AUP Gala (Prom) 2015

7/15/2015 10:30:00 pm

Hi Hi!!!!!! =D 
I'm back with a new post and my study break is coming up this week. 
Need to study hard for my finals and then sem break!!! 
Can't wait for Holiday~~~ *do a little dance*

So, from the title, I'm sure you guys get it that I'm going to write about my gala night, which is held on the 4th of July, 2015 =) 
This is totally different from my last prom in 2013
Why? 
Well the people I go with are different, and just the whole event is different! 
I'm not going in detail on what happens on that night. 
Just a picture diary for the day itself. ♥♥

This pic below, I need to explain. 
My dress is not white! 
I have to filter the pic to make it brighter and it changed the colour of the dress. 
But I love the outcome of the pic, and so I'm gonna post it anyway. 
Did my hair and make up from the bathroom until in the car.
Hey I was in a rush! Was busy in the afternoon =/ *shrugs*
I was literally doing my hair in the car and spraying hairspray hahhaahhahhaha (poor bro!)
Even though is just a normal half up, half down.
I know, I look different somehow. =)
Did my make up on my own this time, unlike last 2 years ago, I went over to the salon and paid that came out with some weird make up.
And yes, this is how my dress's colour is ♥♥
And again with the filter, cause 'damn' the whole place is just too dark, and the pics that came out is so dark, so don't blame me for weird looking pics. =D
#OOTD
Dress: Ezone Collection
Heels: Charles and Keith
Clutch: Aldo
And of course a pic with my brother is a must! 
This little cutie manage to suit up and look nice, with *cough*, of course, *cough* my help *smile* =) 
So siblings, being siblings =) 
They fought (yes, we fight), they argued, they teased but still they love each other ♥♥

I'm not going into details for this, but there's a rose-ing event in that night.
Which is, someone will write a message that will be tied onto a rose and give to another person they want and on the night itself it will be given to the receiver.
And I got a rose! *like what?!!!*
I never expected it, like literally.
Even though my friends did gave me a heads up when I reached the venue. But still it was unexpected.
Thank you to 'anonymous'!! (Okay, I know who you are. But you, readers don't have to know! =P)
I have never receive flowers from anyone before, so this is a first!! =)
Thank you for the hand drawn message.
I really do appreciate it =)
Pic with my first ever friend in AUP.
The super ever cute and friendly that everyone loves, Jacques =)
 My girls! ♥♥
The guys and also with my English teacher!! =D
Yes, the pic is blur a bit.
But oh well, is not like we get to see pics like this every time.
Kristle and Me!! =D
Love her dress!! Like seriously!! =)
And the prom king wanted to take a pic with me *OMG!!* =)
So why not? *smirk*
This dude here is my junior, lol! And I'm proud for him that he won!
And here is another bunch of 'kids' (juniors) that I heart them =)
There's a photo booth outside which I find it cool!
And we get to print as many pics as we want, for free!
Yea.... we had too many people lol.
I'm at the back!!!!
After I got into AUP, I manage to get friends I never thought I would have.
These dudes here, and also more, are the guys that I never thought of having as friends.
I even told my friend one day that : ' I have lots of guy friends after I got into AUP, this is weird.'
This is rare, really, cause from primary to secondary and even in A-Levels, I never have that many guy friends this close to hang around and just tease around each other.
So I'm glad that I have them as my friends =)
And here is another pic with another bunch of guys!
These are my bro's best friends that I really appreciate them from taking care of him.
And it was my bro's idea to take this pic, and I love it! ♥♥
And of course, I'm gonna end the post with my beloved brother that I have known him my whole life. ♥♥ 
Hahhahaa 
This cheeky dude will always be my little brother that I will bully him from time to time ;) 
And I'll always be there to help him in his fashion =D 
Nothing special from this post, is not like I have a date to prom or anything.
Receiving the rose is a huge surprise for me.
I did have an enjoyable night, except for the food. =D
But then, the food is way more better than my last prom, so no complaining =D

These memories will forever be kept in me.



Love Me!! XOXO ♥♥♥♥

Top 5 Home Made DIY Beauty Fixes

2/17/2015 10:36:00 pm

Hi Hi Guys! =D
On this week's post, I'm not the one who is writing, I'm collaborating with my awesome friend Fiza Malhotra who is going to guest blog about the top 5 home made DIY beauty fixes for yourself!

Just so you know, I also wrote a post on her blog, which will be out soon.
I will post the link here, once it's out =)
http://www.dasrockhaus.com/blog/how-to-stay-healthy-while-traveling


Who says you need to spend an exorbitant amount of money on beauty products when you can just use something from your pantry. Here's are my Top 5 home made DIY beauty fixes, from head to toe.

1. Honey Hair
What does it do: Smoothens hair and nourishes it to achieve a naturally healthier look. Bonus perk: It also naturally lightens your hair slightly.
Directions: Take one part honey to 1/2 part luke-warm water, mix well and simply apply to your entire head of hair. Leave for 30 mins and wash as normal.



2. Oatmeal Mask
What does it do: Smoothens your skin and takes away impurities. Best if used weekly.
Directions: Combine 1/4 cup hot—not boiling—water and 1/2 cup oatmeal. You can use the instant ones if you like but it will just a bit more mushy. Allow oatmeal to settle for 2 or 3 minutes.Mix in 1 tablespoons plain yogurt,1 tablespoons honey, 1 teaspoon turmeric powder and 1 small egg white.



3. Frozen Spoon
What does it do: Helps reduce your eyebags and dark circles under your eyes.
Directions: Always keep 2 spoons in your freezer. Take the spoons out for when you need them. Warm them up very slightly with your fingers if they're frosted. Rest the under side of the spoon on your eyes for a few minutes till it warms up to body temperature.



4. Lemon Water
What does it do: Aids your immune and digestive system. Plus perk: Glowy skin and weight loss.
Directions: Add a slice of lemon to your glass of warm water daily.



5. Baby Powder
What does it do: Prevents your feet from sweating and stinking.
Directions: Just sprinkle baby powder luxuriously into your shoes before putting them on.



Hope you enjoy these easy beauty fixes! What's yours?

With Much Love,

Christmas Nails Tutorial

12/16/2014 09:36:00 am

Hi Hi =D
Like I promised in my last post, I'm gonna shared something to do with Christmas in this post.
So, I'm gonna shared how I paint/draw my Christmas or Winter nails. =)

Christmas is by far Everyone's favourite holiday, and so is mine!!
Love the decoration, the food and of course the presents!!

But whenever I think of Christmas, I think of the weather first.
The snow falling, snowflakes is one of the most beautiful creation ever!!
Since I live in a tropical country with no snow, I find it even more beautiful!! =)

This is my Christmas Nails Tutorial [ No Tools Needed ]

This year I'd got inspiration from the white[the snow] , gold[Christmas colour] and the snowflakes. =)
What you need :
1. Gold glitter [Big size] - The Face Shop
2. Gold glitter [Small size] - The Face Shop
3. Lighter Gold glitter [Small size] - Elianto
4. Nude/ Orangy colour - The Face Shop (Optional)
5. Basecoat / Topcoat
6. White nail polish.
7. Toothpicks.
8. Recycled paper.

So let's start shall we? =D
Step 1: Paint your nails with the base coat and then the base colour.
I painted my nails in white except for the middle finger in the gold glitter(2&3).
Step 2: Then pour out some gold glitter nail polish on the paper and we will start using the toothpicks to draw the snowflakes.
If you guys don't want glitter snowflakes, you can use the nude colour, or some similar colour to gold. =)
I'll be drawing them on my ring finger.
Step 3 : From the pic above, I'm sure you guys get it how to draw the snowflakes.
Yes!! It's just that easy!! =D
And this is how it look like.
Step 4 : Add the gold glitter [Big size] on the other nails to make it look festive and cute =)

Step 5 : Paint a coat of top coat to seal everything off, and celebrate the best holiday in the world!! =D
And also clean the edge of the nails.

Just 5 simple steps to get this pretty Christmas/ Winter nails =D
Hope you guys like it!!
Cause I simply adore it!!
I could just stare at my nails the whole day. =D

Good luck!
=)

Easy Floral Nails Tutorial

6/01/2014 11:46:00 pm

Hi Hi pretties!!
As you gals know [ or maybe not ] , I love nail arts.  
If I have the mood and the time.
I will sit in my rooms for hours just to perfect up my nails =)

My other tutorials :
http://sarahjslee.blogspot.com/2013/05/musical-notes-nails-d.html
http://sarahjslee.blogspot.com/2013/02/chinese-new-year-valentines-day-nails.html

So, here is another tutorial is up for you gals =))
I've wanted to do this post for a long time. But I didn't have the time to find the perfect items for it.
Since now my exam is almost over.
I'm gonna share with you how to do this easy floral nail art =))
Spring is here and Summer is on it's way, why not give our nails a little makeover??
=)

Let's go!!!

Things you will need :
1. 5 - 6 or more toothpicks, make sure they are sharp!!


2. Base colour
    -White nail polish
    -Butter London - Teddy Girl
    -Top coat / Base coat


3. Nail polishes for the design
    -The Face Shop - Mint Green
    -Elianto - Pink
    -O.P.I - A Definite Moust-Have
    -O.P.I - Chic from Ears to Tail


4. Put a recycled paper on your work place, so that it doesn't mess up your table.

Steps :

1. Paint your base colours on your nails.
2. Choose which ever finger you like to paint the white nail polish, I chose the ring finger =)
3. The other 4 fingers, I just paint them with 2 coats of pink



4. Blob the light pink on your ring finger. Irregular shape is the best!!


This is what we are going to do next!! =))
Leggo!!!

5. Use your toothpick, draw a few outline using a darker colour of the blob you created just now, leave a little gap in between each outline.


6. Then, make a dot in the middle of the blob.


7. This is the tricky part for me!! =0
    Draw few thin lines of curves around the dot you made.
   [This is why your toothpicks must be sharp!! So they can draw the line perfectly! =) ]


8. Use another toothpick, use the green to draw the leaves =)


9. Wait for them to dry, and put on a layer of top coat to make sure they stay longer =)

10.And you are done!!! =DD

Pretty easy, isn't?? =)

Here's another tip :
Your design doesn't have to be really perfect!
It is meant to be messy, so if you messed up a little, just let it go =)




Good luck and have fun!!
=))

Hey Love Birds and Singles =) ♥
Since tomorrow is the 14th o Feb!!
Which is also Valentine's Day. ♥
Awwwhhh so lovey dovey ♥♥
Too bad I have no Valentine so I'll just hang out with my girls tomorrow =)

What presents will you usually receive on V-Day?
Flowers, Gifts and Chocolates!! [Typical presents ideas~]
Yup chocolates are a must on V-Day. 
So, if you are a chocolate lover like me?! [Well I'm okay with chocolates =) ]
This is a small little quick! tutorial on how to make Chocolate Molten Lava Cake for your love ones ♥

#sarahbakes ep3!! =D 

I saw this recipe when I was on Youtube =)
So yup, I wrote it down.
And will shared it with you guys.
Here's the link to the vid : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=639HnqIZsn8

This recipe is enough for 5 remikans.

Things you will need :
1. 130g of Semi Sweet Dark Chocolate.
2. 3/4 cup of All Purpose Flour.
3. 4 Eggs.
4. 1 teaspoon of Vanilla Extract.
5. 113g of Salted Butter.
6. 3/4 of Sugar.
7. Remikan Bowls


I asked Chian Chyi whether she wanted to do with me or not, since doing desserts alone sucks!
She said yes!
But of course, she's really good at baking and cooking!! 
When we had our 4 hour break between our class, Chia Lynn and me went to her place to bake =)
So CC and me begins baking!!

Steps :
1. Preheat your oven into 232 °C!!!

2. If your chocolates came in a bar, then cut them into cubes, so that they can melt faster.
    You can also buy chocolate chips too, to save this steps.
    Cut the butter into cubes too =)


 3.  Double boil the chocolate and butter together.
      [ Double boil means that you boil the water on a pot or pan, and then put another bowl or pan on top to melt the chocolate and butter, so that your chocolate won't be brunt. ]



4. Mix the eggs, sugar and vanilla extract into another bowl. 


5. Then add the flour into it.
    Lastly, pour the chocolate mix into the batter.  
    You're done mixing!!!  *Make sure there's no lumps!*

 6. Grease the remikans with butter or cooking spray =)

7. Then pour the delight into the greased remikans. 
    Just pour 3/4 of the remikans will do =) 


8. Then just pop them into the oven for 10 - 12 mins!!
    Be careful, the oven is hot!!

9. Brava! Bravo!! Your Chocolate Molten Lava Cake is done! =)

Looks delish doesn't it?!

10. Anyway the risky part is to take out the cake from the remikans.
     Which we failed miserably =(
     Cause the top part isn't cakey enough. =(
     Don't know what went wrong, but it still taste really chocolatey good!! ♥

It's a success inside out, =D
Just that we couldn't get it out of the remikans. =(

If you love your chocolatey goodness!!
Then be sure to try this out =)
I'm not saying this recipe will really work, cause it doesn't really work perfectly I wanted.
So, good luck!!
And in advance of wishing you all
♥♥Happy Valentine's Day!! ♥♥
Stay sweet and cherish your love ones ;) 


P.S..♥ Thanks Chyi for helping me out!! *Hearts!!* ♥
And sorry for the blur pics =( I forgotten to bring my camera with me. So I had to use my phone.





Love Me! XOXO ♥♥♥♥
