Wonderlust ♥

where do i go from here

Because I have the mood for it, this is a random post about how I spend my days together with some musings and the wishlist I have at the moment. Also written with proper punctuation and grammar, because I do in fact know how to and it's always good to try something different once in awhile :)

For a brief period of time today, my initial plan was to head down to Far East to get a haircut but I decided against it as I was put off by the weather. Scorching weather makes me lazy to get out of the house so i figured a blog post was as good as any, since one was due anyway.

If I may say so once again, I don't normally take much food pictures, so let me start of by showing you the 2 I salvaged; or rather specifically made it a point to take-

my weekend lunch for yesterday and today!

Saturday was portobello florentine from Maison Ikkoku (20 Kandahar St)
It tasted great, and I really like how their greens came with 3 balls of watermelon.
Yup, they are not tomatoes but watermelon!


& Sunday was home cooked chicken curry by my mommy which was yummy. 


Also I've got to say again that I really like my hair colour as it is right now and I'm probably going to do something similar the next time I dye my hair (which is probably happening in say 2, 3 months?).
I kind of like how the dip dye effects of black and ash brown come together but I want to do a lighter shade plus some lighter highlights the next dip dye! Currently though, I feel it looks good in photos no matter what filter I use! but it could be nicer if the ends are brighter, some photos for you to see once again :D


On a side note, I realized that I also tend to dig guys with black hair: Wolverine, Loki, Diaval, Crocodile, Xanxus, Kenpachi, Kurogane etc. :p

The last photo of me also shows the new member of my stuff toy family- Peppermint!

Tiger having fun with peppermint and merlyn and me bringing home our craftholics :D


The newest member of my family is Happy, an african grey parrot that you may have seen me post on my instagram. Here is a latest photo taken today, he is getting chubbier!


and...

Here is something I wanna have!
Comfy looking pool slide slippers, the one in black of course.


and this is something i got recently, a blue asymmetrical skirt:


Currently though my wishlist is a new bed set which preferably includes a new bed, mattress and wardrobe with a full length mirror. so now you know where my bonus will go to.

Also my health has been kinda sucky lately so I'm going for a dental checkup which hopefully turns out fine as I have 2 wisdom teeth, of which one of them is already 3/4 grown. I'm hoping I don't have to do an extraction :(

Of course if there is a need to then I suppose I'll just suck it up.

And then see how it goes.

If everything turns out fine with my teeth I'll probably see a dermatologist then to deal with my annoying outbreaks. Because I normally have acne which forms under the skin surface :(
Sucks to have health issues. Boo!

On a better note, thanks for dropping by and I will try to update again soon! :)

it's funny how i keep the things that i don't need
it's funny how it always makes me resentful 
i know i only have myself to blame
but i'll tell myself it doesn't matter if i can take it stride
still it doesn't change the fact that i shouldn't be keeping the things i don't need .


Hello good morning/afternoon/evening whateves !

spent too long from creating this entry to not typing anything that i can't phantom what is an appropriate greeting .

anyway it looks like my posts have really become a monthly occurrence :x

it's because at times like now i don't feel as though i have anything to blog about .
how have your weeks been though ?

me personally , i really like the movies i've caught lately ,
said movies being: godzilla , x-men: days of future past and maleficient .

i liked x-men the best , followed my maleficient and then godzilla .

x-men was because of the wow factor due to the many action scenes plus my fav mutant wolverine :)
well i gotta say that for this movie i liked quicksilver and mystique too.
more so of mystique , so many cool fight scenes and we get to see her growing up and discovering herself .

maleficient was super save the ending , really liked how the movie played out plus i ship maleficient and diaval *cough*

godzilla's ending was good though :)

oh well , all 3 are in my 'definitely must watch list' so do catch it if you haven't !

my super long weekend is coming to a close and it's back to work for me tomorrow .
i really think i need a longer break than just this :x
still its better then nothing .

ending off with some one eye contact pics cuz i seldom don on contacts !
they are really tiring though and i don't think i like them all so much .

(ps wore both contacts out in the end of course)


Cheers , till next time !

it's a force field
*updated 01.05.2014*

Ohai !
So sorry for the super long hiatus !
i've been so busy and loaded with work plus personal activities that i find it hard to make time to even turn on my laptop . most of the time when i reach home i concuss on the bed , do some mild net surfing with my ipad and then wishing i have more time to myself .

yes life has been sad like that , but it's not all that bad ; it is actually quite good .
it's just that i could really do with more time .

to make it up to you guys though , this is a superrr long post . (becuz of the super alotta pictures :p)
and becuz yours truly has been rather productive as of late ; as of late referring to past few weeks .

the first set of pictures that i have for y'all will be food pictures becuz i've made it a point to capture 1 in 5 proper food shots for this post , to make it up to all/any readers as i have not blogged for such a long time .

touched much ? :p

so here's to my much loved drinks and desserts:

mocha @ ronin
iced mocha

after much deliberation , i got to say i still can't decide whether i prefer the mocha warm or iced .
warm on one hand is sweeter with more thickness , which translates to it having more milk and you know how much i like milk , but iced is prefect for the weather we have , plus it has a more distinct coffee aroma . well , i guess i'll just have to alternate .


himalayan tea @ mccafe

this is easily accessible and an instant perk me up so i love it to bits . i've been told it's a little unique so you may want to go easy on the dosage on your 1st try to ascertain if it suits you .


ice honey latte @ mado

it's great on the visuals and scores mid-high points for the taste but this drink is not something that addicts my taste buds all that much .

strawberry tofu cheesecake and red velvet cheescake @ cake spade

the blueberry white tea was just meh.
cakes were really good and filing though :)

here's some brunch !
 drury lane . ran outta pancakes on the day i went :(

moving on from food , here's some personal stuff i did that i feel rather accomplished about .
fugishidane nano block which i completed 100% of successfully .
the first nano block was 90% completed by mom which is another story for another day if ever .

accomplishment level: 6/10
recent buy- new pretty colour pencils to werk it 

now here is my greatest recent accomplishment , a waterfall card :3
i happened to chance upon one and was immediately curious as to how it works so i watched a couple of videos and made my own !

waterfall card accomplishment level: 9/10

here is how the mechanism works , it's a flip card of sorts , you pull and it flips :
 super pleased with how it turned out :)

it's getting late and i need to sleep so just let me end off by saying i've been keeping fit too !
(ok really but not really since it's with such a rarity i do these walks)
henderson waves conquered heh .

went for ilight marinabay walkabout sometime ago too which i didn't enjoy that much cuz i wasnt in appropriate attire and was super tired after work .

all in all , thanks for dropping by !
promise more content for my next post or an update on this post the upcoming week~ :D

the reason why ive been blogging less lately is the same reason given for the past few occasions:

i've been too lazy beyond comprehension . 

yup , the laze bug has hit again so i haven't exactly been spending time productively on the things i enjoy doing . it's not just limited to blogging . you know how being too busy does that to one :x .
of course i'll be working around gathering motivation and re-wiring my mindset again !

anyhoo , there is something i want to confess .

mainly this entry stems from the fact that i've been unable to use my voice properly since 2 days ago . it's a case of lost voice , hence penning down my thoughts in writing is strangely extra empowering . ironic thing about this is that upon discovery that my voice has disappeared on the first day , my mood went through 3 fluctuations namely: frustrated , amused , resigned

realizing i had trouble making orders was what contributed to the frustration and trying and failing to hold a proper conversation with friends contributed to the amusement . last but not least i resigned myself to fate that my voice will probably take some time to return .

i'm on the road to recovery after eating the meds given by the doctor yesterday . plus loads of rest of course .  it's good to be able to talk again ! never realized how much i'd like to till then . funny how that's always the case .

that's all for my status update :)

now here are 2 basic tank tops i picked up today:

obligatory since photos always gets me in the mood for blogging .

sorry that this is a short post , i'm working tomorrow hence time to pick out an outfit and rest early ~ tata ~ hope so see this space again soonish !

Good afternoon peeps !

so just the other day mokona was telling me that my posts are becoming a monthly occurrence which is really not a good thing . hence here i am with a bi-monthly for y'all :)

unfortunately since there isn't much to blog about these days , this will be another narcissistic one .

*cough* do excuse me . first of all though here is the progress thus far on my tyranitar gijinka:
 
since the gijinka's almost done i'm counting this whole piece as 70% complete .
cute ain't he ? hehe . lately i seem to have a thing going on for everything loki-esque .
hence the colour theme and fanfics and matt healy . google if you really have to know :p

and this is my other love at first sight:

Goa Magara Black 3DS LL monster hunter limited ed.
http://www.siliconera.com/2013/06/03/a-closer-look-at-the-monster-hunter-4-limited-edition-3ds-xl-systems/

i sincerely really don't think i can resist this for long .

in the clothes department , i've got a few new pullovers and here is the latest:
ugh eyebags .
so shortly after this i went to do my hair although u probably cant really tell the difference cuz ...
it's subtle dip dye !

will be maintaining my half black , half ash brown mane .
difference can't really be seen in photos but here is one under strong light:

jamie did a section red too . 


that's all !
be seeing you guys soon (i hope)
cheers to the remaining hours left till monday :)

let me know that i've done wrong , 
when i've known this all along .
 
First and foremost , happy CNY to you guys still keeping an eye on this space !

i know i've been terribly uninspiring lately ,
but after dealing with a truckload of work and personal matters i just don't have the energy to do anything else .

excuses excuses :p

but really , everything has sucked so much you don't even know .

if anything , my new year's resolution is always to be less lazy and more open to embracing positivity so we'll see how well that resolution works out this year .

anyhoo i've been watching a ton of movies lately such as ;
i,frankenstein , the four 2 , the monkey king , robocop .
and out of these movies in my opinion , four 2 was alright and the monkey king meh with four 2 being much much better than monkey king . and if you ask me to choose between i,frankenstein and robocop , it's i,frankenstein for me .

since most of the reviews you see floating around are pro robocop , here's my take .

spoilers alert

for one , in robocop i feel the main character alex really lacks depth . he doesn't have to make his own choices , his path is set for him to walk on . he walks on it alright and doesn't put up much of a fight ; it seems like he comes to terms and accepts his fate too easily without much of a struggle . but maybe its the lack of character development in the plot . oh and his background is too boring so nuh uh definitely not what i like . don't get me wrong though , the movie was good it's just the character that i find meh .

and so ... i prefer i,frankenstein . obviously you can see adam's character developing well . he's basically lost and trying to find himself , struggling in the process and the choices he makes are his own . not to mention , he is sometimes driven by rage but also has compassion . you must know i like characters like this :). though it was predictable and the ending felt kinda rushed the story in entirety was action packed and that's good enough for me . probably another plus point this movie does for me is that it involves supernatural beings which i much prefer over robots anytime .

with all these talk about movies , go catch frozen if you haven't (yup it's still in threatres)

it's good imo . one thing are the stunning character designs . i like the designs for both the sisters , elsa and anna , as well as kristoff . the movie has many twists to it too and it's entertaining throughout , even with all the singing (i kid you not , it's so much singing it feels like a musical) .
one mystery about frozen though , although i normally like complex characters , i find myself more drawn to anna . i would suppose that is because anna isn't a goody goody two shoes character , she breaks rules , plus she is strong in her way as she doesn't let anything bring her down . you don't see her hating on or resenting elsa when most probably would . you don't see her hating on or resenting hans too when most definitely would . kind of reminds me of someone hmm . anyway surprise surprise . told you i have really extreme tastes .

yuppie that's about it for movies . do let me know your preference too :)

now that movies are over and done with ,
cny thus far is pretty alright for me . not dreary at all and i got to play cards and mahjong .
and booze , one can never forget that . luck is pretty ok too .
so yay to cny ! #reallydreadgoingbacktoworkthough

cny day 1 ootd:
 day 1 shopping :3

 cny day 2 visiting the godbro's house :)

our hosts :D
(pictures taken from gene mom and gene facebook respectively)
  enjoy the rest of the weekends ! will be working on my tyranitar gijinka here :)

all that is gold does not glitter ,
not all those who wander are lost ;
the old that is strong does not wither ,
deep roots are not reached by the frost .

So sorry for the long hiatus !

it's just that every time i try to write , the words don't come out right .
so I've been giving up and going to sleep every single time .

i've also been having excessive moodswings lately .
it's funny . i will tend to view things with 2 very different stands or feelings each time , which obviously produces different results . it's either i lash out in anger or appeal to my better nature and give forgiveness for what it's worth . no point holding on to hard feelings right ?

or so i thought . seems that for me forgiveness comes and goes because whenever i go back to the topic , i'm still angry most of the time anyway . well it's just too bad for such assholes and bitches .

on a brighter note , this is my first post of 2014 ~

how i spent my countdown was swimming and stayover at merl's new treehouse ; not forgetting our memorable mcd's supper which we effectively trapped the delivery guy cuz he didn't have the card to come up the lift , didn't have any reception to call us , and didn't know how to operate the call function just outside the lift . as you can see , it was not all our fault .

31st dec 2013 was a really happy day for me too .
cuz i received my all time favourite presents from my all time favourite santa claus :3

presented here enjoying a choco banana crepe with me :
 see how overjoyed i am ?

psst my presents are 2 pullovers and a hoodie . debuting my new pullovers in this post ~
#1- kenzo paris pullover in blue
#2- kenzo paris knit pullover in red

this i absolutely positively adore :)

will it be too hot for cny ? *fiddles with fingers*

merl bought these using the app carousell , which lets you buy and sell things ~
i like it too cuz it's super easy to purchase stuff you fancy and the items are cheap :D

here are some fruits from my exploration which i really like too:

# chanel boy dark purple phone case (faux)
 # clear perspex clutch
the clutch that i wanna use for the wedding this upcoming sat ~
hopefully i manage to sell stuff too :3
whee . makes up for the sucky transport i've been facing since new year amongst other things .

i haven't been managing to arrive at my destinations at the time i plan thanks to the trains .
on top of that i get squashed almost everyday :/

sort of makes me wonder why i always start my day so angry .

anyway here's an extract of a post that i can totally relate too ~
cuz im lazy to blog anymore for now and i need sleeeep . enjoy !

I Could Fall In Love With You

Dec. 15, 2013
By Ella Ceron info
I could fall in love with you if you let me. It would be easy, you know.
If our eyes meet when we pass each other in the street or if I caught you looking my way on the subway for a second too long. It could, of course, be a simple coincidence—that you’re reading the ad above my head or just looking around right at the moment when I turn my head, too. But that’s what they call fate, isn’t it? Two people whose eyes meet across the crowded floor? Maybe I’ve been watching too many movies. It’s possible I have. But it’s possible that I could love you, too.

I could fall in love with you if you made me laugh, and if I could make you laugh in return.
If you smiled at me, if you made me feel that the smile was for me. And I know that chances are good it was only in the spirit of friendship, and that smiles can exist between friends. Isn’t that where love starts? And the more you laugh at something I say, the more I might give my heart to you in little pieces, like those puzzle piece prizes in cereal boxes you had to collect to see the whole image. If I gave it to you all in one piece, I’d have to do the same thing to everyone who smiled at me in that friendly sort of way, and I’d have no heart left to give. But I could give mine to you.

If you had the same coffee order as I do, if you ordered sweet potato fries instead of regular ones every time, if you ordered the same thing I did at the bar, we could laugh about the coincidence and I could fall in love with you a little more. Not because these things are any indicator of how you are as a person, or how compatible any two human beings are for one another, but they could be a start. It would be easy, I suppose, to remember the way you take your coffee and that you would rather have a bottle than a glass if I knew you liked things the way I liked them. It could make me feel closer to you, those traits and quirks we shared. If we had something in common, if we already agreed on something. We’d still have a long way to go toward love, but that might open the door.

I could fall in love with you if you let me. If you let me in on a secret and told me you liked Disney movies still, even as an adult. If you trusted me with the parts of you that seem so inconsequential and light, the details that aren’t loaded and heavy and rife with conflict. But trust me with those ones, too, the heavy things that haunt you. Let me earn them, let me prove that I could keep things between us. I promise to keep your secrets to myself, those little tokens of how you’re letting me in. I could love you if you trusted me, if you let me prove that I am trustworthy.

If you let me love you, if we let chance encounters and mutual friends serve as signs that maybe, there could be something there between us. There would, of course, be work involved. We couldn’t let everything fall to fate, and hope that infatuation alone would keep us afloat. I would have to learn how to be patient, and there would be things about me you’d find less than wonderful, too. We would have to navigate the scars our exes left, and work our way around the wounds and suspicions we’re still nursing. And I couldn’t expect you to sew me back up any more than I could hope to fix you.

But we could look across the room one crowded, noisy evening, and our eyes could meet, and I could love you. It’s possible. Anything is. And we could get to know each other, slowly but surely, and I could find out how very easy it would be to fall in love with you
