usual mid-week ramblings

Mom: "I like your specs. Very nice."
She continues rambling on about how nice my specs are for the next 5 minutes. (She should get a job in advertising).
I just stare at her because she went with me to pick out the specs. Machiam like she never see them before.
Mom: "Don't worry, I'm not lesbian".

Been busy studying so I only have a few random photos because most of the time I, 1) did not wash my hair, 2) didn't wash my hair (second day), 3) didn't go anywhere, 4) all of the above.




Giant grey batwing top from some Korean spree. And shorts were cut from jeans (but I sewed the bottom!) and have frayed ends from wear and tear.


Pink hole-y top from Mango.


When I'm bored I like to poke my naval stud through the holes (it fits).

Did a job the other day at St Regis Hotel, where I was hired to usher VIPs for Today's (newspaper) 10th anniversary. I remember the message I got which said : "You will be ushering VIPs. One of them is Goh Chok Tong" and I just went like HAHAHAHA.

So anyway it was a really interesting experience because the security checks were crazy! There was a pre-bomb sweep with sniffer dogs and all, as well as metal detectors?! And everyone had to show their IC/passport. For this reason I thought it was better that I didn't tweet about it. I mean I highly doubt like the Al Qaeda follows my Twitter but lots of people are pretty cautious about this kind of stuff...

So anyway SM Goh gave a speech about the Today newspaper, which you can read about here. There's a full transcript somewhere but his speech was rather long. My actual task just involved about 5 minutes of actual work (the distance from the VIP table to the stage isn't that large) and freezing my ass off the rest of the time and trying to talk to the other girl (from Poland), whose English was not very good.


This is Monika! She's one year younger than me and she has a really nice body I swear. Anyway she was also awesome because she managed to get us served with every single dish the guests were eating!

Like the waiters were just walking past with platters of food and she stopped one and asked for a plate each. And after that the waiters would just come bring us whatever the guests were eating, namely fois gras, fish, mushroom soup etc...
But anyway surprisingly the food wasn't very good.

I didn't bring my camera up while we were sitting around waiting backstage so I didn't get more photos. SM Goh is super tall though. He's way taller than me even when I'm in heels, but he looks quite jaded. Most of Singapore's ministers look like that to me. They never look like they're thinking of anything amusing (you can totally be responsible for serious stuff and still be thinking of amusing things).


Actually I think Monika is in flats here while I'm with heels and she's still around my height.


I remember this dress being from Agneselle, I got it free from being in the NUS pageant haha.

At the NUS Library at 2am:

Top from The Closet Ville!


Sometimes if you're lucky you can get one of the discussion rooms all to yourself! However the other students in other rooms all seems to ignore the big signs on the walls saying: THESE ROOMS ARE NOT SOUNDPROOF -_-


Do you know how awkward it is to be taking photos of yourself (also know as camwhoring, but I prefer my description) in a library full of students?
But anyway majority are too engrossed in re-reading for the 10th time their notes in case they missed out on something. And if they happen to look up for a breather, they'll probably just laugh and think: No wonder we always pwnz these locals at exams!

And omg you can see my hair roots already haha.


Belt from Brick Lane in London (I actually think 10 Pounds for a belt is kind of overpriced; but the medallion thingy was interesting). Pink lace bangle from random shop in Paris and black bangle is one of a set from F21 I think.


Random camwhoring with my Photobooth, because with such low resolution it's able to make me look reasonably alright with minimal makeup at 2am! The shitty 2 megapixel camera also makes my hair look nicer haha.

Anyway as aforementioned, my black top is kindly sponsored by The Closet Ville! To thank their fans for the support they've been giving them, The Closet Ville will be launching a contest titled: "What I Want In My Closet". 7 lucky winners will win an item of their choice from the website (: For more details, visit TheClosetVille.com/WIWIMC!

I've an exam tomorrow! It will be my 3rd paper, with my 4th (and last) one on the 29th of November! Most students take 5 modules and hence have 5 exams, but one of my 5 modules is Chinese and most languages don't have a final exam - instead they have lots of quizzes (three) and tests (two), as well as an oral exam, project+presentation as well as assignments. So... I only have 4 papers.
Alaric is taking 2 language modules - Chinese and French - so he only has 3 exams!

Mwuah!
