Trip to Alnwick Castle

This is the castle where they shoot scenes from Harry Potter and Robin Hood...
The castle is actually owned by the Percy family and it's very famous because *ehem* they shot Harry Potter there..

I took loads of pictures but I can't possibly put them all in this blog page..(I think it will load really slow)
It was a very nice day..the sun was shining..birds were singing.. but it was very very cold...Luckily I wore the big jacket I brought from home..

I'll summarize the trip..^^

We set our journey from Sunderland city campus to Alnwick at 845am and arrived there at 1000am.
There were 2 sets of bus and the trip cost GBP 21. It was worth it...the normal price is much more expensive than that..our ticket was for the castle and the garden. Some of the events were free but things like archery, you need to pay to play.

Our first stop was the guided tour of the castle by a very loud and eager gentleman~ >_< he even played with us..
He was talking about Sir Henry "Hotspur" who was a great knight

 After the tour, Ella and I went around the castle area as many places as we could...down here is a dragon statue at the Knight's Quest area, where people can wear medieval costumes and look and play around at what it was like during the medieval era..

Rwarrrr
 The Percy family has been here for over 700 years!

This is the dungeon where the displayed how the dungeon was like in the old days.. The cellar had some sound effect to made it seem like there was actually someone there...There was also the Lost Cellars tour but didn't have time to go that tour.
poor doll

 After that we went to to the Roots and Shoots Garden where you can grow your very own veggies..there were quite a lot of bees around since they were a lot of flowers...

 Then, we went to the Alnwick Garden...you come in, and this is what you will definitely set eyes on this first.
a lot of children were playing near the fountain with a toy truck or something
 If you go further up, you'll get to the flower garden...Welcome~
I took a lot of pictures here but there were all flowers which I want to show to my mummy later.. she'll love it

Our last tour was the tour of the Poison Garden where some of the plants grown there can actually kill you if the drug is released in some way...we saw some of the plants that we have only read in books and notes like atropa belladonna, papaver somniferum and nicotine leaves to name a few.

Then we grab some late lunch and went back home at 430pm and reached Sunderland at 600pm...
just thought to write here before I forget all about it later.

Dark Circle Be Gone!

After so many years doing everything to cover up my dark circles, I've finally found something that does the job~ and does it well...

It's the...

Skin Food Salmon Dark Circle Concealer(RM46.90)

 The packaging is soo cute~ ^^
This #2 Salmon Beige


 Even the plastic bag is cute~ 


This is a picture I took 
Can you tell which one is concealed..it should be obvious but if you can't tell I'll give you a hint
( "write eye" )

I'm falling in love with this product <3

Lip Tints ^^~*

Love them~<3
The reason is because of their staying power~ Even if you apply them in the morning, They will still be on your lips in the evening..yes,even after you lick your lips the whole day~ ^_^

I'm going to post some of my favorite tints~

Etude House Miss Tangerine Lip Tint (RM 20+)
 It's very watery and it smells like orange ^^
But be careful when applying because you might look like you've just drank 1 huge bottle of orange soda.


Holika Holika Holy Berry Tint in #2 Raspberry (RM 23.90) 
 I like this one a lot because it's not too strong and it looks natural~ but if you prefer a more intense color then #1 Strawberry is your berry ^^

The Face Shop Lovely Me:ex in Peach (RM30+)
This one works well as an undertone for your more intense colored lip tints but it works well alone as well ^^

This is a picture of me wearing TFS Milky Tint and HH Holy Berry Tint~
but you can't really see the pink tint because I only lined a lot more to the innerside of my lips.. plus I can't capture it using the camera but it's quite pretty in real life though~ ^_^

Just a tip..if your lips chap easily, be sure to apply lip balm before your tint~

The long awaited; Heavy Tools Bicycle Shop

It's Swot week now..or I prefer to call it revision week~ 
Finally it's the end of my first semester and I'm hoping I'll make it out alive..

Since I'll probably don't have much time to go online later, I'll write about the shop because I wrote in my last post that I would...and I will.

Okay...the shop is located at SS14 near proton.. my friend and I went there using a bus..emm..I think it was U47.. Don't really remember anymore...sorry~ We had to cross a few road but luckily they weren't that many cars. We got to the shop, it's a very simple shop and they were very nice..^_^ 
 When I came in the shop, the first thing I saw was a very beautiful blue bike with a rattan basket in front but the price was very beautiful as well...shockingly RM800+..kekekeke..That was out...Then he showed me the bike that's very popular among students there and since that was the cheapest, I took it for RM269 (I think) /(-_-)\ what's wrong with my memory..[it's finals!!]...The good thing was that they offered to help send us back to the hostel with the bike...I was really thankful for that and that concludes my bike story...^_^//

My friend introduced me to this shop and I recommend it for students studying in Sunway, Monash or other nearby unis..^^ annyeong~
A map that helped us a lot >.<

Red...Love it ^^

   Happy Cycling~ vroooommm______________@@
