Tesselaar Tulip Festival 2014 - Tulip Fantasy

Hello :D I know I have been MIA for almost a year already.. so sorry that i abandoned this little space cuz I went on mobile blogging :3 anyways I was requested by Twinnie to come back to this space >_< i miss here.. cut the crap, i was thinking to record down my life in Melbourne, but my life is actually pretty boring so.. here's some fun one.

I went to Tulip Festival yesterday (4th of Oct) with Sunshine. I dragged him so hard only he willing to leave the city and get to the suburb with me. From Melbourne city to Lilydale, you've to take an hour train to reach there, and get on the $3 per person shuttle bus (for weekends only, weekdays have to take Route 663 bus to Tesselaar Tulip Festival). BUT because of there were some terrorist related crimes in Melbourne recently so some train stations closed, the direct link from Melbourne city to Lilydale is closed. -__-

So we have to take one train stop down, to Parliament station, and hop on the bus replacement service to Camberwell train station (which is like 30 mins away), and get on train to Lilydale station. From Camberwell to Lilydale station was around another 25-30 minutes (it stopped at every stop, should've took the express & transfer to Lilydale >_<). After reaching Lilydale, have to get on to bus and get to Tesselaar which is like another 15 mins. The whole trip took around an hour + to reach the Tulip Festival but the scenery made efforts paid.

Crapped enough, let the photos do the talking!


Can you imagine yourself standing in the middle of Tulip sea?
This festival lasted for a month, it started since Sept 11th till Oct 7th. I am the lucky one that being able to visit this once a year event before it ends //bliss//



But because it is reaching the end of the festival already, these tulips are not that lively anymore.. you can see bald spots in the middle of fields because those kids actually step on them and the staffs said "we are going to kill them anyway, so its fine" WTF. I dont know how they actually going to do with all these pretty flowers lar. I eavesdropped that they said they use new soil every year and "we are going to kill them", I felt super wasted for these tulips :( their lifespan just a month?


Weather was a bliss too! 26 degrees and scorching sun YEASH! I feel spring, like finally.. after spring started for a month already. Sunshine said too hot he cant see lol and he wore his uncle pek spectacles because his new spec loosen already..


Tiramisu! Tiramisu to more tulips and ice cream please?
This Sunshine die die also dont want to take with me in the front cuz he said "too mainstream, exchange character.." wtf.

Lai, time to spam my own selfies :P



i likey this :3


The last photo was where we found hidden garden for the tourist to visit the types of Tulips. There are so many types of tulips that i cant even remember any of them! I just remember their names being weird, like what "Diamond" something. Hmm..interesting.

One of my main reason insist on going to this tulip farm is because tulip is my mom's favourite flower. She loves tulip so much and her wish is just to visit tulip farm in Netherlands. Is okay mii, come to Melbourne again and I will bring you there <3 div="">

Another reason was to fade my grief, I cant accept still I am so sorry. rest in peace, mizi.

I wish I could fulfill as many wishes as I can for my family.
And yet, please do whatever that makes you happy. Do not ever make yourself to something that you don't want to and end up unhappy. You have to live your life, with love and care. Bear in mind, sometimes selfish is good too. Don't over interpret whatever I've said, #YOLO but in a right way.


Let's end this post with my favorite photo of all.

Till then,

x.

国外求学生涯

上课星期我心血来潮一直诅咒自己要发烧,而且是高烧的那种。因为觉得自己最近缺乏关注,好像很多大小事都不清楚,就连我爸要出国了我也一概不知 这真的很过分很生气!
不知道是不是上天看到我这个疯婆子那么想体验第二次在寒冷的天气里发烧,我昨天睡午觉的时候一醒来,真的 发烧了,而且是高烧。本以为很普通 因为我得到比平常多一点的关注了然而烧会退,结果吃完晚餐后 (就算发烧,吃时一定还要的!)烧真的开始慢慢退了!半夜的时候几乎都不烧了。

今天一早起床,觉得精神不错~昨晚答应人家喝茶 我还有本事去洗澡等等的。喝完茶后,开始发冷,一回到家…尼玛 烧得更重了。现在我蹲在我电脑桌前 看着前面那家伙打游戏,觉得我的眼睛快烧掉之余 还有一股淡淡的哀伤。由于他生我的气 不打包给我 还骂了我一餐,然后回来的时候买了辛拉面和 M&M 给我。不知道是应该觉得至少他有心 还是有心害我。自己默默的煮碗面吃了后,现在更加辛苦了。

好想念妈妈 爸爸 弟弟 妹妹
在家里 我这个大姐就好像小妹一样。
我妹我弟都服侍我。
发烧了 喊两句说 “弟我饿啦~想吃煎蛋吔 *无辜眼神*”
我弟弟就会放下游戏 然后去煮蛋 T_T
我妹妹就会默默的拿水给我 默默的逼我喝
我爸妈 “要吃什么?”
我 “不知道,面线?(话说我生病只吃面线啦)呵呵 要辣椒酱哦”
爸 “死小孩 生病还吃辣椒?那你的面线啦 *内附辣椒*”
我 “……”

我爸是有点凶啦 但是他和我一样 刀子口 豆腐心 知道我没有辣椒吃不下 然后就会附送一煲凉茶 他说这样就不会上火了
我妈蛮关注我的意见呵呵 我要他陪我去逛街 下班后就算再累 他会嘴硬的说“那安娣还有开啦,要不要去哦你”

我爸妈很喜欢趁我熟睡的时候 (没有啦 就早上他们上班前我起不来的)偷偷进来我房间摸摸我的额头,“发烧了,咳” “乖 来 吃这个 *珍珠粉末* 喝水”
这些都是我睡觉的时候糊里糊涂发生的 但我很记得啦 因为起床后旁边就会有一壶水。
我爸从我小到大都喜欢帮我盖被 偷偷关掉我冷气 小时候身子很差 收不到着凉啊
然后第二天起床我就会出身汗,烧就退了。

在国外读书前 我都是在吉隆坡上课。以前发生的大事我都选择不告诉他们 因为啊要是我告诉他们了他们就会很担心 但是什么也做不了,为何让他们受苦呢?
虽然知道这样不对啦 但是我不想让他们操心
今天我发着烧,像傻逼一样蹲在电脑面前 打这篇文章 这是因为我想家了
或许带着缺爱的精神,让我毫不犹豫的写下了这一篇根本与标题一点关系也没有的文章
对不起啦
但是
国外求学 让自己发现 为了不让父母担心 我真的什么都做到哈哈
也发现 写下这篇也是因为自己 真的 好想家
或许我看起来好像游子,一点也不想家的那种
其实我

不是。只是不想和他们Skype因为我不想让他们想念我到没有心机工作读书 还有自己也没有心情啦

话说
坐我前面那个,还是不关注我 *泪崩!*

IT'S HALLOWEEN!

FINALLY, I am at oversea nowwww and I thought I would be celebrating halloween this year but mehhhhhhhhhhhhhhh~ NO.
Last year I did celebrate with Mag and Rou after I came back from Taiwan, but then we didn't dress up as what we initially thought we could be.

I always thought studying abroad = celebrating halloween. BUT, Jen went back Malaysia, Mr. Sunshine exam, others exam also.. T__T why lar why! Then to make myself happier since I am on my one week break now, I decided to ruin my face *throw confetti*

This look is actually very 'yeng' cuz you can still be pretty and disgusting at the same time. I don't have liquid latex so I used Mod Podge instead which I bought to seal the iPhone cover design I've done for Mr. Sunshine. It is non-toxic so my skin doesn't show any allergic effect so far.. Just do allergic test before you put on your face!

To do this, you'll need

  • 1 ply of tissue, tear into small pieces
  • Some liquid latex, which you can find in most of the Halloween store,
  • LIQUID LATEX ALTERNATIVES: gelatin, Mod Podge which I used for this look, or white craft glue, make sure those glues are non-toxic!
  • Liquid foundation (preferably and one shade darker than your skin tone because the new 'skin' will appear lighter if you use your shade of foundation)
  • Eyeshadows, brown and black
  • Fake blood, which you can get in most of the halloween stores as well, or make it yourself!
  • FAKE BLOOD DIY: By using corn syrup and red food dye. Add some vaseline for gooey texture which make it more realistic!
  • FAKE BLOOD DIY: Use some of your red eyeshadow or cut some red lipstick, add in some vaseline, mix them up. Add a tiny tiny bit of black for even realistic looking blood.
  • FAKE BLOOD ALTERNATIVES: Red lip gloss, Red lip tint (which I'm using.. *heartache*), Red lipstick (I used this too *heartache*)
  • Face moisturizer
  • A tweezer and small scissor (in case)


ZOMBIFYING TIME!

1. First, moisturize the part of your face that you are going to zombify. (meh who likes dry skin?)

2. Apply a layer of liquid latex to the area you want by using an unwanted brush or sponge.

3. Put the pieces of tissue to the area you've applied liquid latex while it is still wet, layer by layer.

4. After it is dry, add more liquid latex and tissues and let it dry again. Repeat this for 3 to 4 times.

5. On the last layer, apply a layer of liquid latex and make sure you smooth out the edges. Let it dry.

6. Apply your normal makeup as usual, and apply the darker foundation to your new 'skin'. Make sure they look like your real skin. Powder it to make the foundation stay.

After applying foundation, don't have darker foundation same shade will do, but need to apply thicker.

7. Cut some 'wounds' on the 'skin' by using tweezer or scissor. Be really careful on this cuz you don't want to hurt your face! Make some holes and be gentle to not rip the 'skin' apart.

8. Apply some dark brown eyeshadow to the wounds to create depth, then use black eyeshadow
around the wound to make it looks really deep.

9. Dirty your 'skin' and around the wounds by using the black and brown eyeshadow.
10. Apply the fake blood into your wounds and also some at the skin.

DONE!



This is my first attempt for doing special effect makeup cuz I've no chance to play around when I was in Malaysia. My younger brother actually thought "who is this idiotic girl who cut her face till like this" when he saw my photos HAHAHA bro that's your sister eh!

From one direction you might look completely normal and from the other direction you are zombified.

REMEMBER TO PUT ON YOUR COSTUME OR ATTIRE before you do this makeup

(I forgot and I can't fit any other shirt so a loose blouse would do..)



I think my wounded side too dirty.. hmm make
it looked like burnt :O

Oh by the way, I didn't put any blusher for this look and I did an exaggerating contouring for higher cheekbone (and i forgot to contour my jawline -.- make me look so mannn...) I 38 go and do 'bitten lip' effect for my lip and did aegyo-sal as well HAHAHA this make up damn nice lar despite the wounds LOL.. Make sure your skin should look extremely pale cuz girls or guys, you're a zombie now.

can see my aegyo-sal here! hahaha

Alright enough of selfie LOL! Be sure you try this out and scare more people! Who says Halloween can't be pretty yet creepy? hehehe HAVE FUN and take lotsa photos!!


HAPPY HALLOWEEN! xx





Lovesssss, J!
