Holidays begin~! 


Exams are finally finished and even then there are still so many things to do! So I have a super huge post full of (not so) pretty pictures :)

I got my glasses done (about time too!). They're just cheap frames I bought while I was in China and just had prescription lenses put in. They make me look smart right?

I've also been eating a lot of sweet potatoes during exam period. I love sweet potatoes so much but the prices are rising so I've been eating less of them.

I found the creme caramel puddings at the supermarket. I loved these as a little kid and it's been YEARS since I've had one.

After my exams were done, my parents took me to La Porchetta for dinner. It was a new branch that had opened recently around my area. I ordered a parmagiana but I didn't realise how big it was until it got to the table!

For my dad's birthday I bought him a cake from David Jones. Chocolate Hazelnut! The cake is super rich so eating too much of it would make you feel sick.

Last week I met up with Cute guy for coffee and whatnot. If you follow my Tumblr then you'll know who I'm talking about. We went to Koko Black and I ordered a Iced Mocha. Unfortunately, that day I was feeling sick and I didn't really have the appetite to have chocolate. So I only drank a little and left the rest untouched.


That day I also met up with a couple of high school friends for some late night karaoke. Plenty of strangers there too, but after a few drinks things weren't so awkward.

Yesterday I caught up with a old friend of mine for frozen yoghurt :) I also felt like eating macarons so I bought some. The cute guy at the Cupcake Family convinced me to buy 6 for $10. Haha~!

I also lost my wallet a week ago so I had to buy a new one to replace it. It's a cheap wallet from Strandbags to tide me over until I can afford a Miu Miu one. Teehee.

Today, I bought some new makeup and put a order on ebay for a 120 palette. The SA at the Dior counter was so lovely that I bought a lipstick as well as the foundation. It's called Rock n Roll (720) ^^

I also had my hair cut short(er). The hairdresser cut my fringe WAY too short so now I have to pin it up otherwise it looks strange :(

OKAY THAT'S THE LAST MONTH OR SO RECAPPED :D

Next post will be after Anime Camp~!

Pho me up. 
Today my mum had to go get a blood test. She's been unwell lately so she went to get a blood test to check for anything abnormal.

Afterwards, we went to eat Pho at Richmond. There's this one restaurant that I really like eating at, I'm not sure what it's called but their menu is pretty simple.
My Beef Combination Special!

Jackfruit smoothie ^^

I went shopping with my mum and it felt so good to be able to do something like that. I can't really remember when I went shopping with her.
I bought a few things because like my mum, I like spending money.
Artbox was having a 50% off sale so I picked up a few cute things hehe :3 Pretty pens ^^

And a new mascara... cause I like mascaras and the Great Lash was dry and crappy :(


I also bought a storage container for my makeup. Unfortunately, it's not big enough for my makeup. I'm pretty sure I'll need a bigger one once I put the big fat order for the NYX makeup.

My parents were so cute today while shopping for a juicer. My mum suddenly wanted to make juice so we went and bought a juicer. And we talked about how we don't have a toaster. My parents were looking at toasters and found this:
And said "Oh look! That would be really good!" and started discussing whether they should buy it.
I had to point out that it was just a toaster that someone had knocked over before they would leave it.

Work was super stressful. I kept thinking about my exams and how unprepared I feel. It affected the way I worked. It felt like I had to finish everything quickly. I also helped out at the Bakery, serving pies and cakes. It was definitely a nice change, learning about how things work in another area at work. But trying to construct the cake boxes was stressful because I'm not very good at that kind of stuff. I like working in the Bakery. Plus cute guys seem to like cakes more than they like salad.

Milk Obsession 
As per usual, nothing much has happened in my life in the past week that really required me to blog.
At uni, if I arrive early, usually I'll sleep on the red couches where my friends usually hang around. It's a habit I've developed quite recently due to the fact that I don't get enough sleep.

If you guys follow my Tumblr, then you'll know that my love life has taken quite a turn for the better. Unfortunately for me, he isn't single (like I thought he was). But it's okay since I enjoy his company and an innocent crush can't hurt anyone right?

Apparently I'm 'famous' in my Business Stats class. Last week I finished a submission super fast. My tutor thought it was strange cause when I opened the door to leave, he asked "No questions this week?"
I'm usually one of the last to leave. I'm always the one that he helps because I don't know what to do.
I didn't turn up for my tutorial this week since I was too tired and slept in. Apparently my tutor asked my friend "I wonder how fast she can finish the tutorial exercise this week?"
Haha.

Last night, winter at my house was officially marked with hot pot! I really love hot pot and during winter we used to eat hot pot every few weeks.
Omnomnom fishy~!

I went and bought some milk candy and some milk tea. I have a weird obsession with milk flavoured things and I think it's because I can't have regular milk cause it gives me tummy aches when I drink it by it self. Study snacks~

I also went into Diva to buy some earrings (since I always seem to lose just one in a pair) and came out with some necklaces and a ring. They're having a $5 sale at the moment, so I took the opportunity and bought some really cute things.
I was in a rush so I didn't check the size of the ring. It's too big for me to wear on my middle finger but it's okay on my index finger.

Hello Winter~ ♡ 
Winter has finally come!
(Excuse the awkward photo. It was windy and rainy!)

I have a horrible propensity to spend money.
Today after work, I wanted to buy some makeup since it feels like it's been a while since I've bought any...

Unsatisfied with what Priceline had to offer, I turned my eyes to..
Dior!

The packaging is so beautiful, that it was worth every cent of the $103 that I paid (well, I paid $80~ since I have a staff discount). The weight of the packaging is really nice. Compared to the drugstore palettes, the weight is a lot heavier and more stable in your hand. I haven't used it or even swatched it yet. I'm saving its first use for Monday (hehe ^^). It comes with two brushes, a sponge tip and one with an angled brush to use with the liner.


The SA even gave me a sample of Miss Dior despite the fact that I had knocked over one of the perfumes with my bag earlier. She was so lovely about it. (I love where I work haha!)

I'll let you guys know how it goes and whether or not it's worth your money :)

A few days ago, I was sent something by Maybelline. Recently they came out with a new product called Babylips so they're sending out samples to random people who've signed up for their newsletters. It's like a lip balm concept. It's not the most moisturising lipbalm but it smells really good.
I don't think I'm going to use the $3 off Voucher though... I have too many mascaras :( And the next one I was hoping to get was YSL.

I also bought a Hello Kitty case for my Macbook. My poor Macbook keeps getting all these weird scuffs and stains (nothing a damp cloth won't get rid of). I don't like the regular Boring Black laptop cases and Typo doesn't carry 13" cases.
Hopefully this weekend+Monday, I'll be able to get all my study done and my room cleaned (yet again).
