opps, I did it again…

last year I did a Rihanna
and this year I did a Xandra Ooi
still can’t get use to the bangs and the worse is I don’t quite like the color (a bit too bright and too loud for me) although my dear stylist thinks it suits my skin tone :( my sis said I look like a dumb blonde…. *crying out loud*

plan A in execution!!!

I had just updated my ‘my travelogue…. (part III)’ post and if you could still remember that I talked about this ‘Plan A’.

alrite, plan A didn’t go as smooth as we planned. started with some pulled out then the thought of just drop the whole idea. but was revived back by some desperado (yeah, I have to admit the desperado here is me :P) then clashed of interest as planning comes along. what the heck….

last weekend, Kent found some kinda treasure. oh well, not really a treasure that we were hoping for… but who doesn’t fall for a treasure that is presented right on your face???

yeah, I meant dirt cheap airfare… so despite of all the obstacles that disappointed us, we had decided to just do it again. this is the year … the year of 2011… hitting my big three-o soon… here I come….

date: 30th Apr to 21st May
venue: Europe (highlight will be Santorini!!!)
participants: me, Kent, Ryan & Karen

Kent, work your magic on the chindian ok… then it won’t be down to just you and me anymore, it shall be fun if they can really join us. as for myself, I am really on ecstasy that I can finally do what I’ve been hoping for… it’s just 3 months for me to countdown to… hooray!!!

carpe diem

it has almost become a habit to play this beautiful song right at the moment my eyes are wide open every blissful sunday.

lazing on the bed with the quilt comfortably cuddling my body, I just couldn't resist having this beautiful song on a continuous loop.

letting this beautiful rhythm mesmerizing my mind is like the best potion to wash away all the stress accumulated.

every time singing along its’ beautiful lyrics reminds me of a phrase, a simple yet powerful phrase.

carpe diem... life is short, seize the day!

well... live high, live mighty, live righteously, takin' it easy... and enjoy this beautiful song...

goodbye 2010… hello 2011!!!

it’s a wrap…. for 2010. definitely wasn’t one of the best year for me. to summarise, it had been a year of worked hard and played least. sucks big time! last year this time, I was in Singapore accompanied by colleagues and friends that made me feel good being away from home on such a significant day. but this year, I am so glad and blessed to be home with family and friends. this is undeniably a better way to kickstart another new year compare to last year. so here I am now to bid farewell to 2010 and hope for a better 2011.

nothing better than having new year eve dinner with the buddies. besides the slight hiccup on the reservation, it all went on smooth… as smooth as Dr Loosen down the throat (no siap siap hahaha…). with a buffet spread of meats, half dozen of wines, simple desserts, DJ spinning the music and counting down to a new year, I would say it was a crazily great nite. it was so crazy that we did the YMCA dance… I know, it’s so O-M-G rite… well, it must be the side effect of the non-stop wine sipping. and the side effect was so strong that it got my head and my heart pounding at a syncing beat while on the way home. thanks mr Chong-Ling for all the champagne and wines... oppss, I mean Mr Chong and Mr Ling :P

noon was spent with Shearwell and DinDin. first time celebrating new year with the ladies. it was fun preparing lunch with the two experts, feels like being the spoil brat giving not a helping hand but a big trouble hahaha… sorry for the burnt garlic, spilled cheese and not well blended mushroom :P I sure knew I will create a mess so the best way to say sorry is to bring a tub of BR rum and raisins hahaha… hope we can celebrate every new year together in the years to come.

as most of the gang had our own plan for the new year eve, we all decided to celebrate the new year tonite. Kelvino did a great job in getting an exceptional venue to celebrate. he got us a recording studio… alrite, it was very kind of Mark for borrowing us his workplace to turn into our playground. the guys were jamming some ‘real’ music and some of us were singing our heart out. since it is a sound proof recording studio, we didn’t have to worry if we caused any disturbance to the neighbouring bungalows with our wicked music. with Nic’s signature homemade pizzas and finger foods, my contribution of brownies, Mark’s generosity in free flow liquor and JE’s finger-licking-good chicken wings, the ‘recording’ went on and on with so many hilarious music produced.

all in all, it is no doubt the best new year celebration I ever had… from the YMCA dance to the kitchen booboo to the music production. and I’m so happy to say that it will never be this much of fun if it wasn’t with you all celebrating the great new year with me. hope 2011 will bring so much more great happenings for all of us… cheers and happy new year!!!
