i have a few things to do.
i have to go for my pracs regularly.
no more holiday for me.
if i keep going on holidays, when m i ever going to pass.
besides, i seriously think i wont be able to complete and pass the entire thing by September.
so, i will have to extend my course and hopefully complete and pass everything before my brother enrolls.

a few other things, Bangkok trip will be either in November or December.
I have to start saving money to bring to Thailand.
even though, im going with my family,
i still have to come up with the flight fares on my own.
hmph.

plus, Brother already knows what he wants for his bdae.
we went to check it out the other day.
the watch's about $400.
since we have already agreed that we'll pay half each,
I have to come up with $200 for that.
Plus, Father's bdae is within that month.
& I do not know what to give him this year.
however, i do know what I'm going to give my mother.
and yes, she finally used her wallet today.
Dad has yet to use his wallet though.

for this month, there're a few bdaes.
i didnt manage to plan/buy/meet anything for the July bdae babies.
so, hoping to meet the girls this month.
hopefully everyone's free so we can celebrate it at one go.
was looking through a few cupcake bakers.
im not big on the whole pretty decorated cupcakes.
i'd prefer more flavourful cupcakes.
Hanita Cups 'N' Cakes are no longer making cupcakes.
hers are not only flavourful but she manages to create beautiful cupcakes according to our requests.
I will try to persuade the 2 to get the cupcakes from these 2 bakers.

since im not working and I have lots and lots of spare time,
I'm at home being Martha Stewart.
Redecorating here and there. Painting.
Sewing. Going to Garden Fests. haha.
so so fun, i tell you.

The Living Room/Dining Room/Balcony is half done.
The area behind the door is done!
and that was one of the main achievement.
just looking at it makes me smile.
(:
no more clutter and stupid unnecessary things behind the door.
no more shoes in boxes and all ard the area.
im also trying to get rid of boxes one by one.
the balcony area/computer area is half done.
Im left with painting one small corner and putting up the mirrors.
ive yet to buy fabrics to make the curtains, pillow covers and also table runners.
what else?
ouh yeah and fresh flowers, rugs and doormats.
i'm desperately trying to get rid of all the clutter in the house.
will definitely take pictures of the house once it's done.
hopefully soon!

if, i still have lots of spare time and im not working yet.
I'll definitely clear up the kitchen as well.
plus my room is still half way done.
i will still have to get rid of lots of things.
the only thing i want to keep is the bed and the wardrobe (which unfortunately, i cant do anything to it since it's attached to the wall).
and if, i still have lots of time, I'll try clearing Brother's room as well.
so many things to do, so little time.
it's hard being Martha, wonder how she does it.
ouh well, she probably has helpers helping her.

im not a big fan of make-up.
i really am not, sometimes when i go out, i can be make-upless and it dont bother me.
i always find it amusing when someone takes so much effort and just putting so many skin care products on their skin.
now, i finally understand why.
and with that, ive been doing research on a few products for my skin type.
i realise that I've made certain mistakes in the past.
If always used liquid foundation, which was a BIG BIG no no for my skin type.
as I have oily skin, I DEFINITELY CANNOT use liquid foundation.
it will definitely makes it even oilier, which of cause ive experience it in the past.
and there's a new item/product in the market; foundation primers.
is this new? if it's not, forgive me. for my iq of make-up products is relatively low.
so i find that, after you exfoliate your skin, you're supposed to tone your skin, moisturize it and den use this foundation primer as your make up base.
seems like so much of work.
plus the concealer, the foundation, the powder, the this the that.
no wonder, i couldnt b bothered.
haha.
however, I AM interested to try this product.
i would like to see the power of it.
whether it can really hide my pores, impurities in the skins or what-nots.
seriously, i envy people with smooth, healthy, blemished-less skins.

so I did a few more research to find the best primers for my skin type.
Cliniques' Instant Prefector has had good reviews.
Laura Merciers' Oil-Free Primer has had good reviews too.
I shall try Cliniques' Instant Prefector first. and see whether it works.
since it can be worn on it's on, I shall see the magic it can do to my skin.
