REVIEW: Queen Helene (100% Cocoa Butter)

Purchased from: forever-alicious.blogspot.com
Price: $9.90
Directions: Apply it where needed.
Comments:
I LOVE THIS!!! I applied it at night and it was a tad too oily for me. But when I woke up in the morn, it didn't feel oily at all and my face felt really soft and moisturized! :))) Apparently, it works great for scars too. But just like the Egyptian Magic Cream, it really did little to lighten the scar on my chin. :( Still, I will definitely purchase this again!

One thing though, it's quite hard to glide the butter onto your face initially. The surface layer kinda dries up, when not in used. I suggest that you rub the surface with your fingers first so that you won't apply too much pressure on your face when you glide it on. (Think: You won't provoke any eruption of wrinkles!!!)

(Again, ebay does have this at a much cheaper price.)

Taste the sweet accomplishment, why won't you?

I just had to blog because わたしわ finished studying the vocabulary for lessons いちばん and にばん! YAYAYA! (Hopefully, I can recall them あした! *impending gloom*)

Date: June 26th, 2009
Time: 11.45 PM
Scene: C and J's 部屋.

Mum: Is this the show about the robot boyfriend?
Me: Yep, yep! This is the robot! So cute right???
Mum: Yeah...
Me: BUT the chief is CUTER!!! *starts squealing*
Mum: Where? Where???
Me: Eh... Wait ah!

(after a while)

Me: THERE!!!
Mum: Huh? He isn't cute.
Me: He is!!!

(Korean HYD commercial comes up.)

Me: *pointing to Ji Hoo* See this guy, Mum?!? He's cute too!!!
Mum: Huh?!? Why do all the guys that you like look like girls?!?
-

Dor and I progressed from 0 mins of studying 日本語 to 30 minutes. おめてどう to us!!! :)))

(We made our way to Tampines after that! Haha. I got myself 'Shopaholic and Baby', VS Sassoon Nano Smart Hair Straightener and Ardell's MUCH RAVED Brow & Lash Growth Accelerator!!! I'm really excited about the last purchase because it has been sold out almost everywhere. There's only ONE left at Tampines Watsons!)
-

And gosh, can I please say that I love Tim Burton!!! Recently, I started having a penchant for Alice in Wonderland and the next thing I know... TADA!!! A Walt Disney movie on it by Burton!!! It's a sequel to the original story. And guess who's Mad Hatter?!?

JOHNNY DEPP!!!

tinker, tinker, tinkerbell!

I came home all red-eyed today. So Mum went out and got me this:

from 紀伊国屋. Yes, yes. I'm hitting 20 but I loveee Tinkerbell a lot. I think it has to do a lot with the fact that she's green. No, wait. Scratch that. it's EVERYTHING! Haha. Anyway, that cheered me up a lot! :))) ありがとう　ございます、　おかさ ん！！！
-

I got Photoshop CS installed in my lappie for quite a while now. But you know, the last time I played with it was like in 2005?!? Sighhh... My glory days. Oh well. Anyway, I decided to give it a shot today and boy, was I lost!!! I had to ask Cheryl for help and consult my trusty ol' 'Photoshop 7, Down and Dirty Tricks' book. But when I was finally done with my 'graphic' and though it was seriously simple, gahhhh... The feeling of accomplishment was A-AWESOME!!! :))) Haha. Next up, I wanna try and make a layout. But you know, I can so feel the lazy bones in me starting to act up... Hmm... Haha.
-

Dor and I are gonna mug 日本語　あした (This is... not even a partial sentence. But whatever... VOCAB first!!!). Haha.

(pauses for effect)

PLEASE DON'T LET IT BE ANOTHER EPIC FAILURE!!!

And Kiat will forever be the BEST manager ever!!! :)))

And oh oh oh! I just synced 水嶋ヒロ's photobook into my iPod. Hahaha. :)))

REVIEW: Queen Helene (Mint Julep Masque)

Purchased from: forever-alicious.blogspot.com
Price: $9.90
Directions: Apply it generously all over cleansed face and neck for 15 mintues and remove it with warm water and a washcloth.
Comments:
My face felt smooth and clean after using the mask. It was definitely refreshing. This mask works great on spots too. What I did was to apply a THIN layer onto the zit and leave it on the entire night. And it was gone the next day! Yay! (There was once when I was all 'itchy-hands' and decided to apply a thick layer to it. The next morning, the spot was all red and painful! I have no idea why, but that's how the mask works for me.)

(Note that ebay does sell the 2oz tubes at a much lower price! I thought I was purchasing the 8oz one. Should have checked. :((( )

Schedule for the dead.

Dance and graveyard await me tonight. Attempt at studying 日本語 was an epic failure. *gloom*

水嶋ヒロが大好きです！！！

REVIEW: Egyptian Magic (All Purpose Skin Cream)

Purchased from: ebay.com.sg
Price: $49.90
Directions: You take the amount that you need, then rub it between your fingers till the cream becomes oily and apply it where necessary.
Comments:
It looks a lot like Vaseline, but of course, the texture is way different. It was far too oily as a daily moisturizer for me and did little to lighten the scar on my chin. It did wonders for my parched lips, though. Still, the latter doesn't make it worth the buy because Vaseline works just as well for my lips.

That said, if you're really interested in getting this, I suggest you get the samples first. They are expensive, as comapred with buying the entire tub. But it will save you tons if you decide not to buy it afterall.

i'm done with it.

When your dream has found his reality, it's dead useless hanging around, even if you knew that that would be the case right from the beginning.
-

Hello, new dream. I have been waiting for you.

I had the best sleep ever yesterday. 12 hours straight. How swell is that
-

I only had the day to myself when I got home around 2 plus, having done all my collections (THANK YOU, DORCAS! For all your help!). Milled around the house, wondering if I should bother with suntanning at all. Bro said that it's not working but PERSERVERANCE WILL REIGN. Lmao. I don't want to be 'Ah Hui'!!!

Headed to the pool, armed with a bottle of water and 'Shopaholic Ties the Knot'. :))) I skipped at the back. 'Cause I was so bloody anxious to get to the end and Becky kept procrastinating. I was so afraid that if I read any more of her procrastination, it would become innate! Hahaha. Okay, whatever. I'm bullshitting again. Hur hur. Haha. XD

Derrick: (deadpanned) I'm gonna be your junior.
Me: Huh?!?
Derrick: (in an increasingly depressing voice) I got into Math Sci.
Me: (practically screaming my lungs out) WHAT?!? OMG. I'M SOOO HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG! OMG! OMG!
Derrick: Can't you tell that I am sad?
Me: (oblivious to all tones) Nope. (carries on my histrionics)
-

you lift my feet off the ground
you spin me around

you make me crazier crazier
feels like i'm falling
and i, i'm lost in your eyes
you make me crazier crazier crazier

do you know how you make me feel?
i give anything to feel like that,
over and over again.

have you got me covered for my mountain?

HELLO WORLD. I'm typing this entry from my spankin' brand new lappie!!! THANK YOU DADDY AND MUMMY!!! It's so rad and it's the best university present EVER (Well, I have only got one... But nevermind! Haha.) ! :))) And it will be even more so once I get Adobe Photoshop installed!!! Omg. Hello web-designing!!! I'm back!!! :)))

Caught 'Hannah Montana The Movie' with Dor!!! First of all, super many shout-outs to Dor! She has been helping me with tons of stuff (Like enquiring and ordering stuff from Ebay.com.sg) and going all the way down to Simei/ Tampines just to accompany yours truly. Gee. I sound like a spoilt brat. In defense, we either hang out in the East Side in t-shirts and shorts or go through the tedious effort to glam up a tad just so that we look presentable in town. I think we both choose comfort. Okay. I will check with Dor and get back to you. Haha. Second, I am loving Miley Cyrus more and more! Haha. I used to not like her voice. It didn't border on dislike. Just okay BUT I think it's due to Filza that I am completely feeling it now! Haha. :))) Go Miley!!! Charlene, you're going on 20! Even if sometimes you absent-mindedly fill in 15 on application forms... And the male lead was romantic so yay! Haha. I'm such a sucker for stuff like this.

Dance was FANTABULOUS just now. B noticed me for the first time and corrected me. Then, silly o' me had to go screw it up. Seriously, in whatever that I do, I cannot receive compliments of any sorts. It goes to my head. I mean, my head doesn't 'go big' or whatever. It's just that I want to take a few moments to appreciate it and reflect upon it. I guess I have done so many wrongs that when I do a right and someone alerts me to it, I want to be fully cognizant of what the right is. Dor chooses comfort too! Haha!!! In about 2 months' time, Jurong Point will be THE place to go for us!!! Hehe. And then, I get all distracted and cannot concentrate. I know very well that I can go do my weird appreciation thing later but I don't want to lose THAT moment, you know?

Okay. You don't know. Just take it that yours truly is just plain weird. Haha.

Oh. L's dance was so fab too! As always. :)))
-

Work tomorrow. I can't wait for it to end. 'Cause then it'll be 'by-the-pool' time with my last few chapters of 'Remember Me?' by Sophie Kinsella. I went nuts today and got myself 2 books from the Shopaholic series today.

And so, yes. I'm very broke.
(The fact that I ordered more stuff online just compounds the entire I'm-so-friggin'-dead situation. I mean, my piggy bank is in the bloody negatives! And I have not put a single cent into my bank for 2 years and 6 months. Just great!)

Call yourself a friend.

Somehow... No, it isn't somehow. I know the exact reason why. Where she is concerned, I find myself constantly waging some kind of silent war (with her). It's been so long already but that incident gets to me with the same level of intensity that it did 2 years ago. Why in tarnation are the memories still so raw?!? Isn't bloody time supposed to heal those damn wounds/ scars? Now you know that it's a big fat lie.
-

I'm just being stupid, isn't it? It's not that time heals or that it doesn't. It's all up to you... To me. The war that I'm waging is dumb. So is the envy, the insecurities, the uncertainties, the superfluous fears, the slothfulness, the self-wallowing, the constant comparison... Everything!
-

I have everything that I need. Wants aren't needs. Didn't the Economics Department drill that in our heads a gazillion times already?

by the stars.

Dreamt of K last night. And do I consider it a nightmare. Sigh sigh sigh. He was absolutely fantabulous in it. Smart, cool, silent, protective blah blah blah... Like ughhh?!? How am I gonna talk to him CALMLY and SANELY from now on?
-

Some dreams feel hellishly real. Ugh ugh ugh.
