Fluttery lashes
Fake lashes have become such a big thing. I've noticed in Japan it's pretty much a staple for most girls. I must admit I have a good few pairs at home but I always end up too lazy to put them on. However, on days when I do, the results are pretty apparent and they really open up the eyes, giving results mascaras cannot replicate.
Shu uemura is pretty much known for their great fake lashes. After pairing with Victor & Rolf before, they released new lashes in June to create even more glamourous looks.

Aquatic Nymph
I bought this palette in Japan. The colors are gorgeous and the palette is from the latest Jill Stuart Beauty Summer 2009 collection called Aquatic Nymph. Along with this I also purchased a shimmery, glittery red limited edition nail polish from same collection. The eyeshadows look so nice on especially the blue. I love how they stay on my lids after many hours of being out in the humid weather and still somehow remain somewhat crease-free.Image via Jill Stuart Beauty

A Good Day
Wow today was a good day. Despite only sleeping for 3 hours, I received some good news personally and so did my best friend. Uncanny. I'm happy for her and for myself, we've been both down in the dumps for some time and it's nice to be surprised once in a (very long)while.

Home again
Can't believe one week flew by so quickly. It felt more like I was there for only 3 or 4 days. I am missing my best friend terribly and also I feel like I have not acheived as much as I would have liked. There was not much sightseeing this time round, as that was not my main purpose for the trip. Anyway, here I am back home again. The weather is so hot it's gross and it's been raining heaps. urgh.

Tough stuff
This clip got me and my buddies laughing inside Tokyo Hands, a store that sells all sorts of stuff like homeware, materials for DIY projects etc. We were browsing in the umbrella section when we came across this and we LOLed so bad the whole floor heard us. Still funny now.
p.s. no, none of us walked away with that brand of umbrella even though we bought 5 umbrellas between the 3 of us.

Transformed
So I was among the first ones to watch the movie in Japan at the advance screening session (we even received certificates to prove that we were among the first ones in the world to watch it or something) and I was so impressed. I LOVED IT. I watched the first one like 7 times in the cinema and I think I'm gonna watch it at least another time. At least. The movie runs 160 mins long but not once did I feel like it was long. In fact, I didn't get enough. The coolest thing was of course the transformations of the robots. Also, me and my buddy were the only ones in the cinema laughing out loud in the cinema.... some of the new characters were pretty cool too. Notable mention: the twins and the pet Michela keeps towards the middle of the movie. However, I did not like the last couple lines of the movie... thought they were cheesy.

Trend alert
According to my observation through people watching and confirmed by my Jap friend, girls here have been wearing tiny hats on their heads as accessories. I wanted to take a photo but it was too obvious so I hope I have a chance in the coming days. For now you just have to imagine it.

Konichiwa (is that right?)
Greetings from Japan. Made it through customs without being quarantined. I was so worried the night before as I had a mild fever. NEways I'm better but still bit tired. I'm glad to be back. I missed my buddy and her family so much. And who could forget the shopping. I am waiting for my buddy to get ready so we can hit the shops in a while.
It's rainy season here and every night it pours. But duing the day it's cool so its damn nice. Loves it.

urgh
No, I don't have that. But that was the first thing that sprang to mind when I first felt sick. Gosh it's gotten everyone all paranoid and panicky. Basically I just feel tired, have back ache and stomach ache. No fever or anything else. As a result I have to postpone my trip overseas for another few days till I get better. For the past couple days I have done pretty much nothing but sleep and watch reruns of Saturday Night Live while I eat. As a person who usually have great difficulties sleeping, I have been having no problems doing that whatsoever throughout the past 2 days. All day and night. Wow...I guess I really must not be myself just yet. I'm getting there. I'm slowly sleeping less and less. Pretty soon I'll be back to my usual involuntary 5 hours. lol.

Night at the Museum 2
Saw this over the weekend. This was pretty funny. However, it's true. The sequel is not as good as the first one. Is that like always the case? Why is that?

My voice is shot
Went to Karaoke with my oldest and dearest friends. Found out a few things:
- Rhianna songs are hard to sing.
- (According to my friends) A lot of popstars have had surgery.
- K-Buffets offer crap food.
- Avril songs are good K songs.
- That I actually hogged the air time most of the night for the first time ever.
- No matter how many cups of honey lemon you drink your throat still hurts after.
