short break. now back to hiatus.

an "updates" entry for you habitual blog readers who continues to visit this blog despite me saying i'll be taking a hiatus till the twenty-eight. wells.. :)

the most scheming website

if there is anything who has came to replace my abstinence from msn/blog, it will be FLOWERPOD. urgs. i can spend the whole day surfing - looking for things to buy, refreshing the spree page a dozen times a minute, reading up on skincare/cosmetic tips and yea, running out to buy those stuffs after reading all the raves.

so far i only got a benefit dandelion blush (and got rejected for my lip balm/gloss order *sigh*), which i don't know exactly why i am getting since i am never much of a make up person. besides, it cost a freaking S$45 and that's before all the shipping fees i got to pay. but you should have seen how those girls rave about it, makes me lemming for more!!! (i wanna get a georgia too!)

like i have to get that origins mask marvels after exams. and some stila lipglaze, or maybe mac lipglass. and and stock up on my za true white essence masks. not forgetting to start my online shopping spree after exams with xiang!!!

ASOS. Victoria's Secret. Old Navy. Benefit. Perhaps Birkenstocks. Hollister. Abercrombie. girl friends, come join in and we share the shipping, shall we? come come come!!!

you get the drift. that pretty much sums up what i have been doing, besides studying. erm.. in place of studying.

urps. i am one DEAD DUCK. quaaacckkk~


all other things

there was something else i want to blog about but it kind of slip my mind after all the above excitement.

ermm..


hmm..


argh..


forget it.

anyway, i haven't been studying much. i can't even say i haven't been studying as much as i would like to, that will be a whole lot of meaning apart 'cause i INDEED haven't been studying much, if at all.

and yes, i am in the midst of examinations already. 1 down, 5 more to go.

upcomings:
two on wednesday. one on friday. another one on saturday. and one last one next monday.

i even changed my wallpaper to something that screams for me to study. but didn't help. this is so screwed.

can't wait for hols to come.

i can smell whiffs of it already. :)


ps: i sound like some consumerist/materialist in this post. but i am only being singaporean. ha.


- back to the embrace of the hiatus -

facial-products-craze!

i get so excited buying facial products nowadays.

i mean, i literally run to get it when i am only using it much later.

acquisitions yesterday and today:
- skii facial cleanser
- olay white radiance salon treatment mask
- za true white essence mask

bwah. this is crazy. instead of studying when i really really should, i surf flowerpod the entire day and there was this forum raving about how good za true white essence masks are in lightening pimple scars.

after reading through the whole thread, i ran out to get the masks. all within 10 minutes.

all this despite the fact i just replenish my olay masks earlier today.

face ah face, can't you see how much i am giving to you?
time you start giving to me too.

photoblog: shan's wedding.

stand up and do a small victory dance.

follow me.

put your hands up in the air, and gyrate to that happy tune in your head. lalalalala~

then say, "woohoo!" 'cause qimin has finally, i say FINALLY, finished collating and editing the JS2225 (Marketing and Consumer Culture in Japan) report. she thought she won't be able to make it, but she did.

another round of small victory dance.

phew.

so i am MIA quite a lot nowadays. i swear i just had the most busy days of my life and from the look of things, it's just gonna be busier and busier until 28 november comes. i swear nus is trying to murder me. exams are coming in 11 days (considering the time now) and i am still rushing projects.

check: 2 more presentations and 3 more reports.

why don't you just kill me? from now till 28 november, i am going to be in my own shell and mug myself to death. there is no way i am going to give up after slogging most part of the sem. (the funny thing is though, i am slogging so hard but i ain't catching up with my work AT ALL. the whole sem has been projects projects projects.)

i shall make central library my second home. i shall study till my eyes pop out, my brain juices stop flowing, till.. till.. till my very last breathe. intensive intensive.

now i promised to blog about my advertising campaign on Creative mp3 players, and i also promised to blog about my prettyyy cousin's wedding. (we grew up together and she is getting married, can you believe it?)

i shall blog about the latter, since (1) i need to give my mind a break from academic stuffs, (2) a calm and clear mind is needed to bring out the msg of the advertisements and i obviously lack one now, (3) 'cause i know you guys prefer to see hot babes than some-ads-qimin-is-very-proud-of. :(

oh wells.. time for a photoblog!!! :)


the story begins with 5 girls (and a boy) who grew up together.


despite the convoluted family hierarchy (thingy), being around the same age makes us ONE. of course we were simplistic and you can say, childish. we played wedding games and dreamt about how our wedding day will be like when we grow up one day.

so on this day - 04 november 2005, one of the 6 childhood friends took a step towards fulfilling that dream.


(because i am tired, there shall be no more stories and just truckload of photos. enjoy!)

Day shots

Night shots





(can you guess who's who from the childhood picture? man, do we grow!!)

melvin and clement was there too.
we asked for red wine, and it sincerely tastes bad.
so its sole purpose is to serve our narcisstic needs.

another groupie.

my family, without my sis.

daddy and mummy.


we finally caught the bride at the end of the whole event.
so pretty!!! i wanna get married too (just so i can make up and dress up).

and the rest is history after we got into the car.

photowhores!!!

eventful weekend coming up!

and i realise.


i realise.. i've got nothing to blog.


i am closing down the blog.





not.

bah. ok, just kidding.

it's true though - i've got nothing interesting to blog about.
no out-of-the-world thinkings, no weird philosophies, no photos, no new happenings. and i refuse, i REFUSE to do another entry on school work. that's just so.. *yawn*.

in another 11 hours, the best advertising campaign in the world, or so i say, will be revealed to the class of 100 odd people. i am so excited!!! i'm praying that we do a good job in presenting our ideas. nail that A+ man! (ambitious, ambitious.)

i ain't presenting btw. i have been assigned the most important job one can ever imagine!! i am the BUNNY GIRL - so basically i'll just stand there and look pretty. hold up the advertisements. smile. stand properly. smile again. the presentation's strictly formal, so no bunny ear, no cute tail and whathaveyou to don though i would really love to try that one day. (nothing kinky about it, please.)

ahh, i'm such a bimbo at heart. and in case you are wondering, i earned my place to not present ok? worked my ass off for the report.

erm, i realise i just seriously contradicted myself with the last 3 paragraphs. academic talk. darn.. i've got no life.

and further proof of my lack of life - i met up with my two separate project groups on both the public holidays this week. the ultimate was going back school on tuesday, i.e. deepavali. yes, central library was open and the crowd makes it look like it's an average school day. wtf. nus.

yesterday was slightly better. at least it ended up with a brief shopping trip with me getting the Marks and Spencer chocolate digestive biscuit (for mugging) and a new tube of pimple cream from ROC (some french brand my project mate recommend me). it's been a long hiatus from shopping and yesterday was definitely not my day 'cause everything i wanted to buy doesn't carry my size anymore. ahh.. that esprit tee and mng jacket. *sulks*

ok. i shall return to edit my jap studies report.

before i go..

this weekend will be eventful.
cousin's wedding to attend on saturday (argh, i haven't got my dress tailored yet!),


erm, the bride's standing behind me and is blocked by my grossly big head. but since it's her day on saturday, i promised photos of the beautiful young bride. (i swear you'll eat your heart out she's officially taken. pretty pretty!)


and visiting irene mama, with the starhub babes on sunday.



have you heard? ernst ghwee was born on 25th oct 2005. woohoo*




photoblogs to come. :)

blogorich!

Got this link from Mr Brown's blog:



My blog is worth $7,339.02.
How much is your blog worth?



OMG! I am virtually rich, erm, virtrich? blogorich?

Blogorich!!!

I don't know with what measure they assess the worth of your blog, but this is pretty cool - check it out!

(miyagi's blog is worth $156,377.58, pinkshoefetish is worth $160,329.36, mr brown's blog is worth $934,313.70 and xiaxue's blog is worth *gasp* $1,918,871.46.)

From there, there is this pretty interesting link of a up and coming online t-shirt business:






Cute. : )

lucky i didnt get porn.

ha. sorry to those who came later and didn't get to see that very cute dachshund photo..

my bad. i was lazy to save the photo and upload myself, so yea, i steal their bandwidth lar by linking directly.

then again, they are very smart.

(click for larger view.)


man, they have a wacky sense of humour. i am so tickled when i saw this liner:

"Feel Lucky We didn't give you porn in return!"


(it'll be hilarious if they did, isn't it? hahaha. imagine some hardcore porn on my blog.)

i ain't stupid either. scroll down again cause the photo is up again! i saved a copy of the photo for back up *wink* ;)
