What goes around comes around.

There will always be that milestone in your life where you start collecting a particular item that fancies you. A more detailed example that I would actually like you guys to follow... is my mum's insane obsession with quality perfume. Yesterday, she came home with five new babies (metaphorical sense - don't take me too literally haha)! Three being: Prada, Gucci and Dior. LOVELOVE♥ Well you can safely say, what's hers is mine ;)

- or this may be just an excuse for me to take photos of it muahaha -







Their packaging never ever fails!

And as for my insane obsession? Well let's bring YSL into this :P Lipsticks. This is my 3rd Rouge Volupte lipstick hehe! By far my favourite collection in terms of packaging and quality of the lipstick... the only problem I have with it is it's longevity! Other than that - it's perfectttt!

Pros
  • Glides on really well
  • Packaging (nothing can go wrong with a YSL product)
  • Full coverage - very pigmented
Cons
  • Longetivity - 2-3 hours max
  • Pricey

I actually took these two photos of this bird(I do not recognise the species rofl) when a black out occurred today. It must have lasted for about a little more than an hour or so? But somehow, I couldn't find ANYTHING to do. I sat there watching Modern Family on my laptop with it's battery running low. When it was empty, I read a magazine.... then I read the first page of a book and gave up. I didn't realise how much I relied on electricity!





Right now, I feel like this bird. I'm trying to find balance in my life and it hasn't been too much of an easy road for me. You know, I thought that after HSC, every thing would be smooth and straightforward. Between uni(soon to start), the lover, my friends and family... It's way too overwhelming sometimes! I know I will regret saying this in about three weeks time, but I wished university started now. I just want to be surrounded by a fresh and new atmosphere. My life is deprived of structure lately. I can't believe I am saying this but... I sort of miss high school :/
