I cannot be more thankful to God for blessing me with beautiful friends who keep me together when the tough gets going and for always reserving a part of their lives for me. :') Today! I (finally) met Grace after a good 6 months. She spent the first 5 months on exchange in Auckland, New Zealand, and had to nurse a fever + flu the whole of July but she made time for me today. Just couldn't turn down her invitation to lunch even though I've been down with a cold since last Friday ( how unfortunate really, it made the rest of my vacation slightly unbearable ). Although I arrived half an hour late, Ms Magnanimous still greeted me with her signature smile and the rest of our time spent together was nothing short of fun and laughter. We had lunch at Everything with Fries  (EwF) for the first time and I was honestly appalled at the price range! I really wasn't expecting everything to be in the $10s for a fast-food restaurant. Anyway, I ordered a grilled ham and cheese sa...

First, you think the worst is a broken heart. What's gonna kill you is the second part. And the third is when your world splits down the middle. Fourth, you're gonna think you fixed yourself. Fifth, you see them with someone else. And the sixth, is when you admit you may have messed up a little. Today's #ootd featuring a checkered box top I bought from some retail store at Bugis Junction paired with my all-time favourite trumpet skirt in black from G200 . (I bought one in a dark shade of orange because it was on sale.) Suppose I decided to add a little bit of colour so I wore my Reebok Skyscape and carried my patchwork backpack from Cath Kidston . Also, bun-up hair for the unbearable weather. Sported a cute ribbon hair tie I bought from Helen , which you can't see from here. When I first donned the whole outfit, I thought somewhere didn't fit. It felt... strange , something just felt so out of place but I couldn't put the word to it so I decide...

Haven't been able to update with ease because I recently sent my Macbaby for servicing, which cost me $128 , and so I've no means of transferring my photos from my camera to my iPhoto. And then my phone has started acting up again so Camera360 keeps crashing and when I tried re-installing, it just won't load anymore??? Also, my phone's running out of battery very  quickly. I think it's a sign that its time is up. Admittedly, barely anyone nowadays would use a phone for more than 2 years. My iPhone 4s lasted me through 4 years. -inserts proud smiley face here- Well, only 5 more months till I get to change my phone! Anyway, here's the update I've been wanting to post: Yesterday's get-up in the sister's  Ohvola 's dress. It is a size L and slightly big on the armholes so the laser cut don't show as nice and it's supposed to be (but I'm not complaining). Body hugging on the top and flare at the bottom is a piece I really appreciate....

Good day, folks! In the last couple of days, my Macbaby has been starting up in safe boot mode and I've tried everything I can to exit that stupid  mode but to no avail. Also, no matter how many times I try, it keeps telling me the password I keyed in is wrong. (Does that even make sense!?) That explains why I haven't been able to update the site for a while. Not that anything in particular happened but I couldn't upload the post I crafted for Father's Day because the codings were all out of place and I was using the iPad. I couldn't even save a draft because the iPad was going cray cray as well. Anyway, I've been too lazy to get my Macbaby serviced so I'm using the sister's one for now. So yesterday, I met Melly for dinner at Plaza Sing. We wanted to try 4fingers (like finally ) but I only found out yesterday that the outlet at PS is no longer there!? Been wanting to try 4fingers since forever but oh well, next time. Next time I'm going to t...

Hello, hello! Okay, before I actually move on to real  content, allow me to first embed a MV! Taeyang - Eyes, Nose, Lips My fellow VIPs out there would know that our soulful Taeyang has released his second album along with the MV (Music Video) for his title song 'Eyes, Nose, Lips'. ☺ Thumbs up, really! I've (legally) downloaded the album on iTunes and cannot  stop replaying this song! Honestly, I didn't quite like 'Ringa Linga' so I wasn't sure what to expect for his comeback but I am so, so, so  glad he went back to R&B. Sort of reminds me of the days he sang 'Only Look At Me'. ☺ So, in a sense, he sort of returned to his roots, which is the best part of this album because every song is just so. damn. awesome . Now, please do me a favor and enjoy the music~ ☺ Anyway, moving on to what I really wanted to share today. So exciting just thinking about it. It all began a couple of days ago when Mama suggested we take a shor...

Now playing: EXO-M - Moonlight 月光 Good day, folks! Greeting y'all again because it's been a good day and I want to remember it for as long as I can. ☺ Earlier today I woke up at 11AM. Surprisingly late but it seems my body clock has shifted again . I used to wake up around 9AM without an alarm and I think of that as a good thing but these days I've become sooooo  tired I don't wake up unless I need to pee. But anyway, yes, I woke up at 11AM. ☺ I went for a jog around noon because the weather was lovely - 28° outside. I had to take advantage of that so I went for a quick jog (and burnt 221 calories according to Runtastic). Today's run felt slightly different. No, I'm pretty sure my stamina did not improve in 5 days but my heart was beating extremely fast and it wouldn't slow down even as I cooled down. (That is weird, right?) For a moment there, I thought I was about to die. Thank God I'm alive, really. So I came home and prepared to meet Nisa...

I can't believe I've yet to finish compiling the photos from my 21st birthday so I guess that explains why I've a part III  right now. Bear with me, I'd love to complete it as soon as I can! Every time I recollect that day, it seems so magical and unreal (although it seems even more unreal that I'm actually 21 right now). Nonetheless, below are more photos and messages to share of the people who came to congratulate me. ☺ My maternal grandparents. ☺ I remember when Papa passed away, my grandmother came to live with us for a while. (Thinking back, I somehow don't remember my grandfather living with us then.) She was a strict woman, for sure. I tried to cheat once as she tested me on mental sums and she found on. She said: Don't think I don't know you're cheating.  Of course, the 7-year-old me was scared to death and back. Many years have passed since and now that she's much older, a lot of health issues have cropped up. It's som...

So, some 2 weeks ago, my (maternal) grandmother suffered a heart attack and was admitted into NUH in the wee hours of  Thursday morning. It appeared to be pretty serious this time round, bringing the idea of mortality so close that my mom decided my aunts should return to Singapore just in case. Within the next couple of days, my aunts from Cardiff (Wales, United Kingdom) and Ottawa (Canada) were here. They were at the hospital every single day because my grandmother was supposed to undergo a surgery. But the doctors later decided any form of surgery wasn't going to be helpful so she eventually got discharged (2 days ago) after going through tests after tests to find the best way to manage her heart's condition. And today is my aunts' last day in Singapore. I'm not too disappointed because we see each other over FaceTime/Tango every weekend and we have made plans to visit. (Last year, I went to Cardiff in case y'all don't remember. This July, I'll be g...
