I Screamed OMG!

Whoops! I meant to give an update earlier, but work has definitely taken a whole chunk of my time. So much so that I actually feel very exhausted already. Seeing that it's just Tuesday and it's not even 10 pm yet, I think I'm in a bit of trouble. "Burn Out" alarm is starting to ring. So, I decided that I'll give myself a rest tonight and just do what I want to (other than reading/ studying). Ok enough ranting. 

So last Wednesday, I saw myself in Acer Arena together with a couple of thousand other screaming fans at Usher's OMG Tour. Acer Arena was at capacity and everyone was enjoying every second of Usher's performance. His concerts are NOT in any way over-rated I assure you. If he pops by your city, be sure to make your way there! He'll blow your mind!!!

He performed a solid 2 hours and 15 mins that night. Sang his heart and soul and danced like how you see him 'doing-his-thing' in video clips. His moves are still TOO SMOOTH! I was a screaming fan that night. Even my cousin gave me the "dude, relax" look. haha Excuse her, I think I was screaming into her ear :p

So anyway, here are some photos I managed to snap! So glad I got pretty good seats which were relatively near. Thanks daddy :p haha


I've still got OMG on replay ;)

Have a great week ahead guys!

Taking the time to blog

As some of you might know, the past week has been pretty hectic. But I'm not complaining (: Sometimes being busy makes me feel productive. (: Weird.. haha

I feel like I haven't updated my little space here in the cyber world. So, before I go back to working on Finance questions, I shall give you a lil update on what's going on. 

I was blessed beyond words last week. Got 2 gifts out of the blues :)) Necklaces and bracelets! Oh joy!
Thanks Fara!

Super LOVE! :D

Oh, I taught my first class today! haha Didn't do as well as I expected :( Hopefully the students somehow managed to understand what I was trying to say. haha You know it's actually quite hard to explain simple interest and compound interest in words. In everyday language without getting technical?? LoL I have another class tomorrow. I shall improve myself for tomorrow. Hopefully as time goes by, I'll get the hang of it (:

That's about it I guess. haha. My weekend was spent in front of the computer typing out notes for my students. Rushing to finish my tutorial work. Nothing eventful. 

I just realized that I haven't been baking for the past month or so. I want to bake!! I'm thinking about baking a rainbow cake. Or a different coloured- layer cake! Anyone with any good recipes to share? If you do please drop me a note! Thanks!! (:

Whirlwind

I had one crazy week! My diary and schedule were so packed for the past few days. I was such a busy bee as I was part of the organizing team for Capital W's First Year's Welcome Party. 

The party was on Wednesday evening. And on that day, I somehow managed to carry 72 mini cupcakes and muffins to uni in one bag and cups, serviettes and serving plates in another. I was basically lugging 2 big bags and my handbag to uni. I don't know how I did that. But later that night, my hands and legs were sore. :( 

This was my first time co-organizing an event for Capital W. I had some experience volunteering with them before. But then I was just helping out that time. This time 'round, I had to oversee food, registration, gifts, presentation, program, etc. for the whole event. Thank God I was doing it with Jess. :) It was tough, but fun and I definitely managed to learn loads from the Executive team. 

The turn-out for the night was much more than expected. It was an RSVP event, but some girls who didn't manage to do so came along too. I call that enthusiastic! :D Luckily we had enough food. And space. 

Overall, everyone enjoyed themselves. The feedback was positive! The girls enjoyed the food AND the gifts we had for lucky draw. It's so satisfying to see that our hard work paid off. I was especially happy as I was in-charge of getting sponsorship for gifts. Managed to get Bowerhaus to help us out! :)) They were so supportive! Thanks girls! xoxo
Lucky draw gifts from Bowerhaus, Oroton and Napolean Perdis
Happy winner!

Now that I'm done with the event, I've to put my head together to clear off my uni work. I can't let my extra-curricular activities affect my studies, can I? 

Time to get down to business now! Hope your week has been great! Have a great weekend ahead!

Pressure Cooker!

I've been in a "pressure cooker" these past 2 days. I'm having to complete so many things with so many deadlines to meet! I now have post-it notes plastered all over my wall with "reminders" "to do" and "urgent". 

This sounds intense. I'm feeling the pressure, but also sorta enjoying it. 'Cos I know that I'm learning and sharpening my own skills (: (which is always a good thing). 

I spent 10 hours in uni today. From 8 am right up to 6 pm. In sane I tell you. Since uni was practically my second home for the day, I decided to dress comfortably. 

Loving the heart-shape prints. haha Something fun :p
Top: Supre
Leggings: Topshop
Flats: Oroton

I'm co-hosting/ organising a 'First Year Welcome Party' for Capital W. Wish me luck! I'll be running around like crazy tomorrow. No question about it. Thank God dress code is casual! But then again... I still haven't decided what to wear. 

How now brown cow? 

Need to sleep soon before my eye bags come to life!

Saturday Night

What do I do on a Saturday night?
Nothing much or rather nothing interesting.

 I'm pretty pleased with myself today (and yesterday). I managed to clear most of my tutorial work due for this coming week. :)) and run some errands. I feel productive like that. Now, I'm left with bits and pieces of work here and there. I'm pretty sure I'll be able to stay on top of it. 

Now here I am typing this. haha Half way through painting my finger nails. I'm waiting for my left hand fingernails to dry before I start on my right. 

I'm trying on this new colour from Katy Perry's OPI collection, called The One That Got Away. You can't see it properly in the picture above, (used my itouch camera which totally sucks) but it's a shimmery pink colour. Girly, and I'm loving it. 

This pack comes in four colours. Only 3.75 ml per bottle. But it's practical for you to try out the different colours and see which ones you really like. I guess I'll get The One That Got Away in normal size soon. :p

I should actually be preparing my notes and tutoring materials now. haha Gotta run!

Hope all you lovelies out there are having a great weekend! :))

Thank God it's Thursday!

Pheww.. Thank God it's Thursday! This has been the longest and most hectic week I've ever experienced in a veryy long time. It's only the first week of uni and I've been running around everywhere like a headless chicken. 

I feel so all over the place having to get all my textbooks, attend all my lectures, attend meetings, organize events, make sure I start on my tutorial work and try to 'study' in between all that craziness. Woww! I'm actually still a lil bit overwhelmed. 

1 day away from Friday! Which means no uni for me tomorrow. Long weekend! yayy!! I would definitely try to use and plan my time properly. Need to clear up my work! 
................

Anyway... I wanted to do a post about the Five Things which made me happy the last week. So here goes..
This was my entry for a colouring contest Sereni & Shentel had for their fans. No, I didn't win. The other entries were too good. haha But it was all good fun! I really enjoyed colouring mine. It was therapeutic. 

Banana Toffee cupcake from Sparkles Cupcakery! This is superrrr yummy I kid you not! If you're ever in Sydney, pop by Sparkles at Surry Hills or get your fix at David Jones food hall. In my opinion, Sparkles beats Cupcake Bakery or Cupcake on Pitt anytime. Try it!!!

Minz Rapunzel Stone Bangle. Lovin' the packaging and of course my bangle!! It's so versatile I can wear it alone or with other bangles/ cuffs. 

English Breakfast Tea or any tea! I have no idea why, but not having tea in the morning makes me feel somewhat uneasy. Like something's missing. haha Also, having a glass of camomile tea in the evenings help me relax :))

Orange Chocolate Sticks. I just found them in my pantry at home. I think the brother bought them. Apparently, they can be found in Aldi. Perfect fit for my handbag. Quick snack when I'm on the go. But super unhealthy. So I've refrained myself from carrying this around. Smart thing to do! haha

Wow I see that 3/ 5 items are food. Eeks I'm in a lil bit of trouble here. haha

Ok, time to sleep!
Goodnight everyone!
