Welcoming the Water Dragon!

i just realised 
how mindblowingly busy 
a lot of us have been 

for the last two months.


hello?  

it's already the end of January! 

gosh...
 not sure about u guys but i was kept on my toes 

before Christmas, then right through New Year and till now, 

in the middle of the Chinese New Year!

i stepped on the scales today and realised,

 "hey, i lost weight!" 

not bad, right? 

*cheeky grin*

apparently keeping myself uber busy 
throughout the festive seasons has its advantages. 

i've been non-stop munching on cookies and homecooked dinner feasts!


ANYWAY!

to the singles or the available individuals of society: 

how has your angpow harvest been? 

mine has been great. :)

no, i'm not rubbing it in ur face. lol

to the married or the happily attached of society,

thank you for the munneh! 

and all the yummy food... 

May God bless u!

i hope the more u give away, even more shall return to u!

i'm currently back in KL for the Chinese New Year celebrations 

and it has been nothing but lovely family time :)

wishing everyone of u 

a wonderful Chinese New Year!

OH!

i just learnt how to play 

Poker and 21-points card games

all for the sake of chinese culture of gambling during this festive season!

yes. i JUST learnt.

i'm 23 years old this year and i have never gambled bfore this. 

sad, i know. but heck! its never too late! ;p

HUAT AH!!!

oh crappers... I'M LATE!

so i had an extremely busy but amazing
Christmas and New Year celebration. 

How was yours?  

i've not even started on my list of new year resolutions, 

but... pfft~ its nearly always the same ;)

Anyway, wishing all of YOU

a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! 

it may be slightly late but im still uber sincere ok~

25th December 2011

 My Christmas party look! Love it? 

Was at the Glory Christian Center in Damai for the Christmas celebration, 

its turning out to be a yearly visit as a family to that Christian center.  

I'm actually really happy my parents seem to be finally being more open minded 

and seems to be more at ease about going to church. 

Mum did say she would accept Christ so... 

*fingers crossed*

Let's pray for good news, kay? teehee

29th December 2011

the biggest and most happening Twitter event in Kota Kinabalu!

#twtupKK 2011 at the PartyPlay cafe, Lintas

i had to rush off elsewhere for a friend's farewell.

but nonetheless, 

the Tweeples i met were effing amazing!

Felt so inspired and honored to meet each and everyone of them

from all walks of life and surprisingly, some of them came from 

KL, Sarawak and Labuan!

31st December 2011

decided to spend quality time with my parents n lil sister 

at our favourite club - Kinabalu Yacht Club with old family friends. 

i grew up in so many country clubs and i have a biased love for this club. 

:) the staff are now close friends, the manager is like an uncle,

and we've known the people there for decades. 

Theme for the New Year Countdown party - Mafia City!

too cute! 

the balloons and streamers all come down 

at the stroke of midnight.

It's the brand new 2012! 

and it was absolute chaos on the dancefloor 

as parents and children, staff and lovebirds all 

started stepping on balloons, wrapping each other in streamers 

 and dousing ppl in wine n beer!

Fireworks was shooting off at the beach too!

...

Now, 

just two weeks into 2012,

hmmm  *smiles dreamily* 

i'm almost in love with this brand new year.

some thing happened. magical.

to share or not? 

Happy New Year, everyone.  <3

Random Camear Fun on a Boring Sunday

It was a boring Sunday 

and I thank God for Beverly's spontaneous nature

which truly made my day.

She suggested we go have a random photoshoot

near SiCC ( Sabah Indoor Climbing Center), 

next to the Likas Sport Stadium!

here's just a few pics of what we did ;)

my favorites out of the hundreds we took.

gotta be honest,

this was definitely my first time

and it was a hella fun! 

try it out, peeps! 

#1 DESTRESS TRICK - free some more!

Chivas Regal - Aged 18 Years by Christian Lacroix

A particularly popular choice of liquor for most clubbers in Kota Kinabalu -

 Chivas Regal

recently premiered its exclusive Chivas 18 Year Old 

decorated by fashion designer Christian Lacroix. 

With an exclusive party held at the BED, Waterfront

to commemorate its exclusive partnership with the iconic fashion designer, 

fellow bloggers Rungitom, Beverly and I were invited! 

Imagine the mad excitement we felt opening up the invitation! Teehee!

embossed logo on the envelope!

Cyrus gave up on his reading to take some pics of the card too!

taking off the ribbon!

teeth chattering in absolute excitement...

pretty but i was expecting something more. but o wells :) WE'RE INVITED!

The entrance to the party at the BED, Waterfront! 

Looks A-MAY-Zing!

 So, this is how it goes... 

Chivas Regal invited six prominent Malaysian designers 

to create their own signature collections 

inspired by Chivas Regal and Christian Lacroix 

that will be showcased during the party.

Beatrice Looi, Ian Chang, Joe Chia, Jovian Mandagie, 

Lee Khoon Hooi and Michael Ong 

– each showed off a haute couture collection 

featuring three distinct pieces along with a signature bottle sleeve 

during the launch of Chivas Regal 18 year old limited edition.

The fashion show was based on the Chivas Regal's 

brand heritage, colours, materials and texture 

and paraded by 18 local models,

and 7 inspired fashionably unique bottle sleeve designs 

were also displayed during the event.

i think this is bloody cute!

very gaga-ish.

The host of the night? 

Hitz.fm KK 's very own DJ Cassie!

was definitely looking fab in a fiery red bodycon mini dress! 

weird how SWEET looking models were there. no party girl vibe :/

I was really excited about the fashion show until...

"Is it just me or i feel these looks are really odd!?" 

Now, this just makes me feel like i'm not a girl cuz

I particularly didnt like this fashion show at all. 

BUT! one girl's trash could be another girl's treasure?

I'm definitely hoping its just my taste in simplicity and classics.

Haute Couture might not be my thing :)

I definitely have to thank those who were there with me, 

thoroughly enjoyed the night with good friends and Chivas Regal drinks! 

Cyrus and I with our funny faces

Y U NO -?! inspired

bumped into some friends - good times! 

Many thanks to www.borneocolours.com

and Rungitom for the amazing time and opportunity! 

It was definitely something different and another wonderful memory made.

Cheers, people!
