Wonderlust ♥

i have a hard time deciding on the audience of this blog .
mostly i feel my posts could be openly read because there isnt too much personal content but occassionally i have my doubts on this stand . im not as closed as certain people and i have no qualms about letting certain things be known , but on the other hand being as i am i dislike people knowing certain things as well . i'm terribly selective .

and every time i state things like this , i will add another point to my contradictory nature . honestly maybe i really do have a split personality .

mostly though , as strange as it is , i write for my own personal satisfaction but i do admit it may be useful for future and current affairs . if i make this blog public and slowly garner viewership , its good because when people are interested in you or your matters , you will get a following which is an essential to market anything you want to market .

cons of posting publicly is that i will feel restricted by the viewership and limit or change the content i post , which in turn results in loss of personal satisfaction . Of course i actually created a tumblr account for the very purpose of posting content separate from this blog but i got lazy . it's part of my 2013 resolution actually to post at least once every week on tumblr , but i may start early , lets see how it goes .

my next point is about me and studies and me and work .

it's no secret that i prefer work to studies as i get paid , plus studying is more of a chore . since i am more of a perfectionist , i tend to work hard or even extra hard when i find something i am good at or i like to do . i am neither good nor pleased with accounting and finance so i lack motivation for the field . while im working i cant possibly take an arts course as well since there wont be enough time to juggle both .

i hate to pointlessly part with my money which is why im not studying at the moment .

savings is important so i don't want to splurge everything on studying .
and i kind of don't get the picture why most people maintain a mindset that studies are a must .
maybe it's because i don't have great ambitions or that i just want to have a simple life so my views slightly differ . i refuse to live a tiring life so to me what im having now is fine , although it could be considered something like putting all my eggs in one basket .

if i spend $20k to study for 3 years , how much can i get with my new qualification is subjective .
if i can get a $300 pay increase every year , my pay would probably be about the same as if i obtain that degree and start work . i don't know . am i naive or is society too complicated ?

actually my childhood ambition was to be an artist . but there has been certain improvisations made to this plan as i don't believe i can survive comfortably with this as my sole occupation .
well , given hard work put in after or while saving more money , i probably could venture into publishing books or manga or maintain a site that generates income , or run a shop that sell things ; all of which i am very much eying with a quizzical air . what are the chances given the odds really . but even that being said , these are the things that i would like doing , so i wouldn't mind trying .

another thing i don't mind doing as a sideline as well would be fashion .

because i did seriously consider this , i know it's not easy and it would require a lot of effort . nothing is an easy investment . as i am still enjoying my carefree life i feel it isn't the time to start yet but it is a gradual process so i presume i should start being more active *stops to ponder*

ok enough of heavier than usual shit . i promise to photo blog next . bai ♥

honestly someone like you with someone like me . doesnt stop me thinking about it .

& i will begin my new morning regime hopefully tomorrow .
today's short post is just for me to show off my new shoes ~

like them loads cuz the model reminds me of jeffrey campbell nightwalk !
(which i super super like and blogged about before)

this here is nightwalk:

(again i posted this before)
 
nightwalk comes in a lot of colours and editions :D
this is and the one above are my favourites .


and these are mine:
 like them ?

its comfy too . took it for a spin today and im liking it :D
pretty cheap , so , pretty + comfy + economical , tell me why i should not be smitten .

since i discovered the collage app:

and i come back from a week of absence to blog to you about hair !
once again eheh .

but you'll have to pardon me cuz i've been uncharacteristically hardworking the whole of last week .
slept at 12 plus to 1 plus daily as i either reach home late from going out sessions/gym , or i spend the time preparing a small farewell gift for the attachment students at my office .

chibi versions of themselves:

normally i don't bother with gifts unless i want to show my appreciation or i want to do something nice .
gifts as in self made or bought , but they have been great to work with and for so many months it feels strange to part abruptly !

surprisingly i survived with little sleep and managed not to look cui for the whole of the week .
must be the positive energy :D

on to hair , if you have my facebook you may or may not realize i went for a haircut with my colleagues yesterday . albeit the slight bias on my side , the verdict is i like my new haircut ~
*hums happily*

here is the collage i made:

on the day itself with blow dry:

today- one day after with no blow dry:

(1st collage has lousier quality because pictures are take with webcam)
blow dry makes puffier and rounder at the back but i can do without .
without makes me look more guyish heh :D

the previous hair i had which i decided i didnt like was something like this:


since then evolved into something more like this:


if you cant already tell the difference you can refer to my blog post back in july .
i dislike even edges and i like jagged .
also i like volume at the top (crown of the head) and not at the ends .

what im having now is a concave at the back only and of course without the even ends.
so both my likes are there , im pleased ~

sadly it's hard to show my ears since the hair doesnt seem to stay behind too well , but still manageable .

the next thing about hair i'm going to share with you about may be useful if you have long fringe like me :D
i decided long fringe suits me better than bangs so i'm keeping it this way .
but just last week , i decided to try out GD's signature seaweed hair
(which actually i've seen around in quite a couple of ppl and anime characters before him)

it looks super nice in photos i tell you :x

right ? hehe .
got all on the first try ;D

but anyway , what i wanted to share is because i didnt want to rush the next day , i kept it parted for the entire night the other way , meaning actually my orginal parting parts to the left , but i parted it extreme right instead for the hair as shown above .

i changed back to it to my original parting though because the left side of my face felt exposed (thin arrow) , thick arrow shows the parting:

what i discovered though , if you change it back to the original parting , your fringe will become more voluminous because air has been trapped (i think) . works for me anyway . can try it out if you want to ! :)

disclaimer: no guaranteed results

after our haircut ystd we went for food and shopping at yishun .
lucky my haul = 1 only .

this piece was nt bad but material pricky and free size so it makes you look a little fat .
 hood ♥
 the only thing i got was this pair of shorts !

and that's all for now ~
bai ♥

This is once again an entry about my likes and mish mash of thoughts with no direction whatsoever ,
but i hope you'll like it nonetheless :p
who am i kidding really .

side note: there's still 4 months to go till 2013 and i already know what to wish for the upcoming new year !
simple things and simple resolutions as usual but i'll blog about those in 4 months time .

i've been listening to more music lately as i've been desperately trying to expand my music library so i'll use this opportunity to tell you about more artists i like .

normally for girl groups i tend to prefer the short hair one in the group .
since you probably already know my ardent liking for minzy ,
i take it there's no need to post another picture of her :p

probably my second favourite (for girl groups) would be amber from f(x):

rocking my fav hairstyle thr :D

mostly i like her dance and style !

this is useful for my dnd reference too eh . XD

and surprisingly today i found another mv i really like since monster-
ellie goulding anything could happen:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hzgS9s-tE8&feature=branded

furthermore it's for an english song !

haha i dont know , maybe i just have a soft spot for soft surrealistic and dreamlike music videos .
(didnt like katy perry's wide awake as much though somehow)
plus i like her hairstyle and hair colour in this one , the light eyebrows are cute . indie pop ^^
i like her voice too :)
imo , it's good to be flashy and all and as a matter of fact flashy goes down well with me .
idk what's wrong with angry ppl that like to criticize the style of an artist ; you might have certain preferences , but ultimately music and style is an expression and that is not up to you to decide . really isnt any of your problem too on a personal level either .

some photos !

from the mv

give it a try !

and that's all about artists .

i know it's past 5th september but you know , better late then never and it's a perfect excuse to post more pictures of sir crocodile , so here you have them . sort of in order by preference and none are mine , mostly from pixiv/tumblr .
♥♥♥

oh and i cant understand this ship but oh well , as long as crocodile is cute:

thanks to these dedicated/talented artists i have a stash of new crocodile pictures . it's good he hasn't been forgotten . now im thinking to complete my kidlaw picture by their birthdays too . kid's is january 10th , law's  october 6th so yep probably october the 6th although i like kid better :x

still very much in love with my new stash ♥

will post the rest another time , but do drop me a note if you want them . going to sleep with sweet dreams . goodnight all :D

manga entry somewhat

I know this may seem a little overrated/overdue/overreacting and sometimes i feel too old for this kind of thing , plus you may not really appreciate this post but i still have to rant !

warning: spoilers ahead

idk why no matter for whichever series of anime i catch , the author always decides that my favourite character has to lose an arm . im serious , no matter how big or small the character is . which in turn leaves me a little bemused on how the authors decide these things .

to give you a list of what i remember offhand :

rave master - shuda
tsubasa reservior chronicles - kurogane
bleach - grimmjow
one piece - crocodile & eustass kid
katekyo hitman reborn - xanxus

ok so grimmjow got his arm back and im assuming crocodile doesnt have an arm under his hook , but still . to be honest i dont mind them losing an arm cuz its defintely better than them being killed off .

and im realllly worried for xanxus ! :(

sigh . now i know how gin and ace fans feel .

xanxus and squalo are in mortal danger but im hoping they dont die on me .
squalo too cuz xanxus and squalo is sweet .

mostly xanxus and squalo:


wouldn't it be such a waste ?
*pardon if i posted some of these before and none of the 5 pictures are mine*

being sick sucks and im super sleepy right now .
turning in for an early night again and lets hope im fit enough for gym tmr , plus hoping for a speedy recovery .

thanks for dropping by !
