Chuui Rambles: A post to take my mind off results! (Since updated!)

Thursday 18th August. The dreaded results day. Today will be the day I find out my A-level results, and whether I met my beastly offer of A*A*AA... It is also my 19 month anniversary with my boyfriend, and we've got lovely anniversary things planned for the day. I really hope the day isn't ruined by my results! I wanted to do a bit of blogging to take my mind off results..just a little rambley post today!

Update: I got the grades I needed! :D Wooooooooop hahha....managed to get A*A*A*A, which I am more than happy about! So incredibly relieved :)

I went for a shop earlier this week, and picked up a beautiful pair of shoes from Baratts! There was a sale on inside and I just couldn't resist a peek...and found these beauties!

I love, love, love the bow at the front! They were originally £28, and were reduced to £10....what a find! I was incredibly happy when I saw these shoes in my size haha. Baratts seems to always have a sale every time I go into town, maybe it's the failing economy...I picked up a nice little dress from H&M too, which I forgot to take a photo of, but it's blue and white and polka dotty! :)

I also dyed my hair red, or at least attempted to! I bought a box of hair dye from Schwarzkopf, the actual name of the hair dye escapes me...the shade was called mahogany though! The colour chart looked promising,the result looked great even for dark brown hair. I had very high hopes as I washed the dye out of my hair, but alas, I should have known there was no way my hair could have got lighter in colour! I think it's quite nice though, especially when it catches the sun. Under indoor lighting it is very subtle and just warms up my complexion, so I'm happy. Okay I realise my hair doesn't look red in the photo below, but I swear it is, just very very subtly! Haha...

A childhood friend of mine bought me a box of moon cakes from China! I received them yesterday and they love them! Unlike conventional moon cakes, which are round, they are shaped into little rabbits! I think they are beyond adorable, and they taste very yummy too. Eee love her so much :)

Ooo I also experimented with my gel eyeliner today, and I think it turned out quite pretty! Hehe...

This is my first updatey/rambley post isn't it! Well I hope it makes a good read...it has taken some of my nervousness away, which is good.

Good night everyone!

Much love,

Chuui

Update & Experimental Look

Hello! It has been so long since my last blog post, too long! Moving house turned out to be more stressful than imagined, it has literally drained me. I always tired these days, even more so than before, which I did not think was possible.

So I’ve now fully settled in, and have the internet! Woooo! Cannot wait to catch up on everyone’s blog posts, I’ve missed my daily blog dose ha. I’m really loving the new house, the stress was definitely worth it.

Now, to the make-up! I’ve always been hesitant to be adventurous with my make-up. I’d go for the nude look every time, a few coats of mascara and some foundation. It’s probably because I am pretty much incapable of getting up in the morning. If it doesn’t get to the stage where I have to get up, then I just don’t. So I rarely get enough time to make myself look pretty. I have always wanted to branch out into the world of eyeshadows, but my awkward eyelids and my awful application stop me from even trying most of the time. I do however like playing with make-up when I'm bored, so here's a look I came up with!
