The Time Traveler's Wife

The light is changing. Clare stirs, turns toward me, onto her side. I study her face. There are a few faint lines, at the corners of her eyes and mouth, that are the merest suggestion of the beginnings of Clare's face in middle age. I will never see that face of hers, and I regret it bitterly, the face with wich Clare will go on without me, which will never be kissed by me, which will belong to a world that I won't know, except as a memory of Clare's, relegated finally to a definite past.



Reading that part immediately broke me into tears. And not just getting teary and sniffy, I was crying as if I've lost someone or something I adore the most. Also, Henry's letter to Clare where he mentioned how he's seen her in the future when she was an old woman. Omg everything is so beautiful but sad at the same time!

In the early part of this book I wasn't as intrigued cos to me it was just some normal love story going on except that it has a little bit of ridiculous thing which is how it is possible that someone time travels. As I read on I realised it doesn't matter anymore, cos what's more interesting is what happens when he time travels.

I suck at giving reviews but I have to say, this book is very well written. The beginning didn't bore me as much as Life of Pi did but both books are great to me in a different way. Life of Pi is an inspiring book talking about life, The Time Traveler's Wife is a book that breaks your heart and at the same time show you how love can be so beautiful.

Aaaaah wanna watch the movie! I hope it does the book justice.

Crap. My eyes are swollen from all that crying last night.

102 More Days Till I Call It A Year!

I can't believe it! It has been about 9 months since I started doing Project 365! I'm left with only 101 days and it's officially something I started off a year ago! Time flies or what!

I got kinda lazy to edit and all so, it has been 20 days since the last one. Crazy.

#244 - No I didn't get punched in the eye it's just me experimenting with makeup.


#245 - I helped my sister to straighten her hair with my straightening iron.


#246 - Played with makeup again.


#247 - I love this day's makeup look!


#248 - Greenbox =)


#249 - I was looking at MAC's website and decided to draw this thing they have.


#250 - Makeup day.


#251 - Lalala.


#252 - You can't tell from this picture but in the unedited one, my skin looked super clear! Which I am so happy about cos my skin has never been so clear for the longest time. All the religious cleansing, toning, moisturizing, mask-ing and exfoliating, all the extra 15 minutes spent every night and day was worth it! Oh except for my chin, the scars are still quite obvious so that's why I cut it off hahaha.


#253 - Another boring day. Everytime you see a picture of my face, it means that day's boring and there's nothing much to show but my uninteresting face.


#254 - My peacock inspired look haha.


#255 - I love rainbows colours!


#256 - My favourite eyeshadow so far.


#257 - How I look like when I sing.


#258 - Makeup day.


#259 - If you read my post, I've mentioned this day before. The day I went out with the people who teach in the same music centre as I do, the day I got called cool.


#260 - Another boring day with a picture of me


#261 - Cos I've never posted printscreen pictures of us for quite some time already =)


#262 - I love Japanese snacks! That Fran Whipps is the awesomest thing everrrr!


#263 - Was experimenting with makeup. Expect some inspired look soon :)

Ok done. Practice time.

A Short Update

1. I didn't get anything from the Balm. My plan was to go there on Thursday but on Wednesday, I thought I wanted to just drop by MAC @ Sunway Pyramid to pick up a few stuffs since I had an hour before work starts. I ended up buying a whole crapload from MAC so... I could have bought the things I wanted from the Balm but I figured there's no point getting too many similar things. In a shorter phrase, I'm broke. Wtf. I was even late for work HAHAHA.

2. That ranty post down there, well. That guy finally replied and I'll be seeing him tomorrow. But I'm a little nervous now cos my pieces aren't really ready yet T___T

3. I'm left with about 100 pages of The Time Traveler's Wife and then I can go watch the movie! Who wants to go with me? Anyone? No one? Fine, I can go alone.

5. If I'm not updating very often, it means I'm busy preparing my audition tape. But oh who am I kidding. The last time I said this, look what's happening now! But oh please oh please, just let me focus T____T

4. Lastly, entertain yourself =)

Cool

I was out with a group of people today and it was so freakin' awkward. They are people from one of the music centres I teach at. It was a gathering to celebrate my boss's early birthday. I usually do not join gatherings like these cos:

1. I am not close to people in music centres.
2. I don't talk much to people I'm not close with.
3. All in all, you can almost call me an anti-social freak.

And all these while I thought I have changed since my secondary school days. During that time, I have the reputation of being the 'coolest' girl. When I say 'cool', it does not mean in a hip and/or trendy way. At all.

It simply means I'm unfriendly, in a nicer and more polite term of course. When new people talk to me, they would simply use the word 'cool' to describe me or regard me as 'cool'.

And I thought I have changed and became more 'warm'.

I was wrong.

Until today, people still use the word 'cool' to describe me.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not getting angry here. Honestly, this situation amuse me. I know 'cool' only mean 'unfriendly' but somehow, I find it cool to be called 'cool', you know what I mean? HAHAHAHAHA. Syok sendiri.

Anyway, yeah I guess after all these years, I haven't changed a single bit. I am 'cool' towards people I don't know or people I am not close with. I open up only to people I know AND am close with. There's a difference between people I know, and people I know AND am close with ok?

Ask all my close friends, I don't think they'll ever use the word 'cool' to describe me. They would most likely say I'm vain, lame, random, crazy etc etc but not cool.

But yeah. I guess being 'cool' is my... signature? Wtf.

It's not done on purpose anyway.

Peacock Inspired

I posted "I'm a peacock!" to my Twitter and I had 3 people telling me "wtf" hahahah. Yeah 3's not a lot that's because I don't follow many people, I only follow people I know. Which also means I don't know many people hahah.

Anyway, I did this peacock-inspired look for a little online contest. Well, technically it's not my original idea, more like a recreation. It's supposed to be a Halloween makeup look contest. I know, we don't celebrate Halloween here and even if we do, it's over. So I was only doing this for fun and since I was already having fun, I thought I might as well join the contest.

Since I don't want to spam this blog with so many (scary? haha) vain pictures of myself, I'm only posting one. The rest will be in my vanity blog.

Finally my Ardelle lashes came out to play. FYI, I hate wearing false eyelashes. Which was why I didn't even bother sticking it onto my lashline hahaha! It still has that tackiness without the glue so I simply stuck it onto my lashline and quickly took pictures.

Ok gtg.

Random Stuffs

Omg the itch to buy things is freakin' me out. Every second I think of what I want to buy and it's only the 2nd day of November! Seriously, can die man. Wk's right, when we live together, I should hand him ALL my money and he shall be the one to control the flow.

I seriously need a new night time moisturizer cos my BodyShop Time Release Capsule's finishing. It's a 28 days treatment thingie and I'm left with my last 4 capsules already. And another foundation cos I just realized that the current one I'm using, which is new anyway, is too light for my skin tone. It makes me look stark white not only in pictures, even my mom said so! Ugh the horror. Not gonna throw it away anyway, it's still money spent! I'll probably get a darker shade and mix them.

Ok since Wk's not going to sleep tonight cos he's rushing for his submission, I'll stay up with him by practising =) We have our videos and skype on. It's as though we're right next to each other, working really hard =)

Oooh I just found out The Time Traveler's Wife the movie's out already! Gosh I'm still left with 200++ pages. Gotta speed up.

Ok time to go. Have a great week everyone.
