Photobucket

Photobucket

By right, there shd only be 1 winner. Somehow, they decided to change the rules. 2 winners. Now, we have to split the prize money… #@*%&$^

i should drink more water~ You should as well!

feeling dehyrated from the outdoor shoot today.

Eco Chic Fashion

An event for Miss Earth. It’s my 2nd and last event with the girls.
Photobucket

I have withdrew from the pageant due to commitment reasons.
*Gonna miss Valeria and Michelle very much.*

We were wearing outfits by the final year students of Raffles Design..
Outfits are great, but makeup and hair, hmmm…..
Photobucket

Felt really irritated by almost everything. Cheographer was late, no briefing, makeup and hair were atrocious, i did not get to rehearse the stage, some of the girls messed up their walk, etc, etc, etc.

Me with the designer of my outfit, Erin. She’s wearing her own creations too! Would love to work with her in future.. (:
Photobucket

It took her only 2 days to complete the outfit. The dress was patched with 3 pieces of denim and the floral vest was made from scratch with leftover cloth. She bought the “fish bag” from a pet shop – meant for cats. haha…
Photobucket

Valerie with her designer. The jacket is an award-winning piece! love it.
Photobucket

She looks great in it! ;)
Photobucket

—————————————————————

we had to make a mask from recycled materials, as one of the assignments. But I skipped the showcase event.

A simple one… Lined it with pearls and beads from my old accessories..
Photobucket

plastered the main base with small pieces of unwanted cloth.. attached a gold ribbon from an old present, stuck some feathers too…
Photobucket

hopefully I will get to use it for some parties.. (:
Photobucket

under the stars

started at 8pm. it was meant for Aperitifs.

But it was just way too fun that we forgot about dinner. lol…

my first time out on the helipad of New Asia Bar. It’s SO coooool~
Singapore’s party scene isn’t that bad afterall.. haha.

I would definitely love to be there on F1 night! :D
or should I head to Shanghai instead?

Photobucket

Photobucket

but my poor throat… am i losing my voice?…

I’m still undecided with my fringe.
Photobucket

kelvin threatens to break up if i cut bangs. wth. Lol..

Nah, he will not break up with me but there’s gonna be endless of naggy sessions if I’m really getting my bangs.

Or maybe I should keep my fringe and get a wave perm?

——————————————————————–

Had lunch with my Supermodel!
Photobucket

my tempura Soba. =)
Photobucket

D’s set lunch… how splendid!
Photobucket

Spent the whole day with Emi. I guess we literally combed the whole of Far East + Taka + Wisma.

Im glad i managed to return home empty handed. Was so tempted by many! Especially the shoes.. I can hear them calling out to me…

NOOOOO~

i need to scrimp and save now. 1 more month to Bonjour Paris!! :D

CommunicAsia 09

*whistles*
Photobucket

it was a tiring 4 days.. constantly reminding myself to tuck in my tummy. repeating what Omnia ll is about and comparing it to the 1st generation and Iphone.
Photobucket

And yes, that’s Xuesha with me! She was my partner for the whole 4 days. haha..
Photobucket

with Stella.. hot mommy!
Photobucket

with the Korean trainers.
Photobucket

with my Korean trainer, Ga Hee..
Photobucket

other trainers.. All of them were so nice to us and made work more enjoyable!
Photobucket

I look so tired by the 3rd day.. lol…
Photobucket

As you can see our outfits are very fitting. Initially, it was really loose and long (at least 2 sizes bigger). But somehow, after the alternation, it shrank badly.

To make things worse, the floor of the middle exhibition area was arylic floor which is highly reflective! we all had to keep a look out for one another.

On the last day, we caught a pervert who took upskirts of us. F*king pervertic asshole. Handed him to the police.

That aside, it was still a fun loving 4days show with the girls. Made many new friends. Spoke to some interesting visitors.. ;)

And before anyone ask me the question again, the Omnia ll is coming out in end-July. Price unavailable.

It has a bigger screen, 3.7″ with AMOLED display screen. Which means you can still see your screen clearly under strong sunlight! Sort of anti-glare.

It runs on much faster processing speed and has a fast touch reponse screen. Navigation is easier and better. Keypad is modified and more sensitive. Running on 256RAM, comes in 8gb and 16gb (i think). Buildable to 32gb on external MicroSD card. Stylus is external, comes in the box.

Operates on Windows Mobile 6.1. Upgrading to version 6.5 in mid-Sept. Enables better multi-tasking and enhanced 3D multimedia experience. New technology of zooming into photos using only 1 finger touch. Media cube box for browsing media files.

Alright, that’s about it.! (:

Photobucket

Photobucket

i was worried initially as all the girls had big hair. this was the concept we had in mind:
Photobucket

Photobucket

———————————————————————–

I took away my long fringe.. couldnt stand it.
But I’m not very comfortable with my current fringe….
I look weird………… my cheeks are SO chubbbbyyy….
and there’s so many girls out there with this hairstyle. i’ve lost my individuality. plus i’m beginning to resemble some of the other gals…
Photobucket

but it looks alright when i tie up my hair…?
Photobucket

my pretend-BANGS… shd i cut bangs? i’m so tempted!
Photobucket

I’m really grateful to be assigned to Kenaris Hair Salon for this hair show. Love the people there! Me and Vincent are the luckiest models among all. Because Kenaris really care for us and our hair.

Both Aris and Ken dote on me alot. Always making sure i’m well-fed whenever i’m at the salon. It’s the 5th time i’m back at the salon today! The other staff are also very friendly and jokes around with us.

What’s more, they are offering us free hair services for the next 6 months!! how cool is that!! :D

Hello CommunicAsia 09!

Photobucket

Taken with Omnia Lite and uploaded through Facebook Mobile! :D

I’m taking care of Omina II. yeah, the 2nd generation is launching soon!

I’m becoming an Omina II expert~

Did an event last night at Clifford Pier.

I’m totally amazed by the place – One on the Bund.

the same concept as the Shanghai Bund and they do serve shanghainese food!

It’s for Nokia. Some private launch party for their dealers.

Me, Shu Min, Sara and Iko represented 4 different categories of phones – Essential, Music, Email, Convergence.
Photobucket

Oh well, I was assigned to essentials and they dressed me as a student. lol.
Here’s me in my student ‘makeup’ and hair:
Photobucket

it’s kinda hard to believe. I always had that mature look. somehow, the braces did magic and turned me young. someone thought i was 18!!! LOL.

with Shuko. our cheographer cum stylist. (:
Photobucket

there was lots of waiting time. we were freezing at backstage. really bored and we started cam-whoring with the nokia phones! haha…

Photobucket

Iko uploaded them immediately onto Facebook with the 3G network. yeah, they are having the FB application in the new nokia phones!!
Photobucket

we behaved like starving models. they fed us dinner at 5+pm and we digged in together with the dealers again at 9pm. And after the show, me and shu min stayed back for drinks and continued to whack the prawns! so yummy. the both of us are suckers for prawns… haha..
Photobucket

the peeps from event company. love working with them! hope they feel the same way too! haha…
Photobucket

shu min and her macho man! we were joking why sara shd start dating him! it would be the perfect height for her!
Photobucket

me and my macho!. hahhaha..
Photobucket

they had leftover chocolates and gave a few boxes to us! so sweet. ;)

Russia Day

it’s been a long long time since i had Kuriya. my last visit was almost 4 months ago.

went for a light dinner yesterday. the place is totally burstling. they renovated the part of the restaurant to serve their specialty soba noodles. Saw the menu, it’s really affordable! You must check it out! ;)

seasonal jellyfish with broccoli and peanut sauce
Photobucket
I love jellyfish! the crunchy texture. yum yum.

our usual must-have grilled tofu!
Photobucket

1st sashimi platter.
Photobucket

abalone sashimi.! it was on offer price. haha.. can’t resist.
Photobucket
the tender texture is awesome! so much better than cooked abalone. less tough but still chewy!

2nd sashimi platter.
Photobucket

check out the clam in the cucumber ‘mould’! cool.
Photobucket

we had a warm soup soba and wrapped up with my favourite green tea mochi.
Photobucket

Kuriya sure cheers me up. Feeling more motivated to go forward in life!

I love food. Good food. :D

—————————————————————————————

after dinner, we headed to Indochine for the Russia Day countdown party.
Photobucket

the russian DJ brought the russia party scene into indochine.

it was lots of fun with them! lovin’ the peeps!

can’t wait for the opportunity to experience the real russian-style parties in Moscow!

hopefully next year?

Bare Your Sole 2009

last saturday, i went for a early morning event, for a good cause.

Bare Your Sole – Bare Foot Walk 2009.

This is a fund-raising campaign for the children in the 3rd world countries who have no shoes. For every $10 donated, Crocs will donate a pair of shoes to these kids.

And we had a brief taste on how these kids lived in their countries – walking bare foot.

Photobucket

Pop Summer!

This summer, everything spells bold and bright.

Photobucket

Ditch your boring browns and dreary neutrals. This season, eye makeup is going fun!

Bold teals, rich royal blues…
Photobucket

Bright yellows, poppy pinks…
Photobucket

Seductive violets…
Photobucket

I have gotten myself 2 candy pop colors from Ettusais!
Photobucket

Combining the colors from the feminine palette, I have created 2 looks!
Photobucket

Icy Cool Blue…
Photobucket

1. Use the pearl white as base, spread over the entire lid.

2. Followed by BL1, apply on your eyelids.

3. Pick up some pearl white, using the same applicator (same side as the BL1 to create a light dreamy blue), soften the edges and the inner corner of your eyes.

4. Pick up some black and BL1 and line your lids. It will give a dark blue color that blends in with the look.

Photobucket

A nice vibrant and yet subtle blue..
Photobucket

 

Sunkiss Glow…
Photobucket

1. Use the pearl white as base, spread over the lid entirely.

2. Followed by PK1, apply on the outer eyelid and blend the colour.

3. Pick up some pearl white, using the same applicator (same side as the PK1 to create a soft peach color), apply to the inner eyelid.

4. Pick up some black and dark pinkish-purple and line your lids. Add on some PK1 to soften the line.

Photobucket

A glowing subtle orangey pink. (:
Photobucket

*The most important key to note is to remember that a little bit goes a long way!

And when making a bold eye shadow choice, keep the rest of the face soft and neutral. ;)

champagne toast

Photobucket

had a great champagne buffet lunch @ Regent Hotel.

i love the pan-seared foie gras. the fresh one taste great too!! i had 3 servings of them.. haha…

the selection of italian cheeses were excellent. even better with the truffle honey and prune jelly.

parma ham was fresh, lamb chops were juicy and tender.

gelato ice-cream was superb.

best of all, the chocolate martini was so rich with chocolate. super yummy! :D
