Credits to photos can be found on my tumblr.

SO FINALLY, my tumblr is no longer secret. I have had it since 2008, but it was just used as a kinda ‘storage’ space for all my random images & whatnot from the web. But now that I’ve finally gotten the hang of how to actually use it & update it regularly (and I have been!), it shall now no longer be a secret stash of pretty things. COME VISIT IF YOU SO DESIRE :) Its like an open invite into a sekret part of my mind.. or something.

ANOTHER THING: I think I’m definitely moving over to tumblr maybe next year or something. COS THEY HAVE THE MOST AWSM LAYOUTS. Damn wordpress and its limited selection.

Guest blogger!

I HAVE MY VERY FIRST GUEST BLOGGER!

Uh, its no one famous so don’t get excited. But I’m really looking forward to this. Its gna be a riot.

The entry shall appear sometime tonight (or hopefully within the next 24 hours, at least.)

This photo commemorates what this guest blogger & I share and celebrate in life. This is the kind of sight that we will see/walk past and trigger the following standard reaction: stop in our tracks, look at each other, nod, and both say,

“Yes.”

Excuse me while I replay the song on loop and die now.

Where have you been all my life?

A day of rest :)

I have more photos & updates of this christmas season, but today is my rest day, so I finally get to post the images I’ve been meaning to share that bring a smile to my face.

2010, let’s do this.

The prettiest painting ever.

I can’t decide if this is creepy or cute.

Reminds me of cold weather, packing, traveling <3 Sigh.

Summers of 69.

Every girl’s girlcrush.

My new hot stuffs of 2009. Dudes in suits that SING.

As the year ends, make do and mend.

Life as a collection of experiences.

God loves them, and I try to too.

Can I have this dance?

And if I had one more chance at prom…

ZOMG <3

Today, I…

x dyed my hair

x organised notes for Monday (aka the beginning of the end)

x did some yoga on Wii Fit for the first time in 522 days, so my WII INSTRUCTOR informed me. Easy on the sarcasm there, virtual dude.

x knit myself a headband :)

I am so addicted to DIY-ing things now that I know how to knit! Haha I hope we have lunch at Plaza Sing tmr, then I can get more yarn from Spotlight! HURRAH!

Where can I get this nail polish colour?

PLEASE LET ME KNOW KTHXBYE.

In other news, SCHOOLS! OUT! FOR-EVER! Okay, not really. But at least for this semester, for this YEAR! THE YEAR OF 2009. Which is rapidly ending. And I am so looking forward to it.. not to its ending, but just the things that are going to unfold in the next few months :)

But before that, I need to get through the next 2 weeks of exam prep and final week of exams.

The joy of the Lord is your strength.

After the recent episode of Gossip girl, I have given up on it totally as a credible show. (-MAJORSPOILERAHEAD-) Lizzy Mcguire initiating a THREESOME with DAN AND VANESSA?? Yea ok, we get it, that was probably the ace of spades to salvage the dying storyline and characters-which-have-reached-the-limit-of-development. ZOMG. Not only did it leave me horrified and traumatized for life (IT IS LIZZY MCGUIRE CAN I JUST REPEAT THIS), but I’m just like, ugh. Grossed. Out.

x

Ok back to the main point of this post – therefore GG will now serve as no longer a drama series but a runaway show for me :)

With that, I am in love with all the one-shoulder dresses that Blake Lively/Serena has been sporting, especially this season! There are MORE that I remember her wearing, but these are the only images that I could find.

J’ADORE.

One word.

DOG.

I’M GOING CRAZY RIGHT NOW IT. IS. SO. FRIGGIN. CUTE.

Gotta love all things OWL.

The highlight of my weekend has just passed, lunch with Gid & Jon at XLB and indulgent desserts at Swensens after. Yeah, now get back to work.

Tuesday, you are so near yet so far away.

I apologize for my incessant whining and complaining about work, I know that everyone probably has heaps more and some are even in the midst of exams now (JIAYOU! I’m praying for you!) – so I should just suck it up and be grateful that I’m not dead.

Hanhan jie’s wedding: Treats

(Warning: long picture post ahead!)

First up, let’s just congrat my lovely cousin on tying the knot!

Things to note about this photo:

x Hanhan jie’s wedding gear is AMAZING. It is exquisite.

x Handsome couple, yes?

x TO THE LEFT OF THIS PHOTO: YES THAT IS ROZZ. (And if you care, that guy is a chinese DJ from 93.3fm apparently he’s pretty famous too)

BUT YES, THAT IS ROZZ.

She hosted my cousins wedding!!!!!! GAAAH *DIES*. She wasn’t hired or anything, oh ok context – my cousin is actually a DJ so they’re friends. BOOYA.

This gushing might come across pretty stupid esp to my family (=brothersandfather) because in the car on the way to the dinner, the conversation went down like this.

Me: ZOMG Hanhan jie said Rozz is hosting her wedding!! SO EXCITE.

Brothers & father: Who is Rozz?

Me: WHAT!! THE DJ WITH THE STAR TATTOO SHES RLY COOL

Brothers & father: Who is that..

Gid: Oh is she the one in the show with Xiaxue.

Me: -.- Yes.

MORE PHOTOS EVIDENCE OF ROZZ and random 93.3fm guy and at the end, I think that was the DJ/radio station people table! Actually I just wanted to get a photo of her star tats. Hahaha mission accomplished! K now on the wedding proper. Sry about that.

x

Hanhan jie’s wedding dinner = THE BEST I’VE ATTENDED.

Good menu? check. Good location? check. Good crowd? (WE SPOTTED JACK NEO!! And generic medicorp lady who always acts as people’s mothers on ch 8!! Lets not forget Rozz of course.) CHECK. Good music items? TOTALLY CHECK (video for proof later). And the list goes on..

And for the first time in forever, my entire family was there to grace the occasion – all the Yap children present!

Brothers competing in Announcer voices. HAHA.

Events of the night included:

playing with our far-far-far removed (I am unsure) little cousin Hope, and making Matthew cry because I called him KEVIN cos it was printed on his shirt, as well as the rest of the extended family gushing over SARAH the newborn – (EVIDENCE BELOW)

Btw this photo is priceless. Play spot the differences! Its pretty difficult I warn you.

Another huge part of the night shall be represented in the following photo, which might come across as rather dodgy.

But I would have to say that it characterized the rest of the events of the night.

Note the redness in the faces that shall be known as the Yap family’s Curse of Obvious Intoxication (even though we didn’t even drink that much – ok, at least Caleb and I didn’t. I shall not speak for the other two).

AND THIS IS EVIDENCE OF DAKORKOR TRYING TO BRIBE GIDEON INTO DODGY ACTIVITY. I will leave out details, but essentially Gid succumbed to Dakorkor’s chants and persuasion, which resulted in him regretting right about half an hour later. I WARNED YOU. Free flow of red wine at weddings = bad idea.

x

Toastings and YAMSENGS!

And the beauty that is Hanhan jie’s second gown change for the dinner <3

x

This ex-DJ called Kewei sang a few items for the wedding (along with Jacky Cheung sound-alike). SHE IS REALLY GOOD. (AND WAS ALSO WEARING RET.) She has a youtube channel here. You can check it out! :)

x

Once again, WHERE IS CHERYL?

And last but not least, the Yap family in full :)

x

Alrighty lengthy post indeed, ironically I just came back from ANOTHER wedding (not dinner though, just reception!). And I need my beauty sleep. Goodnight and have a good weekend!

xoxo

I shall think about the perfection of this photo for the rest of today and nothing, nothing, shall make me sad (again).

At least until the end of today.
