White eyeliner is the secret

Here’s something I learned from the fabulous David Paris. To look bright-eyed and to open up your eyes a little more, after covering the dark circles under your eyes with your concealer and putting on light shimmery eyeshadow over your lids, use white liner pencil to line your waterline. Then as you normally would, apply black liner (kohl pencil works best for this, in my opinion) along your lower lash line from the outer corner of your eye halfway to the center. Then apply the white liner lightly over it, and blend it well for it to appear slightly more natural. Repeat with your upper lash line. Take into consideration the shape of your eye and the slant. Finish the look with volume mascara.

A suitable normal everyday look and perfect for the morning after a night of hard partying.

Kittens on their way

March 27, 2008 by Freddy

My cat is gonna get into labor soon, woo! I don’t know when exactly but from all the symptoms she’s showing, it should be within the next 2 days. I can’t wait to have little pussies (hahah!) running around the house because however bad your day gets, kittens never fail to make it better.

Harder, better, faster

I am so addicted to this video.

I call the right one! Tell me you love it.

Behind bars

March 20, 2008 by Freddy

I just finished watching Louis Theroux’s documentary film called ‘Behind Bars’ and I absolutely enjoyed it. It’s a documentary about life in prison, the politics that happens behind the giant fence/wall and what other activities goes on behind the bars.

Anyone else feel like prison is such an intriguing place or it just me? I mean I’ve always been a big fan of prison movies and tv shows like Oz, Prison Break, Shawshank Redemption, American History X etc. and I have always thought of prison to be an interesting thing to experience. Different but interesting. I’m not saying that I actually want to be sentenced but just to stay there for the weekend, like a hotel. I also have a penchant for war and army movies. Go figure out what the two have in common.

I apologize to you readers for not posting any substantial entries lately. I do have some rather controversial issues I would like to discuss but I haven’t had the time to sit and write properly. And I got some new material I gotta film as I am also an active member of the youtube community. Don’t want me to lose my subscribers now do we? Which by the way, I think you all should also subscribe to, accordingtofreddy.

But yea, you really should watch the Louis Theroux video. You’ll love it!

Bobby, gimme more!

Bobby Newberry feat. Blake McGrath dancing to Britney’s Gimme More.

I’m gonna try to recreate this dance just for the heck of it and film it when I get the chance because I think it is a fantastic and fresh routine and I don’t have the mental capability to choreograph something for myself at this point.

Damn, aren’t they just amazing? Notice the way they fabulously strut at the start of the dance? And I get told I gotta stiffen my walk a little. Phuh!

Domestic goddess in the making

March 16, 2008 by Freddy

Does anyone know where I can find a place for me to do t-shirt printings? I got some hot designs I would love to get printed on tank tops so I would really appreciate it if you could help me. It has to be top quality printing though, none of those hideous glossy ones that fades after one wash.

I have decided. Since I am lacking a social life here in Brunei, I have decided to make use of my free time learning new skills instead of watching DVDs and reading celebrity gossip websites all the time. I am already learning gymnastics and trying to do the splits to broaden my limits when it comes to dancing and other things, if you know what I mean. Hahah! My back is currently aching like crazy and I got bruises and grass burns from it. I also plan to learn dressmaking which is something I have always wanted to do but never got the chance to do so because my highschool didn’t have home ec. studies. I’m kinda waiting and hoping someone will get me a good sewing machine for my birthday in 3 weeks. Another thing I will be trying to learn is baking even though I’m not a big fan of cakes and cookies. But it is still a useful skill to have.

I am so going to turn into a domestic goddess and make the best life partner ever! Anyone would be damn lucky to have me.

Anyway as promised, here is the video of my dance performance. I had to edit 3 videos into this one, 2 from the final show and 1 from rehearsal because the light technician messed up our lighting during the final performance. But yea, hope you like it.

Maneuvers in the dark

March 15, 2008 by Freddy

I know I promised a video but because I have 2 videos of the dance, I have to do some editing to combine both into one. One of them is clear but really dark because the lighting that night was horribly disappointing and the other taken using a camera phone has a poorer quality but isn’t as dark as the other one. Plus, I have been distracted with learning gymnastics and That 70’s Show boxset, I’m trying my best to fit in video editing into my schedule. Ehehe!

I do have more pictures though courtesy of Mr. Chee.

Why people insist on decorating stages with plants, I have no idea. It’s tacky and ugly and ruined what would’ve been amazing photos otherwise.

Dance rehearsal

March 10, 2008 by Freddy

Had dance rehearsals today and let me tell you, being back on stage performing in front of a crowd gave me such a high. Our dance performance looked great but there are still bits we need to work on by Tuesday. But I am really happy and very proud of it.

Here are some photos to tease you, courtesy of Shuk Chee.

Get the real deal

If I see another person sporting a fake Louis Vuitton purse, I swear I’m gonna kill myself!
