Presenting my new clutch!!!!



*dance* I was behaving liked a little girl unwrapping my present :P

This precious miu miu clutch cost me S$384 inclusive of shipping. I have no idea how much our local miu miu are selling. Mine is the medium version. Measure: Width:9.5" Height:6.5" Never regret buying it!! Although I thought that I've ordered the large version... But its okay cos the medium size is PERFECT!!! Not too big or small, can definitely fit my bulky wallet, HP & camera :) The one that I ordered is this www.net-a-porter.com/product/160322 but I wanted this www.net-a-porter.com/product/95569 Take note of the different product codes & prices. Its currently OOS but you can contact their fashion advisors & they'll let you know & reserved for you once they restocked. Thats what I did & I received their email about restocking less than 2 days later! I found comparison of the clutches at forum.purseblog.com/

Movie!!

Went to pay respect to Felix's late mum & grandfather at Mount Vernon yesterday morning. Although we reached at around 10:15am, theres lots of vehicles waiting in line & we have to wait for 20 mins to get in, another 10 mins to find parking lots. Should be because of the Tomb Sweeping day... After that, we went to Bishan for lunch & bought movie tickets at J8 to watch "Hop" with Keven & Weiling.







The movie is only so-so. The story are a bit lame... Didnt know that Russell Brand is the voice of E.B.!! Hes so cute!!! The part where he pretend to be a plushie really made me LOL!! & the dancing chick who saved the day cos he cant resist the music & keep on twitching his butt!! Oh... & how can we forget about James Marsden aka Cyclops *winks*









& my FIL bought a DVD for the kids.



Went to my in-laws place for dinner. A super late dinner *sinful* :(

Found a colored lens spree in facebook this morning. Still deciding which colors/range to get!!











*faintz* Luckily still have until Sat to consider....

Song of the moment

Linkin Park - Somewhere I Belong


(When this began)
I had nothing to say
And I get lost in the nothingness inside of me
(I was confused)
And I let it all out to find
That I'm not the only person with these things in mind

(Inside of me)
But all that they can see the words revealed
Is the only real thing that I've got left to feel
(Nothing to lose)
Just stuck, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own

I wanna heal, I wanna feel
What I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain
I've felt so long
(Erase all the pain till it's gone)

I wanna heal, I wanna feel
Like I'm close to something real
I wanna find something I've wanted all along
Somewhere I belong

And I've got nothing to say
I can't believe I didn't fall right down on my face
(I was confused)
Looking everywhere only to find
That it's not the way I had imagined it all in my mind

(So what am I)
What do I have but negativity
Cause I can't justify way everyone is looking at me
(Nothing to lose)
Nothing to gain, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own

I wanna heal, I wanna feel
What I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain
I've felt so long
(Erase all the pain till it's gone)

I wanna heal, I wanna feel
Like I'm close to something real
I wanna find something I've wanted all along
Somewhere I belong

I will never know
Myself until I do this on my own
And I will never feel
Anything else until my wounds are healed

I will never be
Anything till I break away from me
I will break away
I'll find myself today

I wanna heal, I wanna feel
What I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain
I've felt so long
(Erase all the pain till it's gone)

I wanna heal, I wanna feel
Like I'm close to something real
I wanna find something I?ve wanted all along
Somewhere I belong

I wanna heal, I wanna feel
Like I am somewhere I belong
I wanna heal, I wanna feel
Like I am somewhere I belong
Somewhere I belong

Look what I just cart out!!

Celebrating Christine Birthday

Sat evening met up Christine & Eileen to have dinner at Orchard Central's Ootoya.



Their food are damn yummy!!! Reasonable prices too. Glad that both of them enjoy it :) Love their interior design! Very japanese & zen. They have sakura wallpaper at the other side of their restaurant. Although their kitchen are open concept, its doesnt smell any greasy/smokes. Attentive waitress/waiter too :) They also serve cold/hot green tea for free.

Heres what we ordered...



IMO, no point ordering additional Yakko because it comes with every set meal, unless you are a big fans of toufu :) I had their Sumitoridon. Its charcoal grilled chicken with sweet sauce. Super yummy!!! Must try!!! It doesnt taste of charcoal when eating but will taste it when I drink their iced green tea.

We bought a cake from Bakerzin.





Wanted to watch movie but they only left with front rows so we met Ruoxuan at Takashimaya instead.

Spot Aston Martin DBS outside Mandarin Gallery when walking over to Takashimaya!! Sleek!!!



& we went to try Sour Sally yogurt. Its damn good!!! Minus the milky taste & it taste so smooth!!! Ordered their Original Flavor to try :)





We were lucky to have seats cos of their VERY limited tables. Theres only 2 tables inside -_-|||

Outside Wisma....



Earth Hour!! Wisma switched off their main building power & its so romantic to eat at Food Republic!! Total darkness LOL

Went to one of Wheelock's cafe to chill out *its actually accompany to wait for Felix to fetch me. So bloody touched!!*. Ordered hot chocolate to share with Xuan. Too sweet!!!





They were messing around when I tell them to take photos of me & Eileen. So in the end... No photos of us. But I had photos of Xuan & Christine!! LOL

Happy birthday my dear Ms C!!! I know you love our presents to you!!! Too bad Cara & Lynn cant join us. Other days babes!

A little something from Kinokuniya.



*sign* Eileen knows my biggest weak spot liao!!!! SOD totally cannot make it. This... I admit. How I wish they have some in-build GPS in my brain.

Glee Season 2 - Furt

All - Marry You

眼镜, 眼镜.... 找朋友 :(

& now, Brandon's latest BFF is....



Not the puppy that hes hugging... Its the black frame on his face!! Im so sad :( The only console is he doesnt require to wear it everytime. Only when necessary. My heart shuttered into million pieces whenever I saw him wearing it. If anyone dare to laugh at Brandon for wearing specs, I swear that I dont give a damn who you are & I'll give you a piece of my mind!! So not looking forward to his school reopen next week. Confirm have parents/teachers/classmates asking why he wear specs. FML

Something to distract me...



*blush* Hopefully can finish all within 2 weeks.

I want this!!

Stila Make Me Blush


Its so cheap in USA!! Only USD14!! Gonna ask Weiling to help me get it from New York!! Hopefully they still have stock. Speaking of CP, I havent email Clarissa my lists to buy from Taiwan :X Compass Point's Metro havent launch Lunasol's Spring collection yet. The SA said that they'll only come in 2 weeks later. Im thinking of getting this.

#1 Warm Ocean


or

#4 Smoky Ocean


Come on, come on... When is the metro 20% when I need them?? But, might skip this collection cos theres blue eyeshadow in all their palettes!! I HATE blue eyeshadows!

BTW, their upcoming summer collection look good too.
