DIY: turban headband

Here I am with my long overdue turban headband DIY. The thing I love with this headband is that it fits all kinds of hair style! Short or long, bangs, side-parting, middle parting, even pixie cut!! And it is definitely one of the hottest style in 2011.

How patriotically cute! From the goldensaturn at $35. *pengsan*
It's pretty easy to do from the looks of it. I've seen a few tutorials and here is my take on it.

What you need
I decided to choose the golden cloth for a more regal look. It can be regal or whimsical depending on the type of cloth you choose. As always, experiment!!

It's all done in an hour time!! :)

for a much clearer mind



i am in the midst of decluttering and detoxifying my room!

our bedroom should be haven and a place that reflects our innermost thought. if it is all cluttered and messed up. what does it say about you?? Would you even want to stay in the room.
my dream room: am loving the pink, grey, white colours

escapism

pic cdt: weheartit
"escapism is when I read a book about the kind of love i want to have whilst sipping on a beer alone in my room, reality is when i chuck all those book into a drawer, lock'em up. stow away the liquor. comb my hair and put on a new mask. and look for a companion i will never love"

It's a really sad story. But, i hope you find your happy ending.

suzsuz: if there's one thing we should escape from, it's not reality but the demons in our head.

We run KL 10k!!


Last Saturday, I went to pick up my Nike run race pack at Midvalley..I've been only on a couple of runs..but I got to say..Nike run is the fanciest!!! They even have a booth at Midvalley north court. Damn impressed.
nice sturdy bag
Other marathons would probably give all your race pack in a simple clear plastic. blegh~~ This bag is strong and sturdy but it's the content that got me hypersalivating...

The nikerun shirt in a reddish-orangish colour. (i love the colour) and a nike tumbler
Awesome or what. I can't wait to run!!! But then again,this wouldn't materialise if it wasn't for my awesome friends. God, I am so grateful for them. Thank you god....for friends~

I am grateful for where I am today.

There are some things in your past that might have traumatised you. Perhaps an incident or something you endured for a long time. I used to feel nauseous when I wake up every day and dread getting out of bed. But now no more. Leaving is an option (then) but again you wonder, is it me? Or, is it the environment? What if I leave and I find out that the problem is me?  I still can't tell if it's me or the environment. It is not that clear cut. Occasionally, one or two things crop up and remind you of your past pain. Suffice to say that, I do not detest the past no more. I do not reject that part of me, or how I have felt. I do not need your empathy no more because I am sure that I am a better person because of it. And, I am, I am grateful for where I am today. :)
