As It Draws Nearer...

On one hand I can't wait for the semester to end..but on the other hand when I come to think of it, as it draws nearer, the nearer deadlines are.
And with daylight saving, my routine changes.Eventhough its only a matter of an hour, it makes a bih difference!

Urghhhh deadlines, deadlines. It made me 'sigh' sooooooooooo long.

So, face it.


Well, can't wait till summer holidays!!

Fair Trade Beauty

Some amazing harvesting from indigeneous communities around the world for beauty remedy.

Guatemala

The harvest: Aloe vera

The story: Twenty-five farmers, from the Guastatoya co-op in the El Progreso region of the country, harvest, hand filter and process the aloe vera within 12 hours of picking to ensure optimum quality and avoid the need for preservatives.

The benefits: Renowned for its cooling sensation, aloe vera is the ideal choice for soothing sunburn. Sensitive complexions will also benefit from its healing and hydrating properties.

Namibia

The harvest: Marula oil

The story: Kernels from the native marula tree are picked, sun-dried, de-husked and cold-pressed by the Eudafano Women's Co-operative in North-Central Namibia.

The benefits: With high levels of anti-oxidants and fatty acids, this oil is perfect for dry or irritated skin, while continued use encourages healthy new cell growth.

The West Bank

The harvest: Olive oil

The story: With the olive branch symbolising peace, it's fitting that Canaan Fair Trade - one of the largest fair traders of olive oil in this politically unsettled territory - was founded by Palestinians.

The benefits: An all-round star performer in skin, hair and nail care thanks to its moisturising and protective properties.

Peru

The harvest: Brazil nuts

The story: Every year, between January and March, more than 1000 families travel down the Tambopata River and into the depths of the Amazon basin to gather nuts from the jungle floor.

The benefits: The oil extracted from this nut is full of vitamin E and has hydrating properties, making it an ideal choice for managing and repairing damaged and over-styled hair.

Empty

Bored while waiting for the bus. With my camera in hand, this is what I do... ;))
And see how empty this city is on a public holiday???!!!!

Lagerfeld Meets The Jetsons

When Karl Legerfeld meets The Jetsons!
Its now all the futuristic vibe on.






The Shoes.

And, yes, the shoes match quite harmoniously with the clothing presented on the runway. And I rather liked the overall lines and details of this collection. However, I do have my doubts on whether the flared ankle-cuff-cum-lampshade can match harmoniously with a real-life ‘modern’ wardrobe (as opposed to the runway fantasy version of the future seen here). After all, lampshades belong on lamps; anywhere else on your body and you’re likely to be the talk of the party.

So, sing with me:
Meet George Jetson.
His boy Elroy.
Daughter Judy.
Jane, his wife.

See, I can’t stop humming. It’s okay for you to join in, nobody needs to know.

(Well, it has been a while since we actually had The Jetsons on screen aite?)

DEAD

Can't write much now.

The two-weeks break (well, it wasn't really a break for me) is almost over.

A helluva assignments!! Its now all piled up!!!!!!!!

Gahhhh!!
I'm DEAD.

.........................................................................

Reached home and was feeling so sleepy because tomorrow would be another hectic and early day.I was about to sleep when my friends came over and persuade us (my housemate and I) to another friend's hse for dinner cum raya dinner.

And so we walked to their house on Western Parade for about 15mins.
The cool breeze was felt till the spine, but luckily the weather is getting better, I mean warmer.It spring!!

Well, we had dinner i.e. rendang, koey teow, nasi impit, etc. and watched Ghost Whisperer for a bit.

And after a little bit of chit chatting, we started again our 15min journey walk home.

Ohh..after typing this I am now about to do my initial plan when I reached home earlier tonight.
Which was going to bed.

Well, I couldn't think much correctly right now.

Good night and again,
SELAMAT HARI RAYA!! ;)))
