We got married!

How do models survive?

So yesterday began the epic s and lydia’s photoshoot. It was classic to say the least.

Me in baju kurung dotted with beads and shiny crystals complete with prolly 5 layers of make up on my face trudging down what felt like the whole of Singapore.

Apart from the make up artist and two photographers. We had 2 more helpers and another 2 more photographers who tagged along. God bless for good friends. In fact, god bless them.

I was snappy and looked fat in most of the outfits. I hope the photographer will Photoshop me to death.

We braved the weather, mozzies and hunger pangs all for the sake of good photographs. I hope.

Today adam and lillian were kind enough to take more shots of us and Shelly!

I had fun today actually, we went on the swings, jumped on the trampoline, trespassed into an abandoned building…..we got promptly chased away. Heh.

And today was a wrap. No more papparazi till the big day! I am happy

I have so many things to, I don’t know where to start.

Ok. Talk soon lovelies.

Snowball Poem

I made myself a snowball
Just as perfect as could be.
I thought I’d keep it as a pet
And let it sleep with me
I gave it some pajamas
And a pillow for its head.
Then, last night it ran away,
But first . . . .it wet the bed!

Wet Tuesday

Typed a whole chunk of text but the wordpress app on my iPhone was being a pain.

Was drowned with tennis fever the past 2 weeks. My dear S decided to be a smarty pants and cancelled the sports channel 2 days before the semi finals. According to him it’s because the bpl and epl is no longer with Starhub. This is despite the fact that I urged him to get the channel in the first place cause of tennis. don’t you just love him.

Been camping at col’s to watch tennis. Found my favourite spot: his balcony. Telly on my left, pool on my right and cute guy just opp his place.

Schiavone rocked the court and I wish I get to see more of her on court. She is tremendously good. I wanna play just like her.

Seems like gym seshs and tennis not doing me any good. This morning I had to throw out a pair of very good pants cause I cldnt squeeze my glutes in it.

Just ended tennis although it wasn’t exactly fulfilling. I wanted to smash some balls on court but some other guy had grander plans. He kept on hitting balls way past the baseline for some strange reason. So I got pretty annoyed.

I spent a good chunk of my lunch time crying for no apparent reason.

Last weekend my cousin got married and it was a full two days of eating and merry making.

Look at this cute little fella I spotted!

Silver jubilee

Had a chance to attend a silver wedding. Wonder whether the new gen will ever get that far.

Getting married later will prolly eliminate that chance by like half? Or even more (just heard someone got married at 37. And tts the girl mind you. )

Apart from the usual wedding dinner, I got a chance to sit in for the church service also. That was something to remember that one.

Ok, back to roland garros. Hewitt’s playing nadal.

No prizes for guessing who’s going to walk out of court smiling.

O-em-gee

I am beyond happy because I have found furniture heaven. ))

Now i just have to find the right haven so I can fill it up with all these pretty furniture.

God bless English homes. x

I…

1. no longer remember how you smell like. that musky smell of yours with undertones of wood and pockets of fresh air.
2. got myself a bed of fresh curls. Warmed my butt for 5 hours and finished reading Purple Hibiscus. Am truly awed by the book.
3. can’t remember the last time i did something nice for you without whining.
4. think i am not fit to live with anyone because i am filled with selfishness and prefer to be in bed alone sometimes.
5. shouldn’t be mistaken as a loner. i love to socialise but like to be with my quiet self too.
6. am having the mother of all cramps.
7. should quickly get warming pads before i start to stab my tummy.
8. forgot how to write.
9. love point forms.
10. am going to start on a new book. Toto Chan, here i come.

Adjustments

It’s been yonks since i last updated this almost dying blog.

all’s been good. no worries. im not dead yet.

been busy with:

1) family (we’re gonna have one more addition to the family! and no. no one is pregnant. thank you v much.)

2) friends – managed to meet up with Adam before he flew off to Canada. Met with Col to have drinks. J for drinks by the pool. (bunnies most of the time really. we have spent almost every waking minute together. it’s scary. either all of us or just one. if our bosses were to see our work inbox, they will be appalled by the strings of email threads we have with one another. ha ha ha. it’s crazy.

3) finally got down to packing. i packed 4 shelves of books. aren’t you proud? i dragged them all the way to the other end of the island. i still have about 4 more before i attack my shelves of clothes.

4) Gym + tennis. Not bad. i have maintained. twice gym sessions weekly plus one tennis session. i think my instructor sees no results cause he bought me weights to do at home. ha ha ha ha.

5) Looking through holiday destinations. I wanna go to NYC. i never thought i’d say that. but yes. i wanna go to NYC, find a corner off i dont know what street, sip coffee and share a cupcake with someone. how odd.

6) Change of job. Better offer. better package. Better Title. Can’t say the same about the workspace or the people. yet. meh. Adjustments suck. i miss my clients!!!

on another note, i am blessed that the other 2 bunnies are in the same building with me, in the same Group of media agencies. THANK HEAVENS.

So we go to the roof to sit by the pool and take a breather. I love such sessh. Only thing that keeps me going these days.

i am also happy that one has been promoted to a media director and one to a general manager. ) am very very proud of them.

7) Tomorrow will mark day 8th day at the new place. I hope it will be better. today was ok. although handovers were really dreadful. it’s like i can’t wait to get down to work. but now have to read through all the thick decks of client’s briefs+competitors+brand+products+creative+past advertising plans. eeck. my mind is a boggle. -.0

8) i have also been glued to the telly finishing up 3 seasons of 24. ha ha ha ha. i am finally done. now moving on to Californication. ) My dad sure knows how to keep my at home. ha ha.

9) needs to do something about her hair fast. it is starting to annoy her quite a bit. why am i suddenly talking in third person? hmmm…

10) time for bed. i am knackered from the past 2 weeks. and am praying tomorrow will be a much much much better day.

Wish me luck and i do hope all of you lovelies are doing mighty fine.

If i can quote Adam Sydney, “If you are feeling at your lowest…remember! you were once the quickest sperm!”

Back in sunny sg!

Can’t sleep because:
1) abit woozy from the flight back earlier
2) worried what my trainer is going to say after he sees how fat I’ve become after eating all the stuff in bali
3) I am so not looking forward to work tmr becase I know for sure my inbox is bursting with so much life the bowels of my computer is choked.

Selamat tinggal!

I am beyond hungry waiting for the plane to arrive. Eeck.

Wonder whether there’s good nasi goreng in Bali. Like the one I had in Phuket. That was by far the BEST nasi goreng ever known to man.

Here’s to good nasi goreng!!
