*breathless*

So yeah. Im waiting for the day internet gets installed into this house. So yeah. Thats all!

PSSSTTTTTTT...

I know i'm kinda late and most probably totally outdated. But here's the thing, I've always heard of this product from the beauty gurus on Youtube and even the make up reviews online and I have always wanted to get my hands on this product..

So let me show you something!



When makeup gurus tell you that this thing work, oh hell yeah it does! I have tried everything from L'oreal, Garnier, Biotherm, Clean and Clear, Clearasil, you name it, i've most probably tried it. Why did I venture out to so many brands when, first of all its definitely not advisable?

Well, you see i'm an eyeliner person. I can go out of the house without any makeup on as long as my eyes are lined. It is rarely (near to 0) that one will catch me out of the house without my eyeliner on.

I'm sure many of you who wears eyeliner, either liquid, pencil or gel often have this problem where the kohl isn't fully removed. This applies to removal of mascara as well.

The PONDS cold cream comes in a tub about the size of the large size nutella spread. But the beauty of it is that, you don't even have to use a hell lot of it to get your make up off. and one layer of application (even though thin) is more than sufficient to fully remove your make up. On top of that, it has a moisturizer after effect and therefore allowing you to have a choice of applying your own moisturizer or not.

I've been using the PONDS cold cream for a month now and I have not had any pimple breakouts from it. The smell is rather pleasant, it has the smell of the NIVEA hand lotion + a more cucumber-ish smell. So its actually a rather soothing scent, if i may say so. On top of that, i have not really created a huge dent in the pot and I go out on weekends to clubs with full make up on. So that speaks alot.

But to any of you who still prefer a liquid form of make up remover/ deep cleanser, the makeup remover from SASA is a must to get then.


This thing comes in a few flavours/scent: Chamomile, Rose and Green Tea.

However, comparing the price of the SASA make up remover and the PONDS cold cream, i would say that the PONDS cold cream is definitely more cost friendly. Besides, its not easy for everyone to get hold of the SASA make up remover anyways. Especially if you're in a non-asian country.

And looking at how little you need it per application, the PONDS Cold Cream will definitely outlast SASA Makeup remover anytime!

So, if you're ever looking for a deep cleanser cum make up remover and you're at a shelf with the PONDS Cold Cream staring out at you, I would say..

Do not hesitate, just get it! It'll be a buy that's totally worth it!! =D

LOOKING BACK AT EAST ASIA

I was looking back at my entries.. I realise I didnt even post up photos from Beijing. Sad isn't it? The 2months that literally changed my life and I didn't have a pictorial post on it! DAMMIT!

10 days in Singapore was such a rush before having to fly back to Adelaide for Uni. SAD SAD! I swear its the uploading of all that albums on facebook that took up approximately 8hours left me tired. It feels as though i've been to war sorting out pictures. LOL!

But I think I should post up an entry! for old times sake. For memories. For friendship.

So i'll just end this entry with one pic first. I promise.. there will be more to come!


I should stop procrastinating and finish up my essays. Its somewhat overdue and I need to pack my room to move out this sunday! YAY NESS and hello geekdom since uni will literally be at my doorstep! YIKES!

Don't tell anyone pple! I'm a closet nerd and that's that! =D

Oh, and I have this itch to change my blogskin. Its been what? 7years with the same skin? Or maybe lesser. Bottom line, Its been too long.

PRODUCTION NIGHT

Another wedding to plan for.

Its just like another production. Lights. Camera. Action.

How I miss that adrenaline rush! As the lights come on, and you focus everything on your co-actor, you look out into the audience and you see nothing but a black mass. But you know its a full house out there. It always is.

You hear the random gasps as slaps were exchanged before you.

You hear the occasional sobs reminding you that you're not crying for yourself anymore. You're not crying alone.

You feel yourself drifting away from whatever that defines you and you feel an image of yourself looking at you from the sidelines.

You could be anything, anyone you allow yourself to be. You could allow your deepest secrets to be revealed but no one will take it seriously. The beauty of that.

Or maybe its the busy-ness that I miss. Crafting of sets, costumes and props hunting, lighting meetings, stage managers briefing, make up decisions. The auditions, the casting, the rehearsals, the emotions.

Or maybe its the creativity that I miss. The stage blocking. The vision you have in your mind as you type furiously onto your computer or scribble unto your notepad as a 6page scene unfolds before you. The smile carved on your face after you saved the final approx. 50page script knowing that you're gonna send it for printing the following day to be distributed at cast meeting.

Or maybe.. its just plainly the people that we miss. The good old people who stand by your side. Who supported you through thick and thin. Who had those late night post rehearsals suppers and early morning pre directorial meeting breakfasts with you. The people you meet while you're completing a project. The characters you'll have to deal it.

Its like a distant memory. Especially now, when you've left it all behind and appear to be so far away. So distant sometimes you question yourself of its authentication.

See. A wedding prepartion is just like that. A production. Only with drama of a different kind. *smiles at bride-to-be*

The Conversation.

Mom: I've reached a point in my life.
Me: What point?
Mom: You know.. that point where everyone i know is either sick or dying?
Me: In that case, I have reached a point in my life too..
Mom: What point?
Me: That point where nearly everyone i know is either attached, engaged, married, expecting or is already a parent.
Mom: *sighs* Time really flies.

When I'm here, i dont feel it. Heck. Sometimes I even forget I'm turning 25 this year. Nobody here cares about your age. Nobody here cares that you're waddling slowly to get to your destination. Maybe some people will not think that I'm waddling coz I have work experience under my belt. But, in Singapore's context, I'm definitely waddling. I think waddling would be considered fast. I think i'm like slugging behind. yeah. Slugging.

Then I turn on facebook and I see all these engagement photos my friends are posting up, their wedding preparations shoutouts, their expecting bellies updates and pictures of their kids. I really do feel as though I'm in a different world altogether. I'm no longer in that world. You know, that world where everyone is setting up their life.

Truthfully, I love my life right now and there's nothing I will do to change it. I love my social life. I'm beginning to love where I am. As shocking as it may sound to some. I'm loving it here. Which as a result makes me scared about what's gonna happen next year. The fact that I may get it and I may not. but hey. I know myself better than that. I should therefore give myself a little more credit.

But I really do feel as thought I'm slipping away from what I use to consider as familiar. Its only been 2 FULL years going on to 3 and I already feel like the outsider looking in. Amazing. I'm not going to complain, I can't complain. For, I have made this choice.

I should really start on my assignment before its all overdue. Seriously. Especially since I'm hoping to move house next week, i wouldnt wanna drag all these reference books all over the place. I should just finish it all and not procrastinate since my major essays have a higher word count than whatever i'm doing right now.

Peace out.

People watching.

People watching has currently been added to my list of favourite past times. Eating alone no longer meant that I had to eat quickly and run off. It now meant that I could eat slowly and watch the antics of the people in my current surrounding.

People on dates and in love that I can practically see hearts floating abouve their head.

People on dates but not in love. Now, that's another story. ha.

Kids. Self-explanatory. I classify rowdy teenagers as kids too.. -.-

The ringing laughter of toddlers and their toothless grins that never fail to melt hearts.

What does one think about? What is running though their heads? Here I am watching from the other side. From a perspective that they will never see. The outsider. Amazing, really.

A man walks by with strides that allows the gentle breeze to flow through his hair. Long flowing hair. Sometimes, I wonder. How do men have better looking long hair than us girls? Most probably they don't put as many styling products as an average girl? heh.

Currently munching on Oporto fries. I love Oporto so much better better than Macs me thinks. No idea when I'm gonna finish the fries though. bleargh~
