HAPPY CHINOIS NEW YEAR!

2012-01-24T03:24:00.001+08:00

#CNY Day 1 Outfit!:

Been neglecting this space for wayyy too long! As usual, everything happened in a whirl and one month has passed just like that. Secondskin kept me bustling around and I'm glad that we are slowly getting on the track. It is definitely one decision I would never regret making! All credits to Pinkpig's dad who brought us one step closer to our dream!

I didn't really get the "new year" vibe until the lunar chinese new year! I'm anticipating 2012 with a lot of hopes and resolutions.

2011 was above average but I guess I learnt quite a few things this year. Much of 2011 was filled with uncertainties and a handful of unhappy memories. The main trouble came from my choice of career. Joined Banyan Tree in May, left them in less than 3 months... Assisting my property agent brother and left him in less than 4 months. I struggled to find my passion/interest and it was so tiring. Through these seven months, I realized that what I wanted to do wasn't like what I expected. I felt demoralized as I lost my sense of direction but I'm glad that I've found it now; running my own business which is an online fashion store!

Besides career issues, my mom was so difficult to communicate with. Aggressive arguments, tears, cold wars were pretty common for me. For now, I'm sincerely hoping that it will be different in 2012. All I need and want is peace and harmony at home. Thank god I've the rest of the family on my side and it really made things easier for me.

On the happier or rather happiest note of 2011, it is getting myself off the shelf hahahaha which is being in a relationship with my dearest boyfriendddd Mr. Joey Chua. :) Not that I'm desperate to be in love but more of finding somebody that I can bare my soul to. Sounds cheesy but yeah! Although we had tough times and so many disagreements, we're still standing strong and learning to understand each other better. Liked I said before, Love really has its magic and it changes you without you knowing it. There's so much I wanna talk about this but nehhh! It would be too lengthy! Just gotta say that I'm glad to have someone like him in my life as my special one!

Also, I'm thankful I still have my bunch of girlies around me when I'm at my lowest despite the lack of meet-ups and all. In the past year, I have realized who are the ones that I can count on for life and keep them close to my heart! (Boobsie, yknow you're always the top on the list!) I hope I can be a better friend for everyone I love in 2012 and I shall start to make free time out for them!

Right now, I'm still chalking up my resolutions for 2012 and I'm gonna make sure they are realistic! Time to knock out and happy a great year ahead, folks!

Will blog more once I've the time!

KITTY CAT!

2011-12-30T01:06:00.000+08:00

Mom brought her home on impromptu again! She's actually a stray cat, just that she resided at my Dad's shop since she was a kitten! One thing about her is that she is one super attitude cat but I still like her...!

Although I have many photos taken with dogs, I am actually more of a cat person! If I could, I don't mind adopting a stray kitten and bond with it since it is young! Personally, I think cats are independent, sassy and charming! Too bad that Mom is totally against the idea of keeping another cat in the house. :(

FYI. I used to dislike this cat ALOT because 2 years ago, she peed on my brand new blankie on Chinese New Year Eve when we went out for dinner!!! Then she pooped at the base of my stand fan twice! Urghz, thank god she's much more toilet-trained now!

ps. can't wait to see the boy tomorrow! <3

THANK YOU FOR LOVING ME

2011-12-29T10:25:00.001+08:00

Spent my long X'mas weekend with the boyfriend but we still felt that time was too short for us. Thought I was the sneakier one in the relationship with all the surprises and all, but turns out he is taking over me now! Time really flies and without us realizing it, it is only less than 2 more months to our anniversary! :) Though a lot of our friends laugh at our anniversary date which is... V'day, I still like it alot! Hahahahahah I know it sounds cheesy but we know we'll always be each other's valentine! <3

ps. I love you... more!

TIS THE SEASON TO BE MERRY~

2011-12-29T10:20:00.017+08:00

Visited the boyfriend's grandma and uncle on X'mas eve and headed to my uncle's place for another feast. Met up with the clique on X'mas for some potluck party! As you can see, I was whipping up some desserts but too bad I forgot to take the end product! (If you noticed, wherever I go with food, the crazy dog Bobo will always be trailing behind me! Talk about gluttony!) Finally got to see Bla and Donn after so long! We had Icekimo cause Salted Caramel was closed on X'mas :( I miss my earl grey, chocolate sorbet and horlicks tim tam ice cream!!! Miss catching up with Bla sooo much! Need to meet my girlies soon when Secondskin workload is lesser!

LOTD!

2011-12-29T09:57:00.000+08:00

Nude, neutral and glowy!

Bought Sephora's super glittery eyeshadow but ended up feeling super disappointed in it! The tester pot has SO much glitter at one swipe but the one I bought was barely glittery. Duh... Dior's eyeshadows are really better! Well... we pay for what we get!

I WANNA BE YOURS

2011-12-20T02:33:00.002+08:00

My birthday bouquet from Joeeeeeey this June!

And another... after his confinement! Sort of for our "monthsary" too. Hahahaha

I guess many of us don't really know each meaning behind the number of rose yeah?

So here you go:

- Red	Sincere Love & Respect, Courage & Passion Send red roses to convey the message of your passionate love for that someone; saying "I love you"
- Pink	Grace and Gentility, the rose of sweet thoughts. Send deep pink roses to show your appreciation & gratitude; saying "Thank you" Send light pink roses to convey admiration and sympathy
- Yellow	In the Victorian times, yellow roses meant jealousy. But today, they signify friendship, joy, gladness and freedom, the promise of a new beginning. Send yellow roses to brighten up someone's day; to congratulate your friends and loved ones during Joyous occasions.
- White	Spiritual love & Purity, the rose of confession, the bridal rose; "You are heavenly", "I am worthy of you" Commonly used as traditional bridal bouquet during weddings to symbolize a happy love. You can nevertheless use them to convey the message of "You are heavenly, I miss you"
- Lavender	Love at first sight and enchantment Send lavender roses of course, to convey the message of your "love at first sight" with that special someone. You can nevertheless also send them if you would like to make a special impression.
- Orange	Passionate desire, pure enthusiasm and fascination An excellent choice for a new relationship that you wish to pursue further. It can nevertheless also be referring to a new business partnership.

And the what does the numbers mean:

1 Rose	Love at the first sight; you are the one
- 2 Roses	Mutual love between both, deeply in love with one another
- 3 Roses	I love you
- 6 Roses	I wanna be yours
- 7 Roses	I'm infatuated with you
- 9 Roses	An Eternal love, together as long as we live
- 10 Roses	You are perfect
- 11 Roses	You are my treasured one; the one I love most in my life
- 12 Roses	Be my steady
- 13 Roses	Secret Admirer
- 15 Roses	I am truly sorry, please forgive me
- 20 Roses	Believe me, I am sincere towards you
- 21 Roses	I am devoted to you
- 24 Roses	Can't stop thinking about you, 24 hours everyday
- 33 Roses	Saying "I love you" with great affection
- 36 Roses	I will remember our romantic moments
- 40 Roses	My love for you is genuine
- 50 Roses	Regretless love, this is
- 99 Roses	I will love you for as long as I live
- 100 Roses	Harmoniously together in a century; remaining devoted as couple till ripe-old age
- 101 Roses	You are my one and only love
- 108 Roses	Please marry me!
- 365 Roses	Can't stop thinking about you, each and everyday
- 999 Roses	Everlasting and Eternal love

And so my dearest boyfriend got me 6 deep pink rose which by right means appreciation, gratitude and "I wanna be yours"! Hahahahaha, but actually what he really thought of was 1 rose for each day of his confinement and he chose deep pink cause hot pink is one of my favorite colors. He actually surprised me at my office on the night he finished field camp! Totally didn't expect it because I had no news from him! Totally caught me off guard and I was like so OMG-what-are-you-doing-here! Loving this boy more and more. :$

Its sad that florists don't really tell their customers the meaning of flowers anymore.

On side note, today is the launch of Secondskin! However, it wasn't as smooth as I anticipated! Worst of all, in less than 4 hours of launch the website was down as our bandwidth limit exceeded. Duh... tell me about opportunity cost!!! Anyway, my Pinkpig is sourcing of our upcoming collection in Bangkok! Hope to bring you girlies some awesome loots!

Time to knock out before I get carried away by the internet!

xoxo

ps. I miss my girlies!

FEELS GOOD TO BE BUSY WITH THINGS I LIKE TO DO

2011-12-15T02:06:00.002+08:00

1 MORE DAY (PERHAPS!)

2011-12-15T00:51:00.000+08:00

Photoshoot 2 tomorrow and we can't wait to come up with the lookbook! Hopefully it will be well shot and well received by everyone! Saw our website which is already 90% done up! I'm quite impressed and never thought it would look that decent!

Tons of prep work to do and can't wait to end everyone's anticipation! Will blog again when I've the time! Gotta do some graphic work now! ;)

Oh yes! My dearest boyfriend should be booking out tomorrow night but even if he is not, tomorrow will be the last day of his outfield camp! So double yay!

xx

YOU KNOW HOW EXACTLY HOW TO TOUCH

2011-12-13T09:16:00.001+08:00

You are always on my mind despite how busy I am. :)

I think I'm just too excited for Secondskin to the extent that everyday I have so many ideas for it! So much so that I rather stay up to Tumblr or think of how to create that x-factor/feel for Secondskin! It's getting a little unhealthy because I only sleep around 4-5 hours a day because I can't switch my mind off and I'm a light sleeper. I can see my eye rings getting worse already. :(

On the lighter note, can't wait for Thursday's 3 hours shoot! And to all those curious cats out there... watch out for Secondskin's soft launch on Facebook! The website is only 70% done and I highly doubt we can launch it this week! So show some love on Facebook! Watch this space for more first hand updates! Hehe

I feel like Secondskin is my second boyfriend now... 100% commitment to it and it leaves me no time for my boobsie, girlies and sibs. :( Sorry if I've been negligent! I'll try harder to manage my time better!

Can't wait to get into the office later and start creating looks with heaps and heaps of clothes, shoes, accessories and Sephora's 193 colors make-up kit! Woooohoooooo! Then follow by meeting with Amybaby and 2 hours of event work with Pinkpig in town later.

Have a great day ahead!

GEMINUS

2011-12-12T00:40:00.000+08:00

I swear I will not wear my killer heels when I'm late or rushing for time again! Brisk walking from the train station to Orchard Hotel was an add-on torture to my feet when I had to stand on the train for 45 minutes before that. Anyway, I managed to catch their set on time though I was 30 minutes late! *Phew*. The ambience at TAB is pretty good but I guess it would be even better at night! Maybe I should plan a date there with the boyfriend this weekend!

Lunch with Kevin after the gig was good! We talked and laughed a lot more than we did when we were in a band! Sad to say that by now, all of us already fully understand that music can only be a hobby in Singapore. Looking back, it's really quite an experience for us and I never regretted being in a band! May be doing acoustic covers with Kevin and Peter some time in the near future! Hopefully I can get an usb condenser mic soon and start some home recording! ;)

Time to crash and rise early again for work tomorrow! (It feels good to call Secondskin my work now!)

TO THE OL' FRIENDS'

2011-12-11T11:37:00.002+08:00

Only slept for less than 5 hours and only having this muffin for breakfast isn't a very good way to start a Sunday! The only consolation is the weather is cold enough for my outfit! Heheh. Gonna rush to TAB and watch my (ex)band boys play!

SLEEP DEPRIVED BECAUSE OF...

2011-12-11T05:12:00.005+08:00

Finally churned out one name card design after trying so hard for a couple of hours!

Meanwhile... that's like a sneak peek of what MAY be in Secondskin. Came up with quite a few ideas on how to express the labels! Can't wait to do a mood board for it and blog on Secondskin's site! Right now, I need to sleep and get my ass to town at 10 am tomorrow morning to watch P's acoustic set at TAB! Honestly... I doubt I will be awake enough to make my way there...

xx

ps. it feels funny when I read our titles on the name card. "Fashion director" and "Managing director"... maybe I should change to "Creative director" instead. Just had to put some kind of title because of the gap in the design layout! Anybody has any suggestion for me?

WEARY BUT HAPPY

2011-12-10T23:43:00.000+08:00

Found my new phone casing in a gorgeous shade of purple and the finishing makes it looks so luxe! And if you know me well, I actually have specs fetish! Bought this and another Chanel inspired specs before the shoot! Hehehe

Holla people! Feels as if I have been away from this space for very long! Yesterday, we (Pinkpig and I) did our first shoot for the shop and the photos turned out great! I modeled for a few items because our model was late and I was in panic mode cause... I didn't have a bra! Okay, sounds unnecessary to say it out loud but because I was wearing a boob tube top so I didn't put on my bra. Totally burst out laughing with Eileen when the photographer suggested me to do a few shoots first. Sigh... lesson learnt! In any case, we won't be using the photos I modeled in cause I scraped all of them off personally! Literally looks like shit when I compare it with my model hahahahahaha. It's definitely an EXCELLENT choice I'm not modeling the clothes.

Very excited to launch the debut collection! Unfortunately, that would be late next week because the website is not even fully functional yet! :( Thought we could launch it this weekend... but wellz, I rather have lesser glitches for my customers! And with that, the debut collection would consist of 2 parts because there are too many items! (Don't wanna spoil shoppers with too many choices!) There is SO much to do and I feel time is really not enough!

To-do list for SS:
1. Name card design
2. Banner design
3. Blog template design
4. First blog post
5. Collection mood board
6. Finalization of concepts (videos/style)
7. Marketing plans

While I'm tackling all the creative side work, my Pinkpig is working her brains over the accounts and logistics! Honestly, I don't even remember online shop has SO much to do. But I guess that's because right now we are on the right track! I really want it to work and prove myself right!

Another busy week ahead!

Monday: Move-in day for our office, stock hunt, meeting with Amy
Tuesday/Wednesday: Shoot
Friday: Boyfriend's bookout!!! Aunt's back from UK!!! Secondskin Launch (hopefully!)

In between there will be more logistic work to be done plus those on my to-do list! On the side note, I realize I have lesser time for friends and gym now!!! Damnz, luckily the boyfriend is stuck in outfield this weekend! At least I have more time this week to do all the initial start up work!

FTT test coming up on 28 December, X'mas plans and so many things unplanned. Gawwwwd! I NEED TIME MANAGEMENT!

Okay, I shall sum up my post with this and back to work!

Ciao!

ps. lovin' this kinda new adrenaline rush!

WHAT'S IN MY CUP

2011-12-08T19:39:00.001+08:00

Didn't know about Gryphon tea until I visited Capella's library where I was served this tea! It is SUPER aromatic and I think it's one of the most fragrant tea I've smelt so far! Got my well deserved break today with my Momz and Sis! 1 hour of Swedish massage, organic lunch and tea time at Fruit Paradise! Then I tried 2 more of Gryphon tea which are Pink Rose Bud and Apple Strudel and Pistachio! I would recommend Apple Strudel and Pistachio more because it has a very lovely buttery and fruity aroma! However, my top favorite is still Pearl of Orient for now because it of the strong floral smell and flavor. I would say Gryphon is probably better than TWG tea! Sadly, Gryphon doesn't have any tea boutique!

Gonna do SS's first photoshoot tomorrow and hopefully everything turns out well! I hope the response would be good and fuel us for more awesome collections! Its only 4 days since I saw the boyfriend but it feels like it's been more than a week! His field camp is coming up this Saturday which means no communication with him for another 6 days! Hollllllllly cow :( Miss him too much already! Booooo. And I really really wanna have a staycation with him in Capella!!! After working there for 3 days, I am convinced that it is worth the money! The excellent guest service, food, room, ambience and environment!!! I told the boyfriend that I rather stay a night in Capella than going Bali or nearby country's villa because Capella just felt like home! Feels so wanderlust now! :(

HEY BABY~

2011-12-06T01:00:00.000+08:00

Had to cover up my lil "peekaboo" with the heart but it seems to fit in pretty well in the picture!

It's going to be 5 weeks since the boyfriend enlisted into the army and I guess (GUESS~) I'm adapted (or maybe still adapting) to it already. Although I do dislike army when I miss him too much, I still have to say that it's really better for guys to go through this phase in their lives. Army made me pull my life away from his and reminded me that I need to be who I am. Also, absence did made the hearts fonder. :) Last night's conversation really made me feel truly happy. Unfortunately, he didn't get to reply my last message because his phone was confiscated...! Zzz

Spent the past few days with him doing nothing but funshion-ing and eating (ALOT!). That's what happens when you have lazy bones! But to me, it doesn't matter what we are doing so long we are at it together. :) Time with him just pass SO fast. :( I love to sleep in his arms but I hate the fact that when I wake up... we will have lesser time to spend together again. I seriously miss going on a holiday with him where all we have to care is ourselves. Wished I'm rich enough to book a suite in Capella to spend the Xmas Eve with him :(

Finally watched the entire Twilight saga and I'll say I like it... it's more like a romance flick than some vampires-werewolves-terror-action flick. Breaking dawn was a good one though its kind of draggy. Love the love in the movie cause it makes me feel sorta happy for the characters... Guys, if you haven't watched the previous series or haven't read the books, please don't attempt to watch Breaking Dawn and end up saying it sucks. You're not doing the movie justice~

Ended a long day at Capella for Dior event. It was a very light duty day and had very good meals compared to the period when I was their intern. Hectic day tomorrow and have to wear my killer wedges because my flats split AGAIN. Hope I don't die in them! Gonna knock out now and wake up at like 6ish tomorrow again. Goodnight babies.

MY NEW FAV: BOBO!

2011-12-04T22:50:00.000+08:00

Hehehehe... isn't she cute?! It was SO hard trying to capture a clear photo of her! Sadly, she is a very old dog and I guess time with her wouldn't be very long. She's a love-hate dog but I always can't help to be amused by her weird attitude and antics! Smeeeeowy dog!

MY GORGEOUS PEOPLE

2011-12-03T10:55:00.000+08:00

Aww! My pretty boobsie! 7 years and still counting, one of the important ones in my life.

Holla people! It's finally the weekends! This week is a pretty busy one on overall and time is really passing quite fast! Went to CHIJMES with Boobsie to support Wang at 50 Gorgeous People! Errrr kinda boring actually... but all in the name for our friend!

I love dolling up, camwhoring and snuggle with my Boobsie! Looking back, it's impressive that we are still so close to each other's heart after so long. I feel that true friendship happens when neither one of you tries to take advantage of each other, baring your true self to each other, genuinely care and love each other, being honest and true to each other, not being judgmental and of course giving the right morale support to each other. There's SO much things I can list here but well... I bet all of you know these qualities as well. I've to say that both of us don't meet often or talk often like everyday basis but whenever we get in touch, the feeling is always the same and we have so much to tell each other. Although our lifestyles are pretty different... but by making an effort to hear each other out and being engaged in it helps. I love my Boobsie because she's probably the one and only one I don't have to conceal any part of myself for. Also, I know no matter how gross, annoying and pesky I am, she wouldn't get mad or whatever for more than a day. Well, maybe she might be my lover in my next life but I'm definitely gonna be the domineering one and scolding her everyday for her bad habits!!!! Especially the way she litters her clothes EVERYWHERE and ANYWHERE. For now, I really wish that she'll get someone that deserves her and treats her like a queen. I think I've been hoping for this for VERY long already and I feel like a mother saying this. Okay, nuff said... and HAPPY BOOBSIE DAY! And no, it's not our "anniversary"or whatever, but it can be a HAPPY BOOBSIE DAY everyday!

Can't wait for the boy to finish his "excursion" at Discovery Centre and meet him for lunch! I'm STARVING. Have a great weekend people!

ps/ go show some appreciation to your best friend. it will make her/his day more than anything

INFECTIONS

2011-12-01T02:17:00.002+08:00

Hollllllllllly cow..! I'm down with tonsil infection and my right eye is going crazy because it is producing eye mucus WAY TOO MUCH. If you wear contact lenses, please make sure they are clean and in good condition! My eye irritation was caused by my chipped off lens (it was really tiny therefore I didn't notice it)! Worse still, I only realized that a few hours later after removing it due to the discomfort! Don't know what would happen if I just disregard it as usual...! Lesson learnt in the "soft" way! Phewz!

Met up with Pinkpig today for our furniture hunt and a second visit to our suppliers! Quite a fruitful day and I must say I really kinda love our debut collection! Found a new face for the shop! Unfortunately, she can't make it for the first shoot so I'm gonna model for the first collection. (Urgh... I'm feeling very inferior about myself because of my usual high expectations of models I want to hire. Blehhh just hope I can do a decent job myself!) If only I have still have my long tresses! Regretzzzz x 1000!

While I'm busy out here, the boy is even busier with his hardcore training in camp. His personal time is even more limited as compared to the time he had during the first three weeks of confinement. Kinda sad because I can barely talk to him more than 5 minutes everyday for the past few days... plus Saturday book out this week and no book out next week due to outfield camp. Behhhhhhh. I think I'm gonna be lovesick soon even though I'm already getting the hang of it. :( Countdown to Xmas and 7 Jan 2012!

Okay, time for me to finish my leftover chicken caesar sandwich and head to bed. Meeting the boobsie tomorrow (yay!) and off to catch Wang at 50 Gorgeous People event!

FIT = SEXY

2011-11-28T22:02:00.000+08:00

Pardon my cluttered looking room!

It's been almost 3 weeks since I started going to Fitness First. Well... I don't see much physically difference but I feel my stamina has improved ALOT. I guess I have to work harder especially on my diet. I haven't been eating properly and it's making me feel weak. Shall start to clean up my kitchen, buy some new cooking stuff and make my own meals! I hope I'll still be able to hit the gym every alternative day when SS starts! Gonna pick up personal training once my income is stable!

My fitness goal is:
- A leaner and toner body
- Build curves at the right places (HAHA)
- Stronger core, and light abs cutting
- Slimmer and toner legs

Every now and then I would go to my TUMBLR to look for motivations and inspirations! I feel that the feeling after a good workout is the best motivation you can ever have!

Spent 3 good days with the boyfriend doing nothing much but funshion-ing at home and pigging out! And I miss him very much right now! I miss cuddling him and falling asleep face-to-face. This is what I call simplicity at its best! The only thing that makes me go a little crazy is when he meets the other army boys and they start on their ENDLESS army talks. It's really ENDLESS and they are totally in their own world. Hahahah, never thought it would be tad bad. But oh well! He's still my love! :) Can't wait for every weekend now!

Okay, gonna go for stock hunting tomorrow with pinkpigggg! Shall get some stuff for myself too! *AHEM!* Hope my flu bug go away soon because its really making me miserable. :(

Ciao!

DAY #12-#15

2011-11-22T09:04:00.000+08:00

Went Azzura with Pinkpig yesterday!

The past few days passed quickly in a blink! Shall update this space later! :)

ps. Dear bf, please get well soon quickly! :(

DAY #11

2011-11-19T01:50:00.000+08:00

Holla! Back from dinner and movie with my aunt and Bro! Caught Immortal and it was surprisingly good! I thought it was going to one of those lame shows but it turned out to be one of those wowzaaa movie! If you're not a gore fan or you have a weak heart... do be mentally prepared for Immortal! There's a reason why it is rated M18!

Another 6 more days to see the boyfriend! Glad that they had the chance to feedback to the commanding officer. Army should be tough and tiring but not humiliating. I bet all the boys are gonna complain next week because of the 4 km route march hahahahaha. Guess I'm gonna have lesser communication with him because his friend's battery is left with 50% only. Luckily he has the iPad and Twitter became our only form of communication.

Gonna hit the pillows now and off to the gym tomorrow at 9.30am! I think I'm addicted to Fitness First...! But that's the fastest way to kill time and do some good for my body at the same time! Gonna make full use of the complimentary personal training and work it out!

GOAL: Toned and lean body!!!

Goodnight babies.

5 LANGUAGE OF LOVE

2011-11-17T00:58:00.001+08:00

Miss... my longggggggggg hair!!!

Just read MsRach's blog and did a quiz about my love language personal profile! I found it pretty interesting and it is quite helpful because you'll understand yourself better as a lover. It is a knowledge that everyone should know, even if you're single. As much as we think love is complex... it can be simplified by understanding what kind of relationship you are getting into or you are in. This book/quiz helps to remind me that different people has different ways of expressing and receiving love. I'm so gonna get this book because it seems to be a very worthy read!

After doing the quiz...this is my score:

Quality Time - 9
Words of Affirmation - 7
Physical Touch - 6
Acts of Service - 5
Receiving Gifts - 3

The interpretation of the profile scores:

The highest score indicates your primary love language (the highest score is 12). It’s not uncommon to have two high scores, although one language does have a slight edge for most people. That just means two languages are important to you.

The lower scores indicate those languages you seldom use to communicate love and which probably don’t affect you very much on an emotional level.

My love language #1: Quality Time

In the vernacular of Quality Time, nothing says, “I love you,” like full, undivided attention. Being there for this type of person is critical, but really being there–with the TV off, fork and knife down, and all chores and tasks on standby–makes your significant other feel truly special and loved. Distractions, postponed dates, or the failure to listen can be especially hurtful.

My love language #2: Words of Affirmation

Actions don’t always speak louder than words. If this is your love language, unsolicited compliments mean the world to you. Hearing the words, “I love you,” are important—hearing the reasons behind that love sends your spirits skyward. Insults can leave you shattered and are not easily forgotten.

And for those interested in the quiz...there you gooooo!

5 LOVE LANGUAGE QUIZ

Anyway, time spent with the girls tonight was awesome! Updated each other about our current lives and time was just too short for us. I love the fact that I always have never-ending topics with Bla... although she always (ALWAYS) laugh at me. Meanwhile, I'm glad that I had a goooooood lengthy personal chat with my dear Finny. I can't wait for another date with them! It feels good to be growing up together with them. Imagine 10 years down the road, we'll be looking back and laughing at our past and silliness... Bliss!

I hate this part of the day when I start to miss the boyfriend very very much. I've to admit that I'm so attached and whiney! But I didn't really expect myself to be like this too...! :p Love really changes a person yeah? 8 more days to my DDboy!

I'm gonna crash now! Pretty tired and I'm going to hit the gym tomorrow 9.30 a.m. in the morning for 3 hours of lesson! Gonna meet the other girls for some fitness time and chillax after workout!

Goodnight folks!

ps. playing our songs to sleep. :)

DAY #7 & #8

2011-11-16T10:06:00.003+08:00

Happy B'day to Joeymama! Made her an oreo cheesecake on Monday!

Proportions were quite off and it didn't really taste cheesy at all! :( But the texture and base were fine tho! In the entire recipe, I was short of 50g of cream cheese and 60ml of whipping cream. I guess that's where the taste gone wrong! It's quite fun hanging around with his family because of his dad and sister. Had a pizza feast that night and long john silvers for lunch... my effort in the gym has gone down the drain~

Yesterday was another gym session with Bro. We went for Steps and Bodypump! I think I really suck in coordination! Totally couldn't catch up with the choreography in Steps class but I had fun laughing at my Bro. ;p Bodypump was a badddddass! I think my legs muscles are bulking up already...nooooooooo! Then I met Pinkpig in town for a chillax session and crashed Boobsie's place in the evening! I am in LOVE with her oven!! Think we will have a lot of baking session in future ;)

And as for today... I'm gonna be Cinderella till noon and meet Bla and the girls at night! Tomorrow will be another gym date with the armyboys' gfs! Life's pretty busy even tho the boyfriend is not around! Heheheh

Getting daily updates from him in army is quite interesting and I can't wait to see his body transformation! However, his phone batt died on him and his sergeants don't have suitable chargers so... thank god for Baron who lends him his battery from time to time! That's all for now!

Countdown: 9 days!

xx

DAY #6

2011-11-13T23:40:00.001+08:00

Sigh! Army please be kind to all the recruits!

Just got a call from the boy saying that his coy might not be able to book out because one of the guys lost his rifle's shell or whatever it is! My heart just sank when I heard that. :( I bet even if they found it, the company will still get punished in one way or another. I hope his book out time and days will not be affect...! It's almost a week since he enlisted but time isn't passing fast enough! Going to his place to celebrate his mom's birthday tomorrow and I'm so gonna steal his hoodie + perfume!

Went for steps and hot yoga classes today with my Sis! Thought I would be able to last till the third class but hell no! My arms and legs were like jelly after two classes! Had a super satisfying lunch and Salted Caramel's ice cream for supper! So now, its time to crash and have a good rest!

xx
Cindy

ps. I miss you or I love you is like overly used, its an understatement because it barely describe what I really feel.

DAY #4 AND #5

2011-11-13T00:14:00.000+08:00

My eye is kinda red from over-wearing my contact lens and I think my iris looks kinda... weird? Hope I don't get any infection or problem! :(

Hollaaa people! I've spent my past two days pretty well! Went to the gym for both days and I feel good! Tomorrow will mark my third consecutive day at the gym! Gonna drag my slob of fat sister with me and have an intense workout! Sportswear is my new fashion, just that it's too expensive!

Went to Heat Ultra Lounge last night with my aunt and bro! If you haven't been there, do check it out because the food and ambience is pretty good! Its at Royal Plaza on Scotts Hotel, just directly above Carousel! Shall drop by there to chill out with the girls on Thursday after our gym session!

Met up with Pinkpig today to finalize our webstore design! Most probably we'll get it by early December and yay! Hoping to manufacture our own clothes with Pinkpig's contact! Honestly, I think a lot of people think we're naive to start an online fashion store now. Yes... with all the intense competition out there, I know its going to be a tough battle but just have a little faith~ We both can't wait to start this and get it rolling bigger! To prove our doubts wrong as well as others'. I've been telling myself to look at the bright side and not dwell in "what-ifs". At least at the end, I've tried and have no regrets.

And of course... the last part of my post is gonna be dedicated to the boyfriend. :) So happy that he is receiving more personal time these few days and glad to hear from him! 12 more days to go! Can't imagine what it will be like to see him on the 25th...! Miss him so much but its not easy to remember his touch and smell. :( Time please pass faster!

Okay, I'm gonna go get some rest and be prepared for tomorrow's lessons! Tone and lean is my goal!

xx
Cindy

DAY #3

2011-11-10T17:30:00.000+08:00

Impromptu Barclays Event at Rasa Sentosa with Serena and Singyee!

Basically, we were made to wear table costume with a super heavy head piece! The head piece was damn hazardous because it was way too loose and heavy for us! Imagine serving canapes halfway and the head piece slides off! By the end of 2 hours, our arms were aching, numb and trembling. Not to forget that I got light bruises on my hipbone because of the table top... well, good pay are not easy to earn!

Today is just another average day! Woke up at 5 am, texted the boyfriend and back to sleep. It seems that Bro is dropping all my responsibilities for his work already...! Which is a good thing cause I don't need to feel the pressure at home anymore. Kinda listless today so I decided to tidy up my room! I am always amazed by the things I can find under my bed!

Here's a few common things I'll find:
1. Tweezers! Found 2 this time round and 4 the previous time! *hahahaha
2. Pens! Found at least 5 pens...
3. Wrappers! Not solely contributed by me please...! I sleep with a dirty monster, my Sis.
4. Letters/Bills!
5. Hair clips/pins!

I would definitely know where to find my missing tweezers or pens in future...

Anyway... I guess the boyfriend-less feeling is slowly setting into me already but I still miss him infinitely! Shall write his outfield letter tonight! ;) Good that my Aunt is back in town, gonna meet her tomorrow for a pedicure session, dinner and chill out with my Bro. Meanwhile, I'm gonna start hitting the gym tomorrow!

Sat - Meeting with Pinkpig and Felix for SS's website, maybe dinz with the boyfriend's parents

Sun - Gym! (Any kakis?)

Mon - Office viewing + Joey's Momz birthday

Tues - Gym! Boobsie day!

Wed - Bla day!

It seems that my schedule isn't too empty for now... Oh well!

xx

DAY #2: :(

2011-11-09T12:48:00.000+08:00

And that's Yuki!

If you're my follower on Twitter or Facebook, you'll know that my boy has enlisted into the army yesterday! Can't help but to feel the blues when he's not gonna be around for nearly 3 weeks. Especially after I have spent 5 days with him before enlistment...! Now I feel what every girl feels when their boyfriend goes into NS.

The dreadful feeling didn't really get into me until we parted ways at Tekong and when having the last meal with him. Felt like tearing ABIT when we last hugged, when he marched off and when we were leaving Tekong on the ferry. :( Last night, I was waiting for his call at Nex because I didn't want to receive his call when I'm on my way home in the train... ended up he only called in at the last 15 mins but we couldn't even talk past 30 seconds because he hasn't showered and all. Felt so deprived... gawddddd. So I decided to wake up in the morning around 5am to text him and yay! I got his text first at 4.30am. Though we only exchanged like 3 msgs, it made me contented enough for the moment. Gonna look forward for his next call/msg!

16 days to go! But it really feels lengthy...! Just as I wanna get some events jobs, all the events are lined up in December. Duh...

In any case, we're already working on our website with designers. Gonna check out the office space again next Monday and confirm it. From there on, I'll be focused on doing some design works and we'll move into our office... ideally on 1st of December! We have already done our "model-hunt" and got some other stuff decided. So I just hope that everything runs well and that my dad won't go to China because that would means I've to man the shop for 2 weeks till mid December. :(

Okay, gonna shower and head up to Aunt's place for lunch... then impromptu event job for 2 hours at Sentosa later with Serena and Singyee!

xx,
Cindy

ps/ I wish I have a clone, a time machine, a teleport machine and the capability of minimizing myself to one inch tall so I can hide in the boy's pocket. (BLA DON'T LAUGH AT ME ALREADY :/ )

THOUGHTS OF THE DAY

2011-10-28T01:25:00.000+08:00

"the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. and the only way to do great work is to love what you do. if you haven't found it yet, keep looking. don't settle. as with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it.
and, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. so keep looking until you find it. don't settle."

Quoted from Violaerin.

I'm very much decided on what I'm gonna do for the next few months! It's totally such a great opportunity that Pinkpig's dad is willing be to our main "shareholder" to fork out the capital for our business. So right now, we don't have to worry about capital but start planning our directions! Both of us can't wait to find a date and discuss all the details! The best part is looking for a small office space to call our own! When I hear all the positive remarks and encouragements, it really make me set my heart to get this well done. I really miss the days that I'm happily busy for something worthwhile. For people with skepticism about my decision, put your words on hold because I have my own doubts too, just that now I choose to cheat my fears and do what I really want to. Just wish me luck! I feel so much at ease after getting supportive remarks from my sis and aunties. Every encouragement has its own magic! From now on, I shall always remind myself, "NEVER SAY DIE!".

And I retweeted something this afternoon and found it extremely motivating.

"The 3 C's of life; Choice, Chance, Change. You must make the Choice to take the Chance if u want anything to Change."

That's all for tonight! Goodnight folks. :)

xx

ps/ if you don't take yourself seriously, nobody would. And remember that priority is like respect, it's a give and take/2-way thing. If you're not given priority as you gave to others, DON'T BOTHER.

CHERISH EVERY HAPPY MOMENT YOU HAVE

2011-10-25T00:33:00.000+08:00

I miss blogging about my life and every enjoyable/happy thing. But right now, there's just nothing to blog but laments... Every time I get on this page I would type, backspace, type, backspace and press the 'x' button.

Can't wait to save more $$$ and go for a BKK 1-Day trip! Then I'll unleash the shopaholic in me at Platinummmm! Right now, I'm still harboring the thought of having a blogshop for fun... But I can smell A LOT OF objections from people around me... har har.

Sometimes I wish I'm musically inclined and extra talented so I can compose my own music. On a random note, I gotta admit I LOVE KPOP. It seriously perks up my gloomy days and gimmes extra adrenaline when I exercise. Can't wait for Mnet Mamaaaa!

And someday I'm gonna ditch my Olympus EP-L1 for EPM1...! It's officially on my want list now! So long since I've something on my want list!

Okay, this is a super random blog post and I'm pretty sure I'll feel crappy tomorrow. Timbre with the boy and friends tomorrow! It's been long since I hear 53A!

HEAD'S SPINNING, TEARS ROLLING

2011-10-20T01:28:00.000+08:00

If you are the one that matters enough, he will show it to you, prove it to you and make you feel it.

Is it really true that we have to lose something to realize its value?

STARTING TO HATE MYSELF

2011-10-19T22:21:00.003+08:00

I'm never the person who likes to conceal how I feel and act normal. Maybe it is a girl's thing or it's me that I don't get over things easily. Felt like the happiest person in the world less than a week back and right now I feel like nothing. Sometimes I wonder why am I so serious, it really cuts.

Don't know why I've become such a weakie. Tired of teary and pent up nights like this.

THE CYCLE:

2011-10-19T01:59:00.000+08:00

It's always the same person who makes you laugh and tear the most.

HELLO PHOTO BOOTH I MISS YOU

2011-10-15T21:51:00.001+08:00

Still in love with wine red nails

Been feeling sickish and lethargic for the past few days that I feel like I wasted so much time slugging around. Almost a week back from Bangkok yet I'm not missing any part of it. If only I had the money and chance to go on other short vacation with the boyfriend.

Another 3 weeks before the boyfriend enlists into Army... :( Can't imagine how I'll feel on the actual day! Pat can laugh back at me when the day comes! It's gonna be tough with all the missing. :(

But on the happier note, I passed my BTT with full marks! Okay, it's not a big feat but to think that I only studied it the night before... it's a tiny matter to be proud of! FTT in another... 2 months plus! Contemplating about taking manual or auto... but I rather go for auto and pass it at a go! Plus chances of driving a manual car is so slim. Need to sign up for PDL soon and start learning asap!

Seriously, sometimes I wish I've a time machine so I can fast forward my life now. Life before 21 is a waste of time for me. At times, I really miss the schooling days. All you gotta do is to ace your subjects and be a good kid, that's all. You don't have to think of so many things, your heart and mind are still pure. Carefree and naive, mistakes are always forgiven because you're still young. When we grow up, higher expectations and demands from everyone around you, leading us to struggle with our identity and direction in life. Everyone wants to be successful and happy. But how much does it has to take to be there? I wonder what will life be if I'm not born in Singapore. Not that I'm lamenting the life in this country but just curious how much the difference will be. I wonder what lies ahead for me and what will my life be like in another 5 years.

I guess I'm in the teen-to-adult transition stage and everything looks so gloomy to me. Plus I'm that kind of person who needs a strong sense of achievement and security, it makes it worse? Okay, I'm not emo-ing here but just can't stop thinking about life... life and life... One word to describe my feeling... uncertainty.

Missing my boy now.

xx

DAUGHTRY'S MAKING ME TEARY

2011-09-30T00:43:00.001+08:00

When will I ever be done with this? I guess it's back to square one again. I don't know what I wanna do or what I want you to do anymore. It's pointless and meaningless to repeat all this. Tired of feeling this again and again. Perhaps its just me. Not looking forward to anything now. Especially when I sense imminent problems ahead. But I'm still trying my best.

Strangers Again

2011-09-29T00:58:00.000+08:00

Don't know why but just randomly went to Youtube this video tonight. Kinda served as a reminder. Oh well... just saved that large chunk of text I typed under draft instead of posting it.

"Being comfortable isn't unnecessarily bad, its when we can truly be ourselves. But it depends on what you do with that comfort. Some use it positively, continuing to work at their relationship and grow together. But others allow it to create distance."

Sometimes in life, I feel like Cinderella at 12 midnight.

DDBOY'S PRE-21ST CELEBRATION!

2011-09-19T01:06:00.000+08:00

It's been a long day of running and buzzing around! Finally back on my bed and I feel like my old bones are falling apart. Nevertheless, hope baby had a good evening with his family and friends! Shall blog more when I've got the time!

xoxo

AGE MESSES WITH YOUR HEAD

2011-09-05T23:52:00.000+08:00

I'm back. It seems like I'm turning my supposedly-light-hearted blog into my unhappy well. Sorry readers.

Now, I'm feeling less uptight after having some money in my pocket. I don't know what has gotten into me but ever since I graduated, I became kinda stressed up. Maybe it's my impatience trying to get the sense of achievement or what. Or maybe I just need to be kept busy with what I know I'm doing. Like what I told boobsie, I miss having control of my life. Every once in a while, I'll think if I'm on the right track too. But honestly, right now I'm prioritizing my time on my boy before he goes army. So hopefully after November, I'll get my mood straight and do things with 200% effort.

Today, I felt bad as a daughter because my edgy dad stormed out of the house at 3am in the morning and it started because of me. Though he was really the incredible and unreasonable one but I guess if I had gone home earlier, it would have saved a lot of trouble. I hope mom's assumptions of the reason behind his bizarre actions last night wasn't true. Like what big fish said, no matter how mature I think I am, I am never in their eyes because they still love us and see us like a baby. I think I can fully understand that. And with that, I'm desperate to show them I'm grown up and I can make the right choices. Even if it was a mistake, I would learn from it. On top of it, I wanna spoil them with what I can and it sort of frustrates me because I don't even know I can survive. Though they never asked for anything from me but I just feel that I should be giving them something already. Just wanna see them happy and not worry about me. Also, I'm worried whether I am living up to my loved ones' expectations especially my brother and aunt. Does anybody feels the same here?

Sometimes, I wonder what life has for me and I envy how people can live their passion without struggling.

Wanna blog more but am having a writer's block now. Good luck to everyone out there.

Peace
xoxo

BLUES

2011-08-31T00:12:00.000+08:00

Feels like I haven't been truly happy for the past few months. Seriously, even after aunt tried to spur me on, I still feel the same. Never been so unhappy for such long time. Is this what I wanted?

MAELSTROM OF FEELINGS IN THIS TRANQUILITY

2011-08-15T23:09:00.000+08:00

My current laptop wallpaper.

It's 10.55pm now and today, I've done nothing better else than the laundry. Time really flies and little I realized it's been 10 days since I blogged. Feeling strong Monday blues today but probably because PMS is adding onto it. I haven't found my determination and motivation to work hard. Cold calling is just SO uncompelling that I really don't know what I should do about it. It is probably one of the things I have to go through but such unfruitful work really gets more than just on my nerves.

Today, I spent a lot of time thinking of... nothing, I guess. Feels like my interest and enthusiasm for life is really drying up. There are no other jobs that I feel like trying, no other courses I feel like studying. Never thought that I would feel this way, given that I always had something in mind to do. I have no idea what's happening to me right now. Feeling useless and hopeless but I hope my Bro doesn't think of me this way yet. Still remember what D's dad said, "Motivation is self-driven and others can only encourage." But I still don't know where to find my fighting spirit back.

Seems like the hole in the heart is growing bigger.

OM NOM NOM~

2011-08-05T23:39:00.000+08:00

Although cooking is a big mess and time consuming, the satisfaction you get from it at the end is awesome! We made each other breakfast on different weekends and we were SO full from it! I love fulfilling breakfasts; especially when it is made with Love!

Our half-NAKED Chef Chua~ He was super grumpy and refused to let me help at all!

BACONS...

A lighter version of our American Breakfast!

Now... the real sin!

This is BOBO! The dog that goes crazy when you mention "Lizard!!!" or ask it to "Oosh". She was eyeing my food the entire time. Glutton dog like the owner. Ahem!

I roasted potatoes and grilled cheddy pork sausages!

And I swapped break with hot toasted croissant!

Okay, right now I'm really craving for some breakfast...!

NAILS

2011-08-01T13:37:00.001+08:00

Supposed to be cow prints but we sorta overdo it. But still, pretty nails done by Bla! <3

Gonna peel of my nose strip now and get to work. Have a great week peeeeople! On the side note, photo booth really hides my bare face's flaws!

HAPPINESS

2011-07-29T12:22:00.002+08:00

For those who thought your internet screwed up and couldn't load my entries, don't worry! I was just using my blog like twitter to vent out my emotions.

For the past week, I've been working from home for my brother and it's not easy. It's always difficult to start something with 0 knowledge and I have to say I've the advantage to have him to guide me along. Although this job offers me flexibility, the first thing you have to put up is people canceling out on you. I'm a big hater it and right now I've to accept this is what I'm gonna get a lot in this line. Well, the benefits are attractive and rewarding but it takes a lot of time, discipline, determination and LUCK. Hope I won't get easily bored out of this job anytime soon-which I mean years. For now, I just hope I can gain the most out of this year before I turn 21.

Again, was thinking about the definition of Happiness. My happiness is to find satisfaction and achievement in life. Some people's happiness is money and material, but for me it is more of fulfilling my roles and enjoying them. Be it being a successful career woman, a filial daughter, everyone's good friend or a perfect lover. And with this, I will always wish I have enough time and resources to do whatever I want. In order to get to that, I decided to join the property line to earn as much as I can and do something I enjoy after I have enough. It maybe a retail business or who knows what inspirations I can get down the road? Maybe... I might even be a therapist or a pattisier?!

No doubts that papers and certifications are important in our society today, but just honestly ask yourself if you love what you're doing or not. Are you following the pattern of a typical Singaporean? Do you know what you want to do and achieve? I feel it pointless to study so hard to get a higher paying job without enjoying any part of the process. Just a food for thought. :)

DON'T REMEMBER HAVING SO MUCH PATIENCE BEFORE

WOULD LOVE TO BE DRUNK NOW

2011-07-22T19:26:00.002+08:00

Already been like this for the past few days. I really don't need more things to aggravate my mood now. Trying so hard to chill, breathe and get back into the right state of mind but its bloody hard. Seriously. Can I just fall into coma or fall sick so I have a valid reason to stay in bed for long?

HELPLESS?

2011-07-22T02:38:00.000+08:00

In June, I wished for better times in July but right now I'm still wishing. It was mentally tiring and upsetting for the past weeks and I don't know how long more I can live with it. Unhappy stuff just come in waves, one after another. Soon, I'm going to lose myself, my confidence in life and becoming a grey character. My pillows and blanket are the simplest form of comfort I can get and to seek refuge in. Tonight, I just got myself more questions. The worst feeling is probably when people just can't understand you as much as you wish they could and you don't know what else you can do. Maybe my intentions are stubborn and I should just let it go? But what should I do when it happens again? I'm really not sure if I would still be that patient.

And there's so many times I just want to see your face instead of staring at my phone when we try to sort things out. Sometimes, it just feels like we're so close yet so far. Even though I told myself to stop thinking and sleep, you're always on my mind. Wondering if you're asleep, wondering what you're doing or thinking and wondering till I fall asleep. Its also the same process when I wake up. And now I'm getting this inexplicable feeling.

There's so many words I want to say but I don't know how to.

ps. starting to hate myself for being such a weakie/softie.

BINGO

2011-07-22T01:48:00.000+08:00

Geminis born June 10 are on an endless roller coaster of highs and lows, which can amaze those who know them well. They are acutely aware of the expectations of others and may often go to great lengths to live up to them. Being at ease with who they are is a trait that they need to cultivate.

Gemini Information
for June 10You should embrace: Joy of living, moderation, quiet times

You should avoid: Excesses, unwise love affairs, depression.

Friends and Lovers

Because they are vulnerable and kind, these individuals often choose friends who are having trouble in their lives. They are somewhat successful in romance, though they are wildly romantic and a bit idealistic. Despite this, they make loyal and loving mates.

Children and Family
Whether from a big or a small family, June 10 people love all the traditions. They are involved, caring parents. They are conscious of the psychological needs of their youngsters and will work hard to meet those needs, creating an atmosphere of trust and friendship.

Health

These people are amazingly vital and active. They have a high energy level and never seem to run down. But only a part of their energy is physical; the rest is emotional -- they are high on life. They can eat almost anything and usually do, but their diet, fortunately, is varied enough to keep them healthy.

Career and Finances

June 10 individuals love to "perform," so they often gravitate to careers that put them in the spotlight. They have good math skills and may become successful accountants or engineers. Yet they are not as good at managing their own finances and usually look to their mate to handle the family's money.

Dreams and Goals

Although they seem secure with their self-image, June 10 people actually need to have their ego carefully nurtured. They have a great many goals and plans yet may not always feel as if they have what it takes to bring them about.

CUPCAKE LADIES

2011-07-19T11:23:00.002+08:00

HI! Meet my Nalababy! (hehe sorry Bla, she'll share my love for you :p)

This July feels like the catch up month! Went over to Bla's place to chill, have my manicure lovingly done by her and bake! According to her maid, we are the "cupcake ladies"! 80% of the time, the maid was like ~Ooh~ and ~Aah-ing~ at our cupcakes! She was so delighted when I made her the first person to try the cupcakes! She is seriously amusing like how Bla always says. The cupcakes turned out yummy just that it was abit tad dry! However, the fudge in it made up for the lack of moisture. I'm telling you its SUPER sinful but shall tweak the recipe next time to make it MORE sinful! And of course, the cupcakes were for my ass boyfriend. I'm gonna make him more food and make him fatter than me...!

& Nala was a crazy little ball of fur! I think pups are cute cause they're really silly in a way. She made me "scale" up on Bla's kitchen counters because she was chasing and trying to gnaw my feet... my gawdddd. Just FYI, she has a sad face and it's not because I'm carrying her!

Too bad Amy is scared of dogs so we went out to have late dinner and H2H2 talks. :) Thank you girls for the present!

xoxoxo

HAIR REVAMP!

2011-07-19T11:01:00.001+08:00

Although I miss my long hair sometimes, I will never regret my decision to crop it! So here's some overdue photos that I've just uploaded!

....

Before...

Halfway through...

Imagine this is just half of the amount I cut off...!

And taadaaaa! Bob with long fringe... though it made me look chic/"wuseh" (according to Kareen haha) it made me feel older and much more mature. So, I ended up going back to bangs for a younger appeal :p

Then I met up with Peter the other day for a catch up session/dinner. Alas, he finally understood how I feel about trying to make a mark in the local music scene. Reality just knocks you up, tells you that the market in Singapore is just too small and making music here will cost you more than you can earn from it. But no matter what, we'll just keep it as a hobby. :) However, through music I met these pals and explored another area of my interests. At least in future I can tell my kids, "Your mom was a rockstar..!"

xoxoxo

BACK TO BANGS

2011-07-15T09:38:00.002+08:00

Okay! For all the Twitter folks who wanted to see the new mini change. Don't ask me why I cut bangs because I didn't really have the intention to! I wanted long side swept fringe but it got shorter because I tried to make it look decent. (Not the first time) Not very used to bangs now but I think it will get better as it grows longer! My previous hairstyle made me look 2 years older and now this makes me look >2 years younger! According to the bf, I look like a secondary school kid and the evil stepmother from a HK drama. (FYI. He couldn't stop commenting that I look retarded! Tsk!)

Anyhow, yesterday was a fun day with my BLA and Amy! Baked chocolate fudge cupcakes for that Ass and Bla did my nails too! Met Nala the new pup and seriously she can be such a little monster! (But I still likey~) Maybe a few months later when my ass bf goes into army, I'll get myself my favorite-Pudding hamsters! Okay, gonna go prep up and meet Woonhoe for lunch. After lunch will be intense job briefing by Bro. Sigh! Life's so... i don't know what to say but how I wish I've enough money to retire now... Happiness is being able to do what you love with the people you love but without money, time and any constraints.

PS. HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHIULEE! I wish you all the best in everything you do and have a good romance this year! :p

LOVE MAKES YOU FAT INDEED

Happy 5th! And love you D!

NEW LOW POINT OF MY LIFE

2011-07-11T00:34:00.002+08:00

I don't know how I should think/feel/do anymore. It sucks to be a girl in every way, especially the PMS period. Sometimes, I'm even confused if PMS is the cause of my problems or what. Haven't been feeling truly happy for the freaking entire week. Anybody selling happy pills?

MY HEAD HURTS BUT PROBABLY NOT AS BAD AS THE HEART

2011-07-06T01:57:00.001+08:00

Another episode. I am really tired and strained from all these that I have to go through. Disappointments, disappointments and disappointments. Is there somewhere I can hide? I just want to disappear from the world so badly right now. Every life is hard in different ways, but why must it be like this for me? Can I be gone with the wind?

ITS BEEN AWHILE

2011-07-01T23:22:00.003+08:00

Last Monday, I decided to go for an impromptu hair makeover. Although I harbored thoughts of going pixie, I was never ready for that change! After an hour, I got myself a bob cut instead of a pixie because the hairdresser didn't dare to be tad merciless to my hair. Whatever it is, I MIGHT go even shorter after sporting this hair for another couple of weeks! Bathing is no longer a chore and lesser hair fall! Yay! Tell me how you feel about my haircut!

I'll try to take some outfit photos tomorrow! Gonna try to fix my closet, crash and wake up early in the morning for hot yoga!! Hitting Fitness First to try their classes from Fat Burning Circuit training to PowerJam. 5 hours of exercise with my boobsie then dinner with Peter and Transformer with my boy. This is what I can a weekend!

WITH LOVE FROM UK

2011-06-21T17:24:00.000+08:00

My much anticipated present from Big Fish! This time I'm not gonna lose it again! Meanwhile, I'm gonna replace the old watch strap for my boobsie's watch!

ME? PIXIE?

2011-06-14T21:51:00.000+08:00

Mhmm... Can you imagine me in a pixie haircut? This photo sorta makes me look like I have a short crop. Been harboring the idea of snipping my locks for a fresh look. I followed this Japanese model's blog for quite some time and her hair really caught my attention.

What's your say?

(You can always send in your opinion via Formspring!)

IT'S A QUACKIE DAY!

2011-06-13T23:33:00.000+08:00

The first person to celebrate with me... is Chong Yaping!! (Not counting my family) Supposed to date her for our virgin TWG brunch, ended up the queue was wayyy too long and we went to Swensens instead. Again... supposed to have Topless 5 but we were too full after the meal. It is like finally that we get to sit down again and catch up with each other! I miss the carefree times we had in the past. Starting to miss being a student with no worries except tests and grades.

Then we decided to take outfit photos! ;) Wee didn't plan beforehand but we actually dressed rather similar!

Top and Belt. FEP // Skirt. Bangkok (with love from Boobsie) // Bag. GF FERRE. // Shoes. Zara.

Thank you Quackie for the treat and next time it will be my turn to buy you macaroons! :>

After lunch date was dinner date with the poly folks aka the Families! Unfortunately, my camera decided to be a super spoilsport by dying before the dinner. (pissed)

We had dinner at Hatched and before my food came... my dearest(s) came!! A surprise by my two lovelies - Sereneeee Tan and my Boy! I was groping and touching like a blind girl when she covered my eyes from the back. I was trying to smell and feel the body too. (sounds very pervert I know...) And alas...! I guessed correct by the third time! I wanted to grope the boobs to make her scream but too bad... I missed it! And so my very sneaky boyfriend lied to me saying that he was working and will be there late. (there were many other lies too!!!) The two I love the most lied to me :( But well... there's always exception for that day!

After dinz, we went to bowl and home sweet home early for the pool party the next day. However, it was far from what we expected because of the bad weather and the car accident that Yang got into. :/ Thank god that everyone is fine and there were no casualties on our side! I hope everything goes well for him and hopefully the police will do a thorough investigation!

That's about all...! I'll blog about the presents I received next time. But gotta thank every single one of you who wished me well and got me gifts. :) I really appreciate all the efforts made for me and I'm sorry for being a wet blanket when it comes to this celebration. Thank you XQ for the lengthy handmade letter! Thank you Eileen for the Essie polish and your HUG voucher! (srsly I think you damn cute!) Thank you Kareen for the OPI polish set! And lastly, thank you baby for the Prada wallet and flowers. <3

I gotta sleep right now before I knock out at work tomorrow. Have a good week ahead!

xoxo

:)

2011-06-10T15:18:00.000+08:00

It's finally my big 2-0 birthday! Okay, not really big but whatever... there's the digit 2 in my age now. How I wish I'm 21 already. Gonna meet Miss Pingpong now and the rest tonight! Pool party tomorrow at John's. Sounds like a lot of photos and fun! Have a good weekend, folks!

ONE OF THOSE NIGHTS...

2011-06-05T02:51:00.000+08:00

I wish I'm under the sheets with my best girlfriends talking all night long. It is also one of those nights I wish I'm holding my boy to sleep. Lastly, it is one of those nights I want sleep my life away.

I MISS KRABIIIIII

2011-06-04T00:45:00.001+08:00

Procrastinated and still procrastinating! There's just TOO many pictures to blog for Krabi. But I'll sort them out according to activities, FnB and etc when I got the time...? Need to work out soon to be toner than my Krabi body! Office job is taking a toll on my body. Really wanna try Evolve's Fightshape classes but heard they are very expensive. I need an intense but short workout regime!

Lately, I haven't been feeling the best. I really hate it when I lose my drive and interest out of the sudden. Right now it just feels like there's nothing in particular I'm looking forward to. And I just wish my 20th birthday will just pass like another normal day.

xoxo

HOME SWEET HOME

2011-05-30T22:07:00.001+08:00

I love looking at living spaces. I love to browse through home decor magazines. I love these clean decor with a touch of elegance. If I am given millions of dollars, I would splurge it on a beautiful house. Nothing beats having a home you want to return to everyday.

Found these pictures while I was surfing for home decor inspiration. Aren't they beautiful! There isn't a lot of furnishing, but just a few signature pieces. This is what I call less is more.

I'm gonna start another blog soon! Probably on home decor and related stuff...! Gonna be my home inspiration blog and hopefully it will come in handy when I start to sell property in future. Giving people an idea how beautiful their potential home can be is better than hard selling with words.

xoxo

YOU'RE LIKE THE ANNOYING ORANGE, BUT...

I'm missing you!

YAY/NAY?

2011-05-16T22:12:00.000+08:00

Couldn't stand my horrible hair anymore and decided to just snip it! This length is just purrrfect but my ponytail looks weird. Many good hair days to come! I think I look fresher with this haircut! Short is the new long! Gonna meet my boy for dimsum in awhile, I'm gonna stuff myself with hargowz and other fried stuff (inserts guilty emoticon)

xoxo

I'M NOT OKAY

2011-05-12T23:36:00.000+08:00

i have no idea how to stop. i want to stop breathing because it just fuels the tears. i don't know what will my heart turn into after tonight. there's nothing that anybody can do. it just feels like a huge crack in my heart and a black hole in it. i think i'm losing it, i don't know if i can still love anybody with a whole heart because at the end of it. you will only get hurt. because she made me feel like this. somebody i want to give my best to when i've achieved in my life. so this is what i got in the end. this damage is irreversible. i don't know if tomorrow, the next week, the next month or the next year i'll will be optimistic. palm reading is really getting accurate, i'm an emo. suddenly i feel so alone. suddenly i just want to go to somewhere foreign and quiet. this is my only way of relief by ranting. and ranting all i want.

thanks people for the concern, i'm really not okay but i'll try to be. thanks.

UNTITLED

2011-05-11T22:24:00.000+08:00

Finally hit the road... for a jog!

Lost the motivation to blog lately and I have like 3 sets of photos yet to be uploaded. Today marks the third day of my intern and I guess it's a 'so-far-so-good' week though I had a bad, klutzy Monday.

The folks there are nice, smart and full of experience, so much so that I really feel like an intern. It is different at events company and I find it so much easier there. Maybe I'm really not born to be a corporate person? I hope I can get through the next five months and have a fruitful learning experience. Hopefully, I won't want to give up halfway because it's not really something I want to pursue for my career? Traveling to work is like easily an hour and above! My wretch bladder and bowel always give me trouble when I'm gonna take the bus but all the urgency will disappear when I step into the office. Like DUH?!

Somehow, I feel that I need to find that balance point in my life now. Work, family, friends, love and myself. Prioritizing is not the word because I don't know what I should exactly prioritize. I need to be less dependent and have my own life. Sigh, when I look at my director in the office... I'm like "What the hell am I doing?". She's only 25 or 26 but she has travelled round the world, full of knowledge and flying high in her career. Well... it must be her good karma to be born in a good family with this business for her to man. Okay, the more I go on about it, the more I'm feeling like crap.

And my deepest condolences to Gary... :( I'm sorry for your loss but I hope you'll get on with life soon and stay strong!

Goodnight folks.

xoxo

GODDESSES

2011-05-07T00:30:00.001+08:00

I'm not fascinated by the oomphs that Victoria's Secret bras give but how hot and fine looking the angels are. Fit-spiration!!! My thighs/arms/tummy (or rather my entire body) are beyond hope after I came back from Krabi. Time to work it out baby!!

BOYS AND GIRLS

2011-05-05T01:52:00.001+08:00

HOLLA FOLKS. I've been too lazy to update this space but tonight a conversation made me wanna blog. Just felt like talking about BOYS since now I'm in a relationship, I'm probably in the same frequency as all the attached girls out there.

Why girls are always unhappy with the guys?
1. Guys doesn't think like how we do
2. Guys' definitions are usually different from ours
3. Guys are also a more negligent towards the effect of their actions and words
4. Guys' are generally lazier when it comes to surprises

Anybody feels that its hard to find a romantic guy? I guess every guy is capable of being romantic in their own way but I guess for guys to be romantic, it is almost as tedious as _____________ (insert your most dreadful task in life... like getting out of a warm and comfy bed with a bad hangover) To us, being romantic can be as simple as surprise appearance on a bad day... sending a funny and cute MMS... or even making something edible! Sometimes, we don't even need you to be romantic but just giving us a little more attention aka TLC.

On the surface, we usually say we're fine, nothing's wrong, just feeling the blues and etc. But deep in our hearts, we are desperately hoping that you can find the root of the problem. (I bet the male readers are going like, "Then why don't you just say it and be straightforward?")

We don't like to say it out loud because...
1. We don't want to amplify matters and end up in arguments and disagreements
2. We hope you could catch the hint and reflect on it
3. We're tired of saying the same thing over and over again
4. We don't want to look unreasonable (haha guys are so gonna roll their eyes at this)

Most of the time, guys will assume that there's nothing wrong with them and start talking about something else. Then the girls will end up in disappointment with unspoken frustrations and look like a sour grape. Then boys will start to secretly think that we're pure PMS-y and difficult without thinking twice. So both parties hold their thoughts and words until emotions are on high tide and poof! There it goes~

I think everyone needs to understand the difference between being cool and acting cool, and the difference between acceptance and tolerance. If you realize you're just acting cool about whatever the other party is doing and trying not to flare up... then it is time for you to voice out your opinion honestly. If you realize that you're just tolerating all the time and you have the pent up frustration growing in you, that probably means you haven't fully accept who he is. Then you have to reconsider if you really do love that person because if you do, you probably would be accepting who he is instead of just tolerating him. Besides good communication, knowing your partner well and knowing what kind of relationship you are in is the key to lesser conflicts. Isn't it?

ps. To my boyfriend, this is just a general thought on boys in relationship SO don't be a paranoid potato. hahahahah i still love you! ;)

THOUGHTS THOUGHTS THOUGHTS

2011-04-20T00:58:00.000+08:00

Well, today I received a reply from Banyan Tree and they agreed to hire me with my requests all satisfied. I'm happy that they show so much interest in me and went all out to fulfill my requests. On the other hand, something is tugging me back as I think about working there. The reason is pretty unknown... I guess I'm just worried about the traveling, expenses and my time management. Of course not to forget, the expectations from the company. I guess I'm just gonna take a dive and go ahead with this! Anymore thoughts will not help at all... Just hope I don't dread my decision and enjoy my time.

Been off the "workaholic" track for quite some time and I'm starting to feel all weird to think of what's gonna happen after April. I guess in future I shall make my breaks short and sweet, in case I lose my drive. The bfprawn is gonna enlist on 8 Nov which is pretty faraway. Thankfully, my intern will end before it so I can spend some quality time before he serves the country!

Gonna turn in now and wake up in another 5 hours for work. Sigh!

xoxo

ps. Don't we all wish that we have a clear definition of our life and have a strong passion for something?

HELL YEAH KRABI!

2011-04-17T04:12:00.000+08:00

After reviewing the entire Krabi trip's album, I've picked out about 288 photos for blogging. Gawd... it's gonna be pictures spam! I'll TRY to do the post soon since my baby camera is not with me till Friday! I'm gonna get some sleep before I really turn into a stone at work tomorrow.

xoxo

PREJUDICE NO MORE

2011-04-17T04:01:00.000+08:00

Before I leap into the Krabi trip post, here's an overdue overseas post on my previous JB trip! Honestly speaking, I used to dislike the idea of my family and friends going on frequent JB visits. I'm worried about their safety because of stories I've heard from Singaporeans and Malaysians (not talking about you Bla! hehe). However, after my first mini road trip to JB, I sort of start liking it! The wonderfully cheap food, shopping and entertainment changed my mind. (hahaha typical Singaporean?)

That day we went out in five to KSL mall, Jusco Supermarket and DimDo Seafood for crabbbbbs! Quite a short and awesome day! I shall let the photos do the talking! ;)

HI XQ AND FRIENDS! (hehe, my sibs have a weird liking for Yoshi)

Cuzzie, Me, Sis!

Sometimes I do wonder how she'll look like if she starts dressing more feminine! Me likey her eyes and vampire teeth!

This stuff is awesome!!!

Gluttons!

My pesky sister...

And...

My kiddish brother.

Hugeeee crepe! It was damnnnn crispy! (thumbs up!)

Me, Brother, Aunt May!

In the mall, we saw this super cutesy Jappy/Taiwan kawaii-style stall! Too bad we didn't have the time to try!

Then we went for a movie (pretty light installation on ceiling) - World Invasion - Battle of L.A! Some people felt that it's a crappy show but I think it's pretty touching although the plot was very lame. Imagine a squad of 5 defeated a whole fleet of water-fuelled alien army. Like duh?

After movie... Jusco and tea!

Ain't the cake so cute looking?!

Brrrrrr-rrrry lovey! :)

Then it's seafood time! This place have decent crabs and awesome "satays"!

This chilli sauce is SEX.

Sorry crabbies :(

Salted yolk crab!

Black pepper crab!

The crabs were very. very. satisfying! Went back to Singapore with a big round tummy..!

Oh yes, the other thing I like about JB is for the cheap magazines!!! They're SO cheap! I feel so cheated for buying the Taiwan version of Vivi in Singapore because it is really cheaper in JB! Next time, I'll be there to stock up on my monthly "bibles".

Pretty much done for this post! :>

xoxo

2011-04-15T10:40:00.002+08:00

Tsk, he always spoils my surprise plans and laughs at my failure! Decided to do something really simple to commemorate our 2nd month together. It's a happy 2nd month cause we haven't fought. (Can't help to be happy about that cause of our natural bad temper)

I think love can really change a person. I've been that kinda whatever/i-don't-give-a-damn/stop-it-already kinda person. I would say the "cool" kinda character (NOT complimenting myself) like the just can't be bothered sorta. Like I would put all my emotions at the back of my head and move on. But recently, I think I've changed quite a little (or more?). I don't know how to put it but I think I've become more sensitive and mindful about my words and actions. Haha, I guess I'm just feeling more emotionally vulnerable. Bet a handful of you feel the same too! Probably because we don't wanna lose what we have now? Mhmmmmm...

XOXO

ps/ Hope the new layout is better for viewing! Formspring widget is located at the end of the page!

ps// Going for training at 5 and meeting Eileen a.k.a pinkpiggg for dinz tonight! ;) I bet it's another camwhoring day. Muhahahaha

BEPPU OR AJISEN?

2011-04-15T10:23:00.001+08:00

My level 4 Ramen 18! I swear it was soooo good! I'm a fan of spicy food! Imagine more than 20 drops into my usual bowl of Soup Spoon's tomato soup? It was tad spicy that I went red! The fried chicken that came along with it were godly crispy and tender! Loooove it!

The event at Fullerton Hotel was easy-peasy work but it's a damn boring job! Walked all the way from Fullerton Hotel to Chinatown for Buppen Ramen (I think we're crazy or something)! Met MabaoTay (Serena) and Cynthia on the way! Feels like it's been SO long since I met them (Fatticia you too!) Poly week 1 is starting in a few days time! It feels strange to me now cause I'm a graduate! I will miss the times when I people sightseeing in school, miss the times with my friends, miss the times when we're stuck in a dilemma while deciding which canteen to go, miss the crazy rush hour times when I'm late and miss the times choosing outfits for school. Last but not least, I miss the projects crunch times cause it sort of bonds up the group and getting the sense of accomplishment at the end of it.

XOXO

IT'S A BLESSING

2011-04-13T03:02:00.000+08:00

I must have done a lot of good deeds in my past life to enjoy the companionship of both my "BF"s. Seriously, I feel sooo loved looking at this photo and when they both of them agree with each other on things like me being stubborn etc~ It feels like having the best of both world! It's really a blessing to have both my best friend and boyfriend close together as friends. Lubchewzxs two!

Teehee, now that I dare to kiss her... she refuses to kiss me back. :(

I wonder why am I like 2x darker than him. My Zai Nan! Forever stay at home tv/ps3 or whatever~

And HI Mingming! I don't know how often you visit this space but I miss those confessional chats we have! Hehehe hope U get the best outta your NS! Be the most aiseh commando!

MY SG! HEHEHE

WHATCHA LOOKING AT! @.@

Serene: "Like nude siol!!!"

Monster peeing machine!

XOXO

Impromptu swimming session in light drizzle, endless laughters and camwhoring. Showered and headed off to Gardens with empty stomachs. Impromptu L4D after dinner (wasn't really a good choice tho) and holla! I killed 49 zombies! MM said I'm not too bad for a first-timer, just that I suck at navigation.

Scenario: Jumping onto a high ledge

MM: Okay, walk first then jump.

Me: *Walks* Then?

MM: Jump!

Me *Jumps* Eh?? Still cannot leh!

MM: WALK AND JUMP AT THE SAME TIME LA!

And I'm always the one attracting the witch. But whatever, I'M NOT TOO BAD FOR A FIRST-TIMER! Okay, shall post the remaining photos soon! Krabi post shall wait cause it's WAY TOO MUCH to blog about. Event work at Fullerton tomorrow with friends and bf! Goodnight folks!

I MISS KRABI

2011-04-09T23:31:00.000+08:00

I'm backkk and I'm missing my Krabi lifestyle badly! This trip is pretty awesome (minus the day 1 accident and my fever - most damned thing) with the 4 other couples! I wished we had booked the pool access suite instead. The weather was kind to us by not raining!

24/5 with the bfprawn made me feel so weird when I woke up this morning. :( Thank you GDD for taking care of me when I'm sick (still can't believe I was down with fever) and writing me such a loveyyy card! Honestly, I'm very surprised and that was the least I would expect you to do! I always smile when I read the card (partly because of your handwriting muahahahah) and I really think its super sweet for you to write those stuff cause of your I-DON'T-CARE attitude. :) I've nothing better to say else that I love you!

Hahaha aite, sorry for being one big cheeseball here. Shall upload the Krabi pictures soon! There's like a total of 596 picturres?! Sigh! But well, you can check my Facebook for the Krabi photo albums!

Dread to work tomorrow and I wish I can go on holiday forever!

WANDERLUST

2011-04-03T22:54:00.000+08:00

MEHEHEHEHEH, CAN'T WAIT ANY LONGER FOR TOMORROW!

In another 7 hours, I'll be up to get ready.
In another 11 hours, I'll be on the plane.
In another 14 hours, I'll be on my way to Sala Talay.
And hola!!! 5 days of sun, sand and sea plus awesome company + bfprawn!

Back to reality - Gotta pack my bag, paint my holiday nails, bathe and catch some beauty sleep! KRABI PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE BE GOOD!

xoxo

ps. Have fun people! I'll be back on 8 April! ;)

BRUNCH WITH BFPRAWN! (LIKEH FINALLY)

2011-03-30T12:09:00.000+08:00

We finally had breakfast together! The lazy ass always sleep till late or rather at least past 1pm! Back to KPO for the second time and I still love the breakfast set! I LOVE THE SCRAMBLED EGGS! Its. Yummehlicious..! Would love to make an American breakfast for my bfprawn/lovelies/family next time! Walked the town after brunch and there's so many things I wanna buy. :( There's always a lot of stuff I wanna buy when I don't have the money. Duhz.

Anyway, I hope people in Thailand are gonna be fine and I hope my Krabi getaway will come true! Saw the news last night and found out that mid-South Thailand is flooding and raining non-stop. Seriously, I should stop working and enjoy life till 2012 cause I really think the world is coming to an end. (Maybe I'll laugh at this post next year?)

xoxo

I LOOKED UP INTO THE NIGHT SKY AND SEE A THOUSAND EYES STARING BACK

2011-03-28T03:26:00.000+08:00

Finally got my smokey eyes right!!!

Inspired by Dior colors - Silver and Navy Blue. & If anybody noticed closely, the blending isn't even! Need more practice and perfection to it! My left eye is more of the wing/cat-eye shadow blending! Sort of look more sultry with that winged smokey eye eh?

Found my perfect red lippie, and next it shall be my perfect pink lippie! Now that I've gotten my smokey eyes right, I shall attempt the spring/summer clean and pink look! Makeup is every girl's magic! :$

ps. Pardon my excessive camwhoring!

Post-prom party was at Butter Factory! Thanks Joey for driving us and not forgetting blasting dance songs in the car! Unfortunately, I just don't get the hype when I'm in the club? It seems that the crowd and the rowdiness always kill my mood! I was out of the place after 2 drinks. Blehhhz

The carpark looked like a nice place for photos!

Joey - Pre-party jigglings!?

Awww Pawan!

Most of the people said I look like Marilyn Monroe (except the body figure part) for the entire night. I guess it's the dress colors and my lips!

My BLA!!! (Hao xiang nizzzz!)

Amybaby! My clubbing kaki cause we always cling to each other in clubs! We are the pair that never got hyped up in clubs all the time. :$

BOIFRIEND

Hahaha, before we all start falling over...

Stuff from Prom!

CUTE ISN'T IT? I LOVE LRM!

"Oscars Award"!

One of the best moments of the night is winning the 'Most Fashionable Award'. Thinking about it, its pretty surprising that I got the award cause I look super 'locok' / sloppy during projects submissions period. Plus the fact that I wore a lot of shorts and slippers outfit for this semester! Nevertheless, thank you LRM Committee for the award! Topshop! I'm coming for youuuu soon!

On another note, I really dislike my falsies that night cause it was SO long! I looked damn vamped up and perhaps I should have wore my normal contacts too. Looking at how much I spent for prom sort of make me cringe a little but well... it's once a lifetime! It would be nice if I ever get to go bfprawn's commissioning dinner next time! Hehehe

PRE-PROM!

2011-03-24T15:35:00.003+08:00

Here's some late photos before the prom! It was soooo sick and tiring to looking for accessories because everything needs to match in details! I had a real hard time trying to match my prom dress with shoes and accessories! Total damage was near $200! Not as bad as Donn's $500 outfit! Hehe. Sogurt after a long day of hunting!

I see my boobsie!!! and Aggy!

RED VELVET CAKE FTW! Too bad they didn't have chocolate and coco crunch topping :(

Heheh we look so blissful after Sogurt. N I realized both of us have quite a few moles around our mouth. Mhmm!

Cutesy!

SOGURT FANZSX

After days of prom stuff, we crashed Serena's crib to experiment with makeup stash!

My usual makeup stash!

My nail colors collection! I love Essie and PA colors! They are gorgeous, have good drying time and nice texture!

Silver smokeyyy eyes for Serena.

Light gold and bronze eye makeup for Leeshen!

The room lighting did nooo justice to the makeup!

Taadaa!

Spent hours doing their makeup and nails with XQ! Pretty fun cause it feels like a girlie PJ night! I didn't do my own makeup cause I can never be satisfied with my skills. So I went to Bobbi Brown for makeover and found my new fav red lippie!! Got my hair dyed to coffee/chocolate brown too! No more 3 colors in my hair! Did big curls for prom too!

3/4 done!

I'll blog about prom later! Kinda sleepy and slightly hungry now. Maybe gonna grab some sushi, head over to bfprawn's place for dinz then to npco chalet!

xoxo

ps. BOOBSIE PLEASE HAVE A SAFE AND FUN TRIP TO BKK! LUBCHEWXZS!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY FINNYBABY! (EDITED)

2011-03-20T03:39:00.002+08:00

HEHE SORRY NURUL BUT I REALLY LOVE THIS PHOTO THAT MUCH ^^

Happy "20-TEEN" Birthday to you Nurul!!!

Its awful that we didn't get to celebrate with you properly but I'm glad you enjoyed the surprise! It was one exciting surprise we ever had and it was pretty funny too. Hope the cake is yummeh! Eh babe, we need to chill out together soon pls! Love you and stay funnnn and pretty!

Check out the towel around her! She was gonna bathe then we surprised her :)

Thanks to Nurul's friend, we managed to surprise her!

Happy birthday Finny!! We lubchewzsx! ^^

And the bfprawn was our live navigator! I totally forgot how to go to Nurul's place and her block number!

That's for all! :>

MY NOT-SHY BOYFRIEND

2011-03-20T03:26:00.001+08:00

Me: "Check my formspring! Somebody said you look good eh~"

Him: "Of course! That goes without saying!"

(Okay uh, he was just kidddddding~)

Then after he saw these pictures...

Him: "Awwww, my prawn so pretty (trying hard not to praise myself)"

Me: "HAHA WTH. Just say you're good looking then!"

Him: "Hmmm, really? But I don't think so? I where got good looking... Never la :$ "

(LIKE SERIOUSLY!)

I think we are the thick-skinned people (but probably not as thick as Donn hahaha oopz). Sometimes, its funny how contrasting our preferences are but we are not that affected by it. Whatever I like to eat/drink/etc, he hates it. -_- Also, considering how "I-don't-care" kinda person we are, I wonder what would it be like when we fight! Haven't been in a relationship for like more than 3 years and it felt alien to me initially. But now I'm getting used to this and loving it. :) I would really wanna thank the people who liked my new relationship status on FaceBook too!

2 more weeks to Krabi-baby!!

HI BREASTIE!

Ever wonder why we call each other 'breastie'? I don't really know how it came about but its like bestie + breast cuz it feels more... intimate and close to heart? Hehe or its just that we have boobs fetish. Ahem!

Another one good chilling session at breastie's new place! We went to the gym-knocked out in less than 1 hour, tan and swim (more like a failed attempt)! Feels niceee to be pampered by her cuz I fell asleep while masking our faces and she removed my mask and toned my face! Awww but I can't forget how she kept trying to wake me up and disturbing my beauty nap :@ I can't wait for another Sentosa/Delmar/Wavehouse session! Chiulee and girls! We need to do this soon pls!

On random note, to my dearest breastie... I love you very much and that I really hope a good guy comes along and treat you really well. To an extent that it seems as if you're bullying him! I'm sad and tired of seeing you attracting badass and real assholes. If the next guy turns out to be another asshole, I'm gonna be real nasty to him! Breastie, don't ever look back and don't ever think of yourself lowly. I believe there's somebody out there that will love you genuinely and see your flaws as nothing. :) You're great and pretty without a doubt. 6 years and still counting!

MINI PARIS!

2011-03-18T03:24:00.000+08:00

Meet Mini, Paris and Joey!

The not-very-mini Mini!

Sad/Tired Dog

That's how Mini sleeps. Hahahahahah

Paris!!! Uber sweet little cute thing!

Check out her stuck out tongue (I was scratching her!)

The punk-mischievous expression! Damn cute!

Awwwwz <3

Sneaky face (Eyeing my camera secretly hahaha)

Aloha!

For all the curious folks out there - Meet my boyfriend! :)

All my worries are gone and I'm a Leisure and Resort Management graduate! No supp papers and no D for this semester. Though I'm not feeling extremely happy about my grades but well this is my best semester ever! (First distinction ever!) I'm happy that I've met more friends this semester and they are those I can talk and chill out with. :) You guys know who you are - Eileen / Yanyang / Edmund / Serena / Leeshen and co. Poly life won't be the same without you guys! I'm so gonna do a reflection on what I've gain from these 3 years!

My future looks blurry because I have too many options and I need to prioritize them. Many people encourage me to continue studies but I really have no intention to do so. Studying something I'm not interested in is seriously a waste of time. I hope I'll not be regretful about any choices I make for now.

Right now, I'm looking forward for Prom, my girlies dates and Krabi! I'm happy and satisfied with my life, my family, friends and boyfriend! :)

xoxo

THIS SHOULD BE THE FACE WHEN YOU LOOK AT DPD NOTES

2011-03-03T11:30:00.001+08:00

Like ''O_O... uh.....

Wahahahaha love this kitty's expression! It's sooooo cute and funny! Well, it's actually showing how dreadful water is to a cat! I really want a pet cat now, pleaseeeeeeeeee. I can share my tuna dinner and milk with it!

SO SCREWED FOR CLUB

2011-03-02T05:28:00.001+08:00

Woaaa, I really can't wait for exams to be over. I feel like I can sleep for 24 hours after this paper! My eyes are sooo tired and dry now. And I'm like having mind block?! Read 10x and I still can't register info into my head. Seriously annoying.

PRETZEL-LOVIN'

2011-02-20T00:15:00.004+08:00

Pretzel addiction!

It's been so long since I blogged. Pretty much ups and downs recently and time passed so quickly. Now it's the study week then exam weeks and holla....graduation! There goes 3 years and I'm surely gonna miss it.

Things to YAY about:

1. Silver for NAPFA ( All As except a D for 2.4km, sigh!)

2. As for Ebizz, Spa and B for Club Project!

3. Being loved and in love! ;) (I've got more than just a cupid for Valentine's day! Hahahaha)

Don't wanna mention things to be "nay" about since it will only dampen my mood. So many plans going on after exams. Events, dates, meet-ups with my girlies, prom and Kraaaaabi!!! Can't wait for another 2 weeks to pass by and get into the holiday mood! On the other hand, I have been burying myself in deep thoughts about what exactly I should do after graduation. I really hope I can make the best out of my choice and make sure it is a fruitful one. Sighz! Decision-making is not what I'm good at.

xoxo

ps. good luck for all everyone's end-sem tests!

HI BOOBSIE/BREASTIE/BESTIE

2011-02-07T22:53:00.002+08:00

Urgh, I'm SO lazy to edit/upload photos! It's February already... less than 1 month to liberation! Shall sleep by 11.30pm tonight and be prepped up for tomorrow's NAPFA 2.4km training. Haven't run for months and I think I'm gonna pant like a dog tomorrow. A silver at least pleaseeeee.

JUST (A LITTLE TOO) NARCISSISTIC

2011-02-06T03:58:00.002+08:00

Back to Chinese novels!!! I read half of it in less than 2 hours!

Holla! Spent most of my CNY time on my bed sleeping and lazing. Lacked of the energy and excitement this year. Sort of expected this kinda celebration after Gramp's departure.

I miss him. The house feels different now, it is empty and lifeless. Taking red packets from him was a pleasure because I can see the joy on his face. I miss how everyone gather for reunion dinner and how I get to sit beside him during dinner. He likes to ask the same things, but his occasional cheeky questions never fail to make me laugh. There's just so many little things I miss him for... Everyone, please cherish your old folks. :)

MOODY NIGHT

2011-02-02T02:03:00.000+08:00

Too tired/lazy to say anything more. TP tank is so comfy! Think I'm getting another black one! Chinese New Year feels so boring and sucky and I'm wearing my old clothes instead. Yawnz.
