Friday Five: I’m loving it

Okay2 what is Friday Five? Em actually it is nothing. Haha.. I just wanted to list out five things that I adore or what cheers me through this week.

So here goes the top 1. Of course this event arouses every person around this world – The Royal Wedding.

I can’t say any further because I guess right now everyone knows and talks about this historical wedding. Maybe I create another post about this special event. So, in this post I included a photo of Prince William and Princess Catherine share a kiss on the balcony of Buckingham Palace which was anticipated by thousand people around this world.

How lucky is Kate? I want to be a princess too. Luckily I found my own prince charming (I’m blushing….) Emmm…  anyway, I wish this royal couple will have a blissful marriage and a lifetime happiness. Hooray for them!


2. The Royal Wedding Hats.

Haha.. say no more. So many gorgeous and weird hats (but I still love all of them). Why can’t fairies wear a hat like them?

3. Faerie potter

Last Monday I created a few beads and pendants made by clay. Actually, I wanted to make a key-chain and carved special dates on that key-chain. But then, there was so many clay left, so I decided to make something else. It was a fun project. Right now, I’m still waiting to see my pottery works. Hahaha… I asked someone else to heat the clay with proper technique because as you all know, I’m not a potter. I’m just a little dream fairy who always get lost throughout her journey.

4.  So Supernatural

I can’t wait to see one of my favorite TV series – Supernatural. I’ve been saving two back-to-back episodes so that I can watch those two episodes without any disruption. Emm… maybe I can wait until I download another new episode so that I have three episodes. Yeay!

5. Pot… pot… pot… coffee pot

Lately, I read a lot about coffee set. Not because I’m a coffeeholic . No.. no.. I’m not planning to buy any coffee set either. I read and saw so many interesting and exciting history, facts and design about pottery, ceramic coffee set and so on because I helped my sister in correcting her thesis. That’s why if you all noticed, my sentences in this post are quite academical and a bit different from my usual writing style. Hahaha… But I must admit, I’m started to like pottery because when I saw most of the designs, they are marvelous and very inspiring.

A warm thought

My little heart go out to everyone effected by the tsunami and earthquake. Let us keep all those people in our thoughts and prayers.

P/S: Please help by doing something you possibly can

#6 Where are those Fireflies…

The moment I wrote this, I’m still crying. Damn those fireflies. You probably wondering what the hell really happen right? Maybe you are thinking what are the stories behind those cursing flowing from my sweet fairy’s mouth (aahhh….) and all the fireflies things.

Let me share a story which I really don’t think will make me goes sobbing inconsolably…

This is a remarkable tale about a teenage boy and his younger sister in their survival set amid the atrocities of war during the post-World War 2 in Japan. The story begin with the scene of a janitor found a metal candy-drop container from a lifelessly boy lying on the floor. The janitor took the metal container and threw it into the field and a few fireflies lit up and flew away.

So, what so important about the metal container that I want to write it here? Naa… I guess I leave it to you to watch the movie. No need to spoil the whole story here right? Go find the movie and watch it. But please do make sure you have lots and lots of tissues with you. I guaranteed you that no one will walk away without shedding a single tear after watching this movie (maybe there will be someone who don’t want to admit it and he/she will say ‘oh, there’s something in my eyes’ haha).

For me this is a very great war-related movie which worth couple hours to watch. It is not about the war itself but it is more about the people who lives through it. It’s about what it takes to live your life as you cannot guess what will happen in the future especially during this time of war (WW2).

From what I read, the tale is a true story in history which the writer was a survivor of the Kobe bombings who wrote the book to apologise to his little sister who died during the war. But some said the movie and the story are semi-biographical. Well, whatever history lies behind this tale, I just can say this is a MUST SEE movie.

Version 1: Original animation

Version 3: Live-action movie

As I believed, there are three versions of this story. The original story is the animation which takes us back to 1988, and then it was adapted into TV-Drama Series in Japan in 2005. Later in 2008, based on the original animation, comes a live-action movie of this great tale.

Version 2: TV-Drama Series

Owh damn fireflies! What?! It’s not about the fireflies. It’s about the movie you stupid fairy. Arghhhh… I don’t want to continue anymore as it only bring tears to me (You know, I am a very sensitive little fairy. huuuu). So people… start searching for this movie or should I say anime instead of movie.

Title:  Hotaru no haka (Japanese) / Grave of the Fireflies (English)

Director: Isao Takahata

Original air date: April 1988

Happy watching people as I go flap-flap my wings hoping to catch some fireflies

#5 I want one!!

I want a pair of boots. But I don’t want the green ‘hideous’ boots that Tinker Bell is wearing. It’s kinda out-dated don’t you think? ….and only normal fairy will wear it but not for me (huhu… NOOOOO… Tink is so famous. Actually I felt kinda jealous of her because she has all those great dresses and shoes. huwaaaaa….)

Em.... if possible I want a boots which is slightly different from all those fairies are wearing. I’m sure it will make me look stylish, stunning, fashionable and special. ahaha… what’s wrong with me wanting a boots?

This is why it is wrong; I tell you…. Okay, meet my shoes… (Does that make me a big spender?)

Elle; Heels - 2 1/2"; Condition: 100% good

Crocodile;  Heels - 2 1/2"; Condition: 30% good - not wearable

NYC; Heels - 3"; Condition: 100% good

Mod; Flat sandal; Condition: 60% good - wearable

S.O.S; Flat sandal; Condition: 10% good - not wearable

Mixit; Pumps; Condition: 90% good - wearable

Ellphe; Wedges; Condition: 100% good

Viss; Heels - 1 1/2"; Condition: 80% good - wearable

 Most of them are still in good condition. So do I still need a boots? Or is it only a thing that what I want and not what I need. Some says you should only buy things that you need so that you won’t overspend all your money. huhuhu.. Maybe I should think about this properly.

** there are still more picts of my shoes.. i'll update later :)

"Money... money... money..."

#4 Mine, yours and hers…

Huweiii… ok girls or should I properly address every woman out there – ladies… come on, come on it is October. What so hype about October? Nothing ~ it just a BCA month and what is BCA? BCA = Breast Cancer Awareness. In support of BCA month, let’s wear the pink ribbon or whatever pink color you have. Pink -- dress, t-shirts, hat, shoes, handbag, scarf, shirts, pants, shorts, skirt emm… can we wear pink lipstick? Hehe… But please… do not dress everything in pink from head to toes. You will look ridiculous. Believe me in this (please mix up another colour like pink dress with white lines, pink glasses with a few diamonds). I saved you from a great disaster heee…

Okay, not only women can show their support for this awareness. Guys can take their part too. Men also can get breast cancer but very few cases were reported. As for women, breast cancer known as the #1 killer all around this globe. Watch out… “There’s a killer around you”

You know, we should really be aware about this matter. And for facts, breast cancer in women under 30 is uncommon, but it’s still can happen and it's never too early to be breast aware right? Ok then, what should we do? Emm… here’s what to look out for:

1.  Changes in the shape, size or feel of your breast.
2. A new lump, or thickening in one breast, armpit or arm that feels different from the rest of your breast tissue.
3. Any puckering, dimpling, scaling, discoloration or redness.
4. Changes in the size, shape, colour or position of the nipples.
5. Nipples discharge.
6. Any unusual rash on your breast area.
7. Pain or discomfort that is new to you and you only feels it on one side.

Easy isn't it? For more helps with BSE (Breast Self-Examination), you can always get to know the steps by referring to BSE pamphlets, campaign bookmarks which you can get from breast cancer centre, cancer research centre or you try Google it and download from the internet. Or you can simply go see and get advices and helps from your GP.

Remember, early prevention helps increasing the chance to reduce the risk of breast cancer. I wanted to share a quote which I can’t really remember where I’ve read it…

        “A world without breast cancer is in our hands”

 Lost Faerie in support of Breast Cancer Awareness month, by wanting to eat choc oreo sprinkled with pink  little ribbons and i'm wearing a pink ribbon brooch (but not this one in the picture. it's too heavy for a little fairy like me)

#3 Owh... It is TYT

Hello there… It’s been a while isn’t it? I had problem with my laptop last month T_T. I can’t do my works, can’t use the internet (+ downloading TV series & movies. hehe..), can’t play games and watch movies either, and came to worse, I don’t get to do almost anything… damn, what a dull life. The funny thing was I didn’t even go out because I don’t know where to go and what to do. And yet I’m complaining about it here in this post. I’m so lame….

But now, I have my new laptop. Yeay!!! I’m happy for me and you should too :) Actually today me and my friend ‘craved’ to go out -- we called it TYT - ‘treat yourself time’. What we wanted to do is shopping, eating and just hang out at some nice places or maybe go to salon. We really wanted to go out so badly because we felt really bored staying in the apartment.

At all times we were having a good time. Like last two months, our TYT was superb! No -- I’m not going to talk about it in this post because I think everyone has different ways of their own TYT. So, what’s the point to brag about my great time here. Am I right fellas?

Owh, there is one thing I wanted to share here. I’m happy that I bought this bra that month. My friend bought it as well. It’s so cool, pretty, has bright colours, girlish, stylish and versatile too. It comes in two colours. Although it’s quite expensive but who cares… it was TYT hehe... that time when we bought those bras, there was a promotion ‘buy a pair and get discount for the 2nd pair’. We didn’t think twice (evil promotion! evil sale! evil promoter but she just did her job) so we just grab a pair for each of us and later we divided the sum of those two pairs and we got it cheaper. What a good deal we got.

This bra has a second string which I found it quite sweet and adorable yet sexy. So, I can wear this bra in different style. Cool isn’t it? If you’re interested, you can check Sloggi website. Maybe you will get more info there (and now who’s the one acting like a promoter. Haha)

Sadly, we can’t go out today. We don’t have any transportation. Huhu… I need my TYT. Maybe this coming Friday we can ‘redeem’ our happy TYT… hopefully there’s no problems occur. So, you guys out there maybe you can share your TYT time too. It is good for me to know that someone out there also having their own TYT. Like what we always hear, live your life to the fullest :) Till then… bye bye. Need to flap my wings and do my job.

Gorgelicious

Hi there...this is a very short entry. Well, yesterday my friend asked me how to style her hair in a very simple way yet still looking gorgeous.

For me, and as what I've seen, this season's hot hair is all about curls, plaits and ponytails. You just have to keep it natural rather than high maintenance and you're good to go. You can add a subtle touch of candy pink blush and lip gloss to get the feminine look.
