Ok, I’ll admit…the reason why I have not updated in ages is because…WORDPRESS IS FREAKING HARD TO USE. I’ve been so spoiled from Xanga, with the simplicity and watered down ease of blogging. Wordpress feels more like rocket science to me. Regardless, I have not left the blogging world. I simply took a long hiatus to find inspiration and time to blog. Yes I needed time. I was in the middle of moving and working on my business. Now that everything has settled down a bit, I can play around and figure out how this thing works.
I am also improvising this entry as I write, so bear with me as I try and make sense from this.
I recently moved, and the first few days I was furnitureless. Living in a furnished villa throughout my college years rendered me from acquiring my own pieces. So I happily slept on the floor with the remaining pillow I salvaged and my plushie to keep me company.
Speaking of company, I adopted Mr. Bun Bun, so I will be taking care of him now =) I don’t have Mia anymore, so I needed to find a softy cuddly creature to love! Mia already has a loving owner and I could not take her with me =( The Villa where I use to live included Mia, and she’s still living there…sigh…I’ll miss her making cameos in my videos.
Please, welcome Mr. Bun Bun. He needs extra love because he was living with a bunch of cats, and has grown fond of cat food. He refuses to eat anything else. Is that unhealthy for a rabbit to eat cat food? I would assume so. I bought fresh carrots, veggies and hay. He is slowly attempting to eat his native food. Bun Bun loves to watch TV, Family Guy this most! I think he has a thing for Meg.
If you have any tips on taking care of a bunny, please do let me know! I would much appreciate that.
I’ve been going broke these past two months. Buying new furniture, couches, mattresses, electronics, TV, computer and more. It can all add up. I looked at all my receipts from the past few weeks and nearly passed out.
I’m still seeking for the perfect dining table. Crates and Barrel carries beautiful sets, but they’re so expensive! I’m eating on cardboard boxes right now haha. No shame my friend.
I’ve also been obsessed with purchasing art pieces for my home.
20 minutes ago from writing this entry, I purchased these pieces.
I bought 2 sets of this real cool sculpture wall art. I wanted to paint something, but I literally have no time. Instead of buying a cheesy print (sorry to those who own a few), I decided on a 3 dimensional wall piece. It adds that extra substance to my living room. I opted on abstract because it leaves the viewers open to creating their own representation of the piece.
I also got this sweet rectangle abstract piece for my dining room. Beats the usual wine paintings right?
Ok, I’m going to finish this entry off. I’m going to reorganize my blog and relocate all my previous entries to the correct categories. That will take a good week or two.
I’m off to Hong Kong this weekend for work and leisure. I’m excited to try out authentic chinese food. I’m flying first class suite on Singapore airlines. I heard amazing things about it so I’m excited! For the hefty price, the experience better be out of this world! Haha.
You get your own private section. Besides the usual peanuts, you get world class gourmet meals prepared by chefs and as many glasses of Dom Perrier champagne, which I will gladly take because I loath flying.
And it magically turns into a bed. I wish Mr. Bun Bun could accompany me…unfortunatly he is not found of the air either.
You will definately see a beauty tutorial for this.
I’m going to head back to work (yes I work at practically every hour, but it pays off!) . I hope you enjoyed this…impromptu entry, I promise to play around with Wordpress more because I absolutely missed blogging. I’ve been going through withdrawals and rocking back and forth in corner.
I leave you with Mr. Bun Bun and yours truly. P.S excuse my makeup, I was playing aroung with IQQU’s new eyeshadows. It’s not out yet, I’m finalizing the formula to make sure it’s perfect!
Kindly,
Michelle
Hey girl! Glad to see you back! I’m with you on Wordpress. Not the most relaxing blogging experience. For bun bun, watch the fresh veggies. Too much isn’t good. Fresh kale one a day, fresh hay and a good pellet will keep his system moving well and make him happier and more energetic. We use oxbow brand products for our chinchillas and small animals. Check them out by googling them. There’s lots of information to help you out. They’re pricier then other foods but well worth it.
Good luck with the new place. Wall art looks fab! Take care in Hong Kong.
And still lmao about the rocking in the corner comment. Lol
Yaay! Don’t worry about Wordpress, if you need any help you can just shoot me an email
oo i miss your blogs. i’m still on xanga, and that’s how i found out about ur new post. ^_^
flying first class looks awesome! food in china/HK is amazing!!
YESSSS I always insist on flying SQ if I can help it. Nationalistic pride + comfort + all the stewardesses are pretty = I don’t have to look at big fat old women they have on United flights.
I really don’t think that cat food is good for your bunny, I don’t think they can process foods with fat. Just feed him a small amount of pellets and plenty of hay and fresh veges. Fruit is ok too but not too much as it has a lot of sugar in it i.e. apples. Have a look at this site if you need more info, the site may not look so good but the information is very useful: http://www.rabbit.org/
YAY for wordpress! =] I love wordpress too! I have been wondering where the posts were. Glad to see you back.
Hi! Welcome again to blogging! I have a bunny too and I can honestly say they are like dogs. You have to win their respect and pass time with them. Mine gets sleep while I’m touching her head, for example. And about food… Well, I don’t know how expensive is there the fruits, but here, in Spain, are affordable, so we give her carrots, pears, peaches or banans(that at least my bunny loves). You shouldn’t give them a lot of fruits, nor a complete piece, just a bit about 2 or 3 times a week. If you overfeed them with fruits or vegetables, then they’ll have a little bit o diarrhea, and we do not want that!!!!
About hay… IS TOO IMPORTANT!!!! because this will make your bunny has a good digestion (about eat its own excrement… That’s something normal^^ Bunnies must do this or can die, so don’t worry) and, also, with this they can even make their own warren, which I think is lovely!
I don’t know if you want to know something more about bunnies, but if you do, just ask!
Congratulations for your excelent work and your amazing videos!
P.D. I’d like to ask you some questions…. But have no reply
Anyway….. I wish you the best from Spain!
Yay, a blog from Michelle. That airline suite looks absolutely .. may I say… GANGSTA! XD Good luck with work and everything, you deserve the best! I can’t wait to read more entries from you. Take care, Michelle! I’ve always been a fan of you since Xanga. I was there when fashion confused you and Cakalusa made a mock entry of you. Good times.. Now seeing you here in this position amazes me. Be the best you can be and don’t let anything negative get to ya, gurlfran! Toodles!
HEY! i have a bunny that looks just like that except a lot older
I’ve had her for at least 7 years now
Some bunny tips I would give you are:
1. Don’t feed them too many carrots
carrots are like candy for rabbits
2. being asian my mom likes to feed my rabbit a bunch of asian vegetables
I don’t know what theyre called in english but its only greens that we feed her
(green leafed vegetables are fine to feed to rabbits, just not too much because it makes them pee a lot)
3. I trained my rabbit to run back to her cage when she needs to poo or pee
when you let your rabbit out to play and you see him or her poop, just pick her up and leave her in the cage for the rest of the day
eventually they’ll learn that thats their punishment
now my rabbit walks around freely in my house like a dog
4. rabbits love when you pet their heads
5. Play with your rabbit a lot!
if you ever see your rabbit do a strange jump,
it kind of looks like they have turrets syndrome, but don’t worry its good
its called a Binky when they jump like that
and it means theyre really happy
just youtube it if yo uwanna see examples of the jump
5. don’t pull their tails– it makes them pee when you do
well hope you have fun with your new bunny :3

Welcome back to the blogging world. I know what you mean about Wordpress. Ive got a WP blog and until today its still so difficult to understand, I agree with you about xanga being simple and easy to use i just wish xanga could upgrade the site. A rabbit that eats cat food huh thats a first for me to hear hehehehe i look forward to reading more of your tutorials. Hope you’ll have a safe journey, a good relaxation and retail therapy at HK. SIA flights I heard are awesome whether its first business or economy. ive never tried them but many friends vouch for it.
<3
Please don’t feed too many carrots. There are a lot of leafy greens bunnies love to eat. His diet should also be balanced with tons of HAY (only Timothy for adults NOT alfalfa!) as another commenter noted and a good quality pellet low in calcium (causes stones). I use Timothy Pellets for adult rabbits.
Here is a fantastic site to visit for more info or questions. It is a forum all about bunnies and there are TONS of advice for bunny health as well as funny quirks to read about other bunnies or just to learn more about your own bunnies weird habits and of course you can share pictures of your adorable bunny or look at some others!
I found it a saviour during my first months of bunny mommyhood.
http://www.binkybunny.com
If you take care of Mr. Bunbun you will find bunnies to be very similar to kitties! They have tons of personality but you do have to coax it out of them
Enjoy being a bunny mommy! I know you will take good care of him because you seem to be an animal lover!
Good luck with settling @ the new house, it is so exciting to be someplace new but I know how stressful it can be.
If you want a cool/nice dining table have you considered craigslist? Some people sell some really unique stuff w/ lots of personality. Something you could probably never find at a store (or at least not for that price).
hihi..i am from hong kong. for any equiry, feel free to drop me an email~
It’s good to have you back!
Aww, I have a bunny too. His name is Digby! I can’t believe you can’t bring Mia with you.
I am sure she misses you lots.
Cat food? !! ack! Cat food has ALOT of protein in it and bunnies can’t really digest protein that well. Make sure his diet is super high in fiber. You should also introduce him to timonthy hay pellets. 1/4 to 1/2 cup a day of that along with the fresh high fiber veggies and hay should be good. Hey, didn’t you have a bunny prior to this? I thought you did when you were still blogging in Xanga many moons ago.
Aww that’s so cute that your bunny can go to bed with you. My bunny refuses to let me pick him up. He’s terrified! He was never really handled the first year of his life because he was bred in a farm for the sole purpose of producing rabbit hair. :T Do you have any tips on how I can get my bunny used to me handling him? I’ve been googling this forever, but rabbits are so fragile! I am afraid to hurt him. Sometimes they can get so scared that they’ll do anything in their ability (including hurting themselves and breaking their spine) to avoid getting feeling like they are “caught”.
Hello! It’s so wonderful to have you back in the blogosphere =] The art decor truly look magnificent and intriguing. Have fun furnishing/decorating your place further!
Mr. Bun is too cute ^_^
Have a safe and wonderful trip.
it’s glad to seeing yr new blog^^

Hi!
Goddd is soo cute Mr. Bun Bun! and don’t worry about the furniture… all comes on the right time… i’ve never use wordpress but i think i may use it some time in the future… i really hope your flight can be awesome, i’ve heard a lot of things about that airline… cool really cool… i bet you’ll tell us more after your travel…
right now i’m actually at the office with a new way of make up thanks to you… it really has take the notices of everyone at my office… =)
thanks a lot! and keep with the awesome work!!!
Glad to see your blog back up! Good luck in HK! Try to enjoy yourself

Ann
Hope you enjoy your trip at Hong Kong and that you take some awesome pics. I also hope you were able to teach Mr. Bun Bun what he should chew on and what he shouldn’t while you’re away…
Aww, Mr.Bun Bun is sooo cute!! I absolutely love that abstract art. The HK flight looks like it will be awesome, I really hope you enjoy it!!
_M_
Hi there! First time to leave a message for you.
I had a bunny some years ago, her name was Agu. Fresh veggie and timonthy hay are the best for bunnies. their stool is the signal of their health, so you should keep a close eye on that. I can’t imagine a bunny eating cat food… hope he will switch to his native food. Anyway, he’s fortunate to have you to be his owner, hope he will show up more in your videos
Have a wonderful trip to HK!
hey hello, Michelle
i owned a bunny too. but bunny is easy to be sick
its better to give more glass to her. especially timothy glass
also, you may let her run around the house otherwise she will be unhappy
hahaha but be carefull her mass
hihi! I have a bunny too! However, she’s not as cuddly as Mr. Bun bun
Bunnies need lots of love and lots of room to play haha, which I’m sure you can provide endlessly
. They also need lots of hay, and always have pellets available for them to eat. Fresh veggies and carrots are great for them, keep a small bowl of pellets (buy the ones without all the fatty stuff, like the corn and stuff. they tend to just pick out those which is bad for them) available all the time because bunnies eat a lot. Also, have hay always available. They love hay, and hay is good for them because it cleans their intestines.
Be careful of your wires! My bunny chewed through my boyfriends wires >< some don't like to do it so they just don't haha.
Have fun in HK! and so glad you're blogging
Hi Michelle!
Wow you’re back, finally
Me and my friends are also heading to Hong Kong next week. One of us is even going to Cosmoprof (are u going too?). We really hope we’d bump into you while we’re there. Can’t wait for your future tutorials.
xoxo Maje
Oh dear, I’ve heard notorious things about HK. Sure, it’s so amazing and such, but I’m sure you’ll see the prevalent obsession with THINNESS. Michelle, I hope you’re a size 00 (0 may be pushing it, since it IS Hong Kong)…..
Can you tell I highly disapprove of these Asian standards of beauty? (e.g. the insane thinness level…)
Actually, as much as you see bugs bunny on tv munching on carrots, carrots are actually not good for rabbits…. that’s one of the biggest issues for rabbit owners… many feed them carrots which is not advised by any vet.
carrots are full of sugar which can lead to fattening. green leaf lettuce and romaine lettuce are the only two kinds of lettuces that you can feed to your rabbit – others such as iceberg are not nutritional. You can feed your rabbit sprouts, broccoli, spinach, hay, oranges, plums, bananas peppermint leaves, celery to name a few….
i’m so glad you’re back in the blogging world! it’s fun to read about your daily life and see photos like the ones of Mr Bun Bun = ]
i’ve never had a bunny or used wordpress, sorry, but if you’ve gotten this far im sure it’s only a matter of time before you get the hang of this…
tell us all about Hong Kong, please, i’ve never been out of America! xoxo
gratz on your blog michelle
and you didn’t tell me you were thinking of getting a bunny! haha.. let me know when you’re back from HK. oh, and the second rectangle art is freakN awesome. ttyl.
omg you back!! been waiting a while now haha. Anyways your going hk!!! ahhhh lucky!! I went in the summer for a week and it was amazing. Im sure you will have a great time there too
btw the last picture is soo pretty of you. I can’t wait for your eyeshadows too!! 
omg! your site is up! congrats! cant wait to see more ^^
Glad to see you blogging again – I really enjoy your entries!
Good to have you back in the blogging world
Mr. Bun Bun is a cutie!!
Have fun in Hong Kong!
Yeah, Wordpress is a little “complex” lol but I really like what you’ve done with your site. It’s pretty awesome!
BTW have a safe trip to Hong Long
and now I know if I ever travel to China I so need to go first class! lol. Take care
WOW! First you have a skincare line, next a clothing line, then a makeup line (duhh)….. you are a wonder worker. Sadly, I haven’t tried any products ’cause it’s a little out of my budget:( But I’m sure they’re great. As of Mr.Bun Bun… don’t know what to do (not the best with animals LOL). Good luck with your new products Michelle!
Hello!
Thank you for posting, the art pieces for your new place is so pretty! please have superfun in hong kong, what job do you do that you get to go there and other places??
happy luck!
p.s the design for teh mascara is so elegant!
Michelle hide that phone charger!!! that squishy bunny will chew it in 2! Just feed them timothy hey and ration the pellets. Greens hear and there and natural sweets like bananas, mangos, papaya are ok for once in a while. get pellets from feed stores too, the ones in the pets stores are like hamburgers and they will get super “squishy”
-Guy
Yay!! I’m glad to that you are back! I’ve been missing the blogging (although, you have been posting youtube stuff, but not quite the same :])
Hope to see more of you now :] and good luck with all the organizing and moving/decorating :]
Our Pepper loved apples. I was surprised her loved fruit so much. My fiances prior bunny did the same as others in regards to being potty trained-she used the litter box like the cats! That bunny put those cats in their place.
Tell Mr. Bun Bun we love him! Hugs for him and you both!
I didn’t know the SQ A380 flew out to anywhere but LAX and SYD. JUst for my own curiousity, how much was the ticket?
omg Michele, I’m so glad to see you updating (:
I missed you so much and I’m glad things are getting better and IQQU is on a roll ^^
praying that you’ll do well <3
Aw, Mr. Bun Bun is so cute! I’m sorry to see Mia couldn’t stick around, love seeing her in your videos from time to time but hopefully Mr. Bun Bun will make a guest appearance soon
Woow Michelle, Why you are absolutely adorable?…. I really admire you as an artist, writer and professional. You are so talented, focus, creative and organized in everything you do, that I can’t imagine a typical day in you life…
You are so inspiring in any way and I love your genuine personality!!!
Honey you are awesome for your kindness, your strengths, for working hard for your dreams, for your intelligence and for your capabilities as you unselfishly share your talents with others.
Thank you for everything that you do!…. You’re a beautiful soul, my dream is to meet you one day!!!
Michelle I hope your dreams keep coming true…. You deserve all the best!!!
PS: I am from Colombia (South America) and I hope IQQU will be sold one day here… I know It will be the most important brand in this century!!!
Big Hug and lots of love!!!
SM.
Why are you smiling ??
Can’t you see am sad ? Look ! My ears are down ! xP
Pretty picture. I loved your How-to-dress-like-a-Ninja tuto, really funny ^^. (hoping it was meant to be…)
So here a thank from France : Thank you ! ^^
Bye !
(Hey, by the way, how is it that you have a french name ? French family ?)
eyeshadows desires:
warm tone shadows that will make us look so good.
soft glitter that will give ur eyes a nice pop
long lasting and pigmented
awww i’m gonna miss mia! mr. bun bun will do for now. lol. i can’t wait to get my own place and decorated it w/ my art. btw, have a safe trip!
My bunny LOVED chewing on toilet paper or paper towel rolls (or any cardboard-y/paper-y sort of things). Paper/cardboard is safe for bunnies to ingest.
You can stuff the tubes with hay and this makes a really good toy. Sometime I’d stick a treat, like a few raisins or apple pieces, deep in the center of hay tubes.
Really, you can give your bunny all your junk mail, magazines, catalogs, old phone books to play with and let him “recycle” everything for you.
Rabbits love banana pieces, but give only as a treat or he’ll get fat!
Hey Michelle, I think after you get use to Wordpress, you’ll LOVE it. I use to be on Xanga too but I love how you can customize EVERYTHING on Wordpress.
Your bunny is so cute! There’s a bunny epidemic where I live though… so many people buy them and abandon them, then they reproduce and now the area is filled with wild bunnies. It’s kinda sad because I think the city is killing them since there are just way too many now. =( Anyway, are you suppose to teach them to do their dirty work in a certain area or do they basically just go anywhere?
hi! i’m from singapore!! yesss. i love singapore airlines pls!! even though i never take before first class or business class, but their economic class is good too!!
