Had a photoshoot earlier today with another agency..this time round, i had make up and hairdo done by professional personnel..something which was a minus point is that it was also taken in studio. same as my previous one. didn't get a chance to experience photo shoot in outdoor environment.. but overall, still ok..but the make up was quite thick to me...i will say in the photos, it will not look as though it's thick but to me, when i look at myself, i can see that it was the thickest make up i had till today..

2 of my make over and look..

this is how thick the make up was..

After quite some time, my family and i got to have brunch together outside..we went yum cha at chinatown..it was raining since early in the morning..quite tough for us to go there. the meal was not bad, both my mum and bro said that some of their dim sum are better off those at "hong xing" where we usually had our dim sum at. this time we tried something new. i would say, i do agree that some of their dim sum are really quite nice. what's amazing was that, there's many caucasians visiting the restaurant too. we were then wondering how come so many of them also will go to the restaurant to eat..they also know how to eat dim sum?? cos usually we will think that dim sum this kind of things are more of chinese type of food..another interesting thing was that i didn't know that dim sum can also be delivered. the restaurant do delivery service as well. amazing right.. i'm excited about tomorrow...aniticipating for it... =)

these are all the dim sum we had

their delivery service..interesting right?

Happened to be back at redhill area past few days. one of those day,i had lunch with mum at redhill market where one of threesome and i used to have lunch or buy drinks there during my uni times.somehow it brought back some memories when i'm there. quite nice to be able to have lunch there again. ever since my uni shifted its location away from henderson, i have not been to the market anymore. some stalls changed but majority of the food which i used to eat can still be found there. actually i intended to take photos of what we had for lunch but probably because we were hungry, i forgot about it until we already ate half of the portion of our food. hahaha! however, as my mum said she wanted to buy some "kuehs" i spotted something. it is what we called "zhu long bian" in mandarin. it reminded me that i used to ask my parents or relatives to buy one for me whenever i see it when i was still a kid. it actually don't taste nice at all but just don't understand why every kid will just like to have it. perhaps, it could be the appearence that attracted many children..

"Zhu Long Bian"

was shopping around one of the past few days, been to plaza singapura and i realised something interesting. i noticed that there's a shop named baby spa. as the shop is covered with glass windows, i can see what the people are doing inside and what is the entire shop all about. i'm amazed. babies nowadays having very good life man..there's even spa for them!! the staff inside will help the baby to swim in a small basin-look-alike kind of tub. then, they will also help the baby massage..good life right..in the past, there's no such thing at all. spa and stuff are only for adults..it's already very good if there's chance to swim at a public swimming pool, don't even mention about the personalised swimming session at the shop...in this current era, things are so much different from then..

Last night, met up with my ex-colleagues from rws..nice to see them again after about 3 months since i left..also this time gather back together with those who went overseas...although we didn't meet for about 3 months, the feeling remains..all the fun and laughter were once again heard..our nonsense and rubbish throughout the dinner..very fun..despite that most of us are on different paths now, we are still as close. we used to name ourselves as 7 siblings, even till now we still behave the same which i'm glad about..hope that there more chances like this for us to gather again...both the ones who went overseas were so sweet that they bought each and every one of us a lanyard specially from orlando..appreciated it a lot.. =)

Couple of updates for the weekend..hmm..basically, also nothing much happened. stayed at home most of the time. went out with km's family on saturday as his mum wanted to watch movie. what's interesting was that, all of us actually watched the movie already but since his mum wanted to watch so we just accompanied her watch again. in order not to disappoint his mum and spoil the atmosphere, we actually kept quiet on the truth that we already watched it. hahaha! well, though i already know the whole plot, this time round, i focused on other details in the movie. things like the surrounding and stuff which i may not notice of when i watched it the first time. not so bad, i got to saw and realised some stuff during the second time watching it. quite fun. then, had dinner together, photos uploaded in facebook. forgot to take photos of the food we had this time, hence, no updates on food. hahaha! next, it will be the movie "up". i haven't get to watch it. many of my friends said it's nice. so will try to catch it before it is no longer screening.

soon, it will be the end of august.. a quarter left to the end of this year. don't know how things will be like..i really hope to get something out from it before i call it a year. youth doesn't stay with me always and age doesn't remain or deduct itself. let's all jiayou!!

Quite a few days didn't come in here...Just a quick update for the week.. earlier this week, met up with some friends whom i got to know from the previous event that i helped out with..we went back to the event company, gathered at ben&jerry's, shopped at PS & Cathay.. on thursday, it was my mum's birthday. too bad my brother wasn't in town so couldn't celebrate it together. met up with one of the threesome during the day time on that day since mum was also working..we went ikea @ alexandra, went lunch, had coffee @ starbucks - raffles city, chill out and updating each other..at night, i had a simple dinner with my mum as kind of a celebration for her. got her favourite chilli crab for her with some kuehs as i remembered that there were always be those kuehs together with red eggs around during anyone's birthday when we were young, so i want to bring up that kind of atmosphere again..although my brother wasn't around, he also bought mum a cake and flowers and had them delivered to her work place on that day. i bet she must be very surprised upon receiving them. since my bro already bought her a cake, i decided to buy a small one so that mum can blow candle and cut it on spot, just in case she left the big cake in office or it was already cut and ate at work place..despite that we didn't really have a grand celebration, i hope mum is happy that day.

After a long time, i have not spend time in making a good breakfast till today. this time even with new combination of food. not that i'm praising myself but it does taste nice and it's really filling and good enough to start off the day. actually, by the time i prepared it, i have it for brunch. hahaha! watched "where got ghost" this noon. it's really a "hormedy" as named by its director - jack neo. it's like want to be scary but also will make you laugh kind of movie. not too bad show though. but the experience at the theatre wasn't really good. there's many students in there. very noisy. furthermore, nowadays, kids are really...i don't know how to describe them especially guys. every word from their mouth are vulgarities. what so nice of saying those words. it doesn't at all show off any glamorous thing of them neither does that make them more appealing. it only shows that they are just not mature enough and don't know how to behave themselves. let me tell you, i bet, when they grow older and look back on how they were in the past, i will regret and even find that they were childish and stupid at that point of time. some may even regret. apart from that, there were also a bunch of kids, haiz.... spoilt the whole environment. it's actually a group of girls, they scream at every scene which were so-called scary. some not scary at all they also scream. not a single scene they will miss. can you believe it? i don't know what they scream at, maybe it's really scary to them but if they are so scare and can't take it, don't even go and watch it in the first place. they were just following the sound effects in the show. usually when there's a scary part about to come, there's always a sharp or sudden loud sound effect added in the show, so these girls will just scream when they hear that. quite stupid. other than that, the show was overall okie. not bad, can watch, quite funny at some parts and jack's movies also don't fail in bringing up some moral education.

My brunch..nice?

Another option of brunch, looks delicious right?

Since my mum returned to work, seems like i cook more too...this few days also will cook some stuff as and when. had fried rice that day and made an omelette rice for mum which she never tasted before..lucky it was still up to her taste..tat fried rice was only available at my house, don't think anywhere else sells such fried rice with so many different ingredients. if they do, think they will most probably make a losing business. hahaha! there's mini prawns, long beans, ham, eggs, crabmeat sticks and beanspouts. a lot of ingredients right, think i can sell a bowl for at least $4 outside.haha! my bro also cooked glutinous rice balls as he was saying that the ones my mum cooked were too big in size and not as nice. so this time he cooked smalled size ones and tried having it without any coloured sugar so seems quite plain but still ok in taste...as some of you may know, i have many many bears which were won from machines..recently, i had a new collection and it looks quite cute, its fur very soft...

Met up with one of the threesome earlier this noon. she just got back from hong kong and bought "lao po bing" for my mum as jokingly requested by her. but still, thank her for that. brought her to sembawang shopping centre since we both also don't know where to go and i also didn't feel like travelling too far today. ate lunch at "wan chai" hong kong cafe though she just came back from there but believe the food here is still of some difference from those authetics ones there. then chit chat for quite sometime, talked about everything we can think of and share, as usual. think the waitresses and waiters there must also be thinking how come this 2 ladies can sit there for so long and still don't want to leave. hahaha! think we were in that cafe for about 3 hours at least just for a lunch. see how good we are in "ha-la-ing" right. hahaha! threesome is always like that...something very special that i seen at the cafe is that they add a scope of vanilla ice cream on top of iced beverages like milk tea, tea, coffee and mixed coffee and milk. never seen this in any other similar cafes, it seems to resemble those beverages in western kind of cafes.innovative...

Didn't do anything much this few days..were just at home, watch tv, play computer, play games, etc..saw "shi shang wan jia" this morning and some other programs related to taiwan..make me feel so much like to go there...i don't mind if i have a chance to stay there for awhile,even if i'm alone although there's risk of unsafety and natural disasters..but i think it's a nice place to be at...frankly, over there, there's also more opportunities of realising my dream compared to here. just the tv stations alone, there are more than 70 channels there unlike here where there's only 2 (mandarin channels). competitions will be higher and tense here whereas over there, there's more chances since demand is higher.. haiz..haven't even been there yet till now..keeping seeing it on tv, how tasty is their food, how nice is their place and how interesting life can be over there. seriously, i think if i live there, i'm sure there will be lots of activities can be done..the place is big, sure lots of places to go..imagine weekends can take train and travel to another cities for a short trip, etc will be fun..i think even if giving me 1 or 2 months also won't be able to complete visiting all parts of the country there..I WANT TO GO TAIWAN!!! hahaha...

Never feel wrong to have the intention and plans of running a dessert shop for my mum. she's really a great chef who not only knows how to cook delicious dishes of varieties but also knows how to cook as well as attempt to make nice desserts. so far, i have tried numerous homemade desserts cooked by her and i'm daring enough to say that all of them can be of similar or even better standard than those selling outside. when i say desserts, i meant those hot ones as we don't have ice shaving machine at home so can't possibly be making cold desserts right. nevertheless, you can also put some ice into those hot desserts and they are as tasty too. salute to my mum. she can make all sort of delicious hot desserts..amazing and wonderful cooking skills. previously i mentioned about her cooking "dou suan", this few days even more varieties as illustrated below..hopefully one day i can really fulfill the promise of opening a dessert shop for her to run. =)

Assisted in a bridal theme photo shoot earlier this morning at changi beach. this is my first time helping out though i was asked once before this. during the shoot, at certain times, i somehow felt as though i was back at mediacorp being a production assistant. my job today was somewhat similar to that. helped model to make sure her dress is ok, her hair, bring her tissue and water when she needs as well as whatever that requires my help. apart from that,what i did for the first time today was that i helped to hold the light reflector. quite a hard time actually due to the wind which will sometimes blow the reflector away but it was fun,at least i learn how does the reflector works and how to use it. the models are all very nice. their gowns, hairdo and makeup all very pretty. make me envy man..hahaha! after a whole morning of shoot, quite tired after returning home, think probably it is because i didn't have sufficient sleep the night before. nevertheless, it is a wonderful experience. hope that my turn will be soon..hehe!

Seen quite a number of news about the typhoon in taiwan. poor thing...really.. lucky, we live in singapore where we are safe and don't really have any natural disaster. look at how their houses are flooded with water till the knees due to the rain, how some families' roof top being blown away, how people in some areas are trapped in their cities due to the road blocked by floods and no longer have any transport. i can't imagine if i'm there to experience it myself. really very bad condition. imagine everything in your house are wet, you also can't really lead a normal life as you have to worry about your house, the furnitures and whether the floods will be even higher. it is forecasted that the typhoon will last for another 2 or couple of days. think even after the typhoon leaves, it will also be a hard time for the people. have to clear and clean up the house, replace and repair whatever that are damaged, etc. think days can be hard. haiz..hope everything will be fine soon for them and the people can survive through this crisis. today is "xiao gui's" autograph sessions for his newly released EP, guess with the typhoon, don't think he can do much. hope everybody there will be fine and safe.

Full moon today though it is not lunar 15th..not sure why.. but only 1 star closest to the moon can be seen.. didn't expect that i will blog today as i thought i won't have chance to do so...

heard before a saying of "a relationship should not be too long before it reaches another stage"? that's why sometimes we see people get married soon after they date. i don't know whether this saying is true. however, there are cases of couples separating even after many many years of relationship. at times, when we heard that a couple is getting married very soon after they dated for not long, it brings to wonder of whether the marriage will last. on the hand, there are also couples who went through long term courtship and got married but eventually separated soon after that. so which is which? it's hard to say...

honestly, i was a little dishearted earlier. last time, we used to share things. now, it seems like i was only inform upon asking. through this period of time, i do feel guilty at times for not having sufficient time to spend outside and having to stay at home. thinking through again, i don't think i should anymore. all this while, in my mind is to do whatever i can when i have time and being able to. but it don't seems to be the same on the other side. it is perhaps true that i have the entire week for everybody whereas the other side has only 2 days for everyone. so maybe i shouldn't compare in this way. think from now on, i should simply no longer see things as important as i did and just let things goes as it wanted to and as how people see it. think i should readjust my priorities too since my priorities don't seems to be the same as people's priorities. stubbornly insist on it will only hurt and upset myself. what for, right? i don't wish to say "i'm tired" one day....

Oh ya..as usual, my daily routine, watched "yu bai" earlier. learnt that luo zhi xiang will be away from hosting for about one month due to his involvement in acting a drama series. hmm..sad, meaning that for the next one month, won't be able to watch him on "yu bai". not sure if this will affect my desire to catch it daily, but guess i will most probably be still watching it to keep in touch with what's happening in the entertainment industry. and xiao gui will still be hosting so hope there will still be "xiao dian" and fun stuff to keep me watching it...will miss luo zhi xiang in "yu bai"..nevertheless, it also means that he will soon have another drama series that i will certainly watch..kekeke! =)



Ate japanese lunch buffet at Akira with mum this noon. Cost us about $20++ per person with mum' using UOB card's promotion. this is my second time eating there. Although there isn't as much variety as compared to other jap restaurant, i would say, for the quality of food and price, it's considered reasonable to dine there. everything is made to order and freshly made upon ordering them. was very full after the meal though both of us didn't really ate a lot compared to the first time there with my bro. Thanks to my bro for a hp with great camera function that permits me to nice photos, after adjusting the setting, the photos look so real, the food may tempt you...hehehe!

See how fresh the salmon were...umm..

As promised to my bro, i will show the photos of what mum cooked today. she attempted to cook "dou suan" dessert for the first time. she said she learned from those dessert stores' people and also flipped through a few recipe books. well, although the appearance of it doesn't really look exactly like how it is selling outside at dessert stores, the taste of it is of similar quality of those. furthermore, this is only the first time that she tried to cook. given a few more times, i believe she will cook it even better than those selling outside. i tasted it, honestly speaking, really not bad. too bad that my bro couldn't try it himself. therefore, can only take a few snap and show him. hahaha! anyway, my mum is rather a good cook. she can cook many dishes and it all taste fantastic. probably it's because i eat them since young so maybe i'm already used to her cooking. but who don't like their mum's cook right? i believe most people out there still prefers home cooked food. so am i.

Recently, i keep lost count of the date and day...keep thinking that it's one day forward, meaning for example, it's saturday, i thought it's sunday.somehow i think it is because of the environment that causes the illusion.hahaha!

now that i'm free, i start to think of what am i supposed to do in the days to come. looking at the calendar, seems like the year is near an end, i'm still here, don't know what i'm doing and what's for future. sometimes, when i look upon the sky, i think, what have i contributed? what have i done? what else do i need to do? i'm totally lost man...people always say determination drives the path..does it means that i will get achieve what i want so long as i'm determined? but it doesn't seems to be that way at all...thinking about it, i do sometimes, regret on why don't i start early. looking at the days i have left with my age, time is tight and path is not at all easy and near. sad... i don't want to just work like any other people till old. i want to be what i want to be.. i don't want to work for the sake of earning an income and establish a family. my life is more colourful and exciting than this, isn't it? i don't want my life to be just like an ordinary people's life where they work, get married, have children, take care of children till old... my life should be more than this. i want it to be my way and not following destiny. who can hear me??? who can understand??? who can tell me what can i do??? when will i really get to see the rainbow in my life?? i'm totally lost...i know what i want, i'm sure of what i want to be, i'm determine in doing it no matter how much i have to give in but how and when?? i don't know myself...i begin to doubt myself..

Sometimes, i really don't like smokers..they will spoil my day at times. Especially in the morning, while i'm on my way to take train, some people will light one up on the way too. it's early in the morning where the air should be the freshest, nice and good for body but with smokers walking infront of you, the air no longer as fresh and nice as it should be. neither is that good for body anymore. due to that, i will always try to walk as fast as i can to overtake to regain my fresh air or i just hold my breath through they are far apart from me. at home, it's the same thing. though mum smokes in the kitchen, due to the wind direction, no matter where i am in the house, i will still get to inhale some of the smoke. i guess, by now, i'm already a highly positive passive smoker. i tried to avoid that, at times, i will just switch on the fan hoping that it will help in blowing the smoke away, although i don't really know if that helps.

i don't like the times where i'm washing dishes or brushing my teeth in the kitchen and she's smoking, no matter how i avoid, i will still have to inhale the smoke..now, i really wonder if i'm already a passive smoker and if my body is affected by it. Argh!! just hate it... =(
