Partying with the hoi polloi (sarcasm)

Happy day everyone!!

I am elated!!

I am most glad of all coz Munkysuperstar, my managing company as well as the production company for Xiaxue's Guide to Life, approached Dr Georgia Lee...

Dr Georgia Lee is of course the most famous aesthetics doctor in Singapore, right? Right.

AND SHE AGREED TO DO LIP PLUMPING AND BOTOX FOR ME FOR GUIDE TO LIFE!!!!!


Happy beyond words can??

So yesterday I did lip fillers and botox on my jawline at her clinic (like exactly what Rozzie did for Girls Out Loud) and I AM SO PLEASED!!

You know how my smile used to be very very GUMMY? Now, because my upper lip is fuller and more pouty, cannot see gums anymore!!

And botox is done for making the muscles at the side of your face smaller so that your face will look thinner!

The video will be out soon and I will post up photos also!!

So far EVERYBODY said the lips are nice, but the botox cannot see much diff yet.

DR LEE IS FREAKING AWESOME OK!!! I love her so much imma do free advertorial for her once I get pictures!!

Don't worry don't worry... I am not addicted to plastic surgery ok! These are non-invasive (are they?) and effects are only temporary. And complimentary of course I do!


Secondly, I am happy because my shopping arrived!!



I bought loads of crystals from Artbeads.com to zhng stuff! They've got more choices than Arab street, so why not!?

Anyway, my sidekick is STILL NOT WORKING. Yes. I bought this little chip that you insert WITH your sim card, and it worked for 1 full day.

Then it stopped working. So now the GODDAMN phone is still locked!

I bought another unlock code but it will only arrive on August 22nd. By then I die already lor!



My Juicy desk accessories set, bought for $55 USD!! -_- That's not counting shipping.

It's so chio though...! Unfortunately it is made of paper. Kuakua!!



And my lovely mouse!!!!!!!!! $45 USD. SO HAPPY!!


And guess what...



This is making me actually pee in excitement.

THE TALES OF BEEDLE THE BARD IS READY FOR PURCHASE!

For those of you who don't know, J K Rowling penned another book... This book is called The Tales of Beedle the Bard - it is a storybook of magical fairy tales. The book is mentioned as the book that Dumbledore passed to Hermione in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

Once I heard the news that amazon is selling the book, I immediately clicked there and spent USD$100 on the precious collector's edition.

AHEM. It is not wasting money ok! It is called INVESTING! All of Rowling's first edition books are sold for THOUSANDS on ebay lor!

Yes, MAYBE those has her signature on them la... But still!

Anyway my USD$100 is all donated to CHARITY! So that's great too!


I know what you are thinking...

"Lawsuit maybe flying your way, still go and spend so much money shopping!"


Wah lau... She want to sue don't sue like that, I can't possibly be scrimping till she makes up her mind right?

Wait till I get the writ of summons then cross that bridge la, seriously.

To the someone who paypal-ed me $100, I am going to return it to you. You send it to me again if the real need arises k!!

But will this lawsuit happen? If it does, I do want to go to court and ask Dawn a BARRAGE of questions!!

Like... Are you really Eurasian? Are you DELIRIOUSCHIC and XOXODOLL?? So many mysteries so little time!

Very curious right? I'm sure you also want to see her answer these under oath. :)



*****************************



Momo and my 2 girl cousins and my auntie came over to my place that day...

I love my cousin Cally's niap niap baby girl...



This is baby Chloe!

Her mummy and daddy both got huge eyes so hers are like marbles also. She loves looking at me!! I think it's because of all the shimmery things I have.

OMG I AM RAGGGGGGGGGING WITH MATERNAL INSTINTS!! RAGING!!!!!!



We put her on the bed where she is very confused by all the aunties gossiping.



Happy babies make me happy!



She's really curious and gives you her full
attention when you speak to her



So niap! Why babies got such nice clean armpits??

After this we bring the baby to Ikea Tampines...





Chloe's grandma, aka my auntie, makes her chuckle in joy by poking her in the belly.

BTW this is the auntie who is an MJ queen can?

Once, during a game, she won by drawing the very last card. So I said "Hai di lao yue!"


SHE SCOLDED ME AND SAID THAT IS NOT HAI DI LAO YUE!!!!!!

I was like, "????????????"

Isn't winning by the last card "hai di lao yue"???

My auntie then explained to me that that term is commonly misused. It is true that winning by the last card adds a "fan", but it is not hai di lao yue...

BECAUSE HAI DI LAO YUE MEANS YOU WIN WITH THE LAST REMAINING TILE AND THAT TILE MUST BE AN YI TONG!!

Thus "yue", which means MOON! Because the bloody yi tong look like moon!

Amazing hor?

Anyway.... back to non MJ related stories...





I am very excited coz Kaykay and I are going to...

Zhen Shan's (aka Arissa) birthday party!



Me being driven there by Mike...

Dress: Heart neckline purple satin short length dress. From This Fashion at $15 OMG!!

Glow: Photoshop new technique learnt from Jamie - Diffuse glow!!



My angmoh very unhappy coz I am going clubbing without him.



I look weird here... Whatever la



WE ARRIVE AT VELVET!!


Where's the birthday girl?



Must be the one with the bunny ears. See they so excited about me coming that they are gossiping in anticipation. Hahahaha!

*poke*





Must take pic with the birthday girl!

I hate Zhen Shan!! Those are her real lashes can??? People like me must put extensions and stick falsies like crazy!!!!

Nabeh why my eyes so small. *kicks sleeping Mike*

Gossipy Kaykay



Here's Annabelle holding the balloons.
Did you guess it right?
It's a unicorn!



Me with Eric

This guy's so talented! I got to know Eric coz we went to NYC for Singapore Day together. Maybe more of you know him by his Chinese name: Huang Yun Ren.

Familiar? That's coz he wrote songs like Tanya Chua's Wu di dong and Fish Leong's Wei wo hao.

NICE RIGHT?? I love those songs can!

Eric also did most of the music for 881, and now he is working on 12 Lotus.

Talented people make me have twangy feelings. Like got some aura on them. You'll never know if you are talking to him and suddenly he has inspiration for some classic work... then you are immortalized as the muse!! OMG! I am totally muse-ish.



Peekaboo!



Me, Joycelin, Rosaline





Zhen Shan with her brother... And I did not draw that moustache on him with photoshop! I am not so childish hor!!



End party photos



More happiness!!!!

Mike brought me up onto the Singapore Flyer!!









Us at the very top...


Psychedelic hor the colours?


We also just bought tickets to fly back to the USA for Xmas and New Year!!

From 10th of Dec to 3rd Jan I will be in lovely Dallas!!

I MISS IT SO MUCH AND I CANNOT WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I love the USA!! (Although I love Singapore more la)

My hope is that this year Mike's brothers' girlfriends will be very vain and will go shopping with me on Boxing Day.

I am dedicating 10 hours of my time at the mega humongous F21 over there.

Of that 10 hours, 9 shall be at the clearance rank digging out SUMMER CLOTHES ON DISCOUNT!! Omg!!!!!!!

I AM SQUEALING!! So excited!!


But the sad thing is hor... Plane tickets are MADLY expensive this year!!


We are flying SQ, but it costs bloody $2,700!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MAD OR WHAT??

Even on lao pok NorthWest or whatever it costs 2.5k, so might as well take SQ right? Stupid petrol prices rising la, that's why.

Anyway this year Mike is sponsoring $2k for my ticket, coz last time when he was poor I bought him a 2k ticket to come to Singapore too...

SIBEH BOH HUA FOR ME LOR~!!! Coz price of the ticket increase mah!! Should be 1 ticket exchange 1 ticket mah!!

But still no complains... $700 is very little compared to $2,700!

Poor Mike... Bank account suddenly $4,700 missing...


So anyway, in case you haven't realised... I AM HAPPY! Woohoo! May the happy spread to you too!


Loves!

MAC Starflash & Lustretwins

So, you guys all know MAC launched Starflash & Lustre Twins yesterday, and again like my addicted self, I went to Dillard's to check it out. I was so tempted to buy a lot of them but I wanted to B2M most of them at the free standing store since I have like 30 empty e/s pods from depotting! I took pictures of the displays though! They're kind of off because I took it when the MUA was helping someone else and I didn't want her to scold me so I just snapped them with my iPhone! haha


STARFLASH

I didn't notice til later but Talent Pool is missing from the display but in the picture it's on the bottom right corner lol


LUSTRE TWINS

I was super tempted to buy one of the Lustre Twins just because my fave MUA at that MAC was helping me was totally selling it to me. I'm just gullible like that. I feel inclined to buy things when the customer service is really good! But I held back! Go me! But I did try on one of the colors, Custom Rose, for the rest of the day. She says they're long wearing lip colors and the gloss does fade away, but the color will stay on for 8 hours. The only thing is the texture is different from lip gloss or lipstick. The color did last really long, especially in this 100+ weather we got going on here! I went all around running errands, drank water bottles, and it still stayed on! I might just get Pink Air or the Custom Rose I tried, but at $20 a pop, I think I would rather have my glossy Lip Glass.



Excuse my open mouth. LOL But the only thing I didn't like was the texture. My lips are always super dry so I need gloss or something, but the color does stay when I put gloss over it. I ended up buying these!


2 Talent Pools, Smoke & Diamonds, & Sunset B.


L to R: Sunset B, Smoke & Diamonds, Talent Pool

The texture really is creamy and it does remind me of the Veluxe Pearl finish like Vanessa says. You can really feel that texture even if you just take a swipe I thought they would be a little more pigmented, but they're good for me because I'm still not used to wearing vibrant make up yet! lol I think I'm definitely going back for Mink & Sable just because I don't have Sumptuous Olive, but we'll see when we get there. Talent Pool looks a LOT like Parrot in the pot, but Parrot kind of has a goldish tint to it if you look at it in the right light. But Parrot is more pigmented. I don't know why I bought 2 Talent Pools. Maybe I'll just sell the other one on eBay or exchange it for something else.


Talent Pool vs Parrot

Well I bought other things too at Dillard's, but I need to get ready for work! =]

Finally, piccies!!

I just finished MJ!! Won $45!! Very tired but guess I'll blog first before going to bed.

Met up with Junne, Clara and Ben for dinner at some Jap restaurant at the basement of Raffles City...

The concept is exactly like the old Marche's, except they serve Jap food instead of angmoh food. It's freaking crowded can!? By the time you buy the food back to your table and start eating it is quite cold already lor...

Camwhoring on the cab:


Without skin smoothening


With skin smoothening

Nabeh I edited both of these photos at different times so they turned out looking so different. Photoshop also got mood one ok!!



Was leopard printy that day



I love my stud! Pink and white stripey beach ball with clear diamante!







I better stop looking so doe-eyed otherwise wait people say I am DY-wannabe how?



Junne and Clara, real friends whom I don't talk shit about.
Their teeth not yellow! :)



Our mediocre food. Is it just me?? Did we order the wrong stuff? The pizza and egg thingy was nice, but otherwise very bah.



Lose the card and pay $$$$!



Junne took 3 tries to take this photo lor... The first two were videos. I look exceedingly dumb in them. If you want to see the video I'll upload it.



Ben acting cute. I hate Ben!!!!!!!!! I'll tell you why later.



Where got people so buay paiseh one keep asking me to take photos for the 3 of them.
Nabeh



Photo taken by Ben, who managed to cut his own head off



Taken by the waiter. OMG! The waiter was like damn GONG can? He took 1 picture, and it turned out realllllllly blur. Then when I told him that the first picture is blur, like can you help us take another one?, he looked at me damn seriously and told me that my camera screen is blur!! What the??

My F21 dress is super slutty. Tie at the back and crazy short! I heart bare-back dresses. :D



Again failure at self-shots



Taken by Junne, who is clearly an expert camwhorer.





I was telling them about my Mahjong losses that day when I turned up to look at the ceiling. It was mocking me.



Junne: Guess who's really talking on the phone?

Actually it's Clara! I was pretending... Well done hor?








Mad.














Don't see like machiam very chummy like that. I actually hate Ben!




Where got people eat with 2 forks??



Ben wants to see if a fork can poke through a plastic nose.

Please hor!!

Plastic people also human ok!! What the fuck is going to happen to my corpse if I get buried? I mean, after years and years when my bones disintegrate, will my implant still be there?

BTW, I don't know if I've mentioned this, but going ahead with the nose job was the best decision I've ever made. THANK YOU MEDIACORP, DR MARTIN HUANG, MUNKYSUPERSTAR I LOVE HEART YOU ALL!

Thank god I fought for it and didn't listen to my mom/Howard/Mike, etc!!

Whenever I look back at my old videos/pictures I just think the old bulbous nose was really very distracting. It's like THERE, in the middle of my face, taking up so much space and like... having a bloody life of its own!

I did the surgery because I've always HATED my old nose. I still am not 100% satisfied with my current nose because it is still not perfect, but I won't do another surgery because I think the reason for doing it will be wrong.

Also because I have no money la. HAHAHA!

The thing about plastic surgery is... if there is something you are really dissatisfied with, why not change it? This "purpose" is to make you feel better about yourself - less self-conscious, etc.

But if your reason is to be ultra beautiful/perfect, then I don't think that reason is right. Because when do you know when to stop? Nobody's ever really perfect, correct?

Hiyah I dunno how to explain la! Basically my point is that people need to know when to stop.

I am not encouraging everyone to also go do it. I mean, there are plenty of blotched jobs around too, but just in case anyone is curious about what I think, 1 year after my nose job.... I never regretted it. Best day of my life in fact!



Junne very happy thinking about my implant lying around with my bone ashes :(



Still laugh!



Clara acting chio



Freaky? Hahahaha!

Nowadays I love to insert the lower ball bearing of my tongue stud into my straw (the size is exactly right!!) and pretend to innocent friends that the tongue stud got stuck and it really hurts a lot.

It freaks them out totally! :D

But in actual fact it is not painful at all. I did this to Mike 3 times and pretended to whimper in pain and ask him to take the straw out for me.

On the third try he finally wisened up and took the straw away from me. =(



Looks like you...



Your boyfriend!!!

Anyway hor, today I am damn angry at BEN!!!

People who don't play Mahjong won't understand so just skip it.

So... We were playing MJ right, then... everyone's cards was quite big except for Ben's... Nobody knew what he was doing la.

Then it was the very very last card. I drew a bloody BIRD.

The bird is a damn safe card coz there were already 3 on the discard pile and nobody wanted suos.

Since my card was the last card, by right I didn't have to throw it, correct?

But in my relief that the game was going to be a stalemate, I threw out the bird, like showing the others, "Cheh... nothing happening la! Last card so anti-climax!"

I didn't actually MEAN to throw out the bird la.

And suddenly... you guessed it.














BEN WON 13 YAO.











When he opened his cards I thought he was just showing us that he ting pai or what...

BUT NO! HE WON ON MY BIRD! THE LAST BIRD WHICH WAS THE LAST TILE THAT I SHOULDN'T HAVE DISCARDED!!

ANGRYNESS!!!!!!

TIO BAO $30!!!!!!!!!!!! (Coz we play shooter-pay)

NABEH!!!!!!!!

Really a stunner lor. Ben insisted that if you throw out the last card it is still counted as throwing... Sorry!

SO NEXT TIME AH, IF YOU HAVE THE LAST CARD DON'T THROW IT OUT STUPIDLY LIKE ME HOR!

End of MJ rants. At the end of the day Ben won $70 and I won $45 so I shall not complain!


*********************


I've received several emails and comments asking if I penned this. Wtf? Automatically it is me meh?

To this unfounded allegation, all I have to say is, WHERE IS THE PROOF?

No proof don't anyhow say hor! Wait I sue you ah! Tsk tsk!!
