get a bit oily. but i havent been turn off by this product because it doesnt look like a mask on me nor does it feel like one.

Finally picked up the other two duos from australis because they were 50% off so $6.oo @priceline

ROSY BRONZE: Matte bronze( i use for contour) and dark pink blush
SUNKISSED GLIMMER: shimmery no glittery bronze and light pink highlighter

You can barely see the pinks and thats how i like it (=
Must go easy with the sunkissed glimmer bronzer

Got meself the "nudest" shade of the new australis lipstick line.

Mambo: pinky nude. Makes me look dead
Nude delight: peach base nude.. makes me look pale

This is my favourite eye shadow colours
they just suit my yellow asian skin tone so well.

MODELISTA :
Flash eyes / On Location - Barcelona
@target for about $13 for a quad.

2:inner half lid
3:outer half lid
1:outereye socket
4:highlight and inner sockets

Whilst browsing at Target, i came across a new stand from Manicare.
its called Cosmetica. They have the basics of makeup brushes without being to expensive.

I picked up the Rounded Contour brush which is similar the MAC 219 brush (i dont own one but from pictures it must be a dupe) for $12.95
Difference being Mac is slightly skinnier and longer in terms of bristles. Well im definetely going to head back and get the 217 dupe.

Pros:

picks up products wells

applies product very smoothly
blends well

exceptionally good for $12.95

Cons:
Light weight .:. less control

I tried the egg whites and tissue mask. I LOVED how it was like i was paper mache-ing my face, peeling it off was so orgasmic! BUT it only half assed pull my blackheads halfway out =(

I havent tried these nose strips yet but review on yt have all been that its really worth the amount you're paying ($10.50 @priceline)

i have a love hate relationship with this. It does remove my make up thoroughly BUT dries me out hard. The best mu remover i've used was the lancome bi-facil but its sooooooo expensive, so yeh i just settled for this.

i had to sneak this in, my nephew ate everyones lemon at the dinner table.
My boyfriend got vouchers for not taking sick days from work for the whole of 08 so we went to a nice white people restuarant and ate 300$ worth of food. By white i mean the more than one utensil restuarant.

Its nice to eat out once in a while but i still love my chopsticks style food.

More shopping =) &tagged

Hello Kitty bag(fake). SOOO Big , great for my almost daily sleepover at my boyf. house
The Bed sheets and (left) cushion are authentic Sanrio.

blacktrack fluid line , greasepaintstick

MAC Style Black. I was looking forward to this collection however I only got the greasepaint stick though.

Honestly, GET the greasepaint stick. it is worth that entire $38!

I have oily eyelids after a few hours of application of anything. the MUA promised me the fluidline wont budge, but it does everytime. But the greasestick barely budges, keeps its purple tinge after hours. i will def. get a greasepaint stick when they come in plain black.

i wanted Young Punk but that sold out. Also the volcanic skin stuff but im already using neutrogena Skinclearing cleanser/mask which has Salicylic Acid + Natural Clay Mineral

Everytime i use this (once a week) im always shocked at how hot and minty it feels. I always feel clean because of the heat from this product. and its only about $15. So this is hot enough i dont think i can handle the "volcanic"ness from the MAC.

Cute charm bracelet from diva for $5.

Python clutch/handbag $20 from Forever New
clutch/handbag $2.00 from Vinnies.

MINKPINK off the shoulder top $20.

SES Dress $8

Rules: Tell your 10 facts about me and then tag 10 great blogs that i love to read:

1. Born and bred in Sydney Australia in Asian suburbs mainly dominated by Viets.

2. i have been in foster care for about 2 months of my life at about 11 years old when my mum was really ill.

3. im still working at my first job. Butchers salesgirl.

4. I've never had hairlength above my shoulders

5. The most expensive thing i own are my braces, $3500. lol still counts

6. im an absolute pansy, i cant stand up for myself. For example, if a friend borrows my purse for an occasion but still hasnt returned it in a month i wont say anything. and when she does return it - it's damaged in someway, i still wont say anything. lol its not a good quality.

7. I've always been reluctant to spend big on clothing because my mum used to sew for a living-making less than $5 a garment. It didnt and still doesnt justify to me why clothes were being sold a gazillion times more than the cost of production.

8. when i got into makeup, i was so over the top. concealer, foundation, eyeshadow, liner, falsies.
Now im taking a step back, and focusing on my skin care and just emphasising my eyes. Sleeping more hours has improved my overall skintone, less bags. Drinking more milk has made my whole body feel smoother, milia has reduced dramatically.

9. i loved sport during my highschool years, mainly because it was group activity and competitive. I just can't have fun on the crosstrainer, treadmill, bicycle at the gym.

10. i cant remember the last time i said i love you to my mum. its just weird to say it, so i think the things i do for her will show.

Im not going to tagg anyone, but here are my favourite 10 blogs.

My haul without guilt

2009-10-01T04:45:00.000-07:00

Its only spring here but its really is heating up. Sydney recently had a dust storm which EVERYONE had to update their fb status about haha i seriously thought it was the end of the days
. I refuse to wear bras and so these bikini bralettes are doing a fine job covering my tittays.

$15 down to $5 =D

Picked this up for vincent because he sleeps earlier than me and i HAVE to watch tv and be on online before bed and so this baby puts my baby straight to bed.

He's a rooster in the chinese zodiac thats why i got it for him - only realising later in the morning that it meant " COCK TEASE"
tehehe he so cute.

Blacktrack fluidline, lancome khol liner, angle brush ( purchased with set of 5 for $7), Heater curler (L) Rimmel mascara

My skin has been TERRIBLE, i got like patches of drought happening to my face. so i've stopped using foundation and creams on my face. Got back to using BIO-OIL. Hence just the eyes baby.

For something thats made in South Africa, you'd think it would be cheaper. but no. 200 ml for $33.90, ive been using it daily so hopefully some results soon.

----------------------

On another different note. My tv shows for the season =)

Loved this since day 1.
i LOVE glee, im so happy they're on for the entire season
Gossip Girl, surprising picks up well even thought i didnt watch S2. i cant wait for Duff action, she is such a good person.
two and a half men! Only started watching this a year ago. Love watching reruns and watch jake grow!
Desperate Housewives, loved this from day one as well.
I was bearing with The beautiful life, i would have still beared with it for an entire season but it got the axe after 2 episodes. Fail man.

And the hills, watching this 20 minute show of a bunch of dumbasses getting paid 40k- 100k per episode fml.

ahhh story of my life..

Gold digging at its best.

[exclaimer:I'm not a good cook - i burn things just reheating.]

Whipped these pancakes up on wednesday night with my little brother.
Can NEVER get them perfect! When i flip them over it - the mixture just oozes everywhere

It was real cheap to make as well.

Strawberries $3.50 a punnet
Whipped Cream $ 4.00
Pancake mix $3.15
Butter Milk $2.50

Went crazy with the cream coz we dont eat it often and it would go to waste.

Just a simple look for Steak on Thursday night. Because red meat is good for you =)

And then a saturday night sleep over.

He is such a freaking cutie pie of cuteness!!

my love story

2009-09-05T04:40:00.000-07:00

Met online.
Met up.
Dated for a long time before becoming official
hurt and heartache was unavoidable

mossimo bra does wonders ;) + my arms lol

its funny how when we used to see each other on the weekend we prettied ourselves up, now we just float on the boat and dont give a rats arse.

Sometimes i wonder what it would be like to have just stop being with him but i know i have it good now.

============

This is completely off topic.
I know the economy is still shiteous but seriously. I got a chocolate milk carton from woolies and then went to Michels patisseri and asked for a straw. Salesperson didnt give me the straw becuz i didnt buy anything from them. ITS A STRAW.

Fuck i feel bad because at work ive been giving away coola bags and marinade bottles and eggs like crazy!

P.s how nice is the grand angus from maccas ?? * rubs belly*

If she can't keep her legs closed when you're out of town, she don't deserve your love.

You shouldnt have fallen for her so hard when she was cheating on her boyfriend with you.

If they can cheat with you, dont be surprised when they cheat on you.

FOTD.

2009-08-27T04:25:00.000-07:00

[edit] Just so the handful anonymous comments can take a deep sigh of relief, im going to credit people lol even if they dont really care and think they dont deserve it.

Eyes : Japanese mag "EGG" May 09 issue page 99 ( dl from livejournal )
and Eki's tutorial (HERE) i follow her blogspot.
Lips: Just Rimmel's nude delight
Blush: Prestige bronzer used instead
Hair: Cassie ( not game enough to shave) and Annie Nguyen ,im her friend on facebook so i get to be one of the first to see her photos ^^.

One of the few rules has always been
1: if you have heavy eye makeup on, go easy on the lips vice versa.
2: Dont show too much skin, keep it legs OR chest / arms.

simple and drama free and exhale and live [/edit]

Its been a while

my forehead looks sooo big but its only a four finger forehead.

She is just the cutest of all pies

such a bitch though, the first time she met me she asked my boyfriend

" why is she still here?"

The Balmain studded crystal sandals.

The Siren version

Im am such a dude, i dont last very long in heels and hence why ive stop buying them. i However i like the platinum spike on the siren version.

So hello to the flats. RRP $129.95

Target and Big W have made their own version of the steve madden studded sandals so im not going to bother hunting for them.

Its getting warmer here in syd, and i sense harem pants ( supre got em for $15!), singlets, short shorts, maxi dresses, hippie headbands, sunnies and studded sandals

i was hooked on this song when i heard it on my friends mix tape. Which you can dl HERE. I've started being fascinated with djs since yr 9, for a moment i wanted to be a dj LOL. I put it aside because of the cost of buying material. I still do appreciate dj's when im at club, watching them do magic with their fingers.

It annoys the SHIT out of me when people say the dj is "shit" because she/he doesnt play good / their favourite song.

Also i've finally finished my exams and will now have more time to do updates and stuffers.
I've also been allowed to work a fair bit more than usual which meant more money for stocktake sales :D:D:D

Hello Kitty $20.oo :D
(jay jays)

Bench tee: $9
Nude Lucy tee: $9
(GLUE)

I picked up this Loreal GlamBronze in " Harmonie Blondes" It is THE BEST! i grabbed it for $2.00!! Its a bit darker in real life but heaps suits my skintone.

Found my NUDE lippie. Rimmel's "Nude Delight" most definetely is a delight for only $14.00!
On the right is MaxFactors "UV Fusion" i grabbed it for $1.00. It looks like a fug colour but its actually hot stuff when swatched

Mix the two together & i get this perfect shade of pink that suits me.

My daily face, very quick coz im lazy as shiet.

Bronzers

top row: MAC "bronze". Prestige Mineral Bronzer. Loreals Glam Bronze
bottom row: Australia Duo contour. Modelista bronzer. Modelista Bronzer in Face Book.

MAC: Hate it. The lighting in the department store makes everything look beautiful. Waste of $35.00 (Myers)

Prestige: love it. Swept gently for a nice little bit more than subtle shimmer. Dont go crazy with this otherwise you'll look like a disco ball. $30.00 ( Kmart)

Loreal GlamBronze: LOVES IT! minimal shimmers, suits me. BEST FREAKING $2.00 sucky sucky spent!

Australis duo: its suppose to be for contouring, but i just mix the two and use it as blush. Pretty good $10( Target,Kmart,BigW)

Modelista: SHIT, doesnt even show up

Modelista face book: Its really good if you know how to blend it in properly because this is surprisingly pigmented and comparable to Nars Laguna i rekon.

I am going to stop buying bronzers from now on.

Beautiful - Akon

2009-06-12T05:12:00.000-07:00

i apologize for the absence, recession hitting my ass and i havent spent money since those heels. Therefore i have NOTHING to post up as evidence to the damage. Pretty much half my pay goes to rent, which leaves me with 200 and i gotta cover food and savings and full price public transport. =(

I really miss the days when i was loaded. i made $400+ per week, $230 a fortnite from Govt. Half price public transport, life was GREAT. i hate being old!

Anyways, been trying to play around with makeup when im on my study breaks. Usually i just wack on eyeliner mascara, and blush when im out. But at home i love going all out! AHAH i remember a few weeks back, i got a PM from someone on Myspace, and they offered me to model for them and i had a look at their website and its was ... lingerie modeling [ which my body type ( getting to comfortable in her relationship) is not suitable] So i msged back and asked if i could do hair and makeup... never heard from him since.LOL

This would be so fun for fashion shows.

^ Thats Virgin Kiss on its own.

^^ Two fake eye lashes used.
pink, blue, plum, black e/s used

^Study Break!!

I cannot wait until the 24th June Finals are going to be over and done with!

2009-06-02T06:57:00.000-07:00

Today i went with mum to Cabramatta Library so she can borrow some books to occupy herself at the hospital because my clumsy little brother popped his knee out of place during the high jump jog and now he just had the operation to put his knee cap back in place at 9am today. ( He was there 3pm the afternoon yeasterday AND we do have private health insurance!)

On the way there when we stopped at the red light, i notice this older man (40's-50's) by himself, just standing at the pathway picking his nose. Alrite dress, clean shave, hair brushed. Didnt give much thought to him.

About five minutes later, mum found parking and we both walked to the library. i slowed down when i got at the entrance path of the library.

That same man was on his knees, with a thin carboard chip container scraping up the shredded carrots of the ground and eating it.

I proceeded because i didnt bring any cash on me ( Every time i see those homeless men at Cabramatta i alway go to the sweet cake shop and buy them a bun of something).

When we left the library, the ground was clean, he ate every single piece of the carrot.

I saw him again when i got to the car , there he was lighting up a cigarette and carrying a bag of small things i couldnt see.

Its fucking weird. How someone can afford to buy things and cigs, but scrap carrot of the ground that someone else dropped out of their porkroll.
i get junkie customers come in, wanting pork ribs and shit themselves over a $12 rack for their kids and dont end up buying it. Yet they can spend their last cent on drugs and cigs and alcohol.
My boyf. knows of MEN/ Fathers that have no problem gambling, shouting their friends' drinks and taxi rides but when they take their children out, they pack their kids sandwiches and fruit drinks so they dont have to buy the kid anything except for entrance fee.
Mothers that date guys and take recreational drugs on weekends, designer handbags when their children eat packet noodles on a daily basis and fend for themselves. Some even gave their own children to their GRANDparents fulltime so that SHE can live a happy life with their new boyfriend.
Fathers that refuse to take in their own daughter because his new wife doesnt want her living with her.

Some adults are so fucked - makes my blood boil.

Im just glad my mother doesnt date and my dad has completely stayed out of my life after the divorce. =)

It's not fair - Lily Allen

2009-05-23T05:58:00.000-07:00

This song has been on repeat for some time. Love the lyrics because i believe that sex should be fantastical.

I havent spent crazy dollars as of late, because im trying to save up for my car, holiday and finally wedding. Say what? Yeah wedding, i dont want him to have to pay for it entirely because its our wedding and im not a mail-order bride!

Today i went with my bro in law (to-be) and his fiancee and others to pick out her wedding dress.
I eyed one out because it was beautiful, i liked the style personally and then she tried it on and loved it. . .

It fit her so well! then there was a newer yet similar design to the 1st dress and ..

It was perfect, not to OTT, not to plain. Just gotta get it altered and i nearly cried!

And she got it! The 2nd dress she tried on and it was made for her! Lucky bride to be!

Im the bridesmaid and i am SO MUCH fussier than she is and it aint even my wedding =/
Well since thats her wedding dress which is like EXACTLY what i like. Im going to have change my wedding dress style.

I got my self some bitchen new (stripper) heels. i love love love them.

5 inches of pleasure and pain.

MAC's a ROSE Romance was release on Monday. As well as Double Dazzle

I picked up Virgin Kiss lipgloss for $35.
It is soooooooooo sticky and has 3d glitter pieces + shimmer. So after the gloss has worn out, you have silver shimmer on your lips. YUK. I also feel like, it runs out quickly. .

After this, im never getting another lipgloss from MAC, Revlon Lustrous lipgloss shits all over it. You can get 3 revs OR 1 mac.

And having said that, def. not getting any of the Double Dazzles lipglosses $42 !!!! no thanks - i might as well throw in another $20 and get a G-Star tee. Bloody NARS lipglosses are like $75 ( thats like a pair of Bardot jeans [ if u know where to shop ;) ] !) so many raves about it and such sexi names.

Loving these outfits.

And i have no more homework so now i can STUDY for my finals. Next week is just lectures and then 2 weeks to plan how to commit suicide, but dont hold traffic up

Sorry i cant believe in love the way you hoped me too.

2009-05-10T06:32:00.000-07:00

My mum is so special so strong.

She came to Australia with no family only friends.
She walked away with only the clothes on her back and her daughter ( my step sister) from a relationship where the man was only into gambling and girls. She walked away from that relationship when the wedding invitations were being printed!

She put up with so much bad mouthing from my dads side because she already had a child. (my dad already had a son as well- double standard thing)
She had me and my little brother with this man, and he left for a young Vietnamese girl when my bro was 2.
She got 30k from the divorce settlement which she has managed to survive on for 8 years. While getting single parent pay and sewing for a few bucks per garment which end up being retailed for hundreds of dollars.

Its only been recently that shes opened up to me about her past because she doesnt want me to repeat her mistakes. With me sleeping over my boyfriend and spending SO MUCH time with him. Shes so scared ill get pregnant without a marriage or even worse become a single mum.

Ive taken it upon myself to pay the rent and go halves on the bills. i'd rather be there financially because i hate getting all emotional. That my brothers job.

I love you mummy.
-Hope you're proud of me.
-Because im looking after you ever since i left highschool whilst still studying.
-Sorry for the pain caused by everyone.
-Sorry your oldest isnt looking after you like you hoped.
-Sorry i cant believe in love the way you hoped me too.
-Hope you're happy and content for now more will come along the way.

You Belong To Me - Taylor Swift

2009-05-09T04:13:00.000-07:00

Taylor swift is just the most adorablest person. A supa nice girl with a endless talent. Some may say she's boring, but i think shes a wonderful role model for kids and shes only 3 months younger than me. Absolute Doll!

^ Photo was taken (after i put my face on to see my boyfriend) after a MAJOR DRUNK ASS friday night at a work friends house with the work gang there. We ate, drank and played jumprope with the jacuzzi and the ice cold swimming pool. Broke too many wine glasses and drank a wee bit to much tequilla.haha i dont even know how i managed to get from my bikini to my underwear ( the right way as well) skinny leg jeans then from my jeans to my trackies. Skilled Drunk =D

Wear my boyfriends heart around my neck Dark and precious.

. Im surprised my lipgloss shows up. Its only revlon and my lips are quite dark.

Say YES to sex hair without the sex.

The MAC Bronzer isnt as pigmented as i first tried it on. Even the Modelista Bronzer is more pigmented and thats like only $8!

Im using the top brush with the white topping called airbrush/ stippling brush by QVS ( $17). Its for foundation but i use it for blush. Dupe of MAC 187

Pro:
- High quality hair extremely soft
- cheap
- versatile. blush / mineral foundation brush
- Does not shed

Cons:
- Light weight, therefore less control
- FAILS with liquid foundation (cakey cakey cakey YUK)
- Only one size

i freaking love photobucket.

Its getting so cold in Sydney.

Cold means i get lazy, no shaving unless im going out

I dont get all much out of clothes either, usually jeans and jumper ++. I actually look like a fat ball of turd in the amount of layers i wear to keep warm, i dont know how those other girls wear stockings with mini skirts and summer dresses, a light cardigan and scarf. ARENT YOU FREAKING COLD???? i know you dont have super powers to stay heated!!

I really should be studying for final exams, but then i get distracted.

When im at uni im on facebook playing sketch, watching tv shows HERE.

im so going to fail fail fail!

-----------------------------------------

TOday was the first time my boyfriend let me ride with him on his motorbike. It was so scary going 0-90 km/hr on the Cumberland Highway. I feel most comfortable going 60 km/h which is granny speed to him haha.

It may seem like nothing but to me it is a very significant step to our relationship, He's only let like a few very special girlfriends on his bike and now im one of them, and hopefully the last. He loves his bike more than me, i know that and i've accepted it. Im not going to try to make me his number one priority like i did with my ex.

Which leads me to an interesting taxi ride home from my friends 19th. The taxi ride consist of myself, terence Josh and my ex. I think that was the first time we talked properly since he broke up with me which was about 3 years ago. Just to break it down and my lesson learnt. Even if i didnt know the truth, its really bugged him keeping things away from me. No wonder he was so aggro which could have subsequently turned me into a mega bitch. Like i said " Honestly, i dont remember how the relationship was" its true, it probably does mean nothing to me.

I dont want to make the same mistakes with my current boyfriend, i think thats why im so submissive and that i dont really expect much from him. I just want him to be there with me, not to work too much that he's tired when he gets home. I dont want us to be rich, have a massive house and have no affection and love between us. If we're poor, eating rice with eggs everyday, counting every silver coin we make just to make ends meet and have a committed happy honest relationship, thats all i want. It's all i want.

These photo were taken so long ago, when we were skinny haha now we just eat at 1030pm then have a quickie and go to sleep.

Wedding Bliss, 19th and CEO Karoke + Random

2009-05-03T05:12:00.000-07:00

A very young happy couple. They've been together for about 5 years and have the most adorablest daughter. Congratulations Dinh and Jenet.

After TOO much Henessey.

Andy, coolest guy i know since year 3.

My tower Cassandra. Dont under estimate this girl. She broke another bitches nose in one punch. I dont want her to go to the navy!!

I cant smile in the braces!!

Bushes Meat! and a beautiful Italian Bakers Delight. Yep, the One in the black dress, a little 17 y.o prancing around in J-Lo heel that are GORGEOUS!

Tina Diana Emily.

I actually feel drunk just looking at that picture!

The wedding was huge! Henessey on every table. All the Cambodians danced and the dance steps were easy! The viets dance when cha cha was on. Food was devine. They played hard trance. . . which made it the more awesomer.

--------------------------------------------------------
Barvarian Bier Cafe

A german restuarant/bar. I dont recommend going there again. My scotch fillet was the same standard as going to a pub. Service was superb though and the waiting isnt that long.

CEO Karoke.

Beautiful architectually the place was Henessey'ed up!. So many rooms, updated music. We booked one a wee bit to small. We met the Security guard earlier on the train ride what a coincidence. He was such a funny cunt, when we were in the area of Redfern, where abos/ Indigenous Aust. live he told us to hold onto out shoes LOL!!! He moved a seat on the train to let some poor old lady have a seat, then she started preaching to him about god. hahA
Such a funny cunt. But he was very bored working because nothing happened (eg: Fights)
My individual conversation with him was like.

Diana: Is there alot of asian gangsta there and fights
Security: Sometimes
Diana: Over drugs and money aye?
Security: Yeh money
Diana: Typical asian, fighting about who's paying
Security: Yeh
Diana: Bloody tight arse asians

It took everyone ages to understand it. But me and him laughed our asses off, so it counts. =D

I have no idea what's going on with my hair there ! ^ Love how my skin looks =)

A few missing people, but yes a group photo.^

^HAHAHAHA i think he found love in my face! Oooh yeah, Prestige Skin Loving Minerals (L)

^Diana Thanh Joe Thuy Jason at Tank a while back.

I look like a love doll. =/

^Taken at Canley Vale Station.

^Loving winged eye and pretty pink lips.

^ Mineral Foundation like stated before.

I honestly dont know what my skin tone is, i really should head down to MAC and go bananas.

Alright that was about 2 weeks into one post. Im so busy and with final exams in like 4 weeks, ill only do little pops here and there. Take care everyone.

Silence.

2009-04-30T05:40:00.001-07:00

Im at my boyfriends place because my net is at it Max capacity at home.

I have worked WAY to much on this group assignment and i so believe my contribution is enough.

Here i tried Holly Ann-Aeree's "everyday" look but using the Modelista "Barcelona" Quad (Target $12.99). LOL, i can't do what she can do. Well, better than nothing!

as you can tell, i suck at paint let alone photoshop. ttyl! Take care sweetie pies

P.S. The lump on my right breast turned out to be nothing cancerous. Thank goodness! Just a lump of fat! But i should still feel it if it changes or anything. Im trying to be healthier, drinking water only, but it taste terrible but i must if i want to reach my goal.

Poker Face (Rock Remix) (feat. Kevin Figueiredo) - The 4O1 and Lady GaGa

2009-04-22T06:17:00.000-07:00

Random rant because i havent shopped.

Im so proud of myself, i havent spent any pay (or stimulus package) on makeup thus far. Ive been a busy bee, assessment after assessment.

Last friday i had my Introduction to International Business lecture and tutorial. There is this absolutely gorgeous French int. stu. and ive always felt awkward checking her out because im scared of being busted. Shes tall, slim blonde and doesnt care about her appearance. Anyways it was her groups' turn to do a presentation and she would not stop talking!! Hottest french/english accent EVER! I had to remind myself to breathe lol

Group work has been getting on my nerves because i feel like im doing 60% of the work. The other 2 doing 40%. This is definitely a first for me, usually im the dickhead that leeches off the smart people and shotgun the "introduction" part.

Wish List.

I am absolutely LOVING gold studs on everything, especially black.

^ Here, shoboots from Siren approx $140.00. However its peeptoe and i dont like that

^ These babies called "Twista" by Tony Bianco cost $300.00 - a knock off of Gucci(approx $1895) as modelled by the Beautiful Megan Fox.

Puss in boots never looked so good

^ My love for grey upper wear will never end i believe.

Fits like a glove. SportGirl $49.95
I'll just wait til they're up to their last few and buy it on sale.

Biggest BS movie. . . Not a lot of hot girls or hot guys ( but vin diesel makes up for it) not a single hot smokin sex scene. But the racing scenes are REALLY good and well thought out.

The guy that played Fenix Rose looked like the BIGGEST MR.T wannabe. You know what i mean if you've seen it.

Final scene, she's rolling in a HONDA NSX which is approx 100k or something along the lines. But omgggg she looks sooo cool.
Even though i cant turn, accelerate, break and/or park i can still drive and i wanna get my paws on this!

i dont know how to end here so.. take care everyone stay safe.

Im going to a shotgun wedding soon. like just under 2 weeks time. Its the cutest because the couple have already had their daughter in September and are getting married now because i suppose the reception function was only available on that night.

I totally forgot to put a photo of my dress, well basically its empire line and black. The bust is sparkly with blue sprinkles.

I dont know what to do for my eye make up.

OMG alien Headshaped.

I'm leaning towards the blue shade because of the hint of blue in my black dress.

A picture of (mainly) me and you

Thats my future husband, im still waiting for him to ask me to marry him and im gathering ideas for him on what to buy for my engagement ring. I've gotten so scooped up in the idea of marriage because his middle brother FINALLY proposed to his girlfriend of 5 years, and he never saw himself getting married. It gives me hope that my boyfriend does realise i do deserve a wedding after everything we've been through. I want my wedding to be small and intimate with close friends and some family.

I am actually more excited than the bride and groom!!

These photos were taken after a night of dancing on a cruise on a Thursday(09/04/09) night, followed by a 6am start to friday(10/04/09) for Paintball consisting of a 2 hours nap and proceeding to have an expensive seafood dinner with his fambam. All that and knowing i have work 8am the Saturday :D

Tuesday 7th i went Go Karting at Minto with work mates.We ate at a Pizza Hut " all you can eat" and it definetly was not all you can eat. There were approximately 4 different types of pizza and horrendous pasta sauce choice.My boss shouted us it is cost about $150 for 8 of us.

Here is the result.

This happened as a result of someone t-boning me as i was making a turn. It hurt soooo much because i was wearing tight jeans. It's scary because surrounding veins are showing up bruised. I will see a doctor soon. Just imagine real-life circumstances. Please dont speed and/or DUI.

The only things ive bought recently is:

1) Max Factor " Masterpiece GLIDE & DEFINE Liquid Eyeliner." Which is okay but my eyelids are oily so at the end of the day it just flakes off like Amy winos when shes off her face from the coke. Its a little too small as well, and considering i have small hands already it's hard to control.

2) Maybelline Instant Age Rewind concealer in Yellow. I like it a lot because its a shade that suits me. Blends well without the cakey packed on look.3) Revlon eyeshadow in Champagne

Review and FOTD and Rant

2009-04-05T05:07:00.000-07:00

Im so sorry for not blogging as off late. I had an essay to write for school and i've handed it in, so now i just hope for a pass!

i've been rather exhausted. Aveg 30 hours a week working, as well going to uni every monday, wednesday and friday night for 3 hours minimum. It's starting to take its toll and im hormonal as fuck! I cant even go gym anymore so i better pause mounties for few weeks ( costing me $36 a fortnight).

I feel so flawless, except for that zit on my forehead ><

Innocence =)
i think i have the worst bags, no matter how much i sleep ( sometimes 12hours) i still have bags.

A duplicate of the Gucci Spring 09 Campaign, which feature, Abbey Lee, Natasha Poly and Lily Donaldson, all three are my favourite models of a just a handful. I toned it down a little.The lashes are from M.O.D.E.L.21 and even though its just approx. 2mm longer than my other lashes its TOO long.

Chi Chi "pimp my style"
So shiteous, i had to pack on so much it hurt my eyelid.

I've recently purchase the 1000 Hours Heated eyelash Curler because i saw a lot of japanese girls using it in the magazine tutorials.

It cost $18. SO thats pretty cheap
Lesson 1: Dont comb it afterwards.
Lesson 2: Be extremely relaxed when using the heated curler, no rushing!

I hope to update more often it's just a bit crazy this semester.

On a slightly negative note, i found a lump in my right breast - the size of a pea, i was crying all nite to my boyfriend and got it check out straight after work the next day.

My GP says he would be extrememly surprised if its cancerous but he highly doubts that it is.
And because im still developing, breasts can be lumpy.

I think that is extremely confusing for any lady. Its either hormones or cancer.

In the meantime, im still waiting for my appointment on the 21st April to get a ultrasound. Its so long but im trying to keep myself busy.

RANT. I am HATING! the self service system at last chain stores.
For some reason everytime i shop which is evenings - there is:

1 express lane available.

1 Checkout chick

all 6 self services available.

The trolley is FULL!

You cant go in express line,
checkout chick has 5 full trolleys waiting
so you do the self service

The mother fucker goes off everytime you move your groceries back into your trolley because there's not enough room in your " Bagging area"

Its getting ridiculous, because if im scanning my own items, i should be getting a discount considering you're not paying any person to do the job.

And WOOLSWORTH! If you're going to dedicate ONE single day to give your entires profit to the farmers and think you're going to make a difference and " give back to the farmer", why dont you just give the farmers a better deal for their fruits and vegetables and goods instead of the supposedly 50c per kilo shit.

That's my first attempt of 3d nail art and of course im impressed! Also im very happy with that photo quality, taken with my mobile phone.

My favourite nails are the wedding ring finger, the heart and the white sparkly rude finger.

Hehe, this Duo reminded me of NARS blushes.
Its not tooo bad, but it isnt the best either. I've brushed some on my cheeks with no base and its still on after 4 hours. For $10, if comes with a surprising soft brush and mirror - Very cute packaging. I also like the hints of gold shimmer in it.

i like modelista quads. Long lasting and its pigment is okay for the price you're paying.
Very easy to blend and it was only $10. Im going to buy the most of the new range of quads.
I find it easier to use eye shadow applicators to apply their shadows ( to get the most colour), and then blend them with a brush to your liking.

My new princess i named princess.
Im so stoked about this purchase. Yes it's a knock off because of obvious reasons, i dont have US$1695.00 to blow my load on. It doesnt even come in the brown colour.it's not made out of lamb skin, no lampozipper, no metal plate.

And that is it...
Its even made to the EXACT size. i measured it, and it is
15' x 9.8" x 3.9"
The leather is thin and sooo soft.
It collapses when its empty.
Its even got Balenciaga and a serial number embedded into the leather! Not like some gold ink printed sticker on the leather.
The stitching is superb
All the gold metal is the EXACT.
The way they sewed the long strap is identical to the authentic.
It even came a cotton Balenciaga bag.
its a freakin heavy bag! but ohhh its love all over again.

And babe, i lied to you, it wasnt $100, it was $230.
I didnt tell you then and there because i knew you were gna skitz it.

LOVE YOU TOO VINCENT CAO!
*BIG HUGZZZZ***

My mum just came back home from Vietnam just over a week ago.
And i made a 7 page picture list of things i wanted.
She got only a few from the list but its better than nothing

I got a box of these M.O.D.E.L 21 faux lashes in Chinatown for $10.
Mum got these for 30,000 VND = 2.50 AUD
They're a bit too long so they'll probably just sit in a corner or im going to sell them on Ebay...

These are sooo unique. They're compressed TOWELS! You put them in water and then it expands. Which i think is great for traveling. Sanrio are well.

Pigment " Flashtrack " silvery blue $20.oo (RRP $39.oo)
Cream Colour Base "SHELL" Frost. $15.oo (RRP $35.oo)
[ Bought at Fairfield, Neeta city]

They dont fit my little kiddy nails unfortunately =(

22,000 VND = 1.80 AUD

I've seen these rhinestone circles at cabramatta for $15.00 each
35,000 VND = 2.90 AUD!! WTFFF and she only got me ONE white diamantes!!!

She didnt get enough big rhinestones!! =(

Beads for 3d nail art :D
These were " expensive" compared to everything else
60,357 VND = $5.00

Nail Stickers were like 1c EACH! Just for fun.

Twilight DVD

2009-03-20T05:06:00.000-07:00

Twilight pricings

ezydvd.com.au : $40 ish for 2 discs.
Borders : $37 ish 2 discs + twilight bag ( online orders only)
Sanity : $40.00 3 disc

the "3rd" disc have four never before seen scenes.

And quite frankly its already been posted on YOUTUBE. ( how hot was the first time she dreamt about edward !!! haha omg, teenage hormones ragin' again.)

Therefore, im just not going to bother with all this preordering mumbo jumbo and wait til JB Hi-Fi stock it.

I didnt and am not intending on buying anything from MAC Hello Kitty collection. Its just TOO expensive for me and i'd much rather get a G-star tee shirt than an eye pallet.

I did however purchase my first MAC pigment, its called "Flashtrack" silver blue colour and my goodness it is sooooo pigmented, and i only got it for $20! Its a cosmetic shop in Neeta City Fairfield ( shock) and she only have a small collection of MAC. But she told me to come back in a month and she should have more things so a pat on the back for finding brand new MAC.

Photos later.

Im just going to knock to bed now, had a 630am - 9pm day. Absolutely exhausted. 7am start work tomorrow . . .

Flashback

: : :

A fresh new start now with blogger.

Hi, I'm Diana and from Sydney Australia. In the day time i work at a butcher shop as a salesgirl and i go to school 3 nights a week. I enjoy food, sleep and all the other girly things.

Ive been with my boyfriend, Vincent on and off since i was 17. He will never understand why i need so many shoes and bags and clothes and makeup but i truelly believe that under his tough skin - deeeeep inside, there is an ounce of him that loves me for who i am and wants me to be the mummy of his babies.

I spend a lot of money but (90%) is on sale, so i dont feel so guilty.

This is just going to be a random blog about the jizz and jazz of my life.
