The one with a little note

Looking fwd to Pigu's wedding in June!




27 years of my life I'm finally a bridesmaid! Lol..

The one where I love in style

did I tell u how much I love InStyle?


I like how it embraces it's identity like it should. A fashion mag. Unlike the likes of local CLEO where they dish out one-dimensional career advice n actually expects me to listen. Hmmph!

Luv the eyes



Luv Milla Jovovich.. Hot as always


Luv how I am inspired by this to wear my blazer




How Alba pedals in rompers n still is a mom!


Vintage montage of Palthrow.. Very Grace Kelly


***

The one with positive energy

Setting: @ Work.. Duh



What happened:
nice old tiny lady said I was sweet n gave me sweets





Sometimes I want to kill my job, if it were ever possible.
This morning I had to patiently counsel bratty new officers. FYI I give n take a lot as a sup cos perhaps I was once as immature n inconsiderate

But times like these say "it's not that bad"

+ The one with Blogshop Madness+

Blogshopping Madness, i caught it

This is how long my bookmark bar is, so far

+ The one that should have been blogged on New Year day+

+ The one that should have been blogged on New Year's day+

In my signature procastinating fashion, i did up this recap of year 2010.
it was an amazing and eye-opening year, full of emotions and miracles
so i thought, if i ever look back on my life, which i hope can be eternalised on the www
and since I have been away from this blog for ages
i would want to recap this year
in a hopefully short, concise, but not understating manner

***

2010 started off with us starting to live in our very own Jelebu Homie
we bought this resale design-&-build flat, which has a very contemporary layout that we both liked and converted into a minimalist-look apartment post- a-very-painful- renovation
Full-length windows, which to a nostalgic nut like me who like to look out and sink into deep thought, was v much important




a small kitchen we foresee very little use of
and planning to reno it again this year

3 big bedrooms, one converted into an entertainment room

and a Master room big enough to have my very own walk-in wardrobe


And despite what people may say, i love it
& I realise that there is no place i'd really rather be, when i can settle here with my loved ones
and have frens over to chill till as late as we want



And this year, i got hitched


yes, it wasnt easy with all the stress and the expectations and the disappointments.
but remembering that the point of it all
is being together with someone very much worth everything for
and the true friends who will selflessly see through the thankless tasks and your bridezilla-temper
thanks to all in the following pic (blabber: except for the 2nd one on the left who did nothing for me and later stabbed me in the back real hard by sending poisonous letters of me to our management, no thanks so good thing she shut her eyes for this picture cos her grotesque character cannot make her look good in anyway)
Now everyone is looking at the Poison rite?! haha
oei look at the bride n the rest of her pretty bridesmaid

it was also easy, because Dan and I look back and we really thought we had a nice wedding. cos to us, our solemnisation was way in 09
and that was all we wanted, a sweet simple and beautiful ceremony






The good thing about planning a wedding
and taking anything negative
is that you get to go on your honeymoon afterwards
and I got to soak and slack in my dream destinations...

Paris !

besides being the ultimate bimbo dream vacation
and visiting and buying from Louis Vuitton Flagship store
I really love Paris' architecture
kudos to their city planning and managing to retain the best of ancient european architecture

oh and one of our shoot shot there by Eng Hong made it into StyleWeddings magazine as 39East's advert!

& we went to London too, but did so much World cup watching with the English Fans!


This year, we welcomed our 2nd dog, Emi

ok i will readily admit she is around because we love Chiyo too much to bear the thought of her being alone at home while we work
and at evil times, especially when Emi behaves really terribly (such as not being toilet-trained after 6 long months), i call her Chiyo's $1100 expensive toy
... terrible owner
but she melts my heart at other times, and is slowly... very slowly learning

I cut my goondoo fringe in 2010 too


So in 2010, i found true friends, lost friends, and the loves of my life



Well, its not true that we should never look back.
because memories are there, for a reason
Happy Belated New Year, everyone!

The one with Dan's 31st

On 3 days leave.. A long long weekend for us in celebration of ..
Dan's 31st !!
Lol old
See how nice his wife dressed up for him?


machiam my birthday, but this spandex dress is so comfy! I hate jeans now haha
I walked past the shop in far east today n saw the coral version. Which is so nice! I was too paiseh to buy it cos I was wearing it, but I'm going back I swear!

Anyway I surprised the birthday boy with an iPad, it's keyboard dock, n an all-expenses paid accesories shopping trip!

Dan is of cos, very happy



He got an Ed hardy case, n this ribcage case he'd always wanted..



It brings a smile to my face, when someone I love is happy

Happy happy birthday!

Well hello~
Look what appeared behind the dresser "throne" (yep thats not a dresser chair, we bargained for this chanel like cushioned one like hell, so a throne it is)



Ok story is, most of you know Dan has one of these glass cabinets for so long. It was his dream since the days he browsed a certain handphone shop (and later, became good frens with the boss and get all sorts of crazy discounts on phones)
So i looked on in envy as he showcases his gadgets

And to stop me from trying to girly-up his manly gadget cabinet, he got me...

my own!

hee.
so far only the top 2 levels are done




Level one was for my very modest, display-able, pretty accessories
which means to say precious stones and elements or pass-down-generation jewellery, nah, not here
and of course, Louis Vuitton "Icons" book Dan got from Japan.

You can see I have very little accessories!
This I am proud of. I spring clean regularly plus i dont accesorise too much
i dont think anyone will wear any 5 year old earrings rite?



Level 2, im hoping will become the start of a perfume minature display



aha.. still thinking of the rest.. taking my time.

Im luving my home more n more!

+the one with a Shoe Cabinet+

Here it comes, and here it is!

Poor me tolerated an ntuc plastic shoe rack for a year since moving into our Jelebu Homie. So for my 17-again birthday (extended version), Dan got me this and it arrived today!

We got this simple shelving unit from Ikea, so that I can get a little of the country look by adding white wicker baskets n cut-out rice paper lined. Its pretty budget too, the whole ensemble, excluding delivery n installation of course, was only about $170? (sorry we both cant remember cos there were other things)


I like it! its not too fancy, but has room for a little indulgence. And, it doesnt irk me cos of my "thing" about airing my shoes. I cannot stand to wear shoes dug out from dark places.. ergh!

Ok one without the lomo..






Oh and while we are on this, here are the sweet heels i got from a JB shopping trip with Bunny
love the blue! even bought a bf blazer just to match this with any black or white dress I have
And its cheap! Who says u cant get nice stuff cheap?


Ok off to deco my own glass cabinet. The story up next!

+ the one with the 2nd second day of mc+

Funny, this is my second 2nd day of mc in a week. remember last week?
turns out some virus brought me down again after New Year Midnight and made me feverish for 3 whole days.
Slept and slept but the fever just wont go away
until I went to the super popular doctor at Toh Yi Drive and had to wait for more than 1 hour
thats when the fever said "whoa.. ok" and backed off only after i was given a million pills and another 2 days of mc

Didnt intend to take mc today too but i was supposed to be on pm leave anyway
waiting for the furniture to arrive and perhaps bringing the gals for grooming
and if i had went, all i would be wasting time on is sitting in a meeting coughing and waiting to update some items
no thanks

Gonna clear up some space for my display cabinet, thats where all my accessories will go
later. wee...
