A New Me
Oh well, I am just going to cut short now. Haha.
Zoe and I went to the Isetan private sale on friday. Frankly speaking, even though I am a Isetan cardmember for 1 year plus, I have never been to their private sale because the timings could never fit my schedule. So this year, I thought I shall just drop by and see whether I can get anything I want on sale... But the sale was crazy! There was crowd control, and the queue is so long that Zoe and I could not see the end of the queue after walking for a long time. We ended giving up, because we figured that it's going to take us 3 hrs of waiting AT LEAST to get into the store and ended up going to Mos for a little chat.
And she gave me a gel eyeliner as a christmas gift! She knows that I am searching for eyeliners that doesn't smudge and so she bought for me! Thanks girl!
And yesterday was spent at darling Huiteng's house for belated christmas exchange with IE buddies. Your house is so much fun dear! Got Wii (which I only marginally good at the drums and bad at everything else. But Cheyenne is the '神' in Wii...), mahjong, poker... it's like an arcade mixed with gambling den. And got so much food! It's so much fun... too bad we went there a little too late. Next time shall be there early so that we can play the whole day! =)
And I played mahjong the second time in my life! But now I really sucked.... I lost a lot. Luckily never play with money =) I want to play again! Somebody willing to teach me and willing to see a slow player please tell me!
Busy opening presents...
With Huiteng
With Vian.... I don't know why, but she looks like she's damn scared... haha...
With Ying Ying... who I haven't seen for a long time cos she's always mia-ing!
And I got the most practical gift of all during the gift exchange! A thumbdrive! Haha.... and I realised that most people thought of doorstoppers as the most unisex gift in the world because there were so many door stoppers gifts this time!
All of us with our gifts...
And with just one wink, we had left IE for close to 1.5 years le. Who would have known that 1.5 years ago, when we stepped into IE for our internships/ temp jobs, we would have meet one another and make such close friends? I am grateful that I met everyone, esp Huiteng who is like a godsend gift to me. And of course, the empty director's room that allowed the both of us to have the space to foster our friendship =) And I hope the friendships with one another will continue! And we must make it a pact to stop MIA-ing whenever we can!
It's so much fun guys! Next time we shall do it again~! CNY maybe?
While we were talking on christmas, I have a soft spot for christmas movies. I admit, some christmas movies sucks big time, but there are a few that make u feel warm and fuzzy, and others that makes u feel warm and empty at the same time if the ending of the movie is a little more depressing. The past few days I was hooked onto Hallmark Channel on cable, because the channel has a tendency to show very fuzzy movies which is like the perfect theme for Christmas. And there are so many good christmas movies that are not shown in the cinemas.... Here are my top 4.
1. Love Actually (really fuzzy feeling...)
2. The Holiday (warm fuzzy too...)
3. The Family Stone
4. The Christmas Shoes
Hmm, I know a few people don't really like christmas movies but these are the movies that you can try... =)
And lastly, by popular demand from my friends.... my new hairstyle!
Finally got my guts to do my first ever perm. I could have perm a lot higher up but since this is digital perm, the guy cannot roll the curler too high or else the thing would have burned my hair scalp. My hair now is a little short now, but after a couple of months of growth it should be fine =)
So, bye bye straight hair...
And now I am loving the smell of my hair due to all the hair products put on me by the salon... and I am looking forward to the reactions of some of my other friends who NEVER reads my blog to see the real me if I ever meet them =)
Cheerios! Going to watch Australia tml!
**Btw, I saw Jason Mraz's tour date and he's coming to 5 March! But I don't know whether I got the money to go to the concert... and Grasshopper is coming again in May (according to jul) for a concert! Wah! Another concert year! Broke le!
