My Ukulele

Sorry that I’ve been gone for the last few days! I hope you guys liked the previous entry about my skincare regime. For today, I’m super excited because I am going to introduce a very new soulmate of mine. It’s a SHE and she has an hourglass figure. She has a nice brown complexion and has a long slender neck. She originates from Hawaii and her name is Wah Pen Pen! HAHAHAHA. I know I know. You’re probably scratching your head now because you don’t know what on earth I’m rattling on and on about. To spare you the misery, here is story about how I met my soulmate! This is where I got my soulmate from. OK LAH! Wah Pen Pen is a Ukulele. I have always been intrigued about the sounds of an Ukulele after watching videos by Jake Shimabukuro on Youtube. And of course, the Ukulele is incredibly cute too! I name my new toy “Wah Pen Pen” because it supposedly sounds Hawaiian to me. HAHAHAHA. There’s a little private joke between …

Skincare & I

I received a couple requests in comments and through the chat box for me to do up an entry about my skincare regime. So here it is, me and many horrible [never seen before] pictures of me with horrible skin. I think I have had a long battle with pimples, pimple scars and dull looking skin. With that, I would like to say that I am really not someone born with fabulous skin. At many times, it was makeup or just good photography that helped concealed my flaws. Today, I’m gonna show you some scary photos of myself. Hopefully, you would still read my website after you’re done with this entry! Hahaha. Alright, to be fair, I think I was born with average skin. Occasional pimples, dull areas around the nose & mouth and dark eye rings (what else)? Bleah. But to make things worse, the modelling and mad craze for new and many cosmetics and makeup products made my skin worse. And I think my worst nemesis was liquid foundation. No offence to anyone …

Love, me

A and I visited this new place we have been wanting to visit for the longest time. We are a big fan of pretty places and when we found out about this place called Antoinette from some TV show, we were thrilled and cannot wait to go there right away! This is not an advertisement but I really wanna share this place to anyone who wants a pretty place to have tea and nice sweets. There are actually 3 different branches and you can find their address from their website. The one we went to is at Penhas Road and it’s really nice to find such a place in a boring looking place like Penhas Road. :p This place reminds of the Laduree in Paris! I love the pretty blue theme of this cafe and the gorgeous European decor. Here are some pictures of Antoinette. This place is so pretty that all the pictures turned out very well no matter where and how I take them. Hahaha! There are a lot of pretty cookies and …

10 things you can do to make the world better

I am in a bit of a bitchy mode tonight so I thought I will write something slightly bitchy. You hardly see me bitchy, really. So this is hard to come by. Hahahaha! Ok kidding. I am really nice. I was browsing through some old entries and I realised it has been a while since I last wrote a “Top 10” entry. So tonight, I’m gonna sit down and reflect on how we can all make the world a better place. And since I’m feeling a little bitchy today, I will give everyone 5 angelic suggestions and 5 bitchy ones. We’ll do them alternately so we don’t overdose on either one of them.

I am legend

I am obscenely excited about the new plugin I got for my website. And if you’ve ever seen a little pink chat box at the corner of this page, YES that’s the exciting little thing I’m talking about! For those who haven’t seen it before, don’t worry because that thing only pops up when I’m online. I have always wanted to talk to people who read my blog. Afterall, this place is somewhat like a virtual home to me and I’d wanna know the visitors to my home better. And what the hell! I actually met one of my best friends Rossie through my blog couple years ago! And also because I know how most people are a little reluctant to leave comments, I thought a chat box would be a great idea! I tried it out and spoke to a few of the readers and I’m loving the chat box more and more. 🙂 Well, the conversations somewhat sparked off an urge to share a little more about my days in NTU. Quite a …

I just came home from another meet up with the girlfriends. What a great day! I suddenly noticed that we are all big girls now. As we casually talked about the hay days where we would meet up, chill all day and party all night, I felt old and all grown up. It was by chance how our paths in life crossed, but it was the effort we put in to maintain the friendship. It really is easy to make new friends but hard to keep them all fresh and good. Same thing for all kinds of relationships. After our conversations, I realized that 2012 will be a fabulous year for us! The two girls are getting hitched this year and the rest of us have big exciting plans coming up too. I can’t wait. ♥ Anyways. We had dinner at Meatworks in ION (because all the other restaurants were packed). The food was, honestly, not impressive at all. Thank goodness the company was good. Heh! I wore my new top from ASOS.com & I’m …

The Youth Booster

Hope it has been a fabulous Monday for everybody! I’ve had a lot of fun shopping and stuff today and also bought new facial foam and perfume! Gees. I love being a girl! Speaking about skincare, I wanna share this new treasure I have just tried lately. Have you ever felt that your regular skincare products will somehow lose its effectiveness after a while? That even if it’s something that was very suitable for your skin, it doesn’t seem to be working as well as before? If you said yes, then you’re not alone! There is no scientific explanation to proof this observation but I believe all of us have experienced this before. Before this, I have never seen a similar product in the market and I was pleasantly surprised when I read up more about this new product. The L’Oréal Youth Code Boosting Essence is a new product that helps your skin absorb active ingredients in skincare better and hence boosting your skincare effectiveness by two times! This little bottle is not here to …

It’s the weekend!

I have been really busy with some work and have also been working closely with the designer to come up with a brand new look for my SIXPEGS! This is the first time I am actually hiring external help to design the website and I’m totally thrilled! I hope I will be able to make my “new home” even prettier while still retaining it’s clean black & white theme. Will be back with more posts but please bear with me while I try to make this space a prettier and more fun one! Peace xx

Names that begin with A

Today, I am here to gossip about others. Coincidentally, all three of them have names starting with A. They are all very interesting people, but in very different ways. One wrenched my heart, the other made me bewildered and the last one made my toes laughed out loud. Ok, I cannot wait to share so I shall start now!! For those who have watched enough local comedies and sitcoms, you would have seen Abigail Chay before. In the past (actually even until recently), I have always been unable to determine her gender. Do you know she is also the daughter of the famous McDonalds Granny who appeared in many McDonalds TVC in the 90s? For those who don’t know how Abigail looks like, here is a few pictures to refresh your memory. I chanced upon a video about her life not too long ago and it really touched my heart. I never knew the woman whom everyone laughed at and teased actually had such a turbulent life, and spending many years of her life in …

t.at.too.s

Tattoos are addictive. I’ve been wanting to get another tattoo for the longest time. But I haven’t decided what I want yet. There are many designs I’ve been looking at, but I’m taking my own time because I know the answer will come to me at the right time. It’s always like that. Since I’m at the the topic of tattoos, I wanna share some of the gorgeous pictures I found. I hope you like them too. I really like moustaches, not like real ones but the Pringles one! And I think I’ve listed it into one of my favourite designs. I drew a little moustache on my finger and see what how much fun it can be! OMG I love A’s meow meow cats. ♥
