overplucked eyebrows to draw them in or worse eyebrow tattoo, too colorful eyeshadows, foundation lines around the jaw line, obvious wrong shade of foundation (too white or too tan), orange fake tanned skin, clumpy mascara, runny eyeliners << this one I think I'm guilty of because my eyeliners kinda always runny after a few hours :(

neutral never goes wrong. but I really like blue eyeshadow somehow^^

(I ♥ wayfarer! I don't really like Aviator. hahaa. this wayfarer that I got is the one that I could fold)

1. my all-time favourite band is the ARCTIC MONKEYS. :)

 incase you guys don't know~ the frontman of the band, Alex Turner is the current BF of Alexa Chung!

2. my Honey is Thai. 
we met in China & have been together since highschool. we always called each other 'Honey' since the first time we ever met! well actually I called him "that guy" or "hey you" for the first two days, but after I lost the bet that he set up (excuses to take me out) I had to call him Honey from then on & so does he. :)

read here about more detail of how we met & the bet xD. link.

there were times where we had to separate for about a year because we have to move back to our country for a while. it was a LDR & this is Hney's painting that describes the situation & his feelings~ I absolutely ♥ it!!

3. I think cats and kittens are the cutest pet ever! 
I'm a cat lover. I don't like dogs caz I personally think the are scary! 
when I see dogs within 1m's from me, I would probably run for my life. xD

5. I wear wigs. (well, when i'm not lazy). 
the short bob style is my fav style of wig~ although I like the hairstyle & I got many compliments on it, I'm too scared to cut my hair that short :(.. maybe someday I will when I have the guts for it!

6. I ♥ Travelling. 
that's my passion besides dancing. I love exploring new places, seeing different cultures, learning history, trying different food all over the world, basically travel & travel! I didn't get the chance to explore to Europe, US, & lots of different places yet. but I'll deff try to travel far in the future. I'd like to see Machu Picchu, Eiffel Tower, Venice Town, NY City, & esp LONDON!
