Having just read Chels' blog has kinda promted me to realise that I haven't touched my blog for a really long long time. Sigh, kinda feel that so many of my friends are leaving the country, either to study, work or migrate! Most of my closer uni friends have all gone back to Aust after the summer break and have already started their semester, so it won't be at least another year till I get to meet up with them. Others have gone on with post-grad studies which makes me come to think of what I really wanna do next...Masters degree??? I think I've become a pretty boring person, haven't been going out much as I used to. So need to get back my life! So friends, do call me out ya. Gosh I sound so pathetic!
But yes, the past 2 months at work has been pretty hectic and stressful. Learning alot but it can get pretty crazy at times. Anyway, I shall not bring work into the topic of my post... it's the long weekend afterall! Thank God!
I've finally got down to painting my room a pretty shade of plumish purple. Contrasted it along with another lighter lilacish colour. I love it! Proud of the final outcome considering I did it by myself. Actually choose the lilac a shade too light coz it looked more like white when I first painted the wall... in the end decided to do some colour chemistry of my own. I'm still wanting to do a mural of this black/white fairy-like abstract portrait on the wall above my bed. Took quite a bit of time to select the perfect picture... now is just finding the time to do it. Might post a pic when I finally get down to it. Hah!
Here's the room before...stripped bare! 
This was where colour chemistry had to come in coz the whitish purple didn't turn out the way it was supposed to be.... took me some time to figure out mixing to achieve the right shade!
Ok I know I look spastic with the shower cap. But hey, it's like the best way to prevent your hair from getting splashes of paint especially when painting the ceiling! 
Fooling around while painting...
The room after.... 
Anyway, I'm getting so freaking fair from being stuck in the office it's really quite scary! Especially for people who have always known me to be a little tan, that's the first thing they realise about me nowadays when they see me! I hate being fair, and since I have been down with this prolonged irritating cough for the past 3 weeks, haven't got as much sun and exercise as I would have liked to. Nvm, tomorrows gonna be the start of my mission to get back my tan!Swimming!
