We love Horror Movies, perhaps not

Dear all, I knew I have been MIA recently. Why? I have just started my new day job after a good few months of rest at home, lazing around watching tv eating potato chips. My office is kinda far home, in avg I need a good 1hr 20min per trip, so is like 3hr life wasted daily for traveling. I hate the part of squeezing like a sandwich in train, but I understand its part of life living in a buzz city vibe like Singapore. Even if I own a car, the cycle will repeat with myself cursing in the traffic jams. Peak hours aren't friendly and hard to mess with.

Anyway back to my post, Horror movies? My man and I enjoy watching movies a lot, it made up a great part of our usual dates. I knew some people will say its boring, but how many times will a couple curdles over a TV show out of the movie dates?

Horror movies are a good choice of movie for dates, especially for the men who will have an advantage. Trilling and horror are really not my cup of tea, I usually don't watch such movies alone or with my friends. I will spent most of the movie time hiding my head to the person next to me leaving only 1 eye out. I find it quite embarrassing infront of my friends, but I have completely no issue with my man, he understands me very well so we always curdle throughout the movie with me occasionally screaming and stunning him off.


We caught 'Sinister 2' last night. It's movie about Boogie man. There are a lot of sayings about 'Boogie man', but generally it's a kind of devil who punishes bad kids and making these kids to do something bad/ scary, or some says they actually fed on these kids. Whatsoever, nothing good.

So for Sinister 2, the story line is very familiar to the first one, except that the first one everyone died and the later one left 3 living ones, but based on the open ending (like all horror movies do) they will all still be dead later. 

You can find a good write-up of the storyline here by wiki. 

This movies has alot of creatures jumping out suddenly and you can hear everyone screaming, really not a choice for weak hearts and kids. 

I will give this movie a 3/5 popcorn. 
The storyline is very much the same as the first one, so it's not hard to anticipate what's next, but you will still get it from the sudden loud musics and appearance of the boogie man. 
You know some of the horror movies are just so hard to understand, too much of the focus is put to scare people off that the storyline is totally neglected and ended up we viewers have no idea what the hell is going on. But for 'Sinister 2', the storyline is not hard to follow and you will still get the frights along the way. 

Yea, that's my thought for the movies. Hope you will enjoy your movie dates as much as I do!

xoxo,

New Hairstyle New Start


It was an impromptu haircut, a no warning hairstyle.
I was rather emotional recently, so decided to get a haircut to change my luck or something. For a recap of how I looked like previously:
I will say I chopped off quite a fair bit of hair. I am still getting used to short hair, I have the habit of putting my hair to one side of my shoulder but now it feels weird to have 'no hair' to do this.

As usual I went to my stylist, Jeffrey from Hair Alley, I always feel safe to have him take care of my head. To be frank, I didn't expect to cut it short, I think adrenaline overridden me and it just happened, lucky it turns out good if not I will go bang the wall and start pulling my scalp off again.

I requested a 'see through fringe/bangs'. It's actually a popular way to cut the bangs in Korea, as the name tells, you can 'see through' the bangs, exposing a bit of the forehead. The bangs is thin and wispy, and helps to soften the facial features for a more girly and sweet look. However, what I like best about this kinda fringe is that it has the flexibility to leave it as bangs or side fringe. Because only the center fringe is short, you can easily hide it and wipe it to the side for a more 'grown up' look.

I have to admit my fringe looks a bit odd now, because I have been having side parting for so long that my bangs keep flying back to the side. It will takes a while to adapt, I hope....

Ok, please allows me to photobomb now!

The next hairstyle?

Hello dearies, have been MIA for a while because mood has been rather dull recently, thus no inspiration for new entry.

Well, this is not the way to waste life, so I am forcing myself to wake up, focus more on the daily activities I can do rather than depressing and pitying at myself.

I am thinking to change my hairstyle, to welcome a better start. No need to expect a drastic change because I am not very advantageous on hairstyle now. LOLx

Actually I have tried quite a lot of different hairstyles compared to other girls. Some of the ladies have the same hairstyle for the longest time because it looks nice and easy to maintain, so why bother to change and risk looking not suitable. I am not saying they are boring, they are absolutely right because the pain is really unbearable when you have gotten yourself a hairstyle that looks so wrong and bad. It's real depressing! I have a couple of such experiences, and I almost cried my lungs out and teared my scalp.

Anyway I have tried various hairstyles, nice or ugly, younger or older, short or long.

I seldom keep super long hair, I think my record is this.
Early this year
When I was like 21/22?

My first boy cut
Actually I like this hairstyle a lot, but the maintenance is quite high, I cannot go out without styling it.
When I was 21?

Japanese super layered head
When I was about 20?
During Poly...

First korean perm in Korea
About 23

Trying to be a rock star
21 I think....

Bangs has always been one of my favourite...

Side fringe too!
This is 25
This was 24.... 
This is recent

I am not very into colours, I am usually in copper and red.

I did beached my hair once when I was about 22... Golden highlight. My hair was like grass after that...
This was New Year this year. I super love this!

Talking about bad hairstyle?
This will be the top:

Ok fat, I look fatter here I know. This was me just out from a hair cut and dye, my first time trying a new salon place at Hougang. Firstly, this hairstyle was opening announcing to the whole world that I got round face. Secondly, I told the stylish I wan ash colour and turned out close to black. That was my first and last time at that salon. It's important to find the stylish who I can leave my head to him/her safety.

My next hairstyle to be reveal soon...
Already made the appointment for tomorrow, hope a new hairstyle can bring me better mood, better luck and better SG50 holiday!
