I could wrap myself in you.

I don't know what is wrong with me, but recently my dressing sense has taken a 180 degree turn. I find myself shying away from bright colors (except when CNY comes into the picture); instead, I am wearing loads of neutrals-- lots of cream, nude, black, khaki, navy, to give you a better idea. I no longer feel comfortable wearing my chunky accessories, instead I am salivating over some silver Tiffany & Co. necklaces. Suddenly I have converted from a Topshop girl to a Zara girl.

I feel like selling away my entire wardrobe; I don't like anything in it. -_-




And another new weakness of mine: silky, soft fabrics. I wish I could just swathe myself in silks and satins.




Oh no, please don't let this be a sign of old age!

I told Teeny she has pretty lips.
She said thanks.
I told her it makes me wanna kiss her.
And she did this.


*****************************




I have been wearing flats a lot recently.
They are comfortable.

My mom (with the funny bauble bangle) was holding up her mobile phone, for Jing, who was on the line.
Jing all the way in Australia.
I miss her.

Cockiest face.
Ever.

Flushed after 3 glasses of red wine.
I have a geeky smile when I am slightly tipsy.

I am trying to wear bright colors for the sake of festivities.

Little snippets of CNY.

We were eating vegetarian food lunch at my auntie's house, an annual chor yat (first day of CNY) ritual:

Dad: (*pointing to mushrooms* )Come boy, eat some of these. It's good for you. these. Starts with M wan...

Me: Err, you mean mushrooms?

Dad: Nono! Something like Mungi...

Me: Err you mean FUNGHI???

Dad: YAYA!


I wonder how my dad got a PhD in Medicine. -______-


**********************************

After Teeny and I have established to my auntie and uncle that NO we are not getting married anytime soon,. they turned their attention to my brother.

My 14 year-old brother who is taking PMR this year.


"Boy, do you want daddy and mommy to get you a young wife? Last time in our kampung, boys who are 15 or 16 can get married already lor!"


HHAHAHHAHAHHA. Watching my kayu brother squirmed in his seat, and seeing a myriad of expressions on his face (shy/confused/nervous/wants to laugh) makes my day HAHAHAHA!


**********************************


Teeny trying to convince me that her burnt chocolate chip cookies are black because she used brown sugar.


**********************************

Met up with Bernard yesterday with Mey and Smalls.

We were chatting online today, and I apologised to him: "Sorry that we were so noisy yesterday, hope the three of us didn't scare your girlfriend!"

And he replied me, "No wor, compared to last time, you guys are very quiet"

Eff our lives.


**********************************

Smalls fished out her Clinique anti-blemish concealer, and I squealed, "I use the same one!"

Mey peeked over in interest, so Smalls handed the tiny tube for her to try.

"Mey? Why are you putting concealer on your hand??"

"I have a tiny pimple on my hand!!"

HAHHAHHAA.


**********************************


I was looking through old photo albums at my auntie's house, which has loads of pictures of me as a kid. And I realised I smile the same way now as I did when I was a 3 year old toddler. :)

CNY preparations.










As we were nearing my house in the car last night, my mom was practically bouncing in her seat, "I can't wait for you to see the house!". Teeny muttered to me under her breath, "Don't get shocked".

When the automatic gate slided open, I was greeted with abundance of potted plants and twinkling red lights. If I was excited about Chinese New Year before this, now CNY is smacked right in front of my face. :)

I stood at a side, luggage still in hand, while my mom begun to describe every little story and background behind the satin lanterns, the blooming chrysanthemums, the dangling ornaments.

My mom is so cute. :)


***************************************













Red nails for CNY. Caught in the rain. Teeny being all kung-fu with the borrowed umbrella. Brown Russia. Bright colors. I do not have a hawk nose, do I? Spoon swallower. Teeny's upcoming hairstyle. Got milk? I still need something red for CNY.


Update? I am still excited about Chinese New Year. :D

New hair!





*************************************

One happy Sunday.


Ice cream!

I don't think I have ever traveled so far just for ice cream before!





My friend purposely cut off my tiptoeing feet to create the illusion that I am taller (also note the squatting man next to me). T_T



Real height. :(





Met up with Ally!





Had one of the nicest breakfast food I have had in a long time...for dinner wtf.


Really love the place that we went-- Wild Honey. Ally was really excited that I like the place as well, "Means I can expect more visits here!" :D




Latte, white wine and water.
Liquid diet wtf.


White wine for the smoked salmon in our brekkie dishes, and latte for the abundance of desserts that we ordered! We both simultaneously agreed that girls should never control themselves when it comes to food.



And shopping. :P


****************************************






"I just want to find someone who will grow old with me and dance with me on the streets..."

"YAAA!"

Dedication.




Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will.
