Dark Chocolate

Everyone says the hardest thing to do is saying goodbye. It is true.
It's been five months & I had to say goodbye to alot of good people. But I'm more saddened to the upcoming farewells that I'll have to face. I'm also stressed & afraid. I guess the fear of not being to do my job well without them, inquiries & such. I've been afraid since January and the sooner their departure arrives, the more I wish time could slow down but nothing goes as we want them to. I'm only crying on the inside, afraid to show it out. I don't want to create a depressing, sad atmosphere when they leave. After all, they've got their reasons and none are selfish reasons.
We just said farewell just last week. He was just a trainee, but he's been in Dubai for about a year and knew everyone. I knew him for few months only, but I was happy to have an opportunity to work with him. I wish him all the best of luck & thank him for teaching me alot XD
Next week, I'm bidding farewell to another great colleague who was the most annoying, silly & always gets himself into trouble XD He taught & trained me from A to Z about my current job & his. He helped me quite a lot when my boss & my other team member were on leave.
I will not admit it to him but I am going to miss him. I bet everyone will miss him. The office will lose its craziness without him. I wish him all the best of luck in his new job and hope he gets many opportunities in his life :)
A month later, I'll be also saying farewell to another great colleague who I currently share an office. Our desks are facing eachother so it'll be weird for me not to see her. She has really strong reasons to leave and I support her because she's a new mother & has to be with her baby & family. I was lucky to know her because when I joined in, she was on maternity leave. It wasn't until early February that I got to know her and talk to her.
I'm really nervous & frightened. I don't know what's coming up next and I'm nervous to work with my new colleagues. Well, one of them is good because he did a few weeks of training with us so I'm comfortable working with him. I still don't know about the other colleague as my boss still hasn't found anyone.
While I can't control the days and the major events that will occur, I have and will always cherish the memories that we were and are creating together and keep them to heart always.

Thank you so much for teaching me! I love you guys so much!!! Please stay in touch and take care of yourselves!!! <3

K-Pop (Korean Pop) Song of the day/night:
I have been listening to this song ever since they debuted a few days ago.
They're an all girl Korean group called "APink".  They sang a song called "Wishlist", which I'm in love with right now.
Please give it a listen ^-^


Another k-pop song I've been listening to alot is Super Junior K.R.Y. "Fly". They sang this track as the theme song for "Superstar K3" (which is an audition show very similar to American Idol) and this is it's third season (hence the K3) which will start soon.
It leans into rock more than pop and really energetic. The song, in short, encourages people to follow their hearts and make their dreams come true.

Rainbow Bright Cookies

After 6 years, I finally exchanged my eye glasses for contact lenses!! I'm really excited! It's been a week now & it's really k0o0ol! I'm using the dailys (Johnsons & Johnsons 1-Day Acuvue Moist). I can barely feel it on my after placing it on my eye~ ^.^~

Other than that, this weekend (Thursday & Saturday) I went quick shopping! Here's what I got:
I found this k0o0ol under eye face care sheet. I didn't really understand what it does, but there's four sheets in each pack and you put on each under your eye for 10 minutes.
It left a nice cool feeling, because when you sleep late and wake up early and your life is in front the computer, your under eyes darkens and has this red undertone (at least that's what I have), you might feel like it's really hot and you feel really tired. It really works for me so I'm going to purchase again.
(you can find it in Daiso, the Japanese store. In UAE, it's AED 7.)



















I also fake lashes and glue. Reality wise, I don't need them because I got full lashes, but I'm curious to try them on.


I also bought a duo sponge to apply powder easily under my eyes.



















Today I went to The Face Shop & since summer is back, I got nothing to protect my face ( I already have tons of facial issues X.X). So I got one with SPF 50+




















It's not pretty clear in the image (unfortunately) but when you first put it, there's a lavender color in the cream, but when you rub it, the colors goes and has a nice soft slight floral scent to it.





















I also bought body spray (body mist, or as it's called shower cologne). It's in honey suckle & smells s0o0oo sweeet! However, it's not the overwhelming sweetness that I'm attracted to. It's a soft sweetness that can be used in summer~ They have another one (I don't remember it but it's pinkish-purple) but that's exhaustingly sweet and the scent goes away in an hour! The honey suckle stayed for more than 6 hours!! That's a first for me~



















Because I have The Face shop discount card, I am able to get two free masks! One is my favorite Tea Tree & Bergamot. It's really feels clean and fresh :)
They also gave me a Power Treatment Gel Mask- Whitening. The sales lady says it's good for my skin, so I'll let you know how it went.







































An hour ago, I finished a drawing I started last week:
























This is Raina, a member from a korean girl group After School/ Orange Caramel. They're promoting their digital track "Bangkok City." It's a k0o0ol song to dance to, like the kind of song you hear in a club :D

Tomorrow is Sunday again & I gotta go back to work again *sigh*. Why are the days going by fast? or is it that people believe that they need to finish things in a rush >.> it's getting annoying because I can't enjoy my weekend anymore~

Oh well. Have a good day/evening and be happy~
