Goodness, I am an insufferable lazy asshole. Been meaning to blog load the pics from my MTV shoot for ages but I never did get around ACTUALLY doing it.
Hurrah for new level of enlightenment in the art that is procrastination.

Anybody interested in checking out some of the action; its on Janice's blog. :)

Ok that aside, my new phone is the LOVE.
it was on promotion at Singtel, and Thank Heavens my contract had expired just in time for a new upgrade. Its about 68 bucks, but i traded in my old model and paid only 33 for it. A steal!
I've always lusted for a cybershot phone since god knows i've been instilled with the camwhore genes since popping out from my momma's womb.

check out my baby:

(PS: Mine's the one in the frosted silver!)
~~~~
Of course, without much further ado...I start going all trigger-happy!
First up was my grand-aunt Ann's birthday, which was held in some pish posh Oriental restaurant at the Novotel,Clark Quay.

Moi, my Ku-Po Ann/birthday girl and my Dad.


Gorgeously large cake with the chinese character for Longevity written across

Mind you, frail as she looks... my grand-aunt is a whooping 82 years old!

Hahah, and let the photo-snapping marathon begin!
This is cousin Judith, whom i reckon looks the most alike to me when i was younger.
Can you see the similarity?

Cousin Gloria

Oldest cousin on my dad's side, Tiffany :)

And her brother, Jonathan. (good lord I look like him so much its freaky!)

It was a pretty nice brief lunch affair, but which I enjoyed quite a bit as we do not get to meet up with one another these days. And yes, the food was yummy too; tho I was sorely disappointed for not being able to grab the prawn dumplings faster than i should have.

~~~
After, Mom and I trooped down to Central, which was a stone throw's away to do some shopping for a company event of hers. Unfortch, nothing was suitable so we decided to hop over to Parkway Parade instead.
Below is how I successfully cajoled her into my cam whore tendencies. WAAHHHAAA!

Shades buddies!

Went to grab a bite at the market/hawker centre near by, when I spotted him:

This old uncle was performing an amusing but earnest performance of juggling 2 balls whilst blowing the harmonica. For 67 years of age, him being so limber and friendly definitely deserves a worthy mention.
Oh yes, he also told me that he does not perform on Mondays as the market isn't open. LOL!







"bloody vainpot la!" yelled mom.

Yups...this one garnered quite a number of stares.

This is probably my most fave pic of Momma and I. ;)

Biting into a big juicy red bauble!

Its a somewhat glorious saturday evening, it passing by a whole lot faster than I would have like it to, but what the heck.
I'm sitting on my bed, garbed in only my boyfriend's tatty grey oversized shirt, snug as a door mouse but more temperamental than whistling kettle.
All credits go to the wonder of the S.A.F that just HAD to call him back for last minute guard duty. -_-
Never mind, all in the name of testing one's endurance.

So people have noticed the new designation I updated on my friendster profile (which, let me digress, is not nearly half as fun as Facebook); casting director for a particular film company.
My very first assignment was to die for; a campaign to raise awareness for Human Trafficking around the world, broadcasted on MTV cable tv.

Do check out its very own website, filled with top of the art photography and cool downloads, but more importantly, filled with shocking and vital facts about the harsh reality of human trafficking, which subsequently filters down to prostituion, forced labor and domestic labour.
It may come as a surprise to many that Human Trafficking is the the second most lucrative business next to drug trafficking.

KNNCCB.

My bank statement just came in today, and I so nearly had a coronary after reading it.
People who had borrowed from me, please have the moral decency to AT LEAST call and tell me if you have difficulties returning; don't act like you disappeared from the face of the earth.
That's really fucked up behavior and altogether very impolite.

I loaned J (lets just call her that) about 30 bucks about a month ago, and after countless attempts to contact her, she just does not reply.
Back then in secondary school, the same thing ever happened, and it took her 6 freaking months to return the 20 bucks she borrowed.

And the best part? She always had new stuff like comic books and stationary stuff whenever I met her. Talk about being THICK-SKIN and SELF-CENTERED!!!!

I think money is really something that can turn relationships, especially friendships sour.
As a currently jobless entity, pockets are tight and I'd appreciate the ones I regard as friends to have a conscience and spare a thought for me.

This has been a very crude and blunt entry, and it may be a lil on the offensive side; but perhaps some you may be able to empathize with me on similar past experiences. At least I finally let off some steam on this situation that has been eating me, and perhaps we can all learn something here.
~~~

Urgh.

Ok I cannot figure out how to mass upload my pics from my new Flickr account.
So unless someone can help enlighten me.. its gonna be a long period of of barren picture-less entries.

Blogger, feel my wrath!

Ok heads up. Much awaited Halloween post is here.

Pardon the lack of enthusiasm in this post as I am dead tired after scrutinizing half of Best Denki for a new television. My ancient television has just about outlived its usefulness, and it is about time we looked for its replacement to pass on the proverbial 'baton'. Haha.

Here we are with ambiguous Madam Sherry Ong the pilot and moi. Actually she was aiming for the sexy policewoman outlook, but the huge star on her hat looked for like the former, so yeah. Anyhow all that matters was the sexy, yea?

And yes, please ignore the fact that I look like I'm groping her, cos it was seriously a case of BAD TIMING.

Guys, heads outta the gutter please, LOL.



It was a Halloween miracle!!!

Sherry managed to talk the usually meek Han Hui into joining us for the night. I don't think you can tell, but she is supposed to be a gangster girl.
(She's tooooo sweet to be one la!)

Shameless cam-whoring outside the club.
On hindsight, I really cannot project that sexy vibe that I was supposed to be embodying for the night.


I dig his weave!
Afros are hoooot....at least until I caught sight of this other afro guy with glowing fairy lights embedded in. That dude certainly took the cake, and I wished we had taken his picture too.


Dead Japanese school girls... they remind me of my fave PS game, Fatal Frame.
Especially the one on my left, she just glares glassily at the camera; totally freaked me and Sherry out.

In front of us, this Geisha (with a kimono decidedly nicer than the one I wore last year, hmph). Her friend, whom I henceforth dub as the Undead-Cheongsam-Lady.

Bring sexy back. LOL

Pout Silly!

Flying kisses to mark the end of yet another year of Halloween madcap :)

Just back from Zouk's Halloween Party: Lair of the Damned.

My feet are indescribably numb from all that dancing; my ears are half-deaf from all that pounding music and yelling, and my back is aching from jiving just a lil too much.

But I had yet another exhilarating blast with my girls. Zouk never fails to give the best and most outrageous parties for Halloween, I dun ever think that MOS nor St James Power House(or was it Power Station?) can compare.

'Plus... I looked HOOOT (if i may say so myself, winkwink). I went a Moulin Rouge cabaret girl.

Pics to come soon! Peace out!

Yes Yes and yes!

It is finally here, the much hyped, much awaited movie, 'Factory Girl'!
Had watched the trailer about 2 months ago, and while I do not like sienna miller all that much, the late Andy Warhol (who had probably single handedly brought about the pop art revolution) and iconic (albeit tragic ) socialite Edie Sedgwick had caused waves in the entertainment scene during the late 60s.

A match made in glam heaven or just a disaster waiting to happen?

Go catch the show guys, I'm not even going to spoil the synopsis for you. ^^

~~~
I'm needing a job now, but....so bloody sian to work. To cut a long story short, persistent job agents are running my temper short. Can you believe that they had the nerve to call me at 8 plus in the morning?!

Not only that, they kinda told me to my face, that I'm kinda at a disadvantage when looking for jobs because my diploma is from a private University, MDIS. All I can say is:

WTF.
Honestly, how does a diploma in a non-government discipline make me any different from others?

I mean, think about it. Annabelle Chong came from a recognized University, and look how she turned out. And not too long back, we have heard glorious tales of normal academic and normal technical students scoring straight As for their cambridge O's, splashed over the front pages of local papers.

If that isn't the purest example of 'it-isn't-the-goddamn-school-that-maketh-the-student', then I dunno what is. -_-

"I love you...
I have loved you all along

And I miss you...
Been far away for far too long

I keep dreaming you'll be with me
and you'll never go,
Stop breathing if
I don't see you anymore...

On my knees, I'll ask,
Last chance for one last dance
'Cause with you, I'd withstand
All of hell to hold your hand


I'd give it all ,I'd give for us
Give anything but I won't give up
'Cause you know...

That I love you,

I love you all along
And I'll forgive you
For being away for far too long."




Darling, I miss u.
But we'll tide through this, together.

simply because..I love you.

Today I was asked why is my blog in a state of stagnancy for the longest time, and so here I am.
Didn't think that anyone still reads it, but kinda flattered when I find out that some of you guys still do.
So...*coughthankscough*. :P

Been busy with my TV production internship for the last few months, and while like most of my other jobs, it did have its ups and downs (abyss, really).
It's really because of great collaugues like Jessie, Yilin and Sue that really make my day, and the mundane-ness of administrative work feel a little lesser.

Working with the kids were fun too, except sometime when its gets out of hand...you kinda just wanna throw 'em little buggers outta the window.

But I couldn't have asked for a better opportunity to learn more about the vast industry of the media. I adore my directors and kinda feel bad since they're always so forgiving to my all-too-often cockups.
Sigh....*dun even ask*.

And on top of that, my baby had officially left me to become a man (read: army, NS)on Thursday, 13/9/2007. Along with my best friend,can you BELIEVE that? Double whammy la!

So I guess I'm what they call an 'NS widow' at the moment.
Not meaning to sound overly-needy/sickeningly love-sick...but I miss him soooo very much. The lonliness can be too much sometimes, and not hearing his voice as and when I wanted (like before) make me learn to treasure his presence so much more. I guess we are both learning how to cherish the far and little free time we have for each other so much more.

I'm sure we will work it out at the very end. No tragic endings for this one! Gan Batte!
~~~

Ok few short note of randomness since Im lazy:
-Yes my dear April... will upload ye DAMNED pics very soon.
-I want to go do some retail therapy...been sooooooo repressed.??!!!



-AND OMG. talk about a bolt out of the blue....SHERRY ONG has a blog now?!

Hows everyone been?
Not running amok and losing half your toes in some insane clubbing night I hope. >:)

God there so many things I wanna say, I can't even comprehend WHERE to begin.
Ok, lets start with the lingo that I speak more often then not, these days.

W.O.R.K: Yes, sad to say. The new 'driving' force in my life, the actual reason for my breakout of a multitude of zits and why le Boyfriend is feeling all too left out. Je'taime, baby, I still do ks?
I love my company that me being a receptionist, i dun belong to a one singular department, and everyone comes to me for all kinds of reasons.

Perhaps its because I have too attractive/alluring a presence?

Or maybe its the fact that I hold the only key to the stationary cabinet. Got you there didn't I?
Well what ever the reasons, I do enjoy getting blanja-ed ever so often.

Many of my colleagues are of different nationalities, so its really interesting to just observe them.
Megumi and Kensuke are the sweetest people, not to mention, very unlike what I had in mind of typical poised and prim Japanese folks. :}
Or Michael (Icelandic) who still owes me a Mac sausage muffin, and sweet Sophie who teaches me a phrase of French everyday. She is as chic as her fellow Parisans come.

In all honesty, work comes in shitloads everyday, but heck, I think I maybe loving it a bit more everyday. P

```
Im being kinda lazy at the moment, will be uploading crazy ass photos soon.

Ciao ye bitches!

**THANK GOD Blogger is back to normal. Was so cocked up the past few times I tried to write that I deleted it all together.

So the weekend if here yet again, thats something to be happy about.
My work had struck a whole new low yesterday so today is most welcome. (dun ask, it jus sucked ass big-time.)
Today was just about spending some well-needed quality time with the boyfriend, and we manged to catch half of "200 Pound Beauty" at Carl's place.
*can't even afford a movie ticket..haiyo*

Tomorrow heralds yet another homogenous week of hectic deadlines,bossy ang-mohs,an overwhelming barrage of flight itinearies and non-stop courier mailing.
Ladies and gentlemen..."Welcome to my Life".

*cue the Simple Plan song of the same name*

And kindly fuck off if your gonna say how come got Mass Comm Diploma, rather go and become a receptionist. Cos before I could even explain my case, about 5 people hv already began dissing.
(Tess,NOT you dearie. Dun get me wrong. You cared enough to quarrel with me and I thank you for that babe.:D)

Yesterday was great; finally some alone time with the boyfriend...tho it was fucked up near the end. I bought like a wire cutter and some ear-hooks for my Mother's Day project when somehow I manage to lose it along the way home. The stupidest thing abput it was that I can't even identify where I could have possibly have lost it.

That and plus me behaving like a menopausal bitch. Making a scene and venting my anger at Justin was immature and shameful of me.

Sorry hon. I know you never take these to heart but I still feel bad. You're the one person I love and need the most; and yet also the one who I hurt most too.
Im glad and somewhat amazed/touched that you actually willingly take all this BS from me and still love me indifferently.

Ok back to business, and I do mean business. Even on this Sunday, I am not spared. I actually quite like my job even tho it proves difficult at times. Especially when I have to create flight itineary, and i keep coming across weird locations and funny street names.

Like...wTF is Cayman Islands? Somewhere in Timbaktu???!!
OR, Canada and USA are not the same country??!!
Whats with naming every single nook and cranny street, ahhhhhh~~~~~~~~~! *faints*

Will i survive the working life? Stay tuned.

Long week, but glad its a Sunday and Im gonna catch up as much sleep as possible.
Ironic how I got a job that requires me to be the first one in the office when I'm usually a dead sleeper here at home. =.=
Anyhow, in other news...Becks (David Beckham) has a cute albeit stalkerish fan.
According to a tabloid website I frequent, he took off his shirt as a present for Becks, and then tried to remove his pants too..infront of the 4 thousand- strong spectators!

I just hope he's not gay cos that would be such a terrible waste.



I dug up some old pics we took late last year, but never really got around to uploading it.
Watch Justin and his 'siao' antics at the nearby playground.

Owning the giraffe!

That's an elephant if you're wondering.
He was trying to scale it to the top and sit on it like a Sultan...but failed miserably! HAHA

Random shots from Tess's bbq and our trip to Beach Rd.

My man and I were trying to find our way to the pit, when we saw these amateur fishers pulling up their net from the walkover. While they didn't quite manage to get what they wanted, i got an amazing shot of their catch.

My man caught one with his bare hands!! LOL nah jus joking.




I didn't quite trust the degree of cooking by the guys so I tried doing it myself...
Here's my masterpiece. A chicken Sawarstika!!


A shot of the MRT directory map earlier. which wasnt that helpful -.-



Kinda gross i know, but i think its sweet. Spot the heart motif in the middle?

WARNING: HUGE SHITLOADS of PICS COMING SOON!

OMG la.
On a temporary lease of insanity, I help my mom make her own blog. While it would be most interesting to observe her jot down her inner thoughts, she has also sweetly informed me that she'd be bitching about me stuff time to time too. So no way in hell am I giving out the address.

Thanks mom. You've rrreeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaalllllllly made my day. (=_=)"

I J'ADORE my mom's phone; apparently according to my sis (aka IT whiz), has a detachable memory card that can upload pics into my com.
Which I of course did, after painstakingly infra-transfering one by one for a good half hour.

PLUS...my new Painter program is the SHIT!!
Am so addicted to giving myself 'virtual plastic surgery' as I'd like to call it, and on to the likes of my mom, sis and boyfren. I think I look better with a sharper nose tho I sure as hell ain't daring enough to try it in real life.
Ah well~~~

We came, we saw, and I bought more than I should have, thanks to my good ol' impulse buying habit.

There is this really cool, far hidden shop at Beach Road area that has pretty nice stuff.
Pity I forgot the name tho. It has everything from Tee shirt staples with designs rivaling Flesh Imp but only going at 8 bucks a piece, only $20 if you get 3. Also has vintage bags, accessories and bottoms. Bought a green tee but really had my eyes on this halter-vest for 26 bucks.
While the place itself is hellish cos its humid beyond human tolerance, suck it up cos I think its worth it. :P

Plus..surprise surprise!!!

Sheer coincidence, my man and I bumped into my good friend Grace just few seconds after talking about her. I did a piece on her store when I first visited, remember? well, heres a refresher.
Grace has since moved from her former store Nitty Gritty at Icon to Bali Lane. She actually converted an upper shop house akin to an attic full of colors and vivaciousness treasures. The feel is homey and eclectic; get anything from whimsical tailored pants to lacy dresses and preppy tees.

The highlights of course; are her handmade signature fabric totes and accessories that she painstakingly put together. Can't find anything you really want? No fear; Grace does customizing requests! Individuality was never this fun and creative. :D

Im wishing that the Job Fairy pays me a visit soon cos the lack of spending power is killing me!!! But i'm getting a lil more positive cos I just came up with an idea to speed up my responses and maximise chances. Ppl wish me luck ks?

Oh and on a totally random note; im thinking of changing my look. Does anyone notice its getting very humid these days? Long hair equates to scalp suicide.

Just came back from Tess's bbq gathering, and the boyfren and I sure did enjoy ourselves thoroughly. Great food (tho the first 2 chicken wings I had were seeping some blood, major grossage factor) and great company we had for playing Tai Dee.

My man and I are explorers of new territories and the location of the day was: Chinatown!!!

Glory to the ever popular tourist attraction/epitome of da local Chinese culture/lesser known shopping spots!

Sans uber-long train ride and damned procrastinations along the way, I'd say this was one of the really fun dates we'd been in a long time. We started from Lucky Chinatown all the way to Chinatown Point, and saw really nice stuff here and there.
Had tried the tom-yam seafood noodle at a nearby hawker center and taste buds had fortunately lived to tell the tale. Tasty!...but better to prepare a bucket of ice-water on standby. LOL!

Ended the day chilling out at Coffee Bean (which I just wanna say serves better coffee than Starbucks but strangely not as popular) and sharing insane conversations about teleporting our brains to another dimension and sling-shotting his 2-yr old nephew Ignatius into the air.

I really abhor/hate/detest/dislike/(insert negative connotation) being sick.

Given its just the regular block nose, dry cough and dizzy spell but isn't it the little things in life that annoy you more than major ones? Anyway, enough about my ranting.

Trish, my friend from Perth just emailed me a joke which i found extremely meaningful. LOL!~


'A Spanish teacher was explaining to her class that in Spanish, unlike

English, nouns are designated as either masculine or feminine.


"House" for instance, is feminine: "la casa."


"Pencil," however, is masculine: "el lapiz."



A student asked, "What gender is 'computer'?"


Instead of giving the answer, the teacher split the class into two

groups, male and female, and asked them to decide for themselves

whether "computer" should be a masculine or a feminine noun.


Each group was asked to give four reasons for its recommendation.


The men's group decided that "computer" should definitely be of the

feminine gender ("la computadora"), because:



1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic;

2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is

incomprehensible to everyone else;

3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long term memory for

possible later retrieval; and

4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending

half your paycheck on accessories for it.


(THIS GETS BETTER!)



The women's group, however, concluded that computers should be Masculine "el computador"), because:



1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on;

2. They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves;

3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time

they ARE the problem; and

4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had waited a

little longer, you could have gotten a better model.




The women won.'

Damn tired but really emo-sated.

Scouting about the whole stretch of Haji Lane, Arab Street and Kampong glam had proven to be very tiring but exhilarating. Finally got to meet up with Mena today after god-knows how long exactly; and after a hearty lunch we felt a haircut (about time she dealt with her mop that she calls a hairdo) and Neoprint (i hate not understanding Jap gibberish instructional crap) was in order.

We stopped at this place called Quaint Secrets which had a helluva collection of beads. clasps, necklaces, etc. That was probably the very first store in my entire life that I entered bare-foot; as the sign outside said "to promote a cosy homey feel to the shop". Creative concept u gotta give it to them.
Mena and I both bought some chain and a locket for about 10 bucks in total. Reasonable and plus its white gold so it won't tarnish. Do visit there if you have the time.

Oh; we visited the No. 1 costume shop! I heard it was the largest and most extensive costume shop in S'pore. It was utter madness with the wigs department; I tried on this Marie Antoinette-sorta curly hair but guess what? The woman said I looked more like PHUA CHU KANG with my mole!?!

I resent that! I'm waaaaaaaaaaay better-looking than him ok.









My mole is sexier.

While i'm waiting for my weekly dosage of Ugly Betty, I thought I'd do a quick entry.

Had the most amazing dream last night, but won't go into details because it sounds a little silly. But I woke with the most blissful sensation I have had in a very long time.

When I was heading to the kitchen just a few minutes ago, i caught sight of my mom. Now bear in mind that this is my MOTHER we are talking about, and most of you who are close to me may know full well that she is some what of an overbearing, fearsome, and XXXtremely loud person. AND that is only when she isn't in a foul mood.

So when I saw her hunching over 2 big pails full of laundry, my heart kinda sank. I dunno... maybe because of the huge contrast in her usual self? Or that she is still slogging away for her kids who have yet to open their eyes to the world and the current reality? Either way, I'm feeling tinges of sadness and guilt at the moment.

I truly wonder what the future holds for me, or rather both of us.

I really like this new skin.
Its anti-teenybopper, with just the rite touch of childlike innocence and to a comfortable minimal. THANK GOD for that. Prolly means I'll be staying with this one for quite some time. hee

Have u guys watched the film 300 yet?


Trust me, I've learnt not to judge from thy seemingly testosterone-charged movie poster and trailer. My man begged me to watch it together, and under some reluctance I gave in. The fact that it was a treat prolly had something to do too :P

It was fabulousssss. Loin-stirring Gerard Butler reprises the leading role (I drooled majorly during Dracula 2000) on the silver screen once more as King Leonidus; fearless/hunky he-man leader to his equally hot brethen of 300. While it was pretty much what I expected: fighting, tons of gore, sex... did I mention fighting? It earned a reprieve in its star cast and the well-developed message behind the epic: Death before glory.

Other worthy mentions are the rich trove of Greek history, as the show begins with the introduction of a Spartan boy's coming-of-age rite. Its brutal, blunt and very in your face.
Unlike many of its predecessors, 300 is an a new vein. Set in a dreamscape film style, its more 'soap opera meets greek tragedy' with a very modern twist. Watch when the men march forward in tune of a heavy rock song!

Dun believe me? check out the movie website @ http://www.warnerbrosrecords.com/300soundtrack/

Loved it. While I've always been one for gore, horror and fighting shows, this one particularly stood out for me. I guess its also becos of the well-timed humor in midst of a macabre battle. Dry and sardonic. Just the way I like it. *smiles*

Oh yea...i just remembered. I hate xiaxue!!! argh...lol.

You know whats really eating me rite now? Singapore Fashion Festival. >(

Damnation to it for being so elitist, but then again I wouldn't have it any other way. It just sucks that I missed the Marc by Marc Jacobs show. I had really been looking forward to that; nearly to the extent I was seriously thinking about nicking my mom's Mastercard.

And whats not to love with the ensemble of stellar celebrities like May & Choy, Utt (My greek god divine), Clarence Lee (Make up artist extraordinare) and the likes of our local socialites and popular faces like Dr Georgina Lee, Beverly Scott Hornell..etc.

A girl can dream, and dream she shall.
