7 QUESTIONS TAG

I have been tagged by lovely Jenny from SkinnieGenes. You can read Jenny's answers here.

1. Which song will you never get sick of?
This is a pretty hard one as I usually go through a phase with this particular "favourite song" playing on repeat until I get totally sick of it - From Airplanes to Telephone to Halo (Glee Version) and now its DJ Got Us Fallin' In Love (THIS IS SUCH A CATCHY SONG, GO DOWNLOAD IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY!)
But if I really have to pick one, I guess it would have to be 我爱他 by 丁当, the OST for Autumn Concerto. This drama is EPIC if you haven't watched it already. I finished 20 episodes in 3 days and I had a massive withdrawal syndrome that I replay the OST on my iTunes for almost a month. =.=" I would of link you guys if my YouTube hasn't been such a bitch. So, just copy and paste it to the search bar.
ps: This song might not be as great as I make it sound if you haven't watched the drama or if you don't understand Mando.

2. What is your favourite lip gloss?
I have always been more of a lipstick person but my current favourite lip gloss is definitely Barry M LipGloss in 05 (swatches here) as it looks really good on its own and it goes extremely well with MAC Go For It Lipstick (which I kinda regretted buying until I paired it with this lipgloss) Oh, and it smells AMAZING too. :)

3. Do you prefer to connect with friends online, phone, or in person?
Definitely in person, over lunch or a cup of good coffee. 

4. Do you believe in fate?
If by fate, you mean "love in first sight" or something along that department, not really. But when it comes to life and death, I do. (Like when your time is "up", its up) If that make any sense to you.

5. Describe a perfect date :)
Have a good dinner (it doesn't have to be expensive fine dining, just food that we both enjoy eating) at a restaurant where we are able to have conversations without having to yell at each other and a stroll by the beach with my favourite ice cream. The perfect ending would be lying on the beach,holding each other's hand and watch the stars.
I am not that hard to please, really. =P

6. What is your must-have staple piece of clothing?
Boyfriend blazer - A super versatile piece and a must-have in any girl's wardrobe as it can be worn casually or dressed up for an event. You can pair it with your favourite pair of skinny jeans and a basic top for that chic or effortless look. Or you can wear it over that lovely floral dress of yours for a date. 

7. What skincare item do you swear by?
Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion - If you have been reading my blog, you would probably know by now how dry and sensitive my skin can be, especially in winter. It used to get so dry that it hurts when I wash my face. Lanolin cream works for me but it gets a tad too oily for my liking and I could not justify myself for spending $80-$100 bucks on something that will not last.  Although many might beg to differ and think one should spend more on skin care , which I do when it comes to eye cream.I, for one is pretty lucky in the sense that I don't break out easily,so I was able to try on different products and find what's best and economical for me. And I have gotta say, Cetaphil does the job really well - moisturizes my skin well, doesn't leave my skin feeling greasy and gross after, inexpensive and its scentless (unlike the Aesop ones).

the rest of you! (Drop me a comment if you did! I would love to read your answers. :D)

TAG: Quirky facts about me :)

I was tagged by the lovely Janice from Chaigyaru to mention some quirky facts about myself, the quirkier,the better. She listed 6 about herself but I could only think about 5 after squeezing most of brain juice, so 5 quirky facts it is then. :D

5 QUIRKY FACTS ABOUT ME :)

1. I am probably one of the BIGGEST sweet tooth you ever known, but I absolutely hate coffee or tea with sugar.

True story. I can tolerate the sweetness of Krispy Kreme doughnuts, cupcakes/cakes icing, when most of my friends finding them too sweet and I love my desserts. However, when it comes to coffee and tea, I like it with milk only. I find sweetened coffee and tea disgusting.

2. I am very anal when it comes to my studying notes.

First of all, I prefer my notes to be hand written (besides legal of course, as there's just way too many words to write) and it HAS to be colourful. You can never find my notes mono-colour. That probably explains the 423423984792 colour pens I own. Secondly, my notes has to be really neat and tidy and evenly distributed throughout the page. If I don't like how it turned out to be, chances are I will actually reprint the notes and rewrite them. My friends used to find it amusing and are constantly annoying me by trying to scribble on my notes, just to see me reprint them. =.=" One time, I was THIS close to reprinting half a semester worth of notes when my notes was wet thanks to the water spillage in my bag. But thank god, my conscience took over and reminded me that I don't need to kill any more trees just because of this weird obsession of mine.

3. I think I am semi- OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder)

Why semi? Well, when you see the current state of my room, which is probably no difference to a tsunami aftermath wtf, OCD is the last thing you would have in your mind. HOWEVER, I am very particular about the arrangement and organisation of my stuff. For example, I need all my stationeries facing the same direction in my pencil case. I get angry when things are not arranged the way I wanted. That explains the countless arguments I had with Mum when she thinks my room is untidy (because I arranged it the way I wanted) and I am annoyed because she messes up my organisation. The usual routine goes like this - I clean and tidy my room till its neat and sparkling clean, then I start leaving things around and have like 242348238402 accessories and other random stuff on my vanity corner up to a certain extent when I couldn't take it anymore. Then, thats when the cleaning and tidying starts again (which usually occurs every 3-4 days). Am I the only weird one or is there anyone out there who's like this too?

4. I have a weird spending habit when it comes to shoes.

Ok, maybe this is not exactly quirky but whatever. I find $30 for a pair of flats steep when I am willing to spend an average of $60-$80 on a pair of heels. And obviously, I wear flats almost every days and once every 2-3 weeks for my heels, and some I don't even touch it for a couple of months. Its bizarre. I should be investing in flats that I wear daily rather than blowing my hard earn cash on some sexy, killer cfm heels which is nice to see but a bitch to walk in. Who's with me for this one? =P

5. I like collecting books (for recreational reading purposes duh)

How's collecting books quirky, one may ask? I think my body releases endorphines when I see story books with the nice cover as well as the smell of the books. Kinda wtf but yeh, it makes me happy. =.=" I tend to buy a lot of books, both the main stream ones as well as those random ones which I think will be good. It's perfectly fine if I read them but I don't, well at least not immediately. I wrap them nicely, store them on my book shelf (while collecting dust at the same time =.=") for a good 3 months or so and when I *decided*that its time to read this book, I start to carry it around with me (without actually started reading). So, when I FINALLY get into reading that book, its usually half a year after I purchased the book and it's kinda old and highly likely that there are a few folded pages. That's the reason why I refused to step into Borders lately, for the fear that I might succumb to Jodi Picoult's newest book,House Rules when I have at least 7 new books on my shelf, waiting to be read. =.="
