Take a Hike 2
I know i said i'll update over the last weekend, but then im kinda busy... cause i've gt my 3rd freelance!! Horray! I've reach my first mthly pay(minus cpf) amount earned by freelance work. One freelance per mth, just what i've been wishing for. Of course i'm hoping it will increase along the way, but then i will be just as glad with one per mth. Let there be a 4th one next mth. =)
Ok let's do this again before i get started on my hiking trip (*Grumble grumble*)
Top 5 can't do without make-up
1. Concealer
Used to be from Maybelline but changed to the one from The Face Shop.
Like it cause it kinda matches my complexion n it's small! It takes the form of a lipstick so it's easy to bring around! Using it ever since i discovered The Face Shop.
2. Foundation
Tried lotsa brand before setting down with FASIO 21. Again, it matches my 'albino' kinda complexion n it's kinda diff to find make up for albino skin type, u know? *Sniff sniff* Like u know my pain.. =(
3. Blusher
From Body Shop & Anna Sui . Cause Anna Sui is compact size, i normally carry it with my gym bag. Both are sponsored/given by friends.
4. Lip balm & lip gloss
Lip blam from The Body Shop n Lip gloss from ZA. I dont really use these items but then ever since i came back from the hiking trip, my lips have been dry like shit (-_-". ok maybe nt shit, that's gross) I will bring these along in my bag.
5. Mascara
All rite, i can actually live without this. Just that if i really have to choose a no 5, this will be my next often used item. Used to be from Maybelline but then has since been changed to Anna Sui even since i received it as my bdae gift. I like the ban-dong smell actually. If only they have honeydew- milkshake smell, strawberry- shortcake smell or even mango pudding with atap-che smell. WOot. Delicious even with the thought of it. Maybe i should suggest it to Ms Anna. =) Or rather i'll just have my own cosmetic brand call the Qi Wan. ....... Ok fine, doesn't really rhythm. Forget it.
Anyway, that's that. Mdm Ong please approve n dont kao bei me already k =)?
All Rite, as i have mentioned, during the national day holiday, i joined Xp n 2 of her friends for a hiking trip in Cameron Highland. Seriously i didnt know bag packing or hiking or traveling without shopping (though i wont mind bringing in the shopping part next time =p) can ACTUALLY be fun!
After this trip, i have came to learn a lot, especially towards the beauty of wat our mother nature can offer. It's like they are grown it such a beautiful way, with their roots, their trunks n everything laid in such a manner so that we human being can rely on them to climb to greater height, enabling us to enjoy all the beautiful scenery and more of the beauty that nature can offer. N yet, we human being tried to hurt them in everyway that we can. I feel guilty just talking about it. All rite, from now on, i will try my very best to cut down on plastic bags usage. Nt something big but hey, we gotta start somewhere rite? So whoever who read this, try to do ur part next time u go shopping ok?
N yup, on the sec day of our trip, we were lucky enough to see the meteor n the milky way. We have someone who has some knowledge on constellation or else who in the rite mind would have thought that the 'ji pu' clouds lookalike thing in the sky is actually the milky way. We spent an hour or so in the cold just to watch the stars. We laid our poncho somewhere up a small hill next to our hostel n just lay there, watching the tiny panpricks. How i wish i could make time stop n i can enjoy that moment forever n forever, u'll still be in my heart, n i'll....... all rite, wrong song. Anyway i saw meteors 6 times, with twice thinking my eyes playing tricks on me when no one else saw it, twice not able to make a wish in time, n twice finally able to make a wish. So i only managed to make two wishes. Of course i'm nt gona say wat it is. Think i stupid meh.
All rite, think you have had enough of all the text. Pictures time (warnings, lots of pics)! As the one who knows astrology is also kinda pro at photography, we took lotsa very very nice photos! Seriously im beginning to think maybe a Nikon camera can be kinda good of an investment. Anyway, Enjoy!
