Teenager's Rage For Internet


I was suppose to post yesterday... but my internet decided to be a complete idiot! I swear it's the people who rent part of the house downstairs. Someday I'll sneak into their part of the house and smash their computer. Since they decided to be so inconsiderate about a teenager's desperate need for internet access. I honestly don't understand what they are doing, because we clearly have plenty of gb to spare....

By the way, check out my awesome mustache ring. My friend Shakira (aka BOSS) started her own business and is selling jewellery online and at the Pakuranga Saturday Night Market where I also go help out. So if your interested check, go check out her online store Ma Cherie or come along to the night market if you live in Auckland New Zealand.

Today I had fun hanging out with Shakira and her mum at the Howick Morning Market. Where we both got some cool shots to share.

Stationary

I'm Asian so I obviously love my cute stationary. Even though it's still early I have already found the exercise books that I'll being using for my next year courses.

Weekly Scheduler
English And Economics Exercise Books
 
My weekly scheduler is so adorable and very flexible with the time frame that it can be used in.
 <==

 I write the most in my English and economics classes, so these two exercise books is plenty to last for a year's course. ==>


Chemistry and Physics Exercise Books




And these two exercise books are for my lose notes for chemistry and physics.
<==

I am also taking industrial design next year, which I don't need an exercise book for since I would be handing in a portfolio.

Also since I am a maths and calculus nerd, I go through many maths exercise books throughout the year, so I thought I might as well just stick to the standard exercise books.

Anyways I can't wait for the holidays, but I still have physics and economics exams to go.... Need to study now. Bye Bye~

Red String Of Fate


My hair was behaving today so that made life easier. If only it can do that everyday... I am trying to let it grow and hopefully it doesn't get in the way. Cutting it will result to my friends and family slaughtering me.

Today I was over at Seryna's place after a physics tutorial at school, to catch up with our sweet buddy Jenny, who unfortunately went to our neighboring school after grad. So it's been like a year since we last saw her.

I knew they were gonna take photos today which I thought I could avoid, but that plan failed... but since the photos are taken I'll share a few in today's blog.

The Myth of the Red String Of Fate


I've been trying to explain a chinese myth to my boyfriend, but that attempt failed since I couldn't remember how it went. However now that I have done my research I thought I can share it.

The red string of fate is a Chinese legend from long long ago, that the god of marriage would tie invisible red strings on the pinky's of two destined lovers. No matter, who, when or where and they are destined to meet each other one day and fall in love. The red string can tangle and stretch at times in the relationship, but it will never break. Therefore everyone has a soulmate at the other end of their own red string waiting for the chance to meet at the right time.

Afternoon Tea

catching up with an old friend = getting forced into a skirt

 More Photos on Seryna's blog: http://www.unicornatemyhomework.blogspot.co.nz/2012/11/catching-up-with-jenny.html check it out :)

Jenny also just started her blog, checking that out won't hurt either: http://jennyandherdiary.blogspot.co.nz/

Summer Is Around The Corner

Me And My Minions Of Daisies

 Hi Blog,

Today I went to the Botanical Gardens with my buddy Shakira. It's been so many years since I have been there and the revisit reminded me of all the great childhood memories I had spent there. I also pulled of some pretty good shots using my phone and a simple editing app.

I tried defining my eyes today by adding eyeliner and for the first time, false lashes.
I bought Chi Chi Cat Lashes

My Mini Gallery Of The Photo Shot Of The Gardens

The Pond
When I was a kid, I use to always feed the ducks there and get angry when I want to feed a specific duck, but the other ducks take the bread instead. I know I was a retarded child.

The Arch Entrance To The Rose Garden

Inside The Rose Garden

Growing In The Middle Of The Pathway
Well I thought this flower was very lost, because it grew on the side of the pathway where the rock wall is... It looked really pretty though so I decided to take a picture of it too.


Pink Rose
Yellow Rose

 Roses are a must at the Botanical Gardens.

Though I did risk my life from being eaten alive by the bees to get these shots. Yes, I am terribly  terrified of bugs.

Natural State
I didn't edit this photo at all, which I really liked because the background was already blurred. I love my phone's camera. 


My Minions

How can I miss the flower that I am named after. This photo wasn't edited at all as well. Just naturally has a blurred background.

DUCKS AND DUCKLINGS



 "I'm sexy and I know it"


I showed the Momo Tea Restaurant in Meadowland to Shakira, where we grabbed dinner around 9.

My Coconut Pearl Milk Tea
Shakira's Peach Nata

Shakira's Green Curry


My Garlic And Spring Onion Chicken With Rice

Again it's 1 in the morning, I must go sleep now, because I need to go school "today" for physics tutorial...

Exam Is The Time Of The Year For The Nerds To Shine


HI BLOG!!

It's been a while since I last talked to myself... Well I have been busy with my studies as usual, NOT!! leaving work to the last minute is a really bad habit. I've also been neglecting my laptop every since I got my Samsung Galaxy S3. My dad bought it for me before the practice exam which wasn't a really good idea since it was such a distraction with it's pure awesomeness. It's just so beautiful and amazing, "inspired by nature." Though it's definitely over-sized for my hand, but I still love the S3.

I've been taking pictures with my S3 so I don't have a picture of itself, but you can admire my awesome phone cases instead. By the way my S3 is white, 16gb.















This is my hello kitty phone case, it's a soft rubber type and my white phone just suits this pink case so much! I got it from Chinatown in Auckland for $18.

How can I ever say no to pandas. This panda phone case, is a hard shell one and it's just so adorable! I have been helping my friend, Shakira (aka BOSS!) at the Pakuranga Night Market every Saturday since September. Which gave me the chance to know a lot of the surrounding stalls. So I got this case from a phone case stall for $15. YAY! Even though I wanted the Chopper phone case from One Piece, but unlucky for me they sold it before I could come around again with money...

After exams I also got myself a Logitech iPad2 Magnetic Cover Keyboard as as a prize for myself, for owning all the year 12 Level 2 Mathematics students in the practice exams, with one full mark paper in Calculus, one mark away from full mark in Algebra and the only student getting Excellence in Probability and all 3 papers. Also for coming second in my chemistry exam which I full on just fluked, and got pay back at my science teacher who has been bitching to people about me that I would fail my exams. Pshhhh, bitch please. Though I will update that story next time. Anyways the keyboard is just so cool! I literally carry my iPad and keyboard everywhere.

Other than Apple tablets, my grandparents got me a drawing tablet from China during their last holiday. I have heard so much about how comfortable it is to use a tablet to draw on the computer and now I can experience it myself. I used GIMP a free image manipulation software, because I am to cheap to get Photoshop. My anime master Hannah-chan and RA, both recommend me a free drawing software called SAI, which I am about to test out after this blog. So I'll post later on about how that went and maybe start posting some drawings from now on.



Other than my update on my technological life, I have a small story to share about my love ~ life.

This is CHIBI, well that's what I call him. I don't know if I am allowed to blog in his name....

Hmmmm...

Well he can tell me when he reads this.

Anyways long story short:

I love him <3



However "sister before, mister," spending time with my 2 besties is also something super special to me. During the year the time we got to spend together got shorter and shorter, because of our busy lives and our own relationships. Which made us enjoy ever moment we have together even more.














Got my Christmas present early from Seryna. Thank you! The lip balm smell so good, it's so tempting to taste it.


Today I got to spend the whole day with Seryna and Anh. Watching "Barbie and the Three Masketeers," yes... three 16 year old teens watching Barbie movies together, we also had yum cha (Chinese Fooooood) and just wondered around.

We have been best friends for around 4 years now and we finally decide to get "acknowledged" friendship bracelets. Yes, Seryna I stalk your blog. Your friendship bracelet are very special :) I just need to go get them back from the workshop. Anyways the photos of our friendship bracelet are on my buddies blog, http://www.unicornatemyhomework.blogspot.co.nz/2012/11/we-carry-on.html  so go check them out if you want. They are pretty awesome friendship bracelets and we've decided to add more charms as years pass, because we ain't that rich ok. Also check out Seryna's blog while your at it. It's honestly amazing!!!

Anyways it's 1 in the morning now so I am going to bed. I'll test out SAI tomorrow. Good night~

2012 Wishlist

Yay! It's finally July, not only that it is the coldest month in New Zealand, it's also the month of my birthday. My birthday is now in 29 days and I am looking forward in turning 16. July 31st, lucky last day of the month. Though I know people who don't even know that there are 31 days in July, so I guess my birthday doesn't exist on their calendar...

Anyways the purpose of this blog is to write up my wishlist for Seryna and Anh or if there is anyone else who reads my blog (yeah I know no one else does). I did witness Anh discovering my birthday present in Seryna's room the other day. So I don't really see the point of this wishlist, I can be for next year I guess?

2012 Daisy's Wishlist:
  • Drink Bottle, that I can take to basketball training and school. Preferably light weight, easy to wash and maybe some pretty tinted colour (as long as I can see the water inside) and Asian styled ones if that isn't to much to ask for.
  • Alarm Clock, that doesn't tick and scare the hell out of me when it goes off.
  • Window Markers, so I can write study notes on my windows.
  • T-shirts, sweaters, hoodies, I prefer casual baggy clothes because they are comfortable.
  • iTune card or other accessories for my iPad 2.
  • PE bag that I can carry around school, that's big enough to hold my basketball shoes, T-shirt, shorts, socks and deodorant. (My current one is dying)
  • Bracelets or necklace, that's small and light weight and that I can wear daily, for school and sports.
To keep the options open anything cute, useful, or has panda. I like stationary, pretty notebooks, books, food, typical Asian stuff really.

If you know me well, I guess helping me decide on makeup, jewelley or skin care stuff would be something new. I don't really own many and I am sure people around me knows more about them than I do.

Food will always make me happy, if you need a back up plan.


Just some photos that I took today:



I like taking pictures after showers, because I feel clean and refreshed. Also my hair feels really nice and puffy.

You can't really see my rings in these photos, but I really like it and I am finding a range of ways to wear it to show the unique chain link. 



My Pikachu hat! I keep forgetting to take a picture  of it, well here it is. It was $10 at chinatown and it's really warm. It was a must buy.


This was from a family friend who visited today. I thought of taking a picture and edited it on my iPad. I think it looks pretty cool. Suitable for this season.

I missed YOU

I haven't updated for 2 months, even though I promised to update more regularly...

Well I have a lot of photos to post ^ ^











I have occasionally been tiring out eyeliner and bbcream. Though I don't use makeup for school, because I have basketball training everyday.



My basketball shirt arrived in the beginning of term 2. If your an anime freak you probably know who number 11 is in Slam Dunk and Kuroko's Basketball. Unfortunately we couldn't get our names printed on our uniform, but apparently we could at the end of the year and then we'll wear the same uniform next year. I also got some new basketball shoes "women's high dunks" from dress smart. On the right these are the same model as my shoes but they have pokemon on them! There were so many nice stores in dress smart! Yeah it was my first time there haha.





I don't know what I was doing? It was my first night at my new house and I felt like taking photos of myself.


I recently have been browsing on Yesstyle. OMG so many pretty asain stuff and the website is in English. So helpful! Yes I am Chinese, yet I can't read or write my own language. So disgraceful...

I found these cute whistle necklaces. To bad I don't have someone to wear it with hahaha forever alone.

T^T

 Me, Anh and Seryna celebrated her half a month late birthday at Nando's in Botany. It was my first time at Nando's and I had to go through the deep thinking process of comparing it to butter chicken. Which was my original plan when we went to botany.



My family celebrated our successful move into the new house, so we had hotpot party, perfect for winter. It was also a surprise for my Aunty's birthday (one week away since this picture). When we got out the cake I was surprised finding my name on the cake instead.... Don't know what my mum was thinking.
 

Who knows these two cuties XD

Jason and Pilsuk from dream high. It is currently my favourite Korean drama. I checked out 2 episodes of dream high 2, it was really disappointing and didn't watch it.

Dream High (1) highly recommended ^ ^






From term one till now I have been working on this jewellery piece for my technology assessment. It is an abstract form of my school's Pukeko norm.

It's a bracelet with a chain that connects to a ring. I made all this out of silver wire and a 50 by 50 mm silver plate. Excluding the blue ribbon and the two rings that are chained together. That was just something extra that I made on the last day (today) during class.




 
 I love my HDMI cord, because I can watch my crunchyroll anime on my LED tv. The term 2 holidays starts today so I must start hibernating and catch up on my anime.

 This is my new room!!

The bed is a queen size, but in the photo it looks huge, yay!

I had a picture of my desk, but I lost it somewhere....









This is my favourite half of my room. You don't see a couch in a bedroom often do you ^ ^ I also really love my bookshelf and my floor lamp.











This was originally my sister's 5 piece drum set, but after learning for a year she lost interest. So I guess it's my turn to start trying it out ><






Last of all BUBBLE TEA!! Taro is definitely my favourite ^ ^ What's yours?










Well this is so far what I have updated... Since it is the holidays maybe I can find more spare time to post.

BTW this was rushed if you see fail spelling or grammar, then sorry... English was never my strong subject at school :P
