Oriental

I'm supposed to be packing for my flight now which is due in a few hours but look at me, I'm blogging!! *pauses* I just lied to my mum saying that I'm packing. :twisted: Hello again!! Here's another post as promised days ago to keep you entertained!! :mrgreen: This kimono wrap was definitely one of the times where I buy a certain thing without giving a thought. In another words, an impulsive purchase. WHATTTTTTTT? It's on 50% sale! But I didn't regret a single bit because I've worn it so many times as it's light enough and keeps me warm enough from those cold winter breeze. I particularly like the prints on the kimono wrap because it's has a strong oriental influence so I thought of playing around with my outfit to that theme. What do you think of it? [...]

Being Vain in Uni

I did mention that we brought many set of clothes but there wasn't enough time to change so in the end, we just changed once HAHAHHAHA!! But this definitely gives us an excuse to have another day like this doesn't it? :roll: Here comes the long awaited post! It sure is a picture heavy post because I'm narcissistic like that. I couldn't really just pick a limited few! And yess, I've worn the dress which was supposedly meant for my 21st Birthday but I just couldn't wait to slip into it! It still is my 21st Birthday Dress!! :evil: Joanne asked me 'Don't we look like we're a bunch of young designers?' and when I took a closer look at this particular picture, I sure think we do! These were the only a few pictures taken in the studio because we were running [...]

Behind the scenes : Being in a studio for the first time

Now that I'm done with all my papers, I can't even sleep even when it's already 1am!!! < HAHAHHA wtf I wrote this even before I took my first paper BECAUSE bear in mind this was drafted since days ago!! As I'm taking my precious break now, I'm going to tell you my excitement when Joanne and Amelie told me that they've booked a studio in my uni for their photography assignment! Immediately I knew I had to go and be a busy body even though there was a test that week!! (screw test, this one is more important!! :razz:) It was definitely my first time being in this studio and I still clearly remember that I was squealing with excitement inside because we were planning the number of outfits to bring and change so that we could take lots and lots of outfit pictures!! [...]

Just the beginning

For two semesters, I've been looking forward to my Fashion Design class so eagerly. I still remembered the first day I stepped into the class during this semester, fearing that I might look like a Commerce student. You know, the Commerce face LOL but everybody was friendly and I managed to blend right in immediately! Anyways, as I've said earlier that I will show you guys, these are the two dresses that I put my hands on to sew for my final assessment! I was proud for awhile because I thought 'hey, this is just my second time and I managed to sew a dress!'. But after the presentation today, I realised that I hadn't pushed or challenged myself hard enough to explore a better design. Oh wells, better not dwell myself in this! Let's get on with my dresses!! For this fir[...]

Lying about Purchases

DON'T JUDGE ME BY THE TITLE!! :razz: I've got so many backdated posts to blog on so I'm doing my best to draft a few posts today so you will know what's been keeping me busy for the last few months! :smile: Anddddd I was supposed to blog during my Easter break but I got so held up by my assignments, I couldn't even have time to go out!!! YES I was so depressing, I stayed at home for 4 days straight so that I could force myself to finish up my work! This is the first dress I've ever ever sewn in my life! Thoughts? For your information, it couldn't fit anyone/NOT EVEN A MANNEQUIN because as I was sewing, it just gets smaller and smaller HHHAHA!! And that's two pages of my Research Portfolio!! :razz: Thank God, the days are passing by so fast that I have a day or t[...]

First 21

FUHHHHH I managed to unload everything off my luggage this afternoon after 3 weeks of constant procastination! I bet you're going to hate me because the whole main reason I cleaned up my room today was that I'm so desperate to find my $25 gift card so I could buy my long awaited body chain!!!!! :twisted: :twisted: AND AFTER HOURS AND HOURS OF CLEANING *so proud!* I CAN'T FIND MY GIFT CARD ANYWHERE AT ALL!! I even bend down, search under the bed etc to find for it! GAHHH!!! :evil: Anyways!!! After just turning 20 a few months back, it never occurred to me that my friends will be celebrating their 21st birthday so soon because in my head, I JUST TURNED 20! Attending the very first 21st birthday party for the year gives me the boom boom boom feeling because I'm just so excited [...]

Big Yellow Sunflowers

Helloo!!!! BIG NEWS BIG NEWS! So I'm having an identity crisis right now. I was stalking my facebook homepage and someone was talking about the all new zodiac signs. I googled! Lo and behold, LOOK AT THIS!! I'M NOW A LIBRA WTFF!! :evil: :evil: :evil: I probably had screwed up my biological clock a little because I'm still not asleep yet even though I have work tomorrow! But all is well because this way, I could spend time writing bits and pieces before my memory slips right off me! :evil: I was discussing with my friends on how ironic our parents are sometimes. When you're just a teenager, parents just hate the thought of throwing a party at home for your birthdays. Then there is a period where you just study abroad, they'll find any nitty gritty reason to throw[...]

Harajuku Girls

Boy oh boy, my trip sure sounded like I was in Japan for ages but towards our second last day of the whole Japan trip, the day was basically filled with shopping shopping and a great length of distance on walking! So much so that by the end of my trip, the only two pairs of flats that I've brought over died on me!! :evil: :evil: That's just merely our first entrance to pushy sweaty war! Swear to God that I was walking like a penguin because that just describes the amount of space I could move with my feet as soon as I entered Harajuku! It was no doubt an eye opening experience though because I've got a chance to see so many weird different people!! :roll: However, I do admire the amount of courage they had to express themselves and stand out from the crow[...]

Japan Trip : Sue me, I cry over food

Finals is about to start and 2 days time and I guess that explains my not-so-often blog posts lately. But then again, here I am spending my time to jot down a few words on my Japan posts because I'm so sick of studying already! I've basically slacked the whole day so I thought this would be the cue for me to blog. :grin: Waking up in the morning to a view like that is just breathtaking. I stared down the window for a good half an hour trying to count the number of vehicles passing by in the size of an ant and occasionally spotting a really long bullet train passing by the tracks just right beneath our hotel. Breakfasts filled with buttery crisp croissant, waffles, boiled sausages and DID I MENTION WEDGES at 7am every morning is definitely a sin. Oh yes it is but[...]
