* Apologize

Posted on November 19th, 2007 by lane. Filed under Blogroll.


I’ve been looking for some really good music lately.

First i was thinkin that maybe “i will follow you into the darkness” would be my fav song but it just didnt trigger a repeat mode in my mind, so it was axed…. Than i was listening to the spastic tally hall( v e r y C u t e) and subsequently moved on to the hoosiers

Than i was listening to the UK charts and i was struck smitten with One Republic.
Searched for their MTV and i am in love with it. Asthetically, its beautiful. Musically its such a good listen and it fills me up like how a good dessert would. The MTV for this song “Apologize” is stunning and i adore the clever use of dark and light colors, objects, movements and people’s faces. Finally an mtv that is devoid of scantily clad woman,violence,bimbos,cars,money,rappers.i jus love it

My dad’s into flying model airplanes

* MIKA & MUST HAVE MAKEUP BRUSHES :)

Posted on August 24th, 2007 by lane. Filed under Blogroll.



MIKA - The Sissors Sisters all in one( Heh).
I read he was trained by a Russian Opera Professional.Like WOW.

Watch this MTV! A Skinny stick like guy singing about big girls and sticking his head in btw some woman’s thigh! It’s Brillantly funny.

Mike Quote:
“I enjoy creating possibilities out of more mundane things. I don’t see myself as being particularly flamboyant. I don’t think I’m camp. I just do what makes me feel happy. One thing I suppose I do have is a fearlessness that stems from not knowing the rules. When you are constantly rejected, as I was at school you don’t get a chance to play by the rules. If I had been accepted earlier on, maybe I would be more of a comformist now.”

I LOVE MIKA

Makeup Brushes 101

Do people really need brushes? I think yes and no. If u are great with ur fingers and are happy with the applicators that come with ur eyeshadow casing than skip this.

I cant do without them though…

If u look at girls with beautifully blended eyeshadow, theres a high chance shes used some magic brush, something like a MAC BRUSH????

haha… Mac brushes are easy to use, blend great, look good, so this is an area in which they rule. Wish i had them during makeup school.

First up for the EYES,
MAC 239 - Meant for pilling on colors. Great reviews on MUA and u need one of this for smokey looks or to intensify colors without wasting more eyeshadow.

MAC 275- Great for brow bone Highlighting or if u have a fat lid, this will be great for applying and blending eyeshadow
[photopress:275.jpg,full,pp_image]

MAC 249- Brow bone Highlighting. U can even such brushes to apply concealors and cream based products.
[photopress:249.jpg,full,pp_image]

MAC 217- Hate to blend? I didnt know shit about blending but i knew i wanted to have beautifully shaded colors so this will be great. If the spread is too big, and u want more control to where u are blending, buy the MAC 219

MAC 266- Wing tip, simple lining, eyebrows. This will give precise looking lines. And if ur brows are thin, this will be fab.

For the FACE

MAC 187- This brush will make ur foundation look flawless. If u have some bumps, use this brush first for foundation, than use a dab of concealor over it. If it still doesnt cover flaws well, try to use the flatter foundation brushes to apply foundation, as it gives a denser coverage. This brush gives a more dispersed and more natural look.
Great for blushes and bronzers.

Powder brush- For an even application of powder. Fast and hygienic.

For the LIPS

Any Good Lip brush. Applying that red lippy will be a whole lot easier.

* blues

The other housewifey is back and i am not so bored.
Shes really nice and smart and has good skin .. nicest someone i have met here.
Shes much much smarter than me and has a keen sense of direction and loves to travel.
phew good company at last.
ITs strange to meet her cause it gets my mind rolling about some issues…
She likes to be independent and free and career wise its a no worry for her.
will i ever be like that?
will i ever have a career that i am proud of?

hmmm… i wonder….
LeMas has been pretty down lately cause in abt 3 months we will be going home and where we will be staying is another issue altogether… Theres the worry of TO BUY A HDB or NOT and other things like if he can maintain my spendthrift ways… SIgh… i try to control it but its hard. Hes having a hard time all in all and i am praying this too will pass quickly.
Hes so smart and intelligent i just hope he knows that other ppl may pass judgement on him but hes still one heck of a guy. Surely a man who helped me win my 3M ad has more to offer than what other ppl may think. Its just whether or not he wants to.

to ROME i go tomorrow…

* Dad

I will always remember dad for the music he listened to. For songs that soothed the soul and music that sounded so sweet. Always in his music room, a dreamer and alone, totally dissolved in songs such as these. For introducing me to The Supremes and Diana Ross at a tender age & putting them in a special place in my heart. Miss my dad back home, my sentimental daddy.

* music

Posted on March 14th, 2007 by lane. Filed under Blogroll, Daily Life.


Listening to Robin Thicke’s album is really fun! i love it. Its a little of maxwell with tons of soul and groove in it.
Thankfully one album to save me from listening to John Legend on crazy repeat!!
Sorry about the damn second video though, theres no MTV for this yet i guess. But this song really makes my day.

When i struggled through my exams, music was played on serious repeat mode. Needless to say i was bored out of my mind and needed something to keep me with my books and distract my mind from getting so bloody bored. There was a time when i played nothing but Tori Amos, David Usher, cardigans,diana krall, chris isaac, tom jones, beatles, queen etc…I would do my exams with these songs floating in my mind and i was comforted.
Not too long ago, my brother and I started to play alot of Jack Johnson b4 he exploded and my father asked my younger sister what we were playing. Its seems he went to order it along with John Mayer! my GOd my dad is so cute!

Hence, another journey of waiting b4 i return home with music being my constant companion.I just cant help but put it up on this daily journal.

I ordered Dr M from Amazon and its going to be 6 weeks in 3 days and then its time to call them up. I dont blame the supplier. I know this country’s customs can be an absolute, err , pain? yea. Serious, i tried to order Neostrata online b4 from skinstore as it was cheaper then getting it here ! Unfortunately, Germany doesnt allow it! Strawberrynet ships to so many places but GERMANY!
I HATE IT

Thankfully i found an English Hugendubel* bookstore so that i can go read some stuff in English. Its not that i dont want to pick up other languages, i just cant unless its to do with surviving. I guess its my ADD coupled with obsessive laziness. hahaha i have a ton of mental disorders. Luckily for me its postulated that ppl with OCD have brains and its this complex thinking pattern that creates a ton of issues.
What a comforting thought

* i am no idiot

Posted on March 9th, 2007 by lane. Filed under Blogroll, Daily Life.


Today is an infuriating day.

I may not be good at maths but i am no idoit

i do not like it when people ask for my advice, use it and then keep on wanting to tell me things about how they use my advice without really listening to my opinion and then carelessly comment on my body shape and say gross things. The gross stuff is not about me but hell i am no buddy of yours and i do not appreciate you telling me about your THOUGHTS.The only gross thoughts i can stand are people who are close to me.Also, dont think i dont know what you are not saying.

Afterwhich i cannot stand it when people talk to me like i am stupid little girl that knows shit. i also dont like people staring at my face and commenting on the marks there with suggestions. If u know me than u know that i am not talking about pimples.
I have a brain which i use and sometimes i know its abit hard for people to treat me that way but today just takes the cake. I fucking need to be around people who do no talk to me like a 5 yr old, acting all coy and pretentious. i hate it.

I may have meat on my bones but at least i dont have only meat in my brains with no smart cells to boost.
To hell with all the men who have opinions about girls with meat because i dont give a shit about this. If All girls had a choice would anyone want to look anything less than kate moss? Yeah, girls with stick legs and figures should be thankful but girls with full bodies and a healthy body should be thankful and be able to feel wholey beautiful too. Its not all about squeezing into a size 2 and starving. I had more self love for myself when i was fatter but so many would put me down with their bloody comments. Enough is enough !! I have boobs and always have since i was young. My mother did comment that it was weird that i had them since shes flat. I hated having them and my built but isnt that degrading a different type of beauty?
If i were to redo my life, i would be always be proud of my flesh and my boobs and no one, not society or any moron can affect my self respect or love
DO i freaking look like a PUSHOVER?
Do i act like one?

one more thing, its not cool to try and act cool.
its F A K E

BTW, i was carrying this bag that my mom bought for me at CPM market and i tell u this bag had so many girls staring at it.
i am going to post the picture of it as soon as i transfer it but damn this bag is hot! hahaha i felt so proud of this bag.
my mom sent it to me using fedex and i got it within days…My mom also sent me wonderful panties cause the panties here stink.

the weather is so drying and my skin feels so dehydrated. i hate it……. i have lines on my forehead… help me!!
