OverTime @ Dempsey

Merry Christmas! As promised, the entry about OverTime Grand Opening! ;)

We all dread OT but now, OverTime is here to redefine the meaning of ‘After Hours’!

I was invited to the Grand Opening of OverTime @ Dempsey Hill and this is not the only outlet. There’s another one at Holland Village plus 5 others in Malaysia.

The interior of OverTime. Look at everyone gearing up for Lin Chi Ling.

The alfresco area.

Great to come in groups and chill with beer!

OverTime has got very good beer! It’s called Starker Beer, available in Aromatic and Lager. I was told that the Starker beer is freshly brewed everyday! I personally prefer the aromatic one.

Here’s the staff fixing the pipe on the barrel.

And here comes the fun part! With every barrel ordered, you get to hammer the pipe into the barrel!

All ready for cheers!

Met some friends there unexpectedly.

Patricia Mok was invited as well and I stole a photo with her.

After a long wait, Lin Chi Ling finally arrived at OverTime! She does look exactly like on screen. She’s like a real life barbie doll! My eyes were fixed on her the whole time! I totally regretted not bringing my DSRL to take photos……..

Anyway, here’s a clip which I took. Guys, enjoy! ;)

The bloggers had a chance to take a group shot with her! wahaha.

Us meeting her and getting ready for the photo. (We all look so unglam except for her! That’s how a supermodel should be – looking good at any time and all times.)

The group shot! :)

Just us, the bloggers. It was fun meeting and getting to know them!

I had such a great time @ OverTime! Thanks to Daen who invited me for the opening! :)

All the Ladies!

When was the last time you had a picnic outing? Was it with your family, girlfriends or your other half? Mine was ages ago when I was still a kid.

How does a picnic out in the park on a Saturday evening sounds? With an outdoor movie screening. Plus you get to do your part to support a cause :)

‘All the Ladies!’ campaign is having a movie + picnic fundraising event on 30th October at Fort Canning Park, from 5:30pm till late.

‘All the Ladies!’ is a campaign by AfA to raise awareness about HIV/AIDs among women in Singapore.

I know what you are thinking:
- HIV/AIDs!? I don’t think I will ever get affected by it.
- This is Singapore, not many people are infected?

I always felt the same way too. I mean, how unlucky can we get? *touch wood*

But it is a fact that HIV/AIDs is a real issue that affects not only men, but also women in Singapore. ‘All the Ladies’ is a campaign by AfA that encourages I and you to take proactive actions and view regular HIV screening as a right to good health, as a responsibility and commitment to our partner.

It may not be easy to take that first step out but what you can do is take half-a-step and show support to the now affected women and their families by attending the Movie+Picnic!

Advanced tickets are priced at $15 for 1, $25 for 2 and $40 for a group of 4.

Funds raised will be contributed to women and children initiatives that will help to make a difference to lives of many Singaporean females and their families living daily with HIV.

Bring along your favorite food and drinks for the picnic and enjoy a wonderful evening with your girlfriends at Fort Canning Park!

You can find out more information about the event and purchase the tickets at http://afa.org.sg/alltheladies

Tea appreciation

Last weekend, Kelvin and I attended the Multi-sensory Nanyin Banquet in support of K.A.

What is “Nanyin”, you might ask. Frankly speaking, I had no clue about it too.

I was initially overwhelmed by the setting of the dinner. It was decorated like the dynasty times while the performers were dressed in traditional costumers and held the lanterns as guidance to our seats. (I guess that makes up part of the multi-sensory experience.)

Unlike other dinners whereby they kick start the event with speeches, this began with the dinner and upon serving, the host announced “开席” (dinner commence).

We were seated with other friends of K.A., in a round table of 10. I have to admit that I felt extremely uneasy, especially knowing that most of them are from the arts scene. Unlike me, I’m just a student.

After the 3rd dish, the performances started.

This was really interesting. The musicians were holding 2 bamboo plates on each hand and played astonishing music through some techniques of clapping the plates! I was pretty impressed and enjoyed this performances.

We had tea appreciation in between the dishes and my gosh! I never liked chinese tea as much as that night! There was 3 different types of chinese tea served and I could only remember the name on one, which is 大红袍 (Red Scholar). All three were fragrant and refreshing. The tea was sponsored by one of the authentic teahouse in Singapore.

The chinese food served was also fantastic! Every dish was prepared perfectly and I was glad that I attended the event. The performances, food and tea appreciation was totally worth the price.

Oh yes, I wore a cheongsam top and bun up my hair to match the night. :)

FF @ Ettusais Girls’ Day Out

Driving down to orchard on a Saturday is crazy!
I arrived late for the setup and rush like mad to do up everything.

The weather wasn’t on our side, nevertheless, we had still a good crowd. =)

Checking out the Ettusais products.

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

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

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
