for grace

My dearest cousin demanded i give the 'low down' of my life on my blog... but isnt she supposed to be preparing for exams ah?

oops, did i just add stress to you cousin?

sorry la, just joking haha. i know you're very hard working and you need to take frequent breaks ya. and sleep at decent hours, dont let your mum worry.

Today i did my nails, removing the really awesome color i had before. But to have healthier unyellow nails, google tells me to wear my nail polishes for not more than 5 days in a row. And to give them a day or two's break between nail colors. But thanks to an xmas gift from last year, wedding gift from this year, and my own nail oil from Etude... and some enriched base coat from Faceshop, i actually dont have yellow nails. In fact, whenever i wear nail polishes for a period, i never get chipped nails as i would regularly if i dont wear any.

of course, the fact that i paint my nails means extra care goes to them in the first place.. haha

so today was my first attempt at one-stroke nail art on my nail. The last week i occasionally practiced abit on paper. Its quite hard to do, unlike what i see on youtube!! Maybe its the quality of my brushes, or my paints. My paints are definitely abit too watery ( its acrylic)so i got another set off ebay for a water-soluble one that i see a nail blogger use. Quite ok price, cant wait to try it.

Tada, my result!
i think i overkilled on the dots, but it was quite fun to use a dotting tool XD

Now here is most of my nail collection... not everything fits in there and not a good idea to stack those things too high.
Most of my nails colors, the special holographics are not there because they are that precious, plus i wanted to save space for the other colors. My 4 opi are not there either , hadnt painted them on yet!

very purple , i like.

Finally i've also been doing my crocheting, almost 15/21 sets of advent calendar gifts made. woot!

Also got round to finally pinning and painting fabric stiffener onto my giant snowflake. That is a pizza box it is on btw. Its my favourite snowflake so far, but it took quite long to do and pin!
k, thats it for now. Cousin, write me essay-length comments ya!
