Big Bear's wedding

So, finally my sister has tied the knot with the man of her dreams. It was a simple wedding so i'm not gonna talk much. Let the pictures do the talking :-


This was taken the night before her wedding. My parents did a small party since all my relatives arrived at my house already.

I didn't manage to sleep the whole night because i was heap nervous about the church ceremony. I was supposed to do the reading and psalm which means i have to go on stage in front of everybody. I was so afraid that i was gonna do something silly(which is always the case).

So yeah..i woke up at 6am to start preparing the "games" to disturb the groom and "heng dais" and then quickly bathe and put on make up and then start helping the bridesmaids to put make up and style their hair. I would i say i did a pretty good job since i have no experience in putting make up for others or styling their hair *proud*

So the games i prepared were:

- limbo(which was a last minute idea)
- use their toes to pick up mahjong tiles in ice cold water which was seriously cold. But got technical error here because i put 2 pairs but i told them 3. HAHAHAHAHA. Pity the boys.
- burst balloons
- reenact Aqua-Barbie Girl MV


All set to face the world wtf.


Big Bear a.k.a. the bride. So damn pretty right? The hotel receptionist commented saying thats the most beautiful dress she's seen. Either it really is the most beautiful or she hasn't seen much dresses. LOL. And at the hotel lobby, got random people request to take picture with her. HAHAHA


My sister and i =)
When is it gonna be my turn? =/


The bride's entourage =)


My friends who came and join the celebration


My brother-in-law and his entourage. Yeah..my brother-in-law look damn smart and handsome.


Walking in..and i wonder why i didn't smile. fml. i look like i'm gonna murder someone =.=


papa bear and big bear. He totally cried btw. HAHAHAHA!! So touching. The small bear was practically bawling her eyes out at the end of the ceremony. She said once she started crying, she couldn't stop fhl. Ruin all the make up i did =.=


Thats me up there. Thankfully i did not screw up. PHEWWWW!!!


[L-R] Kean Liang, me, my brother-in-law, big bear and Winson. Both Kean Liang and Winson are my dad's trainee and Kean Liang is the Monash Mechanical Engineering top student with first class honor. Overachiever!!!


My favorite photo of the day =)


must show my Maid of Honor present from my sister..Minnie Mouse white gold ring. I picked it myself btw. HAHAHA!!!


And then the dinner ceremony...


I bought this dress from Forever New, Adelaide 2 years ago when i wanted to go for the Masked Ball with Jason Moore but then he had footy so plan cancelled. Finally got to wear this dress and i super love it. Its seriously super pretty.


Me doing the guest registration.


PC and i. We are not a couple btw. Everybody seem to think that he's my boyfriend BUT HE'S NOT. 


My cousins very cute that night. They created a Whatsapp group and added everyone. Then they decided to go out for a group shot to be made as the group icon. HAHAHA!!


Joyce and i. 


The bride and i(while waiting for them to give us permission to go in)


Small Bear and i


Eugene was saying that he's chopsticks skills very good and that he can pick up the slippery Pandan dessert. And he did manage to do it and was indeed very proud. LOL!!! Gan don't seem very impressed though.


YAY!!! All end. I can go home and sleep already.


my heels were killing me so i had to stop by Opera to get a pair of flats before continue walking to Michael & Guys to get my hair done and then from Michael & Guys to Benefit for my makeup. So cannot!!! Must change shoes. So i was walking around the mall holding my heels. fml.


My hairdo that night. See my pink highlights!!! Super love it!!!

Chillax in Style Boutique & Cafe

Hello!!

So there's a new cafe nearby my office and i switched my loyalty from Upper Crust to this cafe(name as per my blog post title).

Some pictures first. 

Chillax in Style Boutique & Cafe. Love their logo actually!! Very girly =D


Spaghetti Carbonara. 

This was what i ordered when i dined here with my colleagues. I got their set lunch which consist of the main, drinks and ice-cream. PSST!! The ice-cream is free flow btw. 


Spaghetti aglio olio. And this is on my 2nd day of dining here. I came here alone the second time because i wanted some time to relax and just go around the cafe to take some pictures.

And hence, the pictures.


The interior.





Lovely wall stickers =)





The white ice-cream is actually their latest flavor which is the Cendol flavor. The lady suggested to try it and so i did. It was alright. I love the frozen cendol in the ice-cream. 








I couldn't resist!!!


Selfie with teddy


And my latest tattoo which is gonna make quite a few appearance in my future photos =D

Why i love this cafe so much?

Because there's not many people there and its so relaxing and quiet. The cafe's name says it all. Chillax yo!! 

And i actually did notice that most of the offices around here have their lunch time fixed at 12.30pm and mine is 1.00pm. So, I've made the "effort" to control my hunger for an extra 30 minutes so by the time i go for my lunch, most of the other diners would be leaving back to their office.

Like just now, after taking pictures and eating, i just sat beside the teddy bear on the couch and i was just relaxing. Gave me a little energy boost because i really felt like i was at home. Such a good feeling after stressing out at the office.

As for the food, its equally yummy but they should put more ingredients ie meat/mushrooms rather than a lot of pasta noodles. Its still yummy but i would love to eat the pasta noodles with some meat rather than just pepper only.

Overall, its a great cafe and i love it. The lady gotta be prepared to see me more often. HAHAHAHA!!! But not for long since i've already resigned and my future office will be at Sri Hartamas.

Ok. Toodles~~~

excitement!!!


i was just talking to Jason(in the picture) and he just had his beep test today and as expected, he smashed it!! He's definitely a future firefighter and i can't be any more proud of him. I got to know about his dream of being a firefighter and umpire more than a year ago and i have been hoping like crazy that he gets to achieve them.

Well, he just moved to Melbourne as he has just became an umpire for AFL and soon, i hope i'll get the news that he's a firefighter.

I'm hoping to make it to Melbourne for his first game and i told him about my intention just now. Surprisingly, he said i should try to make it and that if his parents are not over in Melbourne, i can always stay at his place. 

I'm touched at that thought because he always seemed to be a private person and i never imagined that he would offer me to stay with him. Looks like despite all that i know about him, i still have a lot more to find out. He's definitely a special person in my life that i would like to keep for the rest of my life.

I'm really praying hard that both of us get to achieve our dreams and support each other along the way. I told him about my dream to be an air stewardess and he's also very supportive of it. When i told him i got a new job as an Accounts Executive, he asked me what about my dream to be a flight attendant. He remembers!! And i'm happy because he's the kind of person who will never do things that he doesn't want to. Super touched!!

Now i just gotta plan my financial status so hopefully i can make it to Melbourne early April for his first game.

2015

Hello. 

I know i MIA for very long but its because i Dayre everything now and it seems very pointless to blog it down twice. 

Can you go download Dayre too pwease? HAHAHAHA!! Okk. Quick update. 

Been catching up with Shamus quite a lot and we've been trying out new aces like pho hoa, maiu and cat in the box.

Didn't do much for Christmas apart from attending church and family dinner. Thats my cousin's Christmas tree. Very uniquely done. Its actually a tree picture on the cloth and she asked her maid to sew some beads on. Super creative!

I also went to Singapore for a short holiday with my family. It was super awesome and relaxing although it kept raining. Thats taken at the Gardens by the Bay.

Marina Bay Sands when i was on the Duckboat Tour.

Macaroon tree

Singapore flyer.

And my sister finally turned 21. HEHE. Thats my OOTD for her party.

And i also made a trip to Malacca and tried durian puff for the first time. Funny how i've been spending most of my time in Malacca last time and never tried it. Haha.

Ok. Update more pictures next time. Lazy already. Byee!!

as 2015 approaches

Hello hello.

I've been MIA for quite some time and its because i just didn't feel like noting anything down here. I' ve been using Dayre to blog and to note down what has happened so far. Ok. Let me summarise everything here.

Hmm. Now now. What is worth saying here? Lets start of with Christmas? I spend my Christmas Eve at work for the day and at night, we went over to Ai Leng's house for dinner. It was great to spend time with a few of my relatives and i did have fun. Food was great too. After that, we went home and i tried to have get a quick nap because i was so so tired as i didn't get much sleep the night before(thats another story) but i didn't get any sleep at all. Then we went to church for the midnight mass. It ended around 12 sth? And thats also because we left early because everybody was too tired and it was quite humid and hot. On Christmas day itself, we went to catch The Hobbit. It was meh. Came out feeling very drowsy because it feels like bits and pieces were recorded and just combined without and professional skills in it. Very choppy. So it wasn't that good. And then for dinner, we went to another cousin's house. So i guess that sums up my Christmas day. How was yours?

Ok. Bye. HAHA

December - a month to focus on myself

So, i came across this article on Facebook. Its called the "11 signs you are not ready to be in a relationship".

And i guess i would say that i'm not ready to be in a relationship. Why? Here goes..

#11 You are not happy
Hmm..the article said that if you are not happy with your life, if you get into a relationship thinking a relationship will make you happy, you are actually just burdening your partner and end up,you won't be happy in the relationship either.
In my case, i'm not to say that i'm not happy with my life but i do complain a lot so i wouldn't say i'm completely happy? I have not achieve what i want to achieve so i guess if i get to achieve what i want,i'll be like 100% happy. Who wouldn't right? but yeah. Anyways,i'm getting happier now actually. I'm starting to accept my life as it is and try to carry on from there. I guess if i am not happy,no matter what i do,i also won't be happy. So i have to be happy to start with and then proceed from there.

#10 You still miss you ex.
Ok. Not applicable.

#9 You're more than "too busy"
Apparently if you can't take time off for yourself, you should not promise someone else your time.
I think this applies more to someone i know BUT i am very picky in who i meet. Although i am free,if someone whom i don't feel like meeting,i will just decline. There are not many people that i always agree to meet. Generally, i will always try to make my time for my very close friends and a certain few other friends. The rest,i will just decline. I know i should change that attitude of mine and start meeting new people.

#8 You're unsure of your feelings.
The article says that love is natural and don't need reasons. Note that i'm just summarising the article.
Ok. In my case,everything i do have to have a reason which includes falling in love. I can't think of those reasons now but somehow,if i like someone,i will have a reason that i like him. So i guess mine is not natural? And i'm always doubting my feelings. Like whether do i really like him for him or just his appearance etc etc..

#7 You have trust issues.
If you have trust issues,you will kill your partner with your insecurities.
Absolutely my case. As long the guy is not my boyfriend,i will always doubt him and its bad because i know guys hate girls who are insecure. But unfortunately,with the amount of divorce cases i see in office and also in my personal life, its hard not to trust people. And somemore, sometimes the guys are the one who make me doubt them although i try my best not to.

#6 You need a savior.
Ok. Not very applicable to me either.

#5 You love drama.
If you love drama,you'll bring drama into the relationship and the relationship will get ruined.
I LOVE DRAMAS!!! But i'm not too sure whether do i bring drama into the relationship. All i know is my emotions are always very heightened. When i'm angry,i'm really angry. When i'm happy,i'm really happy. So maybe i do bring drama into the relationship? Not too sure about this either.

#4 You think relationships are everything.
Relationships are meant to enhance your life,not BE your life.
Unfortunately, when i get into a relationship, it will become my life and not enhancing it. Thats what happens when you become too serious in a relationship and can't take it easy. Sigh.

#3 You want to save someone
Not applicable to me because i don't believe in "saving" someone by getting into a relationship with them. Heck i don't even want to meet people often.

#2 You want to change for others
Don't really know how to summarise this but basically, i do change for people and clearly its not advisable because your partner is supposed to accept you for who you are. I guess changing for your partner will just make you a whole different person and that person is totally not you. So why must you change for your partner? He/she is supposed to like you for who you are. So i must not change for the guy i'm interested in and in fact,if he likes me,he's supposed to like me for who i am. *self reminder*

#1 You are desperate.
Doesn't really apply to me although sometimes i do wonder why am i still single.

Based on the above analysis, which are clearly done because i'm too free, i guess i'm not ready to be in a relationship. The most important thing now is to focus on myself,make sure i love myself and happy. And also, i won't be chasing love but i'm gonna sit here and let love find me. People say "YOU WILL FIND LOVE WHEN YOU LEAST EXPECT IT".
