Misa Amane for a night

Last Monday was a public holiday and our college's student council and prefectorial board organized a social night based on the theme 'Fright Night'. Some sort of belated halloween celebration in the school.

Have been thinking of what character to play since we prefects first came out with the idea of fright night. Well, many didn't take it seriously but I did. LOL. I mean, costume parties are always fun! Many people dressed up as vampires, devils etc. and as always, I wanted to be a bit different :P

I could have just face-painted myself into a scary zombie or some shit but yea, I wanted to look good. duh. So I thought of Misa Amane from Death Note. She's pretty cute and sexy which I sort of want myself to be like that. chey. A more important fact is that she's 19 years old. Bingo! done.

The problem is that Misa from the manga/anime has blonde hair and wears gothic lolita kinda of clothing. I didn't really want to spend money on getting clothes I won't wanna wear after this and I was not really willing to get a blonde wig. BUT>>>> Misa from the film series was not a blonde barbie! In fact, her outfit varies and is not too erm...extreme lol.

So, tada! This is the outcome. quite nice eh? :)

I guess it's almost zero cost to get this whole thing done. Black dress, stockings and heels were already mine and not newly bought. The only thing I bought was one metre of black ribbons for my hair? which was quite cheap. 

Toy apple was from my house and I made my own Death Note! Wheeeee how cool is that ;)

Let me explain briefly on how to make my own death note prop.

1) Get an exercise book. ( I got it free from the 'kolej shop' lol. can even do maths inside actually)

2) Wrap it with Black Sugar Paper. (again, I got sugar paper free from 'kolej shop'. lololol )

3) Print out the logo of the Death Note and cut out word by word. ( For my case, I was making the 2nd death note owned by Misa thus the wordings are different from Kira's death note)

4) Glue the cut-out wordings onto the exercise book. DONE!

smart leh lol. =)

Was trying to act cool :P  Sexy Hana behind me hehe.
P.S. did you notice that it's snowing? lol new X'mas effect from picnik. Go try!

The Charlie's angels (SS-ing) before the party. I think we all look good here :)

Entrance.
Let's party like there's no tomorrow! yeah ✌

Loving the awesome lightings.

See I so happy. lol.

Thinking of how the hell did I dance with an apple and a death note with me?
haha I just left them somewhere near a corner and went back to take them afterwards. simple as that.

Dancing with a camera was challenging, though. but who am I? Grace what :)

 

Despite my oh-so-sorry height, I think I look kind of chio here.

yeah :) ready for the battlefield.

Awesome KTJ peeps :)

THE END.



I was really proud of myself. Imagine that, dancing with high heels for 2 hours and then walk back to your house. I know,  because I'm cool like that :D  *slaps self*

The party was okay..it got pretty boring sometimes coz it's a school event inside the campus and thus no alcohol was allowed. Meh..........how to get high wor you tell me -.-  but yea, I enjoyed more on dolling-up and chillaxing with your classmates than squeezing with people with wet, smelly armpits.

Paper Cranes for Hope

Interact related

Remember the catastrophic earthquake that struck Japan back in March?

I could still remember that was the time when I just got elected as the new president for KTJ Interact Club. Once in power, I started to think of some new project for the club.

I approaced our teacher adviser and told him about the idea of doing something for the Japanese. After discussing, we came to a conclusion to not organize any monetary donations but a more innovative way to show our concern for them. I mean, to think economical wise, Japan is a well developed country or in other words, rich. Besides, since world war times the Japanese had already exposed to us their positive attitude while reeling on disasters. They are strong people, to be exact.

"An ancient Japanese legend promises that anyone who folds a thousand origami cranes will be granted a wish by a crane, such as long life or recovery from illness or injury. The crane in Japan is one of the mystical or holy creatures (others include the dragon and the tortoise), and is said to live for a thousand years. In Japan, it is commonly said that folding 1000 paper origami cranes makes a person's wish come true. This makes them popular gifts for special friends and family."- Wikipedia

Thus, we decided to fold paper cranes for the unfortunate. Since 1000 equals to a wish, we targeted to make 2000 cranes (wishes: Peace & Hope) to be presented to the Japan Embassy to show our deepest condolences while raising awareness among our students about the earthquake. Cool right?

I would like to thank all my fellow BODs and friends that helped out to tie all the origami together into strings of colourful paper cranes. It was not an easy task, trust me.  And also a big thank you to all students of the school and our teacher adviser, Mr Kenneth Wong and family for helping to fold that 2000 paper cranes. We actually made more than that, in fact.

(LOL girl power)

 

We didn't have the chance to meet the Ambassador himself because he was too busy that time due to the ongoing disaster in Japan. This is his assistant.

The ambassador sent us a reply letter a few days later and we were delighted that he actually appreciated our cranes :)) A very sweet letter from him, but I am lazy to upload here :P

and yea, Japan has now recovered much from the catastrophe.

**If you wonder why this post is so formal, well, simple: To show my respect for Japan :) heh.

Happy Birthday 2011

Hi world! I'm back to my hometown again. Yay!

It feels so good to come back to this beautiful island, Penang! ♥

Anyway, my favourite month of the year has already passed. Boooo.

But I'm still glad and grateful that I had a great March this 2011. Lovessss!

Ok, upon arrival..

My family bought a super yummy x10000000.. fresh cream cake for me to celebrate my belated birthday. So damn nice I tell you! the cream is so fluffy like cotton candy and the fruits are fresh and juicy as well. YUMMEEEEY.

 

As time goes by, we girls start to hate the candles on top of the cake.

So yea, just one candle will do :)

My Beauty Diary Masks from mummy. So many masks! LOL

very useful, plus it's my favourite brand. LOVESS! 

每天都要更美一点。haha it's their tagline la.

and also angpows from grandparents. Heh. $___$

Before this, back in KTJ, my friends were sweet enough to help me celebrate in school. Thank you so much!! I was also glad that lots of my old schoolmates still remember my birthday and actually texted or phoned me in the midnight. And my dear roommate, Sharan was the first to wish me Happy Birthday a few minutes before 12 o'clock. :D Oh not to forget, my cacat but funny skype session with Hui Chuin and Soon Yee. Haha eh I've already installed the latest version so yea, skype me more often ok? :)

I had my good night sleep that night and the next day...

First, I was bombarded by lots of birthday wishes from all Alia housemates early in the morning.

House Board full of wishes. Thank you! ♥♥

and next, when I was walking up the stairs of 6th form centre...

My dear friends pasted this birthday banner for me on the wall where everyone else in the 6th form will notice it before entering classrooms. Now everyone knows it's my birthday on that day. Even my teachers knew it too -.- *shy shy*

2 slices of yummy secret recipe cheese cake for me during Econs class.

Ignore the candle-made-holes on the cake. Haha. It was still very mouth-watering! :)

Thank you steph and nini :)

And then..during break time...My roommate did this to our mirror.
heh. Super like! Thankiuuu Sharan!

 plus this random message on my white board. LOL. ♥ Suki :)

and then....The tradition of KTJ-- Birthday Song during lunch in the dining hall.
It was kinda loud and I was genuinely surprised. Very shy as well. Hahaha :)

Highlights of the day: Flash mob in the dining hall by all Alians.
Gosh, what a coincidence. Of all the other days, why flash mob-ing on my birthday?!
Ms Campbell even asked me: "aren't you excited to dance on your own birthday? =) "
LOL. Yea, it was epic anyway. Alia Flash mob rocks! I think everyone else enjoyed as well.



My lovely birthday cards and pressies of the day~ Very meaningful, Thanks a lot people :)
I felt so loved. T______T 

 yea basically this is how simple and memorable my birthday was. I really feel that as I grow up, the birthday spirit is becoming weaker and weaker.. I mean, I used to wish for a big big birthday party and lots of presents or in other words, a glamorous and fun one. but now.. All I want is a peaceful and loved birthday. Perhaps it's my aging effect, lol.

I seriously think that there are too many wonderful things that happen in my life and I should really cherish them and be grateful.  Now, to me, birthday is not a day to party but a day to grow up.   

so deep wei. haha. but somehow it's true.


Anyway...Birthday dinner coming soon.
well, to me, FOOD is a MUST and can never be excluded HAHA :)

Till then. Off to study~
