The Girl In High Heels

So finally, i am very very very free and can blog anytime i want now :-D Left Uni after 4 years and i must tell you, it is not easy when you are attached to so many people there. So yeah, coming back to the title of this post, wanted to share my face mask/face pack ingredients with all of you. I have been using this face mask for quite sometime now (I don't only depend on this, i have my daily creams as well). This face pack is not to make your complexion fairer or whatsoever it is just to get a silky skin and a glowing complexion. It works on me and i am extremely happy with the results. You'll be needing: Sandalwood powder, Kasturi Manjal, Saffron and milk. I also used rose water. Both are fine. Choose either. Let the saffron soak in the milk for about half an hour and you will see the milk turn yellow in colour. Then add in one spoon of sandalwood and turmeric make a paste out of it. Apply around your neck and face and wash it off once it dries off. I use it once everyd...

Salangai Pooja is a first stage performance, performed by a group or single (solo performance) by students who have learned all 108 adavus (Basic steps that all classical dancer must know) and 5-7 basic songs. (This depends on your teacher/guru/master). During Salangai pooja, prayers is done by placing the salangai in from of Lord Nadaraja to get his blessing (Any other god is also acceptable). The salangai will be tied by the dancers respective gurus and the dancers will perform live for the first time in front of thousands of audience. After the salangai pooja is completed, the dancers exit from beginner stage and proceed to advanced level to prepare themselves for arengetram.The dancers can now also start performing in stages and temples. Before the salangai pooja, dancers are not allowed to tie the salangai nor perform in front of large crowds. Costs to do a salangai pooja and arengetram depends on how grand you want it to be. Most of the dancers will do their salangai p...

She could remember that night where he crossed his limits. She was trying very hard not to break down but she failed. Painful words tore her apart. Despite being together for all this years, he could still not understand her. All she wanted was love. As the words came out she felt a knife poking through her heart. She could not believe that she wasn't his priority when he was hers. They needed some time apart.  "A couple of years perhaps", he said. "Fine, if that is what you want", she said. Without thinking any further she agreed everything  he said, like a fool. A fool who is head over heels with this man. And is willing to do anything. Years went by. They did keep in touch. Both of them went separate parts to fulfill their dreams. She: You know, you are still the one.  He: I still need more time. I have so many commitments. So many issues to settle. And she waits and waits. And waits. P/S: All of my posts have nothing to do with me. I...

So, why does a Ceylonese bride wear a veil? I myself don't know much about the tradition. I wasn't even aware of this until a few posts came up on Facebook. I don't any reason behind all the tradition that happens in a Ceylonese wedding. In a typical Ceylon wedding, the grooms sits on the manavarai (Canopy) through out the wedding. The brides comes in after the "rakshabandham" of the groom. Trust me, i don't even know what the hell is this. So apparently the bride and groom cannot see each other until he (groom) hands the bride her "Koorai" saree (wedding saree). That is the reason why a Ceylon bride wears a veil. The whole cost of the wedding falls under the bride's responsibility. Remember my earlier post about the gold melting ceremony? That is purely the responsibility of the groom's side.

An evening walk by the beach with sounds of the waves. An evening she always wanted with him. His touch, his smell, his presence, his voice still lingers around her. He was the only one that mattered to her. She was head over heels with him. She always wonder what will her life be without him? Is she better off without him? All those thoughts gave her sleepless nights. But the joy she gets when he is around her is priceless. He made her a better person. Of all the people she had meet, he is the only one she was attached too. Suddenly reality hit her really hard. He was too good for her. Will he actually fall in love with me she thought? She was just an ordinary girl. No one can love me she thought. ***Pat at the back*** . She turned and he was there. He: Just came? She: Yes He: Let's walk by the beach.  They walked and walked with waves hitting them. watching the clear water kiss the sands. She was on top of the world with the man she loved the most, watching the sunset. Wh...

Lessons learned for the good :) 2014 the year that i will graduate (fingers crossed).

Anyways  enjoy your new year's eve. Stay safe and don't get drunk :-P

1) Choose any medium or dark shade of pink colour nail polish and paint your nails from bottom. Keep enough space to paint a green and white line. (Depending how long are your nails) 2) Use any thin brush to draw a line at the top of your nails using a medium or dark green nail colour. Let it set for about 2 minutes. 3) Below the green colour nail polish, use a white nail colour to draw the same line and let it set as well. 4) Finally, use a black colour nail polish to randomly draw dots on top of the pink shade which indicates watermelon seeds.
