Choice Baby?

came across this advert in Today newspaper..and my first reaction was HUH?

money back gurantee?
track record??(o_O)
easy to follow????(*_*)

really wonder how anyone manage to set up a company just for this? how do they 'teach' or 'make u follow' their course! is this based on any form of technology that we know?from the advert doesnt look quite tech-based..hmmm.. (O_o)

my head is filled with question marks...

The Sylvanian Lamb Family

my newest looooovvvveee~~~~



Prince Tutu made me a wooden gothic doll house to store the family..so we went to buy the occupants! bought the lambie family..consisting of Papa Lamb ( Ewan Dale), cooking in their lil hambuger caravan stall...Prince Didi bought me a Hamburger Caravan Shop for my birthday which adds on to the collection! love it to bitsssss.... Now papa lambie and mama lambie tends the shop and its their lil shop (not so little)~~~

Mama Lamb (Babbara Dale), helping daddy with the cooking.. dun think u think their caravan stall is so sweet? :)

Sister Lamb resting on bed, she looks like she is doing yoga..haha

unknown areas of Singapore

Do you know that Singapore has another mini zoo other than the Singapore zoological garden? yes, went to the Animal Resort at Seletar Farmway..its so cute! there are quite a number of animals there, goats, chickens, parrots, other birds, dogs, peacocks, rabbits, hammies (hamsters), even iguana and weird looking ones too..hee.. don't know their names..

ever seen how a peacock egg looks like? here goes!

wise and old ALWAYS associates with under the tree?

Pretty birdie posing for a photo!

Lawry's Prime Ribs

went to Lawry's Prime Ribs for lunch few weekends back~ *love* the place really makes one feel like royalty.. the service, the ambience, the deco..awww.. THE place for Princesse..hee.. :P

had buffet there.. but as for the food....urm.. standard was only ok.. i think i had nicer food..it wasn't exceptionally nice in my opinion.. just average.. as for the price, was surprised that its quite cheap! the buffet was only 37+++ if i m not wrong..and there was a $50 rebate..then they gave $50 dining vouchers for the next visit for using UOB platinum card and 20% rebate of the current spending stored in their e-card to be used as cash at the next visit for using Masters Card. so i had a total of $74 dollars to be utilised at the next visit! *shocked*

and here's their weirdly dressed waitress doing up their 'famous' spinning bowl salad and daddy digging into his oyster~

Movie Reviews

Been a regular customer at the cinemas lately..cos of the discounts!haaa! let me share this with u..mon-thurs Cathay movie tix cost $6 if u use nets for payment! good deal~~

Movie #1:

881

it was so raved about.. expected so much.. but it failed to win my tears even though i was a cry-baby. Yes, the storyline is touching but, somehow, the emotions were not fully expressed..prepared quite a bit of tissue but was disappointed.

However, was impressed with the costumes..stunner! out-of-the-world i would say..but its definitely not easy on the tailors! KUDOS~

Movie #2:

Ball of Fury

people who wants to destress, laugh their heads off (cos they can definitely live without their heads watching the show) should go watch this show on the little white balls. Not much emotional thingy,but be prepared to be amused with their creativity at creating 'laughing points'. its a show that makes u think PINGPONG is a joke. :S

Movie #3:

Lust, Caution

favourite show amongst the 3.. wonderful cinematography i must say. just love the way Ang Lee portrays an emotion. slick~ however, am terribly upset with the censorship board..why the heck do they censor 9 mins worth of IMPT screentime? just to let the movie be "enjoyed" by a larger group of audience (ie, those who are <21>

but overall, its such a great show.not the plot cos there is no twist,no nothing but for the cinematography! go catch the (uncensored) movie! :)

Food Art

Do you know what is called Food Art? what do you think of when u think of food art? let me give you THE rendition of Food Art... Here goes!

This looks like a little cute doggy doesnt it?head turned to its left to face u..can u spot its lil waggily tail on the right of the picture? :)

Come and see the lil doggy's fren! the camel! stretching out its head..now, is it a single hump or twin hump? ;P

now..introducing the last of their gang, the snake! does it look as if its sticking its head out of the basket? now, where is the indian blowing the flute/recorder/etc *really duno what it is eh* :P

Today is a PUBLIC HOLIDAY!

yes! today is a public hols! cos today is Princess's Birthday!

and for this year's bday present? i got my Lady Dior Cannage Bag~ *i got my dior bag, i got my dior bag, i got my dior bag* love, love, love, love it to bitzzzzzz...... thanks daddy! hehe.. have been eyeing this bag since eternity..and just watch its price go up every year..since this bag will neva be on sale, so its price just keeps increasing every year.. when i first set eyes on it, it was only $2100+ and now? its $2500..anyway, love it love it! hehe..

Even the packaging is so prettily girly~ the material for the paper bag is very good too!

Now, now,lets take a peep into the bag...see its "passport" looking thingy?it contains its IC, birth cert and everything else.. :)

Now u see the star itself! presenting my new lil precious baby! pretty isnt she? :) *big grinz*

The wonderfully soft and luxurious lamb skin, perfectly quilted in such pretty geometry and the DIOR charm so sparkly and classy.. who can say no to such a pretty babe? ;)

From Prince Tutu, he has bought my samsung lil baby as i've posted in the previous post.. also in white.. hmm.. it matches..haha.. *sounds damn bimbo*

and from mummy, stil contemplating which watch to get..hmm.. duno if i should be getting one anyway..haha.. got too many.. :P

Happy hols people!;p

Past...

was looking back at my prev blog.. cleaned out almost everything..also realised that my life in the past seems to be more happening! hmm.. wonder what is happening to me now.. life seems to plateau out and cant be any flatter i guess.. well, if this is good or bad, its up to one to perceive.. mayb i 'm too old for excitements in life..haa...

feels quite good to clean out everything..as though starting on a clean slate.. although things/entries were not exactly physically existing, but just feel like it needs to be cleaned up once in a while.. things that were supposed to be private, are meant to be hidden..haha..sounds like i've got so many secrets...
but no..just feel that now at another stage in life, all will tend to hide things which are of the previous phases. Till one is comfortable enough to share or old enough to reminenscence..

思念是一种病

当你在穿山越岭的另一边
我在孤独的路上没有尽头
一辈子有多少的来不及
发现已经失去
最重要的东西
恍然大悟早已远去
为何总是在犯错之后
才肯相信错的是自己
他们说这就是人生
试著体会试著忍住眼泪
还是躲不开应该有的情绪
我不会奢求世界停止转动
我知道逃避一点都没有用
只是这段时间里尤其在夜里
还是会想起难忘的事情
我想我的思念是一种病
久久不能痊愈

当你在穿山越岭的另一边
我在孤独的路上没有尽头
时常感觉你在耳后的呼吸
却未曾感觉你在心口的鼻息
汲汲营营
忘记身边的人需要爱和关心
藉口总是拉远了距离
不知不觉无声无息
我们总是在抱怨事与愿违
却不愿意回头看看自己
想想自己到底做了甚黱蠢事情
也许是上帝给我一个试炼
只是这伤口需要花点时间
只是会想念过去的一切
那些人事物会离我远去
而我们终究也会远离变成回忆

思念是一种病
思念是一种病一种病

多久没有说我爱你
多久没有拥抱你所爱的人
当这个世界不在那黱美好
只有爱可以让他更好
我相信一切都来得及
别管那些纷纷扰扰
别让不开心的事停下了脚步
就怕你不说就怕你不做
别让遗憾继续一切都来得及

好感动。。。超喜欢这词。。美。。。。。

好好地给你所爱的人一个拥抱吧。。这可能是你最后一次抱着他。。下一秒会发生什么事谁也不知道。。珍惜每一秒。。

Is blog for the bored & nothing-better-to-do?

maybe most are bored and nothing better to do.. but i guess some are just out here to share..to record certain events in their lives..to update frens on their daily happenings..

i guess for me its just an avenue to talk about things where maybe no one has the time to sit down and listen..its something like the mediacorp's modtv..talk-to-me-on-demand or listen-to-me-when-u-have-time..
what is the world becoming?even talking and sharing has to be so 'customised' or rather so selfish?*shrug*

Low Batt

my life battery is low.calling out for help like your irritating low batt phone which keeps beeping..telling u its hungry and needs a charge before it dies on u..

no..its not sleep that i need. its something more, something less, something so near yet so far..

i need a charge..

任意门

好希望能有一道任意门让我躲一躲。。
真希望能每天开心。。
其实也没要求些什么。。就只希望能天天过的快乐。。

Pressing Question

What do you call this little self-adhesive stick-on for hanging of handphone accessory onto handphones without the slot for hanging handphone accessory?

i've bought something like this from taiwan eons ago..it has a spongy 3m-like-double sided tape which on one end sticks to your handphone, the other side is stuck onto a plastic extension with a small metal ring connected. This metal ring is for users to hang the handphone accessory..

i know this question is rather long and confusing..i tried my best..cant seem to find a better way to phrase it.. :(
i cant sleep without the ans! i've done countless searches online but nothing close.. :(

The Research in Me

is it so easy to give up? seriously i think people who are not perservering are definitely not suited to do research. Just when you face many possible errors in your results you would advise to stop the research and adopt a whole new way of doing it all over again, without even trying to solve the problems? what is it with this 'give up halfway' attitude?if that is the attitude one has in life, the person will neva succeed.

To me research is venturing unfamiliar grounds, its all about trail-blazing..it is expected that we do not know how we are going to get to somewhere but we just follow by faith and with perserverance and luck, we get there!even in times when we do not get there, i always believe that we will discover new routes to other places. Even if we get lost, we will leave behind traces such that others do not follow our footsteps. Obstacles are so expected in research and the joy comes from being able to overcome it, and overcome the situation. Don't you think the more obstacles there are throughout the journey, the more we will be able to appreciate the fruit of hard labour?This is my passion for research.

i agree that some people are just lucky. beginner's luck or whatever luck you can call it. some are just able to make discovery by mistake and sheer luck. BUT has anyone thought of the hard work put in behind this whole thing?you may question if there is. but if you think hard enough, the researcher would definitely have worked very hard trying to get to destination A, but through all the failed attempts and wrong routes taken, he discovers a new destination B! yes, he did not put in effort in trying to discover destination B and it was by sheer luck that he did. This is because he was only focusing on destination A. despite discovering B, he still has yet to get the A! it is still a setback in the discovery of A. but like what i mentioned previously, sometimes along the way, we do find new routes to new places, be it through luck or anything out of our control. Finding B is a little side-tracked reward for going on the journey of uncertainty, obstacles and rough terrains.

knowing that i am such a pathetic risk taker, research is probably the most high risk level thing i have ever done in my life.

OPI colour

am finally buying the super covetted OPI nail colours online! have been talking about buying online since donkey years ago and now thanks to Yiming, who 'jio' me for the spree, i'm getting my own 4 bottles of OPI nail polish!! *love*



but here comes the bad part.. having to buy something which u have neva seen before..and having different websites showing different shades of colour when its SUPPOSED to be the same colour, doesnt help at all! wonder if its the setting of my com..but colours look so different!one moment its pink, the next website shows that it has more of a reddish tone! its so hard to decide.. guess it the 'price to pay' for getting reali cheap OPI colours.. sometimes reali wonder if i could live with such uncertainty.. i guess some might find it exciting, thus addicted to shopping online.. but really think Princess is not one person who can take risks.. even in this small, tiny, minute extent.. yes, its cheap for OPI but its still freaking $7-10 a bottle! its kinda ex as compared to lets say sally hansen?haha..and very ex as compared to Face shop, etc.. but well i really don't know how good OPI is.. only my manucurist knows.. cos she paints them on my fingers and toes..the only time i used OPI myself was my friend's bottle which was near to drying up! so noo good experience there..hee.. :P



was surfing cozycot trying to look for more reliable 'real life' photos of the polishes and got super inspired to do nail art..haha.. cos many people upload their 'work of art' to the forum for people to comment..sounds more like waiting for people to praise in my opinion..*sigh* why the need?? *shrug*

be considerate, Singaporeans!

anyway, had quite a good weekend.. went for both the fireworks display.. by spain and by china.. boy must i say china's fireworks are good.. better than spain's in my opinion.. cos spain's ending part looks like they are just trying to clear whats left of their fireworks.. and to clear them fast! they simply just shot a messy assortment of fireworks up and don't seem to be caring much for the picture composition when its up in the sky.. the thought that came to my mind was that 'whats a planet-looking-thingy doing together with changing-colour-normal round-display with self-scrambling-red ants-looking fireworks‘? doesnt it occur to them that they don't make sense and definitely don't look nice together? hmmm.. they need to consult the princess's opinion on choreography of fireworks the next time round...

but well, this is not the main point about fireworks.. the main thing why i mention this other than this being my super-no.1-top-favourite is that i got super pissed off by some singaporeans!now now, hear the princess complain... here goes! we reached the place about 30-40 mins before the start and found that the place beside the esplanade was rather crowded.. then we approached a family who were there to ask if we could place our camera stand beside them..obviously not blocking their view..and in fact over the other side of the fence which they were leaning on.. and yes, they agreed..so we were very happy and i was convinced that singaporeans were nice! then when the time comes closer to that of the fireworks display, more and more people came.. then there was this group of friends.. comprising of 2 couples if i am not wrong.. then one of the girl squeezed herself right infront of me.. she is damn tall and she planted herself right infront of me! amazing manners! so i subtly tried to push her out of my space by attempting to adjust the camera stand and stick my butt out at her..i THOUGHT she will realise that she is invading my space and blocking me, so move away and give me a little bit more space.. BUT　ＮＯ！！she gave me an irritated tone as if i was the one invading her space and blocking her! i couldnt take it any longer so i purposely pushed my bag in her direction, try to stand closer to her and poorly attempting to 'chase' her off. Yes, she did move but move in the wrong direction! she moved right infront of the couple standing infront of me and boldly block them right in the face! the couple just stood there stared at each other in disbelief.

i could not take it any longer, thus the words "so inconsiderate" came out of my mouth. The BF heard it. Told her gal and she had no response. So accustomed to this 2 words eh?used ever so frequently on her i would suppose. after which the bf attempted weakly to give me a 'pai seh' smile. but still no response from her. about 10 mins later, she responded! but in a totally unexpected manner! she shouted over the 2 other frens who were standing beside me, and ask why aren't they coming over to her side! *faint* apparently her friends know the situation better.. *jumping mad* comeon, they look like they are only 18-20+ years old as the bf was sporting a super short durian-botak head. just like the recruits! so whats with the younger generations? show some respects to the old ones like me! *grrr* i thought singaporeans are supposed to be educated in Civics and moral education, No?? go back and read your textbooks and remember what your parents have taught you. Yes, Manners is what i am referring to.

i told myself to take 100 mental pictures of her and make sure i can recognise her the next time i ever see her again. And am now super sensitive to the T-shirt with the word 'newbielogy' on it. Was worn by her bf. if i ever see this t-shirt again i will definitely scrutinise the gal with the person dorning the shirt. So if u have the t-shirt, keep it at home. DO NOT EVER wear it unless you want to be glared at. alternatively, u can give it to your enemy! i'm sure u wun mind him undergoing the scrutiny and harsh looks.

be considerate, singaporeans! :)

新的最爱。。

公主有了新的最爱！！猜？是tutu王子送给公主的生日礼物！其实力公主的生日还差一个多月。。但市场上可能不再生产这一类的手机了。。（对啦。。是手机！）所以王子就先买了。。

就是它! 其实也说不出为什么这么喜欢它。。就是不停的想着它。。可能是很想拥有一个很好的相机-手机吧。。就不想老是带着相机。。其实我的相机也是迷你型的。。hehe..（好像是在找借口。。）

超喜欢它的vivid mode sms..简直和msn 一莫一样！而且超多animations!拿来拍烟花也没问题！有空时会上载所派到的照片!

so here's Princess's new phone, new love!

我要去台湾！

看了今天的《都市大发现》。。台湾真的有好多东西吃喝玩乐！一定要到小巨蛋看演唱会，在马桶餐厅吃一餐！上次到台湾去好像是6年前吧。。都不大记得玩了些什么。。嘻嘻。。好像就到了那些‘普通’的景点。。和到处吃！台湾吃透透！

今天公主的心情还不算太好。。该做的东西没做完。。还听到了一些不怎么开心的消息。。其实也没什么大不了的。。就有那么一点点不开心。。不去想也就过去了。。

小王子今天没回家。。到朋友的家住。。真好命。。像当年我考完了o水准才有机会第一次和朋友到家附近的商场溜。。时代不一样了。。不忍老都不行了哦。。

为什么？:(

为什么用ipod听radio这么难？还得买remote control??*sigh* 还一位苹果已经改善了这项‘笨笨’的 ‘条例’。。 还得在浪费钱。。。

经天一整天心情还蛮不错的。。拼了老命在读harry porter & the deathly hallows..小王子终于读完了。。所以终于轮到我了！！得快快把它读完。。因为拖得越久，就越有可能听到别人述说故事情节！公主最讨厌自己还没读完，就听到故事的结局！！完全不能忍受！！简直会疯掉！！所以要快快哦。。。

晚餐到了manhattan fish market 吃。。真怀疑他们一天能赚多少钱。。每次去都排着长长的队！！真是不可思议。。但是东西好吃。。没办法。。嘴里是念着可是脚还是不听使唤。。跑到长龙的‘尾巴’站住了。。 ;p 他们的虾真的嗜好吃到不行！*slurp*
只好还跑去换我的crocs!把celery青色换成了cotton candy 粉红。。超可爱的。。嘻嘻。。好喜欢哦。。真觉得没选错颜色。。嘻嘻。。

好了。。一整天也就这样结束了。。不管自己有没充分利用。。其实能够有时间‘浪费’人生也是一种享受吧。。
