INDIVIDIUM.com

I visited Art for Grabs and Individium was there so I checked out their products and decided to get 3 postcards - AF (artsy fartsy) & PS (paiseh) for me, CM (cookie monster) for Cynthia~

Clearly I wasn't gonna use them as postcards but I didn't wanna keep it in a box where it would be ages till it sees the light of day. Therefore, I stuck them onto my door... where I'm able to let others know whether I'm in my Artsy-Fartsy mood or Paiseh mood.. haha =P

I use the bottom half part of an envelope and cut out one of the sides to make a holder.. =)

Check out their website. They also sell buttons, bags and t-shirts. 

Diana Mini

I wanna get this!

3. I'm gonna start a "coloured-themed" photograph compilation/collage (it's time to cultivate a habit of bringing my camera everywhere)

2. A cup of Green Tea Frappucino while studying.. I need some Frapp soon!

1. Art for Grabs - Checking out the art & craft products by local artists or crafters to get inspiration and be amazed. Also gonna take a look at their alternative books.

My Fashion Lookbook 01

I've been having this unexplainable attraction towards navy blue dresses and love-shaped tube designs these few months.. already bought two dresses that has the combination of both. =P

I came across a dress in Modcloth, which btw is my new "window" (literally meaning on the pc) shopping spot. haha!

 

Modcloth- Angel in a Blue Dress $117.99

Modcloth- Next Step Heels $142.99

ooh those heel! i feel myself melting <3

Dress Hunting

I went dress hunting for my annual ball to get some inspirations on what type of dress i would like =)

1. Etsy by Salvagelife

This is my favourite! I absolutely love the colour and V-neck AND the ribbon, okay the whole dress.. haha =D

2. Etsy by goldenaftrnoon

3. Modcloth

This is my favourite too! I might see whether they have something like this in M'sia.

4. Burberry Prorsum

5. Etsy by Salvagelife

6. forgot where i got this =) but i really love the design except for the colour.

7. Ho.Lang Boutique

I love the first and the last. However, i don't think a fitted dress will flatter my figure... Need to tone up in 3 months! =P (btw, Ho.Lang boutique is Malaysian! Go check them out at 0107 Somerset Seri Bukit Celyon, Lorong Celyon 50250 KL)

Check out www.modcloth.com if you L-O-V-E vintage designs. They have lots of it! ;)

Bpsych Annual Ball 2010

I've been attending Bpsych's annual ball for the last 2 years and I actually told myself last year that I won't attend this year's ball, and save it for the last year + graduation dinner.. BUT, I can't resist it! They're having it at Renaissance this year! Fyi, bpsych had been having their ball venue at Sime Darby for all i know. Many people had been complaining about it, but seriously, I had no complains.. I only go there for the fun and people, not really because of the venue or food. However, a nicer place would make no harm right? How can I not be included in this change in Bpsych annual ball history?  That's why, i'm definitely going this year... haha =D

A Coffee Tale

It makes me think of vintagy stuffs.. haha =D So the theme seems kinda vague, unlike last year's "Masquerade"... I was thinking of getting a dress that's not of the ordinary LBD. I can imagine a dress with  vintage cuttings.. Something with sleeves (not the puffy type of course), lace or off-shoulder dress, wouldn't it be so Audrey Hepburn? ;)

At the mean time, more reasons for shopping! Checklist: dress, accessories, heels... etc. dinner bag- i've got the perfect one for any vintage dress. ^__^

Visiting the Merlion Country

Singpore is a really place. Clean and safe streets, Friendly and helpful people, Cheap and nice stuffs, Wide selection of delicious food, & very convenient public transportation. (psst, i especially love their comfy vintage-like cabs ;)) 

7/8/10

SeohYing picked me up from the Changi Airport and brought me to the hostel i was planning to stay. We reached Little India around 8.30pm and began searching the streets for the hostel but to our disappointment, it was fully booked! They referred us to a few other backpacker hostels but all of them were full house too... We didn't give up searching and without a backup plan, we tried our luck at Dunlop street, thank God SY was tall enough to see the signboard of Dunlop21 Hostel. To our amaze, they had plenty of space available!! It was already 10.30pm when we checked-in so SY decided to stay the night with me ^^ After settling everything, we went for a late dinner at a restaurant around the corner.

8/8/10

After breakfast, SY brought me to Bugis street while she went back home to have a change of clothes since she didn't bring anything during her stay with me at the hostel.. hehe =) I window shopped around Bugis street while waiting for WeyNee and WeyJhian for lunch. It was so tempting to buy everything at Bugis Street! Clothes were priced at around $10-19.90 at boutique standard quality. There were watches, tops, jeans, dresses, hats. I only bought a blouse for $10 and regretted not buying more coz I was worried that I might exceed my budget for the next 2 days. Who would've knew that the next 2 days were more of window shopping and sight-seeing. =/ but anyways, I had lotsa fun!

Bugis Junction

-bought a bracelet that has pleated leather around it

Opposite Iluma Shopping centre. Their food was totally worth the money i paid. $13.90 for a set of main course, coleslaw, garlic bread and drinks. Highlight was that the quality of their food can compete with Delicious in Malaysia.

Baked rice with ham and mushroom :'P

Ann Siang Hill

One thing I totally adore of this place is the colonial architecture of the shops. One more thing, the shops there sells weird stuffs that you don't get to see in Malaysia. ^.^ 

Kki pastry/eat/love & Thelittledromstore knick-knacks/treehouse/sunbeams

7 Ann Siang Hill, Singapore 069791

(I'm actually so obssessed with them that i could memorize their address including the postcode.. hehe *blush*)

this cute blue shop is a cafe selling Italian pastries.

Books Actually

They specialize in selling literature, some autobiographies and handmade notebooks and bookmarks. I SO LOVE their interior designing, it may look messy in this pic but I love a shop that has tonnes of things for my eyes to feast at and especially if everyone of them is so interesting!! ^__^  check them out!

Jurong Point

The DIY cake from The Icing Room that we made for SeohYing for her birthday eve celebration at Jurong Point. 

Group photo. It was great to see everyone all grown up since primary 6! =D

After this picture, my camera battery was blinking in red and I happened to have left my charger in Paka, so no pictures for day 3 & 4 =(

9/8/10 (Singapore National Day)

Wey Nee stayed the night with me at the Hostel on the 2nd night and she brought me to Iluma for a walk and then to Plaza Singapura for a movie - Despicable Me and the Arcade, which was totally a different experience compared to Malaysia~~ In the evening, WN brought me to Vivo City and enjoyed the view of the pretty lighted up Sentosa Island on the rooftop that has a shallow but wide wading pool. O.o We had dinner there and went home. Me, to my hostel and WN, to her home. 

10/8/10

Woke up in the morning, WN met up with me at the hostel after breakfast. We departed straight to Changi Airport and had lunch at Fish & Co. It was my first time and i think it was not bad, but if it wasn't for the promotional price, their original price would've been not worth the quality. Maybe it was also because of the lack of staffs that day which slowed down the cooking and serving. Anyways, i left for KL on the delayed AirAsia flight at 4.45pm. All i can is that it was an exhausting but satisfying trip! 

Thanks WeyNee, WeyJhian and SeohYing for accompanying me in Singapore. Hope to see you guys soon... I will definitely visit Singapore again, hopefully next year! haha X)

Books bargain bin @ Kinokuniya

Went for a workout with Cynthia at Fitness First today and decided to introduce her to my favourite lunch/tea spot at KLCC - Coffee Club Express! when we ascended the stairs at kinokuniya, i gave a slight shriek coz they're having a book sales! *now i can just pick any book i want and not worry about the pocket burning prices* V^___^V

My eyes went into turbo mood and scanned the few book racks for interesting titles and unique covers O.O couldn't find any, so i went to find cynthia and she pulled out a book gave it to me coz she thought i would really like it! Just by looking at the cover i can imagine the contents of it, and my intuition proved me right after reading the synopsis and a little peek of the first few pages (she really knows my taste in book) ^.^

[A Single Shard: Tree ear is an orphan boy in a twelfth-century Korean potters' village. For a long time he is content to live with Crane-man under a bridge barely surviving on scraps of food. All of that changes when Tree-ear sees the master potter Min making his beautiful pottery. Tree-ear sneaks into Min's workplace and dreams of creating his own pots someday. When he accidentally breaks a pot, he must work for the master to pay for the damage. Though the work is long and hard. Tree-ear is eager to learn. Then he is sent to the King's court to show the master's pottery. Little does Tree-ear know that this difficult and dangerous journey will change his life forever]

Then i continued my search and found this book--------->

[My Father's Rifle: AZAD is born in the 1960's into vibrant village culture that hope for a free Kurdish future. But before he is even of school age, Azad experiences strafing and bombing; he watches as friends and neighbors are assassinated; and he sees his own family driven to starvation. forced into a refugee camp in Iran for years, his family realizes that the Baathist regime is destroying the autonomy it has promised their people. The story of Azad's journey through his homeland, later to the West, reverberates with heartrending emotion and chilling loss. ]

These 2 books costed only Rm5 each! Just when i was about to head to the cashier, i spotted something small but had an interesting title-- Exploring the DaVinci Code...

So i turned into the pages and saw that they're good.. Read the info about the authors and found out they're Christians! + It only costs Rm3! that's why i grabbed it without thinking twice =)

Pre-Bday plans

Sling Bag Search

I'm searching for a new sling bag to replace my current one which is so worn out that the zipper pullers are gone, outer layer of skin is peeling off, and the colour white had become beige.. poor thing =S

Therefore, i'm looking for something versatile.. can be matched with dresses, pants, shorts or skirts. Also, it needs to be spacious enough for my 2 phones, wallet, some cosmetics/ smaller stuffs, outer pocket for convenience sake, tissue paper, maybe a camera, and preferably fits a mini umbrella too... lol XD *i know u're thinking that i'm crazzzyyy * AND it has to be around RM200.. hopefully below 200.. not too expensive. PLUS, i prefer leather.. >.<

oh well, my current one almost fulfilled my specifications except for the umbrella part.. so u can guess how much i LOVED it.

While window shopping at Isetan today. i saw a few that caught my eyes..

1. Liz Claiborne brown leather

2. Liz Claiborne black leather + beige and black canvas (love this one)

3. Liz Claiborne beige canvas and white PU leather (not real leather, and no outer pocket but cheapest amongst all)

4. Nine West black leather (also my favourite & comes in purple too)

5. Nine West brown leather ( too narrow)

SO, i'm waiting for mom to come and help me decide coz she's the one paying.. hope there'll be some discount then... ^^

oh yeah, i kinda sprained my ankle nerve when i was trying to stretch my legs while standing in the lrt today.. it hurt like mad, seriously.. i really thought something broke and the part that hurt went numb for quite a few minutes..

was waiting in the library today and i picked up French for Dummies and learned a few words like how are u, i'm fine, thank u, good bye etc.. ^o^

one more thing happened today in the morning.. i took my violin to play a song my cousin was gonna sing in a competition and realized that my skills had really deteriorate that i got a shock myself that i couldn't hold the bow properly.. need MORE practice!!! =/

that's all.. au revoir!

A day with the littlest cousin

I had lotsa fun today... which helped me have some release from the stress of adapting to the independent life i'm forced to face after 2 months of living in comfort..

Our garden girls decided to wear white to uni today! so check out our blog for more pics! ^^ Grace made 6 chocolate chips muffins with our individual icing names on each of them.... it's not only nice to see but nice to eat too! =P









































After class, some of them went for lunch but Jiamin and I went home in the bus.. Mom ( who reached kl this morning with my aunt) was waitin for me at Bangsar Village so i met her there.. For lunch, we went for Delicious again.... >.<
