致爱情
致爱情，
几次的偶遇，却始终与你失之交臂。有人告诉我，这或许不是件坏事。但我还是无法掩盖心中的小小遗憾 -——如果遇见了你，生命或许会不一样。当然，没有遇见你，日子还是一天天过。听说过关于你，美好的、悲伤的故事，不难免激起心中的好奇与想象。期待你带来的美好，却更害怕你带来的伤害。或许我们都还没准备好；或许命运已经决定了，你不属于我。
或许，我们都需要勇气。
Goodbye 2011
2011 has been a great year. The good, the bad and the unexpected.
Internship minus the real work tension;
Graduation minus the convocation;
Work offer plus the unknowns;
and every little things in between that I couldn’t put down on words right at this moment.
It’s been an inspirational year; almost like I’ve started my live again. &:’)
Thank you all for your love – during the ups and downs; you being there sharing every moments of my life!
Wish all who’s reading my post, a new year as special as you are! Stay positive and healthy!! ^^
Hugs & Kisses.
11 Frugalicious Beauty Tips – Fashion + Beauty on Shine
Just because you’re trying to cut back doesn’t mean you want to stop looking good! The salon and spa budget may be the first to go, but there are still many very inexpensive ways to look your best.
#1 Drink water and tea. Want to improve your skin? Forget expensive lotions and serums, just hydrate! It will help your skin look healthy and clear. Tea is another great option because of its antioxidants.
#2 Exercise. When you get your blood pumping, it brings oxygen and nutrients to every organ. The end result is healthier skin and hair. You’ll also notice you have a natural glow, so you may be able to use less blush. And of course, you’ll look trimmer!
#3 Try a vinegar hair rinse. Skip the conditioner. Instead, add a tablespoon of cider vinegar to water and use it as your final rinse.
#4 Go to beauty school. Not to get a degree, but to be a test subject! Students offer all the normal services as a normal salon at discounted prices. You may even be able to find students training to give massages.
#5 Try a natural facial. Can’t afford a facial at the spa? No problem! Many household items can help keep your skin looking your best. Here are two:
- Yogurt: If you’re looking to moisturize and prevent premature aging, look to this dairy product. The lactic acid in yogurt helps to dissolve dead skin and tighten pores. And why not throw in some oatmeal to help remove excess oil and dead skin cells? Mix a tablespoon of olive oil, four tablespoons of plain yogurt, and a ½ cup of oatmeal, and apply it for 15 minutes before rinsing.
- Cucumbers: Most of us know that a slice of cucumber over the eyes can help with puffiness and dark circles. The chemicals preventing water retention, ascorbic and caffeic acid, can be good for all of your skin, improving your complexion. Peel a cucumber, put it in the blender, and then use a strainer to collect just the liquid. Beat an egg white and add the cucumber liquid. Then apply and leave it on for 15 to 25 minutes before rinsing.
#6 Make your own body scrub. Don’t waste money on the fancy stuff. Keep it natural (and cheap!). Mix one cup of olive oil, a cup of sugar, and 2 tablespoons of honey. Rub a little into your skin before showering.
#7 Take a nice, warm bath. You’ll benefit from the relaxation. You can add some olive oil or powdered milk to soften your skin.
#8 Give your skin a break. If you’re not heading out for the day, skip the serums, creams, and make-up. Not only will it save you money, but it’s also good for your skin to have time to breathe.
#9 Add a little remover to your nail polish. It may sound counterintuitive, but when the bottle of polish is about half empty, add a few drops of remover. This will keep the polish from getting too thick to use and make the bottle last longer.
#10 Skip eye primer. Instead, use a tube of vitamin E. It will cost you less than a dollar, and it serves the same function!
#11 Learn to cut hair. Or teach your spouse. This isn’t for everyone, but it can save your family quite a bit of money. If you’re going to give it a try for the first time, go for a cut that is a little longer than you really want. That way, if it doesn’t go quite the way you wanted it to, you can always go to a professional to fix it.

50 Things Guys Wish Girls Knew
- Guys aren’t psychic, mind telling them what you mean?
- Guys don’t like to be used as pawns in trying to make your friends jealous.
- Guys tend to get serious with their relationship and become too possessive. Better watch out girls.
- The biggest turn off for guys is to see girls smoking. *Like, really?
- The biggest turn on for guys are the girls who workout.
- Girls who don’t want to listen to the truth shouldn’t be asking any questions. *refer to #1, if you want the truth you should be asking questions.
- Ending a heated conversation with “Fine” or “Whatever” isn’t considered acceptable.
- If you want sex, just ask.
- Don’t expect guys to say as many sweet things as they do in the movies. It takes 10 couples to come up with one sweet thing that they put up in the movies.
- Only models are able to carry off most of the stuff you see in fashion magazines.
- A guy who likes you wants to be the only guy you talk to. *and we wish for the equal
- A guy would sacrifice his money for lunch just to get you a couple of roses.
- Guys need to be reassured often that they’re still loved.
- Guys don’t care about how gorgeous you are, it’s goodbye, adios, and sayonara if you’re being a bitch.
- All guys are kinky and willing to try anything that you may enjoy, just let them know.
- Guys are more emotional than you think. If they loved you at one point, it’ll take them a lot longer than you think to let you go, and it hurts every second that they try.
- A guy would do just about anything to get you to notice him.
- Guys do not look into minute detailing. So, if you gave up a quarter of an inch from your 20 inches long hair, don’t expect your guy to know that instantly.
- Guys like porn!
- Anything said six months ago is inadmissible in an argument. All comments become null and void after seven days.
- “The game is on” will be considered an acceptable excuse to postpone any serious conversations.
- Cooking makes a girl all the more attractive.
- You can’t get mad if your guy refuses to hook up your “ugly friend” with one of his good-looking friends. *I can assure you, I have not ugly friend
- Nothing you will ever do will entitle you to operate the remote control, unless operating means handing it to him.
- The only thing left to be said after sex is “goodnight.”
- Video games have helped men develop awesome finger skills that only encourage them to play more often.
- Critiquing a man’s driving is outright unacceptable. *how about commenting?
- Guys’ night outs are sacred events. If you ask any question about it, you’ll be castigated. *I see..
- Believe it or not, 99.5% of the time men honestly don’t mean to hurt you.
- Guys may be flirting around all day but before they go to sleep, they always think about the girl they truly care about.
- Guys hate it when you talk about your ex-boyfriend or ex love-interest.
- If a guy tells you about his problems, he just needs someone to listen to him. You don’t need to give advice.
- Don’t hold it against your guy if he starts to cry after a good sports movie, and was laughing outrageously last night when the two of you were watching an emotional drama saga.
- Leaving a message like “You know what?! Mmm… Never mind…” would make a guy hanging on to that thought all day long and reach a conclusion that is far from what you are thinking. Don’t ever do that!
- A usual act that proves that the guy likes you is when he teases you.
- Guys love you more than you love them. *Tell me about that!
- No matter how much guys talk about hotness or sex appeal, personality is key.
- When a guy says he is going crazy about the girl, he really is. Guys rarely say that.
- If a guy starts to talk seriously, listen to him. It doesn’t happen that often, so when it does, you know something’s up.
- A guy has more problems than you can see with your naked eyes.
- Guys talk about girls more than girls talk about guys. *Really? Like.. seriously?
- You like when your guy calls and asks you out for dinner and pays for you, right? Well yeah, guys like it once in a while too.
- It’s natural for a guy’s eyes to wander.
- It’s not that guys don’t want to make their girlfriends happy; it’s just that sometimes, they don’t know how.
- A guy would give his right arm to be able to read a girl’s mind for a day.
- Not all guys are jerks. Just because one is a jackass doesn’t mean he represents all of them.
- When a guy sacrifices his sleep and health just to be with you, he isn’t doing it all for sex. It means he likes you more than you can imagine.
- Even if you dumped a guy months ago and he loved you, he probably still does and if he had one wish it would be to have you back in his life.
- Guys love girls with brains more than girls in miniskirts.
- A guy would waste his time over video games and football, the way a girl would do over novels and make-ups. *Well, this pretty much explain about the shopping too, doesnt it?
What’s Up in the City of Lion
Here’s my first quickie from Singapore. Had only been working for a week or so, slowly picking up at the job.*I think I’m terribly slow despide the fast pace of my environment.*Well, furk id, I live my life.
Singapore’s been a great city with the super-thumbs-up transporting system. But, of course, everything comes with a price. Nonetheless, it’s a peaceful place (with high living expences) to live. Now, let’s cut it with the living, it’s not like I’ve been living here for years or what.
Work loads are on their way, so I’m preparing myself for a blast. Hey, I’m finally leaving the jobless life, don’t blame me for getting all excited about my first real job. It’s going to be whole loads of learning with a..well, little stress.*Looking at the incoming sales support request*Was slapped with the shocking news of the dreadful atrium event*God, help our poor soul if you’re reading this.*Amen
But, that’s reality. And like I said, reality feeds us, not our dreams. So, beat it and live with it.
Till then, cheers~
