The Hunger Games.

I am absolutely hooked onto this book. It's so amazing! The author needs to be kissed.
I made these nails inspired by this beautiful Trilogy :)

sniffles and love and happiness.

I'm quite excited. No, scratch that. I'm very excited. Actually, I'm more happy than excited. Wondering why? Well, everything in my life is good. No, everything is great. No, that's inadequate as well. Everything is ABSOLUTELY FANTASTICALLY UNICORNS-SHITTING-RAINBOWS AMAZING.

But what's NOT good is that I'm sick. Horribly sick. Sniffling-sobbing-coughing-and-dying kind of sick. I also skipped two days of school because of that. Which is the worst thing to do ever, because I really can't afford to miss school. Not in year 11, with hardly a month of school left before my igcse's. And especially not a Monday and a Tuesday! We have most of the horribly difficult classes on these two days. Missing them is like digging your own grave. So.. I'm not sure what I'm gonna do. I'm probably gonna get a whole lot of cover work to dramatically drown in.

To top it all off, I have a lot of assignments that are due in, and I haven't exactly.. finished.. them. I had a math project due in Monday, which I managed to finish at 2 am Sunday night despite being horribly sick (I was planning to send it in to school. Who knows? Maybe I'd need to submit it despite being sick.) but then after emailing my teacher Monday morning, he told me to bring it when I recovered and came to school. What a waste of a good night's sleep.

I also have this cartoon analysis due in for History. Truthfully, it was due in last Wednesday, but I had this breakdown in school (happens more often than not :/ ) and had to be sent home. (That's a story for another time, though.) So I never ended up handing that in. Not that I had anything to hand in, though. I hadn't exactly done it. I hate analysing cartoons. I mean.. they're not exactly super hard. But they just eat at my brain. I hate trying to stare at these cartoon characters on a page, drawn by some dude who is surreptitiously commenting on political situations through drawings. I know what you're thinking. Wow, how creative of him. But you know what I'm thinking? Stop drawing so I can analyse a WRITTEN source, please? But to no avail. No one listens to me, no. I still am being forced to analyse stupid cartoons. I know I should have finished this assignment and handed it in already. Tomorrow, my History teacher is going to murder me. She's real awesome, but when she gets mad, she'd frighten the pants off a professional wrestler. She makes you want to:
a) hide under a table,
b) burst into tears
c) run away, or
d) all of the above, simultaneously.

But I can't be blamed for not finishing it. I have so much on my mind lately. I can't focus on my studies. At all. I'm just.. thinking so much.

That's not my fault, either. I seem to have fallen in love. Again. I know what you're thinking. Really, Kim? You want to go through all the drama of falling in love again? But you know what? Shut up. Falling in love with someone new has caused me to finally, finally, finally get over my ex boyfriend. Finally. (That really needed to happen. It was way overdue. It should have happened last year. It should happened the second I started dating him. Hell, I never should have fallen for him. *sigh* ...But it did happen. But now? I can just forget about it and pretend it never happened so whatever.) I swear, I didn't think this could happen again. I had honestly thought he was it. But I'm very glad to know he isn't. And I really, really, really like, no, love this other person. God. Writing it down, it just sounds so... real.

I would love to talk about who I have these feelings for. But I'm going to wait a bit before I reveal any hints about 'em.

Anyway.. I hope you guys still follow me.
Hope you haven't given up on me because of my complete lack of posting.

If you have, have unfollowed me, you probably can't read this, but whatever. I'm ruining my own moment.)

If you haven't... I LOVE YOU. MARRY ME? <3

(Actually, no. There is already someone I want to marry. But whatever.)

(Good lord, I ruin a lot of moments.)

(Whatever.)

(Why do I say that word so much? I sound like a sad little tween who can't think of anything else to say.)

(....Eh. Who cares? Whatever.)

(I shall shut up, now.)

(Stop typing, Kim!)

(Bye.)

Monochrome.

Did a quick design because my nails were starting to look a little boring.
Let me know if you'd like a tutorial, although the design was fairly easy.
Hope you like!

I know I have yet to post a video tutorial. I've just been SO BUSY.
I'm sorry, it really is making me sad. I promise I will try.

Oh, and I have a surprise for you all! Yesterday, I got a tattoo! I'm so excited. I absolutely love it. I shall be posting about it next week or so. Look forward to it!

Thank you once again :)

purple.

Created a purple themed look. I realized some people find it hard to wear purple without looking like they got punched in the eye. That's where I come in! :)
Here is the eye look-

I have a tutorial for you, now. Hope it helps!

1.



  • Prime your eye. I used Two Faced's Shadow Insurance. 
  • Darken your eyebrows. 
2. 

  • Using a berry purple eyeliner, draw a line in the direction of your eyebrows, almost as if you would join it but stop halfway.
3. 

  • Using the same liner, draw a line in your crease, stopping before the inner corner.
4. 

  • Apply a light rose pink all over 2/3rd of the lid.
5. 



  • Apply a warm pink all over that, but stopping a little more than halfway into the lid.

6. 

  • Using the same eye liner, draw the outline of a larger wing, extending it further than the eyebrows. The previously draw 'V' should be kept intact. (I drew the wing later because I wanted the 'V' to be visible when I was filling in the darker purple)
  • Fill it in with a berry purple shadow, following the shape of the 'V' but blending away the sharp edges.

7. 

  • Using a darker purple, go over the wing but stop 2/3rd in. blend with the remaining berry purple.
We're now finally done with purples and pinks. So far, starting from the inner, it is a light pink, a warm pink, a berry purple and a dark purple, respectively. Make sure they're blended seamlessly. 

8.
  • Blend in a yellow in the inner corner. Blend it in the light pink really well, or it looks harsh. (In this image, I hadn't blended it very well. Later, I realized my error and blended it in further. But I'd advise you to blend it in well from the start.
  • Using upward sweeping motions, fade yellow out from the top of the wing, make sure to blend it upwards, and not get any on the purple wing. 

9.


  • Line your eyes. (I used a gel liner) 
  • Create an eyeliner wing along the line of the purple shadow wing. Like a miniature wing inside  a wing. Wing-ception!
10.

  • Apply false lashes and mascara, and you're done with the eyes!
11.  Face: I used a dark berry purple to define my cheekbones, and applied a rose pink blush right above that, and a peachy pink on my cheekbones. 

12. Lips: Black Lipstick, with berry purple blended into the center of my lips. 


Don't they look awesome?




All done! :)




Hope you liked it!

P.s. This isn't wearable, fi you haven't noticed already. Well, maybe the eyes, if you tone them down a little. Does anything want another eye look similar to this but wearable?

Stressed.


Starting Monday, which is tomorrow, my mock igcse exams are starting.
This is extremely annoying.
My igcse's are in MAY. I don't see why my mocks have to be all the way in January! I'm most definitely not prepared.
Therefore, I am extremely stressed out. I won't be posting much for the next couple of weeks.

It was given to me by Colour by makeup, and I'm really, really grateful to her <3

RANDOM FACTS:
  1. Whenever I wash my hands, I wash my nose too. I don't know why! I always have to touch up my nose because I wash off the makeup from it. I don't know why I do it, but I always do! I can't stop, either, I tried. 
  2. I live right next to the sea, and it's so pretty. I love waking up early in the morning and watching the sea from my balcony with a hot cup of tea and my fluffy Golden Retriever sitting by my feet.
  3. I don't want to ever leave my school, DSB. Sometimes I try and make time go by reaaally slowly, because I know I will be leaving in half a year, and it makes me really sad. It feels like home, and I don't want to leave.
  4. I can't do anything if I don't have my iphone with me. I'm handicapped without it. I do EVERYTHING on it. Without it I am...lost.
  5. I love cherries. My dad always gets me these really good, but expensive, ones. They taste so good, I absolutely love them<3
  6. I don't know how to make tea, although I drink it every day. 
  7.  I feel very, very insecure if I leave the house without makeup on. Lately, I've been doing that very often because I'm studying so much that I don't have time to bother about my appearance. But it makes me feel really, really horrible, and I avoid looking in mirrors or taking pictures. I can't wait to be done with all this exam stress, and be able to go back to my daily routine of making me look pretty.
