// glad to be back!

gee. feels good to be typin at this space again. at the same time, it has been a good thing too, fer me to get a lil more "detached" from the cyberspace. its been too routine already.


weee. life is fufilling so far. a salesperson, a tuition teacher and a dental nurse; a makeup student; a servant of God.


feels different to have graduated. cos right now, ma only possible mode of communication is prolly thru bloggin, fer dear friends out there who are concerned how well kazumi is survivin. haha. :)


>> updates on makeup class

just had ma assesment on tues (26/6). got kyuri (chee jiayi) as ma model. i think i fared okay.. well, above jia's natural good looks, i think i made her a pretty bride that day! yup, ma task was to do a bridal makeup!


yes i know you're excited to know how she looks. but pls dont get disappointed if you think you prefer jia w/o makeup, or that you think she looks better w/o makeup. owells, its subjective. but on a personal note, i think she looked gorgeous. :D



>> the artiste, the model. so outshone by jia the celeb can. lol.



>> she couldnt stop whinin abt how thick the makeup was.. but sigh. i think you guys lookin at this proll think its not thick enough right.



>> shes so damn blithed when brendan called. :X



>> the "why-cannot-ar" face. hahaha.


i think anna and andre did pretty good makeup too.. i really thank God that i have a classmate like anna. at least whenever we get very discouraged or low-morale, we use God's word to comfort each other.. and i know that im not alone walkin on this patchy pathway, but anna too.


>> God knows us inside out.


still on the makeup class side. on thurs we did periodic makeup; the 50s. uber tough i tell you. ): but once again, though makeup artistes are not magicians or cosmetic surgeons, i still think the power of makeup is so great!


transformin a plain lookin girl like this..




into...


a mega-icon in the 50s!




wahahha. but bah. if you dont have eye for details, you prolly cant visualise the overall marilyn monroe look. but for the artsy ppl.. you can imagine this makeup. together with short blonde curls. basically, marilyn monroe's style was the out-of-bed look; sleepy. droopy eyes, archy eyebrows and very full lip. btw, the makeup was demostrated on me by mr leslie.


it was especially tough to draw on me because i dont even have visible eye sockets. lol. he's really something..


p/s: look at the lip part closely. hahaha. you'll see how much "volume" he added. i felt like ruhua the whole time with that lip okay. i wonder how marilyn monroe survived with it.


thats what i've been goin thru in ma makeup class. seems fun right! haha. it requires alot more practice than just the fun we get. still, am lovinnnn it. you'll prolly see another v serious side of me each time im doin a makeup job.



>> updates on part-time sales job

adara is really an amazingly dear product. i dont say that because im sellin it lah. but its really effective. its the first time i see maself being so confident of a product.


in a nutshell, adara is made of pure coconut virgin oil. an organic potion with no chemicals added, no high-heat treatment. a wonder for waterproof makeup removals and moisturing purposes (for face, body, hair) teehee.


you can visit http://www.sambugroup.com/html/pdtcon_adara.html for more product knowledge if you're interested.


so as i had ma fair share of joy sharin this amazin product with strangers for the past 2 weeks, i got to work with this jiejie who constantly stuffs me with good food. twas a great terror.


her name's vivien. 6 yrs older than me. open-minded. talks about anythin under the sun. resembles apple hong. and we're alike in quite a few ways..


>> her last day of work. but i guess its not the last day of our partnership.. haha. the pink voodoo was a pair. :)


opportunities seems to be comin but i am still quite cautious.. im speakin on the spiritual aspect, if you know what i mean. hmm. still prayin that God opens a way thats truely for me, and a place where He wanna use me in.


p/p/s: sigh. its great difficulty conversin with ppl whom do not share same faith as you; the indifferent perspectives and whatnots. christians are not even called to be aloof amongst ppl. i do understand that nonchristians are tryin v hard to understand the christian faith, yet i personally feel that its not all abt how much you wanna understand, but how much are you willin to accept.



weeeeeeee. this has been a pretty long entry. to satisfy questions like "what have you been doin lately?" etc etc.


this is the kinda schedule that will be goin on till mid sept.

mon: work 11am - 3pm/ tuition @ night
tues: work 11am - 3pm/ makeup class @ night
wed: work 11am - 3pm/ tuition @ night
thurs: work 11am - 3pm/ makeup class @ night
fri: work 11am - 3pm/ dental job @ night
sat: mornings are usually for zingo trainings or dental job. evenins are for church.
sun: church.



well i do actually have loose hours in between. after 3pm, before 7pm/8pm that kinda thing. so i seldom do meet up with friends. i usually use the time to do more readups and study makeup tips. but if you think you want to meet up with me, feel free to gimme a call okie. :)



>> a haircut 2 weeks back. :P



>> short hair! :D


haha. no lah its not. just one of ma cranky idea for new haircuts. hope that was enough to fill you up fer the short hiatus. tc all. loves. :)

// back, recharged.

i do not know if recharged was the right word used but anyway.. the retreat was a blast for me, spiritually. gained wisdomful insights from a passage of love, corinthians13. easy to understand, but it sure takes a lifetime to learn. plus a lil more knowledge and insight gained from the sharin of Mid-east and the bible.



worships in retreats often reminds me of the worship image in heaven. the joy and peace it brings is indescribable. and praise God, that's what we're gonna do for eternal!


i like depth. words of depth, ppl of depth, expressions of depth. but all in truth. which means... profound phrases makes no meanin to me if there is no truth in it.


gee. today's alr the 13th. many of ma friends are enlistin v soon. haha. if you're one of them and happen to be readin this right now, then PLS TAKE GOOD CARE OF YOURSELF AND COME BACK IN ONE PIECE OK!


jiayou baldies.. (:


deeply encouraged by elder tay's yrs of servanthood. im so thankful that death to christians are NOT THE END! amen.
