#421 - The Thing About Shoes

(Help me click the Nuffnang advertisements at the top of the blog/sidebar, thanks! :D)

I love looking at shoes online even though I can't buy them online (will explain this in a while). They give me a very calm feeling, wtf.


Love this pair of shoes the moment I saw it.
You could say it was love at first sight! ♥

According to the blogshop, these are Vivi inspired wedges.
I've good taste. :P

Once saw people selling it at *scape flea, SGD42! Wts.

 Yes I love nude coloured shoes! :)
Yet another Vivi inspired.

I saw my cousin wearing it in one of her blogshops photoshoot and I just smsed her enquiring about the shoes.
Waiting for her reply, hope she didn't tell me she got it from a blogshop!

Update: Okay apparently it was from a blogshop, and coincidentally it's from the blogshop I saw this pair of shoes! >< Suddenly feel like getting but I can't decide what colour plus I can't get them online (refer to bottom of entry)!!!


I think my eyes are attracted to strappy and simple designs.

 
 Why so pretty one!

 Perfect for casual dressing, I like the dusty pink one! ;)

 I kind of like gold buttons!

Yeah and if you notice, for me, wedges > heels.
Man I want these so baaaaaaaaad, but it's hard to find them selling in shops in SG! :(

Most of them are from blogshops and I don't like the idea of ordering shoes online.

You can't see how exactly the shoes look like, whether the workmanship/cutting is good, can't try it on to see whether it suits you, whether it's THAT comfortable plus there's always this problem of sizing.
Yes, I know sizing chart is provided for reference but how much can you actually trust that?
Another thing in mind for me is that I've rather broad feet, plus feet of different sizes.
AND I am really anal when it comes to buying shoes.

Both the left and the right side must be mirror image-ly perfect (if you get what I mean).
So I've to see the shoes and compare them myself.
Many a time when I buy shoes, I piss many sellers off because I keep requesting them to change a new pair of shoes for me because the shoes are not perfect enough. :P

But there's a reason behind why I do the thing above.

-start of rant-

Ever since that one time i bought a pair of brown heels on impulse (see them here), I learnt my lesson.
That day, I was in a rush and didn't check the heels properly and only realised it when I got home that one of the heels' heel are slightly crooked. :(

From then onwards, I become very fussy about getting shoes.

-end of rant-

Anyway, I 'hate' how some shoes I like comes in different colours, because I can't decide what to get and just feel like getting them all! ARGH.

If anyone knows where to get these shoes in shops in SG (no blogshops please), please kindly let me know! :)
In the meantime, I will just sit in front of the com and emo while looking at these pretty shoes.

On a lighter note, I finally got a pair of sandals that are look worthy to me from Rubi!
Cheap and pretty.
In nude somemore! <3

#420 - Primary School Besties Meet Up

Oh hi! :)

Met this bunch of girls whom I shared nearly 10years of friendship with last week! :D
I've known them half of my life, some even ¾!!!*stares at Babi*
Natasha wasn't here if not the group photo would have been completed. Oh well. :/


Since it was a simple dinner meet up, I suggested going to Bukit Timah.
 Idk why but I like to blog about food. ._.

Plus the lightings at the restaurant super bright so I can take food without flash.
So pardon me as I go through the food one by one. 

Garlic Naan, Butter Naan and Butter Chicken Masala

Belachan KangKong
This is seriously weird..
I mean by the looks you can already tell.
My mum (or yours) can definitely cook better!

Coin Pratas with Mutton
Dopedopedope.

Mutton Murtabak
Too muttonyyyy. :(

Sambal Stingray
So blur. :(

White Rice
This photo is redundant I know. :P

Headed to U.d.d.e.r.s for ice-cream! 
Reminds me of chemistry, trigonal planar arrangement or something! B)

And then we started telling stories of weird people/couples/latest gossips!
The usuals~

At one point of time, Afiqah was telling this story and there were too much characters and most of us got confused and thus she used her fingers to represent the characters!

Had to take down photos of it! :)
Haha so it's like when we wanted to ask questions about a character, we had to point at the finger representing it.
Doh!

Decided that the night was still young (act sia), so we went to chill by the pool at Nicole/Elena's condo.
More like feed mosquitoes for me actually, meh. :/

And Raine got her instax recently so we spammed photo taking.
She so generous canz, we used up the remanining ¾ of her Disney films and then ½ of her Stitch ones.

And omg Stitch films are sooooooo pretty!

This photo doesn't do the frames justice.
You have to see it to believe it.
Got glitter glitter effect somemore! :D

See how much we took!

First attempt at group shout without checking through the viewfinder and it was quite a success!
And notice the frame, oh so cute! ♥

Alright group shots to end this entry. :)


Bye! ♥

#419 - The Chronicles of SS (Collecting Her Free Phone)

Part 1: The Conversation

Okay let me give a short introduction first.

And so I went to the SMU Open House a few months ago and then I participated in their Open House contest where you were supposed to upload a photo you took there and then write a few words on your feelings yada yada~

Prizes included 3 sets of iPhone, 2 sets of Samsung Galaxy S and 2 sets of LG Optimus 7.

The SMU person urged me to go participate since not many people know about this contest and told me that the winning chances are very high.

Only 9 people participated.
And there are 7 prizes.
Really high indeed. O.O
 
(Images in this entry are all screenshots hence they are very low in resolution, to view it in a larger picture, Right Click > Open Link In New Tab)
 
Here's my submission. :)
 
 
Yeah and so I waited everyday for them to message me telling me I've won, lol.
 
Then one fateful day (remember using this phrase very often in primary school's compos thinking it's kind of cheem), I got a message!!! (",)
 
 
And after reading, Idk I should be happy or sad.
Happy because I won a phone.
Sad because of all phones there, I so suay got LG Optimus 7.
(Yeah I also think the 5 questions a bit dumb)
 
I swear I hate LG.
Most probably giving it to my brother. :)
 
  Okay so details are being given out yada yada.

Then they said 'more details will be furnished...' so I went to email and message them to ask.
Note: My message is at the bottom and their reply is on top, just so you know.

And I went o.O after reading their reply.
Need to take photos with their director? Omg, wait photo turns out ugly how?!
Anyway I've got work, I don't wanna keep taking leave and their office only opens on weekdays and closes at 1745 I cfm can't make it to collect the phone redemption letter!
So I asked if I can get my brother to collect it for me.


And in order to let my brother collect the letter, I have to print and fill in some authorization letter.


Everything was fine, I could ask someone to print for me and then have my brother bring the stuff required for verification.
Until the super blur me misread the third thing required.


I read as my brother has to bring my OWN NRIC. *facepalm*
It didn't occur to me then that it'd stupid of them if they require a copy of my NRIC and the original one at the same time.
 
And so the mistake was made.
My work requires my NRIC and so I was like shit!
How now?
My brother can't help me anymore, this means I have to take half day leave. :((
 
And thus I replied back.


Omg so paiseh, the person even bolded the word 'copy'.

It was too late, I had to take a half day leave and go down myself.

See my stupid reply:

Seriously I think the person is super patient with me lor.
Even call to inform etc.
I think out of all the prize winners, I am the most troublesome one. *sheepish*

Haha stay tuned for The Chronicles of SS (Collecting Her Free Phone) Part 2: The Collection of the Phone Redemption Letter. :)

PS: If you were wondering, SS means SkunkyShufen! :D

#418 - The Way You Are




 
D: You the only girl that I see
The only one that I dream about constantly

K: You the only boy that I need
The only one that I dream about endlessly

D: I want to say I think you’re perfect
K: You know I think you’re perfect

K: For all the wait I know you’re worth it
D: The wait I know you’re worth it

Break

We’ll always make it through
As long as you’ve got me and I’ve got you

We will take the world in our stride
Anything can be possible by your side

D: I want to say I think you’re perfect
K: You know I think you’re perfect

K: For all the wait I know you’re worth it
D: The wait I know you’re worth it

I love the way you are
I love the way you are
I love the way, I love the way
I love the way you are

Break

D: You the only girl that I see
The only one that I dream about constantly

K: You the only boy that I need
The only one that I dream about endlessly

#417 - My Work Space


This is where I spend ⅓ of my day for 5 days of the week currently.

And this is what I see when I look out of the window.
No sea, no skyscrapers or pretty views.

But it's okay, I can look at clouds!

Anyway, albeit the table being quite spacious, we (my workmate and I) only use a small space because our internet wires are too short. ._.


See how packed it is. :(


Oh well, for the sake of the internet, we persevere on! Lol.

 Anyway, these 2 weeks gonna be good because supervisor's bringing us out for lunch! :)
No more disgusting canteen food, we got so sick of them! >:(

But I can't wait for work to end already!

30 June is my last day and Imma enjoy myself in July! :D

-abrupt end-
