Sick like a dog

Oh dear... I guess too much partying has caught up to me... I am SICK LIKE A DOG! :( My nose is all blocked up, my throat all itchy, dry and sore... It feels totally horrible!

I do have a lunch on today because my friend is going home to Singapore for a few months... I don't really feel up to it but I have to make it cause I adore her :) Will make sure to take photos, I'm such a camera whore.. lol

Also, I've been wanting to try Make Up Forever HD foundation and the translucent powder, does anyone know where I can buy this online? Cause, as you may well know from my mass amounts of whinging previously, Perth just doesn't have the range of make up that I'd like! They also jack up the price ridiculously! I saw on the Nars website that the eyeshadow duos are like $32, it's $75 here!! Can you believe that??? Same with MAC stuff... eyeshadows are $32, pigments are $40... I nearly died when I found out! I just want to migrate my way to Sephora :(

Enough of my whinging and whining... these are just some pictures that I took this morning at like 7am... after 3 hours sleep... *whineeeeeeeeee* I had to wait for the plumbing man and the Foxtel (cable) guy to come... I HATE IT WHEN THEY SAY "We'll be there between 7.30am-12.30pm!" I'm just like, you can't be more specific?!?? URGH! Okay... I just whinged and whined without meaning to, its just going to be one of those days... le sigh...

Laters dolls!

I've finished my exams!!! Oh my gosh I've never been so happy in my whole entire life!!! :D I finally... FINALLY... was able to put on false eyelashes too! Oh my gosh, today has been one of the happiest days of my life! :P

There's also some photos of my new room.. it's tiny but it's cosy :) I love it! I built my own bed and cabinet too! Both from IKEA, gotta love that shit... DIY is totally fulfilling! And I know my room is messy okay? :P I'm still not done doing it up yet :)

That painting that's the last photo is a painting I did in Year 12 and I've always been meaning to put it up but I've been putting it off...

2 down... 1 to go!

Ohhh I am so beyond excited! I've finished 2 exams, and I've only got one to go before I'm free from the university's wrath! I also bought some stuff :)
  • Laneige Strawberry Yoghurt Peeling Gel (Which I got my friend in Singapore to buy for me :D) - Thanks to Ms. Pam xpinkxx - I will do a review on it after my exams and everything has finished.
  • Witch Hazel Toner
  • Benefit 'Her Glossiness' lipgloss
  • Olay moisturiser
  • 1 pair of false eyelashes (Lash Me - I think?)
I haven't been able to buy much cause I've just been stuck studying like a mad woman... I think I must've had like 2 Redbulls and 1 can of Mother and an energy pill, and this was all in the past day! I gotta say I was trippin' balls last night... was soooo alert and jumpy, my boyfriend kept laughing at me... what a nice boy! haha

I can't wait for all this bullcrap to be over and done with and I get back to normal life...! Hope you ladies are all well!

I will now leave you with some gorgeous photos of my darl
ing honeybun, love of my life, boy who will love me no matter what..... BANGLES! :D One look into his gorgeous big brown puppy eyes... and I melt... I can't ever stay mad at him, all I can do is just cuddle him :) This is what you call love!

A little update - MOVED IN! EXAM TODAY!

Hiya everyone!
Just a little update... I don't have internet at my new house yet so right now I'm resorted to using the net at university and I've already been capped for this month! : Too much facebook, tetris and poker on facebook this month me thinks!
I'm loving my new home, although it's really hard for me to move to new places because I get homesick really easily, this new place already feels like home to me :) My room is UBER small but it's cozy... I bought a cabinet from IKEA and had heaps of fun trying to build it with my mom, although I did screw up the bottom and now it's back to front, you can't even notice it! I will take photos of my room when I get the chance to.... probably next week on Monday when my exam finishes, so wish me luck everyone! I have an exam today at 12.15pm and I'm totally crapping my pants! Hope you're all well and can't wait to update more soon!

End of semester exams... moving houses... whatnot

Hiya ladies! Sorry for the abandonment of my blog, lack of updates, etc... I've been killing myself studying for my 3 final exams.... How I wish I studied earlier and went to every class! Lesson to everyone, go to class, it'll be so much easier for you at the end... I'll start doing that next semester.... Pffft... I'm kidding myself, I won't be doing that next semester.. lol

My body clock is totally out of whack, at the moment I am sleeping at 6am and waking up
around 1.30pm because I study through the night...

On an exciting note, I'm
moving houses today! WOOO! Not really... my new room is totally small and I feel extra claustrophobic when I go in cause I have a queen size bed... maybe I should just buy a double bed or something... hmmm... thought!

Anywho... I will be off and stopping my ramblings because at the moment I am on two hours sleep... exhausted.... and ready to just pass out! Have a good one girls! Will be posting up more soon! Here are just some recent pictures from outings and a laptop photo of me at the moment... as you can see, all the packed up boxes behind me, my glasses, the bags under my eyes, bad skin from stress, URGHHHH exams why won't you go away!

Daily look

I decided to play around with my laptop camera, yet again... yes I know I'm a camera whore! lol This is usually the look I that I do everyday, I got this look from Michelle a.k.a RiceBunny. I followed the 'Larger, Brighter eyes Tutorial' which can be found at:

http://www.xanga.com/RiceBunny/597529183/brighter-larger-looking-eyes--makeup-tutorial.html

Of course I tweaked it a little to suit what I liked, but I basically followed her steps and viola! larger, brighter eyes!

I also know you can't really see the detail or colours very well and I'm sorry... I will take proper photos if anyone really wants to know what it looks like on me or a proper tutorial, other than that, enjoy! Hope you like it! :)


Ohhhh! One more thing, well actually 2...! I've been doing the aspirin mask and the sugar scrub from Michelle's site too and I must say that my skin has cleared up and just has a better texture to it! If you are interested the links are:
