Reinventing Your Exit

Sunday, November 30, 2008
I am so stupid I can cry.

So yesterday night, I mistook one tiny bump on the cheek to be a milia seed and I took a pair of fine scissors, those you cut your hair with, use the sharp end to scratch and poke at it. While poking, I realise that it is not a milia seed but another ordinary little bump which will fade/disappear in a couple of days -_-

(And if anyone tried poking, one would realise that the bump doesn't feel like pimple, it can't be squeezed nor popped easily. I used the scissors because people use needles to poke milia seeds but eh, I'm much less afraid of the paper cutter than needles.)

Anyway, after choosing my well beloved weapon, I procceeded to treat the bump like milia for another 5 minutes. So when I decided to stop stabbing (weird but true) the sharp end into my skin as I realised I was much mistaken, it was too late -_- Even though the bump faded, it was replaced with this red, floaty patch of irritation. And bah, I was whining about my easily irritated skin condition at my previous post D:

Applied random creams and gels and whatevers on the spot out of desperation.

Washed my face.
Slapped a thicckkk layer of Jorubi aloe vera gel after that to soothe the irritation.
Applied Cetaphil moisturising lotion next.
I then dabbed The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil on it.
Then Carmex which is said to relieve cold sores and chapped lips, even though irrelevant to the irritation.
Prosacea Rosacea Treatment Gel which helps to reduce redness and bumps. My life saver everytime (Y)
After that was Olay Definity Anti-Spot Treatment Night in case of scary pigmentation.
Finally, I settled with GNC Vitamin E and slept.

And I woke up this morning only to have a scratch greeting me :D Even though I felt the scratch was quite deep (due to the stabbing obviously) and I was certain that it would still leave some sort of pigmentation, but at least no bumpy bumpy irritation whoooooo! I am not sure whether which of the 8 steps worked la, or maybe none worked at all (which means all those were unnecessary) but eh cannot take chances bahahha. So I'm happy, even though I'm stupid.

Oh die. I've 2 diploma modules to complete this December, starting from today ):

Skin skin skin

This post doesn't really concern anyone. Just another irregular update on my skin so I know how to deal with it later on in the future whooo. But come to think of it, my posts are always about me, like how others' are only about others anyway. Bah.

So I have this really sensitive, oily combination skin. If I used any wrong products (too strong or too rich or too whatever), there would be this dry, red, patchy and shiny (?!??!) irritation on my cheeks going on for a few days. And all this started because of that Clean&Clear facial cleanser? Because my parents couldn't stand how senstive my skin was/is, they decided to throw me at some doctor who specialise in the skin.

Anyway, the clinic's products are not bad I think, it's only the second month of my treatment, or whatever it is called, and the doctor told me I needed four months.

And it cost almost 200 bucks for 2 months worth of products for the second visit which I'm using right now. Cost my mum 100+ for the first visit for the trial products. Was told that it would cost almost $300 for my third visit which would only last for 3 to 4 months.

The point is. I am not spending like 1000 bucks, or rather, I'm not making my parents spend those money if my skin does not improve at the rate I want it to be. There's slight improvement in my skin but not really significant enough to make it worth the price my mum paid for. I'm not unreasonable to expect miracles la but eh, at least something better?

Will switch to Clinique after I finished my current set. The Clinique 3-Step Skincare regime only costs around 100 bucks and I will be given samples too :D

And the cause of this post is, Clean&Clear. Damn.

Bah bah black sheep have you any wool

Uhm yeah. I'm hungry. I need food kays byebye.

Bah.

One fine Sunday afternoon and one assignment made the already-not-fair me tanned like *&%^*&*$. But at least I got paid immediately and I can buy all the makeup from Hello Kitty Collection which I want :D I'm only left a step to my US$120 worth of them yo! Which is, for it to launch. Whoohoo I rock :}

And my Dad rocks too. He say he'll buy one of the makeup from Hello Kitty Kouture for me :DD Maybe the US$28 Dazzleglass? I am not illogical enough to ask the US$90 Sheer Mystery Powder, although I want it too ): (Aiyah I just feel like buying the whole load of HK Collection & Kouture la). But I am still a very very veryyyy happy person right now <3>

Anywayyy. Tomorrow's the last episode of this Channel 8 10pm drama, By My Side ): And I am sad because it will be last day in weeks I can see Elvin Ng on screen. Sigh. And I found out a couple of weeks ago that he's 28 this year. I thought he was only 25 or 26. Damn. Why do almost all the people I like at least 10 years older than moi? Bah.

I LOVE MAC

Hello Kitty Collection & Kouture

This picture said it all (:

I am getting a lipstick or lipglass at the very least.

Beauty powder and mascara seems pretty good.

Oh and the eye palettes.

If I'm getting any, it'll be the Lucky Tom quad.

And let's just assume I'm going to buy what I've mentioned.

I need to save US$120 by next year.

At the rate I'm spending, it's impossible.

So maybe I can just exclude the Lucky Tom.

(But it reminds me of Tom (Felton) D:)

And I guess I do not need the beauty powder.

Cannot stand pink tones on my cheeks.

Whoa only US$40!

YAYYYYYY!!

Can even buy right now whoohoooo!

Activites :D

Life has been treating me well lately. Doing things that I love doing because exams are over (Y) Even though my diploma starts again in 1st December (2 modules to complete D:), I'm still a happy person :D

High School Musical 3

Watched it with Meiling, Irene and Calvin :D Oh oh oh, Calvin's heading to Australia for holiday and he promised to bring a koala back! I'm gonna name it "Panda" hehe :D Anyway, HSM3 HSM3 HSM3 is such a fun movie.

Very glam and fab. In terms of cinematography, it is so much better than a lot of other teen flicks. And unfortunately for the uncle sitting beside me, he has to bear with all the noise Meiling and I made. Like during the start, Troy's head popped out and the two of us screamed not very loudly :D

The only downside for me is that the movie focused too much on Troy & Gabriella ): I want more Sharpay & Ryan. And Jimmie is quite cute, the one who made Sharpay sang the 'Even when we're miles and miles and miles aparttttt', even though he is bit crazy. And hmm Tiara is not bad too, and the actress is only like what, 14 this year? I like the way she sang A Night To Remember because of her accent. Donny is adorableee too. Hehe.

And if HSM4 is going to happen, I would still watch it because Jimmie is really quite cute.

Yuming & Mayjan

Like I've said, Mayjan is so prettaye and Yuming is so skinny :D And I saw Jesrene there! It's been like really long since I've met her, half a year at least?

Anyway I hated the priority queue. Remembered that time when Aska came, Starhub was part of the organiser or whatever and they allowed their customers to stand in front. So Singtel was the organiser/sponsor/whatever this time round and instead they let us queue infront, the priority queue was occupied by their official fanclub -_-

Of course I took better pictures of the stage but this crew looks exactly like Andrew in 10 years time. And everybody who knows him agree with me :D

So the next day was the live band session at Lunar. They sang almost all the songs in the album and two other songs and I really have no idea what to type already la.

Kose Private Sales

I really wanted to get the eye shadow palette but I did not ): It costs like almost $50 and since I just bought two MAC pigments (and I got them alreadyyyy :D), decided not to get it in the end. At least I lugged back 3 (very cheap) products. Whitist gel to liquid foundation, Visee lippy and Visee eyeliner. And since they are really cheap, I spent like $25 only, the quality isn't very good in my opinion. Aiyah still better than nothing and since we made the trip all the way to GWC (and got lost for a bit), I have to buy something. Even if it's something I don't like at all and am not gonna use that ever again.

But now right, I felt like I could just grab another lippy, a foundation refill and the point makeup remover at the very least. Super indecisive and made Lingxuan waited for Michelle and I.

"Trust me, Dora and Mich really fought in the battle, grabbing whatever stuff they like." :D But like what Michelle said, only to return almost all of them.

I feel like taking a picture of the makeups I bought in October and November :D Makes me happy seeing them.

Y2J THIS FRIDAY!

I am not happy that Draco and Dumbledore's little conversation is going to be abridged. This is terrible. I find it quite diluted in the first place already and omygoshhh how am I suppose to survive the Half-Blood Prince? ):

I am also not happy that my 2 jars of MAC pigments in Old Gold and Tan is taking forever to arrive and I have to wait for at least 2 weeks?! *Starts throwing (bah)s around*

Y2J (Mayjan's) :D

Really pretty ahhhh! Even though I am quite disappointed in the lighting and all ): It made her look so.. pallid-ish?

But still better than some shit-ass company (hints*) who doesn't even care for their artiste (coughs*) tsk. I can throw many many (bah)s at them only to have the sheeps bounce back because of their feeble excuses lor. I can even write a 2000 words essay to express my hatred right now pfft.

OP ENDED YAY ME!

I am sososo relieved now that my OP has finally ended (: The fact that PW is pretty much over has sinked in like an hour ago :D Was super stressed during lunch and everything but now it's overrrrr !! And seriously, Aska helped me calmed down. Alot.

Raihanie and Raphael were saying that everyone did better during our actual one than all of our dry runs so yay (Y) Eh but the answering question part was a bit sucky for me ):

What are the rules and regulations of your plan?

Totally stunned. The person has to repeat the question again upon seeing my blank expression even without asking him to do so. And I think my answer went tangent and off the curve la. I was saying about how certain types of videos with positive messages (like the government's yellow ribbon project) are recommended to be uploaded online, while others (like pornographic materials) shouldn't be. Throw in a bit of elaboration like why and that's my answer.

But the problem is that I don't know who started the yellow ribbon project la! Wanted to say the jails and prisons but they just don't sound pretty enough so I subsituted it with the 'government'.
And even if I know who started the yellow ribbon thingo right, my answer is like out of point. Who cares about the government when it is OUR project! As in, our pilot plan only consists of the MI students ): I'm doomed la how D: I know it's over and I shouldn't think about it but arghhhh. It's not easy to stop pondering over it just because I know I shouldn't!

Oh yah, I think I presented abit on the "we would like to promote this to the other organisations." I hope they remember I did actually touch on it! Pleasepleaseplease.

But anyway, I really have to thank Mr Wong :D I remembered how he edited almost every single sentence of our WR just the day before the submisssion date so that we will not exceed the word limit crazily (even though he's got his children to pick up from school), how he sat in for our final dry run the day before OP itself (which means yesterday in the evening) and presented our presentation to show us how we can improve. Bit scared and worried to know that he's like soooo much better than any of us. But he's the teacher and teachers are supposed to be good (Y)

Ripped this from CY's blog and he looked really happyyy
with the board our class did :D
I don't know what happened to my hair (but I never do anyway)
and hohoho dark eye circleszx D:

Post Edit.

Whoooo. I checked and "Yellow Ribbon Project is spearheaded by the Community Action for the Rehabilitation of Ex-Offenders (CARE) Network. It was officially launched in October, 2004, by President S R Nathan." And then there's a series of government links. Hehehe. Lucky me :D

I'm ruined D:

I can cry doing my A Level H1 Math. The pure mathematics questions don't seem to be in syllabus (at least for me -_-) and statistics questions were bad. But they've never been nice to me so yeah, kinda numbed to them already. But pure math! Shit much.

And we've to prepare for our OP tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow and the day after the day after tomorrow. I think we're lucky to be the last group to present, somehow. More time to brush up on our slides.

Meeting B later for dinner :D And I'm really hungry now seeing that I've only had one third of some sandwhich today. I swear he's got stalker -_-

Feeling numbed

I felt so much more motivated for my A Level H1 Math paper this Tuesday while I was doing past year questions. I've wasted so much time on various JC papers D: Few of them were alright, but papers from schools like Hwa Chong (what was I even thinking to actually attempt them geez) nearly killed me. So now, I'm solely surviving on the little green book.

I know it won't get me an A, but I've never gotten any of it since Statistics became part of my syllabus. So yeah, I'm hoping for an E (which is incredible for me if I really do pass that subject). And at least, completing those past years questions give me some sense of achievement.

3 more days till my self-proclaimed death day and I'm still here, making a wish list for Christmas 2008.

International teaser trailer for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

Glimpse of Draco at 1:03 and a full view at 1:09 :DD
A more mature version of Draco is portrayed as compared to the previous films.But well, still hot.
