Manicure & Pedicure

This is my 1st manicure and pedicure ever, and the experience? If you care, haha, read here (titled Bad Mama). By the way, if you dont know, my name is Rachel ;P

Today I went to visit Selena and her new born, Istra, again. Istra is super adorable!! So soft and tiny, her skin is silky smooth. o...I love her, she is so cute that I want to put her arms and feet in my mouth, haha. Istra is only 12lbs, but my arms still got tired after holding her for a while. Istra has blue eyes and dark hair, but apparently, Selena told me that babies' eye & hair color will change as they grow older. Selena's hunsband had dark hair when he was a baby, but then it turned to white blonde when he was 2, and he is still a blondie now. Also, Jessica told me that she got blue eyes when she was a baby, but now she has brown eyes...isn't that weird?



I am going to Chris's (Jon's friend) wedding this Sat, that's why I wanted to have my nails done. This will be the 1st wedding I will ever attend too, and I am worried that it will be an unpleasant expereince (too).....coz Jon and I cannot go there together, and we will not eat in the same table. Since Jon is the groom's best man, according to their tradition, Jon has to sleep at the groom's house the night before, and he will have to eat in the family table too.

The wedding venue is a golf course which is about an hour away from Toronto. So, this is what will happen, Jon's friends will come pick me up, and the whole day, from 3pm to late night, I will be hanging around with them, if Jon is busy...

I still dont know which dress I am gonna wear! I have a black one and a yellow one, I bought them for the wedding. The black one, it's very cute, but heard that shouldn't wear black in weddings...the yellow dress is good but a bit plain and I will be the only yellow person who wears yellow there...hopefully, no one will notice this significant resemblance, haha. I am complaining about everything, have worries and anxiety, but I am still looking forward to having fun in the wedding tho. I will let you know how it goes ;)

i got my pedicure last week. though unpleasant, but finally i got my feet nice and plainly painted. I asked for artistic patterns on both of them, but it will cost me $360 in total!!!! --------------------Sorry then, i gave up.
My classmate did hers in Shenzhen and costed only $100 with patterns! what can i say?

Black? no. unless u have glittering jewels to wear on, otherwise "Black" is not a good choice for occasion like this.
Yellow? hope it is bright/silky yellow, OR, in 雪紡 material. u know, yellow and green are not "the best" choice for Asian.
Maybe u should ask the color theme of the wedding party... if it is yellow, it will be fine lar.
But then, pink and violet are "universal" colors for wedding parties. u can try ~ :p

My French manicure and pedicure costed me $45CAD (about $280 HKD i guess), which is not that bad, but they are just not professionally done tho, they dont look good up close.
Last night we went out with our friends. I saw Ema got some perfect looking French nails, so I asked her where did she get her French manicure done, she told me they are stick-ons she got from drup-mart. I was amazed! I am gonna get some sticks-ons today, haha.
As for the dress, I still haven't decided on which dress. Unfortunately, I dont have any pastel color dress. O well, I will be fine anyways, I will not be the center of the attention afterall.
when I come back to HK, We have to go to Shenzhen together and have our nails done beautifully, ok? ;p
