KittyLab 2009
Went Kitty-Labbing with Yun and it was certainly an eye-opener.
I still like Domokun best, of cos'.
;)
Happy with our RED badges.
However, they have the weirdest rule of not allowing the visitors to take pictures inside the exhibition hall.
They have this "No Photo taking" plastered all over the hall, but everyone was still taking pictures,
albeit sneakily.
The sign was kinda anal, if you ask me.
Being the rebellious me, I went ahead with the pictures despite being "warned" x198373 by the ushers.
We paid a decent amount to be there, so GIVE us a break la.
Here's the pictures taken with the risk of my IXUS being confiscated.

Long Weekend awaits!
Because my face is ballooning at an exponential rate,
it explains my favourite current pose.
Anyway, the usual Christmas fair is back at Taka.
And they have this Domokun corner
(Finally people realise that it's not a piece of shit huh!)
where they sell Domokun Plush Toy + Shirts.
I so wanted to take a photo with the half metre Domokun, much to the annoyance of my fellow photographer.
Who threatened to bluetooth my not-so-glam to the world.

There's a 1.2m Domo on display as well and it's wearing a Christmas Cap.
Going at $229!
Maybe I should ask the sister to get it cos' she think that my BIL looks like one.
Urps.
Cant wait for the power packed weekend to kick off!
Hello Life, here we go again!
:))
Have a good one, loves.

52 Days to go!
Check out this cool Widget I found.
Pretty neat huh.
Just less than 8 weeks to go.
Before we welcome the little princess to the world.
And I'm going to miss her mom like mad!

Happiness...
“Happiness cannot come from without. It must come from within. It is not what we see and touch or that which others do for us which makes us happy; it is that which we think and feel and do, first for the other fellow and then for ourselves.”
–Helen Keller

Fab night!
It was a great friday night
:)
:)
Ooo loving the weather too.
Anyway, was really glad that I tagged along Yun for her friend's,Webbie Launch @ Papa Palheta.
A very nice coffee place to chill on a lazy Friday night. LOVE IT! :)
No pictures of the place or the man behind the webbie cos' I was too "shy" to
whip out my tiny IXUS when all the big boys are around.
(Scroll down for the big boys.)

(Scroll down for the big boys.)
Check out his works here.
I guess his pictures do speak a thousand words.
:)
Kinda inspiring for myself, to know of someone around my age, taking the step which most of us dare not take. (maybe it's just me. Bleah)
To purse his passion. And making it as a career.
If you have not already know, I'm contemplating between a N and a C.
And guess what?
I've a chance to fiddle with them both.
Oh the luxury. Hurhur.
And mind you, it's not just a 50D vs D90.
It's a 5D vs D700.

Here's the big boys, side by side.
No less.
(I know I should have taken a better shot, but the IXUS was kinda intimidated.)
And it's the second time in a week that I managed to get my hands on the 35mm.
I hear the calling!
;)
The coffee I had 4 hours ago is keeping me very much awake.
I hope I dont hate myself tmr.
Bridal shower + Wedding Dinner.
Possible to squeeze in a run?
Now, weekends should be longer!
Have a good one pals!

N or C?
Weekend ALWAYS passes so quickly.
Had a catch up with the girls at Fang's new pad @ The Quartz,
which is wayyyyyy cool.
That's the view from her Balcony.
And Riesling is THE bomb.
Cheers to friendship!
:)
She has this coffee maker, which got Sh, Qh and me very EXCITED.
Cos' we couldnt stop snapping?
It's an Atas coffee maker that only takes its own sachet of coffee mix ok?
Anyway, it's about time I get a DSLR!
A N or a C?
After owning the IXUS, definitely I've an inclination towards Canon.
However, I've been playing with Nikon (thanks to my pals who's owning them)
quite a bit and the grip was better than I thought.
Snap a few pictures with mojo's and man, I love them!
Wait till I get hold of the peektures. Hurhur.
Think he nearly silenced me for my unreserved praises which I sang for myself CONSTANTLY.
Hmmm..
So which one?

Monroe's Words
"I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when their right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together."
Marilyn Monroe
Couldn't be more apt than now.

One year on
Ahh..Thanks for coming back despite me not blabbering as much as I like to on this space.
And for you (and you and you....)
here's another back dated post.

It's better to be late than never right?
;)
Since I've 1001 backlog in the office, I guess I need to find my balance point here.
So here goes!
If I were to get a DSLR (which I'm so going to do so to BALANCE my hormones), I'll go into food photography. Because food makes people happy. Together with the right company.
But before that, I need to make up my mind on WHICH one I should settle for.
Anyway, brought my favourite mentor to Cherry Garden @ Mandarin Oriental for a yummy Dim Sum buffet.
Definitely worth the moolahs IMO.
Allow me to digress here.
A good place to impress your in-laws with the food and ambience.
Quality ingredients with a vast variety to choose from.
Think abalone with Siew Mai.
And the dessert is to dieeeeeeeee for.
Can you see the freaking smoke oozing out from the Mango Pamelo?
Guess it's about time I bring my parents here for a goody meal after
being such a worry to them for soo long (though I still am).A good place to impress your in-laws with the food and ambience.

So back to the birthday celeb,
to top it up, I've made her a book of memories.
:)
I REALLY like it a lot. (to the extent of keeping it myself)
The past year has been full of wonderful memories, where I was definitely grinning from ear to ear.
Counting my blessings, as I plough through the photos.
Though things are going to change, for better or for worse, it's anyone's guess.
"The road in front might be endless, tough or unsure.
But it's better to walk together rather than alone "
And I'll always remember that.
(Though I might be a drunkard now. Bah!)

You are my Angel
You are my Angel
Once upon a time
An angel in the sky
Made a cover every night
Once upon a time
The angel loved me so
It'a miracle
In the snow, my heart won't be cold
My Dear
You are my angel
Tell me what you know
Something should be told
My Dear
You are my angel
Tell me where you go
I will brace behind your throne
Once upon a time
My angel gave me life
:)

QH and Bernard's ROM
I LOVE Friday night. It's officially the best day of the week.
And because I'm feeling CHIRPY today, I've decided to stop procrastinating and publish this post.
And because I'm feeling CHIRPY today, I've decided to stop procrastinating and publish this post.
It's been a while since I feel genuinely happy.
Go Green!
:))
====================
Anyway, this is a super-back dated post taken back in 26 Sep,
where one of my dearest girlfriends got hitched.
To watch them hustle down the aisle as man and wife.
To witness the moment where they took their vows together.
It's a fizzle feeling all together, which beyond words can describe.
It was really nice to share in their joy.
And they made me believe that true love does exist.
:)

GE Run 2009
Amazingly, I managed to pull myself out of the bed at 530am today when the weather was literally screaming:
"Go back to sleep already!"
We were hoping for THUNDERSTORM in the morning, but it came only after the run.
Bleah.
Anyway, after clocking just 5k prior to this run, I was just hoping to finish it under 90mins.
And as always, it's the company that matters.
:)
