i'm in a wahaha mood.

i was reading urban on thurs and i discovered this article "the death of an 'it' bag", which made me realise that hey, it wasn't just me who felt that all the shops were littered with ysl muse-replicas. :D and while that was my main school of thought, i read another article in this month's female, which talked about the while-stocks-last charm bracelet ysl was giving out with the purchase of their muse or downtown (i think). and i must admit it looked pretty cute :X especially the downtown bag charm. so adorable, so tempting (to get it), but when i thought of using the bag itself, i almost forgot the charm bracelet existed.

anyway i'm happie with my cars and suitcase for now, as well as the tan shopper i use for work :X

ooh and i had a haircut yesterday at far east, and omg i think the hairdresser really enjoyed cutting my hair. he asked if i was comfortable with the length of my fringe (because it really is visibly shorter than usual) and i said yea, it's fine.. because it doesn't matter that it's a little shorter than usual since it grows twice as fast as my hair at the back, so he asked if i want to cut more and i quickly answered "no, i think this is just right". and to my horror he started trimming, and trimming, and trimming. :X which brought me to think that he really must be enjoying the feeling of snipping. i didn't dare say anything or stop him because i thought he really might be trimming it to make it look nicer haha~ (vulnerability when the scissors are in somebody else's hands, just like when the spatula of wax is in somebody else's hands during a waxing session haha!). well anyway i'm quite happy with the cut. i look tooter now, and younger (or maybe i look like someone old who's trying to act young). but well doo said it's cute and i don't look weird, so nvm~ i'm up for this fringe cut! i'm just wondering though if matched with the striped pinafore with oversized button tabs at the straps which i intend to wear for CNY, + the floral suitcase, wouldn't i look like a good ol' schoolgirl? AHAHAHA. we'll see.

and one more thing. i finally got my nails done!!!!!!!!!! in the colour i've been SO WANTING TO DO!! that reddish pink :D:D:D it's that happy colour that's a great alternative to the usual, plain red and looks fab in any kind of light! XD! i am deeeeelighted! it doesn't look that bad on toes and i definitely will do it again. HOORAY i am moving away from the reds, blues and purples which all of which i have tried before :X now the thing is to preserve them until CNY actually comes :X cos i'm always kicking and bumping into stuff at work :X i suppose i would have to wear socks then. which reminds me, work on the eve of CNY is for an entire day T_T!~ and it's lesson planning week~!~!~!~!

i'm not exactly the sort who gets a haircut or who gets my nails done because its CNY. it's more of because i feel like getting one, i feel that i need one, and as my bestest of friends know (or do they?) - i go to a manicurist to be groomed and not to be beautified (grooming meaning: trimming of my poor, chipped nails and simply topping it off with a gorgeous colour which would boost my happy-o-meter. wearing colours on my nails is like dressing them up in the same way we dress up our bodies with clothes and perhaps for some people, with tattoos, so it's probably something just normal. speaking of which, my constantly-chipped nails are courtesy of my clumsy nature and well, obviously weak TOEnails). though i must admit that having the purpose of beautifying one's nails is extremely, extremely tempting whenever i see those fake, acrylic nails or nail art even..

at this point in time however, i'm comfortable with my natural fingertippies. nail art and fake acrylic nails should, in my opinion, be saved for the time when i can actually afford to wear them without risking any breakage whatsoever (for example, when i get back to school!) and so with so many considerations, i skipped those extras. i mean, no point going through all that pretty pretty stuff when its impractical to one's current situation and see them hurt others (children).

5 more weeks to the cruise trip :) i must've said this a thousand times in my mind already: I CAN HARDLY WAIT!~!~!~
