Hong Kong, Again!
Made a trip up to HK again : D This time with Evey… and many thanks to our 貴人 in HKG (both passing by and staying in HK), Paul, Eve’s mum and Meizhen which made our trip really awesome! Paul was an awesome guide and great help cos… he speaks Cantonese! XD Shop owners got very confused cos there were us, these two girls who looked very Chinese who couldnt speak a word of Cantonese, but it was the kwai lo who spoke fluent Cantonese instead to them. LOL. There was this smell in Regal hotel – every time we walked into the hotel we’ll smell it and it smelt very… sexy. A mysterious scent….
New Stuff from Ginvera + Cirque Eloize!
Ginvera’s a long established brand, and its Marvel Gel has kept it’s place inside my bathroom as one of the to-reach-for exfoliators no matter which house I’m at : D So quite a while ago, thru thesamplestore.sg, I got some new products from Ginvera to try! First up, the Ginvera Green Tea Nude Cover BB Cream! This marks their foray into the BB Cream market, I believe, and it comes in their typical green plastic packaging, but with a sparkly wintery airbrush feel around the edges which was pretty nice, but honestly, I feel, the packaging can be done improved? Perhaps paper would be a greener option. : D The Green Tea Nude Cover BB…
FOTD with Mezical Double eyelid fibre for Gabriel & Dresden at Zouk Singapore!
Went for Gabriel & Dresden at Zouk last Friday and it was FANTASTIC! Gabriel & Dresden are finally back together again!!! (They disbanded for a few years and we were super sad.)

There was a bunch of people doing the bollywood dance moves LOL and Mynn joined in fun which cracked us up. eve + mynn + marcus + francis + jole + moses + mark + me : D It’s been a long time since I tried the double eyelid fibre (sometimes I use 4 to get it right – urgh practice makes…

A flood of pics! Still waiting for pics from my photog : D So here’s some from my friend’s cameras!
Another week just passed by…
So last Saturday, I got married. And made one of my bffs cry. The other one was stronger. Hahhahaa. Received my albums for instaxs.. they’re so pretty and are in such happy colors that I couldn’t resist. They cost around $11 each inclusive of shipping! Each album comes with a free sticker too and holds 72 photos. From Gmarket. Had pancakes with the bff, min and Carol at Strictly Pancakes! Yum yum. I loooooooooooooveeeeee the field mushrooms. Received my DropQuest 2011 prizes! A hoodie and signed drawing : D Also decided to compile all my items for sale into one page (look on top! FOR SALE link!)…

Post Wedding Updates: The Wedding Montage (家后) by Chufang <3
I heard that some people in the crowd yelled “QI MONG!” when it was played, hahaha. Thank you Fang my social campaign manager for producing it within a day, i’m super happy with it and thank you AMZ my hokkien ahlian for singing 家后 live!!! ; ) (It’s JiangHui’s voice now, but at the wedding, it was super awesome to have someone singing the song instead of playing from a CD. Kudos to Genevieve and Joan too, I don’t have the videos of you guys singing yet but the videographer has! Will wait for him to pass to me.)
Busy bee
I’ve been really busy with wedding stuff and Risque.sg’s opening, so… here’s a few pictures of our wedding photos and our unofficial iphone wedding invite : ) Thanks to Eye-Deas Photography! : ) Invite designed by myself. I decided to do away with the album cos… 1. No time to get it done and 2. Can’t bear to part $1000 for an album 3. Save paper So in the end, the brilliant idea of using an iPad as a “digital photo album” came to mind and some lovely friends automatically offered to lend me theirs, alongside with an iPad 2 which my dad just bought recently (and has yet to arrive)…
The week in pictures… plus Tulips In a Bowl!
Met up with the girls and a thorn in the roses for lunch in Raffles Place. : D It was dear Genevieve’s birthday and her lovely friends, Cherring & Cheryl threw her a surprise party! : ) Super sweet of them la. It was also the night where I had to leave early to get to another event, but guess what, I got stuck inside the HDB carpark next to NEX for ONE AND A HALF HOURS….. Because of the rally that was going on. Yes one and a half hours. No car was moving, nothing was moving except angry aunties and uncles. There was also a nice uncle who asked me if I was…

HDB
Our notice to pay the lease for our Corporation Tiara hdb flat came in the mail yesterday. It just makes me think/wonder how HDB allocates their houses. Use Random.org ah? Yang’s married couple friends have been trying to apply for a flat without much success… From when they were a fiance/fiancee back in 2006, to a married couple, and now, they’re PARENTS of a cute little girl. THEY JUST GOT THEIR 14TH REJECTION. (they did reject a flat once cos it was really out of their budget – this one no choice? It’s not like they can afford it right?) They’ve even approached MP, but to no avail. What are you doing HDB? I just…
Kinokuniya 20% off 10th – 16th March
Good timing to pick up my Popteens & SCawaii! This is one card that’s really worth getting! Kino has been increasing the frequency of their 20% promotions I think. This includes 10% off stationery! : D
Singapore Food Trail at Singapore Flyer
My dad was being super hyper about going to the Singapore Flyer food trail to eat and walking from there to MBS (whaaaaat) so we went down today after my great grandmother was cremated yesterday noon… She had passed away unexpectedly at a ripe old age of 89, within 100 days of my wedding, and if she had waited two more years, I guess she would have upgraded to the role of a great great grandmother! : ( Funerals are a reunion of sorts. I see more people than i do during CNY and I don’t enjoy funerals, so Meh about that. I’ve digressed, back to the Singapore Food Trail. : D Caught It’s a…

Rabbit Year Blah Start
I think the year of the Rabbit doesnt bode very well for my family/relatives. Divorces, Arguments, people not turning up for CNY… Grandma discussing randomly solemn topics during CNY, Great grandma not recognizing any of us (even my mum!!!) anymore, Dad’s sim card died, no replacement till SATURDAY WTF. Filmgarde’s online system broke down – can’t book tickets at all Dad scraped the rims just before CNY (horrors!) My family was super noisy during the movie (Shaolin!) -_-” I dropped my laptop!!!!! ARGH! And then it keeps hanging! Okay despite all that I think we’re still gonna have a great year. It must be. I’m getting married this year! And of course, it’s super huat…

Wedding Photos: Preview
My photog is fast and very enthu. XD Some sample shots from dslr/iphone. According to Yang : “It just goes to show if the photographer got enough skill, anyone can look like robert pattinson! : x” He worked very hard for this shot, i think. : x Yang has always joked about how i’m his indian wife and…. there! And of course how can we miss out taking photos with the Polaroid? (Like really, Polaroid. $7 per shot man omfg. That’s 28 bucks lying there.) (all images credit to Ron Lee of Eye-Deas.com) Thank you Ron (Lee, not the female bff) for taking these lovely shots : D And perspiring, kneeling on the wet floor,…
Burlesque + Loot filled week
This week saw me running around, arranging things / fetching dad / meetings & more meetings and I’d say it went great! Happy loot for the week! Came in the mail, etc etc. : D Well the major stuff was that cheques arrived. Yay. Then came the ASOS stuff… And then the Sleek arrived, and I purchased my Tokidoki notebook MyStamp set at the post office for $39.80. But I got a lanyard free (ON THE WAY!) courtesy of Yang’s friend who works in Singpost – Not sure if i can mention her name, but thank you dear!!! : DDDD Met Ying from NailArtExpress after the event, and got some polishes from a polish order…

Yang & Evonne’s Wedding FAQ
I know this is like at least 3 months early but hey… I love it. HAHAHA. And some invites are already out on FB anyway. This is the reason why im marrying him – He writes well! I jotted down some ideas + requisites and he transformed it into… this! The wedding FAQ What should I wear? * Nothing white, this is very important, a _very_ ugly replacement wardrobe will be prepared for people who wear white, and those who cannot read properly will be given ahpek glasses. How much should I give for the ang pow? * As much as your friendship/kinship is worth. The going rate of buying someone… off is about SGD…
