Corset NOTW, Happenings and Random Thoughts

I srsly need to be more creative with titles. I guess that's just the product of exams and shizz.

ANYWAY.

First things first. The NOTW the past week?

Corset nails! Recreated from a youtube tutorial :)


Damn. How's the weather been, eh? The heat/rain combo = not good especially since it's either raining really bad or the sun is scorching. Lately though, it's been pretty much wet for the most part

The view outside the classroom. Yep, outside our building is a lake-ish water formation :p

Lots of rides to and from school where personal space was compromised (this particular time, there was lots of space before him but he would try and weasel his butt to me D: )

Hanging out Thursday with Mai. She treated me to a corndog because of a bet. She passed her Physio exam :) Congrats to her. My toes were freezing off at this time because of the rain. I have an umbrella but still =\ It's been like that for a lot of days so I vowed that I'd use a pair of rubber boots at home when I get the chance.

And of course, the best treat during a rainy day is ice cream, right? Well no. Haha. I promised Jigz I'd treat him to ice cream (since he's treated me to movies) the next time we hang out and I ended up treating Mai too :p It was delicious I had the Double Dutch blizzard, he had Choco chip and Mai had Strawberry Banana :D

Jigz amazed at how you can turn a blizzard upside down but it doesn't fall out. I guess it was his first time :)) It was quite amusing to watch his amused reaction xD [Note: Amusing = funny, lol] When we met with him I thought he looked decent and told him, then I was like "Oh yeah, you're going to your gramps' bday bash. Pssh" Otherwise he'd be in a shabbier state :)) [If you're reading this by some off chance, yes, I am being mean]

Mai's enjoying. I can never imagine why *sarcasm* LOL. Haha. J/k Had a taste of her blizz, it was really yummy too!

Jigz after finding his glasses. It was hard when we were ordering, had to read out shizz because of his then low vision status :p It was funny, the dude didn't punch in his order soooo awwww. He felt sad and stuff... and I took pleasure in making him feel worse about it :))

The next day I had to go to school for some group assignment. I dressed in a tube-ish dress and a slouchy top (because I'm not feelin' the revealing vibe :p), my fave necklace and RUBBER BOOTS because it's started raining already.

Well wouldn't you know, my outfit was a hit :))

Not only was it completely functional (people had to pay tricycles to ferry them through the flood while I walked on with a smug look) but when I got to school, some the juniors were at the entrance and they were all "WOAH"-y. I felt better that day than I've been feeling :)) They thought my boots were straight up dressy ones! But upon closer inspection, they found that I was trying to impress no one ;)

My gran and Mai thought that I looked like some foreign chick because of that. Sweet :p

Here's the best pic I could muster btw!


The weekend's been spent trying to study, catching up with Mik and it's been the best ever :)

My status lately?

"I know the letters in our name are M, A, R, A and M, I, K, I. But somehow, to me, it spells love. CHEESYYY but I love it ;) Who loves my pick up lines? :)) I do! I do!"

Thanks for being the best baby :) You make me happy like no other. Yes, I'm a cheeseball, but only for you ;) :p

  • Reviews (Ponds Pure White Facial Wash, Olay Regenerist Eye Cream, Olay Regenerist Face Cream, Sigma Eye Brushes, Kat Von D Beethoven Palette, etc. [tell me which you're most interested in? :)])

Yay for gum that takes care of your teeth. Got a new facial wash and toner too (is it a spoiler? :p) plus I needed more cotton balls so there's that :)

I have my moments :p And they're actually not! The design is somewhat forgiving when seen at a distance but I don't mind, it was the first time I used the stamping method as part of my design. I'm planning to blog about my nail journey so far actually. Like application, designing and stamping and all that jazz. Glad you like 'em doll and yes, I'm in LOVE with my outfit that day :D

I used fauxnad :)) I didn't have the money for konad so I bought a knock off stamping set and a few image plates :)) And yep, julieg!

With the boots, I couldn't bring them up because they were a little dirty when I got home. Might take a pic next time I go out with them or something :))
