ME makeup artist?

No no no. I’m definitely not one. I’m a plain girl studying one of the nerdiest course there is. A SA told me I look like some one who is studying make up when I was browsing one of the stall in Time Square today. Maybe it was the eye make up I had on. I played with my 120 eyeshadow palette  for the first time today. I receive it on Friday but didn’t try it out till today. This is the look that I’ve done with my new toy:

Green paradise look

a close up...

My face look so oily after coming back from Times Square, hair also look so messy. The colour I used remind me of the Parrot. Don’t you think it look like the colour of their feathers? :-P

And introducing my eyeshadow palette of 120 colour:

so many colours!

Before getting this I was complaining about not having sufficient shade but with this the only complaint I will have is how do I combine all this colour :-D I purchased it for RM70 online and it arrived just after one day. I say it was a great bargain.

The malls are filled with people lately, is it because Chinese New Year is close already and everyone is busy buying clothes. I got mine already so don’t need to squeeze with the crowd :-) Guess everyone is in the New Year mood?

Happy always

25 hours…

Tired ar! I’m do dead-dog tired. Class has only started for one week and I feel that I have so much to catch up already :-( Homework for the whole week still piling and I’m no where near finishing it. Ever since I join the gym it has been so busy for me. Working out takes about 1 hour at least and bathing and washing clothes takes even longer. How I wish I have an extra hour each day to just stop and drool. Just sitting on my study table and do nothing is actually very relaxing. I actually don’t know what I did that took up all my time. Time slip off from my fingers just like that.

Since I have not posted anything since Wednesday, I will tell you what I’ve been doing and maybe you could help me figure out where my hours have gone to. On Tuesday I went to the gym for a session with the personal trainer who didn’t show up and I went to class afterwards. I did the same routine for Wednesday but this time the trainer came. Thursday, class at 8 and went shopping with Pei Leng in Pyramid for New Year clothes afterwards. Friday, supposed to have a full day class but last slot was cancelled. Class cancellation isn’t great news for an ACCA student, because there is for sure to have a replacement class at the most miserable time ever. The college is trying to make sure the ACCA student have their money’s worth right? So now I should sound super excited to have another class: YEAH! It would be much more enjoyable if I’m not suffering from back pain and had enough sleep. Coming back to what I’ve done the whole week, after class on Friday I went to the movies with dear to watch The Spy Next Door. He wanted to watch it because Jacky Chan was in it. Which guy don’t like Kung Fu stuff and Jacky Chan le, that’s why I accompany him even though I was so tired. After the movie we had to rush back from Cineleisure to Pyramid to celebrate one of his friends birthday.

As for today, I had a work shop with Good Skin Lab at Midvalley. It started at 2.30 pm but we arrive earlier. I saw that they were having a beauty exhibition so as a beauty addict you could have guest what happen right? I went there and look around. The stuff they were selling range from skin care to nails product to plastic surgery. Yup, you heard right, plastic surgery. It was offered by one of the private hospital in Ampang. A women approached me cautiously and bit shy and the thing I heard that caught my attention was breast implant. I didn’t know that Malaysia allowed this to be advertise. But I know why she spoke to me so softly. It is because in Asian countries it is still a taboo for girls to undergo plastic surgery and it is still a concept not widely accepted yet. I took this chance to touch the breast implant. But now as I thinking back, do I really look like a potential customer?!

After the exhibition, he asked me to accompany him to buy some new year clothings. Managed to get one only due to time constraint. Rushed to the workshop afterwards but arrived too early and we were the first. They did presentation and demo for us and we get to do our own faces using the product provided. I was actually hoping that today through the demo maybe I could find some thing for my skin. It is getting annoying red these days and pimple keep popping out like mushrooms. As usual I did buy something back, broke my budget with this purchase again. It cost me Rm 165 after RM50 discount for a night treatment. I really hope to find something that works for my skin ASAP. Fingers cross that my skin clears up and my target weight achieve before Chinese New Year.

Happy always.

Marketing BullS**T

I went for my first complimentary personal training session yesterday. It was suppose to start at 2pm but the trainer was late by 45mins. Very very bad first impression. During training she didn’t seem as committed as she should be. The worst part is after the training she asked me to take up the 6months personal training course. Maybe you still think its nothing right? She just asked me to consider only right? But the price of ONE session is RM115 and it cost close to RM7000  for 6 months! Its just too crazily expensive for a student who survive on my parents. Paying RM139 per month is enough for me. I feel like giving up on their free session so that I don’t hear this crap from the trainer at the end of every session. I should have known their complimentary session was the bait to lure me into purchasing the full course. Stupid marketing people are definitely behind this…grrrr…. And the thing is the trainer won’t even smile at you unless you buy the course!

These idiots are so realistic har? You buy from me then you’re my friend, other than that you’re no one to me. Crazy people like this makes the world go round these days…Sad to say :-(

Happy always.
