brunch at Au Chocolat, Marina Bay Sands

Overall: Truffle Fries = yum. Seriously, fries is already a 10 on the YUM scale. Truffles fries tipped that scale. HMMMMMMMMMMM.
Eggs Florentine - Nothing to shout about. Norma still rocks my socks.
Tiramisu - Once again super overpriced ($14), great for ppl who don't like the strong alcohol taste. But then if you are eating tiramisu with no alcoholic taste, my as well go for a chocolate cake.
Company - Always fabulous w gf!

GOSH I WANT SOME FRIES NAAAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

Sweat it all out

I would term it "insanely hot wtf im ready to punch ppl followed by a graceful flying kick to the stomach". I am talking abt the weather btw. Even with my incredibly high tolerance for heat (im normally freezing my ass off in office while everyone prances ard in sleeveless dreases), the weather is becoming unbearable even for me. I am alr sweating when i walk to my bus stop in e morn before work which is only a mere three mins walk away. Can u imagine the guys in their shirt and pants? Probably a waterfall running down their backs. Eww.

The insane weather isnt just brutally hot but super erratic as well, with sudden heavy thunderstorms ( those whr u cant even see the buildings across from e window kind), and then it stops and goes back to punch ppl worthy heat. Luckily, it didnt rain for e JP Morgan run. I joined only cuz it is free (y in e world will i pay 60 bucks to run 5.6km?!?!?) and thr were tons of ppl.

I get that this isnt a marathon but still thr is still prize money involved and competitive teams taking part. So why in e world are you, and by you, i meant ppl who shamelessly squeeze their way to e front, like may be 3 ppl behind the starting line and then yr take-off speed is like a leisure jog in e park? Worse are those that start to walk. Hello if u want to walk you can just stand behind! Tt one min extra ahead isnt gg to boost yr shitty timing tt much! If this is a real marathon you would probably be stomped over by serious runners (accidentally and intentionally). So my timing isnt fab and i blame it partially on these road hogging slow poke ppl which i had to maneoveur ninja-style which means making lightning fast leaps when i see a tiny space opening up. Basically u can spot me (no wait im suppose to be too fast for e naked eye) in tt hideous company designed tee leaping left and right which means extra unnecssary energy spent. All YR FAULT U ROAD HOGGERS. And the weather as well, which made me want to puke at one point.

The only redeeming point is the guys. The cute ones. Seems that our cries of anguish on the lack of cute guys over many girly sessions w the gfs have been heard. The clouds parted and the golden stream of light shone down. And a holy deep voice said "there, all the cute guys for yr eyes to feast open". And yeah the conclusion is they are definitely not in the accounting firms. Insert sad face.

To end off this ranty post, the road to nun-hood is to join my firm. :( off to fab brunch w my lovely gf!

boston marathon bombing

http://edition.cnn.com/2013/04/15/us/boston-marathon-explosions/index.html

:(

Just read the article and feeling really sad for the victims and whatsapping abt it in the grp chat and the response from the dearest perpetually clueless friend was:-

"so don't join marathon"

-_-|||

WHAT KIND OF CONCLUSION IS THIS!

and then, another msg popped up

"show me ur eyelash extension when u do"

-_-|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||


yeaps girls grp chat really revolve around superficial stuff.

Although I do feel for the innocent victims, there are probably more heinous crimes being committed in other parts of the world that don't get the same amount of coverage and hoohaa. Not that such news should be downplayed but he agenda behind the amount of coverage that certain news get is definitely something to think about.

And to end off on the most random note, during a short break at a dept discussion, was chatting with one of the partners and he was talking about his previous job at another big4 firm. Found out that he got seconded to NYC for 2 years. ENVY IS ME. I really think that one of the best way to retain talent is to enhance mobility and provide opportunities for its people to grow.

Oh and the phone beeped and dearest friend just replied with a rather delayed response:-

"omg the bombing really jialat"

y u so cute huh!

cant take my eyes off you

i would like to confess that i have an unhealthy obsession. I love stalking pretty / chic / fashionable girls online. Especially asian girls. 

And i just realised the title of my post is a bit creepy. Like those pervy DOM hiding behind the computer screen in a dark room leering at scantily clad "models". 

And my latest obsession is this fashion blogger:

omg how does she manage to carry off this outfit. I think the tights are uber cool.

I seriously cannot find one outfit that I don't like. She is totally working every single outfit that she post.  But then again, no one will post a pic that the person looks crappy in. And she is so pretty!!! I love the way she does her eye makeup, not over-the-top, very chic. 

GOSH I LIKE HER FACE SO MUCH *fan girl mode full on*

I gotta stop here and go back to stalking her  . bye!

short hair 2013

It began with my frustration with the uber messy hair. And ooh-ing and ahh-ing over celebs with short hair and looking effortlessly chic. one thing led to another and i found myself sitting at the hair salon and showing a pic of a female celeb to my hair stylist and saying "GIMMEH HER HAIR". And gave me her hair he did. It is the shortest I ever cut, so short that I can't even tie it. Which means i can probably delude myself into thinking that I am filming a shampoo advert flinging my shiny hair side to side while i jog effortlessly at ECP / spinning at the gym (in reality I will probably look really crazy with sweaty hair plastered across my fatty face).

I was a little apprehensive going back to my previous stylist because I felt that he no longer listened to what I want and just barged on with what he thinks is nice. So when he started snipping, I was asking questions after questions like "are u gg to layer here to give more volume?" "her fringe part is quite thick right" blah blah blah. Of course mine wasn't an exact replica of hers considering my face is approx 50 times the size of hers. It had to be modified to suit my face shape (i.e. huge). I was extremely happy with the result. HIS MAGICK IS BACK *throws confetti*

I seldom post self shots because I am no longer that 17 yr old with the skin of a rhino where the word "shameless" never existed in my youthful dictionary.  A haircut will result in probably 5 bajillion self shots and having it plastered all over the social media platform, ie. friendster (gosh i miss friendster and those lameass testimonials that we used to write). Those days are sadly.. gone. I weep internally for the lost youth but at least when i flip the dictionary to S, i see SHAMELESS printed in bold across. Which is why, there is only one pic below. Okay before you point an accusing finger and go "that is TWO pictures OKAY", it is actually one because it is a multishot. Urms, wow lame argument. Fine 2 pics below. (ok fine i took like 5 in my phone. OLD HABITS DIE HARD OKAY)

 I really think there is no turning back after this. Short hair seems to be the express pass to chicness. And my brows. I deviate but my brows is so awesome now. No longer lizard girl when i wake in the morning. WHY DID I WAIT TILL NOW TO DO IT. I really don't understand how could the previous ex-es look into my eyes lovingly without having an image of a lizard flashing past. How could my friends look at me and not want to feed my flies *stares accusingly at my gfs*

And next i am gg to do eyelash extensions! Excited abt that as well. Hope that it will be nice (i guess with my sparse and stumpy lashes, anything will be nice???) Wow is this makeover 2013 or something?!!?!?
