If i ever feel better

I have been distracted lately, a few things on my mind that i cant seem to shake it off. I have another 6 weeks until i am done with uni and oh boy, i cant wait!!!! which also means i have alot to finish up this coming 6 weeks that i cant afford to get distracted. i know i can pull through but i hate the stupid nagging feeling. ...maybe i am just too involved with my emotions, i should take a chill pill and switch off.

A friend re-introduced me to Phoenix and i have been listening to them non-stop. It funny, my girlfriends LOVE Phoenix when we were growing up and i just...coudnt give a shit about them. The song above pretty much summarises how i feel.

I am currently working on making blushingkay into something more than just a blog! super exciting times are coming to this blog!!

Super Green Detox Juice

I started green juicing early last year when i wanted to my health and fitness in check. Like most of you, green is not my favourite colour. It was struggle for me and honestly it is still a struggle for me. I started with a ratio of 70% fruits and 30% vegetables and slowly, like one year later slow, i am transitioning into 70% vegetables and 30% fruits. I am going through what i think is a quarter life crisis. For the past few weeks, my body has been doing some grieving - lack of appettie and sleep disturbances. I was a convenient eater, whatever was easy and accessible, i had it. I started breaking out and feeling sluggish, enough was enough! I had to take care of my body. So... i researched on detoxing juices and found this...

Super Green Detox Juice

1. Handful of spinach
2. Handful of kale
3. Handful of corriander
4. Small cucumber
5. Celery sticks x 3
6. Green apple x 1
7. Squeeze of lemon
8. 1 1/2 cup of water

Blend and enjoy! I get about 2 and 1/2 cups from all this ratio and i drink it throughout the day. I would have this first thing in the morning on empty stomach, like wake up, prepare the veggies/fruits, blend, brush my teeth and drink. i drank this for 3 days straight and felt so much better. My face started to clear up and my tummy became flat, which is always a plus. :)

Can someone buy me a blendtec/vitamix blender for my birthday? Its in 3 weeks :D

Step out and bare it! Revlon Colourstay Nail Enamel in Bare Bones (Review)

I am dark nails colour kind of girl. For the longest time, i was only wearing shades of (dark) purple, blue and black. The brightest nail colour i own is...coral pink from The FaceShop. My love for coloured nails started when i started working at Zalora. I am not a girly girl but being around girls 14hrs/5 days a week, you just cant help it. we talk nails, hair, make up and boys. My closest colleague, Azian is a total opposite of me. i love my colours, she LOVES her nudes. I didnt know there are different shades of egg shells/nude/neutral colours until i met her. 

It was recently, i couldnt decide what colour to paint my nails, i was bored of my dark colours and thought okay, lets get out from your safe colours and go nude! I started by going brown (Covergirl - 220). I thought i was going to hate it cause while i painted my nail i was thinking urgh! brown! so ugly! The colour grew on me and i started liking it.

A few days back my housemate needed to go to Priceline to get nail polish to match her dress for a wedding. Priceline? new nail colour? YES! i bought two colours - one safe colour and Revlon Colourstay Nail Enamel in Bare Bones. Definitely a new colour for me and i am loving it!!! My fingers look longer, somehow more elegant and more chic. I totally get why Azian loves her nudes. 

Its been on my nails for almost 3 days without a chip, which is a GREAT achievement for me. I wear the Salley Hansen Diamond Base and Top Coat which helps with the chipping and gives a glossy shine.

Loving my nails, i usually wear change my nails weekly but i think i might have this on for longer.

My list

my sweet perky housemate Chelsea is a seasoned traveller. She has covered most of Asia (Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore and few more...), major european cities and recently...she just booked a ticket to volunteer in SOUTH AFRICA. Best of all, she is only 18! She did most of her traveling right after school when she was 17.

when she was casually mentioning where she has been... my mouth was on the floor and my face was green with envy. i cant wait to start earning money and travel every month! 2012 was my most travelled year where i went to so many places and i honestly felt happy, sure i was broke most of the time, but i was broke happy. 2014/2015 - Korea, Cambodia, India and Hong Kong are my top places i want to go. i want to travel alone and just get lost in a city. it will happen!

boo hoo

I had a shit ass weekend that ended up in tears. I was working on an essay for a few days, i did a noob ass move by not saving it and of course...my word document crashed. !!@@##$%^&*^#$$ i calmed down after freaking out and cursed in every language i know. i managed recover the file and i kept saving it every 10 minutes only to discover that you cant save a recovered file because it is corrupted!!!!

I had to rewrite everything and it was shit. i smashed it as much as i could in two hours and was drained by end of the day and i still had alot to do which resulted me into tears...  SB had to calm me down and make me snap out of it. All i needed was a good shower and a clean room. My room was messy and it was one of the reasons why i was stressed. I gave my room a quick clean up and i felt instantly better.

On an unrelated note, i am on a mission to watch IMBD top 250 movies. I am going to watch Pulp Fiction before i go to bed and when i get a good day off i am going to watch Fight Club. i am so happy that i have these little rewards for myself because its going to be a few long weeks.
