Welcoming 2009

Photobucket
*Annual Report cover I did for fun! =D If only the client was as crazy as me huh huh?

So here I am on X'mas eve, stuck in the office. I mean we're totally allowed to take the half day off, but I figured... now is the best time to make good rapport with the bosses and the rest that are staying back. Afterall, X'mas is the spirit of giving... therefore I'm giving up precious sleep time for this.... Hmmm maybe it's not that worth it in the end... haha... Hope everyone's having a good X'mas.

Love, hugs and kisses all round.
Good Bye 2008

Jobless Annonymous No More

I'm finally working! Like a proper graphic design job at a design firm! After one day, I really do like it. How many people can actually say that they like their jobs? So this has left me only my weekends to squander time away... Mahjong with Aisyah, Charlotte and my dear Sonia who has returned for a visit from London, Going Ikea, partying with the girls, having a sleepover at the boyfriend's, visit to Kinokuniya downtown. Time seems to past so fast when you're having a damn good time. Finally, that hole in my life has been covered up with much joy. I'm on top of the world! =D

So as expected, I will be ignoring my blog for a little while till everything in my life starts to get a little less hectic. I told you something good will be up soon right? =D So the holidays are approaching, hope everyone has good fun now yer hear?! =)

Photobucket
Cheers from me to you!

Soon, Imma wear this to work! =)

Yippie yip yip.

3 girls, 2 Buffets and a really big Party!

Zouk Out was pretty fun. Some people might say spectacular, but I'm just going to say fun, cause at the end of the day, it's just the company that makes your day. The music was pretty good, the alcohol sucked but the friends made it gurreeatt. For all you non-Singaporeans out there... Zouk Out is an annual beach party hosted by Zouk Club and is attended by over 25,000 people. Honestly, I had a feeling there might have been as many foreigners as there were locals.

Photos!

Photobucket
My new bowler hat... =D Like finally... And my little heart badge I never leave home without now!

Photobucket
We preferred the grass to the sand.

Photobucket
Miss Hawtness... Also known as Miss Drunkness for the night. hehe.

Photobucket
A kind staff gave the float to us! It was our cushioning for the night.
And the lovable Miss Charlotte Chew!


I might be really getting too old for this... Zouk Out 2009? I would... if Ezra was going to with me that night but NO CHANCE... Meh. At least he gives free water. Pui! =P

******


Anyways, Ezra and I had planned a stay at the Rasa Sentosa Shangri'La for Sunday. Well, it was more my idea since we always wanted to like have a mini getaway. The poor boy was exhausted after working for nearly 24 hours straight. However, we were rewarded with a comfy bed, 2 buffets and a whole lot of sleep. =D


Photobucket
Our favourite photo. Period.

p.s Rasa Sentosa's standard has really dropped. Sadly, it's pretty disappointing in terms of food and facilities. They should really do some major upgrading!

Have a great Week Ahead. I'm Outtie!

And she's off.

So I'm going to be really busy this weekend. Charlotte and I are going for Zouk Out and won't you believe it's our first time in 22 years. Kinda odd when we used to go clubbing thhhhaaaaaattt much. We're probably staying the whole night, only because transportation is going to be a killa biatch for us. Anyways Sunday late morning, will finally get to be Ezra and we have something special planned... =D I'm uber excited!

Anyways here's some pretty photos from my trip to Barcelona almost 2 years back, in the magnificent Gaudi designed apartments.

Time to Say Goodbye

Photobucket

Who doesn't love shoe sales! I'm selling off my shoes which most women would consider a stab in the heart cause really, which lady wants to part with her shoes. However, thankfully for me and maybe quite shockingly, I am not a shoe person. If I could do a Nicole Richie and walk barefooted everywhere, I would! Anyways, presenting my shoes!

New York, New York

Photobucket
Tee: Holland Village, Skirt: H&M, Belt: frm Malaysia, Shoes: Wheelock Place

Actually, that's not true. I've been to New York, twice. Just got this tee because it took the mick out of people who wear the I heart NY tee, but haven't been there yet. I do like New York but at the same time, the last two times I went there, I felt very exhausted at the end of each day just doing nothing. The hustle and bustle of the city is maybe not very much for me... =(

Anyways, I'll be blogging less for the next few weeks. I'll be busy prepping for my new room, new website and new blog. Expect new fun stuff when everything is done. Hopefully. =)

Lots of Love to everyone!

Little Update:
Here's the first month of the 2009 calender I'm making.
Feel free to download it and stick it on your wall!

Random Clicking


"Enjoy the little things in life, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things."
-- Antonio Smith


I do apologize for the lack of fashion entries and or including more on the stuff I make! As most of you would know by now, my room is under major renovations and most of my goodies are still in boxes. In fear of my mother's wrath when it comes to small messes, I'm gonna leave them alooonnnee.... Anyways due to lack of integrity on the contractor's part, renovation has been extended for another 2-4 weeks. Sighs. I'm not even sure if everything's going to be unpacked by New Year's, though only by the Chinese New Year I'll be able to give everyone a video tour of my room which I am so excited about, especially my customized wardrobe that's white on the outside and red on the inside, and my one of my favourite ceiling lamps i chose which has wooden aeroplanes hanging around it (fitted in the bathroom so that I can look at it and smile while in the shower. hehe. My dad asked me if I missed being a child for which I replied, I still am).

So here's another random entry about things I'm looking at now:

Find precious bits of jewelry at Sea Unicorn. I love them all.

Swimming - what real men do while boys play football

Seventy-five percent of our planet is water - can you swim? -unknown author

Tee: UO, Belt: Vintage, Skirt: AA

So the boyfriend and I made our way to the swimming pool today. I with much excitement, he with much trepidation. I am now announcing to the world that... Ezra cannot swim, not only that, but he sinks like a rock. I put the S in swimming and he puts the S in sinking. Maybe it has something to do with the fact he has very very very little fats in his body and the only part that floats is his head cause its totally full of air. haha... I know I'm going to get it later when he reads this. However, today I'm proud to announce that he has learnt to float and swim! Okay, it's not like he's an Olympic swimmer, but I suppose seeing the little kids next to us kicking like their lives depended on it, motivated Ezra to do the same. It was really cute seeing him swim from afar. hehe. And I do have every right to tease him since I can swim well (diver's licence and all), so don't say I'm mean cause you haven't heard him tease me about not sharing food. (inside joke which I will NEVER share) Hmph.

All in all, a beautiful day!

A Message of Love



“You can become blind by seeing each day as a similar one. Each day is a different one, each day brings a miracle of its own. It's just a matter of paying attention to this miracle.”
- Paulo Coelho


I'm the sort of person who's easily affected by people around me. When I see you cry, I'd probably cry with you not knowing what's even going on. When you're happy, I will laugh the loudest when you say the craziest things. And lately, a few of the people I love are having problems which I wish I could help solve, but I can only assure them that everything will be alright.

Although people would think I know nothing about life, I at least know that everyone needs to be happy and deserves to be happy. I won't tell you, you only need yourself to be happy, but to look for things that make you happy and don't look back. Note, that I'm talking about things that you think make you happy but actually do. And if you're not sure what makes you happy anymore, look to the people who love you because they sincerely want to make you happy.

OOo... I said happy 7 times.
So here's somethings that made me happy. And that's 8!

1. Look at pastel colours. They calm your mind.
Photobucket

2. Don't give love up. Because it always has your back.
Photobucket

3. Don't forget those who care and forget those who don't.
Photobucket

I wanna thank those people out there who held my hand when I was down and know that I'm always here to hold yours too!
