Plain girls win the boys

Bummer. Why the fact that "plain girls win the boys" is a bad news for me? I super love wearing make up. Ever since I fell in love with them 4 years ago. Added by the fact that Korean style trend is easy to pull off.  I can say that I am super confident of my cat-eyeliner-drawing skill. And this makes me oblivious to the fact that none of my boy friends (not that I have many to start with) saying that I look good in it. They only said "wow you look different'. Then stops. And then most of them end up chasing the plain girl with nearly zero make-up (I really audit their picture sometimes) and most of the plain girls ended up married. Geez. Boys are such a liar (or maybe they don't have the guts? But let's not go to that direction here.) The point is, the new challenge for the day is how to underdress your face without looking like you just been overrun by a truck. Tough. But let's just do it. #todolistgettinglonger

Because birthday cake is too mainstream

I had a weird random early celebration of my birthday this year. On the last day of Lunar New Year holiday back home in Jakarta, my mum and I spent our lunch together at Sushi Tei, one of popular Japanese restaurant chain in Indonesia (full details here ). And the waitress asked us if there's anyone having a birthday this month. I, happened to have one. And after all our orders have arrived, they surprised us with...A BIRTHDAY SUSHI ROLL. Kudos to Sushi Tei for their creative customer service. XD

Older than yesterday but younger than tomorrow

Happy birthday to me! Oh my gawd, time flies so fast it feels like I just blink and suddenly I am getting older. I don't know whether I should be happy or sad. LOL. I had so many things happened in the past year both happy and sad. But as what the quote says you can't have a better tomorrow if you keep thinking about the past. So today I'm saying goodbye to all those sad moments last year and saying hello to a better tomorrow. But for today, I'll just enjoy my day. =)

How to look nice with shoulder length hairstyles?

I go completely horrified whenever I start sweeping my bedroom's floor. Hairs everywhere! O_O This usually happens when my hair starts growing out longer than my shoulder. Haizz. I love long hair but maintaining long hair takes a whole lot of efforts. As I like taking shortcut (ahem, not that I'm proud of actually), before I know it, my fingers have type "shoulder length hairtsyles trend" on Google. #googlefest Here are some nice inspirations: 1. Rosie Huntington Whiteley I got no idea her hair is now shoulder-length but I suppose model looks good in anything. Even bald. XD 2. Taylor Swift Tay tay always looks pretty, including in shoulder-length hairstyle. Her hair looks slightly shorter than RHW though.  3. IU K-pop idols are another great source for hairstyle inspiration and I love how IU looks in shoulder-length. Problem though, my bangs are not that long yet.  4. Kristen Bell My favourite actress (hey, Veronica Mars/ Gos...

Being happy on your own

"Sometimes you just have to create your own sunshine." One day, we feel that other people just don't get us. Hence, we are unhappy.  Another day, those that we expect can make us happy disappoint us. We are unhappy, once again.  Is our happiness supposed to be based on such flimsy sources? Happy are those who realise that they can be happy on their own. 

How do you count down your birthday?

It is 2 hours to my birthday and I have been spending my times watching Running Man   thinking about what I've been through for the past year. Do you do the same if tomorrow is your birthday? Like what the quote says, let's not focusing so much on the number (it's a wise decision considering that our age can only go to one direction), be grateful and enjoy our remaining days on this planet earth. Cheers~~~

Do cats get lonely too?

A lot of my friends are either a dog person or non-animal-lover. I'm gearing more toward the latter as I don't have my own place at the moment. But I spent my whole three years of junior high school being called cat just because their latin name are pretty close to my name *le sigh*. Thanks to that, I become more observant of cats and kinda admire their don't-care-attitude. But do you ever wonder if cats do get lonely too? (dogs are seriously like super extrovert animal and like to hang around people). Based on my recent exploration at Google (I am not that adventurous, you see), it is not wise to leave your cat alone for more than 24 hours (yes, cats do get lonely!). If you close eyes to your cats' lonely feeling, you can start imagining what can happen when you leave a cat alone at home for a long time like: 1) A super disgusting litter box (even your cat stop using it because it's too disgusting) 2) Wrecked/ scratched things around the house (I am qu...

Doing laundry near midnight

I thought I can move on from this weird habit of doing my laundry at midnight after I graduated from university. But now, at 11pm (Singapore time), I have just finished loading my laundry into the washing machine. And hence, I must stay awake for the next one hour to wait for that machine to spin spin rinse rinse to clean my clothes. To be honest with you, I'd rather do everything around midnight if that minimise my chance of meeting (and hence exchanging words) people outside my bedroom. [Fyi, I am renting a room and hence, staying with my landlord/lady]. Hooray, antisocial lifestyle!
