hilarious find

The picture says it all. Can’t believe people still carry such bags these these days. This girl (student from NUS, oops) cos I was in the same bus as her. She’s probably a PRC but still… wah lau eh. Act cute or wat! or maybe she simply has too many things stashed inside. Makes you wonder!!

more on lemons

I dont like the song on lemons but I like lemons. The nice clean zesty smell of lemons. Anyway, I saw this of a website and it got me drooling. Anyone who can bake some? Haha. But then again, I dont know how nice lemons will taste in cakes and all, cos its not a commonly-used ingredient unlike banana or chocolate, of course.

Anyhow, the pictures say it all. Nice loh!

fool’s garden

Ahhh the band that made the infamous song and the world singing in unison….”La la la turing turning turning me around and all that I can see, its just another yellow lemon treeee” Oooh and even Tarcy Su (Su Huilun) made a cover of it. (Uh huh, i know who she is..haha) The song is plain irritating, silly tunes, stupid lyrics, basically wow, I dont know, but i think listening to it is plain foolish. And the band name sucks. Seriously. I really wonder why.

I feel like a fool sometimes, maybe that sort of made me think of that stupid song. You know, like you have thought hard on planning a surprise or working on a special project or simply wanting to dress nice and then you anticipate certain responses from people. Or at least you think they would show more affection towards you? And once you start to be in anticipatory mood, you dont get the level of compliments or appreciation (which you expect) from people. I hear of girls deliberately buying new dresses just to impress their boyfriends, but the boys just don’t seem to notice the difference. Or when you decided to adopt a different style, grow out your hair or you remember distinctively that the boyfriend said you looked nice in that particular outfit (and then you make sure you buy multiple versions of that similar style). And still, the men don’t get it?

Maybe its just us girls. Or maybe life’s cruel like that. Over time, I guess I’ve grown to develop a neutral/pessimistic view towards things and I always remind myself not to expect too much. In fact, the more you give, the returns somehow may not commensurate with the efforts put in? Anyway, I guess whatever the case is, I guess it always pay to apply reason in most situations so at least when you think rationally, chances are, you won’t or can’t really go wrong.

 

 

 

 

 

a little trivia

I like Saturdays. This is probably the only day I can get to sleep in late and basically not have to panic waking up at 3am the night before just to pee and then realising you only have 4 more hours to sleep. That is a wretched feeling and sometimes I actually hold my pee in so that I can get to laze a little longer in bed, you know, every minute counts and Im sure you have been through that before. Or U wake up abruptly at 7am in the morning and then feel oh so relieved after that when you realised its.. actually still the weekend. Phew. 

So as usual, my favourite part of Saturday will be to wake up later than usual, have a nice cup of hot milk tea with butter/garlic toast (i like toast) and read the papers while curling up at the couch. Saturday’s Life can be quite interesting with the bumper listings of what to do during the weekend, home decor/interior design (so you can see how peoples’ homes are designed and start getting inspiration for your own rooms/apartments), gardening/plants (i read that too) and car reviews (boring! Ha). I always start from the back page where you have snippets of entertainment news, and that gives me up to date on the latest celebrity gossip/updates.

I read that Tom Cruise is coming back on Oprah after the stupid “jumping up and down the couch” incident. Im not a fan of Tom Cruise so its not like it matters. What caught my eye was Oprah’s entertainment network called Harpo Entertainment. For those who watches Oprah, this is nothing foreign as it always comes at the end of the show. For me, this is something special cos I have this “weird” habit of scrutinising words that seem to stick out from the rest of the article. In this case its Harpo. Some of you may already know this so it may be redundant but anyway, my point is, the network’s spelled Oprah backwards! Haha self-indulgent perhaps or maybe just a lack of alternatives huh? Anyway, probably its just me but I always seem to notice the ending credits for eg. Gracie Films (production for Simpsons). Or Worldwide Pants for the David Letterman show. Oooh and what would be the Ellen’s one huh? Shucks I cant recall. But i kinda like Ellen (not because she’s a lesbo, but hey she is successful) but she can be pretty spastic and I think I also have a spastic sense of humour. ok.

P.S Oprah’s got quite a lot going for her isn’t it? Just see below. There is also Harpo Films. Wow.

Bananas on a Friday ~~~~

Fridays are Fruits Day. Heh, F and F. hahaha ok. Anyway, fridays at work are nice, cos its Dress-Down Fridays and generally everyone is in a good mood. And some I may add, are super HYPPPER!! Today, we had our usual dosage of bananas (all-time favourite, better grab fast before it runs out), plums (not very popular) and the Guava (the reddish one, but i thought its some Water/Custard Apple, not very popular as well). Ok, so as I was walking to the pantry. Someone said “zzzzzzzzzi”, I didnt react and I didnt acknowledge cos I wasnt exxxactly sure what that was. AND THEN! it struck me, oooh…..zapping me with the banana. Wow. Clever.

Ok so anyway, i was in the pantry and then i took 2 bananas (Not because Im greedy or terribly hungry, but thought it was nice to take another one for my colleague – btw, we usually do that for each other; thanks guys!!) And so, I walked back to my desk with 2 bananas. AND THEN! someone else said, “Eehhh, wah, 2 bananas huh?” Hmmmm, I wonder, is it a crime to take 2, or, or maybe, just maybe..she thnks im greedy and I should not be selfish as there are’nt many bananas to go around (remember? bananas are popular). I was like, ok, no lah.  I took 2 cos one’s for another of our colleague…ok so i had to come up with an explanation.

And now, my friend whom I took the additional banana for, he came back with 2. So in total he has 3 now. Who is greedy now? *nudge* *nudge*

CHEY!

 

 

 

Artiste of the Month

 

 

Carey, 38, is now tied with Madonna and Janet Jackson for the second most No. 1 albums among female artists.

 

 Mariah’s new song, “Touch my body” will jump to the top slot from number 15. The song had a record download of 286000 also topping the 277000 held by Rihanna’s song Umbrella a year ago

 

The The

There has been a slew of new alternative bands springing up in recent years. We have The Killers, The Bravery, The White Stripes, and later The Strokes, The Hives, The Thrills etc. I don’t exactly know which year these bands were formed and if my memory serves me correctly, some of these bands have already been around for a while, but only became more famous recently. With the on-slaught of The bands, I think there is also this English outfit called The The right? Oh and who’s the first band with The in their name? Its The Who right? Correct or not?

 

the top 5 lousiest movies I’ve watched (in no particular order of dislike)

The criteria to be lousy is lousy plot,lousy acting or a combination of both.

1. Inspector Gadget (yes there is a movie, and matthew broderick was well, played inspector gadget. MB was Sarah Jessica Parker’s lesser known half. i think he was also in Godzilla..?

2. AVP

Alien vs Predator. Great trailer (Remember? Population 12,000 and then 2,000 and 24..wooo.), but the movie was crap. Seriously! What’s the point of it all. Straight to video release please.

3. Lilo & Stitch

There are cute cartoons and there are also clever ones. This is neither. ok Maybe overly cutesy. Yucks.

4. TMNT

This aint no cool title. Its the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Don’t even ask why i watched it. Let me think harder…ok i remember now, its my first date movie with my beloved and we were sitting on the first row at orchard cineleisure

5. Initial D

Self-indulgent Jay Chou movie, sorrry people, i don’t really see a point of it all. The “romance” with the budding actors, the ” relationship issues” with the father. The car race. Hah. Ok, i thought Secret Garden was better ok? And Yes, I’ve watched Mandarin movies including, CJ7, Brothers-something and a host of others…hahha

 

facebook woes

I don’t have a facebook account and I don’t think I want to cos the idea of having it and only having 13 or 30 friends is frankly, quite depressing. And what about the endless number of applications which would be emailed to you and what with being poked, or superpoked for that matter, sucking vampires and petting of fluff friends (but the piece of tofu was pretty cute, haha) and sending drinks and who is the most sexy etc etc etc. Wow, endless fun eh? Hah. Already seeing emails at work make me cringe and the idea of receiving 1000 facebook emails all at the same account makes me nervous. 

Nevertheless, I know of some who takes pride in their facebook accounts and update them regularly, keeps them well-organised so it won’t look like a mess with applications all over the place. That’s nice. Then again the work of constantly having to log in and update, so people can view new pictures/new info/profile can be at times tiring. I even heard of people who upload plenty of multimedia files (videos, photos etc) and now have to enhance the privacy settings so that only certain people have access to certain files. Wow that level of secrecy! Dungeons and dragons or what. Which makes one wonder, if you have 30 friends, that could be quite easy? Friend 1-15 can view File A-C, ok click, click, check check done. But imagine this… 300 friends.

Ok, My take is, you either post everything or just post selected stuff. Isnt being on Facebook supposed to make you more accessible to the public or should I say “public”?? Otherwise, aren’t you just making things more difficult for yourself and come to think of it,isn’t facebook supposed to be pretty fun as well?

P.S and what is the success rate for people finding their old friends? Or is this just an avenue so people can look at your pictures and bitch about it? Incidentally, i learnt that many people are on facebook simply because they have received many invitations to do so, but there is always the option of saying no..? Oh and what ever happened to Friendster???haha

exes

Exes. Girlfriend or Boyfriend who wants out of a relationship. I wrote about love in my previous entry so i suppose break-ups is a natural transition. Some individuals become friendly with their exes even though they are no longer together. Others probably hate each other guts and would much prefer the other disappearing from the face of this earth. So this brings to the next question: How cordial should one relationship be with the other once he/she becomes your ex? I think its possible to be on friendly terms with your ex, but not to the extent of talking to him/her so regularly that the frequency is as much as your *gasp* current partner?! 

Sounds logical isnt it? I mean, if you are talking so much to your ex, thennn shouldnt he/her be with you now then since both of you seem to have so much to talk? Yeah yeah, but Im just need someone i can confide in, and i cant confide in my bf/gf because I kinda like need a 3rd party/neutral perspective? Uh huh, ok, but don’t you have your friends (boys and girls), siblings, colleagues, 1800 helplines, magazines forums (Dear Editor, I have a problem….), pets, plants which are also possible avenues for you to communicate? I mean, these are seriously very neutral and certainly 3rd parties whom you can utilise?

Anyway, keeping close contact with exes = treading on dangerous grounds and disastrous results are always, if not almost guaranteed. Lets put it this way. Who will like their partner being so close to their ex? You start to wonder, how can i trust him/her? Why in the world is he/she talking to him/her? Am I boring? Does our relationship suck? Is he/she talking to the ex about our sex-life? Are we going to break-up now? Sigh. See. And this is just the beginning of the on-slaught of questions that’s yet to come. Anyway, the case in point is, think hard before you act. And i mean, think long and hard. Actions lead to consequences (naturally) and before you make the next move,  just consider a brief moment what may potentially happen and whether you can handle what will potentially befall you.

Quote of the Day

“Suffering produces perseverance, perseverance, character; and character, hope”

This is an extract from a really old book and when I say really old, it is reallllllllllllly old but hey, its still a good book.

Think about it, this is so true aint it? Very much applicable to our lives.  Its hard that life’s tough but  I think that as we experience setbacks, we should pick ourselves up from it, and as you are determined to get yourself out from the rut, you become a stronger person. Builds up your character and then you learn to become a better person and you know how to deal with it the next time round. You are then hopeful for the future as things turn around and the world seems to become a much better place. It will be, because you make it so.

Its interesting how you can pick up lessons on life from this book and thats why I like it. This is an extract from Romans 5:3. Yup, it’s a really old book. It’s none other than the b.i.b.l.e.

 

 

Teeth aka Vagina Dentata

If you’ve seen my previous blog entry, i wrote about watching this show. I actually caught it and well, its not exactly fantastic per se but i guess it sets the boys squirming in their seats. The boy from Nip/Tuck, cant remember his name, something Hensley (ok just found out its John Hensley) is in the show as well, so so you can look out for him. But he always reminds me of abit Michael Jackson/Monkey , so im not a fan of his, but im a fan of the show, Nip/Tuck I mean.

OK, I just realised im talking in circles. What I meant was Nip/Tuck’s good but Teeth is so-so.

Monday isnt working so well for me, think I need a coffee. 4 more hours when work officially ends.

So tell me, does he or does he not remind you of MJ?

If you are an Ass: A very loyal and sweet person. Your loyalty can never be doubted. You are quite honest and sincere when it comes to your attitude towards working. You are a very simple person, indeed. Absolutely hassle free, humble and down-to-earth!! That explains the reason why your friends cling on to you! You have a good taste for clothes. If your wardrobe is not updated with what is trendy, you sure are depressed. Popular and easy-going. You have a little group of dignified friends, all of them being quality-personified.

If you are a Slug: Always up to some sort of a mischief! The mischievous gleam in your eyes is what makes you so cute and attractive to everyone. You are an extremely fun-to-be-with kind of person. No wonder people seek for your company and look forward to include you for all get-together’s. However, you are sensitive which is a drawback. People need to select their words while talking to you. If someone tries to fiddle around and play with words while dealing with you, it is enough to invite your wrath.
God bless the person then!

If you are a Cockroach: Quite contradictory to your name, you are a peace loving person. You best try to avoid a situation wherein you are required to fight. An outdoor person, you dislike sitting at one place for a long duration. You are a born leader, and have it in you how to tactfully derive work from people. You love being loved, and when you receive your share of limelight from someone, you are all theirs!!!! Well, well… hence some people could even take an advantage, flatter you to the maximum and get their work done. So be careful…..

If you are a Parasite: An extremely lovable, adorable person, sometimes shy, with a passion for quick wit. At times, you prefer quietness. You love exploring various things and going into depth of each thing. Under normal circumstances you’re cool but when given a reason to, you are like a volcano waiting to erupt. You’re a fashion bird. People look forward to you as an icon associated with fashion. Basically, you mingle along freely but don’t like talking much to strangers. People feel very easy in your company. You observe care in choosing your friends.

If you are a Skunk: You are near to perfect and nice at heart. The examples of your kindness are always circulated in groups of people. You too, love peace. You wouldn’t like to retaliate even to a person who is in the wrong. You are loved due to this. You do not wish to talk behind one’s back. People love the way you always treat them. You can give, give and give love, and the best part is that you do not expect it back in return. You are generous enough. Seeing things in a practical light is what the best trait of you guys remains.
 
If you are a Bullfrog: You symbolize a very happy-go-lucky approach in life. Whatever the surroundings may be, grim or cheerful, you remain unaffected. In fact, you spread cheer wherever you go. You are the leader of your group of friends and good at consoling people in their times of need. You dislike hypocrisy and tend to shirk away from hypocrites. They can never be in your good books, no matter what. You are very methodical and organized in your work. No amount of mess, hence, can ever encompass you. Beware; it is easy for you to fall in love….

If you are a Snake: You are mysterious. You are someone who can handle pressure with ease, and can handle any atmosphere without going berserk. You can be mean at times, and love to gossip with your selected group. Very prim and proper. You like all situations and things to be in the way you desire, which, sometimes is not possible. As a result, you may lose out in some relationships. But otherwise, you love to help people out from difficult and tight spots when they really need you.
 
If you are an Ape: Very impatient and hyper!!! You want things to be done as quickly as possible. At heart, you are quite simple and love if you are the center of attraction. That way, you people are unique.. You would like to keep yourself safe from all the angles. Shall your name be dragged or featured in any sort of a controversy, you then go all panicky. Therefore, you take your precautions from the very beginning. When you foresee anything wrong, your sixth sense is what saves you from falling in traps. Quite a money minded bunch you people are

 

a bad dream

i’m having a throbbing headache.  This is the 2nd day I’ve been experiencing this, Freaking irritating. To make matters worse, i woke abruptly from my nap coz i had a vivid dream and it was rather scary i must say. I dreamt that i was with my boyfriend’s friend’s girlfriend. Im not even close to her coz she’s well very different from me and in the dream, we were walking together to her car coz she asked me to and she sounded a little off, so i thought, heck, ok i shall. She drives a Suzuki Swift, a black model (it was the same as my sis?) and she started the engine and i was like, erm ok, she is behaving kinda weird so i decided to “accompany” her home. She apparently stayed in Pasir Ris (in the dream again). I asked her if she’s alright, and she was like im reaally tired. i got paranoid and asked, from your current relationship? She didnt answer. After this, she asked if she can borrow 10 bucks. Yea i know, thats kinda funny yea, mid-way through our drive and then u start asking for money?? Anyway, i was like ok sure, whatever, and reached into my wallet and stuff the cash into hers. The next thing I know, i saw her eyes closed for a split second and we were in the tunnel, and she was driving at high speed. She didnt stop and the car was going really fast to the side of the tunnel, i shouted. L***a, the brakes!! She didnt answer and then the car crashed. I saw my whole world flashed in front of me and i was thinking to myself, i dont waannna die!! the windscreen mirror smashed upon the impact of the crash, the glass fragments flew into into my arm and i saw blood ooozing out. I looked over at her, blood was trickling down her nostril but she was breathing..And i was breathing too. Phew! Im alive!! Thank God. And i woke up.

I dunno what’s scary, the fact that I had a dream like this or the fact that I could remember the details. But i have the tendency of having really weird dreams. The other one which i had and will always remember was the one with 3 men with trenchcoats and top hats. The first scene was like, I saw the outline of these 3 men and I was trying to figure out what they were doing. The image got bigger as they came closer and closer to me, I couldnt see their faces but I realised something was very wrong. I looked at them, scanned from top to bottom and then, i realised…. they had no feet. Great. Straight out of a horror movie or what. Anyway. I vaguely remembered waking up after this.

I’ve just popped a Panadol extra and i think my head feels somewhat better. Dinner’s almost ready and i need to think happy thoughts and have happy foods, like ben and jerry’s ice cream for example. Cant wait. Enough intensity for a sunday night already. Now Im starting to wonder if im gonna dream again later tonight. I hope i can have dreamless night though, coz when you are dreaming, your brain’s still working, which means you are’nt really resting. Sure dun wanna wake up tired the next day. Monday morning. Sucks!

 

 

http://www.barlenoir.com/

Im not recommending this particular outlet but i must confess they must be doing pretty well especially since the competition in the night entertainment industry is rather intense. I have only been there twice and there are always throngs of crowd. The crowd kinda reminds you of the velvet type, u know angmoh and spgs and all but with with more indian expat types as well. I want to jump into the racist mode here, but on second thought, better not yea? Hah. OK. My group arrived at this outlet round 10 and there was already crowd (then again the place is not exactly very huge) and there was a private party in the club. We sat at the alfresco area (we actually got a seat to our surprise since all the tables carried the Reserved sign) and than this server with the shaved head comes over and takes our orders.

“Excuse me M’mmam, what would you like to drink?”

“1 apricot brandy and sprite”

“ok M’mmamm how would you like the apricot brandy to be served? With soda? Tonic Water”

” i said i wanted sprite.”

“Ok, sorry M’mmmamm, we dont have sprite here, is 7-up ok?

” ok ok, watever, doesnt matter”

Then the server turns to another one of us and starts blabbering some shit. I think he is a nutcase. He speaks with a thick filipino accent (i hv no problem with that) and has a scar on the back of his head and 2 barb wire wrist tattoos (erm, ok scary). My take is, mental or not, if you are a server at a nightclub, you better know your drinks well, dont ask stupid questions and dont be rude. Anyway, i was quite put off by the whole experience. I asked for vodka with 7-up and some shit comes out from him and needless to say, the whole night was cut short.

By the way, did i mention that they pay cheesy 70s disco music at the alfresco area? Burn Baby Burn. Hahaha

But the club plays some familiar rnb tunes that Phuture doesnt play any more. Sobs.

 

 

 

 

Hooters. Singapore

I was at Hooters over the weekend and it was an enjoyable experience! Hahaha there is something for everyone to do, guys to ogle at the waitresses, girls can also check out how fat these waitresses are and laugh about it, you can also observe the dynamics of patrons who are there. Oh and I almost forgot, you can also wine and dine there. I didnt have the most fantastic experience when it comes to the food – i just have wedges and a cranberry juice (Lame!) haha but at least their drinks are still more affordable than just of the chi-chi, up and coming bars located down the road. A recent spin-off from the attica group charges $7.20 for a glass of juice and you know what the best part is, this is before taxes? So you probably pay $10 for a juice. Can we have a more transparent pricing structure pls? I think Zouk’s ok, if the drink is 12, is 12 yea?  I cant really recall paying a lot more than whats quoted.

OK back to hooters. My colleague with me was, hilarious as usual. Trying to chat up with Mickey (thats her name) the waitress who served us. And he calls her Mickey Mouse. Ok, maybe not chat up, but just being his usual friendly self. She was from China, Dalian province by the way (fact: the no. of PRCs in SIN is growing!) and my colleague tot she was from Japan (HELLOW) Major difference please. But she was quite sweet and my colleague ordered mango juice and he asked, is it fresh? She got confused for a while and later said it was from the bottle. Ok and then we asked eh how come you are in orange and there is just 1 girl in black? Later we found out that she is the supervisor. But she also has the most cellulite amongst all the girls. All the girls there, according to my colleague dont have nice butts. I agree, but hey its gonna be difficult to find someone with a nice face, nice pair of boobs and also a nice ass yea? If they have all 3, they might as well become a model ooh wait, then again these ppl are wayy too short. I just realise im not making a point any where on this post, so here’s a parting thought, can you imagine if these girls get their period? And they dont know it ? Or if they know it, how will the butts look under the shiny orange/black micro shorts. You can just be able to see the outline of their pads! And when the flow gets heavier…i wonder.. ok guess they all have to wear tampons! 

 

love

Being in love is a wonderful thing. You know the warm fuzzy feeling you get in your stomach, your heart “shrinks” in size when your loved one does something ultra sweet to you. On the flipside, when something upsetting happens, and when you are so in love with someone, the feelings become unbearably uncomfortable, your chest hurts, head spins and the next thing you know, hot tears start to flow. More often than not, the whole process can be avoided, I guess its how the situation could have been better handled/managed in the first place.

I appreciate being older in terms of age and maybe to a certain extent, somewhat wiser. Ok maybe not wiser, but knowing how to apply reason when appropriate. I do empathize with younger girls who somehow are not capable? to apply reason and thus behaving the way they are. Im not sure about you, but sometimes the situation is so apparent and then you start to wonder, what the hell is wrong with him/her? For eg, needy girl whines and complains incessantly, maybe about feeling insecure or wtever and then boy starts to get irritated and begins confiding, in other girls or worse still some woman whom the girl  cant stand. And then, the guy becomes “tired” of the complaints and later breaks up with the girl. Young people have choices, its not like when you are 18, you find someone and then you know this is the same person you would settle down for the rest of your life. So my take is, if it doesnt work out according to planned, relax, take it as a learning experience and you become a better person next time. Seriously, falling out of love somehow makes you a stronger person and even if it doesnt, at least you know what went wrong and hopefully you pick up some learning points there. So again, for young couples, communicate when things go wrong and dont become like a leech (all sticky and needy) around your boys, this absolutely turns them off and the next thing you know, they start seeking older women, bcoz they think they are more mature. Incidentally, there seems to be a growing trend of boys behaving like this. Its scary having a 18/19 year old coming up to you and saying that you are hot and you are at least 10 years older than them. And then they say, age doesnt matter. Sometimes it does, considering that, when you are in Primary 4 , they are still sucking on their moms’ tits. Hmmm.

 

Sunset Grill and Pub

This is the elusive place which makansutra did a segment on. The chicken wings have different levels of spiciness. We bought Level 3 and it was well, ok i suppose, but my love and his family seem to think otherwise. Hah. All of them broke out in sweat and had to drink tons of water. Hah! So well, the point is Level 3 was good enough but I cant imagine people buying Level 10 coz then, it would be waay too spicy and would totally kill the taste of the chicken. Next item we would love to try would the deep-friend mushrooms (heard great reviews on this) and the normal fried chicken.

Oh by the way, for those who attempt to go there, pls make sure you drive and just in case you get lost, there’s always the helpful OFFICER at the gate of..seletar camp. Hah, we asked for directions and he was soo kind to leave his post/table at the gate and walk to our car and direct us. His directions were spot-on, so yay! Glad to know we have intelligent-beings defending our country. Haha.

Ok so back to the area, it has this nice colonial feel coz all the houses are colonial-style (duh!) and we have foreigners living in that area so it almost feel like you are in foreign land, sooo, and you also have aviation companies and Fokker planes which is something close to my heart (wow,IATA rocks!)

Oh and Sunset Grill has this nice vibe re: its almost like you are going to a friends’ housewarming/birthday party. Very casual and laid-back, we LIKE! Before it turns into another dempsey road, we should be returning to Sunset Grill for Good Vibes and Good Food. 3 chopsticks!!

Enjoy the pics in the meantime

 

 

 

 

definitely, maybe

Just watched this show today. Its from the makers of Love Actually so as the formula goes, it will be heart-warming,  has that feel-good factor etc. Should be a must-watch if you are heading to the cinemas with the opposite sex (and hopefully someone you are already in a relationship with) As for me, I went to watch the show with my loved one and I had little/no expectations and I was pleasantly surprised by how much I actually enjoyed the show! Maybe its the convincing acting or just the easy chemistry between the actors that made the film worthwhile. ANYWAY, at times where there are really not many shows to catch, post-Oscar, pre-summer blockbusters period, do catch this show if you can.

Oooh, and there  is one other show i am contemplating to watch..”Teeth” Vagina dentata, hahah. Anyone caught this yet?

 

YSL

 

Love the ad. I think my hair kinda resembles what Kate Moss has now, Hahaha, I wish!! love the dirty/blond locks with the grey insides, niceee

Can someone decipher what’s on the window display? I know the 2nd Line: Yves Saint Laurent. The new range of bags quite nice eh? Hmm, gets me thinking if i shld get one too..the shape’s quite unique..HAIIII!! Anyway, I read somewhere that Jade Seah also has one, the black patent downtown bag…Hmm, but i think the black one’s not soo nice lah, looks like one of those cheap far east plaza ones…BUT, the new ones are quite fab (refer to white bag).

I was just thinking having the black downtown (not so nice) sorta reminds me of people buying  the black miu miu bag (which i personally feel isnt worth that kind of money) coz Charles and Keith actually has a replica. And it really looks almost like the miu miu bag, except for the sides, where there are not ribbons sewn on. Come to think of it, C&K seems to have all the carbon copies of the luxury bags now? Prada, Bally, Miu Miu, what’s next man.

 

 

HR personnel – pls take note! Adapted from: Today’s paper 8th april 2008

women who inspire (fashion, for me that is)

1. Nicole Richie

2. Kate Bosworth

3. Kirsten Dunst

4. Chloe Sevigny

5. Nicky Hilton

6. Kate Moss

7. Nicole’s stylist  - Rachel Zoe?

8. Mishca Barton

Adore their quirky fashion sense and kudos to Nicole picking Rachel as her Stylist. Best Career move ever. Now.. how can i be stick-thin like her so basically all clothes look nice? Damn!

another nice bag

I’m not sure about you, but there is something about Kirsten Dunst which i found rather alluring. She’s not pretty per se, but there is just some-thing about her. You know, kooky and all. And she really resembles a vampire! Remember Interview With the Vampire? She was a kid then but she looks quite creepy as a child vampire. Anyhow, she is Miu Miu’s latest spokesperson. Love the red lipstick and the gold lock with the bag! Maybe i should consider buying another Miu Miu, Woah. Hah.

 

Bags.

I’m never really into luxury bags, well, not quite until in recent years. Hah. I must say, the Chanel bag is quite a lust-after item (my colleague will be proud of my choice) and as you can see, the classic range is pretty nice. The red one jazzes up Nicole’s outfit and Mischa Barton also has one. Hers purple. Damn.
