30.

Before we start, what is your name?
Michelle. 

When was the last time you watched the sun set?

At New Zealand. It was beautiful. I love watching the sun set. (: ♥ However I prefer to watch the sunrise. ;3

Do you like anyone?

Now, not really. 

Is it more than one person?

Can't even say it's a person, HAHA. ;P

Do you brush your teeth everyday?

Of course. 

Who is your inspiration? Why?

Hm, don't really have an inspiration, sadly. 

Would you ever have an open relationship?

No, don't really see the point in it, since it might as well just be friends with benefits. 

By societies standards, are you attractive?

I can't say, since the standards always change. 

Would you let your kid smoke weed?

No, because it's not good for your health. 

Are you a hypochondriac?

Not really, since I love food too much. ♥

Are you mentally stable?

I wouldn't say so, no. ;P

Do you wear glasses?

No, used to. ;D

Are you single?

Yes. 

If you are, is it because you are afraid of commitment? 

No, not really. 

If someone liked you, how would you want them to tell you?

In person. 

If you are single, are you looking for a partner? If you aren’t, do you watch Jersey shore?

No, not at the moment. And no, don't watch it, but I'm highly intrigued. 

When was the last time you yelled at someone?

Can't remember, but probably at my sister, since that's how we asians communicate. LOL. 

Are you okay?

Now, yes. (: 

If you are a girl, are you telling the truth? If you are a guy, have you ever played with barbies?

Yes. 

Are all guys liars and cheaters?

No, but I know they are out there. 

What is your favorite movie?

Forrest Gump. ♥

Do you have something to say?

No, not now. (:

Do you ramble?

Yes, a lot. So much that when the person receiving is silent, I get worried I said something wrong. Or they aren't interested. Or they are simply annoyed at me. ):

Do you want to change the world?

Yes. 

Are you watching tv?

No, don't watch very much. 

Do you think marijuana is safer than alcohol?

Honestly, both of them can't be great for you. But I think so, since you won't do so many stupid things as you would if you were drunk. But health wise, I think alcohol is better. (:

Are you a good artist?

I guess to an extent. 

Do you know how to study properly?

No, but I just try to cram in all the information in my brains. 

Do you listen to music daily?

Wouldn't say so, no. 

Are you listening to music now?

Nope.

Update: Online Shopping and Healthy Snacking?

So I don't know if I've blogged about this, probably not, but some time ago, I bought a couple of things off eBay. Oh, one tip when buying things off there, look mostly for the seller that are rated as 'Top Seller'. I guess those are the ones with the most positive feedback from costumers and are more trustworthy? I guess. (:

Anyhoo, I bought some studs for clothing and they finally arrived today. All the way from Hong Kong. ;D So happy! It was a nice surprise after coming home from school today.

Oh, at school today, had Cross-Country which is a long distance running competition within your age group at school. It was a surprise to me, since I didn't know until I got to school. So so tiring and hot, but the hot was nice since it was chilly in the air. Didn't get a place but made it in the allocated time - 25 minutes.

Also had a history elective test today. It was source-based questions. I made my expectations of the test to be really hard and high, so when I did do the test, it was fortunately easier than I thought. Which was good. (: Less time to mindblank, more writing, HAHA. ;P

Okay, back to the studs. I bought two packets of 100 pc of silver and gold studs. And they also gave me a free gift with bronze star studs! So sweet of them. ♥

It was in bubble wrap since the spikes of the studs are quite sharp. (:

Took them out. ♥ ♥ 

Shall put these on my collared clothes once I find the time, and use the remainders on some of the shoulder areas of some clothing if I have the time. And also on my shorts. ♥ Oh the list is endless. ;) Getting excited, lol.

Today, went to Woolies after school to get some dips. Got Hommus and French Onion. I cut up some strips of celery and used the dips to add some flavour. Omg, best snack ever! ♥ ♥ Was so good, and my sister ate some too. (:

So good. ♥

Tomorrow, I have a maths test so need to study for that. And also need to start on my English essay soon as well. Ahhh, so many things to do, and so many assignments due.

So thanks for reading, sorry for the lack of posts. I'm planning to do some tag posts next. (:

Update: Badminton Competition !

Ohmygosh, please forgive me, haven't updated in quite a while, I know.

On Saturday, I had a badminton competition for school, and I've been waiting to post about it, but I was waiting for the group photo that our captain took, and I just received the email today. The post wouldn't be complete without a good groupie photo, yeah? (:

Anyhoo, on Saturday, Julia ( www.littlemisscrayons.wordpress.com ) actually arrived pretty early to the venue, around 8A.M. But it took a while to get there. The rest of the people arrived, and we went inside their gymnasium. Their school was a French School, and there was only one school we were against, and it was their badminton and tennis team. And somehow their tennis team was better than their actual badminton team, HAHA. They came first.

They all spoke in French, and they were all around the ages of 10-13, and a majority of them were boys. So we girls, were against younger boys. And what's worse than that? Getting beaten by them. Miserably.

I was in the second team along with Julia, and somehow I ended up as captain of that team. We only had two teams, the French school had 4. ): Anyhoo, Julia and I were entered as doubles, and also as singles.

Ohmygosh, they were so tactical and hard. They were so professionally trained, and apparently, this was their first competition. We lost all of the first matches of the Team we versed. They were so cute and small, but so deceiving, HAHA.

Up til the last team, we had to verse the other team to determine the 5th or 6th place; a.k.a, the last or second last place. Unsurprisingly, we came 6th ( last ) but considering how little we train, we did pretty darn well. However, I did manage to win one match against this mega cute boy named Elliot. He was having mini tantrums, and we were already tired when we tied at 5-5. He was making cute comments like: 'What is this?' 'What the hell.' 'Ohmygod, this is so tiring.' Around halfway through the set, I asked for time out since it was so tiring.

Then half way through the second set, he swore at me. Yes he did. He actually said: 'F*ck you.' But he said it kinda smiling, so I took it as a joke, so I laughed, and I guess he laughed abit. HAHA. It would've been hell if I replied as: 'F*ck you too.' HAHAHA.

Anyhoo, the day was pretty successful, one of the best experiences I'll never forget, since they spoke in French, and their accents were so cute. ♥

Oh, and had Subway for lunch with a free cookie from Julia. ♥ Thanks again, girlie. (:

Thanks for reading,

Update: ANZAC Day and the Avengers

First and foremost, I want to say thank you to all the soldiers that fought bravely in the wars, past and present. They have so much courage and bravery, that it is so important we remember and honour them on this special day. Lest we forget. ♥

Image taken from IMBd site. 

Today, went out to the movies to watch 'The Avengers' which came out today. Was so excited for this! ♥ Went to the 12P.M session, and it did not disappoint, to say the least.

" Nick Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D. brings together a team of super humans to form The Avengers to help save the Earth from Loki and his army. "

This movie was so good! ♥ Definitely one of my types of movies. ♥ ♥ Rate it 19/20. ;D

Anyhoo, went shopping and got some Typo pens.

Also got my formal dress from this cute shop 'Ally' but going to return it because, found a better one online. However, they have sold out, so I shall see. (:

Tomorrow, have badminton training in the morning and also have to present a group aerobics routine. Really need to finish off my maths homework right now. I also have a badminton competition this Saturday which I'm completely pumped about. Love badminton. ♥

Update: Photo Booths & Another Beauty Haul

Today, stayed at home for a while to do my maths notes, before heading out with my parents for lunch. (:

We went to the mall to get a few things at Coles and I picked up this really cheap beauty pack from Rimmel. (: At Kmart, got a nail polish remover since I ran out a couple of days ago.

Sally Hansen Acetone-Free Polish Remover
Rimmel London Volume Flash Mascara x10
Rimmel London Kajal Kohl Eyepencil in Jet Black

At the mall, there was a stall of free samples of the new Nescafe 3 in 1 coffee and they had a photo booth and you could go for free. (: Took a cup, and queued up, and went with my mum. Got some free sachets as well. They were really good. ♥ The photos were really good as well. (: Two strips were printed out. Gave one to my mum. ♥

School is starting soon. One more day tomorrow, and that's it. ): So sad, the holidays passed by so quickly. Felt like yesterday, I was sitting in the coach at New Zealand. I miss that place. </3

Anyhoo, not much to add, but thanks for reading!

Update: ADRIANO ZUMBO Macaroons & Chinese Gardens

Today, went to Darling Harbour which isn't something we usually do. My dad initially wanted to go to the Casino to have a look, but then we just walked around the streets. But it was fun! (:

So we first went to Star City, and there was this really cute patisserie that everyone talks about; 'ADRIANO ZUMBO'. I had no idea what everyone was raging about; just something about macaroons, and work experience, etc. So when I first saw it, I got excited since I wanted to know what all the 'fuss was about'. 

There had so many macaroons - ohmygosh. 

But my mum was nice enough to buy a pack of 12 for $30, which was so expensive. There were 10 flavours in total, so I got one of each and also got one extra of 'Watermelon Zumboron' and 'Annuziata Chocolate'. There was even a popcorn flavour, HAHA. 

There's this really nice restaurant named 'Din Tai Fung' and they sell the best 'Xiao Long Bao's ever! ♥ Anyhoo, really pricey but still good. ♥ Had many dishes. Sorry about the photos, the lighting was horrible. ):

After lunch, walked around to the Imperial Chinese Garden. My sister and I only went in since it was quite costly. Seriously, everything in the CBD is costly, HAHA. It's really pretty there. ♥

Walking walking. 

 Look what we found. ;D

 We found a mother duck with her ducklings. They swum so fast, which is why the photo is so blurry.

After that, we went to Meet Fresh which is a Taiwanese dessert restaurant. Their desserts are really good! ♥ Shared this with my mum. (: 

Anyhoo, need to wrap this up now, have to go to bed since I have tennis training early tomorrow morning.

Thanks for reading,

Update: Beauty & Hair Haul

Today, went out to go shopping and I bought a whole crapload of stuff from 'Chemist Warehouse' which is a really cute, cheap chemist. (:

I bought a new Olay cleanser, witch hazel and moisturiser. (: I actually got the Listerine from Woolworths.

Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture for sensitive skin;
OLAY pore minimizing CLEANSER + SCRUB
T.N. Dickinson's All Natural Witch Hazel
LISTERINE Whitening Enamel Protection

Went to another hair salon and bought some rounded ceramic brushes for my hair. Got two - one for long hair and one for the fringe. So freaking expensive, but still got them. ♥

TIGIPRO Large Round Brush and BRUSHWORX White Pearl 

This one was the most expensive but this one's professional salon. 

Took off their packaging. 

Had handmade noodles for lunch from this really good restaurant.

That's basically it for today, need to finish off my maths homework, which is taking me forever. Then need to start reading the book '1984'. (:

Thanks for reading,

Update: Haircut, Photo Inspirations & Workout Shorts

Yesterday, went out with my family to SPOTLIGHT where they sell fabrics and textiles items, but they didn't have what I wanted so we went to Adidas since it was on sale. There I bought a pair of shorts that were $20, and another $20 swimsuit since my old one is too tight. That came out wrong... lols.

Forgot to take pictures of them, my bad, sorry; such a bad blogger, I know. LOL. Afterwards, booked an appointment at my hair salon to get my hair cut. Got it cut by this cute chick ( no homo ) named Natasha. She was really nice. (:

Don't have a photo of my hair now, but basically the only drastic change is that my fringe is thicker and it practically covers my entire forehead, HAHA.

But here are my inspiration pictures of this cute chick named 'Kierra Folsom', check her out, she sings like an angel. (: I printed it and took it to the salon. (:

Anyhoo, today, going to go grocery shopping, so need to wrap this up. Sorry for a really short post.

How Asians Take Photos.

This is hilarious, but definitely true. Being Asian, I honestly take photos in strange positions, just to get that 'right angle' HAHA. Now I really know how unattractive that looks, lol.

In the Search for Kiwis: PART VI

On this morning, woke up early - 6.30A.M and went to watch the sunrise after getting ready. It really was something, especially when the clouds were right above where the sun was coming up, so the light that reflected back had bits of pink, orange and yellow. ♥

Edited this one on Instagram but below is one my dad took, unedited. (: 

So after breakfast, we packed our bags to leave, and we went to another place where we could feed and mingle with alpacas which are so cute. Anyhoo, here are some pictures. (:

After buying some things over there, we headed to Christchurch to have lunch. However, since we were leaving to Australia that day, we had to depart our tour guide and join with another guy to tour a bit of Christchurch before heading towards the airport. We went to a botanic garden which was really nice. (:

So we headed off to the airport, said our 'goodbyes' and 'thank yous' and chilled before our gate was open. Got our luggage checked in and everything, and just looked around the shops. There was this really cute vintage looking store named 'Toi Toi' or something and everything inside was so cute but expensive. I seriously wanted everything there. Edited photos I took instore with Instagram. (:

Really really want that bag. The price? - $300 something. 

 Really wanted this mug but was really really expensive.

Cute SCRABBLE mug. 

Anyhoo, we had dinner on the plane which I actually forgot to take a photo of. Watched 'The Darkest Hour' and some of 'Immortal' on the plane. Such good movies! ♥

Thanks for reading!

In the Search for Kiwis: PART V

We started by travelling to Dunedin, and by the time we got there, it was time for lunch, so we had lunch at this nice Chinese restaurant, again. Then we had free time to 'explore' the city. They had really nice cathedrals and what not. ;D

My dad took this photo, isn't the lighting something? ;D ♥

So after looking around, we drove to the 'World's Steepest Street' to walk it. And buy a certificate for it. ♥ It was definitely hard to climb it, it was seriously steep. The street is called Baldwin Street. ;D

From here, you can see how steep the road is by looking at the angle of the houses, LOL. 

And how it looks about half way up the street. 

The view was amazing as well! ♥ 

Afterwards, we drove to some beach that before the sun set and they had the most interesting rocks ever, LOL. They were really round, and one of them was broken and you can also say their relatively hollow. :/ Stood on one to take some photos though. (: 

The rock I was talking about. :P 

The rock. ;D So round. ♥

So after that, we went to a lookout to watch the sunset before heading off to watch these penguins come onto the beach. The cameras couldn't focus on the sunset, and we weren't allowed to take photographs of the penguins, but they were really cute. After watching them, we went to dinner at another hotel, which was steak which sides. It was so good, since I love my steaks medium rare! ♥

Anyhoo, chilled in our rooms afterwards, and went to bed. (:
