Halloween 2010

Hehe I'm back to blog! (feel like giving it up sometimes)

Actually I have 3 unfinished drafts in my blog that I wanted to post for the pass few months. About the fun places I've been and happy events that happened. But some things had been bothering me and I start to doubt and wonder the purpose of certain things. It's nothing major my dear friends lol. Every person just handle the level of importance for things differently and I happen to be easily affected by little stuff. I needed time to bring up a happier mood to share my happy stuff!! Well I won't mention what made me went down awhile.. Good news is that for now I've think it through!! Omg I feel good now!! Really hope this optimistic feeling stays.

Anyway to sum up, I must learn to take things more easy! It's best to.. just chill~ I'm not talking about work in the slacker way but about handling emotional stuff for my current situation. The person who take it more hard than others will definitely be at disadvantage haha. So for my own good, I will lay back a bit.

Haha back to update what fun I had! A bit late, but my halloween was not too bad lol. Last year was the first time I celebrated that festival, and thanks to a group of friends who love trying out new and weird things anytime, they encouraged me and made me take part again! (*I looked chubbier than usual so just ignore all that)

Ok I'll start with the preparations!
Objective: super low budget therefore I hope not to buy any new attire which I'll only wear once! As we were invited to a daisy's friend's party at her house, she made things easier by giving us a theme: Masquerade. Think of masks and lace! Woot~ First I dig out a black dress from my cupboard which I intended to wear but NOOOO..... My fashion adviser Tiff rejected my outfit lolll. My other white lace top was also rejected right away when she saw it haha. But because I insisted not to buy, she lent me her one dress! Now although I have a theme to follow and an outfit to wear, I still haven decide the character I want to be. So me tiff and humm spent few days shopping around far east and costume shops to look for suitable accessories!


With what we have and what we saw, we roughly decided our overall image and bought our items!! Initially I wanted a all-white theme but as I couldn't find what I want, I switched to white and red! I love the sketches by Tiff!

You might wonder why would people spend money and give so much effort and thought for such things? It's just an event and there's much better things you can spend time and money on which is 'beneficial'. Well, I hope to do more things that I have never tried or not used to. Life's really much more, be more daring to try and participate and definitely something good will come out of it and most importantly, its memories for you to keep. Although it's a bit harsh on the wallet but but.. just experience! =D

As usual, I'll have a trial out at home lol. I don't know much make-up techniques so I'll always try at home first. Just whack colors on my face! My sis also enjoyed herself by doodling for me. HAHAHA I SUPPOSE to look eery and different from my usual harmless human self.. so.. TADA!!!

hmm... the photos are the clearest I can get, abit blur.. which makes it more scary. Good. Instead of looking like a all-white elegant maiden, I looked like a courtesan. Although I'm super uncomfortable in this 'form', the surprise and breakthrough level for myself is quite high.. so I guess there's more good than bad haha! Too late to change another character any way, so.. CHIONG AH!!

ON THE ACTUAL DAY:
Haha we assembled at tiff's place and transform! Special thanks to tiff's sis, who helped us make-up (most important). Humm helped spray daisy's hair grey and off we go!! The rest daisy single handly prepared himself haha!

After that we are all set to go!!!

It took us some time before a brave taxi uncle stopped for us!
