Revitalash Week #5 - unusual hair growth?

Posted in Under: | at Monday, February 08, 2010

Click here to see week 4


Hi all,
Sorry this post is a bit late. I did take the pictures on the right date though :p I forgot to upload them yesterday.

So week 5 consists of January 31st, February 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 = 7 nights total. I think week 5 was a sucker since most of the nights I cried myself to sleep (thinking about family, though decisions I had to make, disagreement with the bf, sad movie, etc. :p) and I think that washed a lot of the formula away.

As usual, I took pictures with Canon 50D, flash on and I rendered the contrast so you guys could see the lashes better.

Front shot - the ends seem to have grown a bit, but no noticeable change in volume

Looking down - shaky picture

Eyes shut - left eye (right eye actually) lashes are definitely growing faster than the other side

A few have come a long way :p

Okay, this is the problem shot (please don't mind the overgrown brows, I'm growing them out for a tutorial)

there seems to be unusual hair growth down my lower lid. can you guys see the small black hairs coming down like a tear stream? -_-;;; is it because I cried a lot and the formula went down with my tears???????? o_0 is this thing that powerful in such a short amount of time? :"( anyway, facial hair seems to be growing... and they aren't white - but black, and black as lashes D':

NOTD: OPI - Baby It's Coal Outside

Posted in Under: | at Saturday, February 06, 2010

This is my first dark, blackish nail polish :p

OPI's Baby it's Coal Outside from the 2008 Holiday in Toyland collection


It's a dark black polish with silver (and slightly greenish) glitters heavily loaded in the formula.
I have come to a conclusion that black polishes look so much better on short and wide nails rather than long, thin nails.


It applies quite nicely - it's not super thick but it's not thin either. There is no difference between two coats and three - it's pretty much the same so I think 2 layers is enough.

:)

JLPT Results

Posted in Under: , | at Thursday, February 04, 2010

Sorry - this is the closure post to all my JLPT-ness I talked about last year (and many years before too).

The results were finally in on the 2nd and then the foundation suddenly suspended all the accounts from their test scores, and today it is open again :p

So the results were 391 / 400 yay~~ (a passing score)

based on past statistics that will be probably be about the top 0.05% of all overseas Level 1 takers XD
and no.. level 1 isn't the lowest level, it is actually the highest. :p

So the score breaks down to
Vocab: 99 / 100
Listening : 97 / 100
Reading : 195 / 200

A lot of people asked me why I learned Japanese and what I'm going to use it for.
I learned Japanese because my school required 2 years of foreign language studies to graduate. I thought it was a great opportunity to learn a language I was interested in and that's how I ended up learning Japanese. Anyway, I took the JLPT as a wrap up trophy?? (or acknowledgment??) for my dedication to learning the language. I do believe that it is going to be great to have additional language skills under my belt, but .. at the moment I don't really have any plans with my Japanese skills. Any suggestions? :)

Anyway, it's a happy day :D At least my parents were really happy about the score :p hehe
For those that are preparing or studying for the test, good luck and hope you guys have great results too :D

FOTD

Posted in Under: | at Thursday, February 04, 2010

Just for the sake of it.

I might start using Castor Oil to make my bangs grow out faster :p


It's late at night so my hair oil weighs the bangs down, but when I wash and dry them - they curl inwards and are really short :p haha
Anyway, have a good night ladies~~ :)
