Wear a waterproof mascara.
Use a Top coat.
Use micro-fiber (for lengthening and it doubles up as a top coat), and it helps to curl as well...just got mine from Sasa ... :p

one reason why kids make me smile
Below is a little play that has been conjured up by my little sister and her friends.
Speak the truth
Mr Mee: Goody
Narrator: My sister
Mr Faizan: Shafiq
Good: Neo Min or Kanishk
Bad: Neo Min or Kanishk
N: After a few months of studying it was finally the day of our SA2 exams. Today, Mr Faizan is the invigilator for class 5/Z. Surprisingly only two of the students came for the exam, Goody and Baddy.
G: Ooh! Today I am so anxious for I have the confidence of having 100 marks, since I have been studying for 20 hours a day.
N: And it was true
Baddy: Oh my god! I forget to study. But anyway I always have 0n mark for my exam And my parents are so ir……ri….ting they always want me to study study study and that Goody is so proud. I and sure that I can beat her. Huh!
N: Mr Faizan came
MF: Good morning class
G and B:
Good morning Mr faizan
MF: please take a seat and I will give out the exam paper
N: Mr. Faizan gave out the paper and written on the board the test will be from 1.45pm to 3.00 pm.
Mr Faizan: OH MY GOD! Got…… stomachache…. must…. Go…… toilet
N: Mr Faizan ran to the toilet as fast as lighting as the both of them continue their exam paper
B: OMG! I don’t even know a single question I am so going to die. Aye
Since that GOD OO DY is so smart I don’t mind copying paper.
N: And that was what Baddy did. While Baddy was copying, Mr Faizan came back and saw it. But did not want to alarm him so he took a video from his phone and had the whole scene of what was happening. He took a few steps back and he stomped his feet toward the class room. Of course Baddy could hear the sound from far away so he stop copying goody one and he almost fall.
MF: have you two been good boy and girl.
G and B: yes Mr Faizan!
MF: Did any one of you cheat!
G and B: No
N: of course now Baddy face is turning green as he is as he thinks Mr Faizan knows that he was cheating and it’s the truth.
MF: I hope nobody in this class cheats and if you own up you will be given a chance if not prepare for the worst. This time round Mr Faizan knew that Baddy is not going to tell the truth so he gave up. Mr Faizan showed the video to Mr Mee and he called his parents to come over and his punishment was not to watch television for a week in his house and has to pick up the litters around the school for a week or two. I hope Baddy has learnt his lesson.

Sick Chiken post
as the title loudly pronounces, I am sick. Yes - the doctor has spoken. I am down with some sorta inflammation/infection (bah.. is there SERIOUSLY any difference)of the throat. Gave me sore throat, and when I tot I was better since the sore throat went away, along came the cough and cold and lotsa phlegm (will spare you the gory details - which means I won't tell you what colour the phlegm is)
Popped an cocktail of leftover medicine from whoever used to be sick around the house (I thought since I couldn't find a doctor on sunday - I didn't know any that was open and I was too zapped to find out) - like the famous small yellow pill for flu and some other person's orange pill for cough.
Doctor also diagnosed a slight temperature, which kinda made sense coz i was wondering why i felt woozy from a cold at the office.
hahah... the visit to the clinic was amusing in a way - the doc asked me THREE times during the course of consultation whether I wanted an MC - hahah.. like he couldn't believe I wanted to give up such a great chance to bum and sleep at home on a work day. Well, fact is that I couldn't afford to take the MC even if I wanted to - I told the doc as much. At which point in time he asked me what I worked as. In any case, I'm not about to shorten my call break by any amount of time if I can help it man...so I took the chance to save the trees.
Feat of the week - sick chicken took train to IKEA to buy a trolley full of lights for new house. Wanted to die after that. the trauma of opening up boxes of lights to QC while trying to stem a river flowing from my nose mustn't have been pretty.
Oh well.. looking forward to getting well soon.
Project Runway was fantastic! Always good therapy to look at pretty clothes.. heh. now back to the stack of documents I brought home to read....

A stephen chow party
Poor Fishy, hope the thief falls and breaks his neck. Dun feel too sad yeah...
Anyway, as my group of basketballer frens gradually tread towards the great 24, we decided to have the 1st ever theme party,with me taking the lead. So it was a fun filled night, with video clips and photoes that will serve too well in those typical wedding dinner MTV featuring days of our life .... or even command some ransom if we ever become rich and famous.
Due to the extremely embarassing nature of the pictures, you can only depend on my description as much as possible.
Some of the characters from our party tonight are as follows.
Kungfu hustle
- The Fu Tou Bang Lao Da who dances with the axe
- Bao Zhu Po (lady with the amazing nagging and screams)
- Ah Zhen (the tramp)
- The butt crack guy (ni shi bu shi zai le suo wo...ji shi ni sha le yi ge wo, hai you qian qian wan wan ge wo)
Sun Wu Kong - Yue Guang Bao He
- Tang Sen Zang
Cameo
- Ruhua (me!)
- Ruhua (Taiwanese version)
Hee.... show you all when i get the chance. Nights!

happy photos
i have just finished organising my approx 1035 photos of this holiday; photoshoping some- a little crop there, some colour balance work etc and putting aside some for printing. Pretty cross eye now sitting in front of my laptop for nearly four hours doing this. Anything but the boring holiday assignment that i have dued on friday...but well i will manage that somehow.
anyway the thing i want to say is that looking through the photos again, it struck me how much happiness and fun these photos have captured and I will confess that this is one of the best holiday i ever had in Europe. Never did I remember feeling so happy before. I guess this says something doesn't it? :-p

The Cast
Hello fish n chips... glad that you like the present! Yes, I must admit my dearie has done a fantastic job on this one... haha... and the others have watched it as well, at my house on new year's eve :)
The party was great, with Tat the chief cooking tons of delicacies. Too bad, Puffy didn't get to try Tat's great cooking and u too... we had salad, prata wrap, the famous seafood bisque, Spanish prawns and steam crabs yummy yummy .... red wine, white wine plus champagne at midnight :) The gals squeezed into my room at night and we had lots of laughter when we looked through our JC photos... oh boy, I'm glad to say that we have all grown prettier!
My parents woke us up the next morning to have porridge at Chinatown - the best thing you can eat on cool morning. Can you imagine the weather was so good, it's like the morning in springtime, sunshine but cool air :) then we walked ard Chinatown and after which, our dear Damselfish suggested that we explore Arab street - not much there though, but I guess it's the company with you loved ones on the first day of New Year that matters... Oh dearie, we miss u!!!

cafe rouge for xmas lunch
it was really difficult to find anything on the 25th. London was deserted as a ghost town. even macdonalds and starbucks let us down when we were desperate for toilets. found this cosy rest called cafe rouge, it was a lovely way to spend the afternoon and also to rest from having walked great distances (the tube was also closed...argh)
my food was so so so delicious, as u can see from the pic. :p

Back from London
Hey dear friends,
me is back from grand ole London. The trip was Amazing! with a capital A and an exclamation mark. Firstly, the weather held up so nicely that I felt as if I was living an oxymoron; in fact, the biting cold here in my second home, Rotterdam makes me crave for London with which I have postulate what is known as The London Effect.
Symptom 1: You feel that it’s good to be home but yet crave to be caught up all over again in the bustling of the London city.
Symptom 2: Everything feels so darn cheap here now compared to the skyrocket ones over in England. Today we were raving about the chicken and rice set mean we got for euro 3 (sgd6), in London a simple kebab (pita bread, vege and meat) sets you back at least a good pound 4 (sgd 12)
Symptom 3: Dutch starts to look foreign all over again. just when you are used to seeing everything in English once again.
Symptom 4: must say though that life seems to be moving at a slower pace now, not necessary bad in fact enjoyable. At least people do not bump into you and then walk off in oblivion (such is the common behaviour of the jaded Londoner; or may be it is just me?)
okay I can't think of more symptoms, gonna leave you with loads of pictures from my trip, took about 380 give and take.
oh and how many can I say this, you girls look great in the photos, really put a smile to my face to see the pictures.
