Tee's Cupcakes

Today at about 11pm my gal picked me up from my house to meet up with my other gal at Canley Vale's Tee's Cupcakes to have brunch.

Arriving at the carpark, we walked towards Tee's Cupcakes and it was my first time ever to step inside it and the interior is ok, neat and simple and cosy. We ordered from the menu a Ham, tomato and cheese sandwich toasted, Green Rose tea and a total of 2 Blueberry Macaroons and 5 Hazelnut Macaroons.

The macaroons were yummy as always and I slowly indulge in the biscuit's soft shell and into the beautiful cream of flavour. It was SO delicious as I haven't had macaroons in months and was dying for it.

The Green Rose tea was ok as it was really plain and you can't taste the tea but its fragrance was splendid. The tea was simply green tea with rose petals and something something ( can't remember the description) and it was $4.95 for a pot.

Chit chatting and having our girl time, we left after more than an hour and went home.

Brunch was fun and relaxing and in the future I can't wait to do it more often and when I get my P's to drive.

22nd November 2011

Today I woke up and it was already 1:00pm, what a waste of a day. I guess I slept so much from watching Vampire Dairies till the early mornings consecutively.

I have these flowers in my room and they are so beautiful and after waking up I sprayed them with water unfortunately, I have no idea how, a bud fell off so now I only have 3 buds left for it to bloom and with 4 flowers blooming already. I was sooo heartbroken.

In the afternoon, photoshopped my invite and now I'm just going to watch the amazing race and sort out music tomorrow or later on tonight.

Clothes!

These days I have been shopping, mainly at Mink and I cannot help myself from buying these lovely clothes that are on SALE. Every time I walk in, there is at least 1 dress that catches my eyes and I have to contemplate on whether or not I should buy it and whether or not I love love love it. Like today I had to stop myself from buying a lace dress in Mink for $19 because I know that I have too many dresses.

My new clothes all started a while back when my mum bought me these 2 cardigans (only have photo of one) that she bought at trade secret for me and they were only like $5 and I love them. One is black long sleeve and the other is sleeveless and the other red and black stripes and they look so good when wearing out top with a simple singlet and shorts or 3/4 pants.

One day, browsing at Fairfield, I went into Mink again and saw a pretty peachy formal top sitting on the $10 rack, drawing me to come near it and try it on. After trying it on, it looked so good on me that I purchased it as I posses no formal tops that I can wear to church and other occasions. It went down from $30.

Few weeks later, my sister and I went to parramatta and we went shopping! There we both bought tops at Tempt. I bought a blue thin sleeveless top with collar and is one of my first official blue top (as I only have a singlet that is blue) and thanks to my sister she paid for it. The top I think was about $20 and I couldn't believe the amount of pretty shorts they have in stock and so cheap too but then I have too many shorts already so I didn't touch them.

We also went into chick-a-booti and she bought a top which she gave to me as it is too small. Its like a bat style very loose and baggy.

Few monts later, went formal shopping with my girls at Parra again and after concluding our mission we went into Mink in which I spotted on the $15 rack a dazzling orange and white dress and was immediately drawn to it. Being unsure at first if the front was too revealing or loose there, I tried it on and it sits perfectly on my body without it being revealing or loose and I immediately bought it as I feel in love with it and was more than 50% off so you can't say no to such a bargain!

Just a few days ago, at Fairfield once again, I went into the store I think its called DMZ something like that and browse around while waiting for my mum. Then I saw a floral white dress with beautiful details on the front and back with the fabrics overlayering each other especially on the back with a cut on the lower back and a zipper. Searching for size 6, I found it and tried it on. The dress looked soooo good although a bit short but it was so beautiful and summery and just beautiful. I contemplated for a long time as it was $19 from $35 and I have many dresses at home but I end up buying it using my textbook money I sold to the girls at school and it made my day. I CAN'T WAIT TO WEAR IT. It's soo pretty well all of my dresses are so pretty.

Today after the exit interview with Mrs Archer, went to Fairfield to ask about job at 2Fuse but unfortunately I fit in all of the criteria except for 1 EXPERIENCE (sigh) I regret it soo much for not doing retail and do work experience as I am unemployed for not having any experience and all of the employers are looking for experience.

Anyways, I then went into Mink again as Mink always have nice sales and bought a top for $7 down from $30. It was sooo pretty and cute. At first I was really unsure about the top because I can tell that the fabric is thin and it didn't look that fab but when I tried it on it looked really cute on me just need something to wear under and so I bought it. There was peach (which I wanted but no size), blue and lavender and I chose the lavender.

And there is all of my purchases so far in terms of clothes and also of course my lovely formal dress from The Light In the Box a super good website with really good customer service, great quality dresses but with sizing a bit fussy as they make their sizes really big.

Tired

Haven't been blogging for the past few days because of Sunday's event as we had a big party for my parent's committee that they are part of and the committee dramatically increased and is composed of 13 families including my family and all those families have children? So you can imagine how many kids was there if each couple has at least 1/2 kids.

So because for the committee they have around a 2 hour session of meeting, praying etc, my sister and I (luckily she was there to help me during those 2 hours) had to baby sit all the kids so the adults can do their thing. The children were all sorts of ages and was very very hard to manage as this one wants that, this one is doing something naughty, this one is too loud etc etc. I think to myself How do childcare centres do it? Then I had to babysit my baby brother, Andy. He just woke up before they were doing meeting and he threw a fit wanting my mum and cried for 1 hour before my mum had to bring him up with her.

Sometimes all things were calm, sometimes chaotic and went most crazy when the rain was pouring and the kids kept running out to the rain and I had to put them under control. When the adults were finally done, it was time for dinner and I was sooo tired from the babysitting I barely ate and had to feed Andy and then do other things. Then I have to keep checking up on all the kids, see how they are doing, if they need anything and

While dining, I suddenly became the photographer and had to photograph the whole night. What was so difficult was that sometimes the camera won't take the photo and jsut keeps focusing even though I clicked on it so the adults complained a bit for smiling so long but all was good. I took some really great photos.

Everyone finally went home at around 9:30pmish since its a Sunday and the house was fifthly and a mess from inside and out and we had to mop the whole house because it was sooo horrible.

Moi then showered and went to bed at 11:37pm and even though moi was tired but couldn't help but to watch Vampire Diaries until 4am XD

11/11/11 Formal

A new layout. A new post. A new start in blogging again.

Moi's post HSC life has so far been good, stable but boring. Good: freedom/carefree, no more stress, have more time for me. Boring: no job (as I keep being rejected) = staying home and baby sitting nearly all day.

Many events and exciting adventures took place and one of it is Formal in which moi will recount today.

MMC Class of 2011 Formal took place at 6:30pm at Oaklands House in the Garden Suite

Preparation

Woke up at 8:00am and bought breky at Subway for my mum and friend ( who came over to do my nails) and myself

Verdict: best breky ever from a food outlet, was more filling, healthier and worth the price.

At around 10am, mum's friend arrived at our house and we soon later did my nails and toes

2 hour session of cleaning, shaping and french tiping all my nails in white with top coat.

Drying process was so difficult! As I accidentally damaged my right thumb twice while trying to find something and forgot about how fragile my nails was

Prepared for my 3:30pm appointment for hair and makeup at BACI hair Fairfield

Service: 10/10, Communication: 10/10, Environment: 10/10 and Price: 10/10

I love that place, they were so friendly and professional and the price was really worth it.

I was charged a total of $110 and it was worth it because:
- my hair was wash and blow dried
- my curls were done section by section then pinned all up and later then taking them one by one off and shaping it etc to pretty curls instead of just using a curler and only curling, makeup was beautiful

Unfortunately, my sense of time was horrible and it took around 2 hours when I assumed the most will be 1 hour leading to my girls waiting for me for another hour as I was suppose to my at my girl's house latest 5:30pm and that was the time I finished my session

My hair and makeup with my babes on the night

Went home quickly and I immediately dash to my room (luckily I packed my clutch already) so I just shoved some jewelery

Messily put on my silicon stick on bra which took a while and wore my long long long dress

then put on my Glamour Puss Lace Heels

wore my jewelery on the car and finally arrived at my girl's house

hopped on her car at the back and off we went to our destination

The Formal:

Our crew arrived not much past the original time 6:30pm and placed our foot on the pavement in which I kept stepping on my dress due to the inconsistency of the pavement

Took some photos and on the grass as well where my dress got stained from the dirt and heels sinking in the wet grass but luckily my heels were wood so no stains

We made our way to our suite and OMG I spotted a beautiful scenery and our crew couldn't resist and stopped to take photos

Continuing walking down, we viewed the beauty of the function and entered our suite, showing our formal tickets and finding our table (Table 12) which wasn't that far and sat down, waiting for our entrees

Chit chat, scanned the place, took so photos before speeches was made and our entrees came
It was lasagne and something else that I can't recall but soon after I swapped with my babes because the lasagne was much nicer

Its either we talked or more photos before our main came

There was Beef Steak with sweet potato (which I ate and find it decent and yummy) and this chicken roast thing which I tasted and didn't like the sauce very much

Took photos outside, with teachers with group and others

With our homeroom teacher

The real party started at around 8/9 when the DJ started pumping more music and the dance floor lights were dimmed

However, the song choices SUCKED and the DJ was sooo horrible so I indulge in dessert instead and was the worst course of the night

There was a chocolate pudding and mixed berry crumble

Had the crumble and hated it and the pudding was alright

Rihanna started to play and that's when all the fun began with dancing

From then more and more dancing with breaks in between and just having fun

I felt so proud of myself as my heels were at least 12cms and I survived the whole night without taking it off and dancing hard on the dancefloor until 11:30pm but of course with every now and then sitting or photos when the music sucked

An incident happened during the night which I will recount:
- Sitting on our table with my other two girls just chatting, we spotted the assholes of table 11 looking at the dancefloor and mocking my babes with her dancing as my two girls was on the dancefloor

- We did nothing as we watched table 11 and scanned them first 1 guy did the mocking then 3 guys in total as they all start mocking my babes and then they decided to go over to the dancefloor

-Immediately my girls and I stood up and walked towards our girls (LIKE CHARLIE'S ANGELS) and this is where I phased out

- But they were surrounding my girls (the three assholes) and I (think) I shoved between then and pulled my babes over to the side and broke their master plan and gave them glares as they retreated and gossip about us and I was eyeing them as they look back at us girls on the dancefloor

- now thinking about it I regret doing that because I should had shoved them harder or knock them over or whatever ... I was too NICE

- we ignored those bastards and danced again and enjoyed our time instead of being like that and just sitting there acting all cocky and drunk

Overall, Formal was really fun as we danced and danced and we just know for sure that we will have so much fun in the future at a club where there will be better DJs.

Did not arrived home until past 12:10pm and my feet was tired! The funny and sad thing was that suddenly I got thigh cramps early in the morning from wearing heels more than 5 hours straight and couldn't sleep until I rubbed and massage it with ointment and finally fell asleep and slept for another two hours. NEVER had I have such horrible cramps before.

Our tired night out.
