hey people! ever heard of Konad? you really gotta try, one day I was surfing the net and I found these really pretty nail art stuff. I am not sure if I leave anything out in this tutorial but I hope you’d find it useful =D.

wanna learn how to do? but first, you gotta have the stuff, not many, just a few. (just a little from what I know, kind of satisfies me, don’t know about you, and I am not an expert =X.)

Stuff: nail file, nail scraper, 2 nail polish of your choice, base coat, faux diamond.
Konad stuff: special polish of your choice, image plate, plate scraper, stamper.

STEP ONE: FILE YOUR NAIL.

STEP TWO: SCRAPE AWAY ACCESS SKIN ON NAIL *to make nail polish last longer*

STEP THREE: APPLY BASE COAT

STEP FOUR: APPLY BASE COLOR AFTER BASE COAT DRIED. ( I used a different brand as it is much cheaper. )

STEP FIVE: SPONGE.
you can simply sponge on any area you like =)

STEP SIX: KONAD STAMP ART.
you must use a konad special polish for it on the image plate. =)

STEP SEVEN: APPLY TOP COAT.
before top coat dries, put the faux diamond on the place you think is suitable.

STEP EIGHT: wait for it to dry and VIOLA!

ALWAYS REMEMBER: wait for nail polish to dry before going to the next step.

It’s always the best to do the konad stamping art the next day for best results. It is good because if you stamped wrongly you can lightly use a cotton with some nail polish remover and remove the part you stamped wrongly and the base color won’t come out so easily.

Where to buy?
1. you can order it directly from Konad
2. if you’re living in KL, Konad is sold in One Utama, the same floor with pets wonderland and Sungei Wang, some accessory shop near Esquire Kitchen. =)

does anybody reading this post ever felt how an outcast felt? made friends with them, treated them like a normal person or did you look down on them, bullied them, talked bad about them, treating them like they knew nothing at all.

I, admit that I was an outcast, a horrible one with my hair all sticking up like I just got some electric shot or something. Since I’m 5 till I’m 10-12. nobody really talked to me, they never really treated me as their good friend. I had no best friends. My so called ” best friends ” are friends who treated me just like a normal friend because I had barely any friends. The feeling of getting rejected by people around you *other than family* is really something that not everybody get to experience. I remember people took me like a dumb kid who knows nothing and who is so stupid because I’m in a B class and I’m still getting the last place. Sometimes, people even forget who I am because I was almost transparent. I was bullied by some mean students sometimes too. Being slow minded is really something bad.

I noticed I’m not that slow minded when I’m 11. and that is when I know that tuition is important to me. I couldn’t speak a word of english before I’m 8. I attended drama class and everybody there speaks english so fluently that it made me pick up my english quite fast. I was never good in malay, even until now, I’m not as good as the others, but at least I can understand most of the words and I could write and even speak some normal conversations without thinking for a few minutes. People often reject people who are usually bad in studies and those stupid looking ones. why? I just don’t get it sometimes. Is it just normal? I studied really hard when I’m 11 and just in a few months, from the last place I jumped to top 5. and was transferred to A class in standard 6. Although I’m the weakest in A class, but I felt a lot better because more people wanted to be friends with me. I suddenly felt that I was not that useless after all.

Even that I’m quite lazy to study and I cannot get better than most of my classmates but I’m really glad, just because I’m finally noticed. When I stepped into form 1, it is when I finally thought my life began. I don’t remember quite anything of my primary life but my 5 year old one. It just flashes in my mind at times when I think about it, and it just won’t go away. I tend to remember the scariest stuffs that had happened more than the happy ones, or maybe there isn’t any happy ones. Until now, I didn’t like to feel how I felt before this, all unwanted by the society. Even how hard I try to make people like me, I can’t make everybody like me. Because humans have negative points. I am just glad that I actually have readers reading my boring blog. And that I’m glad to have made so many good friends in my secondary life. I’m starting to love myself. =).

in a way to improve your photography skills of course! Wilson installed watermarks for me! the thingy on the bottom right.

my first shot yesterday. A bit blurry.

something my dad bought for ME!

This red bump was made during the 1st of november where I walked so much in my pair of heels, THEN, yesterday I accidentally knocked my leg on the table and it went bleeding for a bit. sakits!

it is SO DAMN HARD to take this picture. One hand balancing my heavy camera another hand posing right in front of it, shake so much! and yea,will have a step by step post on how to make this type of nail art later when I help my mom or sis do it. =)

you people shall see how I improve!

friends requested for the lyrics as it’s really nice. so here’s it;

Alison Krauss
Stay

Where have you been,
My long lost friend?
It’s good to see you again.
Come and sit for a while
I’ve missed your smile
Today the past is goodbye.
Time can’t erase
A lover’s embrace.
Can’t you hear it calling?
A new day dawning
You were longing to find.

Love’s taken you far
Away from my heart,
And I’ve been here all alone.
Have your eyes failed to find
What took you from mine,
A vision that’s faded through time?
But you sailed away,
A fine summer’s day,
Cause you heard it calling,
A new day dawning,
You were longing to find.

There is a way to make you stay.
Darlin don’t turn away
Don’t doubt your heart
and keep us apart
I’m right where you are
Stay

There is a way to make you stay.
Darlin don’t turn away.
Don’t doubt your heart
and keep us apart
I’m right where you are
Stay.

went over to Market Place, at Jalan Yap Kuan Seng. The boss of CWZJ brought over some of his seafood for the indians to BBQ it too! It’s a bungalow renovated into a bistro/lounge. It’s really a nice place for people who wanted to have their own parties.

The starters =)

the BBQ place

My sis, Jeannie.

This lobster is HUUUGGEEE.

Alaska’s King Crab. The one huger than my head.

This is how it looks when it’s burned.

The legs is already so HUGEEE, the meat in it’s legs = meat of an average crab!

What each person is served with =P

A female Hairy Crab *I still prefer male actually.*

The difference between male and female is it’s filling in the middle. The male’s one is white and the female’s one is like on top. Both is yummy but I would recommend the male one.

Picture by muah! not bad right? haha.

November – January’s main dish : Hairy Crab

HAIRY CRAB!
aka dai zhap hai

it is originated from China around shanghai as I know, it’s only found around the end of the year, so quick quick go grab it!

very shiny crabs, there are tools too! but you can just finish it by hand.

Directions to RIP the crab :
1, pull out the large wide shell from the butt.
2, you’ll see some gooey white stuff in the middle for male crabs and some redish orange stuff in the middle for female crabs, scoop it out and eat it! it’s DELICIOUS.
3, turn the other way round and take off the middle part and break it in half
4, I think I don’t need to explain the other basics right?

The reason it’s called Hairy Crab is because it is really hairy!

you’ll find this sauce in CWZJ, it’s vinegar especially for Hairy Crab, imported from China, I don’t think other places sell it too. The tools are on the right side. They’ll teach you how to use it when you request =)

It’s always good to have some “fa tiew wine” after having hairy crabs, not only that but ginger tea too.

Some crab noodles will fill you full =).

Teapots from China made from lava.

Lai liu ha translated is, peeing prawn? HAHA.

Really rare eel, it’s expensive. How could they eat something so beautiful right? =P.

Geoducks. Don’t it look like elephant trunks?

Alaska’s King Crab! it’s larger than my head!
