Maybe not so buta jalan at 21

I’ve finally (!) Figured out how to get to Klang’s Post office.
After a week of trying.
Meh.
Sometimes, you can’t just wait for somebody to hand over the directions to you.
You have to do it yourself and via the old fashion way- Get on the road and stop to ask for directions.
I guess the old ways are the best.
(Google maps DID NOT help one bit!)
I managed to find the place in only an hour.
(This is a MAJOR feat to me!)

Again, simply being nice to others works wonders!
Some even drew maps for me.
And although you guys won’t read this, Thank you!

We’re supposed to hand in out memorials tomorrow.
And the trainers are going to check our work in a couple of hours.
*Gulp*
So to calm my nerves and to relax after a day of stressing out editing points of law that I’m not very sure of- I did my nails. *Bahaha!*

Right

Thumb, index & pinkie fingers in Elianto's Grape Wine
Middle & ring fingers in Orly's Sand Castle


I think I’m having a good nail week.
This time the application was flawless.
I normally have problems applying Orly and Elianto nail polishes..
(=.=)”









PS- Look what I picked up from the post office!



(These are mine~)
To those who purchased some together with me, You’ll get yours soon!

Ouh Oh...

I SUCK at saving money.

Seriously.
Am an EPIC failure.

I naively thought that starting a business would help with my money woes.
Hah!
I should've opted selling things that I absolutely hate because surrounding myself with such pretty things makes me want to buy them for myself!

And my supplier HAD to tempt me with a year end sale!
Grrr!!!
But they had the IT Enviro-Health-safe brand, ZOYA for sale..
And I can NEVER find it in M'sia for the price they're offering (=.=)"


Please focus on the 'Toxin free' part.
NOT the moms part.
I ain't Preggers!

I bought 3.
That's 3 MORE to my already ordered pile of nail polishes I bought together with my so called 'clients'.

It needs repeating: EPIC FAILURE!!!
*Super flying kick muka sendiri!*

Needless to say, the number of clients I get does not even cover the cost of things I buy.
ARRRGH!

Will NOT be surprised if one day my loved ones decide to organize an intervention for me.
The sorry man who marries me better have an obese pocket!
Meh.











I am still stuck with my money woes.
And with Jessup, I can't even work to earn the money.
Which leaves me the only one option; to WIN Jessup and stash away some of the spending money we'll get.
(Yeah RIGHT! I'll be in freakin' DC! I'll more likely arrive with an empty suitcase and come back with TWO!!!)
Fuck me.

If you’re not sure of the ‘real’ colour of the polishes, just google it up at google images! A bunch of swatches will come up!
If you’ve never heard of these brands (tsk..tsk..) and how awesome they are, search them at YouTube!


Have a nice holiday babes!



A learning experience

Through moots, I learnt 1 new thing, the fine print really do contain some important shit.
Oh yeah, and also the fact that I'm NOT a morning person and will NEVER be one.

Through my new business, I learnt 3 things;

1) Who you know is REALLY important.
And all you need to do is to be nice, and people will bend backwards to help you.
Heh. Never knew that really works.
So life lesson learnt.
And thank you to Pieces of key for helping me advertise my new venture :)
I owe you one.

2) Never simply assume things will go well.
I seriously thought that as a UITM student who can NEVER find cool things easily on campus, this venture would get huge support.
I personally would jump at the chance to get things like discounted apparel/shoes/cosmetics that would be delivered personally to me.
But I learnt that not everybody would react the same way.

3) I am not a patient girl.
Meh.
It's been 3 days since I've started the business and I've sold around 15 confirmed bottles.
And I'm so bloody impatient with getting the 50 bottle cap.
I'm so scared that 15 is all I'll get.
I had to be reminded by a seasoned seller that 15 bottles in 3 days is a feat.
(=.=)"








The boyfriend's birthday is coming soon.
And I have no idea what to get him.
Plus, I'm broke.

I am such a horrible girlfriend.

Nailed it!

In between preparations for Jessup and coping without a maid at home, I (somehow) managed to start a business.
Adoih.
This is not multi-tasking, this is craziness.

The funny part is, I'm selling nail polish.
Which is pretty much the last thing I'd expect myself to sell.
(though I absolutely adore nail polishes.)
It's a small project.
And it's seasonal (due to the shipping schedules).
I don't even have an official page for it.
No special contact number or E-mail.
So it's a very personal service.
My personal reputation is on the line.

I better not screw up.
*Gulp!*

Am hoping like mad that I'll manage to pull it off without actually LOSING money.
I think I'm on the road of EPIC failure because I only managed to narrow it down to 15 bottles for myself.
Meh.
The only one winning here in my supplier!
*Flying kick muka sendiri*
(I've been flying kicking myself way to frequently lately. This is bad!)








Oh.
Btw, If any of you readers are interested, do contact me :)
(Drop me a msg on the chatbox or e-mail me at arinalum@gmail.com)
O.P.I goes for RM 32 & China Glaze goes for RM25.
But I hope you personally know me coz I don't prefer post services.
(As I said, this is just a pet project)
Or if not, then you could to opt for COD around Shah Alam & Subang.
(More free advertising! Haha. *Muka tebal*)
