Bun tutorial


image1xxl

Go on Youtube (or Google) and just search for 'hair bun tutorials' or 'messy bun tutorials' and you'll find plenty of videos on them. But here are two that I've found pretty useful; one that is really simple (here) and the other, a little more tedious but I think it looks less sloppy and closer to my updo (here).

Alternatively, I think these pictures are good enough to illustrate how to get a nice fluffy bun :)

"Oh my god, I love your skirt! Where did you get it?
It was my mom's in the 80s.
Vintage, so adorable.
Thanks.
...
That's the ugliest skirt I've ever seen."

This dress always remind me of this scene from Mean Girls because it's vintage, duh.

Dinner with Stephy at Crossroads cafe at Mariott, talked till the cows came home cos we haven't seen each other for months! Oh I can't wait to explore the world with her, she is EVER, ever ready to leave this place. Just like I am. All we need to do right now is to find a common holiday and viola!

So, today I missed school again and this is intolerable, it's a hundred and thirty dollars thrown away each time I skip a lesson! I really, really hate myself for being such a slug :(
Annoyed, period.

I think I need better drawing tools, I actually used a ballpoint pen for this. How unprofessional. Then again, this isn't my profession.

I missed you, Alli. x

Give me a pencil and I'll draw you the ocean

When I was younger, I really, really wanted to be an artist.
Wish I had the courage to pursue that dream.

I visited the orthodontist just five minutes ago, no make that ten. And look at the results of my teeth, new neon colours, plus jaws that are (temporary) ajar. Apparently, they inserted something to prevent my jaws from biting together so that one of my teeth can be aligned with the rest. Great, now I can’t rest my jaws, can’t exactly chew and my grin looks exceptionally awkward.

Anyway, K and I hung out a little and dined at Wild Honey yesterday. I was pleased with the food we had, European and English. The loveliest eggs benny coiled by thin slices of ham, slightly toasted brioche and just the right amount of sautéed mushrooms neatly tucked between the two layers. Mmmm doesn’t that sound fantastic? Who cares if it’s a heart attack on the plate, it’s so, so good.

The day before I was at Spruce with buddy and caught Red Riding Hood. But my brain was unfortunately half dead by the time the film started rolling so I was trying to keep my eyes open more than focusing on what’s happening in the movie. It was average because it was produced by the directors of Twilight, haha no I’m just kidding, it’s just a movie attempting another version of the tale and leaving you to guess who the wolf is throughout the show. Yup, so watch it only if you are either interested in Amanda Seyfried or a fan of Twilight and your movie expectations are of that level or both.

Alright, my assignments are hollering. I should get going, till then. x

Alli has found her way back to Melbourne and it is depressing to know that she will only be reappearing in eight months' time. Well, school has been fun with my two pals even though the assignments are still as horrid. Looking forward to the flea this Saturday with J at Homeclub, do drop by to show your support alright! x
