i have finally got a chance to blog after the long week that i had last week. i can safely say i worked 7 days last week (which obviously means i worked everyday of the week) i know right. whoever said army was slack. gosh. like hello its not like ive JUST been doing wardrobe. i do a 4 men job. i love my job but sometimes MC just pisses the SHIT OUT OF ME!! fortunately, out of this busy week was an awesome time spent with friends i feel close to. last fri was lynn's bday celebration and i feel it was quite successful. haha. i love LYNN esp when we start having these LONG CONVOS that are ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS!! haah. then it was off to meet mg, june, grace, ashley and friend, and steph. its always wonderful to meet up and catch up and so far i think my weekly meetings with wg (and sometimes june and justin) are gg great and i hope it stays tt way. anyway after the dinner, i met lynn (again) and ashrul (+joanna+trev becos i didnt know they were coming. hahahaha.) and we went to watch THE PROPOSAL!!!!!!!!



this leads me to my next section where i analyze the movie. haha. the movie was definitely great esp since im a sucker for such romance movies plus the fact that it had great comedy in it. i was kinda disappointed that the newspaper reviews werent very good but im guessing the 2.5/5 rating by life was becos the plot was a bit thin. its not really a thinking movie becos the storyline is very predictable and in your face. the performance of ryan reynold and sandra bullock werent exactly their best too (but the BOOOOOOOOOOOOOY was HAWT!! hahahaha.) i wld personally give it a 4/5. i was laughing quite hard and so was ashrul and the rest of the theatre. maybe the reporter watching it didnt really have a sense of humour. hmmmmmm. o well.
anyway this week has been all about sourcing costumes and i definitely learned a lot about sourcing. its quite fun actually but i had to learn to be really thick skin esp when i was sourcing alone because when i walk into a FEMALE shop, many people ask me qns about what im buying and whether i need help. i dont really like the spotlight on me when i shop. it kinda makes me feel rather uncomfortable but some of the sales people offer good service which is good for singapore's retail.
o and i just watched MISS UNIVERSE 2009.


congrats to the gorgeous ms venezuela (although i do feel that this whole competition was just filled with ang moh bitches not tt i dont like them.) i think it would be better if there was a wider range of continents in the competition. this yr had NO ASIANS in the top 15 and the top 5 answering the question session was not exactly an intelligent moment. sigh. but i do think the winner deserves her crown so CONGRATS!! may her one yr reign be filled with what I WANT (clothes, shoes, jewels, travelling around the world, a gorgeous apartment and not to forget THE CROWN!!)
just a random comment. ive been basically studying my fashion so i keep up to date witht he latest trends and what not. i have been visiting some blogs and i gotta say that a few websites are WORTH VISITING.
1. http://www.fashionologie.com/ (a very twitter kind of website that post snippets of impt fashion news.)
2. http://stylebubble.typepad.com/ (a fashion blogger with a really quirky sense of style that i ADORE!! she can turn any piece of clothing into something fashionable.)
3. http://bryanboy.typepad.com/ (bryanboy. whats not to love about this fabulously flamboyant fashion blogger.)
4. http://thesartorialist.blogspot.com/ (scott schuman produces such beautiful fashion pictures of the ordinary folks. kinda inspires me.)
5. http://coacd.blogspot.com/ (a blog that informs people of the newest models in town. i still have SOME reservations about how diverse this blog is in terms of it spotting the up and coming models of all agencies. but it works for me... for now.)
