My Nails (Part II)

It's good to be home! Havn't settled the photos yet, so I'll make sure to update when they're ready


As I've mentioned earlier, my bling bling nails has been a real hassel during my trip to Hong Kong. They were getting long and ugly and the crystals were dropping out! I've never had such long nails before, I always keep them short and neat. So for the past 3 weeks I've been reduced to a bimbo.


Why? With such long nails, I can't cook, I can't clean, I can't type, I'm basically handicapped because any activities would mean risking breaking my nails. Of course the ultimate Bimbo factor; the constant gazing at my nails, admiring the crystals and it's shine. Awww.... (^-^)


I was looking forward to parting with my Bimbo side and getting rid of the nails really. They were getting really ugly and not forgetting uncomfortable, having experienced a few accidents with my pathetic attempt to help out with the luggage.


Went to Some's place again on Friday to get rid of the acrylic nails. After a delicious dinner cooked by Some's mama, we got to work. Man! They were difficult to remove. Two of my nails were abit hurt from the minor accidents with the luggage. :(


We decided to go for a more sweet and simple design, so we opt for a french manicure with hand painted flowers and some recycled crystals. They look so sweeeeet! As usual, we were so excited with the final result that we started snapping away with our camera phones! Haha...



Some taking photo of my feet...

Poor dear dear waited for me until 12.50am to fetch me. It should have been a quick job as we were only doing normal painting, but we didn't expect the acrylic to be so difficult to remove! In the end dear waited an extra 2 hours for me. Sorry my love! (^_^)


I really like this second design, yes it may be more simple, but it's not plain and it still has the bling effect. Nice!

Home Sweet Home

Meow....

I opened my weary eyes to find out that I've slept with my glasses still on my face and the tv and lights in my room is still on. It's not that it didn't happen before, just that I never had them on all the way till dawn.

I took off my glasses, went outside the room and yelled at my cat to shut up. Came back into the room, switched off the lights, my handphone charger and popped back to bed. Oops, forgot about my tv. Heck it. Without moving away from my cosy bed and warm blanket, I used my toe to lower the volume and continued round two of my beauty sleep.

I vaguely remembered waking up again at 9.30am to some DIY tv show before drifting off again. Next thing I knew, it's 11am.

Man that was a great sleep.

The house was quiet as my parents were not back yet from the Hong Kong trip. I slept around 2pm last night after coming back from Some's place. Yah I got my nails done. They look gorgeous!! :) The trip to Hong Kong with my sparkling nails (see my last blog entry) has been a real nightmare and I'm glad that I got rid of it. Apart from the discomfort, they were getting really fugly.

Thank you again Some for her services. :)

Anyway, mom's coming back in the afternoon so I quickly (and very carefully) settled all the laundry. Cooked some instant noodles and coffee for brunch before settling down for a blog.

I exhaled a deep sigh when I was doing the laundry just now. It's so peaceful and quiet, I felt so relaxed. The trip has been fun, but it was filled with late nights, early mornings, noise, pollution of big cities and schedules packed at every minute.

It's nice now. I savour my solitude, blogging on a saturday afternoon, the soft jazz music played on while the fan hums in the background. I savour it because I know that it would be short lived. Soon I'll be going out to pick up my parents at the airport. The house would be filled with people moving around, chatting, laughing.

Looking forward to that too! :)
