Hello wello mello! ((:
Today is a ground breaking day for me cause I finally, finally plucked up the courage to get my eyebrows shaped!! Despite all the nagging from my sis that my eyebrows look like shit (it looks alright to me what...), I stayed away from all the plucking action even when everyone got their eyebrows done during JC prom because (1) I can imagine how bad it hurts and (2) I am really scared that weird/bad plucking makes me look permanently shocked. haha. Dunno how to hide weird eyebrows lor..
So anw, I found the best place (through recommendations from many people) at FEP! (: Its like this really small shop with English style furniture, and they play the nicest, most soothing music. I was quite nervous though and almost tripped on my way into the shop haha. What an embarrassment. They took one look at me and asked, "First time here?". I dont know whether it was the fearful me or my bushy eyebrows that gave that away lol!
They seated me on a salon style kinda arm chair next and a nice lady just did all the work! She scrapped and plucked and yanked and trimmed but she was sooo good that it barely hurt!!! Is that amazing or what!? I swear I am only going back to them and no other (: I thought the end result was quite nice but ck said I look
mildly shocked. lol!! I am actually very tempted to drag him there to get his brows plucked too hee hee hee! But then ck will lose his two signature caterpillar eyebrows and that will be so sad! I don't think I can get used to that!
Well, at least I've gotten over my phobia now! (:
I had a haircut at
Artica too cus my long hair is finally getting to me!
/EDIT Yay to shorter hair! I look abt the same but I like how Juno (his name is so cool) layered it. My last proper hair cut was like ages ago so my hair has been totally shapeless. Hence the endless ponytails... In addition, I had a super bad trim a couple of weeks ago and he did his best to salvage it for me haha! In fact, he was downright shocked at the state of my hair and I was super paiseh. He asked me if the hairstylist hated me or sth and I was thinking "Oh god" I just can't confess that the trimmer is my MOM! hahahahahaha!
AND, I dyed my hair as well. hee hee hee. May want highlight it some day but I'm real poor ):
Ck is not to be outdone and he got a haircut too! He's been wanting a change of hairstyle and finally took the brave step to acheiving it! I thought it looked quite nice except for the fringe cus the lady decided to cut some weird taiwanese act-cute fringe for him hahahahah! And so ck went home to salvage it and TADAH! He is now AH WANG!!!!! :D lol!!!
Here's a picture of his side view:
Cool bo? :D But imagine it with ah wang fringe hahahaha! Don't worry you're still cute my cat! :D
Anw, he showed me this webpage with all the coolest mohawk style variations and I am amazed:
A bi-hawk hahaha!! Funny right! Two small mohawks!
Reverse mohawk. Ck, you shld try this! You'll be the coolest boy in town! :D
Shark Fin! I think this actually looks quite cool!
I knowwwww, "
What the hell" right!!! LOL! This IS a type of mohawk! Its called Lazy Hawk: a typical Mohawk, except left unstyled, resting on the wearer's head.
Wow
And this is a faux hawk. Nice right! I nvr knew it had a name (:

Hello peopleeeee!! (: Okay I've actually meant to blog for ages but I always get distracted by one thing or another! I've got like a few entries written on a few separate days but never completed. oops! :D
Nonetheless, I'm really enjoying my freedom but as always, I just KNOW I will look back in the future and wished I have done sth more productive with my time now. You know how when you're really busy, you'll start dreaming of having free time to do like this and that? I had like this long list of things to do lor, like to pack my room and clean and weird stuffs like that. But now that I'm so super free, I never ever get round to doing the things cus there's so many better things to do hahaha! You know, like watching all the past seasons of f.r.i.e.n.d.s. and laughing at the funny parts all over again :)
Okay, so backtracking to two weeks ago.......
...its byebye, Burberry!! (: Time really flies lor, without realising it, I have spent like half a year there! I'm doubtful how I actually survived the work and study! But I think 31st May will show that I didn't exactly survive too well (results coming out haha) Nonetheless, I'm really grateful for the opportunity to have worked for one of the top luxury retail industries in the world. I had fantastic colleagues, and the most fantastic boss from whom I learnt a lot (: Now I just hope she gives me a glowing testimonial hahaha.
Farewell lunch for me at some thai restaurant at Orchard Central. And that's all the people in my non apparel "department"! A mighty two people, excluding the lowly intern (me) haha! Yummies.
Found this on my desk on my last day, from Angeline! (: haha she say I'm her only xiao mei mei friend (-.- I'm like gg on 21 omg) and she had a hard time thinking of what to buy and finally settled on a handmade laptop case which she thought was "cute enough". lol!
That little creature is called "Mr Owlie". hahah so cute right! I felt like this great warm gush of affection for her cus she's been such a great friend and colleague (: Even if she gave me a little beansprout tht day I wld have been happy lor. She recently called me to say that all the staff just got some Burberry notebook and she secretly took for me also. Tell me how to not <3 her?? :D
And a token of appreciation from the company! I was totally not expecting it so it was a very pleasant surprise when Eileen from HR handed me a large burberry paper bag all tied up with a satin ribbon. I felt super rich that day, like I really bought sth huge from Burberry hahaha.
My dad says to pose with my "grad" gift. Moomoo obviously thinks its food, he kept on pestering me!
Yay to my new bag! Although it isnt all that eye-catching, its very roomy enough and sturdy. People who know me know that I always have alot of things to bring along w me somehow... so this is one bag that can contain all my essentials (:
And in case you're interested, here's how the inside looks like.
Met ck for dinner that night in celebration, and we tried this supposedly famous katsudon at Ion (: Did I mention that I forgot to put in my camera battery back in my camera when I brought it to office on my last day of work? ): So I didnt really take pics with my other colleagues cus it seemed a little weird to ask them to pose for my blackberry. I can be such a retard sigh...
Henceforth, the following katsu pictures are taken with my lousy bb camera:
Ck trying to be funny haha. Bunny teeth kinda suits him hor? :D
His katsudon set with freeflow pickles and miso soup, althought both taste abit weird. That egg like thing there is their potato and cheese croquette! Quite yummy! (:
And my chicken cutlet don with egg (: It doesnt look too unappetising lol but the cutlet was juicy and tender! I feel that their rice isn't tasty enough though so next time, I think I'll go for their katsu sandwiches to enjoy more katsu goodness. They look really really good! (:
Okay, I don't know why half of my entry abt wy (now back in singapore yay!) and our newton dinner is goneeee ): Anw, I am very happy that my bestie is back! <3 hurry come back, rest of you SEP people!! (:
Blogger is like all laggy now so til next time people! I am super looking forward to going TW/HK for mega shopping and eating trip and getting really excited abt my summer exchange to Korea too! :D Pls don't start war-ring now N and S Korea ): I still want to visit youuuu ):

I realised that I didn't have a celebratory post to mark the end of the examinations so...
YAY! (: Exams are over!!!
*Fireworks*
haha abit late I know. I had my last paper on the 5th but didn't have time to let the happy news sink in cus the very next day, I was hauled off to the office again ): lol! Super sian! Luckily, the few of us still managed to celebrate our freedom at MIND cafe + tuck in to a hearty dim sum supper on Tuesday :D
dear people in Singapore haha (:
What's Mind Cafe without Pictionary? lol! Daniel unwisely declared that the "Airheads" (becks and mel) stand no chance against the "Geniuses" and......WE LOST!!! hahaha! Shit. We played Taboo as well and the most impt lesson I've learnt that day is not to partner Mel cus she is simply too fierce and will promptly scare any answer out of your head hahaha. Becks will know...
Dan also intro-ed us to this game which was super gan chiong! Play until my hands were all sweaty!
And one group pic (:
Supper time next! Dan drove us all to Swee Choon but it was CLOSED!! Omg you have no idea how sad I was cus I've been hearing the rest rave about it and of all days, it had to be closed on that night!! (Notice I have no more curfew *smug*) So off we wet to Geylang's 126 instead! (:
I thought the food was quite decent other than the shrivelled up xlb! I love the fried yam balls (when I usually hate yam), the fried prawn roll thingy and the cheong fun! (: The Dong Bo Rou was very nice too! Even though I'm not usually into the fatty sort of meat, I ate two slices of this cus it reallly kinda melts in your mouth! Daniel was q in love w it and devoured two plates along with ck haha..
I love the drinks that they have too! As you can see, its served in that kind of da-bao container, so cute right! I ordered the honey lemon with bits of jelly and it was shiokkkk! The setting was also q comfy and like Dan said, it felt like we were in HK lol!

Yesterday, ck and I went on a movie marathon for Iron Man 2 and Ip Man 2! (: I was superrrr looking forward to both movies and have been dying to watch since they were released. I thought Iron Man was just alright but IP MAN 2 was goooood!! I have a secret liking for chinese kungfu shows ((: When we were younger, my sis and I used to watch Jackie Chan's super old cantonese movies over and over again until we know the lines of all the villians haha.
Lunch at Astons before the movie! I had to devour my prime ribeye in under fifteen minutes cus otherwise, we will be late for our movie /:
My hair is getting long for the first time in my life! Abit feel like cutting it though..
And my cat haha! That's his Garfield-y smile! :D I wonder if he'll allow me to paint him orange one day and draw some stripes on him hahaha! Maybe Halloween ah!
Had time to grab a SB fix in between the two movies! (: ck ordered the new Espresso White Chip frap to try! It was alright but in all honesty, nth beats a cup of Java Chip.
Some usual camwhoring shots and ck acting cute in some old school pose haha
After catching Ip Man 2, it was dinner at Thai Express! (: I super love their phat thai can!!! Its the most delicious thing in the worlddddddd!!
Look at this plate of heavenly goodness! Def the place to run to when I crave spicy food. Omg I'm like drooling at the sight of this :D
Okay! I am off to get my all-versatile Mummy to help shave some length off my fringe cus I have a feeling that I'm dropping hair ahhh! Bye all!! (:
