I guess these are the common names that you will hear among your pals. And YES~ its indeed scary BECAUSE, they are the ones that issue you the freaking summon for driving fines like parking , coupon, blah blah blah.....

The bf is a regular victim... maybe consider him as super sway....
Example: he don't put the parking coupon as he thought maybe a while so he left as it is. BUT...... just 2 mins, yea late for that 2 mins, he KENA~ LOL... i took the white slip of paper and i look at him..

"wah lao you damn sway lah~ Fatimah just put this *waving the slip* like 2 mins ago!!?!?!"

[Tutorial] DIY nail art tutorial for the noobs~ FLORAL

Hi peep, how ya?

Just like my title of the post~

I'm sooo excited to share my nail art ideas for the VERY FIRST TIME!!! whoooohoooo~
I've always wanted to do a tutorial or probably after some encouragement from my friends~ i decided to............................................................

Soooo, long story short and LETS GOING!!!

MY VERY FIRST TUTORIAL will be the design that I always do for myself~
and its... TADA~~~


OK, no name for it~ shall call it FLORAL then~
So here are the step by step instructions:



MATERIALS:
1) Base colour nail polish ( used black)
2) Stamping colour nail polish (used white)
3) Stamping tools ( I bought a decades ago... you probably can find it in bugis or Gmarket)
4) a Magical nail polish remover PEN!!!!! (from Sephora... I tell you its damned good)


STEP 1:


As usual basics, shape, file and apply base coat.

STEP 2:

Trick for the sharp slant edge by using SCOTCH TAPE!!!!

Paste the scotch tape in any direction you prefer (left or right) to prevent excessive nail polish from staining the unnecessary areas.
(NOTE: tape the scotch tape on fabric first so that it is not too sticky~)

STEP 3:


Apply 2 layers of base coat. Make sure its all nicely covered with nail polish~


STEP 4:


Remove the scotch tape SLOWLY after complete dry. Not to worry if there are excessive nail polish because........
We are going to use the MAGICAL PEN remover!!!!


SEE~ nicely trimmed!!!!!

STEP 5:

Stamp the design you desire on the slanted edge...... this point, i used a floral type of design to match with it.....

STEP 6:


LASTLY, after the stamping design is dried, seal the nail with a top coat for the glossy complete finish.


THE END!!!!


EASY?? No worries if you don't get it. Feel free to drop me a comment below if you have any questions!!!

P.S : please let me know your thoughts for this tutorial.... if its clear?? or maybe its easier with videos? ok??? thanks~

TATA....

I LOVE dance!!!!

Sorry dearest for going missing~
ok~ I know I saw a thick dust accumulating here...I will try to clear the "dust" soooon~ haha.

This gonna be wordy~ if you are tired, I suggest you revisit later in the day!!! BUT must remember TO COME BACK AND VISIT!!!!!

As some of you know, I went back to dance AGAIN!!! After stopping for about 1 year plus??? Hmmmm.... Ok.. My dance life is pretty hectic??!? Messed up??!!? And inconsistent??!

Abit of history...............……
……....
……...
….....
……
……
……
…
..
.


I started dancing since 17 years old??? I went through all the courses from the basic... For hip hop, locking, lyrical and lastly REGGAE!!!! Or yah, and JK pop....

Non-stop, 2-3 times a week.... Till I'm 20 and I stopped! *tragic mistake I made* due to school work and follow by a crazily busy job........

I resume dance class when I'm 21... On and off classes and super bad attendance....

AND I STOPPED again *foolish move again*

And NOW, I resume AGAIN!!

Early this year, I started dancing again.... And I restarted my reggae basic from scratch~ I fell really deep in love with reggae..LIkE SERIOUSLY in love that I can give up everything for dance~

From there, I know a bunch of cool peeps that share the same love and we really click damn well.... And they really motivates me ALOT~ I love them!!

We attend courses together even till the second level, follow by the open classes.... We meet up every thursday for ONE dance.... REGGAE!!! And we pushes each other and trained up just for one performance.....

Da RECITAL......

Finally the "A" day came.... After weeks of sessions and practices, da day finally came last Sunday... And we gave our best shot~ hoping to be selected for the performance...

We are worried and we supported for each other.... And it ended with a nice subway meal...haha....

And sooooo....the result was out on monday night.... Everyone of us is so worried till we are so super active on fb and twitter that day, waiting for the results....

IT CAME OUT!!

Unfortunately I'm in the gym, and so I checked my hp after my exercise and to my surprise I got a missed call and a few messages from them.....

"are you ok" it wrote.....and my heart sank..... And I felt like crying....

OMG...I wasn't selected?!?!! Despite all the hard-work, I'm still not selected....I'm at my brim of giving up dance once more....

thinking at that point in time.... "so it's proven, I CAN'T DANCE!"

I'm so depressed......very......I have no mood..nothing.. because, I'm lost to something that I loved and I willing to give up many other things for...

That night was a tiring night for me......I cried and cried....and I couldn't sleep until very late...it is really heart broken....and disappointing.....

I really love dance and it's how my reggae peeps influence me to love dance.... But the result is so much hurting that I feel like giving up....

I still feel the sadness whenever I heard a reggae song..... BUT I know and I will not stop DANCING!!

It maybe just this one time that I did not succeed..... But I'll try to make the many more other time successful~ and yes I can do.... Simply because.........

I love you!! DANCE and REGGAE!!!!

Nuff said..... I just want to rant my sadness despite it been days after the result is out..... I'll train harder and harder next time.......

Thanks for completing this super duper long post of rants......
Re-visit me again!!!!

See ya.......

The power of make-up + photoshop!!

Wow~ I did not blog for A MONTH!!! Good Job! NOT~

Nope, not updating any missing in action stuff but I'm gonna traumatize readers after MIA-ing for a month..LOL~

*W A R N I N G*
Weak heart kindly please close this window and wait till my next update~

So........................... my blog title is straight forward, I'm gonna do a "serious" comparison after a friend of mine said i look totally different without make-up.. *angry*




Don't be surprised, I actually look like this without make-up and photoshop. Ya I know, its a total turn off and I look like I din sleep for 1/2 year~

HAHAHAHA~

Anyway, sometimes I'm so lazy to put on make-ups i will simply wear my specs, thinking naively that i can cover as much dark circles as possible.




Hmmmm... obviously, it do not help much~

Women loves to look prettier like I do~ and I'm totally well aware that I'm not good looking but at least I want myself to look obviously more presentable than the first picture!!

So.....MAKE-UP is IMPORTANT!!!



SEE~ do you see a different now?
This is not any dramatic make-up just a light one with concealer, falsies and eyeliner. But there is already a very great different!! (well i think so, you can disagree)
I swear that i did not photoshop any of the photos above except for its lighting effects!!!

Look at those eyes!! the dark patch is so much lighten and less puffy~

CORRECT ?!?!?! AGREE??!?!!?!

and make-ups definitely make me more confident when i step out of my house~
Do i look a bit more appealing than the first picture NOW??!?! LMAO~


Next, PHOTOSHOP!!!!
Everyone knows about photoshop and its importance~

It defines and finishes every photo nicely and everyone in it to look more appealing and swee... I got to admit most of my photos are photoshopped~ (who don't) unless I'm super lazy ~



SEE~
After photoshopped!
It's exactly the same photo as the above that i edited.. Not very well done i must admit but look~ see the difference and the dramatic change from the first pic?

MY EYES ARE BIGGER!! AND I'M SLIMMER!!!

I'm plump, my eyes are small and my nose is huge~ and i don't wish to do plastic surgery, not because i disagree with PS but I wanna look like how i was born! be it ugly or turn off~ I will try my best to make it better with make-ups if there is a need!!

I know its fake, but its the only way to make myself prettier~ so why not? I can't be pretty in real life, but at least i can make myself pretty in the virtual world!! AGREE??!?!

*Hopes to live virtually*


Now look at this:



So what do you think? Before is better? or after?

I know its still not as beautiful but compare to before at least its more presentable nao?

So people~ Don't be lazy!!
MAKE-UP is important~ PHOTOSHOP is as important too!!!
