Weird Dream, After exam

Yesterday (Tuesday), I so wanted to change my sleeping habit so that it's actually normal. For this past month, I've been sleeping at 6-9am and wake up at 2-3pm. Once I slept at 11pm but I woke up at like 2am. My body is telling me that it's nap time, not sleeping time.

So today, I went swimming. I so wanted to go swimming the past week but it rained every evening so I can't go. So today I managed to go swimming because it didn't rain. I only manage to swim like 6 laps in total because I was a little tired and also I didn't swim for so long, I lost some of my strength.

After swimming, went to have dinner with Adrian then we went to library to study. I was so damn tired I didn't study, I just went online to read the news and read National Geographic magazine. There are Reader's Digest too!!!! There are magazines that consist of like 1 year's worth of issues compiled into 1 hardcover book. Unfortunately, we cannot borrow them unless we see the manager and needed it very urgently.
It was so cold in the library and made me soooo sleepy so I went back to sleep at 10.30pm. I was so happy I can sleep early but then woke up at like 2am because of these stupid dream. I had two dream which I don't remember the sequence.

Dream #1:
I went to Genting Highlands with Adrian and we were in like a shopping mall there which looks much more posh than those in Genting. Then I saw my uncle at the escalator, he had long hair and it was damn damn damn ugly. He was so damn mean, he want to report to my dad that I have a bf. Then I said he will be dead if he told.

Then I met one of my aunt. [That aunt teaches yoga in IBM Cyberjaya so she always join me, my sis and Adrian for dinner (This is real, not in the dream)]. Then I remembered talking to my aunt that that's my dream.

Dream #2:
This is the dream that made me so damn angry. I found out that Adrian went to some pasar malam in KL and walk walk with his friends and didn't call me or tell me. He only told me a few days later which made me more mad. I was so mad because now we hardly go out and my life is so boring. He went with his 3 friends, Esther, Helen and Eva. I've only met Esther real life. It's so weird because I think Esther doesn't mix with the other 2 but he called all of them, oh well.

I was so damn mad because he didn't bring me out. Then in my dream I didn't say that I'm so angry, I just kept it to myself. If it's real life, I will bising like mad!!!!! I will say everything I feel to him, 100%. I was so damn angry from the dream, almost waking up and when I was awake. But I wasn't mad after a while.

..........................................................................

Today is Adrian's last day of exam!!!!!!!! So it means we can go out. Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!! Only go out eat somewhere further than Cyberjaya, not go shopping because my exam ends on Friday. I was suppose to study on Tuesday night, after my Tuesday paper but I didn't because I was so damn tired. Even my friend doesn't want to study on Tuesday but I wanted but didn't manage.

I so can't wait for my exam to end, OMG OMG OMG. Then on Friday, after my paper, I will go and meet Yee Mei and Jia Lynn. Yee Mei is leaving for UK on Friday and she really wants to meet Adrian. So I should plan the outing to be in Sunway Pyramid because Adrian knows how to get there. I feel so bad that she has been back home for 4 months and have not met Adrian.

Sugaring

Last weekend, I tried to make sugar to sugar my hair from my body. Sugaring is a technique where sugar is used to remove hair. There's 2 techniques to use this sugar. For both technique, apply some powder before using. 1st technique is the sugar heated up a little to and applied to skin and used like waxing.

The next technique is called ball technique. I've been using this technique because I don't have cloth. A ball of sugar is used. 1 video said knead the sugar for 5 minutes before using. Knead until the sugar is no more transparent. But you can do it without kneading though. Hold the ball of sugar with your finger tips and apply it on your skin on the opposite direction of your hair growth. You have to apply it a few times to get a thin even layer. Then, pull off all the sugar with the remaining sugar on your finger tips in the direction of your hair growth. It's quite hard to master it and I don't think you really understand what I'm talking about. You should just watch the video.

When I use the ball technique, I don't know why I can't use it for my whole body. The sugar becomes like caramel and not transparent and gooey. It can stick but when you pull it out, there's a trail of sugar and it's quite hard to sugar. I've just watched more youtube videos, I hold the sugar with 2 fingers and pull it out. The sugar is suppose to stick to your finger tips and use the remaining sugar on your finger tips and pull the sugar off your skin. Takes practice.

The sugar is easy to cook. It's just 1 unit of sugar, 1/8 unit of lime/lemon/orange juice and 1/8 unit of water. I used 1 cup sugar, 1/8 cup lime juice and 1/8 cup water. Most youtube videos uses 2 cups sugar, 1/4 cup lemon juice and 1/4 cup water.

I suggest you read some and watch a few youtube videos before making the sugar. Took me forever and many tries to get it right. Even now my sugar is not right. It's overcooked and too brown and hard (keras).

My sugaring is not very effective because I've altered the recipe abit because I reboil it so many times, I added some water. But it's still fine. I can say the sugar I made is quite effective because the hair really cabut out but there are some that are so stubborn that cannot come off.

I watched some home videos and some beauty salon videos. Both are the same. Here's the videos on how to make the sugar and 1 on how to use it on your body.

Channel Nail Polish

Just now in Subang Parade, me and my sis went to try on Channel nail polish. OMG!! The texture is so good. I'm not a big fan of nail polish so I never try all the brands. The most expensive brand I've tried is Revlon. Revlon is really good. The texture is good and nice to apply. My sis bought the Revlon nail polish which is scented when dry. Haha.

The Channel nail polish texture is so good, now like Elianto, so lousy. The Channel nail polish is so good that I applied many layers and it's still nice. The colour is very even, which means parts that has more layer than other looks the same and it dries without lines. The finishing is real good, so smooth and it dries so damn fast, not like elianto. Elianto takes at least 30 mins to completely dry, the surface and inside. When the surface is dry but the inside is not, you hit your nail then the nail polish smudge or dent. The Channel nail polish dries up so fast that the surface and inside dries and you cannot dent or smudge it because it dries up totally and it's hard.

I don't know the colour name because I randomly tried it.

My sis decided to buy a Channel nail polish because it's so damn good and many people love it. It cost RM70. For me, I want to buy a new lipgloss. I have 1 which is free from the makever from Clinique, it's ok but I hate the wand applicator. It makes my lips look swollen and not suitable for me. I like the brush lipgloss. During the makeover I used that and my lips looks so pouty and damn nice.

So I will buy a brush lipgloss from the counter. I want to buy 1 good one because I always buy those cheap ones and don't like it in the end and hardly use it so I have to throw it away after 1 year. So I should buy an expensive one and use it all the time. I generally hate buying low quality items because it's a waste of money. I will eventually hate it or it will spoil.

Obsessed with bikinis and lingerie

Went to Subang Parade just now. I saw La Senza panties in Parkson, it cost RM89 for 5 pieces so it's RM18 per piece. It's actually ok price. Triumph is also so expensive. Normal nice bra cost at leat RM70 nowdays. If it's RM40, that means it's damn ugly and low quality. Even offer price hardly reach RM40. Offer bras cost at least RM50 from triumph.

La Senza bras are 3 for RM169 which is RM 56 per piece of Rm 139 for 2 pieces which is RM69.5 per piece. That is the normal price for bras now. Not like last time, RM40 is expensive. Inflation. Now it's RM60. Last time RM50 is so much money. Now RM50 is so little.

I remembered triumph sold sloggi panties, not those in the packet ones. They sold RM30 for 3 pieces of bikini panties or RM40 for 3 pieces of boylegs. The packet panties were also cheap that time (few months ago). They were all RM75 but some are 6 for RM75, 5 for RM75 or 4 for RM75. So cheap. So regret never buy the non-packet sloggi panties because they were nice.

I also would suggest buying sorella. It's cheap and good. Their seamless panties are only RM15 per piece. It's quite cheap compared to other brands. I don't like scarlet. It goes into your butt. I once bought their seamless panty for RM10 and the lining came off when I removed the pantyliner. The glue is not strong.

So in the end, I would suggest buying a little more expensive panties and bras because they last long and because of that, you will have alot of panties and bras at one time. This is because you don't throw old ones but keep them so you have alot at once. I love to buy lingerie expecially panties but I don't buy those cheap cheap ones la.

Now I have like 40 panties and 30 bras. I still feel I want more. Typical girl. The number of panties and bras are those that I only wear, not those that I don't wear. I keep some bras since like 5 years ago. I have 1 triumph bra which is 7 years old and it's not loose but of course the material got thinner thanks to the maid who took revenge by spoiling clothes.

I also love bikinis. I regret buying my current one because if I never buy, I will but Victoria's Secret's bikinis because they look so nice and it was so cheap few weeks ago before they brought in new collection. Top is like USD9.99 and so is bottom. They will deduct 40% off total bill but shipping is not worth. USD27.99 to Malaysia. They use those UPS, DHL. Of cos la. Must keep reputation mah. So want new bikinis. Never mind, go Bandung and buy new bikinis and panties. heheheh

New Post Finally!!!

I know many people are waiting for me to come up with new posts. Its been a few weeks since I'd posted. I've been very lazy to post and also busy with assignments. Finals are around the corner.

So last few weeks, I've been so obsessed with sewing so I sewn my very first dress. It took me 2 nights because the first night, the dress looks ugly then the next day I removed the stitches and resew. So now it looks better.

I had a post on 28th August but never posted it because I don't have the photo so here was my post for then:

Well for me, I've never sew a doll dress before. These few days I've been so obsessed with sewing. I took out the sewing machine and started sewing the table runner but it's not a good material to sew because it's slippery and hard to sew.

This afternoon, I spent the whole time drawing out pattern for bikinis (only bikini top). I got it from this website http://www.patternschool.com/?page_id=309. I also downloaded some patterns from this site http://www.burdastyle.com/.

Tonight, I sew my very first dress. I took my really, really old pyjamas and sew. I remember having it when i was like 10. Thats 11 years ago. There are no more prints on the pyjama and it has holes at the shoulder and the material is already very thin.

It took me 5 hours to complete the dress because I'm a first-timer and I'm not skilled. I so lazy to explain la. It's so complicated to explain and people won't understand so I'll just save my time.
