M.A.C.- Up your mind!!

It was a beautiful day to make yourself even more prettier. Nak gune perkataan beautiful, but felt it to be redundant. Hehe. Throughout my vacation of ONE month at home, I found myself to frequent KLCC like on a daily basis. Apart from the fact that the Twin Tower Fitness Center is free for all SLB employees, I found it irritating yet fun all at the same time. Penyakit tak?

There was a FREE make-up touch-up done by MAC for their Chrismas promotion, with the yummy theme color RED being the main feature. I didn't have anyone to drag along - especially on a weekdays since everyone else was working. Sweet Jengalina took a half-day off to accompany me!! Wuu yea.. best best. Freebies? Sape tak nak!!

In the hot seat!! Oh dan top itu I got it for her when I was away in the UK. Yes, I remember everything.


Jengga BEFORE/DURING la kot eh lg tepat? She had her face done by one of the make-up artists, and before he could get any further with the painting, we told him we would want her to have dramatic eyes and super duper nude lippies. Yumm.




And I had Miss Rachel, so sweet and friendly. Usually the ladies at MAC are like ice-queen and kinda mortifiyingly snobbish. Haha, such mean generalization, am I in trouble? Anyways, Rachel was asking me all sorts of questions, what I do, why I need to look good. Mind you - we went for the sit in right after zohor prayers so all I had on was my moisturizer.

"You should at least put on compact powder and lipstick, eventhough you are an engineer.." Cam. Oh rili. Hahahhaa.. but I just nodded in agreement.

So on went the spritzer refresher thing, the pearl effect moisturizer and then the base+primer lotion before she added on layers and layers of pretty strokes. Hehe. Suke ok.

Ini mata Jengga yang cantik. Her eyes were always the pretty almond type, so serine like kucen.

Ini pule mata aku y sepet. So sepet like cine. Oh well actually come to think of it we both look chinese like lah. Just depends on when you catch a glimpse of us. Pictures were taken in the pretty lighting of the Apartment, KLCC.

Where we had yummy prawn fettucini in tomato basil sauce. The ambience was nice and fresh, the decor picture perfect. But the service - sucked. For a classy place like that, to put in foreign labor who joked at your order was not my idea of a good place to pay a lot of money. Sabar je la.

Oh and relating to the topic that was put at the top of this entry, we dwelled over lunch..and later decided on which items we personally were going to splurge on. Hehe. Jengga got the basic brush set and the Warm eye pallette. Whilst I chickened out and got the eye brush set. But - later during the month I purchased the Warm eye pallette as well. Hehehehehe..

This entry is to remind me that I spent my money - more than my usual swipes - how and where. And most importantly, WHO influenced me most!! Jengs, sorry to break it to you honey, this would be the last time I bring you out on any spree. I kidd I kiddd~

Kak Iju Sudah Kawen

My most prettiest kakak sepupu, Iju is now married!! Me and mum helped out a lot with the preparation..holyyy. So much to do so little time. But we did our best and in the end everything went well. Nothing in life can be so perfect, so we are happy with the outcome. All I can say is that it’s a shame the pictures all revolve around this one main character – the humidifier~!! Haha. We should have positioned the bride and groom closer to the stage. But little did we know when the Ustaz called upon the bride, he wanted to do the ‘serious’ stuff nearby the humidifier. Hapekahh.

Oleh sebab aku tak suke himidifier itu, aku post gamba ni je la..

I tested the new member of my loved ones, a 2nd hand dslr we got for a fraction of the price here in Kemaman. Our own nikon d80! The couple hired a guy from FINAS, and the outcome was pretty good. He even lets the couple choose which pictures they want to explode to a bigger size. Nice haa.

Pictures to fill in the blanks!!

Mama and Kak Iju in her room.. simple and pink.

This picture is the true-est picture of the whole bunch. Us hogging like no tomorrow!! Lapa siottss.

The reception was held the next day at Dewan Risda, since both my aunt and uncle worked there before. I wasn't in the mood for picture taking so I want to only share this one where I looked like I was working so hard. Haha..

Sorry for the late reporting. But the net was down when I was blissfully making myself and the couch at home as one.. hahaha.. later lah.

Nervousness

All this talk about oil prices on the brink of its minimum allowances is just driving me nuts. For the first time in history, it is the money that is causing the oil prices to drop, and not the other way around.

It felt like I just walked out of my safe place and into the real world did I know how serious this issue is. Termination and recession? Those two are a mouthful, let alone causing my shopping binges overboard with regret.

They are going to cut people. The list is out. Holy smokes.

Hedonism

I am writing as I am thinking. I wanted to write about how the real world struck me hard as I made my way into the first few days of my vacation. I forgot how nice the pillow felt when I didn't have to throw it far away in the morning. Best gile siot dapat tido lame.

I came across this word in the papers one day. I thought it had something to do with the banning of my favourite challenging sport. But it actually was about the obsession of worldly delights. I am one of those people who would get caught up in spending too much or splurging once too often and when the piggy bank runs dry, I will be left to sit on my sorry arse alone on the sofa. Haha. It has always been like this for me though, regardless of whether it was when I lived on rm 1,500 during uni years or the more lavish amount I am getting now on a monthly payroll.

Some things just won't change. Like the fact that he always flirts with the girl across the counter and even plays with his speedlite-800 on her face or that he thinks that the girl who walked  by simply must have noticed how good-looking he was..or like the fact that he'd rather test his camera settings on a static ash tray and the fact that he has openly confessed that he wants to start smoking again..is somehow related to the fact that money will never be enough.

Huh, they are so related right?
