.::. Cropped .::.

This was me.



Then this happened.



This is now me.



And this is me today.

So, I went short.  It's been years, perhaps 6 or so since I had short hair.  Although I told my hairstylist that I'll come back for short hair when I did my hair before the wedding, he still kept asking if I was sure when I turned up 2 months after the wedding.  Everyone seem to be shocked by how easily I cut my hair.

It's just hair people!

I feel...or perhaps look younger.  Feel lighter.

New beginnings are great.  Change is great.

.::. Mugging days .::.

I have been mugging at the library these days.

It brings back many memories, days when I spent in the library, mugging and worrying about exams as a student.  Days when we went for lectures.



I used to eat the Ban Mian so often.  I had it for lunch yesterday, it still tastes as good.

A hearty breakfast to start the day.

My carrot-orange juice and the plate of fruits only cost me $3.50!  *high.  Need to nourish my body with more nutrients and vitamins to absorb all the information.

I wonder if it's a sign of aging, but I feel really tired after 3-4 hours of studying.  I used to spend easily 6-8 hours studying during those days, but I can barely do it now.  5 hours is all I can concentrate a day.  =(  Obviously, I don't burn midnight oil anymore.  *sigh.  Really need to pass these papers and be done with studying soon.  But in all honesty, I actually enjoy studying.  Ahh, the contradiction.

On another note, I have started drinking Fancl Tense Up Deluxe 2 days ago!  I've heard raves about how it makes your complexion glow, shrinks pores and makes your skin really smooth.

After 2 bottles, I've got to say that the results are amazing!  My skin feels smoother to the touch and my pores have visibly shrunk, complexion appears brighter too.

And...I was given student discount!

Tomorrow's last day of studying before judgment day!

Jiayou!

.::. Makeup .::.

I have been trying on makeup with fake eyelashes (borrowed from Chye) and double eyelid glue for my bridal makeup.

I'm really not very good with things like fake eyelashes. I'm too lazy when it comes to makeup though I would like to believe that I can do a decent job. The initial idea was to save some money since makeup artists don't always do a good job. But at the rate I'm buying makeup, I don't think I'm saving much at all. Oh well.

I guess many would believe when people say makeup does wonders. Have you seen that 40-year-old woman who looks like a 20-year-old after makeup?

I think fake eyelashes and double eyelid glue totally lifted half of my face! One side has fresh makeup on with eyeshadow and eyebrows drawn while the other is old makeup since morning. Goodness.

It actually looks pretty natural, and opens up my eyes.  I didn't even put mascara.

I guess I still need some practice and find some time to do a full makeup before the actual day.
