Palm Reading & EOTD: Lemon Blue

Have you ever had your palm read? I've a friend from China and he reads my palm for several time and everytime I asked him, he would go like "oh bye bye" since he said that I have a really good palm *Amin to that* My friend said that for girls, it's our right hand to be read and it's the destiny and the left hand is the reality, and for guys, it's the left hand the destiny and the right hand is the reality.


So on the way to Luxembourg I asked him to read my palm again in the train since we had nothing to do. And here's my palm in the gigantic hand LOL *note that this is just for FUN*
 
  

Health Line:

I'm not a very healthy person. I get sick easily and oh no, I don't have a very long life. Some part of it is somehow true since since I was a kid, I constantly went to a doctor with a lot of health problems. I used to have an asthma that was really really bad, I could barely breath I thought I almost died, well I still have it now but it's sooo much better compared to my childhood time. I also had a bronchitis, not really sure I still have it or not tho, hope not! And I once had a period for A MONTH! until I looked really pale I couldn't join my sport class. Not a good health history, right? But for the "I don't have a very long life" part, I hope that's not true tho.

Career Line:

I'll have a good career and Amin to that since I don't have a career yet. I'm still a student for now and to tell the truth, I don't have a clear idea about my career, still kinda blur :( So let's just hope that I WILL DEFINITELY have a good, or even great, career in, hopefully, the near future.

Success & Networking Line:

I'm gonna be success and I always have someone who will help me everytime I have a problem, so basically I have a good network. That's a relief to hear if that's the truth hohoho. Who doesn't want to be a successful person? Of course everyone wants it. And who doesn't want a little help when we're in need? That's insane. So I personally would like to thank everyone who has helped me until this time :)

Marriage Line:

I have only 1 BOYFRIEND whom I love so much and I'm gonna marry him. Whooooooa! Ok, no further comment LOL


The EOTD:

So, I played again with my make-ups. This time I wanted to create kinda blue look but I was thinking that it might be a little heavy and weird for me if I used all blue eyeshadow so I put a little bright color. :D

 
 

What I used:

Lorac CoverUp C4
jW Cosmetics Bare Necessity
Buff'd Eyeshadow in Lemon (inner to middle lid, inner lower lash line & tear duct)
Joppa Minerals in Breathless (outer lid)
The She Space Old Smoky (outer lid)
The She Space Modified Chaos (outer V & crease, outer lower lash line)
NYX Eye Pencil in Extreme Black (lower lash line)
NYX Trio Eyeshadow in Dandy (the middle one as a highlight)
Kate Super Sharp Liner in Black
Maybelline Unstoppable Lash Extension



HAVE A GREAT DAY, EVERYONE! :D

One-Day Luxembourg, Fun Tiring!

Since yesterday I wasn't home all day so I have more quota for updating my blog YAY! So yesterday I went to Luxembourg with 5 of my friends. Actually, they have this cheap train ticket for 5 persons for only 60 Euro but since there were 6 of us, we had to buy another ticket but the difference was not so much *80 Euro divided by 6 ppl* so we just bought them anyway. We had to catch the 6.55 train from my campus and the journey took almost 4 hours but hell, we went abroad! LOL. Then we bought the Luxembourg City ticket, 30 Euro for 6 persons, not bad right? We could ride buses and went into 58 sites for free. Oh La La!



So this is the small train station connecting our journey to Luxembourg. It was freaking cold but I managed not to feel the coldness with my warm clothes and the excitement :)


This is what greeted as soon as we went out from Luxembourg Train Station. Hello, Luxembourg! We only had about 5 hours to enjoy the city to catch the train to go back to Neubruecke because if we were late, we had to wait all night in Saarbrucken and arrive in Neubruecke the day after >_<>

The country is really small and cute with all the lower towns and the higher places. If I'm not mistaken, you can see the Passerelle Viaduc, the well-known old bridge, in this picture, well correct me if I'm wrong tho.

And this is just me posed in the street in the Centre, I think it's called Place d'Armes where ppl go for shopping. Still excited about the journey and still managed to smile for the pics lol

The bus is called Hop On Hop Off City Tour but we didn't get on that since we had to pay extra and I think walking was kinda interesting. But maybe the City Tour wasn't so bad after all -sigh-


And this is the Cathedral to the Blessed Virgin inspired by the Renaissance style. We didn't go inside tho, I don't remember why but we just kept walking, searching for new experience.

You will see lotsa pics of me in this entry so pls bare with me LOL. This is the Calirefontaine Square near the Cathedral. We stopped for a while to take some pics before we head off somewhere else. Take a deep breath. And off we go!

So here's you can see the Clairefountaine Square located between the Cathedral and Government District and there i posed LOL

Then we walked again to the lower town of Luxembourg. You can see the road we had to take. Loooooong way and I didn't want to think about the way back coz we had to climb up to the Centre again -_____-"

Then we found this somehow 'private place' with a beautiful view to the lower towns and I saw these fall leaves and I couldn't help it but to take retarded pic playing with the leaves LOL look at my retarded happy face!

And still a looong way to go to get to the lower towns so would be nice to take another shoot of photo. Pic pic and more pics!!


And finally we reached the Lower Towns of Grund, Clausen and Pfaffenthal! Now we stopped for a longer time to take more pictures and if you see clearly in this pic, you can see something looks like..... a sitting person.

Ta-da! Looks creepy at first but it is something like a person made from wires! And there were more of them, jumping, flying, and sitting. They look so cute and creative tho. Then we went to the Museum of the History of the City of Luxembourg but we weren't allowed to take pictures :(

This is the National Museum of Natural History and I had to take pic of this globe showing my lovely country, oh how I miss Indonesia. Then we walked again to the higher towns to find food, we were getting hungry!


We went across this small bridge called Rocher du Bock to get to the other side of the towns. I was hell scared of height, you can see it from the face, I was in between of smiling and scared LOL And my friends kept making fun of me making me soo pissed off and scared even more!


See what I was talking about? Loong journey back and this was only the beginning -____-" Oh GAWD!


And after we reached the Centre again, we went to Palais Grand-Ducal, the residence of Grand-Ducal family located in the Old Town. But why there was only 1 female guard tho? Hmmm I wonder. Now it's time to find a good restaurant! I was about to eat ppl! LOL

On the way of finding some good restaurants, we happened to see this singing group singing in a total strange language, maybe it was Luxembourgish or France, all I know it wasn't German.

We decided to eat in Pizza Hut and we sat separately since it was really crowded and some of us don't eat pork, including me. So our table, 3 girls, ordered these food HA! And it was the worst spaghetti I ever tasted. Since the meat spaghetti has pork, the only choice for us was vegetarian spaghetti and boy, I know why I will never pull off as a vegetarian. It tasted weird! But I like the Pizza and Garlic Bread tho. And now time to go again before our time was up in Luxembourg. I didn't know where were we heading off but unfortunately there was miscommunication between us so we got off the bus in this rather quiet place where the European Commission located. So we just took some pics and went back to the train station for going back to our lovely Neubruecke.



So, overall I was really HAPPY even tho I was really tired from walking. We got back with the 5.17 train and arrived in Neubruecke at 8.43 and we spent less than 50 Euro! Couldn't feel my feet anymore, I didn't have energy to clean up my room so I just cleaned my face and went to sleep! And that concludes my fun journey to Luxembourg and in the next 2 weeks we are planning to go to France! Crossing my fingers!

The Reviews: Clinique Turnaround 15-Minute Facial & EOTD: Golden Yellow

HAPPY 1ST NOVEMBER, EVERYONE! :D

I've been looking for a good face mask that can do differently to my face since I have uneven-toned skin and small pimples, and oily T-zone -____-" Once in a while, I use mask from Indonesia. It's pretty good but I have this weakness called LAZY-ASS and the mask is pretty messy to clean up. So I was looking for something new and I saw this Clinique Turnaround 15-Minute Facial and I thought I'd give it a try. I bought it in Douglas for 29 Euro if I'm not mistaken. I've used it for several times now.


Price: 2/5
Performance: 3/5
Packaging: 2/5
Overall: 3/5



What they claim:

Delivers all the radiance and smoothness of microdermabrasion with significantly less irritation and stress. Reveals brighter, more even-toned skin via an advanced cocktail of exfoliants.


How to use:

Smooth a very thin layer over face, avoiding eye area, eyebrows, and hairline. Leave on 15 minutes or longer, until dry. Gently rub off in a circular motion with fingertips or a warm, wet washcloth. Then rinse with warm water.


The Good Things:

• I feel my face has a bit radiant look after each use. It's not dramatically radiant but it gives more glow compared to the mask I bought in Indonesia.
• It's easily spread in my face and absorbs quickly. Not heavy and you can see the glitter on your face which gives you the glow look *lol I'm easily amused*
• Easy to clean up, it gets pretty messy tho but it's bearable.
• It doesn't have nasty smell, the smell's nice.
• It's not oily! It doesn't dry up my skin but it doesn't leave oily feeling after you rinse with warm water.


The No-No Things:

• Of course, the PRICE! -____-" It's too expensive for a mask and for me.
• I don't like the packaging. When you open the lid, open-air will definitely go into the mask and I don't think it will do any good to the layer and your skin.
• I feel only a bit of differences and my skin-tone is still uneven. Maybe I have to wait until it's completely finish and we'll see the final result tho but for several uses, it doesn't do that much differences.


Will I repurchase?

I don't think so. I will find a cheaper and better one. Hope find it as soon as possible. I need a rescue for my face :(


Today I played again with my make-up since I don't really feel like doing anything productive (note: write report, clean up my room, STUDY) so I grabbed my NYX Ultra Pearl Manias and did this look.






What I used this time:

Lorac CoverUp C4
UDPP (as a base)
NYX Trio Eyeshadow in Dandy the left one (all over the lid)
NYX Ultra Pearl Mania Yellow Gold (all over the lid)
NYX Ultra Pearl Mania Oro (outer V & crease, lower lash line)
NYX Eye Pencil in Extreme Black (lower lash line)
MUFE Compact Modellers (as a highlight)
Revlon ColorStay Liquid Liner in Blackest Black
Lancome Hypnose Mascara Volume


still need a lot of practices of course but playing with my make-up and nails is HIGH FUN LOL


so, I've been living in Germany for 1 month. enough time to settle down already and I can enjoy quality time alone in my room doing..... nothing LOL




HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND, EVERYBODY! :)


EOTD: browny green

i'm sure all of you know that blogging is really fun and we get to know many fun people. but many times blogging can really be a pain in the as* when ppl are ignorant. i was chatting with my friend the other day and she gave me a link to a blog that apparently the owner really despises INDONESIA. he claims to be singaporean, well he can be from wherever tho.

here is the
link but it's in melayu language.

reading the blog, i laughed my as* off. he is really ignorant in a really stupid way. i told Nanzy and she said somehow she thought that the person wrote the blog is Indonesian. there is the possibility tho. well whatever his nationality is, his gender is, somehow i personally thanked him for writing such stupid blog which brings up our nationalism, yeap there are lotsa of Indonesians got angry coz of this blog. sometimes, we do need that kind of ppl to remind us who we really are.

he claims us, Indonesian, to be:
1. bunch of ppl who illegally enter singapore.
2. we have nasty attitude.
3. we are a terrorist since there are lotsa homicide.
4. they hate it when ppl see them as Indonesia descendant.
5. we are stupid in English.
6. they don't like our newspaper which saying bad things about other ASEAN countries.
7. they support Malaysia more than Indonesia.

see how bad Indonesians are? LOL anyway, hope the person really knows what he's talking about coz i'm sure he doesn't wanna lick his own as*. AMIN to that.
