Love is more than a feeling

Favorite styles

Stephy — Sat, 14 Jan 2012 10:58:54 +0000

I would like to share with you some of my favorite styles, the manner in which I would really love to adorn myself in. Though I am no longer a student, I still very much enjoy wearing such causal yet stylish outfits. Thank God some are suitable for office wear too =)

And a hint of Roly Poly to match my days =)

If only Singapore weather can share some of autumn’s cooling weather… it is not a problem for me to dress in such a fashion. Yes I still can try wearing the blazer and walk the lane of Orchard Road… but I guess I’ll probably end up looking more like a drenched chick then a stylish chic.

Heart itchy!!! Hahahahaha! Need to go shopping soon =p

Challenge to keep the blog afloat

Stephy — Mon, 02 Jan 2012 02:37:30 +0000

It has been a month since I last blogged. Now that I officially joined the workforce, I find that it’s a really big challenge to keep your blog alive. (Gloria, now I fully understand your situation!)

Even if you got sparse time on your hand, you’ll just be (either) too lazy or too tired to blog. In the end you will be doing else things like surfing the net, watching TV, or retreating to some sort of entertainment.

On the other hand, to retain my past identity as a student, it is great to enjoy privileges such as flexibility of time, mobility of freedom, wearing slacks (I love shorts & slippers!), not being punctual for school, and all etc, minus the fact that your pocket remains empty. Man you can go really broke. Or you can try finding a sugar mum (or dad) to finance your expenses. Hahs.

Meanwhile… I have so much fun cam-whoring with Simon! HAHAHA! I love iphone apps! =D

End of 1st week

Stephy — Fri, 02 Dec 2011 12:38:17 +0000

Today marks the end of the first week of work. With that, I came to fully appreciate the TGIF effect =) This is because as a student (for the past 21 yrs ???), Fridays didn’t matter that much and doesn’t highlight any difference to a weekend. As long as you do not have lessons or project meetings for that day, basically you’re free. Even when you have lectures to attend, at most it’ll only take a few hours unlike the full 8 hours (or even more) you’re going to trudge in the working university.

Anyway the hectic-ness haven really kick in for me yet, becoz, as I’ve mentioned, it’s only my first week of work. But I believe as time goes by, more responsibilities will be added, more working functions to learn, and more tasks to handle. And that’s where the OT picture will seep in right!

Camwhored abit when I came back from my interview 3 weeks ago. Hair bann-ed my hair becos that’s the period where I had just snipped off my fringe and nope, I’m not going to show you my Sotong Girl Look (SGL – nick created by Simon)!!

Anyway if you’ve realized, I have a really high forehead and I don’t look good when I banned up my hair in this manner too.. but still, at least better than the SGL la.

Love from Australia

Stephy — Thu, 24 Nov 2011 13:59:18 +0000

Luke is finally back from Australia, and, with lots of love! Chocolates and more chocolates and more chocolates till the extent that you will go “pu zua” (aka body heaty).

First to start with, CHOCOLATE FONDUE FOUNTAIN!! The thought of Marshmallows enriched with the thick creamy layer of chocolate is enough to drive me nuts. Will try this soon!! =D And mummy gonna have more washing to do now.

Since the festive season is around the corner, chocolates are a perfect blend.

That’s what exactly I’m doing now

Refreshing my Facebook page every 30 mins – 1hr.

Refreshing jobstreet/jobsdb page almost every hour to check if there are any new postings on marketing-related jobs. But that came to no avail, with limited openings and no suitable positions.

Trying to fill my empty days with an endless chain of dramas, yes, till my head hurts and I needed a panadol for cure. Some days, when I just so sick of dramas, I’ll just lay on the bed and sleep. So the itinerary of the day starts like that: wakes up –>search for jobs –> surf the net –> lunch –> nap (2 hrs) –> bath –> search for jobs –> stare at the computer –> stare at the computer –> stare at the computer

And stared till my head hurts again. Life’s so meaningless and crappy now. Boring and going poorer…

Crap

I hate life suddenly.

I envy her

Stephy — Fri, 30 Sep 2011 15:47:20 +0000

I have a friend whom I always envy. Everything she has was so favorable. She has the looks. She has the brains. She has a nice personality. She has a wonderful family. She is great in singing. She has many friends. She has slim legs. She is empowered with financial support to go overseas to further her studies.

Everything in her life is just so perfect. Sometimes, it just a line between envy and jealous. When your heart starts to covet, you’ll in deep shit. I have to say, I do envy her alot, coz she’s a really nice girl. But now, I suspect I am getting jealous of her.

Well.. at times like that, I think I should just blank my mind out of everything and take a slow breath. And then, be appreciative =) Quit comparing and stop bothering, and be appreciative of everything God has bestowed to me. I need a moment like this now.

Anyway I sound like emogirl89@hotmail.com!!! hhahaha!

A memory lane down the sweet stairs

Stephy — Sun, 04 Sep 2011 14:37:32 +0000

If you are someone who borne of a sweet tooth, this post definitely appeals to you. If you are not, crap, I think you can end your reading here! To all the foodie, sweet treat lovers out there, here’s my concession to you

1. Nectarie le’Dessert Patisserie

I first tried their cakes in 2008? Or maybe 2009? Can’t remember the exact date but yes I surely can recalled the goodness of it in my mouth back then. It was just FABULOUS, or AMAZING. And I swear I literally spring from joy at my seat! Totally blown away.

2. Privé

Celebrated my 2010 Christmas with Simon at Prive. With the scenic view, idyllic atmosphere & cozy environment, it is a perfect date for 2. The plus points come in as the main dishes were tasty & delectable too, not forgetting the winning desserts. Of all, I love their Tiramisu & Apple Crumple (Crust Pie) the best!

3. Hacienda

Almost all my dessert-eating trips were planned (or intended) ones, except for Hacienda. It was a sudden, random & rather quick decision made by Simon to rectify the anger in me. Nope pls don’t mistaken, I wasn’t angry at him. It was just that I was having one of the mood swings because I would not be able to get my McDonald’s breakfast. Yap, I totally demeanored like a kid when mummy says “no sweets” for you. I still remembered I sounded really down & I even sort of threw my temper at him =x Instead of quarreling with me, he maneuvered the opposite by bringing me to Hacienda Dempsey for a $17 American breakfast without delay. Awhh..on top of being touched, this reverse psychology worked really well because I ended up feeling guilty & sorry for my attitude.

One of the menu for the sumptuous breakfast was HOT PANCAKES! It tasted soooo good with the combination of the maple syrup & whipped cream ;p Irresistibly gratifying!

4. Bonheur Patisserie

This one I tell you, is really the “God of Desserts”!! I know I sounded kua zhang, but…I swear, after having a bite of it, you will want to bow your feet & worship the patissier! Emotionally evoking piece of art. We had like a total of 3 cakes & it sum up to be $24+. I have to agree that it is slightly pricey, BUT, I’m afraid you will still want to empty your whole wallet in exchange for all the sweet treats.

Have fun savoring!! =D

Walking dead blog

Stephy — Mon, 15 Aug 2011 13:27:36 +0000

I know my bloggie has been suspending in mid-space for quite ya, some time. Massive amount of projects meetings (and more to come) as well as preparation for upcoming SM test have made me really time-deprived. I have so much to blog, yet so little time to devote.

Hi there to all, will update when I find any spare time on hand!

2nd week back school

Stephy — Mon, 25 Jul 2011 14:51:05 +0000

First day of lecture. Late.

Second day of lecture. Late.

Third day of lecture. Late.

2 weeks back to school. U guess? OF COZ STILL LATE LA!

The strings of “LATENESS” have yet to be broken yet, woah & I’m buffing up good records of being LATE. Classes have been the same too. It’s either the lecturer’s feeding us with some drowsy content, or, it’s just that my friends and I were so excited upon seeing each other that we couldn’t keep our mouths tight. Talk, talk, talk, and talk.

Zoom. And, BUSY is gonna punch me hard in the face soon. All the projects and class tests. ROAR!!!
