a Beauty-filled day..

It actually was... :)

I went to meet Tammy Tan to fit the dress I had made for S's wedding - after which - I went to attend Sophie's Beauty and Minerals day!

Beauty & Vanity - they go hand in hand I think... :)

I was actually late for the 2 events. But first things first. The dress I had made turned out so nice! I loved it! There were only minor adjustments and everything else was close to perfect! One complaint though - it seemed as if my front bumpers shrinked! Dang it! But Tammy made suggestions, thanks Tammy!! :) She also had me try on this wrap dress - I first thought that it might not fit me because of the size, but when I wore it! My gosh - it was perfect! I loved it sooooooo much! Even my Panget said it looked great! Thanks Tammy!! I'm such a big fan of hers! She's such a sweetheart!! Arns, if you happen to see this - you're one lucky guy!!

My friend Annie was also there, not to mention my Panget. You see, he's the ever curious - he wanted to see what the dress looked like - and when asked for an opinion - he said 'What do I know?! I'm a guy!?' Tsk... tsk... But good thing he liked it! After the fitting - we headed to Il Pirata for lunch - the food was just alright - I wasn't as impressed - I loved it the first time I tried it. But nevertheless, lunch was great - I enjoyed every minute of it!!

After lunch - I headed to Makati - I had errands to do first and reached Sophie's Beauty and Minerals Day a little after 4 in the afternoon! It was first time to meet Sophie - and only my second EB ever!! Sophie was AMAZING - watching her do make-overs! Wow - can I just say that this girls got talent? I mean T-A-L-E-N-T! I swear she's my Mineral Make-Up guru! It's like watching an artist in action - with just a few strokes - voila! The make-up looks fresh, natural and perfect!! I was very very very impressed!!

When I sat down - the first thing that I noticed was the pots and pots of Mineral Make-Up! The stash was something every girl would die for! Imagine stacks and stacks of Mineral Make-Up pots! It was heaven! I envied Sophie and Tin! Gosh- there were so many! I was literally bowled over with their stash. It was literally a stas!! Here are some pictures:


Look at that stash!!

Learning Mandarin, what method is best?

I studied in a sort of Chinese school for 13 years. So that "sort of' means, I SHOULD know how to speak basic Mandarin right? NOT QUITE!! I studied in a Chinese school where we only get less than an hour of Chinese class daily.  When you think about it, well - one hour a day, should be okay - but the problem is, at that time - it was pure memorization.  The books that we used, were those traditional books that I honestly have no idea what is written in them.  I see Chinese characters and they're just that - Chinese characters without meaning, nothing.  It was not practical if you ask me.  The words we were taught were not used in everyday conversation It was only during my 3rd or 4th year of high school that I realized how important knowing how to speak Chinese was.  It was during a trip to the Chinese border from Hong Kong that while I was going around the mall, I was having a hard time communicating with people who looked like me.  I wa...
