This Is Ess

1. My favourite jewellery combo at the moment. Been wearing them all the time

2. Decided to lay out my nail polishes and see how far I've come. If you'd like to refresh your memory regarding my mission to get 100 nail polishes, click here. I think I've got about 60 now though to be honest, I might end up getting 150 nail polishes by the end of the year. Seems like I've been getting an average of 10 nail polishes every month. Loving my collection so far but still keen to experiment with different colours.

3. & 4.  "The Gunners" and "Am Arsenal FC Supporter" Any Arsenal fans out there? Cos they've infiltrated the Kenyan monetary system.

5. Oh my Lord, in all honesty this story deserves an entire post by itself but here we go anyway. So I'm sitting my desk at the office when one of my colleagues asks whether I saw the dead chameleon that was next to where I parked my car. Of course I hadn't so he brought it in. Doesn't it look like a fossil from years ago? It was all dried up and very dead. That, I can promise you. Anyway, what was even creepier was when a couple of hours later out of NOWHERE, this fat, long lizard walked across my desk. Fattest bugger ever. I couldn't concentrate for the rest of day waiting for a komodo dragon to fall from the sky. After talking about my traumatic incident on twitter someone even asked whether I worked for National Geographic! Too many encounters with odd creatures in one day I tell ya.

6. I broke my nail. :(

7. My brother and I contemplated getting this fake rubber bug for my mother as her birthday present. We agreed that given the possibility that she may have a heart attack, we probably shouldn't.

8. & 9.  After seeing this tutorial at Cosmetic Cupcake I knew I had to give watermelon nails a go. They didn't come out as pretty as hers (obviously) but it was a pretty decent first attempt, wouldn't you say? Are you keen on nail art? It's been something I've gotten more and more interested in lately.
