Pink & purple ombré nails

Pink & purple ombré nails anybody?
Let me teach you the easiest way to achieve these:

Step 1: Apply a light base colour to your nails (i choose baby pink) that will contrast nicely with the darker colour (I choose purple) which you will use for the nail tips or nail ends (whichever you wish the gradient to start from, I did purple to pink gradient). Wait for it to dry (nothing too difficult yet? It gets easier)

Step 2: Grab a makeup sponge or a cloth that's porous, you need a sponge or cloth that's porous so you can create the sponge effect (doesn't work with cotton bud/wool/tip). I used cloth. Next pour small amount of the purple polish onto the and dip the corner of the sponge into the polish. Now dab the sponge onto the tip on the nails, and continue dabbing down to a about a third of the nail, making sure the majority of the polish is on the tip. You want to create a gradient look where the dark eventually fades out toward the bottom of the nail.

Step 3 - Apply a colour that's inbetween the contrasting colours and dab where the two colours meet. This will help all the colours to blend into each other. For this look you can use a dark pink. I left this out and blended both nail colours.

Step 4 - You can finish off by applying a layer of glitter polish over the top and use this to set my gems and fimo clay stars/flowers. I omitted this. Lastly i applied a thick coat of clear polish over the top to seal everything in. Finally, clean up the edges with a cotton bud and varnish remover.

It really is that easy! I was quite pleased as to how it turned out, considering i have never done this nail effect before. I'm looking forward to doing this again in more colours!

Disclaimer: Sorry for the unprofessional picture. It honestly look better than the picture, I swear!

I knew that we’d become one right away
Oh, right away

I saw the life inside your eyes

So shine bright, tonight you and I
We’re beautiful like diamonds in the sky
Eye to eye, so alive
We’re beautiful like diamonds in the sky

Should I start a beauty blog?

I was asked to try it out. Maybe I should. Lets wait and see

Battle Scars lyrics by Lupe Fiasco ft Guy Sebastian

The wound heals but it never does
That’s cause you’re at war with love
You're at war with love, yeah

These battle scars, don’t look like they’re fading
Don’t look like they’re ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle

Never let a wound ruin me
But I feel like ruin's wooing me
Arrow holes that never close from cupid on a shooting spree
Feeling stupid cause I know it ain't no you and me
But when you're trying to beat the odds up
Been trying to keep your nods up and you know that you should know
And let her go but the fear of the unknown
Holding another lover strong sends you back into the zone
With no Tom Hanks to bring you home
A lover not a fighter on the frontline with a poem
Trying to write yourself a rifle
Maybe sharpen up a song
To fight the tanks and drones of you being alone

I wish I never looked, I wish I never touched
I wish that I could stop loving you so much
Cause I’m the only one that's trying to keep us together
When all of the signs say that I should forget her
I wish you weren’t the best, the best I ever had
I wish that the good outweighed the bad
Cause it’ll never be over, until you tell me it's over

These battle scars, don’t look like they’re fading
Don’t look like they’re ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle

(And just leave then)
You shouldn't have but you said it
(And I hope you never come back)
It shouldn't have happened but you let it
Now you're down on the ground screaming medic
The only thing that comes is the post-traumatic stresses
Shields, body armors and vests
Don't properly work, that's why you're in a locker full of hurt
The enemy within and all the fires from your friends
The best medicine is to probably just let her win

I wish I couldn't feel, I wish I couldn't love
I wish that I could stop cause it hurts so much
And I’m the only one that's trying to keep us together
When all of the signs say that I should forget her
I wish you weren’t the best, the best I ever had
I wish that the good outweighed the bad
Cause it’ll never be over, until you tell me it's over

These battle scars, don’t look like they’re fading
Don’t look like they’re ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle

I wish I couldn't feel, I wish I couldn't love
I wish that I could stop cause it hurts so much
And I’m the only one that's trying to keep us together
When all of the signs say that I should forget her
I wish you weren’t the best, the best I ever had
I wish that the good outweighed the bad
Cause it’ll never be over, until you tell me it's over

Cause you've set me on fire
I’ve never felt so alive, yeah

Hoping wounds heal, but it never does
That's because you're at war with love

And I’m at the point of breaking
And it’s impossible to shake it

See, you hoped the wound heals, but it never does
That's cause you're at war with love
Hope it heals, but it never does
That's cause you're at war with love!

These battle scars, don’t look like they’re fading
Don’t look like they’re ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle


These battle scars, don’t look like they’re fading
Don’t look like they’re ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle

Runaway brides - just a sign of cold feet, or immaturity??

 Read the thought provoking, heart racking article on runaway brides part 1 & 2

Buying a hdb when we start our adulthood and wait a good 3-4 years for its completion is a huge pressure to many young couples - or just brides.

Pressure; Is it really from friends, family and hdb ?

I beg to differ.

Been dating for 6 years. Planned and applied for a small hdb unit 3 years ago and we are about to collect my keys in a month of so. I don't have any cold feet now and i don't even see it coming. I just worry about bills (that we need to single handedly manage without any parents support all the way from rom to wedding to Reno to honeymoon) and i am pretty much excited about my next phase of life as a married woman in my own new house starting my small little family.

To me it's simple.

1)You fall in true love, 2) you find your life partner 3) both discuss and plan future 4) always work things during problems out unless its trust and loyalty issues 5) make important decisions - house, marriage

I just think the words "cold feet" are the lamest excuse for immature brats who rather be single and not tied down.


Don't kill me, it's just my point of view.

I ultimately love peace! :P

Around the world for anyone?

Interested in a round the world trip but think its impossible?

Think again.

Let me give you a quick guide on how easy it takes one to do this, as well as answer all your dying questions:

1. Time

You want to see the world but with 14 days annual leave in a year, you ask me how is it ever going to be possible?

Simple. Break your round the world trip in parts. You don't need to see the world at one go, you won't enjoy much of it anyway.

My traveling tip for those who are tight on time, will be to travel by region. Start with Asia (because I'm from Singapore, do so accordingly to wherever you stay) and move around year by year. Saves you money this way too!

2. Modes of transportation

Nowadays we are able to travel round the world through anyway we dream of - either sea, air or land with the help of the advancement in technologies!

Traveling in budget has been the easiest and quickest ticket out from ones home land for their overseas experience, at least for countries nearby. I recommend Scoot (http://www.flyscoot.com/index.php/en/) as well as Air Asia (https://airasia.com/) for Asian countries.

For those willing to travel further (and pay more) you can try any of the 28 airlines from star alliances (http://m.staralliance.com/portal/home.do?l=en_US). You would be surprised how far you can go.

For those ego prefer sailing around the world, there are many well know cruise companies like star cruises (http://m.starcruises.com/en/home.aspx) and Royal Caribbean cruises (http://www.royalcaribbean.com/findacruise/ports/group/home.do?portCode=SIN) that can help you as well.

3. Money

It's definitely gonna be costly for a round the world trip. The key is to plan and save in advance. Booking during promotional periods can save alot.

Else, entering a contest to win a trip could also solve the problem (nothing wrong getting Lady Luck to help right?)

Or, you could also try these methods - http://www.vergemagazine.com/articles/budget-traveller/15-ways-to-travel-for-free-or-at-least-cheap.html

4. Reason

Everyone needs a reason to travel. Why don't you make it a "just because" excuse rather than something fancy yet easily forgotten "bucket list"

So go ahead, take a break and go round the world like you should. Need more help? Read more at : http://www.lonelyplanet.com/europe/travel-tips-and-articles/76922
