A trip to the hair saloon

My hair had rather been neglected for a while because I was always too busy to get my hair fixed. Finally when the boyfie said that he needed his haircut, I decided to tag along. It was my first time to hair saloon and actually request for academia to cut my hair. Not that I do not trust their skills (actually part of it yes) but more so because I damn ego don't want to be seen as some stingy fella.

Anyways, we went to this shop at Pekaka area to get our haircuts. It is RM5 per person for wash, cut and blow dry. I added another RM5 for better shampoo (which I concluded as really unnecessary). I was assigned to a female student while boyfie to a male student.

She started to wash my hair and she took like the longest time ever to wash my hair. I think that maybe she wanted to wait for her instructor to be ready. She was extremely nervous, which got me feeling nervous as well.

When she finally done with my hair, she toweled dry it and then turned to her instructor and said, "What's next?" That two words got my stomach tangled up and I was more nervous than ever. She dare not even start to cut my hair until a female instructor came over and guided her. Thank God for instructors.

She kept messing up and got her instructor to save her and me. (Thank God again) Each time she combed my hair, my heart dropped a little. And when she cut my hair, I almost fainted. Each ticking minute was traumatizing enough for me that I wished she would say, "Ok, done!" When she was finally done, I was so excited to walk out. At least I still have my long hair (though it's way messier than before I got in) and I'm glad I did not lose an ear or eyebrow. It's not that I look down on her but because she was so nervous and slow-mo, it was killing me inside.

Tips to avoid spoiling things

The best lesson I learnt today. In order not to spoil things, you don't touch it. Don't do anything around the house. No wonder i rarely spoil things! =p

 I learnt this from boyfie's mishaps. And the only guilt I got is the guilt of not helping out instead of the guilt of spoiling things. Poor boyfie is the one to bear the guilt of spoiling things.

Anyway, got a brighter note, we went around Georgetown looking at the interesting wall arts. Will post it up soonest. Last year we went on a Heritage Walk and took gorgeous pictures before I put on some weight. Will blog that too. Soonest.

Ok, back to the point of the blog, remember this lesson well okay? But do occasionally take responsibility of spoiling things and do some work around the house. Perhaps you are not as clumsy and you'll manage to lessen the burden around the house and yet you don't break a thing (or in this case, melt).

iBake

Now that I don't teach as much as I used to, I procrastinate a lot by reading novels, playing stupid games and occasionally (like today only) I decided to bake Blueberry Muffin with Choc Chip toppings. The boyfie gonna bring me to Sim's Company that sells wide range of baking supplies at reasonable price.

 

Muffin in the making. Before the oven.

After the oven. With lots more choc chip sprinkled on top and then editted with apps. <3

The taste AWESOME!!! And the boyfie is asking for more!! And I cooked some Korean food over the week as well but I don't have any pictures. More to come!

Embarking a new phase

I think it is finally time that I change my blog to a more normal url and blog something someone my age would.

I have been very negative all my life. I'm always thinking that I'm not good enough, I cannot do it, I have no experience and all that. I have decided as of today to stop thinking like that. I am good enough, I can do whatever I want to do because God empowers me and He guides me. I am the child of God, my God is an able God, so I cannot say I am not good enough.

I will put 120% in everything I do and tries to overcome my insecurities, my fear, my low self-esteem. If I work hard, I am going to get students for tuition. All I have to do is prepare myself, my notes and my knowledge. Then I'll look for students which God will provide. =D

People never fail to amaze me how they will try their best to push another person's button. Unfortunately, I have plenty of buttons to be pushed before they hit the 'right' one. I can be the strong woman God created me to be yet tender and gentle inside. =)

Moving on

I'm strongly contemplating on changing to a new blog. But I'm currently too busy and too lazy. I will, eventually. This blog has collected too much dust that nothing I do can bring it back to its glorious day. I tried and failed and decided to move on to another. This blog has long lost its charm because I am now completely different person than I was when I started it in 2006. I am not sure if I am going to even get a new blog because putting in ads and adding things in it seems to take a lot of time which I prefer spending on doing nothing. But I may get hardworking. =D
