Recently I realize that I don't have the passion to blog anymore. I guess I just forget the reason why I started this blog in the first place. I just wanted it to be a place where I can ramble on and on about whatever things I'd like to say, I didn't really care if anyone read it, because I just want to ramble non-sense and just to pour out every single thing I think, I do, etc.
Because let's face it, I'm quite a chatty girl. ok. fine. I'm reaaalllyy chatty that I don't think anyone can really bear with me through out my whole blabbers. Even Sam, who claims to ALWAYS listen to me when I rambles, at some point I'm pretty sure, he'd dozed off *shrug shoulder*. So this blog is kinda a platform for me to..well..rambles. Like NOW.
I know this entry doesn't even make sense, but I just want to, well, again, rambles. (I seriously need to find another verb for 'ramble' -___-").
Errm...
I guess that's all?
Right now I'm thinking on what else should I put in this pointless entry. Like a photo, maybe?
Oh! oh! I have instagram now! :D Well, actually I've had it for a while, but never used it.

ending off with this very yummy-looking waffles :p
for you who happen to read this in the middle of the night and finding yourself salivating over it, well, I really can't do much, so...well, it was delicious though~
This video has been up for almost 2 weeks now, but I was just waaaaayyy too lazy to post it here
-__-"..
Is it a pain in the ass to remove?
definite YES.
But I think the cuteness is worth it :)
Plus, you can always use the aluminium foil method, it'll make it a whole lot easier. I wasn't using that method when I removed this nail art, so it was hard.
Anyway, this will also used up a lot of your pearls.
I'm uploading a tutorial right now ;) (but I'm trying something right now, so the video will remain private for a while)
Anyhow, I've been tweaking the codes of my blog template for the past hours, and now comment is available!! ^^ I've also tweaked the side bar (giving it dropdown menu, search by brand, by finish etc).
I'm not done yet though, there are still a couple things I wanna change.
This is one of the Revlon polishes I picked up a week ago while my family come to visit :)
It's the polish that caught my eye the second I saw it.
As you can see, it's a beautiful teal/greenish color that will totally remind you of the easy breezy beach. It has a very "mermaid-ish" feel to it. I do think "Ocean Breeze" is a perfect name or maybe "Mermaid Lagoon" is good too, right? It reminds me more of a mermaid rather than the ocean.
In the bottle it looked like it will have a duo-chrome sorta finish, but it's not. Still, very pretty color.
This one is one thin coat. It's definitely still very sheer, obvious VNL and very strokey.
Two thin coats. It's still a bit strokey, but I think tou can get away with 2 thick coats.
And 3 thin coats :)
I stopped layering it at this point, because in real life it's actually already decent-looking, but as in the photos above, the finish still a bit strokey, but won't be so obvious if you don't like really stare at it.
It ended up to be a frost finish (hence, the strokey) with slight change of color if you look at it from different direction, so no, it's deifinitely not a duo-chrome. A bit lean to iridescent IMO.
I don't really have a problem with applying this polish. They're easy to apply and layering them were easy too.
What I do have problem with though, is the scent!! I seriously cannot stand the scent. I know it's supposed to be parfume-scented nail polish, but the smell was just too "chemically" and too much and just ugh!! Maybe it just me, but they smell like someone who POURED parfume all over his/her body.
And the other problem, and I'm having this with all Revlon nail polishes I've tried, is the brush. They're just soooo skinny please. I like my brush to be fuller so it's easier to use.
But other than that, I like the "Ocean Breeze" :)
So, yeah, in conlusion I like this nail polish and I'm willing to deal with the scent and the brush because I really like the color ^^
This one, different than usual, is actually my nails today :)
It's a regular mani, because I don't have the feel to do nail art recently :(
Anyway, the color's by The Skin Food. It's a beautiful greyish color with micro-glitter. I put matte topcoat on this one, that's why it's not shiny, but trust me, it is a really beautiful shimmery color.
Out of korean brand that I've tried (Etude House, The Face Shop, The Skin Food), The Skin Food is probably my most favourite. The formula is excellent, this one goes smoothly with only two coats and you can actually get away with one coat if you apply them a bit thickly. And brush is in good shape too.
Sadly, they're too pricy for me, so I only have two of them.
p.s.
I'm working on the quality of photos of the nail art in this blog right now, I know the past photos quality were quite sucky, so I'm working on it, please bear with me :) And seeing all of those nail art blog really made me feel I need to upgrade (lightning, neatness of nail art, etc).
And I'd like to state that this is NOT a nail art blog, it's a blog where I write about my life, my passion, my friends, whatever I feel like to write :)
I'm just finished with my mid-term. I haven't got my laptop back yet, but apparently I have one tutorial that I've edited ages ago, so that will be my tutorial this month :)
Been in the downer, thus have no spirit to blog whatsoever.
very big cotton candy, yes? even bigger in real life!! ^^
//edit (originally posted on May 3rd)
p.s. speaking of cotton candy, I really really want the Revlon Cotton Candy!! It's a very subtle, yummy-looking baby pink
let me search for the pic ^^

Revlon is still quite reachable for me, so I might getting it if I get the chance. It's a buzz-killer though that it's parfume-scented. I just bought 2 revlon recently when my parents come to visit and one of them is parfume-scented. And for the life of me, I HATE the smell!! It's very "chemically".
Anyway, I'll talk about the 2 Revlon I just got recently on the next post :)
I just discovered it yesterday on my way to Living World with Sam. I RAREly (almost never) turned on the radio, I usually listen to the song from the usb, but yesterday I feel like listening to the radio, so I turned it on. And this song was on already 3/4 thorugh and it really caught me quickly.
I listen to it carefully for the lyric and search it on google :) *all hail whoever made googling is possible on mobile phone*
Somewhere there's speaking
It's already coming in
Oh and it's rising at the back of your mind
You never could get it
Unless you were fed it
Now you're here and you don't know why
But under skinned knees and the skid marks
Past the places where you used to learn
You howl and listen
Listen and wait for the
Echoes of angels who won't return
[Chorus]
He's everything you want
He's everything you need
He's everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
He says all the right things
At exactly the right time
But he means nothing to you
And you don't know why
You're waiting for someone
To put you together
You're waiting for someone to push you away
There's always another wound to discover
There's always something more you wish he'd say
[Chorus]
But you'll just sit tight
And watch it unwind
It's only what you're asking for
And you'll be just fine
With all of your time
It's only what you're waiting for
Out of the island
Into the highway
Past the places where you might have turned
You never did notice
But you still hide away
The anger of angels who won't return
[Chorus]
I am everything you want
I am everything you need
I am everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
I say all the right things
At exactly the right time
But I mean nothing to you and I don't know why
And I don't know why
Why
I don't know
