Eyelid thingies

Online 9 Comments »

So much work to do, but GUESS WHAT I’M DOING, I’m randomly clicking links and surfing LJs. Eck. BUT I DID STEAL APPROPRIATE some very interesting stuff. This probably is more a LJish post, but eh, it’s long.

For one thing, this video on making single eyelids into double (does that sound odd or what?). I was born with single eyelids but around 5ish, I gradually got double eyelids, I DON’T KNOW HOW, it just happened. But no surprise as both my parents are double eyelidded people. Anyway, I know that alot of Asian people don’t have single eyelids and frankly I don’t see how that’s like any more “ugly” than double eyelids although many may insist on it. Maybe because Western eyes are considered pretty? Well I think that coloured irises (other than brown that is) is prettier and more striking than other eyelid folds, but eh.

Anyway, the video basically tells you how to use the stuff to make another fold. In Japanese. I have no idea what they say, but I really hope that it includes “be careful not to poke out your eyes with that crazy looking fork thing!”. Because really, that looks dangerous. Imagine if you just woke up, already late and the thought “shit, I hafta get more eyelid folds! =__=” occur to you, and in your semi-awake state, your slightly shaky, uncoordinated hands fumble with the fork… doesn’t take much to imagine what could happen! o__o I suppose a bleeding eye could be attractive to some.

I mean, it’s bad enough with the more innocous mascara stick, fark man, I’m so not made out to use stick-like objects near my eye, TWICE ALREADY I’ve accidently stabbed my eye with it (but not directly thank goodness). Once cos my hands shook a little and missed my lashes and went a little further, and the other time when I didn’t know that I was swaying a little… and swayed forward. >_< Anyway, onto this other “IQ quiz” I nabbed, there are 4 questions.

Please read the question and answer immediately (Don’t take your time answering… ok?)
Let’s see if you’re really smart (or stupid)!

Are you ready??
GO!! (scroll slowly…)

Question one:

You’re in a race right now. After much hard work, you finally pass the person at the second position.
Which position are you at right now??


Answer:
If you answered first, then you’re completely wrong!!
If you passed the former second person, then you take his position, which is… second.

—-

Question 2:
(When answering, don’t take more time than what you did for the first question! You’ve got to do it quickly!!)

If you keep running and running, and finally pass the last person, at which position are you right now?


Answer:
If you’re the second last person, then you’re wrong again!!

How can you possibly pass the last person?

He’s already the last… then how can you be behind him??? (Unless you’re the first!)

(See, you’re starting to feel a bit stupid, aren’t you…)

Question 3:
Mental calculation question… (You’re not allowed to use any paper, pen or calculator)

1000 added to 40… (okay…?) then add 1000…
…plus 30… then add 1000 more…
…then plus 20 again… and now add 1000 again…
…and add 10…
How much is the total?? (Answer immediately!!)

Answer:
5000???

Sigh… wrong again… get a calculator and see…

The right answer is 4100… you idiot!

You’re really not doing well, huh…
Okay! Let’s give you a last chance!

Question 4, English question:
Mary’s father has five daughters:
1. Nana
2. Nene
3. Nini
4. Nono
What is the name of the fifth daughter?

Answer:
Nunu?

NO! Of course not.
Her name is Mary. Read the question again.

Ahahahaha well I got all of them wrong, but it was still fun. ALTHOUGH for Q3, I got 4360. O_o And to top off the randomness, checking my tracker, someone has found this blog via google and the search terms “girls obsessed “with” bishies”. Why yes you’ve come to the right place. :D

Chocolate

Musings 3 Comments »

Dear neglected blog:

There is much fun in eating melted chocolate, still within it’s shiny plasticy/metallic wrapping (after removing wrapper of course ^^;). I was originally intended to reharden the TimeOut chocolate bar in the fridge, but delicate squishing of fingers indicated that the heat today had killed whatever chances it has of become the solid, crispy bar of chocolate covered wafer (covered chocolate) it was supposed to be. The fridge would only reharden it into an ugly clump, most likely to stick more to the wrapping than the wafers.

Unpeeling it as carefully as possible, to delay the inevitablity of getting it all over my fingers, I was greeted with the sight of thick, sweet chocolate smeared everwhere inside, and the two distinct lengths of wafers inside.

There was only one solution. With an expression best summed up as “^_____^” I proceeded to lick all of the chocolate off.

A slow but very enjoyable process. There was only one hinderance. The chocolate around the edges of the wrapper was most stubborn, making much effort to not be consumed. Until I realised it was most probably because of the glue around the edges that had held the wrapper together was obviously covered with chocolate too. Eh well, still good (I swear, you can barely taste the glue :P).

Mmm chocolate. The Ultimate Comfort Food.

Yours sincerely,
Me
