HSM 3


is it weird, but i totally want everything in that photo
and i would wear it all as well
of course, not at the same time,
but to different events

even zac efron's tux
ESPECIALLY zac efron's tux
so well cut. perfect pant length.
hot!

aii.
how to have a defined sense of style when i like so many different looks

ummm
how dishy is zac efron
:)

cannot believe i just said that
i m drooling over high school musical
(and the jonas brothers)
GAKKKKKKKKKKKKKK.

i swear its my year 7 student's fault
I M REGRESSING.
regressing!!!!!!!!!!!

happy birthday kev!

today was kev's birthday
:)
had some yummy cream sponge from Brunetti's, then went to Cho Gao's for drinks after the cons dent exam in the morning
most frustrating, i broke teeth and the !@#$%^& rubber dam tore thrice
!!!

drinks was super fun though
nice to just sit and chat for a bit
at least, until i got slightly carried away
....
-_-

anyway
HAPPY BIRTHDAY mr red face!

hope you had a good time, lol!











okay
in a grumpy mood now
felt sick after the beers and complained to clare
major unsympathetic woman called me 'old and useless'
!!!!

spent the whole afternoon swearing i would nevereverever drink again
after asthma attack and then falling asleep in Melbourne Central of all places
then again on the train
and the whole night alternating between extreme tiredness and insomnia
and thirst
-nods

on a side note, i hate carrying my inhaler around, its so big and awkwardly shaped. i should just leave one with clare, one with tracey and one with randall
tape it to their foreheads!

its a miracle i didnt loose the massive textbook i was carrying
but i somehow went into an asian grocers and bought 50 bucks worth of food
unintentionally!

well at least lunch tomorrow is sorted!

HAHAHA
some people just arent meant to drink


p.s some one just sent me a link
gasp. jaw drop
revenge is a bitch. i m half aww poor chick, and half omg!!!
i hope i never date a guy like that.

old old photos

im sitting here in my room the day after my first exam with a tub of Dolce Freddo's roche gelato and kicking up my heels.
finally i get to spend time here after studying at tracey's and downstairs for the past few weeks.

was going to take some pics of the new clothes i ve picked up, but unfortunately my hair looks like it has been visited by the flyaway fairy. maybe tomorrow?

must be the first day in a month i havent seen tracey and randall.
i miss!
cute!
randall=neuro god!

was looking through my hard disk to find a photo for a couple of friends
and the pics brought back so many memories!
thank god for photos, if not i would really forget so much. but now i have 8 gig of photos to sort out.

Fullerton hotel circa 2003

Hilton hotel Kuala Lumpur 2004



good old Lauriston school days:


crazy krispy kreme buying (yes each white box has 24 donuts!)
formal fever


OC house <3

there are so many more but it ll be impossible to share all!
maybe when i have more time i ll make an online photo album
till next time!

oh i must say a big thank you to the fabulous Lady Melbourne for linking me up!

milk run

went shopping and realised i forgot to bring my credit card out
so i have goodies on hold till i can go back tomorrow to get it.
the salesperson was so rude, kept staring daggers at me.
spent cash on a really pretty Anthea Crawford full length skirt, will blog about it soon!

my newest epiphany: as much as i like Ed Hardy, i would never wear it as i couldnt pull it off.



i wore my trusty Bardot denim shorts, American Apparel tank, cardigan from United Colours of Benetton, chunky booties that make me look almost 180cm tall and a silver daisy-chain headband i made. very georg jenson no?

Funny story about the Carven bag/briefcase, my dad bought it for me a few days ago after i told him i was going to make over my image to become more androgynous. i was happy and thought, yeah it ll make a nice uni bag whatever, and chucked it somewhere in my room. Then i told mom when she rang and she was like; wow your dad is really nice to you! i was like '??', so i googled the brand, had a mini heart attack, and put it back in the dustbag to place on my shelf.

gulp. well its not really my fault, i dont follow paris fashion much.

but i did check out Berlin fashion week photos, and look!


really like the idea of a horizontal strap on a massive oversized clutch
image from the alena akhmadullinass SS09 show

its so cuddly! like the bag holds you back when you re gripping it
HAHA

shopping list

currently listening to: if i were a boy by beyonce
contemplating going shopping for an hour before studying (sigh)

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

and this reminds me, i wore mom's crystal studded leopard brooch
to the last day of uni,
and it must have fallen of my vest, i cant find it anywhere

how heartbreaking.
sigh
:(

punjabi diapers

was feeling down today
cause its exam time and all
and i so happened to drop by clicktv to watch 'chicks vs dicks'
and by the end of it
i m fully like: sighhhhhhHHHHHHHHHHHH
i have a crush on paul i swear.

he s damn funny!
i mean
PENIS-LAGE?
wtf!!
BWHAHAHA

good spirits restored! :)

realised that i havent posted up a photo of my outfit for sometime
so even though i did nothing today but go tutor,
i decided to do so.
not the most exciting unfortunately, and i need a new haircut
if joh bailey leaves the Chadstone salon before i can get an appointment in, i ll hissy fit my way to a pair of scissors and DIY
HAHAH
self jackkkkkkkk.



i m wearing a Luigi Batani shirt which was bought for my Phantom of the Opera halloween costume when i was 13!! surprise, it has survived till today. and i m wearing my punjabi diaper pants which are kinda slutty cause there are no seams up the side. it folds over though. plus the embroidery is really pretty!

i did tutor my really cute year 10 student today. but the slutty pants were a coincidence! i swear.
hmm i should really try to hide my identity better
i mean, what if i get questioned by police for being a pedo!!
oh dear.
LOL.

mom flew off for a 2 week holiday today
in my exam period!
whoever said the life of a tai tai is overrated, is WRONG.
i want to be like my mom and just fly overseas to shop anytime she pleases.

on a side note though, how bad is the economy!
i mean she could just get a singapore airlines ticket like THAT. snaps.
guess nobody is holidaying much.

i should really change all my singapore dollars to australian $ while the dollar is almost 1 to 1.

her shoes are exactly what i m looking for!
pointy androgenous beat-up laceups to wear with itty bitty socks.

The tweed jacket on the mannequin on the left is vintage Chanel, the leather jacket with the lion medallions on it is vintage Moschino. The jacket hanging above the mannequins is vintage Kansai Yamamoto.
All vintage pieces were purchased through eBay. "

pearl

exams are about 3 weeks away now
and i m sure my friends will tell you
its very unlike me to start worrying
and gasp
study!

but i must must pass
i refuse to fly back early from my holiday
!!


havent caught up with the girls in ages
so went out for dinner on sat
to Pearl restaurant


the weather was just right, not too chilly
so i dug up my old black ruffled skirt from ages and ages ago (1st thing i bought when i came to Melbourne!)and paired it with a Yves saint laurent tuxedo shirt, cuff links which were a 14th birthday present from my dad (LOL), Bally pumps, Ferragmo bag and a Mikimoto pearl necklace.
the outfit was a little bit heavy on the designer factor, but somehow it worked itself out that way!

my secret (ok not so secret anymore) ambition is to become a chef
so i am on a mission to eat at the top restaurants and then steal all their secrets!

MUAHAHA
if you are lazy to read any further, pearl was not bad. 6.5/10?


clare's entree was a tartare of hopkins river beef, beetroot shoots and quail egg yolk and soldiers. think she liked it

hen and her tasmanian pacific oysters from pittwater bay and south australian pacific oysters from coffin bay with mint and green chilli nam jim. the nam jim was delish, but i dunno why there was 2 types of oyster, so confusing

as one of the most expensive entrees in Melbourne, i expected more from the pearl meat. it was kind of disappointing. maybe i overcooked it in the dashi broth? chive buds and enoki were yummy though.

roasted red duck curry and bri had some fish dish: murray cod and abalone?

the highlight of the night was definitely the desserts!
:)

coconut pandan panna cotta, pink guava sorbet, three melon salad and pearl sago and kaffir lime syrup


OMG OMG OMG turkish delight and rose petal ice cream, glace ginger and persian saffron fairy floss. so friken good..

taro dumplings with dark, milk and white valrhona chocolate, vanilla custard and gold leaf

And the sweet treats selection
which we took turns and spent ages guessing what each were
before asking the maitre d
orange blossom marshmallows, saffron fairy floss, black currant jubes, grand marnier truffles and verjuice jellies

i tasted the jelly and guessed it was lime
clare said lemon
bri just said it was sour

and hen said ribena
ribena!!
we argued
and finally the maitre d said it was verjuice
HAHA


it was a great night out, but maybe modern australian cuisine isnt quite for me
service was a little patchy at Pearl too

but i ll go back for dessert soon!
YUM


no idea what chanty thought she was doing


omg all this food talk is making me hungry
shall go downstairs to grab some supper
at midnight
:x

do not judge the hungry!

omg a thought just occured to me which i must share
i got a speeding ticket!
i saw the flash and saw the parked car on the roadside

its my first one!
:(
