DIY progress

Well, not really a progress.
more like, a start.
LOL

I posted some times ago that I wanted to DIY my phone cases using fake whipped cream with decodens.

Eg:

I bought the 'decodens'.

I couldn't buy the fake whipped cream online coz apparently I couldn't 'bring' liquid substance into the country via mail (I don't really know how the immigration works but that's what I understand). 

So I ended up making my own (following instruction from youtube videos) fake whipped cream
and that didn't really work out (coz I think I put too much of a certain ingredient into the mixture). 


I made the above casing and let it dry for at least 3 days but on the 4th day, the 'clay' part pilled off the case and broke into two.
So, that was the end of my whipped-cream-design case.
I have not try to make a new batch coz I sayang to waste the rest of my air dry clay. LOL nanti tah, when I rajin to experiment. again.

So, I moved on to my second idea of DIY case; Bedazzled!


I bought the square shaped 'beads' from ebay. I was trying to remake the above picture.

But I missed calculated (coz the above picture was for iphone 5, my phone is 6plus) thus I have to rethink of the lay out and came out with this:


I used normal, school craft glue to stick all the bedazzled thingy. took me at least 4 weekends on this. I don't know how long the glue will hold the bedazzled for but so far (I've been using the phone case for 2 weeks?) only 3 tiny dots of beads fell off. so, i guess that's a good sign, right? I didn't think the glue could hold it that long. 

Now, I am moving on to my third DIY style; colored/designed paper style phone case.

Went shopping with my sister yesterday (hunting for tudung actually but I'm a woman. I buy things even when I don't need them :P hahaha) and I was looking for Mod Podge at Shabby Chic (an artsy/crafty shop for creative individuals).


it really is just another Craft Glue thingy but with stronger adhesive/effect.
they were out of stock but i found this


the sales lady told me this will make the same effect as the mod podge. I hesitated and put the thing back on its shelf and went to see what my sister was up to.
She was looking for some crafty design papers. they were on sales (everything was on sales in that shop, for krismas); 10 pieces and above and the paper will be $1 each. (normal price ranges from $1.60 to $2.90 each). 
"Good bargain," my sister said. 
Since I was trying to make another DIY case design, i decided to follow suit. 
and boy did I ever.


I bought 11 pieces + a sticker type paper with alphabet and numbers on it.
and when i was about to pay, i ran to the back of the kadai and finally just took the mod podge wanna-be. it was like 'now or never' moment. LOL

So now, I'm thinking of how to put them all together. I was even thinking about cutting off some of my SHINee photos from their album photobooks. I don't know. I haven't quite figure it out yet.

but one thing for sure, I'll be sharing my finished products here. 

and maybe make something out of this 'findings'


a/n: hmm..what do you know, a slow progress is still a progress.

Youtube, and how I was inspired to make a post from it

have you ever browse something on youtube and ended up on a video not related to the first video you watch?
Same.

Today, I was watching Justin Timberlake's ESPYS (some sport award show) hosting. He was really funny there. then, I went on watching Jamie Fox's hosting the same event from the previous years. and then, I watched Jamie serenade Serena Williams (that famous female tennis player).
Pastu,
some minutes later
I was watching this



Onew and Luna singing Can I Have This Dance at SMTown Concert in Staple Center NY (I think. if not, maybe the one in Japan, I am not sure and lazy to go and find out where).

LOL

I remember watching Deleted Scenes from HSM3 (that's High School Musical 3 for those who don't know) and also remember watching Sharpay and Ryan version of What I've Been Looking For. I know I kept repeating the A Night To Remember coz the dancing was awesome. 

oh, i found the version of Gotta Go My Own Way that I like most



by Nikki Gil

anyway,
what I wanna know is how did I go from Justin's hosting an award show 
to watching song clips or movie videos of High School Musical?!
like, what is the connection?!

LOL

I could've been sleeping ( ̄。 ̄)~zzz by now coz I felt so tired and yawning a lot at the office today
but
yeah
youtube happened.

About that Onew/Luna video, I was reading the comment coz there was a part where Onew supposed to be singing but he didn't (I remember during that time, fancams were everywhere and I also remember someone commenting about Onew forgetting his line).
You wanna know what I found?
people going gaga over LuNew. ~(⊕⌢⊕)~
and mostly praising these two singers 

example:


don't get me wrong. Luna is about the only girl in the industry that I ship my Onew with. 
It's just, how deaf and blind a fan can be?
it took several scrolls to finally found sometwo commenting about it

1.



2.


I've forgotten how the song goes in the movie but I know I love the HSM3 version just as much. because by that 3rd movie, Zac and Vanessa sounded a lot mature and less squeaky. 

Others also kept going on and on about how tired Onew looked. 
well, i bet he was, SHINee was promoting Lucifer at that time and Onew was doing a musical too. and they flown across the continent to do a concert there. go figure.

In conclusion, 
I wanna thank youtube for recommeding what video I should watch next.
because of that, I am able to make this post.
I thank you and good night!

Justin Bieber

shocking right?
hahaha
to me, not really.
Coz I've been listening to  all Justin biggest songs out there since 'Baby'
LOL

I don't really follow Justin Hollywood news.
I only listen to his songs.

You have to admit, he has an amazing voice. and most of his music releases are awesome!

I remember watching  a clip on youtube about how much of a dick he can be. but then I realized that I don't really care. His song is still so catchy and easy to my ear, I can hate him but I can't hate his music.

So,
he just released his new album Purpose and according to Jimmy from SNL, his album had gone to number one on itunes in 99 countries!
If that's not amazing, I don't know what is.

I'm the type to listen (at least!) 3 different songs over and over and over again.

1. What Do You Mean


2. Sorry


3. Love Yourself



I've only ever downloaded song no. 1 
I haven't got the chance to download the others (or in AzNuur words, 'I am lazy kan download2')

Those who said the above songs 'inda lawa', well, BOOOOOO! *throws trash your way*

I share the Live version coz he awesome!

Hello, Hello

Honestly, the reason behind my lack of posting is because every time I feel like posting, 
it was always about me complaining about ..stuff.
So, in the end, I decided to not post anything.

Let's face it, no one really cares.
I noticed, in many different occasions, that people don't really have an interest when I tried to 'meluahkan perasaan'. I guess they just have their own problem to worry about.
So, I try not to take it into heart sometimes.
I guess, I'm right again. 
Writing things down in my diary is far more satisfying!

muahahah! 

anyways,
that is all for today.
I will try and post something not-kpop tomorrow, or later after midnight.

I sincerely hope that your days had been far better off than mine.

a/n: at my age, I finally understand what they meant when they say, "Quality in friends versus Quantity".

This is Me


I've been trying to post something positive or something kpop but it's kinda hard, especially when your real life (outside this virtual world) is soooo negative.

ლ(́◉◞౪◟◉‵ლ

I should mention that I am trying not to be so negative, not to be angry all the time and most importantly, trying not to lose myself.

It has been pointed out to me that I wasn't the same person as I was before

hmm...

Initially, I was shocked and upset finding that out coz it sounded like a bad thing coming out from the 'pointer's' mouth.
but being me, I over think it. 
Of course I'm not the same person as I was before!
I'm a living thing, I evolve!
Egg.

I guess the pointer only meant that I no longer follow their wishes.
Before, I used to just do what I was told coz I was afraid of being 'frown upon' which ended up me being bullied into doing other people's job too.
but now that I built up my own confidence, I questioned everything before I do what I was told to do.

It has also been pointed out to me that I've been watched and turned out, I have quite the temper.

Surprise.

They told me that I have an attitude problem. they even put that on my appraisal.

Lovely.

I wanted to be honest and say that I don't have an attitude problem but God knows I do, so, yeah, I have an attitude problem. 
the question is, why? Coz if they've been watching me, they should know that I don't just act up out of no where.

They asked me all the right questions plang but what really ticked me off is that they already know the answer but still want me to say it out loud.
Not that I have any problem on speaking my mind out loud, i just thought that it isn't fair that I'm being singled out and be the bad person alone.
Since they already know the real problem, why not address the 'problem' instead of trying to 'fix' my attitude because of that problem? 
I am channeling Ginny right now and will call this Problem, from today onward, Phlegm.

Seriously, when I'm not focusing on these silliness, I'm ok. my temper only raises when I think about it.
So, I'm gonna leave this here and hoping someone from the office will read this and do something about it.
Yes, issue dari office. 
hahahah
So much for being discreet.
my foot.

Anyway, they said they've been watching me kan? They should also see that temper-mental or not, I still do my job well. Not excellent but at least still exceed their expectation. 
but being the bias person that they are, I'm sure they didn't see that good side of me, only the bad one for them to use against me.

and to that I say,

☉▵☉凸

and have a nice life.

my ability to 'lead' was also brought into question. and all I can think about right now is Dumbledore.
Just because we don't hold higher position, that doesn't mean that we are not right.

I remember saying, "maybe they had forgotten what it was like down here" not exactly in that words but same meaning.

sigh.

I know it's time to go. It's not even worth it anymore.
