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.

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 Nokia OVI App Wizard Workshop preview!

Nuffnang Singapore and Nokia hosted a workshop recently on 15 December to share with 50 lucky bloggers on how to create your very own OVI app for bloggers to reach out to our readers on the go!

And guess what?

I'm one of the lucky 50 who was chosed!

As my app (OMG, I have an app!!) is still under vetting, I won't blog about it just yet till its been approved by the OVI store. So here's an awesome preview of my app!

Waking Up Famous - Nokia OVI App Wizard Preview

Apologies!

Sorry for the lack of update!

Since the last I blogged, I was in the midst of Mid semester torture tests and straight after that I was working at the Singapore Toys Games and Comic Convention.

If you went, good for you! If you bought tickets from the counter with the green-eyed girl, that was me!

After the torture tests and the weekend job, I took two days off to recover and now its wednesday!

Time sure does fly very past and I've got Novena Masses to go and my Final Year Project Report to edit.

Not to mention I'm going for a workshop tonight by Nokia! More about that tomorrow or Friday!

Anyway, here are some photos I took with my phone at the Comics Con.

 Me with a Storm Trooper and a TIE Pilot! This was the reason why I wanted to work for STGCC. Star Wars fan girl heaven!

 A real R2-D2! Really, its not just a prop!

 Two picture of Darth Vader just because. :D (PS Not real, just a doll)

Oh and to break the star wars theme going on here, meet Phil. The cartoonist of the Simpsons. He charges $40 to Simpson-ise you.

It wasn't really that bad. Half of the convention was anime-related and the other half were your american-influence comics. Toys tho, mostly collectibles and anime merchandises. Alot of artistes. The guy who draws Wolverine was there also but not when I did my walkabout.

Too bad they don't have mature content comics like Hellboy or Hell Blazer cos of the kids! I'd have bought it for Mr. Wonderful.

Okay, shutting up now before I let on how much of a fan girl I truly am.

Presenting my class, The Mug Shot Edition

As I mentioned, my class did a photoshoot and here are the photos hot from Facebook!

Aren't we cute!!

I'm the one with the Kitty Cat Ears! <3

If you have not realized it yet, Girls outnumber guys, by ALOT.

There's suppose to be 21 of us, 6 guys, 15 girls but a few of them found it pointless to do it.

Oh well, its not our fault they don't want to be part of a class.

Anyway, our awesome photographer, Shamil is my classmate's (Zara) boyfriend and he willingly did for free!

My eyes literally turn bug-eyed when I saw his equipments. The investment in the equipment pretty much says it all for his dedication to the craft!

(I'm feeling a little jealous right now)

Oh yea! I forgot to mention we're suppose to do some sort of mugshot themed photo inspired by this.

So the plan was to give each other nicknames that best described us.

We also wanted to do a height chart but we didn't have time and when we did an impromptu one, it was too short for the tallest person in the class.

Presenting my classmates and their nicknames!

If only you know the reasons behind the nicknames. It'll be too long to explain all.
So guess what's mine??
(PS: I know the photo placement's a bit weird but when I arranged it when I was composing this post it was alright)

They put down The Little Blogger for me, very apt.

The "Nuffnang FTW" is.. Lol.

So now here come's the hard part, We have to choose 1 group shot out of the many and I have to chose 1 individual shot. So why don't you help me decide?

There actually 4 shots, but I decided to put up this two. The least awkward of the 4. (Posing for shoots is a lot harder than it looks!)

So leave a comment and tell me which photo should grace our year book photo, The one on the left or the right with the Kitty Kat Ears!

Class Photoshoot Preview

Yesterday we had a class photoshoot!

Here's a few appetizers!

Will post final pictures when its ready!

Room 303 - DKNY Jeans

Don't you just love a little mystery and intrigue especially if you have to do a bit of detective work to solve the problem?

Well I do and Room 303 an animated murder mystery inspired by the DKNY JEANS Fall/Winter Collection is just my thing!

"The collection itself is inspired by the famous Chelsea Hotel in New York where artistes, rock stars, poets,actors and socialites have stayed ! For many decades, the hotel has been a centre for artistic creativity with a good dose of rock and roll. The aura is one of faded decadence where anything goes and both individuality and eccentricity is celebrated."

(extracted from: DKNY JEANS website)

So Room 303 is set in NYC Hotel, and centres around five strangers, a backpacker, a rock star, a businessman and a model who arrives at the hotel to meet a strange and mysterious man,

Every week a webisode is is launched and viewers are invited to find clues and win prizes!

Sadly the contest is at end but to watch all five episodes of Room 303 go check out the website!

Anyway, I was invited to go along for a Live Hunt at Paragon Shopping Centre!

We started off at the DKNY Store in Paragon where we were given instructions and we downloaded thr SCVNGR app to my best friend's phone.

(Did I mention I brought along my best friend fran?? Because I have no iPhone/Android phone but she has. :P)

We have to follow one of the five trek either the businessman, the backpacker, the artist, the model or the rockstar.

We chose the artiste Carla of course! :D

We clicked on the location..

And searched for the 3 tasks we're suppose to do!

Want to know how we did? Watch the video below

So yea we did complete the hunt but although we both did it separately (me on her phone and BFF on her ipod touch 4) only one of us got the prize cos there was only one left (We were late to start) D:

So the winner got a $50 gift voucher at DKNY JEANS and a really cool thumbdrive! I love the Fall/Winter Collection by the way and I'm so going to buy something from there for Christmas! :D

New Cut!

I forgot I didn't take a photo of myself for the DKNY Post! >.<

What kind of blogger am I??

(Thanks to BFF for this photo)

Anyway I wanted to show off my new look!

I cut straight bangs two weeks back but I only got to show it to you guys today.

Well its suppose to be straight. I asked for straights bangs but the hairdresser thinned my bangs! AGAIN!

And no, I didn't go to the same cheapo hair salon when I had to salvage my hair a month back when I came up with this crazy idea to DIY my bangs.

I went to one that charged me $22 for a haircut at Kovan because the hair salons in Sengkang were out to fleece me!

But the hair salon in Kovan had ITE student trainees O.o They're nice. Really nice. They just don't get my concept even after showing them a picture of Zooey Deschanel.

Failed again. I'm going to get the straight bangs look straight even if I have to pay a thousand dollars! (Not really a thousand, maybe 50)

PS. I think Thinning Sccissors should be banned.
