Deepavali

Last Thursday was the company Raya and Divali open house for all employees at Celcom. Being in a multi-racial country, our company will throw big parties for major festivals (along with the public holiday) to promote the notion of One Malaysia.

Grafitti Art

John Heng and Beng Loon asked me if I was interested in graffiti shooting about two months ago. I thought, graffiti is an art right? LoL So I tagged Winnie along on a beautiful Saturday and we did some shooting somewhere in KL Central Market.

Bridesmaid Dress in Distress

The worst bridesmaid nightmare is when you couldn’t get the darn dress right and knowing you’d be wearing that dress walking down the aisle before the bridal couple, where the entire stadium of spectators will be looking at you looking silly before anyone else, is quite daunting.


I had a very similar issue at my best friend, Bin’s wedding where the bridesmaid dress turned out to be a complete disaster and we had to get something off the rack at the very last minute. The panicky feeling and stress is definitely something I wouldn’t want to go through again.


And yet.


I just cannot believe history is repeating itself again!


My other bestfriend, Claire is going to get married in two weeks I'm honored to be the maid of honour.


Few months ago, Claire has engaged a wedding planner to bring me to handmade our bridesmaid dress by an acclaimed tailor. We have opted for the design below, it’s a little unconventional, not too bridesmaidee looking and yet it’s trendy enough for us to wear again in the future.

However, much to our dismay the dress has turned out to be like this instead, a very far cry from the picture above!

Claire and Justin were very disappointed with the dress and they decided to scrap this and look for something else. But since they are residing in London and Cynthia (my other bridesmaid) in Melbourne, I’ll have to do the research and homework for the second dress.

Sempurna

I am so hooked to this song and the irony is I don’t even understand the lyrics. Whatever it means… this is one of the very few rare Malay songs that I like very much.

Rizal is a good friend of mine, one of my twitter buddies whom I haven’t seen in ages. So workaholic and I decided to go on a movie & dinner date during Merdeka weekend.

10 minutes after the movie “UP” has started, he nudged my arm and asked me.

“ Are you crying already?”

“Nooo… but almost. Are you?” I was gonna turn sideway to search for that puppy expression.

“Don’t look!”


I overheard a mild sniff beside me.

I love the movie “UP”.

Guinea Pig for Shooting

Last weeked, I was at Binjai Residency with my Microsoft ex-bosses to catch up but it turned out to be a shooting session instead. The boys wanted to test out their newly bought Nikon lens and being the only girl there, I instantaneously became their object or I call it the guinea pig.

I never thought I have the face that will look good on photographs or even in real life, although I’ve been repeated told that apparently, I have photogenic features.

Oh well.

Don’t know how to pose though…. Beng Loon and John Heng said I could do whatever I want. So I basically  look up, look down, look sideways, smile, don’t smile… Man, this is just so not me.

So they kept on snapping… …

Suddenly they stopped.
John asked, “Pull a sexy look for me now”

I couldn’t help but burst out in laughter.

C’mon you gotta be kidding me
