Things Children Say #2

Overheard a boy telling his friends rather seriously: By the age of 35 I'll be married with kids.
Toddler misbehaves and another toddler caught him.
(Holding up a pretend phone and calling another teacher): Hello teacher, ___ is doing *mumbles mumbles* okay bye bye.

The children would have to pay me money for drying their hair.
They would just tap my hand or swipe my hand if they decide to use credit card.
The first boy paid 100 dollars.
Me: (drying the second boy's hair) Everyone has to pay me 100 dollars. Wow your hair is long.
First boy: What about me? (This boy has really short army cut hair)
Me: Okay you can pay me 50 dollars.

A girl was looking at my water bottle covered in Super junior, EXO, SHINee and ZEA pictures.
Girl: Who are they?
Me: Handsome? Which is handsome?
Girl: (points at Hyungsik)
Me: (points at another photo of Hyungsik) This one handsome?
Girl: (looks closely) No. (Points to photo of Sungmin below) This one is also handsome. (Looks at pictures again) Are there any girls?
Me: Nope, they are all boys. Why? Do you see a girl?
Girl: (points to a photo of Baekhyun)
Me: (laughs) That's a boy! And he has the same birthday as me! (Looks at the girl on my other side) You know it's like you and your twin. Both of you have the sqme birthday right? Yes, this guy and I we are not twins.

Haha. Everyday with these children, I'm going to have tons of such posts with the funny things they say. It's so ridiculous sometimes I don't know whether I should laugh or be angry with them. Haha. I'll be working until the end of November. Time passes pretty quickly here. Hehe.

Me: (To a boy) We recorded the song yesterday after you went home.
Boy: Huh how?
Me: We recorded whoever who was there but we need to record again later because they were too slow.
Boy: (looks down and shakes his head)

Boy: (holds up his bottle) Why does my bottle keep leaking? 
Me: Let me check if it's closed tight. (turns bottle upside down and water leaks out) Oh, I think you should tell your mum. 
Boy: Yeah and buy a new bottle. (looks down) *SIGH* Have to spend money again.

New Etude House Eyeshadows

I know I shouldn't but I ended up getting a few new eyeshadows from Etude House again >< Sue me. Haha. Mabel언니 went to Korea and she helped me to get a few items. Since I already bought the lip products from qoo10 with Zann, I mainly got eyeshadows from Korea. And they're crazily cheap there! I think when Mabel언니 got them, they were on sale and had about 10% discount of each of the items. Hehe. Nobody loves discounts like me! 

So in total I got 4 new eyeshadow colours from Korea and one from the local sale. Hehe.


I think individually they cost less than 10 bucks from Korea but locally the cupcake ones cost about 17 bucks each and the single coloured ones cost about 3 to 5 bucks from Korea and 9 bucks locally >< The textures of these eyeshadows are different but I'm pretty happy with how these look when I use them. I'll talk about each individually ^^ 


Look at My Eyes BR401
I actually liked this colour after watching a makeup tutorial on youtube on a fall makeup look. I'm even happier with it after trying it out! So far I've used it 3 days in a row! Hehe. It isn't very pigmented as compared to the Naked palette so I do have to apply quite a bit more to get the colour showing but if I'm using it as a base colour, it turns out nicely and it actually has a little orangey bronzy undertone. 


Look at My Eyes OR202
The above brown eyeshadow goes well with this orange eyeshadow. Once again, I decided to get this colour after watching a makeup tutorial on youtube and this orange shade goes very well with browns. I was really happy with how it turned out. Initially I thought the orange would stand out a lot, but in fact it was actually quite natural even before adding the brown. 


Look at My Eyes Cafe PK003 
And this pink! Hehehe. I actually was looking for something similar to this for quite some time. I got the inspiration from GG's Baby G pictorial where Seohyun had really nice hot pink eye makeup. But so far the pinks I have, they aren't as hot pink as the one she had on. So finally I found it, and I'm not disappointed. Hehe. 


Sweet Recipe Cupcake Eyes PK001 
I got this well just because I like how it looks. I've yet to try it out but so far I think these two colours are easy to blend as they aren't so pigmented but more shimmery than ever. It's suitable for daily use as it doesn't stand out too much as compared to the previous one which is a matte pink shade. 


Sweet Recipe Cupcake Eyes PP501 
This pink and purple shade looks really pretty and elegant. Hehe. I really like these cupcake colours as they're very sparkly. 

I've not tried out many looks with these eyeshadows yet but I'll blog about it soon if I've a new look to share! I was quite happy with the EXO Sehun's sparkly eyes look I tried out previously. I haven't had any other makeup look requests so until then~ ^^

The Things Children Say #1

Me to a toddler: (points to my water bottle covered with pictures of SJ, SHINee and EXO) Do you know who this is? 
Toddler: (smiles happily) Uncle. 

Me: Okay, I'm going to read this story. 
Boy: Teacher Fidelia, the pirate will find the crew in the end and Santa Claus will come. 
Me: Um... Okay I haven't read this story before so let's read it together. 

Me: We're playing the quiet game so I don't want to hear any talking. 
Children: (total silence)
10 minutes later.
Me: We are going to the music room and the quiet game will end there. 
On the way there.
Children: (whispers) Are we still playing the quiet game? 

Things I say during nap time to children who are not sleeping or playing:
  • If you don't need your mattress, I'm going to take it away.
  • Close your eyes, I don't want to see your eyeballs. 
Child and I carrying a bunch of things and the classroom door is closed. 
Child: Oh no! How?
Me: Wait...
Child: (Shouts super loudly) HELLO GUYS HELP US!
Me: Opens door calmly. 
Child: (skips into classroom) Hello girls~ I'm back~ 

A collection of funny things children say at work. There are many stories that I have but unfortunately I can't remember everything so therefore I decided to write it down every time children say something funny. Hehehe.

EXO Sehun's Sparkle Eyes Makeup

Finally decided to record a short makeup video on this look that Sehun had on cos Vanessa requested it. Haha. Initially I wasn't going to record a video or anything but decided to record one anyway as it would be easier to show her. Honestly, it isn't easy to record a makeup tutorial video as editing is really a pain in the butt. And there were many factors to consider. I don't have a HD camera so I ended up just using the front camera of my tablet. 

So, this is the look she wanted to learn. 


It isn't very difficult to achieve and I managed to get it using 2 shades of brown. Here's the products I used.

#5 Kpop Song of the Week

It's Friday again and that's means it's time for another Kpop song of the week post! My Kpop song recommendation for this week is a song that is cheerful and cute! But maybe it's not as popular as I think it is. 

This week's Kpop song of the week is...

NS Yoonji's 또 보고싶어 (I wanna see you again) 


지금 널 듣고싶어~
