Something's missing
It's getting warm in Taiwan. So today, for the 1st time in months, I ditched the leggings. All of a sudden, my clothes look boring, my legs look naked... something is missing. It was then I realized how much I have relied on leggings to jazz up my boring office wear. A pair of leggings in differet colour or print changes the entire look. Now I have to wait till the next leggings season, provided that I'm still in Taiwan to enjoy it.

Edgy over Sappy
An sad love song with an edge. I really like it.
Give me this over the sappy you-don't-love-me-amymore-so-i-lie-down-one-corner-and-cry-beautifully-while-dying-of-sadness/some sort of terminal illness aka Fish Leong type songs anytime.

Moon Influences
Thanks to Cindy, I am now hooked on astrology. In the past I've never believed in astrology - I'm a libra & I can only identify with half the libra traits. So to me astrology is crap.
AND THEN...
I was educated on the Moon Influences.
To know more about your Moon, find out what is your time of birth. Then you can input the data in this website http://astro.click108.com.tw/ (chinese!) & you can get your entire astrology analysis - where is your sun, your moon, your mars, venus etc etc. The Taiwanese are totally into this by the way. They devote entire talkshows into astrology.
And back to the Moon
In astrology, the Moon is indicative of personality, individuality and the unconscious. It represents instinctive reactions and the side of an individual that will respond to a given situation without prior thought or consideration. In many respects, the Moon personality is one which a person keeps hidden, it's an individual's inner core.
I'm a Libra with my moon in Capricorn. The traits of such a combination are incredibly accurate:
> The Capricorn Moon is an unemotional Moon, rarely exhibiting feelings in an outward manner.
> Nonetheless, the Capricorn Moon is ambitious and eager to learn, usually putting such knowledge to excellent use.
> ...a self-sufficient Moon which has difficulty in expressing spontaneous emotions.
> ...conservative, competitive and rigid regarding feelings.
>....desires control...ambitious thoughts being the driving force...and material success is extremely important.
> .... invariably displays a cool exterior and is very difficult to predict
> ...boundless energy, a lack of control in certain life areas and oftentimes, trouble with the opposite sex.
> ... enduring, brave and do not shrink from less-than-pleasant tasks, if a sense of duty is perceived.
> There may be a tendency toward shyness in some individuals in which case, they are apt to be reserved and not given to spontaneous outbursts of emotion.
The inherent tendencies of Libra & the Capricorn are contradictory to one another:
Libra is essentially outgoing and unrestrained while Capricorn is restrictive and exhibits an abundance of seriousness.
The most accurate of them all:
Hence, a Libra native governed by a Capricorn Moon less like the typical social animal associated with Libra characteristics. Still, this does produce a very warm and reliable personality and these individuals do come across well to others, though not particularly extroverted.
The traits I haven't been able to identify with as a Libra are "Charming", "Sociable", "Out-going". These are not traits that I typically show to others. YET, I know I have these traits deep inside me, but I only display them to people I know well.
Now I know, it's that darn moon in Capricorn.
Self-discovery is always fun.

The M Rules
Ok for a start... thank you to all my friends. The past few mths have been tough. Now things are more stable, at least for the next 3 mths. So....
I HAVE BEGIN SHOPPING AGAIN
For a start, I am official a MAQuillAGE fan. Was at the mall & passed by "live" makeover session by the jap makeup artist. 5 mins later I was pulled on stage & the makeup artist was telling all the colours that would be "perfect" for me.

3D Face Creator - suppose to give me killer cheekbones jaw line aka Angelina Jolie. well one can always dream...
Neo Noble eye palette:"so suitable for a stylish lady like YOU!!" gushes the beauty advisor...
Verdict:
- I don't look anything like Angelina Jolie & my hint of a double chin is still there BUT my face definitely look more "3D"
- I now wear stunning eyeshadow to work everyday... It's so easy to use that I actually bother!
- Best of all, they costs only SGD46 each & thrill they bring me? Priceless!!
