Frivolous Update of Sorts

By icyabstract · August 6, 2012 · 10 Comments ·

Hello again, I disappeared off here for a little while.

Work has consumed me and work-aside, I have been 'laborously' (only because it's not exactly that labourous) customizing my new device to take over the world.

If you follow me on twitter, I have officially swapped over to the Android. Finally.

Alls good and nothing has changed much as I have a slight inkling of how Android works, thanks to my LG stint from a few years back but there are some discoveries to be made with all the updates and such.

Being my OCD self, I had to get a case and 'beautify' the outlook of my phone before I started using it so here's how my SIII looks now.

Sidetracking but can I just gasp at the quality of Samsung Note's pictures? I used the boy's phone to take a shot of my phone and the quality is kinda awesome.

This make-shift phone get-up is sitting on the cutesy, girly side but I have some 'simpler' cases coming my way and a super cute dust plug I can't wait to use.

Just wondering, is anyone else as OCD about this as I am? You must have a phone cover before you start using your phone?


That aside, I will have some stuff for you guys soon!

Not too much makeup in terms of LOTDs since my makeup life has been a bore lately.

I have been a little lazy with my contacts and would rather sleep that extra 15 minutes and head out with glasses instead. The weekends have also been demoted to makeup-less periods instead of the color experimentation period it once was.

Regardless, I still have posts covering hauls, some makeup mentions, skincare, bodycare and more coming up soon!

I have the pictures taken since it is another OCD of mine to snap pics before I use anything. All I need now is to find time to sit down and write them all up.

Bare with me a little through this barren blog period!


Alrightey, all that aside, I finally caught Batman! I don't want to spoil it for anyone who hasn't seen it but I really liked the show. It's a lot darker and more storyline driven though what really got me most hyped up was the end of it. I was a little anti-Anne Hathaway playing Cat woman and while I still don't think she was the perfect choice, I think she did a good job.

And a random statement... I knew that good guy was that. I knew it! He just looks it! Okay, I'll leave that ambiguous statement there. Those who have seen the show would know what I am talking about!


Until next time, thanks for sticking around and I promise proper updates soon!

I'm still on the look out for Android apps so if you have good task ones / twitter apps etc, do recommend!

I think all (most?) beauty bloggers have the OCD of snapping before using! Even if it's something like polish where people can't see if you've used I also will wanna snap first! heh! Laughing out loud & SIII cover is adorable! I love the charm! <3

You are not alone as an OCD! I'm the same.. It is a trait of a micro managing woman.. At least I think that's what it is ;p it's like you need to ensure something's perfect and fit for use according to u before actually using it.

I took most of my blog pics using samsung note... amazing quality!!! How SIII? The phone make me wanna get a samsung camera! (lolx)

Agree with above, think most of us.. "MUST" take a pic first before touching the products.

his size was a pretty good giveaway XD but but but, he may not be _that_ entirely - there's another variation of _that_ which is a little more mature! and in different color. ; D

Haha taking pics before using the products, I ended up having a pile of untouched products at home!
Some android apps that I like are Seemic and Astrid Task Smiling I still prefer Iphone but well I lost it :/ Praying that iphone5 camera quality would be as good as samsung note. Your picture looks good!

elizaheartsmakeup: Aha yes I think over time we have all cultivated that OCD habit! And yeap it was waaaay too cute to pass up regardless of how girly, cutesy and teenish this cover is X)

She Shops Makeup: Yes! Omgosh I have a habit of extreme micro-managing when it comes to something I am in-charge of / own. It drives people nuts but it's for the best! haha!

everbluec: Ohh wow I didn't know! So jealous of the awesome camera and the screen is honestly huge enough to be camera-ish! I haven't taken many photos with my current phone. Shall try one day and see if it's as good!

evonne: Haha yes, his size too! But I know in the comic's he isn't actually suppose to be _that_ but the on-screen plot seems to be making him _that_. So oh well, cannot wait to find out! And lol at our ambiguous statements!

icefrost: Same! I have a 'touched' pile and 'untouched' pile or what I like to call the 'Pending' area. Aww so far I still prefer the iphone in terms of familiarity and all but I'm trying to make myself like the android too! I like the customization involved but it feels a bit windows-ish...

x3ASweetAffair: Thanks! Smiling Haha I know I'm still getting the hang of it and telling myself it would all be worthwhile once I'm more familiar with the OS, especially autocorrect!
