Hello! I know you heard quite about the awesome Intel Ultrabook already…
But I just wanted to add a little bit more on my experience of using it. Considering, I believe I mentioned how different it was for me since I usually use my desktop or iPad for all things computer related ..and this was both of them in one ♥ !


But yes, as you can see it’s ability for it to switch between a tablet and a laptop makes it easy for it to use it in different settings. Plus the fact that it’s really light-weight makes it even more convenient for it to be taken to Uni and alike. But okay, I lie. I didn’t use it for anything study related, but rather just watched TV shows and movies on it in bed hehe. And thankfully the battery life lasts for ages (approx 3 movies worth) unplugged so it’s perfect for lying in bed.

Anyway, I actually love using the touch screen whilst actually typing at the same time.
I mean, the keyboard has an excellent mouse ball touch option but it’s so awesome being able to type …and then using the touch screen to scroll down or click a new tab instead of having to use the mouse to do all that work.

But yes, I did have quite a bit of fun with this Ultrabook and would definitely love it again ;)
Would you use it in it’s laptop mode? Or tablet mode?
Hello dear friends!! How has everyone been faring for the past few weeks?
I’ve actually been quite busy for the past week or so with University classes and having a social life. But it’s been good! It’s good being able to get out of the house and trying out new things with some pretty awesome friends ♥

But despite being incredibly busy, I managed to take a few photos of these amazing lenses that mukuChu sent just before I went out for dinner. These lenses are a simple brown but the colour is so much softer and lighter than others! You can also see that they’ve got some sort of swirly effect to them – making them ..less blocky than some other ones I’ve had. ♥
Review: Cafe Mimi Macchiato Brown
Buy them over here ♥
Colour: ♥♥♥♥♥ – I really like this brown! It’s so .. different? And it’s still quite noticeable!
Design: ♥♥♥♥♡ – As you can see, they’ve got a swirly effect that creates a nice blend *_*
Comfort: ♥♥♥♥♡ – I wore them for about 6 hours and they felt perfectly fine!! (read belowww)
Enlargement: ♥♥♥♥♥ – Well. These are 15.0 and they are definitely quite enlarging!!!
Overall: ♥♥♥♥♡ – I actually think these are quite nice if you’re after all these qualities *___* !!
Okay! So for those who have me on twitter, would’ve seen this. But the one problem I did have with these lenses were that they were realllllly soft. And whilst that’s an awesome thing, it made it much harder to put in my eye than usual :/ I’m not sure if that was just me ..but yeah. Otherwise though, I actually think these lenses are perfect for a dolly eye look!

Actually, if you don’t mind the 15.0mm, you could totally wear these out for a natural look too !
(Also here’s a huge bonus point. I really like the name of these lenses haha!!)
What colour would you want your eyes to be?

Hello wonderful people! Today, I have something pretty exciting to share and review with you!
As some of you may have seen from my tweets / instagram, I’ve had the amazing opportunity to play with an Intel Ultrabook Convertible for the past week :) I was incredibly excited to be able to try this out as I’ve never had anything like it. For reference, I normally blog using my desktop but frequently use my laptop, iPad and iPhone to access social media.

This Intel Ultrabook Convertible is pretty much what has been taking up my time this entire week hehe.
I don’t have Windows 8 on any of my actual products so it was fun to play around with a new system!! Plus, having an Intel Core i5 and HD graphics made it an awesome time consuming product to review hehe.

Now, the super amazing thing about this Ultrabook is that ..it’s a laptop and a tablet in one.
I’ve actually always liked the thought of this concept! Sometimes you need to use the touch screen for games or drawing (stylus!), but other times ..you really just want to use a physical keyboard for typing ease!! *_*
But yes, as you can see, using this Ultrabook instead of my desktop was definitely an experience. The ability to just carry this around with you anywhere was great. In fact, I’m probably going to continue typing this blog post ..in bed!! Which is actually pretty awesome, since I’m normally sitting at my desk typing these blog posts (usually at 3am) ..so being able to type at ease in bed is really useful. (I’m not a fan of typing long posts with touch screen ..so yay for keyboard!)


It’s actually really light too so it made holding it in bed much easier (compared to using my laptop at least)
I also decided to let my mum and brother both give it a go to see what they did with it. My brother immediately put it in its portrait tablet mode to start reading his lectures (and later forums haha) whilst my mum used it in its laptop mode (to stand) to watch stuff on youtube while she cooked dinner haha. Definitely was good versatility!

I actually really enjoyed using this Ultrabook ..and with it’s 7 second start up, it’s easy to use anywhere!
What’s your opinion on the Ultrabook?
Where and when would you use it? Do you like that it’s both a tablet and a laptop?
Hello everyone!! I apologize for my sudden absence from social media :(
University has just started again so I’m trying to get back in to this whole groove again!
Anyway, about a month ago, I had the opportunity to meet the man behind Asian Impressions and organise a quick photoshoot whilst he was in Melbourne. Now, I’ve never done any sort of fashion photoshoot before (all my photos are taken by Vu or myself :/) so I was …very nervous! So, this was definitely out of my comfort zone. But, I knew that I would regret it if I turned down the offer ..so I decided to go for it despite all of my uncertainties and doubts *_* !

Whilst I’m sure that I could’ve been a much better model, I’m quite happy with how some of the photos turned out! There are a lot more than the ones posted here, but they’re not all edited and I feel like my own edits wouldn’t live up to these!!
But yes, apart from confirming that I’m a pretty socially awkward penguin, I learnt that it’s good to take a hold of opportunities when you can. Sometimes you only get one chance to do something, so don’t hold back! There’s nothing wrong with being afraid of the unknown, but we shouldn’t let our fear dictate and restrict the way we want to lives.
What’s out of your comfort zone?
It’s the day before the first day of the Lunar New Year, so here’s an early post to wish you all!!
I hope that this upcoming new year brings you and your family good health, prosperity and luck! May the year of the Snake be a kind one to all of us, bringing us lots of success and happiness!! <゜)))彡
★◦ 新年快乐 ◦★

And as per tradition, I dressed up again! (See 2011, 2012) I decided to wear the same shirt as last year as it’s still much better than all the others I own!! Also, as I always believe in putting 100% when you’re taking some nice photos, I decided to wear my new contacts given to me kindly by mukuChu! Along with some CNY photos, I’ll be reviewing them in this post!
(Isn’t that cute little lantern a nice touch to this whole Chinese New Year post hehe)
Review: Geo Cafe Mimi Waffle Grey

Buy them over here ♥
Colour: ♥♥♥♡♡ – They’re grey but there’s a bit of brown in them which I like! But the colour doesn’t show up that well.
Design: ♥♥♥♡♡ - It’s 2 toned which is cool! And that black ring is humongous ..but quite normal?
Comfort: ♥♥♥♥♡ – Felt perfectly fine after a couple of blinks of adjustment!
Enlargement: ♥♥♥♥♥ – They’re 15.0 ..and those black rings are gigantically huge. So yes.
Overall: ♥♥♥♥♡ - They’re actually quite pretty but the colour is really dark … :(
I think these lenses are fantastic but they’re actually quite noticeably big ..especially with that really fat black ring around it. I would definitely wear this out when I want to be more dolly and kira kira ..but definitely not as an everyday look!

It was incredibly hot on this day so wearing this high collar top with all that make up nearly made me melt in to a puddle of my own sweat. Thank goodness for the existence of air-conditioners because I seriously would not be able to survive if it was not for that!! Haha. But anyway, yes. These are probably my new lenses for when I want to do some cutesy looks without having much colour in my eyes!! Definitely liking that this is now settled nicely in my collection of contact lenses :)

Anyway, I really do hope everyone has an excellent Lunar New Year filled with yummy food!
I’m not sure what plans I have on yet apart from attending a couple of festivals! I’ll be at the Japanese Festival at Docklands tomorrow (wearing normal clothes this time around hehe) so do say ‘Hello!’ if you happen to see me!!
Enlargement vs Colour?
Despite what I used to say, I definitely pick colour!! The days of wanting Alien eyes are over!!! Haha
