post outings

2010-10-20T21:55:00.039+08:00

Back to blogging! Life's been really good for me so far, had lots of fun! :) Meeting up with my polymates, my sec school mates and sissy these few days and really enjoyed their company. And I sinned in online shopping again! Bought 5 tops and 2 dresses so far. Gosh, when can i stop this online shopping addiction! But tops that I bought were mostly basics and casual so it's so gonna be comfy for school. And got myself some accessories from F21. HEART THEM TO BITS.

Dinner with Sissy at Ootoya -Orchard Central, food there taste reasonable and portion was quite huge IMO. Food there was different compared to other Jap restaurants that I've been to as they don't serve sushi, sashimi or ramen. This is one shop that actually has a queue in the persistently empty Orchard Central. Anw, I loved Orchard Central for its quietness and no crowds. :)

Lunch at Botejyu@JP with my dearies. Pork okos was awesome. A must try IMO.

Sch starts once again

2010-09-20T14:11:00.000+08:00

After a short hiatus of break from school, tomorrow I'm going back school once again! HAHA. Dread econs so much. What to do! I promise I'll try to squeeze out some time and update my blog more often and includes more pictures. Till here, more rest. 6hrs of lectures for 3 times/week is so draining. I must motivate myself. :) I still feel like a working adult now although I'm a full time student. Can you believe it! Seriously I have no campus life at all. :(

To update a bit, I can't believe I spend over 200 bucks on online shopping for the past 2 weeks. Please give me more reasons to save up.

1 week plus of holiday

2010-09-10T12:17:00.000+08:00

Time to relax abit for this week and next week as im having 1 week plus of holiday! Priority things to do in my TO-DO-LIST: SHOPPING. I need to buy blusher, sandals and some skincare products, which also means I GOTTA scrimp and save for this month! And not forgetting to revise my econs, poa, maths 1 and pbf. Madness.

Sadly, my uncle passed away ytd evening from stage 4 lung cancer. It's disheartening and thought me to value life and to view life in a different perception. Life's so fragile. Make every minute counts. We should be blessed to be healthy and happy.

Starts of sch term

2010-08-28T23:35:00.000+08:00

School has been ok for me so far though it can be quite tiring to have 2 modules a day with barely 30mins of break interval. Hope I can still manage my work and studies well as it gonna be a challenge for me! Spent my POA lesson alone, really all alone throughout the 3 hrs lecture. And it was so pathetic! But I guess I'll get use to it soon. Not to mention econs is really really a killer for me as I have alot of difficulties understand what the lecturer was teaching for the first lesson and throughout the lecture I was like... WTF is the lecturer talking about? Ok, listen well, it only the BASICS can! How loser! I simply can't imagine going deeper into the module... Spent a total of 4hrs going through my econs notes just now and finally manage to understand the BASICS. Grrghhh.

Went universal studio with my polymates on thurs and it was really a hell lots of fun! I can't wait to upload the pictures and blog about it but I just cant find the time for the time being. Tomorrow and monday working. So I guess not any time soon. How sucks is life? Isnt it? :(

Bonitochico's 4th Birthday Bash at Zirca!

2010-08-21T22:55:00.003+08:00

Had a great time at BC birthday bash today with my dear sissy! And thanks and appreciate my dear sissy who queued patiently with me from 1pm to 3.30pm in order to enter the birthday bash. The birthday bash was quite a letdown as it supposed to let us in at 2.30pm but ended up we only got in at around 3.30pm maybe due to the overwhelming reponse of the crowds or the BC girls had a bit of last minute error. Imagine to bear with the scorching sun for 2hrs plus is no joke I can seriously tell you. And there's seriously not enough seats to accommodate all the attendees and to add on, though they mentioned on the website that the event is from 3 to 6pm but in actual fact it only lasted for 1hr. Imagine, queuing up 2hrs plus and standing throughout the event for 1hr... Killer for the legs right!

The event was hosted by Daniel Ong who really did a great job! He's so hilarious and entertaining! The runway show was truely impressive too! The models were all so professional and gorgeous. The clothes that they modelled for the upcoming collection were all so pretty! Not to mention the BC owners Velda, Viola and Rach were equally stunning too!

Lunch at Clarke Quay some jap ramen restaurant

Models runway show

Actually there were much much more pictures but I'm too lazy to post all of them up. HAHA

The BC owners (L to R: Viola, Rach and Velda) - I cant peel my eyes off Vel, she's so stunningly gorgeous! Sadly, my camera couldn't capture the girls very clearly. :(

After the bash! Love the goodie bag that BC had given us (especially the $10 BC voucher! It's certainly very useful.) BTW, Bonitochico no longer operates on bonitochico.livejournal.com ,they have changed their site to http://www.lovebonito.com/ and their debut collection will be released on 30th August! Stay tune and sign up for an account now!

Boring Saturday

2010-08-14T12:36:00.000+08:00

Decide to spend this saturday doing nothing great but read my shopaholic book which i borrowed from the library and surf the net. Movie plan with vivi cancelled cos my house's toilet is still under renovation. So which means I can't shower! Yes, absolutely. That's super silly, FYI my house only got one bathroom. I'm praying hard that it'll be ok by today else tomorrow I really gotta go somewhere else to shower. SUX TTM. Anw there's something to look forward to, I am super eggcited that I've gotten tickets for BC 4th birthday bash. This is going to be so cool. The thought of meeting vel, rach and viola real life is like OMG. Heard that they are all really pretty babes, especially Vel.

And my work rountine starts once again tomorrow. I got to work four days straight, but look on the bright side which means more money to save and spend. :)

PlayNation with my Girls!

2010-08-09T12:51:00.001+08:00

Through Vivi's recommandation for our August gathering, we went to playnation last Sat! It was pretty fun and entertaining except the fact that we had to separate into two groups and played at two different stations cos we didn't manage to get the room. And I dont really like the idea of playing outside cos we seriously have no privacy. And because of that we never play a dance game which looked SUPER ENTERTAINING AND COOL LAAAAA. Cos we can't possibly dance outside and let people see right? How throw face is that! :( As usual, my arms were all so aching after playing the wii for four hours.. well, not exactly for four hours cos in between we lunch and chatted a bit. Can't imagine if we played for four full hours straight... It's gonna be so draining! I wore my 4" BC corked wedges out for the first time today! Initial comfort was great but towards the end of the day my soles were aching like MAD. REALLY MADNESS. And it doesnt help when I need to stand throughout the 40 minutes train journey from orchard to woodlands! I swear the next time I'm only going to wear it if I go on short movies and dinner dates.

BC and huishan left earlier to have their dinner at home while the rest of us went Marche at 313 to have our dinner!

While waiting in our queue patiently, we decided to take some pictures again!

All in all, it was a great day with my girls! Hope our "vacation trip" will be fulfilled soon... HAHA.

With Pei Wen siiiiiiiiiiiiiii

2010-08-05T20:18:00.000+08:00

Met up with my dearest intership student, Pei Wen at CWP today for lunch and some shoppings! It's been quite sometime since we last met. Still remember the times when we do filing and having lunch and dinner together and being so sticky to each other. Totally missed her. We went for lunch at Jack's Place as it has set lunch promotion. Soup of the day, main course, dessert and tea for $12.50 inclusive of GST and service charge! Damn cheap can! And the meal was definitely very filling and satisfying. The staffs service were excellence too!

Some random shots (I THINK MY FRINGE SUX TTM, time to rebond. OH MAN!)

My FOTD

Work starts tomorrow. Jia you Carmen! :) And, I so wanna watch SALT! And TVD launching at 9pm. Excited too! More clothes plssssssssssssssssss. :p

New hair colour!

2010-08-04T20:42:00.001+08:00

Just came back from the salon and had my hair highlighted red! YAY! This time round I only highlighted my hair but no dye. After 1 year of recovery from past bad experience, I finally plucked out the courage to experiment colours on my hair once again! My past dye + highlight experience really scared me till I had my hair dyed back BLACK by MYSELF the day after cos I couldnt stand my hair colour then. But now, I'm super super mad happy! Although my new hair colour is not that obvious and I loved it ttm I can assure you that!!!! No pic of my face taken as I looked damn chui and pale without makeup.

My FOTD (before heading out to highlight my hair)

Ok, dread work... 14 days of PT starts real soon! :( Give me more reasons to work.

New loots!

2010-08-03T14:28:00.003+08:00

Finally sissy and my loots from HVV have arrived! And we were so shocked that HVV registered our parcel for us FOC though we opted for normal postage to save the additional $2.24! I know we are so budget. HAHA. Maybe cos our orders add up to $100 over so they gave us complimentary registered mail! YAY! Love the tie-ribbon red flats and knit top in jade! Shall reviews when i got the chance to wear them!

My HVV loots

Current condition of my wardrobe and desk :( It's so messy. Anw, back to PT job this thursday. It's so fast. Damn. But I need money for my lappy so I got to work more!

Anw, cant wait for this sat to meet my girls for lan. Woohooooo!! Miss the gossips and chit-chatting sessions!

10 days of annual leave

2010-08-01T15:26:00.000+08:00

It's me, back once again to blogging. Clearing 10 days of annual leave without going for a holiday is torturous! I absolutely have no idea what I could do for this 10 days. Maybe I'm so used to working life that now I have nothing to do it just feels so weird. Ironically, I HATE WORKING! So, being the organise me decided to list down things I have to accomplish in these 10 days. :) Ok, and here it goes:

1. Pack my study desk.

2. Pack my wardrobe (note to self: please sell/give away those clothes that I think I'll ever touch/wear AGAIN).

3. Plan more outings with my dearest friends.

4. More books please? (Should visit the library soon)

5. Spend more time with my grandparents since they are stayover at my place for a week.

6. Be more patient when coaching my brother for his homework. (It's no easy feat to grab his attention because his attention span is damn short)
7. Pamper myself with manicure and pedicure session. WEEEEEEEEEEEE!

And something to look forward to, BC is updating tonight at 8pm. I so gonna stay and rot at home and camp for Rach's launch tonight! :)))))))

Despicable me with vivi!

2010-07-21T21:33:00.000+08:00

Met up with vivi today for movies and shopping in town! Wore my BC nude wedge for the first time today and it was so uncomfy and kept biting my toes, in the end I got myself plasters to relief the soreness. I never had any problem with my other wedges before and they were all very comfy and there wasn't any problem shopping with them on for the whole day. We caught "Despicable me" however I dont find the movie great and its kinda overrated by many viewers imo though there were some funny scenes. Anw, cant wait to watch inception with peg this friday after my work after hearing so many many good reviews about this movie. Went wisma and bought a cotton on light denim shorts for $29.95! GREAT LOVE! Hope I dont get any fatter else I really cant fit into the shorts anymore.

And weeeee to my new buy from AE!

Cant wait for it to arrive! Looks casual for a lazy day out! And counting down 9 more days to the end of my full time job. No words can relate how elated I am. But still, I gotta work part time for my daily expenses. Need to curb my online spendings from now on though its really really really hard. Why women are so SHOPAHOLIC. Damn.

Back after a long hiatus!

2010-07-16T13:36:00.001+08:00

Yay! I'm finally back to blogging again. Have been working in thomson branch since May and work has been so far so good though sometimes I do encounter some really stuck-up customers who act high class and doubtful of my abilities and skills. Being a fresh grad doesn't mean my eyecheck is unaccurate and I do not have the necessary experience. Experience is one thing, but if all the people in the world prejudice fresh grads then how are we going to learn and gain more experience? Maybe I should dressed up more formal for work next time in order to look more PROFESSIONAL.Whatever, put those trash aside.

Things to look forward to in coming August!

1. Officially quitting my full time job in Nanyang Optical in end July and start working for part time in mid-August

2. Meeting Vivi for more movies and shopping treats!

3. Starts of my first uni lesson on 24th August

4. Universal Studio on the 26th August with my polymates. (This will be my first time there! So excited for all the heart throbbing rides!)

4. SIM photography club events

5. My sec school friends gathering - kite flying? (Cant wait to see vivi, bc, yi hong, shan and jy!)

6. More meetups with sissy and wardah despite our hectic schedules

7. Toastmasters event with yahui

SIM FOD was fun and met some UOL-Accounting and Finance friends! Hope we do stay in contact though. There are so many interesting CCAs in SIM, makes me wanna try out! You see, being a student makes you feel like trying out so many things but yet you dont have all the time in the world to try out everything! I guess it will be a hard time for me juggling studies and part time job since I'll be working 3 days/week. Hope everything goes smooth sailing for me. :(((((((((( Anw, I need to start my mega diet plan to lose 3kg soon. I have been gaining so much weight recently due to whatever reasons. SAY NO TO ADDICTIVE SUPPERS!

My blog is alive once again!

2010-07-16T01:11:00.000+08:00

Ok, my blog is so not dead, I'm back and so going to start blogging once again. Stay tuned! :)))))
