Exam Fever

About a week ago, Julia, Ern, Eka, Leconte and I went to Ikea to have meatballs (YUMMMM) for lunch and had group study at Starbucks/Borders.

A Sunday Afternoon

Had lunch last Sunday, after an awesome church service, with pretty Julia whom I sayang very much. I’ll be very sad when she leaves the country next June to pursue her studies. Until today, I still am amazed at how close we’ve become after all our teen drama llama. :)

Dress – My mum made the dress in the 80s!
Bag – Times Square
Shoes – Cats Whiskers

I found this super awesome dress my mum made when she was in her twenties. Super vintage and I love it! I asked her to teach me how to sew, so that I can make a few more of this dress, but she said she can’t remember. Ah wells, when I have the time, I’ll get my grandma to teach me. :)

Floral Sweetheart

Dress – Topshop London (Vintage)
Belt – DIY
Bag – Bonia
Sweater – Classic Profile

The dress belongs to my mum. If I’m not wrong, she bought it way back in the day when she was holidaying with my Dad in the UK. My mum always had a great sense of style. I wish she didn’t give away 3/4 of her old clothes.

Shine Your Light – Part I

I was given the ultimate priviledge to be apart of the Lightbulb Production Team to perform for The AYA Awards 2009 at Kuala Lumpur Performing Arts Center.

We started practices only three weeks before the event, and while it was crazy sacrificing most of our nights practicing till one ish two in the morning, brainstorming for ideas and moves, I have to say it was an incredibly fun and exciting journey for me.

I got to know the rest of the dancers a lot of better, and they are one of the most humble and talented team I have ever worked with. I felt very comfortable and at home during practices, and I’m glad I was given the opportunity to dance with each and everyone of them.

Now, picture talk.

A Star Studded Evening

HELP’s ADP and Bachelor of Communication annual ball was held last Friday night at Impiana KLCC Hotel and Spa. The ball was themed Strass Et Paillettes – all things (events) glitz and glamour.

I made my way to Julia’s at one o’clock in the afternoon to get ready. We rushed to Mid Valley to do some last minute shopping – bobby pins! Got back to her place, washed up, did our hair and make up, put on our dresses and VOILA! We were ready to hit the red carpet!

We left the house at around six in the evening. We arrived at the hotel shortly and were greeted by the lovely receptionists – Abby, Andy and Grace. Everyone looked incredibly stunning.

Our table was strategically located at the center, right behind the VIP’s table. We chose the table, and I’m glad we did. Towards the end of the ball, they opened up the dance floor, and we danced for a bit before heading up to the room Riz booked for the night to change into our after-party dresses!

Speaking of dresses, a few weeks before the ball, I went dress hunting with Grace and Sandra, and I tried on a long-sleeve short bodycon dress in MNG and fell head over heels in love with the dress, but decided against buying it. I went home, but couldn’t get my mind to stop thinking about it. So, three days before the ball, I decided to buy the dress for the after-party (a very good reason)!

So, we changed and headed to Space for our after-party! I had a fabulous time dancing and grooving to the music! After a few hours, I began feeling unwell, so I left the place, away from the loud music to rest. The rest came out after a while, and we headed to a mamak stall to eat.

At about five something in the morning, we decided to call it a night and returned to the hotel. About eleven or twelve of us cramped in a room, and most of us fell asleep at dawn.

All These Thoughts Locked Inside

Good evening, world.

So, I attended the All-American Rejects concert and even though I’m not crazy over them like how Julia and Debbie are and I don’t know many of their old school songs, I still had an incredibly good time.

I love attending concerts, because I can groove to the music, jump around and scream my lungs out without having other people think I’m a serious nut case. Very liberating.

Now, picture talk.

Stress The Pilot

So, Friday has come and gone.
The night was mighty awesome!

AYA Awards is happening in a few hours’ time.
Incredibly excited, but very tired as well.
Last few days – no proper sleep.

Will update soon! :)
