On the Street: Lady in White

Took this photo eons back.

She walked past me and I saw her beautiful chignon.

The lighting and timing was perfect. If she took one more step she would have been in the shade.

My handmade Feather Extension Clip Ons

Okay remember my post on how I'm obsessed with Feather extensions in mah hair?

I got so obsessed I browsed through ebay and etsy just drooling and getting a major case of obsessititus.

I told myself enough. Went out, bought supplies and made myself an alligator clip feather extension.

Since I can't have 'em semi-permanently in my hair, I'll make a clip on!

Whatcha think? Imma do a tutorial next week if you've obsessed with them since my post and wanna have feathers in your hair!

Too bad I'm starting work soon. I'm pretty sure its not appropriate for work to have feathers in your hair. Sigh..

One can dream.

DSLR Camera Simulator

I thought, I'd share this awesome SLR Camera Simulator I found online!

You can play around with it, adjusting the light setting, ISO and etc. An awesome way to practice. I'm sure Mr. Wonderful would be visiting this website often. Heh.

Graduation Photos

Its almost a week since my graduation and I finally put up some of the photos.

That evening was a little bit magical, a little bit joyous and a little bit sad.

We were in the last session of the day and when we left the convention centre, the sun was about to set. There was lots of fun and laughter, lots of photo taking and definitely lots of reminiscing.

And after that a quiet dinner with my parents and sister to celebrate. I feel kinda guilty that my younger brothers didn't join us.

A Rite Of Passage

Party Planners in the Philippines must have alot of business. This is the first debut I've attended and all of a sudden, there's going to be more!

I never did have one and to be truthful, I wouldn't feel comfortable doing it either but I definitely had a blast.

So Gellene, Happy Birthday!

Slide!

The last roll of Kodachrome

Okay, I know its a little bit late to blog about this but Steven Mccurry was given the last roll of Kodachrome film and last year has it developed.

Below are are some of the beautiful photos he captured with that iconic roll of film.

 

If you don't know Steve McCurry well you probably know the iconic Afghan Girl.

More photos on his blog.

There are just days when I want to sleep next to and wake up to the nice warm body especially now when the nights are so much more cooler.

Shoe Fetishism

I tweeted last night about buying shoes after the workshop and how it was such an impulsive buy for me! Well technically its not impulsive but I don't want to hash up the excuses reasons why its technically not impulsive. (PS: This means, you've got to start following me on twitter!)

And it was on sale!

Wait, why am I feeling guilty and justifying my techincally-not-impulsive-buy??

Its a rich royal purple suede shoes and the height is just perfect for the girl who suffers from mild vertigo if I wear too high a heels.

Here's a couple of action shot.

The main reason why I bought it is because, I saw a similar pair online, a pair of shoes by modcloth.com named after the Unicorn Queen, Doe Deere and creator of Lime Crime Makeup.

Photo from modcloth.com - Doe Deere Shoes

Its a peep toe suede shoes but I just couldn't justify paying for the shipping costs and and the price of the shoes.

So when I saw my purple shoes at chocolate schubar, you know what happened next.

Excuse me while I admire my new shoes some more.

The newest family member

I have a DSLR.

A Canon EOS 500D

Now, I have a Canon Powershot S5 IS, Canon EOS 500 and Canon EOS 500D.

Excuse me if I don't say anything more right now. I'm pretty much still recovering from the effects of drinking too much last night.

Colours at The Pool

I'm done being cranky, just that I don't think I'll be able to see Mr. Wonderful this thanks to the Apache helicopter crash.

He's in Air Force and everyone is on duty till they do some sort of maintenance check on ALL Apaches.

So anyway my sister and I decided to go swimming a few days back and I brought my camera.

I love Sengkang Swimming Complex. If you look around its pretty vibrant with colours.

Its also still fairly new.

Anyway here are some photos.

Mr. Wonderful's mum went on a trip to Thailand recently and bought for me this "Louis Vuitton" flip flops. I love.

I love the bunting strung across the pool.

Part of a wall, stairs and the spectator stands.

Me looking like a nerd thanks to the centre parting.

And my favourite sister. :D Well she's my only sister.

I hope you enjoyed the photos!

Out and About

Okay I reckon that I at least should do a proper blog post, albeit a long overdue one.

Well basically at least some photo updates since I have not been posting my photos and you've got to put a face to a blog right?

So here it is.

And What A Face!

Anyway,

Mr. Wonderful and I went for a proper date (finally). You know sex lunch and and movie. Pretty boring stuff, unless if we really had sex. Then it'll be good. Lol!

We had lunch at Aston's. (Same boring)

Here's what I ordered.

Here's what he ordered.

And then we took bites out of each other's lunch.

And here's my favourite thing about Aston's! (Yummy)

And while waiting for our order, we took photos! (Fun!)

And here is Mr. Wonderful modelling the scarf I made. Crazy right? I mean making a scarf, a thick one when Singapore is a tropical island.
Now if only I finished it in time before Janice went off to Finland. I could have given it to her where it'll be much more useful.

After lunch we went to watch the legend of Chen Zhen. (Boring)
Story line pretty much the same as Ip Man. Reluctant hero forced to be a hero due to the fact that a good friend died and want's justice. Fights evil Japanese Major and won.

Only the action scene in the beginning while at France was awesome. Other than that, pretty repetitive of what Donnie Yen does in all his martial arts movie.
Oh and what's up with the monkey noises in the final fight scene? Totally throws me off. He doesn't make funny monkey sounds in the earlier fights and now he suddenly does??

I'd say, Donnie Yen should just stick to acting.
Not really cut out to be an Action Director.

I would have made out with Mr. Wonderful but an old man in front of me keeps imagining that I kicked his damn seat. If I were to kick I'd be resting my feet on his bald pate.

So that's for now.

(sigh, I'm in a very cranky mood and I'm sorry.. actually I'm not sorry but I will be once I'm done being cranky)
