Hi everyone!
Wishing everybody a blessed Christmas! May your years ahead be blessed abundantly, filled with lotsa love, joy and peace! Jesus came because God loves every single one of you. =)
And of course, Happy Birthday to my Saviour, Jesus Christ!
In this great occasion, do enjoy the video by one of my favourite YouTube sensation, Jayesslee. =)
and by my sister Phoebe, who sang us a cover. So sweet of her kan? *cough cough*
Have a blessed day and celebration!
I have not been following much on the X-Factor, but I have heard a lot about Melanie Amaro!
The results were out and Melania Amaro is crowned the FIRST X-factor winner!
Only 19 years old, from Sunrise Florida, beat a soulful 30 years old singer, Josh Krajcik of Wooster, Ohio. Chris Rene, the 28-year-old singer-rapper from Santa Cruz, California, came in third place.
Melanie performing her winning song, Listen by Beyonce.
When I listened to the song she sang. OH MY OH MY. It’s amazing!
Simon Cowell mentors Melanie in her X-Factor journey.
Watch it yourself and you will definitely agree with me!

Melanie just couldn’t hold back her emotions!
It’s a freaking $5 MILLION recording contract! I would have felt that way too even if I win 1% of what she won. Haha.
And her crowning glory moment. The reactions were priceless.

Melanie deserves the winning title! Congratulations for a new amazing career ahead! Bet this is the best Christmas gift for her. =)
I know it can be annoying to see me complain so much on Facebook, flooding your timeline. But I was REALLY very pissed and angry because I had to face a pool of humans (err….whatever) and not being able to go home because it was still raining so heavily, bus stop were packed with people and the taxi queue was from ION taxi stand till Wisma Atria. Never in my life I see such long taxi queue! How to now get #pekcek when I was so tired and I just wanna go home.
After work at 2pm, we headed for some lunch over at Lucky Plaza. It was raining then. When we were half way having our meals, it started raining so so heavily. It was around 3pm then. After lunch, since it was still pouring, we decided to just go for some shopping.
To our HORROR, there were SO MANY PEOPLE, we could barely move. In this kinda situation, no one is nice. If you’re nice, you will never reach your destination. As a resident in Singapore and Orchard Road is like our territory since we work there, we found some short cuts where tourists and others who don’t frequent Orchard Road don’t know. *neh neh nee boo boo*!
After walking in the shopping mall getting sardine-fied most of the time, we decided to go back. At 5pm. It is also because I was so so tired and sleepy after consuming ayam penyet for lunch =D.
And when I walked out to the bus stop, it was still raining very heavily. So I decided to take the cab. I thought the queue was very short (it looks VERY SHORT from afar though) but to my 2nd horror moment, the queue was freaking LONG! T_______T
I tried to call cabs, but I CAN’T EVEN GET THROUGH THE LINE!
Used the iPhone app to book for a cab but “No cab available at this moment. Please try again 10 minutes later.”
Siao meh, 10 minutes later? I tried every second later!
Gave up waiting, I went back into ION and jalan jalan in Prologue bookstore. And sigh, also PACKED with people inside.
After 45 minutes, I saw the rain has stopped. I decided to just take the bus. And phew, the bus stop was not as packed anymore. Waited for less than 5 minutes, my bus came and it was pretty empty! =D Arrived home at 6.30pm
Messaged the bf and he told me Orchard Road flooded.
I was like, “huh? I just came back from there leh…No flood pun..”
And I terus googled and OMG….it really did flood! Lucky Plaza also flooded! And this is the 2nd time Liat Towers were affected. Good thing I off at 2pm today. Or else I think I’ll be stucked in Orchard Road til later at night.
NO WONDER LAH….Rupa-rupanya Orchard Road flooded AGAIN!
We wanted to leave at 5pm and that’s when the flood started.
Flood at Lucky Plaza
Flood at Liat Towers
Flood in front of Paragon
Can’t figure out which unerpass is this. Probably Shaw Tower?
Oh well. Why flood ah, PUB? If whole Singapore flood, can I be the first to go on the ship on top of Marina Bay Sands?
I first read about the proposal of nuffnang co-founder Timothy Tiah and Audrey, also known as fourfeetnine when I saw the bf retweeted on twitter about their proposal. You can read them over at Tim Tiah’s and Audrey’s.
It was so sweet and simple. A day celebrated and witnessed by their close friends. One of them was Ringo of Cheeserland.com.
When the proposal video was out, produced by Crazy Monkey Studio, it went viral! First, I saw many of my fb friends posted them out. My timeline was filled with them sharing the video. Most of them don’t know who Tim Tiah and Audrey are!
Anyway, then the next day saw some sharing via 9gag.
The video had 32,000 views in less than 24 hours! O.o
After that 24 hours, they had almost 600,000 views. And then it’s on Gizmodo, one of the world top technology weblog about consumer electronics. Then on MSNBC and……blogged by RYAN SEACREST!
And Christina Perri also tweeted and share it on Facebook!
Basically, it’s shared everywhere. On PC World, DiGi FB page, on MSN Malaysia, Huffington Post – a TOP blog in the US, Mashable – the largest independent news source dedicated to covering digital culture, social media and technology and Reddit. I’m sure there are more to come. Now, the infamous blog of mine is sharing it to you too! haha.
Met Audrey at NAPBAS 2011 because Pao wanted me to take a picture with Audrey and show it to her because Audrey is her favourite blogger. Also met Tim Tiah in the noisy Zouk while he was talking to the bf. Both Tim Tiah and Audrey are one sweet couple. At that time, the video was not out yet. But managed to congratulate Audrey on her engagement though.
Anyway, here’s the video on their Meme Proposal. Sweet and simple. And because of the creativity of Tim Tiah, it went viral all over the WORLD. Malaysia BOLEH! =D
Read about Tim Tiah’s and Audrey’s blog about this video proposal.
Congratulations again to the both of you on your engagement! So, a Meme wedding too? XD
Other than being back for NAPBAS 2011 last weekend, I was back to celebrate the bf’s birthday and also our 8th year of relationship together. The original plan was that he was supposed to come down to Singapore instead of me going back to KL (because I have been traveling back to KL too often this year). But the plan changed when he persuaded me to be his partner to NAPBAS 2011. He said, if I can’t go, he need to find another date. And my friends were telling me to go because not everyone gets to go and they had to do a blog post in order to win passes to the NAPBAS. So I’m the lucky one aye?
Whee!
Anyway, last Saturday, we spent the whole day together. I insisted of going to church on Saturday and managed to drag him along. It was a great day to spend some time together walking in shopping malls, makan, and see smiles on each other’s face. We had to celebrate a day earlier because I had to fly back the very next day to Singapore.
There’s one thing that I am still in denial is that the bf bought me something. Something every girl would dream to own.
Honestly, it is still kept nicely wrapped in their cloth bag and in the gift box. Hehe. Will definitely use it soon!
Thank you so much….!!
And time after time, he brings out a gift for me. I did not expect SO MANY gifts from him because it’s just our anniversary.
The first surprise. Piglet all the way from Tokyo Disneyland! <3
And then came more Pooh bears.
Here’s the whole collection of soft toys + pillows (excluding my favourite chao chao pillow) given by the bf.
I feel so kanasai because I only prepared ONE gift for him. Birthday + anniversary gift. T___T
Ya lah….don’t look at the value, people look at the heart…Ada hati dah boleh. But…..I still feel bad ma… =(
Anyway, at night, we went over to Las Vagas at Mont Kiara for dinner. Was pretty disappointed with the venue and the food, but well….at least I ended with Baskin Robbins ice cream then after. =D
So, I gave him his gift. His first response was, “Why you never wrap one?”
And my answer was, “Covered with white box already ma. Save paper can?”
And so, he opened the gift up…..
…..and I think he was almost in tears. LOLOL
He always wanted a watch. Every time I asked him what he wants, his reply will always be ‘a watch’. He has been waiting for 3 years for a watch from me but every year I believe he must be disappointed when he sees no watch. Haha. He also told me that he almost buy himself a watch because he gave up waiting.
Bought this Kenneth Cole watch a month before his birthday at Tangs during their 12% rebate day. HAHA! At least I get some rebate in my Tangs card. =P Had a hard time choosing watches because there were SO MANY of them. Thank God I had Danee with me to help me out. Or else I’ll spend the whole day there choosing one.
On the actual day, which was a Sunday, we had lunch at Marche, The Curve. I think Marche in Singapore is better. ANYWAY…..
The bf was looking for a new pair of jeans. I don’t know is it because he is growing bigger or his jeans are getting looser.
And because I felt SO BAD for just giving him ONE gift while I had SO MANY, I decided to buy him one. Calvin Klein Jeans store was just in front of us and they were having sales. So we popped by inside and have a look. He tried it on and liked it very much as the cutting fits him very well. But the price is like mad expensive.
Well, I believe in owning a good pair of jeans because I bought one from Topshop and it is still so fitting on me! I used to buy new pair of jeans every year because they get very loose, not because I lost weight, but the quality of the jeans were bad, it gets bigger after every wash. Instead of a skinny, it will look like a straight cut jeans.
So, I bought him this jeans.
Yes, this pair of jeans waist line is longer than my shoulder. Oh how much my bf has grown….sideways…Thats the purpose of why this picture was taken. Bwaahahaha.
(I need one too… T___T. If you realize, I only have one pair…which is my favourite grey Topshop Jamie skinny jeans. Nevermind, I shall stay faithful for a while more to this jeans!)
It was one of the happiest weekend of the year. Because we are on long distance relationship for many many years already, this feeling of joy and happiness is as if we have just started dating. Haha. And I’m looking forward for more of such days.
I love you.
