okay so i said i'll blog about the boy's birthday party but i haven't gotten pics from Janine yet! (who very very very kindly volunteered to help be be photographer for the party) so continue waiting for it! soon, i promise! HAHA

meanwhile, here's just a whole thrown together-no-link series of photo booth/iPhone and web images just because sometimes a DSLR cant fit into my bag and i don't own a decent digi cam ):




this was the day when i dragged ros out to starbucks to do work. she had an essay to work on and i had all my week 6 deadline projects to rush. i love ros :) from the photos you also see why i DONT take photos facing front. CHECK OUT MY FAT FACE. it is literally round?!



this is the day where the two of us planned to meet in school to attempt to do work even though we didn't have school. bukit timah suay-suay happened to flood on that day so we were stuck in a major jam. meaning we took about 2 hours to travel from Serene Centre to Coronation Plaza (which is fyi, about 5 buildings apart). we bumped into a lost rich foreigner who was trying to find his house at coronation drive, ms sonia and a bunch of annoying year 1s.



RadioHeatwave.com photoshoot/ Acoustic Kiss photoshoot! ^^

i've been tying up my hair quite alot lately. i need a haircut my hair is wayyyy too flat.


been soo obsessed with taking full length shots now that i have a "nice wall". its my wardrobe, really.


and ive been getting comments like "you've been putting on makeup recently".

errrrrrrrr, all this while you see me i have makeup on?! I haven't really left the house without eyeliner at least for quite a while now... but thats basically almost all i put on. i think the black on my eyes have just became thicker though, maybe thats why..

*throw in random photo*
didn't know Urica took this photo of me! even at work i look so stressed -.-

this was taken today! the boy got soooo excited seeing that the Studio headphones by Beats by Dr Dre were out for people to try on! These are like $700 bucks, man.

we also checked out the new mall 313@Somerset and i lovelovelove it already! Epiccentre, Zara, Forever21, Mango, Marvelous Cream, Cotton On, etc. woahhhh, wern also added 2 new jackets to his collection.

photo credits to zara.com
i love it! its like a trench coat that is suitable for somewhere like Singapore.

I can't find the image for the other jacket he got though. It's a casual brown leather jacket with a hoodie.

photo credits to zara.com

also saw this and love it! But it's so simple and totally not worth its price. i need to find someway to be rich, please. money influx!!!

but finally, something that i DO have...

photo credits to bebe.com

my 5.25" Daniela Over The Knee Boots!!!

omg love these babies, i actually wore them to school on Tuesday! Should really have taken photos eh! I was taller than alot of people i usually hang out with and that's pretty awesome HAHAHA. woooooots, i really need to find chances to wear them out more often though. Thanks bb! :D:D

p/s: is it just me or do you guys NOT blog about stuff that you have twittered about?

am at Loft now, blogging although i really ought to be rushing my assignments instead. School has been a mad rush since Week 4, ask any MCM-er and they'll tell you that. However, stuff have STILL been happening and all that so here's it!

TOTOPAL IS OUT ON THE ITUNES STORE!!!

For those who are wondering, it's an app which not only tells you the winning numbers but also to TALLY them so you don't have to manually do it one-by-one!!! Awesome app, if you ask me. Why is there no 4D equivalent? because the case with TOTO is that you usually don't just buy one set of 7 numbers. Tallying can get abit tedious so this app will help you lots. 4D on the other hand only consist 4 numbers! Don't be lazy, nowwwww.

To get this app, search the SINGAPORE ITUNES APP STORE using keywords "TOTOPAL",


click "GET APP"

and yeap, you see it right! THE APP IS ABSOLUTELY FREE.


it's kinda insane it's free cause i know how much work he has put into this app. For those who are thinking that you don't need it/ don't buy Toto. Well, I don't either, except maybe for those insane $9 million draws that everyone knows about. And, how would you know if you're gonna need it in the future? AHAHA GET IT FOLKS.

iMerlion has also featured this local app! :D

about 2 weeks ago, Angie celebrated her 21st birthday and Shuting, Sophia and I went down after work! :D


here's beaver, who we will miss on saturdays ): yes, she has awesome pretty hair.











always seems to be a crazy mad rush after work in the shop whenever someone is going out after work. ahaha.

Another mad rush upon reaching the hotel, we ran like mad pigs to get drinks, lol.



then we waited, and waited...

SURPRISE!




























Hope you had an enjoyable time, angiebunni! :D

Dunno if you guys can tell, but i love how the photos look! I'm using the Canon 50D now instead of 450D and i loveee how the quality of the photos are so much better. I'll also update about wern's surprise birthday party next week cause I haven't gotten the high res photos yet. WAIT FOR IT!

---

in week 2, Steph joined Josh & I in the Acoustic Kiss show on RadioHeatwave.com



and remember how i mentioned the mad rush i'm in the midst of in school? Well, i had wern help me with a couple of things and i didn't meet him so he emailed the files to me.

When i downloaded it, i saw this...



so cute!! love you nong time too :)

am beginning to love Thursdays more and more! I happened to be one of the luckier ones in my cohort to have a free day each week and mine happens to fall on a Thursday. I'll only be happy alternate Thursdays though cause I'm working on the odd weeks.

But today I had the day off and wern took the day off too so we spent a day together!

the day started out with eating, and eating and ended off with eating... D:



wernboy filling up the pepperlunch form

"look up!"

but in between all that food we walked from shop to shop, from Pull and Bear to Bershka, River Island and Zara. And of course, the must-visit stops, Topshop and Aldo. That's when i saw those babies.

BIBB Almond-toe Wedges from Aldo

if you know me you'll know that i have been wanting to get plain black pumps for the longest time now and I still haven't got to doing that/finding the perfect pair. This isn't what i'm looking for cause they are wedges, but i just love how it looks from the front! The photo really doesn't do the pair justice, though i don't really fancy the slant in heel :/

k nvm about that cause its about $155?

then we walked into Topshop and I was checking out the shoe rack when wern pointed out a pair of shoes that he mentioned "he would like if there was a male version cause he'll use that as combat boots". They aren't what i usually would go for but i reached out for it anyway and decided to try them on.

Ava Shiny Lace Up Hiker Boot, from Topshop


really can't stop thinking about this one now, but it's $250ish?

So i searched for it on the website and i like this pair too!


Aggie Metal Insert Heel Boot, also from Topshop

Yes, the shoes were the one who motivated me to blog. Come babies~ come to mommaaaaa.

k so people have been complaining that i haven't been updating (haha i make myself sound popular, don't i?) and so i shall! I had drawn up an entire list of things to do during my 1.5 month break but...

k anyway the highlight of my holidays.












the other side still empty...











no idea if you're able to tell from the pictures but I'm really really happy to be returning to my room everyday now just to slide my big big wardrobe (hehehe) It's the length of my room (3 metres?) and i even wanted to buy 120 pretty hangers from ikea to hang my clothes but everyone said i was crazy :/

Tons of other stuff happened during the holidays but they're all kinda in bits and pieces so I'm just gonna throw in photos randomly, hehehe.

---

Met Vicks & Yams at Coffee Club at Holland V. for a small get together (also post birthday, yes, thats how long ago it was).


my crayfish black pepper spaghetti


yam's beef baked rice (which i really feel like eating now)


vick's fish penne thing







We still wanted to hang around abit after dinner so we decided to head to coffee bean where Eli joined us after her barbeque.







---

Was supposed to meet roxy to go on a photoday at kranji on the last week of the holidays, but we ended up postponing it again. This was the first attempt to go on the photo trip, where we ended up at ikea because we were determined it was going to rain.


IKEA baked chicken leg!!!

smoked salmon oooh~

yea, as you can see, that day turned out to be a day with really fluffy clouds D:

---

On the last week of the holidays i also met up with Violet and Bjorn for a karaoke session!



---


The sushi maker that i included in my wish list for my birthday! Wern bought it for me :D

---

Okay, this entry is really a mess but i updated so i dont care. I actually have soooo many other photos on my iphone but my iphoto is missing from my mac so i'll have to fix that first before i can get those images up.

And and and I'm so sad there are hardly pictures of my face on my blog anymore! (HAHAHAA) I can never take a proper photo of myself on my iphone and my camera suckkkkkzzzzz. am a sad girl much :/

k i know i haven't blogged in too long and its really taking me ages to get this post started. I am a true blue procrastinator. I really really want to remember my 18th birthday though, considering how everything was awesome - the countdown the girls did, the dinners and lunches i had.

My fave girls from Haji planned everything for me from the 4th to the 5th and our journey started from Meritus Mandarin Hotel.





where my present was held captive

my fave brand whore, hahaha <3>


fave working partner

after angie arrived we cabbed to dinner destination, Oomphatico's! Loved the ambience, and despite having a bad impression of fusion food because of my previous experience at Wild Rocket, i really loved the food this time!

photo/collage credits to sophia!

for starters we had Pan Fried Chilli Garlic Calamari & Classic Caesar Salad. We more or less expected the usual round fried calamari rings to dip in mayo but what we were served was fantassssticcccc! (omg want to eat some nownow)

The other foods show Chermoula Crusted Seabass, "Livornese" - Seafood Stew, Grilled Crisp Skin Red Snapper, Seared Duck Breast with Duck Leg Confit Hash Cake. And for dessert the girls ordered That Expensive Chocolate Dessert and four really pretty cupcakes.



so after dinner we were just walking around the semi closed mall and guess who we bumped into! My boss from the Haji Lane store. omg coincidence or what? And he happens to share the same birthday as me HAHAHA. then we cabbed down to st james.




i love how she looks so gone in this pic but is in reality, not. hahahaha


so the girls had a mini countdown for me on the dancefloor and we decided to leave soon after cause they decided i needed some time to get my present out of the safe.

on the way to the room we also requested for ice cubes. specifically "more ice cubes" and this is what we got.

pretty angie and ice ice baby



Oh yes so the girls were dropping me random numbers throughout the day and after we camwhored with the ice bucket (HA HA HA) they gave me my last number. They were apparently jumbled up and i had to slowly guess the combination.

i looked so stressed?

typing my first combination...

1 2 3 4 5 6

...

...

...

...

...

THE DOOR OPENED!!!


on the first try!!! the birthday girl gets lucky or what!

i think i was telling them they needed to do better or smth hahaha


hair looks like seaweed here, omg



reading the handwritten note



i love the present girls! love you guys so much more! I'm really so glad to have met you guys this year and for me to have known Shuting so much better. The opening of Public has brought about pros and cons and one big Pro would definitely be working with you!

Did so many girl-sleepoever things before we finally went to bed at 5am? It was damn surprising we all managed to wake up to buy breakfast from macdonalds before checking out. I then accompanied Sophia and Shuting to Haji to work (THESE GIRLS ARE INSANE) i was so tired i got my mom to drive me home from there and they worked till 9pm?! Love them!

Oh and before i headed out for dinner, Cary and Jon managed to make their way here from Clementi in 9mins just to pass me my present! Cannot thank them enough!!!



headed to Jumbo @ East Coast later that night for a family birthday dinner. Yum yum yum to all the crabs and seafood we ate. I have no idea what to type regarding these two photos though. Oh! It was then that wern handed me a present from his mom and i felt really fuzzy wuzzy all over :)

6 Sept 2009

Doorbell rang and my mom came running into my room at 11am. "Wern is here! Wern is here!". Hilarious way to wake, but i'm not complaining. Ate the breakfast he bought then we headed out to catch a movie. We then had this fabbbb udon from some jap fair in isetan and it was soooo good.



they were super generous with the wakame and it was hand made udon. We only spotted it because we just ate pepper lunch (around the corner) but it looked sooo good i couldn't resist!

I can't rmb what we did after, prolly walk around a lil before we ended up at Din Tai Fung.


hello boyf

first time i ordered this as appetizer and now i keep ordering it

Damn abrupt way to end the day but I have no more photos! This entry is flooded with photos as it is!

7 Sept 2009

Today finally saw the end of the non-stop celebration of my birthday (not that i was complaining) and I met the crew of Beat 3 in the morning for filming. My scene for that day was to be shot at Henderson Wave.


Bumped into Joelle there. I saw yijie tweet about it just a couple of days before heading there and I had always wanted to go there.


however to enjoy the view you have to climb up these flights of stairs...

awwww~

The shooting went pretty well, but it was only after that day that i mingled with the crew/cast more and got to know them better. Serene was always present every other day other than the henderson wave scene so i felt alot more at ease. Been quite an experience though, i must say.

took a long bus ride down to town to meet Rach and Yijie for sushi after! So much for the end of the non-stop celebrations!



the two of them eat too much mayo!!

i realised my hands always look damn fat and big and ugly in photos! eww! can never be a hand model.

Based on the recollection of the celebrations i have, I think i have the right to rant about my weight, yes? I am currently at the highest weight checkpoint of my life and i feel like crappppp. It's gross how i still eat so much since my birthday?

Oh, and i had wanted to blog about this. Remember how i mentioned my dad bought a Canon 50D? Apparently that's mine now. He also got me the Speedlight 580EX-II which i brought to work to test out quite some time ago. Pardon the lighting, it is a test afterall. Lighting for photog is so damn hard!!! I'm still trying to work on it now ):

And photobucket changes the colour tone of my photos?




Hype. One of the places where they distribute this publication is at my store and i could hardly recognise it when they were placed at the common area of the store when i was working that day. I suspected it when i picked up the double cover issue and when i flipped through, boy was i impressed.

Hype used to be a super amateurish looking school publication? I still remember the previous issue being a far jump from this! I had a friend who picked up the last issue and went errr, omg? but this is awesome. I never did think i'll think this way, but if hype is gna be looking like that, i wouldn't mind joining the team in Year 3. HAHAHHAA


and then mari complained how she was bored. and how she as coming down.







don't you just love my friends? I love them :)
