Chinese New Year!!!
Damn I just got home....just got my hair done. Its like 9.33pm already and I just got home. I'm friggin exhausted right now. I only slept for like 2 hours last night. Maybe less I think. I went to sleep at 5am then woke up around 7.50am. I don't know what's gotten into my body. I was sitting in the saloon just now wanting to faint cos its so damn stuffy in there and my eyes felt like they were gonna pop out.

But its all worth it. Gotta look good for Chinese New Year hehe. Having open house, so I'm guessing that its gonna be as hectic as last year. First day is always the worst. Everyone running around the house screaming for drinks and food. Loads of people waiting outside the gate. If you're not used to seeing that, it can seem pretty scary haha. I personally find it frustrating cos my parents are gonna be all grumpy cos of the stress of it all. I will be left to following orders and entertaining all the guests when needed.

But doesn't it get annoying though when you bump into those so-called 'uncles' and 'aunties' who have seen you like just a few months ago, then suddenly say things like: "Wah! So big already ah...Big girl already ah.." or "Why you so tall now? Last time saw you, still very small leh" and the most aggrivating one...(usually asked by the nosey ones) "So how's your results ah? Do you think you'll pass? Where you planning to go to school?....."<------trust me this one will NEVER end. It will feel like forever.

Why the hell would they need to ask things like that?? Annoys the crap outta me sometimes. Seriously....its like a snakepit among my family and relatives. Everyone fighting for territory, trying to sabotage one another with gossips and such. It gets very annoying especially cos they always make me their main target. So what if I didn't get into Maktab Sains? So what if I'm not 'their type' of person? Their kids wanna stay at home and bury their faces in their books, its their own problem. I don't like staying at home and I hate keeping my face in between my books all the time.

Atleast I'm street smart and book smart. Its all in the balance. :) Oh well, I was born into this family so I guess I'm gonna have to just suck it up and stop being a baby. Like I always do.

I really hope this year's Chinese New Year will be a good one though. I haven't really bought all my clothes yet, but I'll buy them soon. All I need right now is a good manicure. Thinking of getting gel extensions. My mom knows this really good manicurist who does home service. Problem is, how am I supposed to take it off? I googled it and it said to soak it in acetone. Well there's two types. The normal nail polish remover which is acetone mixed with some other chemicals and the pure acetone one, which is used to remove gail extensions.

My mom said she did it before and she said that it took her ages to look for someone who could actually take it off for her cos she tried looking for the same manicurist again, but she was always busy with other clients. My mom went all over to search for a nail parlour which provides this service, but none of them, not even Nail Artz had the remover thingy. I mean....its kinda ridiculous....NAIL ARTZ....name says it all, but service? Nyeh...not really good.

They handled my nails very roughly. For those who have done manicures before, you should know that there's always the part where they use this rough thing and sort of polish your nails so they look nice and shiny right? She used it and fucking cut my cuticle. It was quite deep, very very painful also. It was actually bleeding and she didn't even apologize. She just said that my cuticles were very dry and I needed treatment. I think it was like $60 or something. Bitchy....never going back there ever. Rather go to my mom's. Gentler handling....

They don't even provide full nail service there. Nail arts now consist of acrylic or gel extension. They should have that. I would pay alot for that cos gel extensions are popular in Singapore and Japan and Taiwan as well....all the Japanese-influenced countries. They look really good too. Unfortunately all they do is draw on your nails and stick stones on them which cost a fortune. I give props to them though cos they can use their creativity to create a new design for you, but still....more training needed I guess.

Just a mild reminder, whoever who owns Nail Artz or is associated with them, please excuse the insults. Not defamation...Its ranting. I need to rant! Haha Anyways...I think I'm gonna get my nails done on Thursday and I shall go to bed now cos I'm sleepy as hell. So nights peoples!!! Ciao bello
