6th-Oct-2009 12:55 am - insane dreams
chick

Like i promised myself last night, i took a day off from school and the feeling was great. Not that i had a lot of interesting stuff to do at home. But i would think that such breaks shouldn't be taken regularly, to avoid getting bored of it too fast. Haha. K anyway my condition is much better now after a whole day's rest. woke up 3pm today and went back to sleep till dinner time. hahaa indeed v shiok. Had lots of funny dreams, one of which was about me growing a super dense mustache, and another one was about discovering loads of cash in my wallet..hahaha insane.

Losts of stuff to do for school. T.T i feel really lazy this sem, v little momentum. Honestly i get frightened sometimes just by looking at the week;s schedule. i really wonder how i'm gonna pull through. yea amazing. To everyone out there, hope u'll be coping fine this week. Love you all.

Dear eveyone,
i'm falling sick. i can totally feel it.
1st-Oct-2009 11:10 pm - skincare splurge
chick

Hey guys i bought this from sephora recently. Yea this is my, so far, most expensive skincare ever!! That's not because i'm rich or a spoilt girl! hahaha..But anw i do have a bloated, sometimes saggy skin problem. Really sad, hur. Its partly cos i'm born with chubby cheecks and water retention issues ard the cheek area. And of course, it's been made worse due to loads and loads of staying up late (blame it on studio! :p )

i'm kinda tired today so i'll have a short blog on it. I'll just post what the product claims to do first:

it
-refines cheeks and enhances the contour of cheeckboones.
-lightens the jawline and chin, reshapes the oval of the face
-reduces eye contour puffiness, opens the eyes
-refines skin texture, evens the complexion.

The most basic principle behind it is that this product aids the lymphatic circulation system and in that way, the toxins are drains out faster and more effeciently. The main active ingredients are:

wheat proteins (ressponsible for the firming action), parsely and some vitamin C derivative (promises a longer-lasting action)

There is a small booklet which shows you a special massage that can be used to work together with the lotion.
So...what's my verdict on the product?

I would say i think this thing works! Maybe not drastic changes but i do notice that my face shape is more obvious now with less saggy cheecks. Of course when i'm extremely exhuasted at the end of a long day, i'll still look tired. i mean this is not a magic portion. But after i came back home, washed my face and during my skincare routine, i apply this with a massage, my face immediately looks so much better, much younger looking! Also, i feel this actually helped in refining my skin too. My skin is more smooth, pores slightly smaller and softer after the application. Anw, regarding the massage, i've read reviews in other places saying that the massage is really tedious and is such a chore. However, personally i don't really agree. i mean consider how lazy a person i am, the massage isn't that bad. First of all, it doesn't even take up to 3 min. And the massage is just a gentle pressing motion, that means you just hold your face in ways drawn in the booklet and stay still. You don;t have to move ur hands at all to keep rubbing or whatsoever. A perfect quiet time!

So far, i'm satisfied with the product. It has a nice smell, too. But yea, i do agree that its a little pricy (S$94). However, i think if it really slows down ur skin's aging process, its worth it (yea, at least for me). i'll continue use this product and see if it'll continue to work on my skin ;p

p/s anw i got 2 small samples from the BA. They are both the Clarins HydraQuench Smoothing Gel. Its some moisturing gel specially made for hot climate. So far i'm really loving it. It doesnt clog pores, light and very hydrating. i'll consider getting it in the full size. will have a review on it if i get it eventually.

As a beauty product enthusiast, i like to read up on different products, lay my hand on them and test them out, Eventually i would like to share my discoveries to people who share the same interest as me. This entry is on my recent purchase from Watsons.
So as you know, the previous term has finally ended and like usual, during the last week, i stayed up rushing for deadlines. I didn't sleep for 2 days to get my project done and my skin condition was disastrous with redness, little bumps, pimples. and not to mention saggy-ness. BTW i have combination skin, it can get rather sensitive when i'm under stress :(

I realised that when i was young, i still could afford to be depressed for a while. But at my age right now, i no longer dare to touch it even by a bit. I was reading a novel yday but couldn't carry on cos it was too depressing. The novel was great and was one of much depth but i ended up playing country story on facebook, just to distract myself from the book. The thing is that, i used to like such books that make me think a lot but nowadays i feel happier to be a little mundane and be in touch with life. Worse or better? i don't know. Myabe i'm getting older. I guess certain things are not meant for me to keep dwelling on.

Sometimes i guess i still enjoy feeling that "little girl" inside me. i wanna feel papmered, wanna be careless..sometimes certain clips from the past would just come back..little little nonsensical things that i did, which were not significant in any way, just bring me so much nostalgia.

Hey guys i'm having difficulty falling asleep! After i've tried, for 1 hour, numerous ways of trying to induce some sleepiness in me, i decide to give up. Blame it on the gulping down of the red tea and green tea this afternoon. Anw, steph is a happy girl today :) Let's just hope she fall asleep whithin the next one hour. :D

Just a checklist for myself
<3 )
Current fav song:
Ave Maria by Beyonce (She has a great voice!)

School has started and is moving fast. Like usual, it never fail to challenge me, mentally, physically, emotionally. Trying to grab on here n there, but i guess nothing beats holding onto the Lord. Learning and learning, so much to be learnt. Sometimes too many things on my mind that i can't even organise my thoughts and talk (Yea, its embarrasing especially during a presentation, when u loop n loop and the tutor would only think of u as being defensive). I guess its really important to listen to your inner voice and learn to do things at an appropriate pace. Once again, if He is with you, who can be against you :)

p/s Friday shopping was nice. Bought a pretty pretty organizer and a pair of denim tights.
