Nail Art Collections

Interested to see my nail art collection? I don’t have a huge collection, but its my collection! I love nail arts and I did not take any classes on how to do nail arts. Everything is learn from youtube videos or by looking at pictures! Doing my own nails is one of my hobbies =)

Nail Art pens from Vietnam! My best friend got it for me when shewas there!

You can free lance with these pens and draw-away when you feel like it!

Colors: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Brown, Black, White, Pink, Gold & Silver(dried up)

Acrylic set & False Nails

Let me tell you, Acrylic STINKS! It stank up the whole basement when I first used it and never dare to try it again. Not so expensive, it cost me about $45.00CDN. I don’t think I can use it again because it stank so bad and the smell is bad for your health!

Nail Polishes

Years of collection!

Brands: OPI, Sally Hansen and many other different brands! I love collecting nail polishes!!

& of course, my favorite one is OPI

Stamping Nail Art Set & French Manicure Sets

I love the stamping nail art set ! it gives you the opportunity to do more designs! Simple & Easy to use, but at times it can give you a big headache!

French manicure sets; simple&easy

Nail 3D stickers

My  favorite! How easy can it get? Paint your favorite nail polish on and apply sticker and than top coat.

I plan to get a lot more of these in China, when I’m there. Anyone interested for some? Let me know by leaving a comment below! I will mail them to you!

Rhinestones

All you need to do is simply applied them on with glue and than you’ll get beautiful nails =)

These aren’t so expensive either!!

Glitters

Glitters are a pain in the ass to you !!! It goes everywhere if your not careful! It sure gave me a lot of headaches. Therefore, I don’t use it much anymore! Don’t want trouble with it !!

No makeup VS Makeup

Reason why I don’t go out without makeup on? Look at below! My skin color is so uneven on the eye part and the nose part. I need to work on my eye bag really! It’s not the matter of fact of not getting enough sleep. I don’t even know what it is. I sleep 10 to 12 hours a day and I would still have it. Any suggestions guys?

Christianity

Christianity

I gave it a good thought about Christianity. I even talked to my step-mom about it. She told me: She believes in my fiancé that he can take care of me. He can give me love and support, basically she really trusts him in everything, which it is very important. But for me, I really believe I should be a Christian for him, his family and my future kid. For myself, I do not have a religion. I never really believe in anything because there was no proof shown to me.

I believe, going to 1.5year of being-a-Christian classes will give me an opportunity to learn about their religion. I’m not saying I’m only doing this because of my fiancé’s family and him. This might help me personally. =)

My Lucky Charm & Our Love story

Did I ever tell you how lucky I am meeting the love of my life? I do feel like the luckiest girl ever after meeting him. The first thing people would ask, how did you meet him/her? It’s quite an question to answer. I mean, we obviously told a white lie to everyone. A White Lie. Yes. We told everyone that we met through a friend, so it would sound normal to everyone. But the truth to be told is, we met through the internet. I know I know… Meeting people from the internet does sound a bit freaky. Why? Because there’s a lot of rapist in this world. But you know what? He wasn’t a rapist, but instead I found my lucky charm!

Everything started so magically. I mean, I’ve met him through this site called DotdotVillage many years ago. Yes when I was back in grade7-8? I believe so. I can’t really remember when I met him. But for along long time. We never really chatted after the site server has gone down. Than somehow I believe he found me on Facebook one day and added me, but we never really chatted till everything started in 2008, September. One day he messaged me out of no where and we just click like that.

Our first meet was kind of a shy situation. Like I mean, first time meeting this stranger after a month chatting on facebook? I gotta admit, I had many questions in my mind. Is this guy a rapist? Is he what he is ? Is he making up stories to get to know me? There was a lot of questions of course, but I took the risk.

Our first date went very well with watching a movie called “Eagle Eye”, which I fell asleep in the middle of the movie (That’s me, I can never watch a full movie at theaters.) Than we went for dinner at Go4Tea. We chatted for about two hours and realize there’s a lot in common and interest in both of us. Than we just hit off like that…

& Here you go, one and a half year later… We will be getting married in 1year and 4 months! How fairytale-ish is this? In this 1.5 years of being with him, I did not regret one thing. Not even one. Nor there we have major fights. We have debates, but it was never a hate and crying argument. I’ve met the love of my life and I know he’ll be the last! I love you baby!

PS: If his parents read this. UH OH, they’ll find out the white lies we made up. ><”

Managing your time

Managing my time is fairly important! Well to me it is, what about you? I hate people being late and I dislike people waiting for me. Is that a phobia? I wonder if it’s one. In the past, if I know I’m gonna be late for work, I call in 30minutes before to let them know. If I was meeting up a friend and I was late that day, I would feel extremely bad for making the other person wait for me. Maybe it’s just personality?!

As you all know, I have four blogs to take care of. These blogs are like my babies and yes I do check them every day to see who left a comment for me or even check my traffic thoroughly. Crazy am I? But I certainly don’t update it every day. I don’t type on my blogs every day, but I do find a free day to update all my blogs and back track it or schedule my posts for each day. Makes my life a lot easier to run this way. Don’t you think? I never really was stress over with blogging. Why stress? When you have other things to stress about? Exactly, Even a half full day of updating my 4 blogs with 5 posts on each is more than enough time. What about you? Do you stress over updating your blog?

I started blogging when I was really young. Blogging to me is like keeping a diary of my life. I used xanga before, which is another blogging site. I started blogging in my high school years. But for now, I still do enjoy blogging of course. I enjoy reading my past again and laugh about it. I’m sure if I have a kid in the near future, the kid can read about his/her mamas’ blog and learn more about his/her mama right? =)

Blogging is not only a diary! But a great way to make friends online. For myself, I’m not a very talkative or sociable person. I can be when I open up, but I have split personalities. I can be super quiet or I can be super talkative. It all depends on my mood. You must be thinking, I’m so weird eh?

Out of 10 for time management, 9.5 is VERY important to me. What about you? How important is time management to you? How do you manage your time?

There’s a quote “Time is Money”

DIY; Cross Stitching

Do you enjoy cross stitching ?? I only enjoy it when I’m in front of the TV or watching TVB dramas on my laptop. I have to be watching something in order for me to do such a piece of art work! It’s not hard when you follow the map! If you screw up in these art works, well I mean little mistakes, it’s not a big deal! People can’t really see it. =) Here’s another piece of artwork I did! Do I sell these? Possibly, if someone would spend a $100.00 for this. Sure. But if not, than nope. You need a lot of time to stitch one piece like this and I do it for leisure!

Glade; Plug ins Branches

I’ve decided to try this out, since our washroom is always stinky because of the wet towel smell! The scent I picked was Pineapple smell and it smells so good! I left it in the washroom for more than an hour and the washroom is all cover with this pineapple smell. Not bad with the price too! It only cost $7.03 with tax! I’ll sure be buying another one for the living room! =)

Wedding list

With all these wedding preparation on our minds, it is quite frustrating to be honest. I believe we are already ahead of the game. We started to finally plan on March 2010 while our wedding is on July 2011. That is about one and half year to plan. For myself, when I host a party or reunion, I usually plan a month or two months ahead. But for this wedding, we planned about one and a half year ahead. Hopefully this will work out *cross fingers*. I know there will be a lot of things to do that BIG DAY. Following a list of to-do helps with less stress.

Right now, we made reservations for church and venue already. PHEW those are the biggest part of a wedding I believe.

On July 23rd 2011

  1. Church @ 1:00PM – 2:30PM
  2. Dinner @ 6:30PM?

morning to night list

  • shower
  • hair stylist
  • makeup artist
  • he picks me up from my moms’ place
  • brings us to church
  • change into Kay Po
  • goes to venue to “pour tea” for elders

& the list contines, will work on it thoroughly when I’m back from my vacation…

Best gift to bring to Asian Countries…

You gotta agree with me! Chocolate !!! Chocolate is pretty expensive in Asian countries because chocolate is origin from here! I bought tons of chocolate from Costco the other day and packaged it all up into bags! How much did these chocolate cost me? About $90.00

my all time favorite!!

this one is not bad too, milk chocolate

Aren’t the packaging cute? I had a lot of fun packaging them! It looks like Easter Bags! Oh how I wish I have kids now, so I can do more crafty work with them! I am an hands on person if you guys haven’t noticed =)

Straight from the heart & A painful childhood

I used to limit things to say in my blogs because it’s out in the public and who knows who’ll read my blog right? Haters? Friends? Families? I used to get bother by a lot of who reads my blog, but now it doesn’t seem to bother me anymore! Because it’s MY life and it’s MY blog.

I’m not good at expressing my feelings with words, but I can with typing it all down. Is it just me? Or some people are like that too? I’m never good at words, even if I’m mad at my Fiance’ I can never really tell him straight in the face on why I’m mad at him. These feelings just built up in my heart. Which is not good, I know! But that’s just how I am.

I have a lot of things in my mind that not everyone knows about. I miss a lot of things in my past. Than again, I do not know many things in my past because my mother had died too soon to tell me about my childhood. I envy people that has a mother to tell them all about their childhood really. Were I naughty when I was in my mothers childhood? When did my first baby tooth fall out? Was I a good kid when I was a baby? Was I bottle fed? I know, I’m silly ! But these questions will never be answered in my life. Although, you might think I’m crazy because of these stupid questions. To me it’s definitely not crazy questions, it’s call curiosity questions. I cannot blame anyone with the lost of my mother, except my father of course.

Why? Because my father was an abusive person. From what I’ve heard about my own mother from peoples mouth, she is a very easy going and soft person. I do not understand why she married such a person. I gotta blame him for this because I see it with my own eyes in my childhood years. I cannot forget those scene that happened. I go bring it up to him for these past months and he does NOT admit to his behavior. HELLO? I have my own pair of eyes too.

Never mind about this selfish man, which I have already given up on him with his selfish act of having ANOTHER family in Asia. I cannot understand that in a matter of fact. With a family in Canada which is NEVER near perfect, he goes and have another family in Asia? What kind of brain does this man have? I wonder too if your asking the same question. Tell me about it if you know the answer. I don’t want to go further living life with pain. Yes it was pretty painful in my early years of life, let’s just say there was no family love. What can I say having a father that doesn’t know how possible to be a father? He thinks giving us a place to live and food on the table is enough.

Sometimes I wonder why my brother & I don’t think like him? Since we’ve been living with him for half our lives, why don’t we do what he does? Being selfish? I really don’t know why I can be the opposite of him. It’s hard to understand.

Going on to my wedding, the very first thing I think about walking down the aisle was not having him to walk me down was such an headache to me. You may wonder why? People do gossip. Oh What happened to your father? Where is he? And the gossip continues… I guess that’s reality, he wouldn’t be attending my wedding period. Am I being a bitch? Not really, because he never admitted of his wrong doings. I mean, he’s 50 this year, he doesn’t admit to his wrongs? Unbelievable.

That’s it for today folks. Can you imagine what kind of childhood I have? Why I kept so much things inside of me? It sure does feel great typing it all out. Gives me room to really take a deep breath.
