To my brother,

Happy 15th birthday you freak. It’s about time you grew up and be a man! The problem is.. WHY DO YOU HAVE TO BE TALLER THAN ME?! its unfair thats what…

Remember when I’d blackmail you into playing Barbie dolls with me? Or when your Ultraman and Power Rangers figurines would invade Barbieworld and rob her of all her clothes? Ah… the torture those dolls used to go through…

I miss those times when we’d physically fight. And we’d each threaten to call mum - only to shut up when dad answers the phone. Like the times when you’d step on my foot… and kick my knees… and try to hit me… and i’d hold your favourite stuff high and taunt you because you couldn’t reach it.

Ahh.. the good old days when you were shorter…

Oh well, i suppose its a good thing you’re growing taller as well. Especially since I refuse to take care of you if no girls want you. But really, who could ever resist that cocky smile of yours? It just makes them wanna slap you. Oh wait, maybe that’s just me.

Congrats on getting straight A’s for PMR. As promised I’m getting you those Converse you wanted. You’re making your elder sis broke. What kind of gentlemanly attitude is that? Shouldn’t you hv belanja-ed me instead?

Okay, I kid. I’m loving the BodyShop lipbalm i got for my birthday. Its waaaaaay nicer than the A4 ‘Happy Birthday’ I got last year :P

So once again to my dear brother, Happy 15th and make sure I’m the only one who still bullies you. Its my right as your sister. I insist.

Take care and have a good year ahead :)

.

Sincerely from your abusive sis,
Me. Like duh.

.

ps. If I ever get addicted to TowerDefence, its YOUR fault >(

pps. Hey you possible girlfriends out there, if you’re shorter than me, you get my vote! :D

Well, its pretty much out of the bag now. Thanks for keeping it such a secret everyone. And that was sarcasm - just in case you don’t recognise it.

The internet is a sucky place to deliver sarcasm. gah.

Anyways, my birthday was… simply awesome.
(minus the fact that I had to leave the very next day)

And I guess I’m supposed to gloat, show off and post numerous pictures of my gorgeous self, my awesome dinner and more pof my gorgeous self. And in case you missed it, “supposed to” means “I should but I;m too lazy to actually do it”. Lucky you?

This is partly a thank you and partly just because I wanted to gloat. Kidding. the gloating part i mean. Ok. I lied. I looked gorgeous *self praise* so here i go: *gloats with glee* ngek ngek ngek :D

My date for the evening.

Camwhoring right outside in the chill winds. The view was spectacular, with a wide view of the city and its surrounding suburbs. That said, we didn’t stay long. Not that we didn’t want to, but we were literally shivering. Believe me.. it was cc-c-o-ooo-ooo-l-lll-dd…

Guess it didn’t help that my so called heater didn’t actually work either. wtf.

my ‘girly’ drink. Can’t recall, a cosmopolitan perhaps?

For some strange reason, there was a slight feeling of deja vu when I entered the restaurant. And i’m pretty sure I’ve never been there - i’d hv remembered for sure. Odd.

Clare Valley Veal with Grilled Potatoes and Puff Pastry. or something like that.

Oh, I think I forgot to mention the name of the place. Sorry, my bad. Pictures are taken at Windy Point Restaurant, Adelaide. Beautiful decor which compliments the unique architecture of the place lending a sense of welcoming yet intimite ambience (and no, i didn’t copy tht from somewhere). I’d personally recommend it for that special occassion :)

Food was fab. The veal was not overly cooked with the flavours of the meat still fully intact. Loved the grilled potatoes with the green sauce. Might hv some spinach blended in there somewhere, I’m not sure. But awesome. Wish they’d given more though..

The view. Not that you can see much from here. but the lights were beautiful.

I especially liked the lighting of this place. Its dim, but not too dark that you can’t see your food. I see mostly two-seaters bt there are a few bigger tables that could hold quite a few people. Things were muted and there weren’t any rowdy conversations. It really does feel.. nice. And expensive. lol.

just in case you aren’t bored of my face yet :D

Tried taking a picture with the night view behind us. But it was too dark. And its not like you can really see the lights anyways. Unfortunately. It would’ve been beautiful…

My present ♥

I loved it. love it love it love it! I guess sparkly things really does appeal to a girl’s heart.

All that aside, thanks for the facebook msges, the mms-es, the phonecalls, the sms-es, the cakes and of course, the pressiesssss! I heart heart heart you guys for putting so much thought into it! haha.. really had fun and believe me, I will NEVER look at cherry in the same way anymore… =.= (sounds like I’m giving a speech from the Oscars?)

Ps. I’m loving the chocs from my PD! ♥ I know it was difficult for you, but you still did it… thank youuuuuuu

hello hello hello!

Finally back in hot, sweaty, humid ol’ Msia. Did I mention HOT, SWEATY and HUMID? i think i did…

So I’m finally a year older - and its only a couple of weeks more before you people start adding another year to it. Not that it feels much of a difference - just that you can’t get lost in KLIA without attracting strange looks anymore :(

Yeah. I did get lost. And this really nice kind well meaning guard asked me if I lost my parents. And if I speak English. wtf. But he did bring me to the tram, so…

DON’T YOU DARE LAUGH AT ME! >(

Ok, gtg. Its time for mum’s homecook food a.k.a white porridge now. lol. Updates on the KohSamui trip later - maybe.

Went to Harbour Town again after abstaining for a couple of weeks two months. I know it isn’t the best places to shop, but really, where else CAN you go in this city? -.-

To be honest, its not the best time to buy. Noticed several old familiar pieces being resold at a markup price. wteff. Guess they’re trying to milk as much as they can from customers who are desperate to shop for the Christmas season. Boooooooooooooooooo!

Which is why I keeeeeeeep telling you ppl:
Don’t shop last minute. If you see it, you like it, it’s worth it, GET IT! :D

… but no one ever listens to me. hmph >(

The damages for the day?

Stuff from Valleygirl

.

Basics from Cotton On

.

A box to keep my accessories! And its pink! Im thinking of buying another.. its only $4.95! Ok, so its not that cheap. But it makes my things neater (sort of). And its pretty!

Darn I sound so bimbo. Sorry about the extreme editing. But as my room is going through a packing/cleaning/rearranging phase, its not the best background view.

.

My fav purchase! From Novo: 2 pairs of Ipanema sandals for only $20! wooooooo~

Guess thats the good thing about having small feet. Its almost always available during sales. Lol.

.

Random picture of Hungry Jacks lol.

.

My camwhore partner of the day. I like this picture :)

Other than the typical heal and blur tool - which any camwhore with a photoshop application would use - I didn’t make any other adjustments. So really, I don’t look THAT chubby do i? :(

.

What to do when the driver’s busy driving? Camwhore!!

idk what was I doing but other than the fact that you can see all my arm fats and blackhead-ridden nose, i kinda like it.

—————

Btw, im planning to try MyBeautyDiary facial masks. Heard it is pretty good. There are so many types to choose from though, any suggestions/recommendations on which to get? Would really appreciate it :)

—————

7 days left till I fly home!

ps. Left out the pictures of a clutch and bikini I bought. Better to have some mystery eh? :D

woke up with an aching headache this morning and its been throbbing in a corner ever since. Argh, where did THIS come from?? and just when i thought I was recovering.. booooooooo!  >(

Anyways, sorry for the long lack of updates. I always meant to! but never seem to. Blame exams. And assignments. And the weather. And the sun. And the boredom..?

Fail. Oh well :D

———-

Some pictures from Mamak Night held in UniSA City East Campus after a super duper long delay. Thanks SueAnne for the invite :) and Jay for boiling the egg? lol I seem to remember that for some reason. hmm..

Was supposed to be with Audrey. But of course, HE had to jump in. typical. oh well, no harm in having a cheshire cat in the background :D

.

No, they didn’t serve beer. This was at the Elephant pub where we went before going home. I still think having the last bus home at 12 is plain sad >(

.

Cindy and Carmen. Where cuteness meets style.

I feel fugly next to them. Haihz. Maybe i should crop myself out =S

.

Future housemate and current housemate aka the Chef and the DJ. And im just the freeloader lol.

.

A picture to commemorate Rae wearing contact lenses WITH makeup. Not that you can see it in BW - other than the fact she’s wearing contacts. and have smudges around her eyes. nebermind -.-

.

Pictures are in BW simply because the color of the original is awful. U know how it is when flashes don’t really work. And once one is in BW, seems easier if all of them were. I can’t help wanting things to be symmetrical (is that the word?) :P

Actually I do have plenty of other pictures to update. But I’m feeling too lazy at the moment. So bite me.

High sugar level alert!

Cupcakes are soooooooo sinful :(
… and not to mention super expensive too =.=

but then again, thats probably just me being cheap.
not as bad as some people, but i’ll be damned if that habit is rubbing off me! ugh.

This is why I seldom meet Dee - though I consider her to be one of my best friends.

Damage of $15 in the first 20 mins I meet up with her *sigh*

Braving the cold chill wind, we mustered whats left of our courage - and decreasing cash - and marched to our pre-planned destination.

First thought (from across the road) - “….. pink calour~”
Second thought (the moment I stepped in) - “….. pink calour~!!”
Third thought (sorry for being slow)- “….. ooooh! cupcakes!”

Not really a wide variety of cupcakes, but then again, how many types are there? It all comes back down to chocolate and vanilla based in the end anyways.

But at least now I understand the charm that ensnared Dee to this place. It’s very… pink.

Overall theme in pink and black. Found it to be unusually elegant and charming despite the initial hesitation at such an obvious Barbie parlour - with a gothic twist. Perhaps it was the pink striped wallpaper. Or maybe it’s the chandeliars working its charm on me. I do have a soft spot nice lighting after all…

Or perhaps it’s the Anna Sui-ish furniture and decor. Definitely a different world from the street outside - more… pink-ish somehow…

Divine tea which unfortunately tastes awfully bitter after the first bite of the sugar/calorie/fat/alltheunhealthystuff-based cupcake. Which doesn’t mean it isn’t good. Just that your tastebuds might turn rebellious after a bite of the sinfully sweet cupcake.

Guilty physically, but I strongly believe sugar and chocolate is good for the soul :P

And thus, began our sinful affair with the cupcake monster…
(Don’t be blind. Use your imagination wtf)

Dee’s pink nails with pink glitter. Which naturally looks natural, posing there naturally for a pink camera thats naturally just so happens to click. And it ends up looking so naturally sweet. Naturally. Plus points for matching the pink cafe theme lol. Though I have to wonder how anyone gets anything done with nails like that…

Being the typical asian - with a pink camera - in such a pink environment, how can we girls not camwhore? Shots after shots as the waitress looks on with mild amusement. It’s a good thing we all look the same to them :P

Apologies for the horrible picture of me. Unfortunately, our camwhore skills for the day was fail. Badly edited, but way better than the original. Mmm, time to train back that steady arm and finger - its essential survival skills in this self-obsessing era after all.

Before leaving, I can’t help but think, “… pink pink PINK!!”

I wonder how many times have I’ve said the word ‘pink’ in this post alone …?

.

ps. I feel slightly diabetic now. Should I arrange an appointment with the doctor? =\

pps. Met the terung today. Smiling at me looking totally guilt free. No doubt her conscience is lost in the search for a life partner. skippity skippity hop~

Tried going for retail therapy despite the rain. It’s a reward for doing my assignments, I tell myself. But really, who needs an excuse to go shopping? It’s the euphoria without the calories in alcohol and chocolate.

Meatballs for lunch in Ikea. Chubby kids everywhere.
I call them chubby because I’m kind. And nice.
Unlike someone who said they look like ET. as in the alien.

Shopped despite the depressing rainfall. Finally got some stuff I really needed, after constant procrastination. So yeah, happy. Damage wasn’t that high either, but maybe that’s because of the rain hampering my progress - sort of.

Mind you, I’m a very dedicated shopper and I don’t falter despite the cold, the rain and having difficulty braving the wind. Being blown sideways is NOT fun. Stupid wind.

Before heading home, I got free bubble tea again. Free, mind you. From him. Free.

first picture taken. and yes, I am that happy.
and yes, I do look like a kid sometimes. feed me more candy.

.

Second, nicer poser one. Now do I look my age?

.

trying to act cute wtf. fail i know -.-
damn i need to practise these more, never know when it might be useful one day.
just so i can get more free cookies/ice-cream/boxfromtherejectshop

.

and this is my free taxi service driver… who looks semi retarded.
he fails at directions. i fail at directions. we’re doomed.

.

but he makes me look smart in comparison. so i forgive him. i am such an angel. :P

.

It’s been raining all day and I’ve been cooped in all week. It’s good to be out sometimes.

Thanks for the drive. And the bubble tea. I am filled with $3.40 worth of gratitude. But I’ll give you $4.00 worth. Keep the change.

And yes, I can be awfully generous sometimes. =D
