How to remove glitter nailpolish EASILY

I love dark polishes and I love glitter polishes.
However, these 2 kinds of polishes are probably the hardest to remove! I would spend a long time trying to scrub them off especially the glitter polishes. I had OPI's Mad As A Hatter on previously and when I went for a pedicure, the staff took a long time trying to remove it and then resorted to buffing it off! That is BAD for the nails!

Anyway, couple of days ago, I chanced upon this tutorial which showed how easy it was to actually remove glitter polish. I was really excited about this because I'd then be more willing to put on glitter polish.

Step 1: Soak your cotton pad with polish remover. Just have to soak an area which can cover your entire nail.

Step 2: Place the soaked cotton pad on your nail and make sure to cover the entire nail.

Step 3: Wrap a piece of aluminium foil around your nail. This is to keep the cotton pad moist.

Step 4: Wait a couple of minutes. (I waited 5 because I was playing candy crush) Unwrap the foil.

Step 5: Gently massage the nail with the cotton pad still on it. This loosens the polish if it has not already come off.

Step 6: Slide the cotton pad off your nail. Gently press down on it and slide it off so in a way, you're cleaning off any remaining polish on the nail.

YOU'RE DONE!

If you still have tiny areas of polish on the nail, just clean it off using the conventional method. If you find that your pesky glitter polish is still there, repeat above process.

After 5 mins, the nail was clean! No scrubbing, no tugging.

I'm late to the party but SHINee's REPLAY is so awesome!

I had this on replay *ahem* the whole day.
Couldn't get the melody out of my head.

Replay - Noona Is So Pretty, 2008, SHINee's debut track (Also, Victoria pre-f(x)!)

Replay - You Are My Everything, 2011, SHINee's debut single in Japan
The official video from EMI couldn't be embedded :(

Watching the 2011 version, how they've grown!! Especially Taemin. Video also looks slicker. SHINee has progressed very much in the clothing department. That's for sure.
Taemin's smile hasn't changed. Most male idols are always concentrating on emoting/smouldering gazes when they dance but Taemin SMILES. I noticed this in his live performances too.
For rookies, they were really very good. The singing and dancing were solid. AND they were so young when they debuted! Maknae Taemin was 15 (him being a '93-er) and the oldest, Onew was 19 (89-er).

I'm more of a fan of SHINee themselves rather than their music. I like that they can dance and can sing. I like that *rappers* and *visuals* are also given a chance to sing. It's good to see Minho singing as well. Even the best dancer Taemin does something other than dance. He can sing decently too.
SHINee members do have distinctive voices. I can tell when it's Key, Jonghyun or Onew right away. They also get the most singing parts..
My favorite SHINee songs are Sherlock and Replay.
*SHINee's back! dadadadum SHINee's back! back back back back!* I'M SO CURIOUS YEAAA! soy un dorito (or whatever it's supposed to be)

"That's nice..." = That sounds nice but I have no idea what to say / That's totally NOT nice!

"Go, have fun!" = Fine, GO if you want to. Don't come back. 

"Tell me about it" = I feel the same way. Do not actually tell me about it. 

"oh by the way..." = This is the reason why I'm talking to you in the first place

"I know right..." = I get it

"lol/haha..." = spacefiller. I hope you're not going to harp on this; I really have nothing to say. 

"ok..." = Sure, that's fine / WHATEVER, you suck!

"mmmm..." = I'm thinking but I'll KIV that / Like I'll ever believe you! 

"Riiight" = I totally believe you. NOT. 

"I need to sleep" = I need to sleep / This conversation ends here. 

Disclaimer: Don't take this too seriously.

Coach + VDay

Heading to MBS tomorrow!
Should I give myself a little present since vday is coming? :D
The Coach updates are tempting me.

Hope Prada is open!

Today the seniors were asking me what I look out for. I don't have any criteria but I have to feel good about a person. Usually I'm wrong so ... that's it. Such is my life!
It has been quite some time but I'm just finding it better to stay nonchalant and generally, don't feel anything for anyone.
Well, if there was anything, today settled it.

Anomaly Alert!

Today was a good day! :)
We did something which was unheard of in prior years. Hmm, I guess people needed to rush home to cook rice? ;)
Not that I'm complaining.

I MISS KTV!
Glee has been amazing with their song choices! They make everything sound good. Okay MOST things. However, gotta wait till post-Superbowl for the next episode :( *irate* It had better be good! Loved the Rocky Horror and Wedding episode. I teared when they sang Just the Way You Are :) *touched*

What has to be done, has to be done. If no one else is willing to say it, then I'll freaking say it. Hate me all you want. I couldn't be bothered.
Very amusing.

Almost 1

I'm still at work :(
I don't know what I'm doing but I'm at work.
Just don't feel like doing anything anymore. Seeing stars. * _ *
Gonna wake up tomorrow with a 'I Want To Die' feeling.

Guess we're making up for the hours missed yesterday.
Drats.

This is going to be the norm for a month or 2 or 3.
GAWD.

Wish I was sitting outside... maybe can get some shut eye.

We left before 9 today.
Could've been earlier but I shall not complain.
Thank goodness intelligence prevailed!

That woman is such a liar. Would I pretend to not have things? I'm happy if you give me things. You freaking did not.

It's probably a genuine oversight but to delete my things? SE RIOUS LY.

Materialism

I need a job.
Otherwise I can't fund my cravings.
Even though my job sucks ..
I digress, I've always thought if I posted my job on fml, the unanimous vote is 'I agree, your life sucks'.
... Well, because there's this connotation of being professional and Hey! nice office, despite no one really understanding what I do, I can deal with it.

Is there something wrong with me being all caught up with designer labels all of a sudden?
Like, overnight life's goal would be to own a designer bag.
For the simple reason of 'Because I can'.
I d'no. Perhaps peak would do me good. A few months of late nights, tears, all-around misery, for a handbag? You have got to be kidding...

Dos Meses

Victor just told me he's out of the engagement! I AM ENVIOUS, much.
It would be nice to just be somewhere normal once in a while. 
If I thought back then was stressful, I think I can just quit and save myself the trouble of lamenting that life sucks and I am suicidal ... because finals will be awful. 

Speaking of awful, yesterday was a Bad day. 
I'm not blaming anyone (not even myself) because seriously, it was just a series of unfortunate events. 
No one could have seen it coming. 
Which again reiterates my point that clients don't really know/understand/appreciate what we're doing. 
Have you ever been in a situation where you can feel that the client does not welcome you and really really hate that you are there? Oh, screw feeings, the client tells you that you are not welcomed and you shouldn't be there. 

Countdown. 2 months.
