I've been wanting to get a new hair style for the Lunar Chinese New Years, new year, fresh start. So over the weekend on Sat, I got my hair trimmed and dyed it back to black. I really like black hair, but dying it just to all black at once from my brown sugar coloured hair seemed a bit plain, so I decided to do a strip of highlight on the side. I wanted to have it silver in the beginning, but the bleaching wasn't really working out that well for me. I bleached the strip for 2 times and tried to tone it less yellow but the best I got to was a light tea green colour with little bits of goldish light brown here and there. The silvery green parts reminded me of the time I tried to dye my hair blue with temp dye, but the green last time was slightly darker and this time it's really light. In the end, even though I wasn't able to achieve the exact look I wanted, it still turned out pretty good. I'm happy that my classmates and friends like this new hairstyle as well and I'm even happier that my hair feels more breezy now, got my lovely short short hair back again!

There are some brilliant people out there.
Saw this at Michaels Arts & Crafts Store the other day when I was shopping for project craft supplies. Admire the ladies with strong characters of our modern day XD
Last night when we went out for dinner, I had the urge to do some drinking, the bar at the reception was very encouraging.
Care for a martini? |
Who needs hardcore liquor when you've got martinis lol. (and yes, those cups that appear greatly insignificant in size behind are the normal tall cups you see at Chinese restaurants)

Don't judge a pasta by its looks
For dining plans, I've only thought out a "Guu Marathon", but from the restaurants I've been to lately, seems like I've got another thing going on: a "Pasta tour".

BOB FAILED ME (and yes, I am directionless)
School life
WE SWITCHED PODS D: (♛ POD: definition)
Okay, it's not a bad thing, but I just added that face in to make it sound more dramatic lol. It's actually not bad, but good too. My new spot is in a pod at the front of the room, I've got more room to move around in because my back is faced to a class craft cutting area instead of the wall with a shelf and window that made me felt slightly cornered (and I often hit my head against the shelf cause it was right at my head level when I sit down). There's a column near me, so I still have wall space to hang things with. Due to the angle I am positioned in, the instructors won't be able to see my laptop screen, just like my old seat (means I can continue facebooking in class time to time) and I'm sitting parallel to two windows near me, which gives me more natural light than before. I'm get to sit with Viola again, and two other classmates that are okay to get along with (glad that I didn't get chosen to sit with an annoying someone in the class). Week 2 and I have not slept in class at all :D weeeeeeeeeee so far so good! This semester seems to be starting well, will strive to be more productive than last term/year!
WE GOT A NEW FRIDGE IN THE CLASSROOM.
Plans in getting a mini fridge in the corner next to the sink had been going around our class since last semester. It had been a maybe thing cause half of the class wanted it and the other half didn't see it as useful or they weren't sure. Earlier this week, a classmate brought up the issue again, he wondered why we don't have a fridge, he was very keen on getting one, then after lunch, he went out and came back carrying a small fridge into the classroom. So, just like that, the long discussed issue of getting a class mini fridge was brought up, and in the same day, it was resolved. The small fridge is around the height of a pedestal and has a tiny freezer box that can fit small sized Häagen-Dazs ice-creams, this means, time for frozen treats shopping :D! I also cleaned out a small cabinet beside the fridge and we're starting to bring some teas and coffee to store in there. And so, this is the birth of the new IDSN first year's snack corner (σ・Д・)σ★
(We also wanted a microwave in the classroom, but it's not really allowed in the classrooms anymore because there was a year when the year ones had a microwave and it caught on fire in class...it was stupid enough that they were microwaving food infront of a guest speaker, and even more stupid to overheat some kind of plastic bowl, making it melt and catch on fire...they gave a wonderful impression that microwaves in classrooms = disaster, how thoughtful of them)

To be continued...(I need to sleep so I'll leave this for tomorrow morning)

Winter night shoots are deadly.
Winter night shoots are beautiful, yet deadly.
Came back from my Vocaloid: Just be friends shoot just a few hours ago, used my remaining HP to shower and now ready to hit the bed. HP bar empty and will go towards negative direction as of now.
