I've finally finished my 3rd semester papers.
Still, 1 more retake paper to work on.
Let the adrenaline pump.
Another 33 days to travel, which is quite fast.
It's like I've yet to receive 5 parcels for the event and haven't finish shopping.
Well, maybe people don't even know a thing.
Let me tell you, nothing is easy.
Not even playing a guitar.
For one to pick up a hobby, it requires time, effort, probably an amount of money.
How much, it depends.
A 3-digit figure has been spend just for me to attend this event.
Sounds pro, but no.
If you know what is all for, you might say I spend a lot on unnecessary things.
Well no one is to be judged for the things they do, so don't judge me before you make me start judging you.
Soon after majors I'll be working part time.
At least to earn some pocket money for myself while I'm down in KL.
Do come and spot me?
I've told quite many people where I'm working.
Till my next update.

October update.
In the middle of trials.
Tomorrow is the final day so yeah, slight relief of the hectic syllabus.
A highlight of my plan after my majors: Attending Comic Fiesta 2013.
Just in case you don't know, the tickets are almost sold out just only a few days of release.
Gladly I managed to get mine one month earlier all thanks to my buddy. :)
Travelling in 73 days.

Liebster Blog Award
-Will be making my own Liebster logo because I don't feel like stealing pictures for this.-
Should have written this post quite some time ago.
Anyway thanks to Wan Chi and Zelyn for nominating :)
Starting off this post with a very formal introduction.
The Liebster Award is given to up and coming bloggers who have less than 200 followers. The meaning ; Liebster is German and means sweetest, kindest, nicest, dearest, beloved, lovely, kind, pleasant, valued, cute, endearing and welcome.
I guess less than 200 followers is the only criteria I've fulfilled...?
Let's move on to the rules upon your nomination:
1. Post 11 random facts about yourself
2. Answer 11 questions that were asked by the blogger who nominated you
3. Choose 11 bloggers with less than 200 followers for the award and link them in your post
4. Create 11 questions of your own for them
5. No tag backs, means you cannot tag the person who nominated you.
Here's a not-so-recent picture of myself because the other pictures don't look as good as this one.
11 random facts about Alice Rawkxz
1. I love the colour blue, any shades will do. This is also why I love the sky and the ocean (or pool).
2. I'm a righty but have a more powerful left hand. (That's why I suffer much during injection.)
3. I have a sweet tooth, preferably chocolate and candies.
4. I mix with my juniors better than my classmates, it's not saying that I'm not close with my classmates but I just have no idea why.
5. I'm 158cm tall. For once I aimed to grow up to 160cm but as I hit my age limit I acknowledge that it's no longer possible (even though it's 2cm apart).
6. I'm an Aries and I believe in the horoscope.
7. I'm very picky in certain types of food, for example chilli, eggs and fish.
8. I started stepping into pubs at the age of 7, drinking alcohol at the age of 9 (but that doesn't mean I'm alcoholic) and playing table pool (which many people mistake it as snooker) at the age of 10, all thanks to my dad.
9. I love music and sports. In music I play guitar and drums; in sports I'm currently doing Taekwondo, at random times I play basketball and swim.
10. I love to travel. If I'm given enough budget, I'll travel at least once a week.
11. I'm the eldest among cousins of the same age despite I was born in April.
Since I'm nominated by 2 people, I receive 2 sets of different questions.
Here's my answers to Chi's questions.
1. What's your favourite book?
A: To be frank I seldom read. However "Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus" by John Gray is one of my pick.
2. If you had one day left to live, what would you do?
A: I would meet up with a few very close buddies and do crazy stuff. Even it's the last day of life, I hope it's memorable and that I'm enjoying till the last minute.
3. Describe your ideal boyfriend.
A: Physically, he has to be at least my brother's height (166cm), fit and involved in certain sports. Personality wise, caring and humorous at the same time, but most importantly be loyal and honest in relationship.
4. How would you describe the way you dress?
A: Casual. I'm often seen in T-shirt / tank top and denim shorts / beach pants.
5. What do you do when you are sad?
A: Most of the times I'll call up my best friend (whom everyone knows, my "daughter") and have a long conversation, usually at least 1 hour. At times I'll just listen to emo songs or rant on Twitter.
6. Where is your favourite place to go?
A: If it's in school, definitely the basketball court and stadium. Malls wise, top preference will be Gurney Plaza (including Gurney Paragon).
7. What phone are you using?
A: HTC Sensation XE and Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini.
8. What are you obsessed with?
A: Elecoldxhot, anything blue, denim, camouflage, pastel, punk.
9. Who do you look up to and why?
A: First person will be my dad, he's my greatest inspiration and motivation in life. Second person is Master Aloysius Montano, my head Taekwondo instructor. The reason I look up to him is he has always been a humble person despite all his great achievements, and many of us including myself treat him as our dad other than our blood-tied father. :)
10. Favourite movie and character from the movie.
A: This is more awkward than asking me to list my favourite book because I rarely step into the cinemas. If I have to pick one, it'll be Titanic and the main character Jack.
11. What can't you stand?
A: I can't stand people who're not punctual and bossy. Matter wise, I can't stand untidy handwriting.
Next, questions by Zelyn.
1. 1 favourite memory.
A: That's a tough pick. To me every memory is precious. The most recent one will be going on a private date with my best friend (a.k.a my daughter).
2. 2 favourite clothing shops.
A: H&M, SubZero. I like the others but these appear to be my top 2.
3. 3 things you would want to do before you die.
A: Travel around the world with buddies, living with my besties, adopt a Husky.
4. 4 favourite people.
A: Choosing only 4 is a pain. Here goes: Master Aloysius Montano, Sora, Zoe Sheen, Hui Teng.
5. 5 places you would like to go.
A: (In random order) Paris, Dubai, Taiwan, Japan, Switzerland. Actually there are more places I would love to explore.
6. 6 ideal houses.
A: Hmm, instead of 6 ideal houses I would change it to 6 particulars of my ideal house, provided I have enough budget to do so. #1, a swimming pool; #2, a sound-proof room to place my musical instruments (a.k.a music room); #3, huge glass panes; #4, an underground garage (which sounds ambitious); #5, a fashion corner (or room) where I store my clothes, nail polishes and accessories; #6, a fitness corner.
7. 7 reasons why you started blogging.
A: Guess I can't think of that many reasons D: Anyway, I started blogging around 2009, just to express my feelings through words; or rather I would say, to find a place for me to rant. Strange fact is that, I wasn't inspired by anyone to start blogging during that time.
8. 8 favourite Youtubers.
A: cutepolish, MissJenFabulous, KurtHugoSchneider, WongFuProductions, JinnyboyTV, nigahiga, 4JCBrothers, kaotsun.
9. Describe yourself in 9 words.
A: I rock my own world in my own way.
10. Starbucks or Coffee Bean?
A: Definitely Starbucks, if you know me. :)
11. Are you satisfied with what you have and who you are? If yes, why? If no, why?
A: 80:20. Considering myself living better than the people in African countries, I'm satisfied. Everyone is different in their own ways, no one is to be judged. Being the special one and only me, it's good enough. All that's left is to push myself harder to be a better me, that's why the 20% is there.
Next up, 11 bloggers I nominate. This is tough too as not many friends blog nowadays, it's all over Facebook.

UHS 2nd Closed Taekwondo (WTF) Poomsae Championship + Present Hunting + CF Mini Day 1
Pre-script #1 : Excitements ahead (especially 2nd part).
Pre-script #2 : Picture-filled post. -Some to be updated later.-
Pre-script #3 : Multi-language post.
Kicked start the day with only 4 hours' sleep. *Oi!*
Before heading off to UHS for competition, I went back to school for a short while.
Rather saying I didn't want to reach too early, I wanted to spend more time with my daughter and buddies.
Totally had to step on the accelerator hard after I left school.
Dropped Yew at Paragon around 7:50a.m. then rushed to UHS.
Managed to reach sharp at 8a.m. phew.
It's great to be back with the #chonghongarmy, but with mixed feelings.
Why did we have to compete among each other D:
That's not fair and hurts so bad, we were one during nationals and states. :(
It was sort of awkward at the early stages of competition.
Not going to mention the issues it's just, hmm.
Short break became half an hour, a legit way to delay time.
Right, I was late for my date with my dear daughter and Yew. *Iish.*
Got bronze. :) Fair enough as I wasn't too prepared then caught myself off guard.
Great job to all medalists.
The day ended with a group photo but then I had to leave earlier so no #chonghongarmy photos. :(
Fetched Wey Yuh along to drop her at CAB Western Food to settle some stuff for our anniversary.
Damn the traffic I was pissed off when I drove.
So jam that I could drive using one hand then phone call on the other.
An original less than 10 minutes' journey took us double the time.
Turned out, it was just traffic whore in front of our school corridor, it was totally smooth after that.
Jeez.
Luckily daughter decided to walk and arrived in Gurney earlier. *Phew*
With event break time, Yew walked over from Paragon to accompany my daughter. *どもありがとう!*
おめでとう to Yew who's the first in line for King X Mon's calendar and postcards. :D
*I'll describe who are they further down the post, and why Japanese.*
Arrived Gurney at 12:05p.m. (which was way behind our plan).
Nevertheless found them and present hunting began.
3 of us saw a super nice watch from Tip Top Time. *Bling~*
Checked the price tag. (RM900) *Spits blood.* (Money calculation began)
We checked the price for the simpler design in both shops, turns out Tip Top Time offered a better price.
(By better I mean the price we can afford better lol.)
In the end we picked up the courage to ask if there's any discount for the RM900 watch, and guess what.
20% OFF! #successkid
We were totally stunned as I thought the maximum discount was 10%.
Definitely ON man! :)
Being lazy to drive in and out, we walked all the way back to school for lunch. *Huh?!*
Cup noodles at this hour can be all delicious haha.
While we were enjoying our so-called lunch at Summer Dessert Bakery, there's a stalker.
As we entered bakery, he sat at the table behind.
As we walked out, he came out as well then talked over his phone. #damn
We quickly escaped to Goodall to look for daughter's mum. (Taekwondo Oath #4.)
After explaining the condition to her, she was kind enough to drive us back to Paragon.
*Thanks a bunch Aunt Maggie!*
In the car, Yew received all sorts of call from different people, asking to meet her and stuff.
*Jeez? Haha.*
Too bad 3 of us didn't manage to take a picture before the go. *Nooooooooo!*
Bad luck for Paragon shoppers.
IT'S CF MINI! =DDDDDDD
Highlight of the day : King X Mon!
*In case you don't know who they are, click on the link for more info.*
Alright, now you understand why Japanese. *Why?!* You want me to hit you is it?
As we both arrived we quickly made our way through the crowd.
Met up with Yew's friends, then we rushed our way real close to the stage.
At least a 3rd row isn't that bad. :)
Didn't expect Vei Juan and Caleb to be there, met Christie also who lent Caleb's camera for me.
Before King X Mon (KM) went up to the stage for official Q&A, camera's up, capturing their faces. =D
For the day, King狂間 cosplayed as Haruka Nanase (七瀨 遙) while Mon小夢夢 cosplayed as Gou Matsuoka (松崗 江), both from Free! Iwatobi Swim Club.
Before the event I already acknowledged that King is 170cm tall in person, but didn't know she's THAT TALL. *You'll know why afterwards.*
Then there's this Chibi Mikasa on stage entertaining everybody by messing up emcee Alfred's hair with her swords + Shaun's help.

Assignment freak.
Currently one now.
I'm still on my way doing my assignment as you read this.
Just a short update.
So school holidays have been brought forward, but obviously no one is happy about it, be it students or teachers.
If we could possibly not replace our classes, it'll be much better.
Do you know 2 replacements have already cost me twice training sessions?
Told you, it's a short update.
Next update preview : Nail art for holidays.

J to the U to the L to the Y.
Posting this with my uncle's brand new MacBook Pro X)
Pre-script : Pictures will be updated after.
Not so much of an update, but here's what I've been up to so far in July:
6th and 7th : 23rd Penang REMAJA Invitation and 24th Penang Closed Invitation Taekwondo Championship 2013
4th year in a row as a helper a.k.a event announcer.
Of course, back to compete for medals after 4 years of not doing so.
For poomsae (pattern), it's quite pressuring as we were the national's 1st runner up.
When we went to check the list of order, the burden multiplied.
We will be performing last out of the 7 teams, that means only 3/7 chance of getting medals, slim.
However, even with lack of training, we had great teamwork since we started training for nationals.
Thankfully, mission accomplished when the scores were projected through the screens.
A much better score compared to nationals, and we managed to retain our silver medal.
#chonghongarmy #wedidit
Kyukpa (breaking) wise, before it's our turn, we rehearsed our plan flow for many times.
Sad fact was, we never tried rehearsing once with planks before.
Thus, mistakes were done, followed by off-beat flow.
I can still remember how depressed I was after we finished our performance, feeling all frustrated and nearly broke down in front of the crowd.
Nevertheless, a close win for bronze. :')
Thank you Master Pathi!
Needless for me to mention how close I can get with the helpers' family and instructors. :)
Glad to have celebrated Master Roy a.k.a hero's birthday like how we did 3 years ago, but this time grander.
Managed to get him a memorable present and a super huge chocolate fudge cake from Secret Recipe during our lunch break.
Yes sir, you have 1 son and 5 daughters. Haha.
Here are some behind the scene pictures during the tournament: *TO BE UPDATED*
10th and 11th : PCGHS Inter-house Basketball Competition
Back to support the Blue players again.
Well that's what I do basically every year.
Who cares if I had to sacrifice 2 days of recess and staying back? :)
It's great to have my one-year senior back in school to witness the matches.
Those good old times when we played basketball together, still remain fresh on my mind.
Can't believe it's already 3 years.
I must admit, I'm all pumped up and hyper when it comes to basketball, especially when Sora's the captain.
Therefore all the annoying cheers. >.<
Overall result, morning session got 3rd with 2 wins 2 loses, while afternoon session got champion with 4 wins.
I'm still a proud senior. :)
The loses aren't huge ones, just missed it by 1 ball per game, devastating.
So after the win yesterday, someone told nearly everyone we met that we're going dating. Haha!
I'll take it. It's a #daddydaughterduo date anyway.
Other times : ASSIGNMENT
Speaking of which, the thing I hated most when Semester 3 began.
Nevertheless, for better grades, just do it.
It's already the final semester and I ain't letting loose.
#fight #gohardorgohome
Did I mention that Semester 2 results will be released on Monday?
#terrifying.

Pre-script : Pictures will be updated after.
Not so much of an update, but here's what I've been up to so far in July:
6th and 7th : 23rd Penang REMAJA Invitation and 24th Penang Closed Invitation Taekwondo Championship 2013
4th year in a row as a helper a.k.a event announcer.
Of course, back to compete for medals after 4 years of not doing so.
For poomsae (pattern), it's quite pressuring as we were the national's 1st runner up.
When we went to check the list of order, the burden multiplied.
We will be performing last out of the 7 teams, that means only 3/7 chance of getting medals, slim.
However, even with lack of training, we had great teamwork since we started training for nationals.
Thankfully, mission accomplished when the scores were projected through the screens.
A much better score compared to nationals, and we managed to retain our silver medal.
#chonghongarmy #wedidit
Kyukpa (breaking) wise, before it's our turn, we rehearsed our plan flow for many times.
Sad fact was, we never tried rehearsing once with planks before.
Thus, mistakes were done, followed by off-beat flow.
I can still remember how depressed I was after we finished our performance, feeling all frustrated and nearly broke down in front of the crowd.

Moving on.
It's already June.
Flashing back 2013, I can say it's quite horrible for me.
Having to deal with friendship issues is just headache.
Nevertheless, things have to come to an end.
As a typical Aries, actions act faster than minds, but that doesn't mean I'm like that all the time.
When it comes to friendship, I do my best to make sure I do not mistreat anybody in an unfair manner.
I don't know about myself, but some people say I tend to be too nice to everyone.
Throughout March and April, things just didn't go well.
Since it's over I'm not going to bring up again.
Losing a 7-year friend.
At first I thought it would be painful inside, but obviously not.
So what if we aren't friends any more?
It's not like I can't live without her.
There's still people who care about me, more than they care about her.
Goodbye to somebody that I used to know, whom I now categorise her in to bitches' group.
Let's see how long you can stay bitching.
Anyway school's reopening soon.
Slowly getting my tables tidied up and stuff settled.
It seems like I have never ending business but I don't organise my time properly.
Time to switch up some good habits and prepare for the upcoming fights.
Moving on, till the end of time.

Review : Etude House Nail Polish Swatches
Pre-script: I'm posting it with my phone so I'll rearrange the pictures sooner.
So I've said I wanted to do a post on this.
Without further due, I'll start off with Look At My Cotton Candy Nails collection.
Before I tried any on myself, I did pedicure for my aunt with Dancing Ballet Shoes.
The colour's awesome, and 2 coats were opaque enough.
I never thought I would go for a pink polish, but here I went.
The next day I tried on baby blue and baby purple on myself.
I've just tried it on my thumb.
Both colours were pretty sheer with only one coat, but two coats of application definitely made the magic.
However, putting pastel colours on my nails would be awkward because I don't have matching clothes. :/
Wait till I have time for more shopping then.
For school holidays I'm applying polishes from Fashion Queen collection from Etude House I got earlier.
The first 5 days I tried Rock and Roll Baby collection.
Prior to my outing with my daughter I decided to switch up some denim feel on my fingers, which is my current manicure.
Fashion Queen Hey! JeanE collection, the one I'll never regret buying.
I also made use of the nail stickers for the first time and I received compliments for my manicure.
To save up some drying time I used the quick dry drop.
My next hunt will be Sweet Recipe Ice-cream Nails collection.
Till the next holidays, stay tuned.

Friendship?
Thinking back about the past makes me feel stupid.
You weren't good in studies.
You weren't holding any posts in co-curriculum.
You weren't mixing with friends who're all-rounded.
You weren't someone who did all homework.
You weren't a favourite among teachers.
You weren't outstanding.
You weren't taking many things seriously.
Yet, we chose to be your friend, to guide you on in life.
Didn't we treat you good enough?
Hadn't we help you all the time or else you'll be in bigger trouble?
Turned out it's like our fault instead.
I will never forget that day.
4th of March, 2013, school auditorium.
6th Formers were collecting book vouchers, you were absent for lessons, but appeared at 12+.
All you knew how was pretended you had stomach ache, then put your arm over my shoulders like you needed support, and started making up crap excuses to escape from assistant headmistress.
How kind of me that time to give you a call even after school to check if you're alright.
That was your first betrayal move.
Guess I don't have to tell the whole world about what good "deeds" you have done.
Over means over, because I don't mind.
It's not that I don't prioritise friendship, it's just that in my heart, it's no longer that important to me any more.
Memories were definitely unforgettable, but there's no way I'll move on if I don't let go.

Goodbye birthday month.
I would conclude this month as horrific, if you know what I have encountered.
Not gonna talk about it.
So, birthday.
All was fine, but some people just want to see my shocked face.
Do you people really enjoy see me being shocked or what?
By the way those surprises just enlightened some of my down moments.
You know who you are people. ♥
The duo ended up talking and meeting up more than the previous weeks, kudos to that backstabber.
Who, you ask? Told you I'm not gonna talk about it.
For now just let everything settle down.
Let bygones be bygones, and bitches will always remain bitching.
Majors in 3 weeks' time.
One last time before June I'm gonna make all the hard work pay off.
Revenge time.
Ending this post with a high hope of getting myself more occupied in the 2nd half of 2013.

Haul + Short Review : Etude House + Essence
This is going to be not-so-long.
Went to Queensbay yesterday to bank in some money.
After that with some time left I decided to check out pharmacies for nail art tools.
First I walked into Sasa.
I remembered seeing China Glaze in Gurney's branch but there ain't any here. =(
Nevertheless I found Sally Hansen's Xtreme Wear and Revlon polishes. (RM 20 each bottle)
Scrolling up and down for products, then saw Naga Nail magnetic polish collection, 2 bottles and free magnet at RM 50.
The price was okay but I'm not a huge fan of magnetic polish so I thought I would keep that budget for more colours.
Exited Sasa, I went into Guardian, then saw the wedged make up sponge, but a little bit pricey. (8 for RM 12.90)
Then I thought, maybe Watsons would give me a better deal so I visited the store.
I was randomly looking around.
Merely pointless shopping I can say until something caught my eyes.
Essence White Nail Art Pen.
Seriously I didn't know this brand was in Watsons till I witnessed it.
This nail art pen has been used by Youtubers while they paint their nails and they gave good review.
Also in Watsons, I saw a huge pack of wedged make up sponge, selling RM 19.46 for 20 pieces.
Definitely worth it, but my deskmate and I decided not to go for it just yet because we won't be using that many.
Not going to conclude much about Etude House.
I've been buying things over RM 150 during their 50% off promotion and launch of Sweet Recipe collection, but I will feel bad for not buying anything when I enter any stores.
As soon as I got home, I went on to try the nail art pen.
Holidays, please come faster. I can't wait to paint my nails.
Peace out,

Dear My Party Nails collection - DJing Show.
Just imagine you're in a disco, then you get to imagine the colours of this bottle.
It contains purple, green and silver glitter strips.
As soon as I got home, I went on to try the nail art pen.
Looks like an ordinary pen, no?
If you know how to write, you pretty much get used to this product very quickly.
Here's me trying it on my thumb.
Please ignore the line at the centre as I accidentally pumped too much ink at once.
Overall it was convenient and the drying time was absolutely amazing.
Peace out,

Blog + Haul : Gurney Plaza and Queensbay
This was totally impromptu.
Initially I didn't think of going to either Gurney or Queensbay, but ended up going both.
So after training I drove my dear along to Gurney cause she thought of checking out Etude House as well.
Here's what we both got from Etude House after half an hour:
Look At My Cotton Candy Nails - Balloons In The Sky
Look At My Cotton Candy Nails - Look At Him Looking At Her
Color Me Nude Lip Concealer
Etude House Limited Shower Kit (with purchase of > RM80 from Sweet Recipe)
SHINee's poster (with total bill of > RM30)
SHINee's postcard (with total bill of > RM50)
Naga Nail 2-way Nail Art Pen
My original plan was just to get my glue refill, but after visiting Popular, remembered that Sticky was open today I went to have a look.
When I was looking around, someone called my name (well I was frightened) and it appeared to be my junior who's working in Sticky =D
I got myself a bottle for my love towards Sticky and to celebrate its arrival in Penang.
I can still remember walking out of Sticky talking over the phone with my dear, discussing about which bottle of Sticky I should get.
Next, I headed to Etude House (once again) to check out (since the promotion hadn't ended) and here's what I got:
That's all for this post.
I wonder if I'll come up with any nail art during school holidays.
Stay tuned.

Sweet Recipe Collection Baby Choux Base - Peach
*Image adapted from fermosahouse.blogspot.com*
RM 69.90
Sweet Recipe Collection Sliced Cake Puff
*The whole thing was too nice for me to unwrap it! Dilemma.*
RM 15.90
(I have no idea what's the actual name but this one is translated.)
Can this blue be any more prettier? I'm in love =D
RM 4.95 (O.P. RM 9.90)
(This one too. It's translated.)
A shade of baby purple which is very lovely.
RM 4.95 (O.P. RM 9.90)
I got this one on behalf of my deskmate, cheaper than we thought.
A very adorable design on the box, worth buying this.
A very adorable design on the box, worth buying this.
RM 9.95 (O.P. RM 19.90)
So, because we bought RM 80 and above for Sweet Recipe and total bill of RM 50 and above, we got...
*Okay I over-protected the full poster so the picture of it is at the flyer of my previous post.*
In-house promotion and GP sales, definitely worth it!
Though the 50% offer might end soon, the 20% from Sweet Recipe hasn't!
If you're still wondering to get any products from the latest collection, my advice is GO GET IT before 30/4!
We then proceeded to SaSa to get my nail art pen.
SaSa was also having promotion on hand products and eye products, therefore another worthy purchase.
This one is available in more colours, but I chose black because I might use it a lot.
*Tip : The center part of the pen is the colour you will get.*
RM 9.90 (O.P. RM 12.90)
It was already close to 12 noon when we left SaSa, then to satisfy our hunger we walked to the basement floor to buy Cone Pizza as lunch.
Dropped her back in school, then I headed home and had my nap before coming out again around 5ish to Queensbay.
Damn myself having to take this picture like this =X
Anyway, thank you dear for the treat! ♥

Sticky "I Love You" Rock

Next, I headed to Etude House (once again) to check out (since the promotion hadn't ended) and here's what I got:
Fashion Queen Nail Collection - #02 Rock & Roll Baby
I picked this up because I feel like completing the collection. KILL ME.
Again, this collection comes with matching stickers and 3 different colours :-
1. Blond headbanging: A bottle of filled with chunks of gold glitter;
2. Heavy Metal Silver: Another bottle with chunks of glitter, but this time in silver;
3. Rock Chic Leather: A bottle of matte black polish.
RM 24.95 (O.P. RM 49.90)
Help My Finger Quick Dry Liquid Drop
As how the product is named, you just have to put a drop (or two on your thumb) onto your manicure/pedicure and it helps to dry it faster.
*Another cheaper than I thought product.*
RM 12.95 (O.P. RM 25.90)
Look At My Cotton Candy Nails - The Long Wait in the Spring
A very nice shade of mango-ish orange.
Damn. This is already the 4th bottle from the 10-colour collection.
Even with my love towards pastel colours I shouldn't be doing this. PLEASE KILL ME SOMEONE!
RM 4.95 (O.P. RM 9.90)
Dear My Deep Color Nails - Crown Brown
*I'm not sure if they labelled wrongly because this looked more like Ground Brown from the collection.*
To be honest, I got this one just to make my bill > RM50 for the postcard lol.
As you can see, this one is a lighter shade of brown, it's a great contrast if your fingers are fair enough.
(Nope, my skin has tanned a lot since 17.)
RM 9.95 (O.P. RM 19.90)
I wonder if I'll come up with any nail art during school holidays.
Stay tuned.

Haul : Nail polish
This is my first time writing about haul and I'm pretty excited!
So yesterday I was in Queensbay Mall.
At first I thought of checking out Topshop because they're having renovation sales, then Etude House.
Considering Topshop items might just make my pocket burn, I walked first to Etude House.
Then, there were sales as well.
Stopped there for quite some time to try out some colours on my nails.
Too bad, didn't take a picture when each nail had different colours.
However the offer was really worthy.
Buy a minimum of 3 items from the store and get 50% off each item (ends 14/4), except for their latest launch of Sweet Recipe Collection products which only offer 20%, also a minimum purchase of 3 items (ends 30/4).
Sounds interesting, because that means storewide discount.
Here's what I got:
Wanted to buy nail polish remover from there, unfortunately it's out of stock.
And I was somehow regret for not buying any nail polish from Sweet Recipe Collection.
That collection has a collection of 4 bottles of pastel coloured nail polish with glitter, and the design of the bottle is a replica of an ice-cream!
Click here to check out the review.
Here's one more review with #notd. *Thanks to Felicia for the link!*
It's selling at RM 25.90 each though. *Buy them before the offer is over!*
I went to Elianto before going off, just because I feel like getting the Grape Nail Colour Remover.
Thankfully, it wasn't out of stock.
My last nail polish remover was the same one, and it has a nice scent of grapes that's why I came back for one.
It's not worthy to buy the smaller bottle of remover if you're wondering which to buy (RM 8.00 for 60ml).
In Elianto, it's RM 15 if you buy a bottle of nail lacquer + a bottle of nail treatment (base coat, top coat, cuticle oil or nail strengthener). Makes you save RM 3.90.
Therefore, here.
I might be back to Etude House on Saturday to help my deskmate get her lip concealer, as well consider if I'm buying the Sweet Recipe Ice-Cream Nails collection.
Oh and, do I mention something good in Etude House for Penangites this coming weekend?
Finishing this post with a SHINee hangover.

Here's what I got:
Look At My Cotton Candy Nails - Dancing Ballet Shoes
Since I don't have any pink in my own collection and I like how sheer the pink is, I decided to go for this.
A very lovely colour similar to a pair of ballerina flats.
Got this at RM 4.95 (O.P. RM 9.90)
Dear My Deep Color Nails - Bye Violet
A very special shade of purple with some brown undertone but doesn't make the colour too dull.
This colour compliments grey and purple clothes very well.
RM 9.95 (O.P. RM 19.90)
Fashion Queen Nail Collection - #01 Hey Jean.E
*One of my favourites!*
This collection has more to choose from, but people know I love the colour blue to death and I love anything about jeans/denim. This collection is perfect for denim lovers.
The sticker pack you see at the 3rd row is included in the box. =)
It comes with 3 bottles of nail polish :-
1. White T-Shirt and Jeans : A snowflake-y base colour with blue sparkles and glitter;
2. 70's Blue Denim : A special colour of toned down blue;
3. Perfect Skinny : Dark navy blue colour with cobalt blue fine glitter.

It's not worthy to buy the smaller bottle of remover if you're wondering which to buy (RM 8.00 for 60ml).
This one, RM 10.00 (100ml).
In Elianto, it's RM 15 if you buy a bottle of nail lacquer + a bottle of nail treatment (base coat, top coat, cuticle oil or nail strengthener). Makes you save RM 3.90.
Therefore, here.
Nail strengthener for my weak and easily breakable nails.
RM 10.00 (O.P. RM 12.90)
S09, which is a lilac. *Wonder why there's no name for this colour at the bottle*
Thought of buying this for my future nail art designs, maybe.
RM 5.00 (O.P. RM 6.00)
Oh and, do I mention something good in Etude House for Penangites this coming weekend?
SHINee! Ahhhhhhh!

Finishing this post with a SHINee hangover.

One week.
Holiday mood is now officially off. FML D=
Nevertheless I had a few highlights of the week.
Pre-script : This is a picture filled post.
Started my Saturday with PCGHS Taekwondo Outing.
Youth Park every year and I was starting to get bored lol.
We finished with an overall first runner up, which was still alright.
Also received a present from the organising committee for being active.
*Surprisingly this was the first year this present was awarded.*
I'll move on to Monday since I decided to rot at home on Sunday.
Went to Escape Adventure Theme Park with Siew Yin via Rapid and met up with SGGS Taekwondo group.
The place was fun, but the items are considered expensive for the locals.
If you wish to go there some day, I can suggest you with some tips and personal experience.
Here's a preview as I am taking my own sweet time creating a collage.
From Tuesday to Friday, boredom came kicking in when I had to drive to school every single day for extra class. =(
Nevertheless I got myself out of the cage for the afternoons.
Tuesday afternoon, decided to have lunch opposite school with a buddy.
Who knew that we'd bump into Sora's mum and spent the afternoon sharing opinions? Heh.
Wednesday, thanks to the frigging weather I drove home after class and took my nap.
Just so you know, my date with Elim people also delayed after times of discussions carried out on Twitter.
Now, stories about Thursday.
I wasn't paying much attention during extra class. =X
Nothing about Accounts pop out, but the routes that I'll be driving.
That's why I was weak at that chapter she taught that particular day I guess.
Even texted Chi and got a phone call from Jae-Sonn in the middle of the class lol.
So after class I drove to fetch Chi, chilled a while in Starbucks Drive-Thru then off to jetty to wait.
Jeez, the weather wasn't very pleasing. Scorching hot, and my car could have fried an egg.
Therefore I went hoodie-off when I was driving.
Arrived in Queensbay after picking up Jae-Sonn and Zelyn, then met up with Jayne.
For this outing, our plan was "No plan". Pity enough huh?
We ended up heading to Kim Gary for lunch, then wandered around before decided to spend 2 hours to let it all out in Neway.
Because singing Chinese songs were too lala? English songs only in the room, maybe a few Korean.
Before we parted ways, here's our #potd. Credits to Zelyn.
I had Chi and Jae-Sonn in my car, while Zelyn went with Jayne.
More inside jokes went on. Ha!
Dropped Chi at Gurney, then since it wasn't that late yet we went on for dinner.
Definitely worth the price!
I mean, I had a great dinner you see. =) Great satisfaction.
Food lovers, do try it out.
Route summary : Home > School > Tanjung Tokong > Starbucks Drive-Thru > Jetty > Platino > Queensbay > Gurney via Gelugor > Perak Road > Marshall's Burger > Jetty > Home.
How far did I drive, I didn't calculate.
Overall it was a good day with the people. =D
Friday.
Went to Zoe Sheen's house earlier than planned as extra class dismissed early.
Did teacher had PMS that day or what, she wasn't in a good mood.
Glad to have Zoe Sheen to share all my burdens, especially those weeks when friendship hung on a cliff.
#hypiesforever!
I was so blessed to have her cooking me lunch too. =D
Thank you very very very much Hypie!
After lunch I did a bit of my Accounts homework, then some pillow talk with her.
It's till then I realised that how important your buddies' support is when you are at your weakest.
Wished I could stay longer, but one phone call had me rushing from Pulau Tikus back home. #spoiler
Cousins from Ipoh came as Uncle Joseph's having a dinner to attend at night.
They just went back today.
One week, gone.
April kicks in soon, the pressure is felt.
Nike. #justdoit.

No doubt.
No doubt, time flies.
No doubt, here comes March in 4 days.
My Chinese New Year had been a bland one, with nothing too extraordinary happened.
Think I shall summarise with pictures I posted on Instagram.
Nevertheless, February has to end.
Here's something to kick start my March with.
Anyway, pray for the best.
Right my partners? We won't let each other down.
For now I'mma write an official letter for the school saying that I'll be absent for both days.
Oh please, who wants to go cross country while you can represent Penang, your hometown? =D
General studies' assignment (a.k.a the horrible 5000-word thesis) has to due in 3 weeks, gotta push myself hard to complete everything after tourney.

The all red Quah family celebrating Granny's 70th birthday. :)
No words can comprehend how much I love this family, because everyone is awesome.
New Year you say, new clothes I say.
I love shorts, but my swollen calf was the main reason I wore shorts for CNY.
Reunion dinner with some om nom dishes.
This was definitely everyone's favourite.
CNY is the right mood for gambling, said the people.
So do you mean we can gamble using UNO cards too? Hmm.
I seriously regretted for forgetting my tumblers. 4 bucks gone! >:(
So my cousins and I were glad to meet these cousins.
Very easygoing people which won't make us feel awkward at all times. =D
Say hi to the BANGS. (Extracted from the word ABANG, not the hair bangs you thought.)
The annual CNY event in church which I couldn't afford to miss.
Of course, the main purpose of CNY : Angpows.
Sadly, I don't even want to send her off! =(
*Sobs much.*
The journey hasn't been easy, but we've made it.
2 years 2 days, and still going strong.
Here's something to kick start my March with.
4 days left, and tomorrow will be the final official training with the state team.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Anyway, pray for the best.
Right my partners? We won't let each other down.

Rejoice always, pray without ceasing. - 1 Thessalonians 5:16-17You can do it, Alice.
