My 2011 December Haul

Hey guys!

It's the second day of 2012, can you believe it? I'd like to wish everyone on Blogger a Happy Happy New Year! :D I hope to blog more this year and perhaps...get more followers? :P heh heh.

Anyway, I'm going to share the stuff I got from last Christmas! I bought most of them and won half of them :P Let me just say that there will be quite a lot of pictures as you scroll down ;) I warned you :) But then again, I love pictures! Enjoy!=)

First off, my Random Eyes Boutique Giveaway prizes have arrived! :)
*I apologize, the photos came out vertically :P not all of them, don't worry :)*
The prizes were packed in these adorable little black bags. I love how the boutique packed it!
The Random Eye Boutique Tag :D
First bag, as you can see, it's so tiny and cute ^^
My earrings! I chose the Hershey Chocolate Bar earrings! Looks exactly like the one in the picture from the website. I like how the sizes are big and not puny :D

Do you notice the googly eyes? Every Random Eye product has a pair of googly eyes on them, how awesome is that? :P


Second mini bag, my necklace :) I chose the Nestle Crunch Chocolate Bar necklace.

Up close at my Crunch necklace. I love it! :) I'm really glad I chose this design, it's different and cute. Chocolate bars are amazing, I suggest you pick up this necklace if you ever visit Random Eyes Boutique.



Secondly, I'd like to show you the stuff I got online. I shop online very often and since it was the holidays, I was allowed to do so. Found so many adorable items that I wanted online but being the sometimes thrifty girl I am, I got only few items. I did spend quite alot though, the prices are definitely not cheap! Plus shipping and everything but it's definitely a fun experience for me :) I do like shopping online :)

The first item I got online was from MiniBites Accessories, an online store selling adorable mini accessories such as earrings, rings and necklaces. I bought the most adorable item (in my opinion) on the online store, the Macarons in Paris necklace in Strawberry flavor (the colors are named by their flavors >_>) And my sister and I was shocked when we received it because the size of the macaron was very small compared to the picture we saw on the website >_> I guess it was our fault for not checking with the seller :/
By the way, one necklace costs RM25 which I think, is very expensive, for a mini mini mini necklace.
Let me just tell you if you're interested in buying, their products are really MINI, literally.

Here is how the necklace looked like.
Oh drats. The chain got tangled the second I pulled it out of the plastic @.@

I guess it doesn't look that small up close .__. Guys, lesson learned, check with the seller about little details before buying. Looks can be deceiving :P
Walah! My puny cute macaron necklace.

2nd item that I got online were K-Pop items :D A couple of posts before, I showed a sneak-peek of my SNSD The Boy's album. And here it is! :D
Open Sesame!
Other than the CD, here's what's in the box. Our seller gave us free Mr Simple (only Sung Min, Kyu Hyun, and Ryeowook >_>) and f(x) photo cards.

Ryeo-Wook! He has a strong and unique voice but I'm not a big fan :/

Cho Kyu-Hyun ssi :D (If you're reading, Wi, looooook! Your favorite! :P)

F(x) cards :)

Look at Krystal's makeup O.O

The lyrics book, I think .__. This booklet tells all the information about every song in the album.


My favorite album extra are the photo cards! :) In this mini section, there are cards with individual members on them and a little message from each member.


My favorite is the one with all 9 members in beautiful gowns :)
This album is expensive but definitely worth it because it came with 2 free posters and all these extra photo booklets and stuff. There's also a random member card in every album. I got the Sunny card which I did not take a picture of, sorry! I also didn't take pictures of the 2 posters that came with the album but I will post pics of it when I put it up on my bedroom wall :) I got the album for a cheaper price on eBay, if you're interested in getting one just let me know, I'll send you the info on where I got it.

I also bought an IU poster from the same website I got the SNSD album. I think it's the cover of IU's Real album. It's super gorgeous, I'm glad I bought it. I'm a huge fan of IU, thinking of getting her new album, Last Fantasy, poster but then again maybe I should stop spending for awhile :P
Finally put it up on my bedroom's door. Happy! Now I've just got to put up the SNSD The Boys poster, I'll make sure I show 'yall when I'm done putting it up :)

Next, this is a forgotten blog post, I was suppose to show 'yall the prizes that I won from the Picture Polish Giveaway months ago! It was delayed for such a long time I completely forgotten about it. Well, lemme show you them! I'm in love with these Picture POlish nailpolishes, they're simply awesome, the shades are gorgeous and the quality is great!
P.S I chose Berry Nice, Marine and Coral Reef. I was glad that I chose Berry Nice, I've been looking out for plumish purple kind of shades lately, but the best is still Berry Nice.
Thought I should show you guys how they look like on me nails :) Sorry for my messy application, I'm not a pro when it comes to painting my nails neatly, it's one of the things I'm not good at!
UGGH, messy nails :P I gave Coral Reef to my older sister as her birthday present last year, she chose out the color. It's pretty but I prefer my dark and unique colors, I use to wear mostly pinkish and reddish shades alot back when I was young so I'm in for a change as I grow up :)
Moving on to the items that I bought during my holiday trips...this is the only little item I got from Penang. I got this cute ribbon earrings at a flea market at Straits Quay for RM8. Don't you think it's adorable? :) Sorry for the bad lighting in the picture. It was the only item I got because I was sick the next few days of my trip! >.< it was horrible being sick on your vacation. I had viral fever and diarrhea, trust me, it's miserable. I suspect that I got the viral bug from some Philippine dude on the airplane who farted (I almost died when I inhaled the poison gas) :P It was just terrible, the whole trip was ruined!

But at least I got such a pretty little thing out of the trip :)
I have reached the end of my December haul!
***
Sorry it's so long! The next blogpost will be an Etude House haul :D I wanted to combine it with this post but I bought the Etude House in 2012 :p so, I will be doing it in a separate post.

LASTLY! I shall reveal my haircut :)

BEFORE

AFTER

My hair is now shoulder-length and layered. I didn't plan to have it this short, honestly, but it's not that short till I can't tie my hair up. I'm just glad I can still do up a high bun :) Excuse-me for my blemishes on my face :P I have been breaking out alot!

I got my hair cut at a salon behind my house. The person who my Mom booked to do our hair was on leave which was so ==" So nevermind, we asked the other two free employees who claimed they were professional to do our hair instead. Personally, I was very mad at their service, they didn't treat us very well. They were very snobbish and service wise, very unprofessional. But they still did a not-too-bad job on my hair. But will I be going back for a trim? NO. Why? Because they need to treat their customers equally with a smile not a snicker >_> I'll come back when you have better service, boys!

Let me know if you're living in K.L and know a good hair salon ;)

Well, I'm getting nervous as I have to get back to school, and I'll be attending a new school! So I'm very very nervous. Any advice on how to be less nervous?COMMENT PLEASE :P
Till my next post, see you guys :D
xoxo

CANDID

Me and Grace doing the Home Alone thing :PP with our hilarious silly faces. People, we do not look like that in real life!!
(At HK Disneyland waiting for The Firework Show)
Can you spot us in the Big Red Christmas Ornament? :D
(At Pavillion [shopping mall] during Christmas 2010)


My perfect messy bun from back view :) Credits to older sister, Rachel for making the bun and taking the picture! :P

Rachel being a paparazzi 8D She'd make a good one.

A lovely picture of lovely gals from School. Me and bestie Wei Yew in white :) Adorable smiles, don'tcha think?
I know, EWWW. This are the leftovers from a feast fit for a seagull, literally! I was taking a stroll along the beach of Busselton and look what I found on a boulder? A fish's worst nightmare :P

Check out Little Sammy's Crib! Awesome right? He slept over and stole all my soft toys and arranged it very neatly on his bed. He called it the Solar Panel bed because of the 19 (or was it 24? Now that's alot!) pillows along the sides of his bed like solar panels.




Ending today's pic spam is the breathtaking view of the Sunset in Busselton. I just love this picture!!

LAST LAST PICTURE :p P.S Do check out my bestie's blog HERE, her name's Esther and she is such a darling! She loves music and her posts are awesome to read. If you need a friend just go visit Esther and she'll be more than friendly and happy to get to know you :) Don't forget to follow :D

Looking Through The Lenses of the Camera: Part 3

Part 3 of my series of Looking Through The Lenses of the Camera! :)

Some time during Christmas last year (2010)
Location: HK Disneyland
Title: The Last Day of Magic







Picture 1: Oh no! It's kind of blur here. Sorry for the blurness, shaky hands :P This was the elegant Christmas Tree sitting in the lobby of Hong Kong Disneyland Hotel. It made the whole room filled with the Christmas spirit.

Picture 2: Another blur picture, sorry! The beautiful sight of Sleeping Beauty's Castle (in Hong Kong, it's Sleeping Beauty's castle. I heard in America, it's suppose to be Cinderella's Castle) It was Christmas so they hung beautiful blue lights all over it. It lit the dark sky. It was sort of sentimental as we took one last look at the famous castle. It was our last night so it was sentimental, I'm weird like that :P

Picture 3: Dinner time! We ate before we went back to the theme park for our final Firework show. This is the picture of the kid's meal. My older sister and cousins (Grace and Samuel) ordered the kids meal (xD you can actually do that even if you aren't a kid). The mickey mouse shaped Mango pudding was the highlight of the whole thing, yum yum!

Picture 4: Group pic! :D Last dinner of the HK trip. Sniff sniff :'(
