Travel : Floriade Festival at Canberra

Outfit of the day
Blouse – Vintage store
Shorts & Headband – Supre
Bag – MNG

Last spring, went over to Canberra to witness the awesomely beautiful Floriade Festival! Floriade festival is basically a flower and entertainment festival held annually in Canberra’s Commonwealth park featuring extensive displays of flowering bulbs with integrated sculptures and other artistic features. Floriade comes from the Latin word floriat, which means to design with flowers.

Each year is celebrated with different themes, which is mostly why visitors like me keep coming back for more. When I first step inside the park, those colorful array of flowers literally went all fangirling over it !!Besides going for the floriade festival, we also drop by the parliament house and had decent lunch there. By night, we already reach back to Sydney (its only 2-3hours away from sydney). What a colorful noon that day was!

Till the next post ❤

Palty and Liese Hair Dye Review

Dying my hair with Palty Hair Dye in Bleach Natural Brown + Liese Mocha Orange

As you know from my previous post back, I dyed my hair using Palty cream hair dye in natural brown bleach and Liese bubble hair dye in Mocha Orange. Now, I wasn’t originally plan in mixing them like that until when I was applying my Palty then I realise it wasnt enough for even covering 1/2 of my hair (my hair was only covered less than 1/4 when the bottle is used up :x). So I just grabbed my extra stock of bubble hair dye and mixing them afterwards. Note: when you mix cream and bubble they wont foam as much , just carefully make sure you’re MIXING the colour whilst applying not LAYERING them!

Cream hair dye colors tend to show up more than bubble hair dye. However, if you’re like me having long hair and stuff,  I will very much prefer even applying process – Bubble hair dye.See my review on youtube here (my first ever video review in this new channel!)  

Watch it in Youtube!
Apologies if the quality is mediocre, I will be using a more HD camera in the future!

Anyway here it is after under room light

Overall : 4/5

★★★★

I will probably buy the Bubble hair one next time for the sake of easy appliance. But other than that its all good 😀

Life is like a cup of tea, its all in how you make it.

So I finally enrolled in 3114 , thankfully timetable still looking good!


(see, still have my Monday and Fridays off!)

Now that one stressful decision been strike off, next up is results. You know how at the beginning of every semester you seem to be very motivated all of a sudden, you have this ‘resolution’ list came up with full of ‘I will, I will’ but all seemed to be ignored when the semester start. I hope this time is different for me. So a little about me , I’m currently on an internship with vodafone and very happy about that so far , it makes my life more fulfilling with those experience. Though I could not help but to look forward in a bit , so I went on for a job application spree,came up with cover letters and the usual stuff (though there’s silly-but-pretty-serious-accident involved as i send those job application, but ohwell). 

Alex Farewell

Alex’s going to UCLA for an exchange studies, so we not gonna see him till next year.

Meanwhile heres a snap of me after the hair color

Post-Exam

Uni

So basically my exams ended on 18th June , which apparently was the first day of final exam week. Dont get me wrong though , I have had my exams for other subjects weeks before the final exam. I have had good rest , been up all night catching up on The Office (I’m up on season 7 now!).

 I’m keeping a list of everyone who wrongs me so when I’m back on top, they’ll be sorry.

(The Office’s [B.J Novak as Ryan] “I’m keeping a list of everyone who wrongs me so when I’m back on top, they’ll be sorry.”) The day when I just done with exams, I was really feeling unhappy. I dont know what and why , I just feel unhappy. Well , part of it maybe due to the exam being so mathematically involved, it was supposed to be a marketing exams but they involve slight statistics in it (which I very much dreaded)Photobucket. That being said, that night I saw one of the subjects was 1 mark away from achieving a certain grade. Feeling hopeless, I sent an email to my tutor to ask for the overall mark being up 1 mark. I was really scared, scared that my marks might be lowered instead, scared that it left unreplied etcetera. But hey, theres no harm in trying! Next morning, I woke up feeling much better , got my brain all calmed down. I tried to arrange timetable, only come to one problem; I can’t fixed the subject the ideal way I want. I took spanish on semester 1 and it was extremely fast-paced, weekly test and all that. Its manageable but I just won’t take it to the next level anymore. I wanted to take Chinese , I have background in it. Problem is that I can only take starting from level 1b ( can’t take 1a cause I have used up all the junior level unit study). I know this sound really complex, but I finally came up with actual and alternative plan after much painstaking brainstormPhotobucket I’ve appointment with the Chinese department for interview to waive the pre-requisite unit set on 23rd July , I’m nervous but for better for worse I have enrolled in my alternative plan now.You know, just as a pre-caution incase I didnt get Chinese (Which my negativity thought is leaning towards now).So here’s a glimpse of timetable I have now : I’m taking 2 Ibus and 2 Mktg subject. Even though theres alot of uncertainty , but i’ve come up with it anyway..Hopefully things went smoothly. Results out by 2 July another thing that freak me out 😦

Road Trip !

This is the aspect that I most look forward to. I’m going for a short trip to Brisbane + Gold Coast with small company. I dont dread small company, in fact I love it. Sure, misery love company but seriously sometimes it is the company that causes those misery. Anyway, we have bought the accommodation, tickets and even came up with the itennary all planned outPhotobucket Will be blogging on the trip so stay tuned too 😉

Updates on me;

So last month I got a job , really happy on it , mainly because it keeps me busy and lost track of time. In a way, it keeps me away from having train of negative thoughts. Yes, I have been struck with lots of emo feeling this days, I wish I could end it but seriously I couldnt and it annoys the hell out of me  . Anyway, I have just dyed my hair with Palty Cream Hair Dye ( Bleach Natural Brown far left) + Liese Bubble Hair Dye (Mocha Orange far right) .

I must say, lesson learnt, I innitially bought Palty Cream dye cause their colours shows up more than the bubble hair dye, but seriously I used up that I bottle with my hair hardly covered.  Next time , I will just solely buy bubble hair dye, its quicker, spreads more evenly and all. In case you’re wondering , yes. I very much prefer DIY japanese hair dye than going salon. Most of the time I went salon , the color either didnt show or no difference and because of my length at least I will be charged $300 ! mehh :/ 20120622-222357.jpg I will post a more detailed one on the before afters soon ( the above pic of mine is taken before the hair dye) Till the next update, have a nice day!
