★Emo★

Again, today I went to town alone
 supposed to meet up with someone... but oh well... 

was not even sure why did I go to town again
 been in town alone practically everyday this week
at first it was ok, but then you do it too often that it's getting abit sad... 
i know, i know...I did mentioned in my previous post that I enjoyed going to town alone... 
Just let me be emo once a while =___=

I've been trying to avoid all those Christmas markets, 
cause they just make me fell worse.... 
but since i had to go to the bank in St.Ann square, I couldn't really avoid them >___<
gosh... don't I sound so emo?

couldn't stop myself from peeking at different stalls that I walked pass... 
wooden toys, chestnut, sweets, german hotdogs... 
all these are exactly the same as my first german market experience in Manc... 
oh! but shaking those snowglobes cheered me up ^___^ *pretty*

these stalls reminded me so much of the memories... that just stay as memories now...
Kinda made me realised that I've been here for too long, that it's about time I move to a new environment...

★Disney★


I've been wandering alone around town a lot lately... Sometimes with a purpose in mind, and then it just became a habit..... it might sound a bit sad, walking alone in town, with all these crowds around you. Don't get me wrong, I like walking in town alone... just not when it's too busy... ^__^

I walked passed Swarovski one day, and I had to stop and turn back cause something at the window display just caught my attention.... It's this Bambi collection that they have! I just had to walk in to the store and I was like OMG!!! Bambi!!!  and there THUMPER!!! oh and Flower the skunk!!! I totally adored them...I told myself, one day I'm gonna get them and have a pretty display area for them in my home....
Then,  of course there's a winnie the pooh collection as well... which has been out for a while.... but somehow Piglet looked even more cuter that day... did they have a new winnie the pooh collection out? Anyway, I thought this Piglet looked exactly like the one B got for me from this toy clamping maching in London....

totally irresistible.....

wait for me babies~~~~~~~~


★Neverending★


Been making a Balenciaga dress and finally handed in the garment and technology file last Friday. Been working on it since the term started, been in uni practically on every available days, and yet, I still didn't manage to finish everything on the criteria... I missed one out of the many... >___< 
but it was a big burden off my shoulders.... with a design deadline on the same day as well, everyone was stressing out *EEEK!!*

And people would have thought, handed this garment in and finally we could relax...
*WRONG!*
straight away we have a new design brief... and also 2 outfits to make!!! even though they are only due in early next term... but still!!!! >___<  
oh! not to mention that we have this Anthropometric assignment which we have 3 essays to write.....

hm... ok ok.. this blog is getting a bit stressful and boring...... 

let's get on to something more interesting~~~ 


my birthday is coming up~~~~~~~ can't be bothered to think of a new way of celebrating my birthday... so am just gonna stick to the traditional way, that's getting wasted!!!
booked a place for my party, so all my friends can just come and enjoy getting drunk ^__^ let's just hope that there's someone to carry me home.... *fingers crossed*

★Haaar..... loweeeen★


I know, I know...It has been half a month since Halloween night..... better late than never though... really wanted to show you guys the this year's halloween's little bits and pieces... 

Couldn't decide whether to go out or not, cause I've got sooo much uni work to do.... but Grace really wanted to go, since it's our final year in uni.... so, in the end...I gave in ^___^

Let me present..... Baby Witch!

Didn't have enough time to prepare for a proper costume or makeup... since we've only decided in the afternoon.... but still managed to get TuTu skirt and feather eyelashes..... ^__^ 
my brother thought I looked scarily weird... but others were like... "woooo waaah..." and stared into my eyes... *sweat*

We've decided to go pubcrawl.... in the end, we went to Tribeca and BaaBar in Canal Street.... then off to finish the night at Pure... where everyone is~~~


Mummy in Tuxedo with glowing necklace~~~ preserved in style.... ^__^


Bumped into John's friends on our way to pub crawl...loving that rock star look ^__^

Noticed the glowing straws? it's the stirring wand from the witch..... *wink*

Jason took this cool pic of me and Grace at BaaBar entrance.... damn cool yea?

Ivan looking original in this costume!!!!!!

Randomly stopped this guy to take picture with... why? isn't the reason obvious enough???

Me and Grace with our Jumbo Hotdog supper.... *muah*

★Comme des Garcons★

As mentioned in my previous post, I went for the Comme des Garcons' 
collaboration with H&M!!!
was supposed to go with Grace... but she ditched me >___<
was supposed to get there by 8am... but I only woke up at 8am >___<

BUT! I was lucky~~~
reached there at 8.45am.... and the Queue was shorter than I expected... but 5 min after I was in the Queue, it just doubled up... *phew* thank goodness I didn't have to Queue for long... since they are open at 9am~~~

They didn't have a lot of the garments, just some shirts, cardigans, trousers, trench coat..... I didn't spot any of the deconstructed trousers or skirts... which was very disappointing *sigh*

Anyhow, I still managed to get the bag and trousers  that I originally wanted... there was another pair of trousers that I'm soooo in love with!!! but it's a size 12... way too big >___< *sad*  It looked sooo good on a lady in the changing room...and she's a size 8!!!  *green with envy*
But I'm well proud of myself to be able to get hold of the bag!~!~! there were only 30 of them in store.... and that was the first thing I snatched when I got into the store *proud*

In the end, I left the store happily with 2 big bags... didn't plan for the shirts... but hey, my own salary I paid them with.... guilt free~~~  AND! they go perfectly with the trousers~~~



I've gotten these two, a shirt and polo for B... but they are M size... worried that they might be too big for B >___< 
so B, let me know whether you want them yea ^___^

Conclusion...... It was a bit disappointing.... not so much chaos though...and a lot of leftovers, like the basic plain  shirts and cardigan....might have been better if I went to the one in London... but I'm not that crazy.... Von is still sane!!!

★unusual life of von's★

Why is it unusual? hmm.... let's see...

von has been going to uni everyday... except sat and sun....
von has been going to uni even though there are no classes anyway...
von has been staying back in uni till the technicians shooed her and her friends away so they can close up...
von has brought lunch box to uni for the very first time... cause she's sick with eating uni's food everyday *and they are expensive as well*

does that sound unusual? it is for von... must be the final year fever that people had been warning her about

von knows she should have blogged more often... not that she's tooo busy to go online... she's never too busy for FB!
and don't get her wrong about the uni = home issue... 
she still went out for Halloween night out (under the persuasion of Grace's)
she still went to some of those chinese parties...2 of them, to be specific
she even went to Notts games last sat!

OK.. photos....I'm not gonna put everything onto this post... it's pretty l
ate... 1am... ok...not THAT late... but I'm waking up early to fight for Comme Des Garcons in H&M!!!!!! and then back to uni for more work..*pathetic* 
so i need all the energy I can have...

These are from Operation Christmas Child, where we packed some gifts in a shoebox to be sent to some of the poorest kids in the world... i got her coloring books, crayons, soft toy, sweets etc....
Haven't been feeling this contented for a while... felt so good by the end of the night ^___^ hope a girl in some corner of the world would love my box of gifts!!!
