For those of you who know my intense fear and dislike of my own birthday and think I have gone insane and decided to celebrate it two months later, never fear. It was one year ago that I decided to start my own blog after reading others for so long. Out of sheer boredom during the long Summer months and to cheer myself up after a woeful year, I took to writing. To keep myself amused, keep myself calm and quell the boredom that consumed my life. What I didn't really expect was that anyone, let alone eight hundred and eight of you (plus my sister who I am sure stalks me daily) would take interest in anything I had to say. Yet one year, 365 days, ninety-two posts, and some very dodgy pictures later : here we are.

When I first started this blog, I kept it under wraps from my friends/family/whoever for fear of embarrassment. And while sometimes I cringe that people I know read it, its quite nice to know they bother. While I did slightly enjoy having a 'secret life' apart from everyone I knew, it really brings a smile to my face when one of them mentions something I've written. Mortified. But thanks. So if you do know me IRL, make yourself known; or else I'd feel like a right twat!

Without ranting too much about how this little space on the internet has changed my life, which it has; I want to say thank you. Thanks to everyone who stumbled upon my little 'space' and decided to follow or even read, thanks to everyone who has commented on a post I've written, thanks to everyone who has emailed me asking for advice or just to chat and thanks to all the lovely and amazing girls I have met through my obsession with beauty and make up, especially the lovely Hannah , and Aoife. So I guess the whole point of this ramble of a post is to say thank you...Yup. Here's to another year, I hope!

Happy Monday!

Laura's birthday party

Laura's birthday was on last Friday and we arranged a little party on Saturday.


Birthday girl glass Jae and I bought for Laura! :D


We bought pizza and made chicken salad~ Besides we had ice cream cake and chips but we weren't able to eat that much haha.

I don't understand how we totally forgot to take a photos of everything! O.O Like Laura's b-day gift, food and so on. We just took a huge amount of dorky video clips that night. A video will be in the end of this post XD


We didn't even camwhore that much! Only a few pics.


I really like how my Bambi Apple Green lenses look in those photos ^o^


Omg hair everywhere!




Going out! My face looks so sweaty eh :'D


Was trying to look cool. I have no idea what's up with my face XD

Playsuit H&M
Bag H&M
Pumps Andiamo


..But then I couldn't help being just myself. Or "freaky lizard" as in Jae's words ;''D

And then THE VIDEO. It's from Jae's channel, no subs this time.

... I have nothing much to say XD Expect at 3:54 I resemble some ugly alien creature making strange voice from some horror movie.

Anti-Bant 20th Birthday

If you have seen this video you will know that I despise my birthday. Ever since I was a little girl, my birthday is something that I try not to celebrate; I find it awkward, embarrassing and just plain awful. So when the day finally arrived, I did my best to detract the attention away from it. However, I did get some lovely presents (which I'm thankful for today, obviously!), had a nice dinner with the family, and spent the evening with my best friend whose come home from Canada, as I really didn't want to have a party or celebrate. So I have now left the teenage years and am seeing what life is like in the big 2-0's. My wish for no birthday cake and no singing Happy Birthday were sadly ignored..

some of the letters I got from the family - some of the birthday cards - birthday face of the day - products used - the beautiful present my wonderful sister sent from Canada - birthday cake - myself and my best friend

Products used on face: L-R - MAC Painterly Paintpot, Laura Mercier Secret Concealer, Maybelline Mascara, MAC Shadows in Patina (top row, fourth from right), Satin Taupe (Middle row, fourth from right), Brule and Cork, Chanel Pro Lumiere, MAC Melba Blush, MAC Harmony Blush (as contour), Jemma Kidd Bio Veil Complex

My lovely birthday girl








Laura and Kreetta


Free starters yay ( Ｔ ▽ Ｔ )ノ


I took mozzarella sticks as my dinner
As I'm such a poor I can't really afford restaurant food o(>< )o
But those sticks were super cheesy and greasy so that's why I was totally full after eating them ＼（（＠o＠））／






With my beloved girlies
