SO FRUSTRATED..

Why can't I upload my Meipai videos to my blog???

Or should I say, I can upload.

BUT. 

THEY CANNOT BE PLAYED.

Chrome cannot.

Firefox cannot.

Phone cannot.

This is driving me nuts.

Not sure if the problem is with Blogspot?

Or with my laptop?

Or with my not-so-smart phone?

I wanna blog about Stacci's birthday celebration..

But the Meipai videos are not playing!!

---

Speaking of phone.. I finally ordered my new IPHONE 6S this morning!

WOOHOO~~~♥

AND IN ROSE GOLD! ♥♥

(Ahh, I feel a lot better already.. Haha!)

Was hoping that I could go and collect it today but the seller messaged to say that the stock may only be available on 2 Dec.

May? May? Mayyy?

Praying hard that I can get my new smartphone soon!

So excited to revert back to using iPhone after 2 years!

Sorry Samsung, I realized I really can't love you..

Lovely Hair.. MINE! ♥

Was so motivated by my newly permed curls!

I want to KEEP having gorgeous hair!! ♥

Been thrifty for a while but for my hair.. BUY BUY BUY!! :D

Babyliss Hair Dryer

Super love this!

---

Bought Magic Hair Leverag!

To be honest, I didn't believe they would work.

Bought many random hair gadgets and none of them seem to work as promised.

But I thought Steffi and Stacci would probably have fun playing them.

Aiya, so cheap only..Just buy and try lah! Haha!

Saw some related videos.. 

Example of Fail Attempt

Hmm.. 

What we can learn from her experience: 

1. Don't attempt this when you are negative and doubtful that it would work.

2. Ensure your hair is tangle-free.

3. After part of your hair is inside, push up the spiral thingy and hold the upper half of the stick to prevent the stick from snapping into half when you tug at it.

(Re-watched the video after my first attempt in using them. Eh, I had no problem at all.
Can't help wondering.. Is it THAT hard? It's so simple that I think even my nieces can do it.)

Example of Successful Attempt

(Of course, it's BUBZ.. Haha!)

MY ATTEMPT! Haha!

Actually it was super easy and fast. I had fun doing it!
Went to bed with these.. Lalala~
Wasn't expecting much results actually. Just try lor.

The next day.. 

Wow, all the pieces stayed on and none of them drop off despite me turning in my sleep!

CHECK THIS OUT!!! ♥

WOW IT REALLY WORKS!! ♥

Super love the effects!!

I ukulele-ed! ♥

Went JB with Elise the other day.. AT LAST!

Was searching for my contact lenses when we chanced upon a shop that sells instruments..

UKULELE!!!

Been wanting to buy one for ages so that I can start learning it.

Yes, it is a #NewChallengeForMyself

(Previously I challenged myself to learn cycling.. And I did it! ♥)

Initially I wanted to buy a cheap one to try, in case I give up.. Heh!

But after reading some advices online, i decided to buy a better one.

No point buying a cheap one with poorer sound quality right?

Knowing myself, I'll probably be less motivated to learn it!

And so..

Presenting my new 'family member'.. 小乐乐! ♥

Isn't she beautiful!! So is her "voice"! ♥

Bought it for about RM210.. Love her!

Her body is made of wood (instead of plastic) with aquila strings.

And it comes with a bag too!

Fingers are sore, red (sometimes a little purple) and even a bit swollen.

But the music is so beautiful that I just wanna keep playing it!

Had this strong feeling that I will keep trying until I've learnt it..

Even if my fingers bleed!

---

So I started watching Youtube tutorials and practising it on my own.

SO HARD to memorize the chords and change them accordingly!

My fingers feel so clumsy! So gonna keep practising!

---

Started by solely learning basic chords.. Which I soon felt bored. 

Decided to learn chords by learning to play songs.

1st song that I started learning.. 小幸运!

This lady teaches well but I can't catch up with her speed.. >.<

(I will come back to her video later when I'm more zai.. Lol!)

---

Found this! Another good teacher and her speed is more noob-friendly.. Haha!

But I still haven't learnt it though.. Practise practise!

Omg, that Bb chord!!! *SULKS*

---

And then I decided.. Maybe I should be less ambitious and learn a super simple song first..

Tada! Simple and a song that needs to be sung several times in a year! LOL!

The HAPPY BIRTHDAY song!

This guy teaches quite well but he talks so much about his sister's birthday. Gosh!

Advice: Skip to 3:39 if you just want to learn how to play the song!

After learning the simple version, I decided to learn a harder version!

---

This version feels 'richer' compared to the simple one.. I like!

After learning the simple version, this is quite easy to learn.

But I still need to practise more to play it fluently though!

---

Playing the ukulele is A LOT harder than I expected!!

Sometimes I wonder, 

How can people remember sooo many chords and notes??

How is it even possible to do certain chords??

How can the fingers be placed like that!!?

The person who invented ukulele is a genius indeed!!!

But after practising, it does actually seem easier.. WOW!?
And being able to play ANYTHING (haha) feels absolutely amazing! ♥

(Initially, I didn't even know how to place my fingers properly!!)

Hopefully after A LOT of practice, I can finally play the ukulele like a pro!

Although that's not going to happen anytime soon.. Haha!

I don't know.. 1 year? 2 years?

Fortunately, I think I really love it.

Have been practising it for at least 1 hour daily..

(In fact, sometimes I played for 2, 3 hours without realising it!)

Although my fingers hurt, I hardly notice it too.

In return for beautiful music, this little pain is nothing~ :)

Hope I can be good in playing ukulele eventually!

Hello Mocha Girl Girl!

Full picture here:

Until now I still find it hard to accept.

Why did she leave us so suddenly..

Just look at the photo on top.

It was taken merely a couple of days before she died.

She didn't look like she was not healthy at all.

Only clues were the bits of bones that my sister spotted at Mocha's anus when she died.

Somebody please tell me how to forgive the old bastard who gave her chicken bones even though we kept telling him NOT TO DO IT.

---

Had dreamt of Mocha previously.. 

1st time

She was lazing right in front of our main door.

Somehow I could understand her:

"I am always here, watching over all of you."

2nd time

Just this year when Eugene just passed away.

Had been feeling sad and couldn't stop tearing every now and then.

Then one night I dreamt of Mocha!

Somehow I felt that Eugene was nearby but he didn't want to show himself.

Had the feeling that he brought her here to comfort me.

But at the sight of Mocha, I immediately hugged her and started crying..

Told her how much I miss her,

When I woke up, I strangely felt a lot better.

And I stopped crying over Eugene's death.

Life is full of mysteries..

---

Writing this entry still make me tear a bit.

I miss, miss my sweet little Mocha girl so much!

How I wish I can see her again..

Will I?

Happy Catching Up~

Always a pleasure to meet up with old friends. :):):)

Kenny and 2 more of his friends (yay, new friends!) came to meet me to la kopi.. 

Although we didn't la any kopi. Haha!

Had a great time chilling out with them! Whoa, all have pets! And very real people. 

It's very comfortable to hang out around them.

And finally got ppl to go ktv with me~~ Lol! 

Almost forgot how to sing liao lor!

---

Was chatting random stuff and Kenny commented, I kept talking about Eugene. Opps! 

But yet I refused to say much about this mysterious guy.

Always thought that I prefer the mysterious guy more than Eugene..

But after Kenny pointed that out, I wondered if I think of Eugene more?

Then again, it could also be due to the fact that the things that happened are crazily epic..

And hence, make interesting topics..?

Hmm..

I don't understand my own feelings either. Well, it doesn't matter.. I guess? 

Anyway both guys are out of my reach now and whatever feelings I have are for the guys they used to be. 

Not the current them.

Does that make sense to you? Haha!

---

Reached home and continued to think. Ha!

Maybe like what Kenny said, 我还是有点放不下..

Kenny mentioned that he missed Eugene's singing so I sent him the link to the videos below:

(Every time I watched his videos, it feels like he's still alive.

Those good old days when we used to be so sweet until everyone said we attract ants..)

---

Kenny later messaged me this:

"After watching can still feel the sweetness in him.

I think that's the part of the memories you should keep."

This boy ah.. When did he grow up to be a mature adult? :)

Time flies indeed!
