school

i have neglected this blog for way too long but i've been busy with school orientations.

my perception of what seoul national university is (and how the students there behave) was really not in sync with reality.

the truth is, despite their super intelligence, the people here are all fun-seeking and genuine people.

to make this post short. basically, i love my university and i cant wait for it to start.

on a more relatable note, im trying to persuade my dad to get me an oven. fingers crossed.

duty-free haul!

here are three reasons why i love to travel.
1. duty-free shops
2. personal tv in the plane with most recent films
3. plane food (from thai airlines)

there. i said it. i love duty-free shops. and with around 100 dollars to spend inside the duty-free shops, i decided to splurge a little and give myself some retail therapy (after all, i am extremely sad that i'm parting with my mom and my brother for three months...) and my god did i buy the most extraordinary items...

a satisfying meal in korea

cold winter afternoon in seoul!
i'm in seoul!!! came here yesterday (thus went missing in action for this blog) but i've decided to be diligent with blogging even here. it's definitely cold in here but there's tons more of korean cosmetic products and korean food so im excited for my journey here :)

how to: apply nail polish that lasts

For Audrey, a Tiffany Blue polish from China Glaze
so here's an advice post i'd like to share that i recently found out through personal experience. the picture above is my perfectly intact nail polish that i painted four days ago. i thought it's amazing how it didn't chip after so long so here i am ready to share my manicure tips!

accessory haul

even though i am a makeup addict, i secretly have an intense, powerful affair with accessories (particularly rings or anything with gems). back in january when i was shopping downtown with my friends, i was fortunate enough to find a little shop that sold jewelries that had my taste. so this time i went back and got a couple more things.
