Charity Fashion Show

Kate offered me to help out with a charity fashion show.. I’m still horrible with my stage walks though.. Something about me.. I just couldn’t do my cat walks… I’m rigid, and the harder I try, the worse I get… No rhythm.. Its like I have two left feet…

Our make up artist for the show…. He got everyone in the show good looking… I like the pink velcro he used to hold our hair away from our face while he did the make up… :D

The lady in the photo on the right did my hair.. :)

I totally adore the black dress I’m wearing in this photo from Skye Boutique in Orchard central… Only issue was the price tag.. :S

24th Nov 2009: A Little Humour on Sunday Times

PB240609   
I walked in to my room and I noticed the pee on the newspaper by Mango outside my room.. On closer look.. I saw something really funny on the newspaper.. Of course none of these people said these things.. But it was funny…

17 Nov 2009: Jasmine Mont Blanc

 PB170605
Following one of the Japanese Websites, I tried to make a Jasmine Mont Blanc..

PB170603   PB170606PB170602 PB170607 PB170608
The whole thing was very difficult… So I won’t write the recipe.. The Jasmine mont blanc cream was very tough because it melts very easily… But the best part was the lemon curd in below the d’amandes sponge in the tard.. It was lemony and fresh… Delish… :)

Rat Invasion

PB170601
The renovation from the neighbours seems to have destroyed the homes of the rats living there… And one of these “ratatouille” seemed to have escaped into my kitchen!!! EEEEEEKKKSS!!!! Grandma caught the rat with a rat cage trap… And look at this creepy thingy!!!! :S

The Prata Place

Ron and I finally met up after some time.. Time has sure passed since we learnt Thai together… I’m glad to hear that SIM has accepted him!
PB150600
We met up at Prata place.. I think Ron had Thosai.. But Prata place serves really good prata because the prata is made fresh at the point of your order… The Jalan Besar pratas has lost its flair because the pratas are served cold and soggy.. god knows what time they made those pratas!
PB150596  PB150598 PB150599 
I love the paper prata at the Prata House.. Of course they serve a whole of other kinds of pratas, but the paper pratas and the kosongs are my favourite to eat with sugar… The flaky and crispy pratas makes me feel like I’m eating filo pastry that is lighter and filled with more flavour… :)
Best part? It opens from 7am to 12 midnight!!
A slight problem.. You better bring tissues if you are a clean freak and watch ur steps when you are walking in the restaurant.. The whole prata restaurant is oily on the tables and the floor.. You may even slip! Be careful about that!

Flavor of Life

This song has left a deep impression in me. Utada Hikaru’s song often has a growing effect on me. Its really meaningful if you really watched the show.

When you say thank you to me,
for some reason it hurts,
Like a magic spell that doesn’t
get undone even after the good bye.
a hint of bitterness.
The flavor of life

Stuck midpoint between friends and lovers,
like an un-riped fruit dreaming about the day of harvest
because of being unable to just move one more step forward
what’s causing this frustration baby

When you say thank you to me,
for some reason it hurts,
Like a magic spell that doesn’t
get undone even after the good bye.
a hint of bitterness
The flavor of life

Sweet talk and tasteless conversations.
it sparks no interest in me
even when things do not go the way you want
it doesnt mean you’ve thrown your life away

When asked ‘ whats wrong?’
I answer ‘its nothing’
The smile that disappears after goodbye
It’s unlike me

The more i wish to believe in you,
For some reason it hurts even more
‘i like you a lot’ instead of ‘i love you’ sounds more like you
the flavor of life

the period when you suddenly remember the scent of someone you had almost forgotten
I want to be able to openly and honestly cherish the white purity of the falling snow more

A future tender and warmer than a diamond
i want to grasp it, in this limited time we have, i want to spend it with you

when you say thank you to me,
for some reason it hurts,
Like a magic spell that doesnt
get undone even after the good bye.
a hint of bitterness
The flavor of life
