at work!

Happy 1st December! Seems like we dashed through the year didn't we?

And good monday, how'd the weekend go? I have much to share but that'll have to wait till later tonight or tomorrow even. Blogging from 'work' and gasping for time. Hope to see you later!

updates and another flea

My dears, i'm doing this flea on Sunday and i hope you'll come. We're putting out little treasures ranging from used books to tie & dye tshirts for sale. The gorgeous Mary, just as the explosion of colours on her tie & dye fabrics, is as creative as she is unique and will be there to take orders if you'd like a personalised tie & dye tee. More on that here.

Further, i won't be doing CD sales for The Sally's this weekend but i urge you to head on down and get it in the name of support. Or else, come enjoy the music anyway. I'm going to be there gumming up a 'little-big-project' that i am very nervous, overjoyed and grateful for. Maybe i'll share it with you if it all falls into place. IF.

Tomorrow on, i am going to be so occupied by mountains of important work. It's frightening to look a few hours ahead of now and picture myself running around mad for time. Oh it's looming over me already.

Taking on a random interview for an overambitious job that's keeping me in doubt. I'm lulled into thinking how pretty it'd be on my miserable resume and was almost about to plunge in at full tilt until i realised, i have just a tad more than half a year before i'm taking off. My options are as such..

I can:
(a) spare myself the ordeal of a challenging job, get on with a simple one and when the time comes, fly off.
(b) attempt something close to a suicide by going forward with it, learn as much as i can from the not so many months at it and depart.

What are your thoughts about this dilemma?

in the coming weeks..

Good Monday! Just so you know..

See you there!

i love you, Erin Wasson.

I'm head over heels in love with Erin Wasson and her style. What in the world.. It makes me want to hit my head with a racket just to quit obsessing about her. And i'm devastated that her collaboration with RVCA: Erin Wasson x RVCA that's launching Spring '09, is not only unavailable here, it also doesn't ship to most parts of Asia except Hong Kong if you're thinking of shopping online. Unless of course, it shows up in eBay? I don't know.

picture post: post-halloween birthday party!

I'm sorry i'm a little behind with these pictures from my brother's 18th birthday the other day but here they are now. Very briefly, the surprise and some of us in costumes.. Pretty hilarious.

On that day, my brother didn't shower since he woke and left to skate. In this picture, he came home surrounded by all of us shouting "surprise!". So gross..

And here he is showered and in his 'terrorist' outfit.

Me as the corpse bride, kinda. I'm not handy with make up so i found this idea here. And that's my mom's dress, t'was a gift when she turned 21.

Muay thai boxer, possibly the most comfortable outfit.

Highlight of the day, naughty school girl (with my bra on!).

More like Mars Volta turn nazi, Nigel.

Definitely best dressed! Those 'grills' were made out of aluminium foil.

Adam was supposed to be Tarzan until we decided he was better off as a caveman.

This was the Freddy versus Jason stunt.

We thought Mabel looked so much like Emily the Strange. Her intention was to be Bloody Mary and Salina was a ventriloquist doll.

Mr. James Bond and our very own Jabbawockeez.

I was so impressed! These kids made tremendous effort coming all dressed up and that contributed greatly to the success of the party. They were so much fun to work and party with. Overwhelming and I'm forever grateful.

and the party..

So there was laughing, dancing, costumes, food, cameras flashing, fooling around, mocktails, flairing and all kinds of fun. It was kick-ass with these kids. And my brother thought he had the best birthday ever. Mission accomplished! Here's a peek at the party..

Our little mocktail bar, bartender, birthday boy and friends.



A party is not a party if something dirty doesn't happen.

Saddam Hussein, 'Hitler', Bond and urm.. his girl?








I guess the creative process of this party and the cooperation of my brother's good friends were the best bit of it all. Sure was a challenge considering i had less than a week to put everything together and all within a suffocating budget too. Thank you again and again and again for making it the best one for that brat brother of mine. I'm glad everyone enjoyed dinner and themselves.

See you on the morrow!

bio-clock reverts.. finally.

Good morning! Look who's up this early? Weeewiiit~

Hahahah!

still on photos

I'm still at it, believe it or not. There's just too many pictures and i'm sorting them out for print to scrapbook and my sites. Collectively, it's gone far more than 300 photos which is a good deal for all that hardwork involved in the making. So i'm posting some out by tomorrow. Just don't be too hopeful.

Taking a nap, going out to grab dinner in some hours. Happy Wednesday!

Melaka is home

Taking a road trip out to Melaka in approximately a fortnight. My family and I are going back 'home' to my paternal grandmother's little kampung for Eid and lots of firecrackers (yes, we ordered them). Yay to suburbia!

I have been imagining all the fun there'll be a thousand times over. By the way, I found this bed & breakfast in Melaka recommended by casual poet and I'm definitely dropping by for a visit.

What a pretty little place..

Eeeeks! Makes me want to have toast and tea right about now.

And just in case you'd like to do the same, Voyage's Travellers' Lounge & Enterprise's address is:
No 40, Lorong Hang Jebat, 75200 Melaka
Tel. No: 06-2815216

I can hardly wait.

later..

Will you be there?

I might but probably not. Depends. Have a nice time if you're heading that way friends!
