Whenever the year end creeps into everyone's lives slowly, I will cringe slightly at the thought of my birthday as I really didn't like the number that tells how I should behave but I guess it all depends on an individual's judgement! :smile: Buttttt I guess 21 isn't such a bad thing, since all your presents will be tripled or quadrupled *wishful thinking!*. :twisted: For this year, I'm really grateful that my parents took the initiative to plan out a birthday party for me and even going the extra mile by giving me a key pendant necklace for my birthday present. Though it might seem cliché to some, it represents something more special than anything that anyone could ask for and for me, it is just so amazing and lucky that my parents got me this. :smile: I hadn't had a party s[...]

After getting a good night rest from the night before, it was a full day out in Holland visiting cities such as Rotterdam and Amsterdam. We headed to a diamond factory for the first thing in the morning because nothing wakes you up better than having diamonds in your hands! The Gassan Diamond Factory is made up of a few floors. Each room I walk past in the factory, they looked like laboratory rooms meant for chemical scientists that you would commonly find in the movies! But of course, it's filled with diamond experts instead. :smile: Doesn't this just looked like a scene stripped right off a milk advertisement?! I would always think that I could only see this in New Zealand but apparently that's not the case because there are more sheeps there! So,[...]

I hadn't been blogging for a month and this makes me feel like a sluggg!! I've actually had this post lying in my drafts for a really long time because I've been working REALLY HARD on my studies enjoying my trip back home too much with food showers. Therefore, while my brain is on a long break, I'm just going to use every ounce of energy I have left in me to write up on my Europe trip! So I was still around in Germany in Day 5 and it was tiring because we're moving from one country to another everyday! I certainly felt like a Nomad! :mrgreen: Nothing spells a good breakfast without a warm cup of english breakfast tea on a cold and gloomy day! We were taken to a tiny town to catch the ferry to Cologne, Germany. But there was an hour till the ferry came, so we walked b[...]

Helloooo! So I hadn't been blogging cause I'm so addicted to Sims on Facebook that I've neglected my blog has been undergoing some system upgrade and changing of servers. Anyways, it'll be my first shift participating in the Perth Fashion Festival tomorrow so wish me luck! If i may, I will take some backstage photos for you guys to see. I'm just too excited being able to work as a dresser for prestigious designers in this coming week!!! Plus, multicultural week is kicking off on this coming Monday so it's going to be a busy week! :mrgreen: I've still got much to talk about my Europe trip and I'm only halfway through Day 4!! Continuing my trip from Lucerne, we departed on bus to Germany. On the way to Germany itself, we stopped by a scenic spot which overlooks one of the lo[...]

For our third day, woke up to a beautiful morning sunshine which I'm eternally grateful for because it has been raining for the past two days! In my entire trip, I must say that Lucerne is one city that I came to love a lot. It's so pretty in terms of scenery and I would want to live here when I'm old!!! Have you ever guys been torn on what to have for breakfast because the spread is soo mouth tantalizing!! So that explains the cereal (OH.MY.GOD, the best cereals I've taken because I've added walnuts and honey nuts inside!!) and the other plate meh hehe. I'm supposed to eat like a king for breakfast right!? What I love about travelling is that we cover a whole lot of distance by foot so that's definitely some great exercise! We wal[...]

I'm having mixed emotions today because of my weird encounter with a stranger at the train station. So there I was minding my own business, with my earphones on playing the list of songs fro mmy phone while people watching, THIS MAN on my left raised his voice a few times to say hello to me. Now of course, any sane person like me wouldn't answer to the first few hellos because I've always smiled or waved at people whom I think was saying Hello to me, but really it was to the person behind me. Hence, I ignored him, thinking that he wasn't calling out to me! Not giving up, he waved his hand over just inches away from my face, that I could literally feel the wind caused by his hand movements. We ended up talking about Angry Birds WTF because he assumed I was playing that game on [...]

Melissa : Hello Daddy can I speak to you? Daddy and Mummy : WHY? WHAT DO YOU WANT TO BUY AGAIN? Melissa : *giggles like a schoolgirl* They know me too well -.- Please pardon my short absence as I was having the time of my life coughing my lungs out when I got back from my trip! And I've been recuperating in the corner ever since. :cry: Nevertheless, it was definitely one of the best trips that I'll keep close to my heart because my daddy had promised to take me to Europe when I was ten and I'll be constantly reminding him of how he didn't keep his promise at the end of every year for a decade. So I could literally say that this is my long awaited trip and I thank you so much for keeping your word and making it happen! :razz: To start with, it was definitel[...]

DON'T JUDGE ME BY THE TITLE!! :razz: I've got so many backdated posts to blog on so I'm doing my best to draft a few posts today so you will know what's been keeping me busy for the last few months! :smile: Anddddd I was supposed to blog during my Easter break but I got so held up by my assignments, I couldn't even have time to go out!!! YES I was so depressing, I stayed at home for 4 days straight so that I could force myself to finish up my work! This is the first dress I've ever ever sewn in my life! Thoughts? For your information, it couldn't fit anyone/NOT EVEN A MANNEQUIN because as I was sewing, it just gets smaller and smaller HHHAHA!! And that's two pages of my Research Portfolio!! :razz: Thank God, the days are passing by so fast that I have a day or t[...]

For TWO separate days, I managed to say NO to a cape coat that I've been searching for so long. On these two days, I managed to try on it and thinking it will be gone by the next day! Note that these two days are a few days apart! BUT NOOOO MY SIZE IS STILL HERE TODAY!! Plus my mum even said I could get it and she would sponsored half because I've been talking and talking about it. Lo and behold, I didn't get it in the end! *breathes a sigh of relief!* I was immensely surprised with my new-found attitude so I decided to gave myself a good pat! AND THE THING IS, I'M THINKING OF BUYING SOME OTHER THINGS TO REWARD MYSELF WTF HAHAHAHAHHA THE IRONY!!! :roll: Last Sunday, I had the longest one hour long walk because I was so desperate to get lace trimmings and Tangled pillowcase[...]
