Lately i have been supporting independent art accessories a lot. I have stopped purchasing accessories from stores and have resorted to purchasing handmade accessories; well not exactly handmade but they are not commercialised like Axxezz, Accessorize,Dorothy perkins,Topshop accessories..just to name a few.



Here are some of the goodies i just got.

wow i can hardly believe that i have been home for about a month and now its time to go back to the land where noone eats char kway teow *smile*. i did have a good time back home, not much studying done but i had a good time nonetheless. t'was great meeting up with fidy, ophe and arthur. besides that, a bit of shopping done as well! its high time for me to bury myself in books since the exams are just a few weeks away! gahh im almost scared now.

anyway it has been a good 3 weeks, lots of things happened within this short span of time. things i never wanted or expected to happen did and i suppose i can safely say that im still in the midst of confusion *frowns*. i've been very much distracted lately and still struggling to find my comfort zone. i guess it all boils down to one thing..im not ready yet. of course i wonder to myself..will i ever be ready?

to those of you who know about my obsession with anna sui *smile*, here are some of the goodies im lusting after! see how pretty they are.







anna sui accessories are so pretty! i heart all her items.*smile*

so im still packing my bag..im leaving tomorrow and i hardly even packed!im just throwing everything into my bag really. still deciding what clothes i should bring there..the temperature is increasing gradually lately. spring's here! summer's comin! i think i can kiss the cold miserable winter nights goodbye hehe. London callingggg to the underworld..Come out of the cupboard,you boys and girls *sings The Clash style*

be good y'all i'll see you guys in juneeee.

I don't think i like being in love. Im obsessed! Its not healthy..but what can i do. I don't think this is a phase of life that i can avoid. I think right now im rather confused and all i can think of now is to 'follow my heart' although now im starting to figure just how far i can continue being like this. Deep down i know im not ready but guys tend to be pushy. What i hate more than anything else is to be pressured. I would much rather break it off than being pushed into it. Im also afraid all the time; of getting my heart broken another time. I really want a love that will last; its not like i expect it to but i guess its just that i want to be taken seriously and not just for granted. Sometimes i really want a relationship to be more than just about the physical attraction; for me its always whats beneath that matters and that what holds a relationship together in the long run.

Anyway have been indulging in a lil' retail therapy lately teehee. Bought a lot a lot of unnecessary stuff which i like to think as necessary. Suddenly it feels good again to be back in KL. But then i will be flying back to the UK next saturday (21st). Fidy, ophe if you're reading this..we so have to meet up before i leave.*smile*
and yes a series of shot of me..this explains how bored i was teehee enjoy

Yes im a redhead

First and foremost i must apologise yet again for my disappearing act. Being MIA for almost 2 weeks; since i left UK. I have been back for more than a week and all i can say is that i am making the most of the scorching hot sun. No more sweaters and thick wool coats! wheee absolut heaven. :) For the first time in months i can actually wear shorts, skirts, singlets. I can never do that when i was at the UK because its always cold and the weather is so unpredictable. Just when i thought that the temperature is slowly increasing, there was a snow the very next day and then followed by a mini-hail. Horrifying.

Anyway my life has taken a few turns lately. Everything's happening so quickly and im just going as far as my heart can go. Sometimes i feel a bit confused though. decisions decisions.


Seeing that i havent meddled with my hair for almost a year i went for a new colour and cut. Its much shorter now and im no longer a blonde; i made the most random decision to dye my hair red! Yes red! Initially i wanted a reddish-brown shade but my stylist just went ahead with a red for me. T'was a bit shocking at first but i think it looks awesome now. Its a fresh change from the usual blonde that i usually go for. Best part is that it never made me look pale like what blonde did to me. Weee goin to peekaboo with Fidy this wednesday for her haircut; she wants to have it cut like mine.
Went out with Fidy and Ophe last week and had loads of fun doin what gals do best; shopping! Had lunch at secret recipe. I had the good old fish n chips, fidy had the chocolate brownie and ophe the peach cake and gourmet pie. YuMs!Then we went to forever21 and camwhored with their big ass mirror teehee. Fun times.


Dragged bout 6-7books back and i hardly touched them. Gahh i hate to study during the holidays. Exams are nearing; its high time for me to at least make a dent on my reading list. =/
