GMH - life if beautiful today

when my sister was younger, she came home from school one day and demanded that i take her to the library so she could get books on sign language.

i asked, why? she told me there was a new kid at school, and was deaf and she wanted to befriend him.

today i stood beside her at their wedding, watching her sign "i do". -- GMH

Finally,

good skin day !! (excuse my sqaurish high forehead though)

Skincare

It's been almost 3 weeks since i first spotted patches on my face. And few days ago, i realise that the patches had sorta stopped surfacing *touchwood* I don't know what i've done/ate to cause the photosensitivity, neither do i know what i've done/ate to subdue this demon. All i knew was, i started on a massive skincare regimen since the 14th and there isn't any visible results till like few days ago ?

So here's what i've been doing.

14 JAN - went for my usual bi-monthly (inserts guilt face) facial sesh and bought an Aquatherm Recovery O2 Pack, to add-on to my usual facial treatments. The O2 Pack was recommended for sensitive and reactive skins. Note, this was before Yuki and i knew i've got sunlight allergy, so kudos to Yuki for the spot on !! Oh by the way, the O2 Pack was said to soothes and calms sensitivity, alleviates rosacea and redness, strengthens the skin from environment and prevents premature ageing.

I know of many beauty therapists who hard-sells alot and enjoys "cheating" us into buying their products but i've been with Yuki for years and all these while, she's been recommending me the most basic/cheapest deals cause she said i don't need any additional features as yet, so i knew i had go for the O2 treatment if i wanna have a decent complexion by the Chinese New Year.

Unfortunately, the patches are still as bumpy and red after my first O2 sesh but one thing i know for sure is that the patches don't itch and flake that frequent anymore and i suppose that's good for a start ?

And the following, is basically my daily skincare regimen:

In the Day:
Cleanse - Vichy Normaderm Deep Cleansing Gel
Tone - Clinique Clarifying Lotion 2
Mask - Clinique Pore Minimizer Refining Mask
Suncreen - Dermatologist's housebrand

I used to switch between the Vichy Normaderm Deep Cleansing Gel and Bio-Essence Tanaka White Gentle Cleansing Foam on alternate days cause i thought the Tanaka White worked pretty well for me too. Until recently, i realise that after cleansing, the skin feels a tad too taut and i could prolly hear the squeaky sound when i wipe my face, no joke !! So i guess i'll just stick to my loyal Vichy Normaderm Deep Cleansing Gel (:

In the Night:
Cleanse - Vichy Normaderm Deep Cleansing Gel
Exfoliate - Ginvera Green Tea Whitening Marvel Gel
Tone - Clinique Clarifying Lotion 2
Mask - My Beauty Dairy Assorted Masks

I've been hearing lotsa raves and wanted to try out the exfoliator from Cure but it's just way too expensive for an exfoliator luh. Would be triggerhappy if anyone could get me that as a gift ! Watsons' selling it ! LOL :D

Oh by the way, in case your're wondering, yes i mask twice a day, everyday. I don't know if this is good or bad but i love the aftermath feeling that the MBD leaves on my skin. Too bad none of my friends are in or going Taiwan anytime soon. Else i'll make sure they lug home a dozen boxes of MBD home for me.

Okay. I guess i'll need to stop. Lunch time and i'll need to hit Sociology once again ):

Material-lust

oh soooooo yummy, yet so un-huishan, lol

Not in the best of mood

Red patches kept surfacing on my face (to be exact the left side of my face left cheek, right cheek and forehead) recently. The photo above doesn't quite show the redness and seriousness and but in reality, it's really red and puffy and huge ! They itch, they flake, and they are extremely dry and wrinkly looking. I'm crossing my fingers that it's not Eczema cause i already had an awful time fixing my previous first ever acne outbreak and now that it's finally cleared and the scarrings are almost gone, i get such red puffy patches on the cheecks and forehead.

(edit)

I've finally consulted a Dermatologist and i was said to have Photosensitivity. Initially i thought it was being sensitive to photos which didn't make much sense, and upon clarification, i burst into mad laughters.

pho⋅to⋅sen⋅si⋅tiv⋅i⋅ty  /ˌfoʊtəˌsɛnsɪˈtɪvɪti/ [foh-tuh-sen-si-tiv-i-tee]
–noun
1. the quality of being photosensitive.
2. abnormal sensitivity of the skin to ultraviolet light, usually following exposure to certain oral or topical drugs or to other sensitizing chemicals and resulting in accelerated burning and blistering of the skin.

I can't believe that yours truly, a swimmer (back then), is now allergic to sunlight.

& so she says

Haven't been blogging much of late. Had an absolutely awesome time slacking since i had my wisdom tooth surgery. Teevee-ing, prawning, missfayne-ing, cougar town-ing, the vampire diaries-ing, sleeping (inserts an extremely guilt-face) Seriously, i so need to adjust myself back to school mood. Alrights, here's some proper updates, in no specific order.

1) I gave my mane a brand new makeover

Did my hair at Ikon last Saturday. Spent half the day at the salon for a new cut, a new colour, and a relishing hair treatment. Pampered much, no ? And oh, did i mention that i totally dig the chicken-salmon teppanyaki lunchbox that the-special-boy ♥ bought for me ? Switched my side-swept fringe for good ol' bangs (to match the cheongsam, haha bullshit i know) and bronzed up my hair. Totally dig my new hair but i'm starting to miss the old length though. No after-photos After-photos can be seen at my shop (:

2) MissFayne has updated (:

cny part 2: click here to view the full collection !

3) Partnership issues/ Delay in shipment

Had some issues with the progress of the stocks and shipment. Promises made are not kept to, leaving with me "a whole lot of backside to clean". But anyway, there's some slight progress and hope that the shipment will still arrive on time as scheduled and promised.

4) Test shoot for Ikon

Okay, enough for today. Will blog soon again (:

Hello World !!

Finally, my first post of 2010 !! Embraced my 2010 with open arms - Prawning plus steamboat and fireworks by the rooftop. 2009 came, and left. 2010 spells a brand new start and i shall put everything rotten behind (2009 stinks) and and, i really really hope that 2010 will be good one. GO GO HUISHAN !!

Yam Paste FTW !

MERRY MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL !!

My weight has been going down, down and down since the day i had my surgery. Was 112lbs on Wednesday before the surgery. Then it went down to 108lbs on Thursday, and today (tadah!), the scale reads 105lbs !! Seriously, this has got to be the one and only thing i love about having my wisdom tooth operated on. Apart from the aftermath pain and swell that is.

And because of the swell and open wound (yada yada) the only thing i could consume is,

No regrets cause after all, its my favourite dessert (:

ps, havent been wearing my retainers for the past 2 days, and there's like a visible hole between my two front teeth already ):

FML !!

FML !!

Surgery, in 12 hours time

SURGERY IN EXACTLY 12HOURS TIME !!

Oh well, i know it's just a normal wisdom tooth surgery (read, not extraction) and everyone has to go through it sooner or later but hey, the other time when i was trying to extract my lower left wisdom, i had muscle (gums) spasms due to anesthetic allergy okay !! And so, Dr Tan recommended Sedatives this time round - for both my lower left and right wisdom.

Googled abit bout Sedation and guess what i found ? Please realize that sedatives are used to control anxiety, not pain. So what ? Will i like wake up in pain in the middle of the surgery ? Haha !

Intravenous sedatives are medications used to control anxiety which are administered by way of injecting them into one of your veins ("I.V."). In general, a deeper and more controlled level of sedation can be achieved when using intravenous sedatives as opposed to nitrous oxide or oral sedatives. Typically intravenous sedatives are administered by oral surgeons (as opposed to "general dentists") because they have the specialized training and monitoring equipment need when using these medications. Some intravenous sedatives have an "amnesic effect." This means that when they are used the patient will have no recall or memory of the dental procedure.

Your dentist will need to provide you with specific instructions regarding their use of the intravenous sedative chosen for use with you. It is very important that you follow these instructions. Usually included in these instructions are rules about not eating or drinking for some hours prior to the administration of the sedative.

Alright. Gotta hit the sack already. Waking up at 8am tomorrow morning to have a heavy breakfast so that i can fast 4 hours prior to the mini op.

Advance Exam Schedule = Starts Mugging Now !

Yan showed me the link to our advance exam schedule and damn, i sure have a fxcked up schedule.

Principles of Sociology 6th May 2010
Macro Economics 6th May 2010
Management Science Methods 11th May 2010
Micro Economics 13th May 2010

And this morning, she showed me another more fxcked up schedule and i think, i'm still not the worst. 4 units (2 foundations, 2 furthers) in just 2 days, go figure. Haha :D

I hit the big 5

My recent weight gain is horrendous. It's seriously getting to me. Momsie keeps calling me fat. I feel like crying when i got onto the scales. I feel like killing myself when i look into the mirror. And everytime after i eat, the guilt totally consumes me.

I need and i want to lose those fats but i really don’t wanna go back to that starve-myself-and-run-like-mad days. It's fxcking miserable to run on an empty stomach.

Are you excite ?

HK AND JM ARE FINALLY BACK !!

Been hearing much raves from them on the samples i've drafted up. And now, i seriously can't wait for the last sample to reach us so that i can look at them (like finally phew), do the necessary alterations and chopchop bulk produce it for all of you !! Can't wait to see my pretty samples, can't wait to wear my pretty designs. Hoho (:

I'M SO EGGGGXITED !!

Because i'm bored

Hey everyone ! Logging into Wordpress for a wee bit while waiting for my touch to get fully-charged before i offiicially hit the sack. Yes yes i'm blogging because i got bored while waiting and i'm really really sorry for the lack of updates but i've really got nothing new going on recently other than lectures, mug, tests, lectures, mug, tests, and the cycle goes on and on. Oh, i met up with my FYP mates last Saturday over dinner at Simpang Bedok after my Christmas shopping though.

And surprisingly this week has got something new and i can forsee a mad busy me. I've got :

(1) more mugging and catching up of lectures to do (yes, books again)

(2) getting MissFayne's designs finalised (hopefully)

(3) butter on Friday night (tbc)

(4) a Sunday 830AM MSM lecture (which i'm intending to skip anyway)

(5) test shoot for Icon's upcoming service
(6) meetup with club21 colleagues to pass them the items they got from me.
(7) run with the Baby (he said i'm getting to fleshy)

Time check. It's officially Wednesday now. Midweek already, and i'm nowhere near to getting the above mentioned accomplished. And to add on to my misery, everything's scheduled for the weekend ! So many things to do, in merely 48 hours. Well dona la Huishan !!

Oh by the way, my clip-ons had arrived and i'm lovin them much. It totally gave me the volume (ok, maybe i don't need the volume) and length that i needed. The only downside is that the clip-ons are really long and my natural hair is too thick. So if you squint close enough, there's actually a mini bump at where my real hair ends.

Okie dokes, the touch is charged. Now it's my turn to go get charged ! :D
