i have been failing miserably on my exercise regime. only exercised TWICE in the past month. ich bin ein Schweinchen. i feel so unhealthy really! plus these days i've been so busy, i always need to take a quick nap when i reach home around evening time. and i take my nap AFTER dinner, not giving my lousy tummy any time to digest, and wake up feeling horrible and fatty, not to mention the indigestion ache that comes with it. bleagh.

we had another photoshoot yesterday. we're trying out a new model! don't ask me why. it was just a decision we came to very suddenly but after many months of talking about it. okay the last sentence was very ironic. oh well. i (and i bet WY + everyone else too) am so sick of seeing my face on MMTP. self worth issues ok?! (note to: gee ern) haha. anyway our new model's Clara, whom we met at Fashion in the Sky. her mom and aunt bought clothes from us at the FITS bazaar, which was how we got to know her. anyway Clara's super pretty!! hope response for this MMTP post is good!

it's time to redye my hair. the other day during Research for Comm Management lecture, we were given an assignment, where we had to go out and observe some people. and my group mate john said, "I observe...everyone with spectacles have black rimmed frames. and girls have make up. and girls with dyed hair in the room have their black roots growing out!" and i looked at him in horror because i suddenly felt so self conscious of my two-toned ah lian hair!!! hahaha i need a DIY dye recommendation!

i miss my black hair!! and i've definitely put on weight since i've been back.

hello world,

it's busy busy busy busy busy week(s). i think since i've been back, that's all i've been saying. i think that's life of a Singaporean. i gotta stop whining about being so busy and embrace my mad hatter's life!

i need to finish an essay by Tuesday, but i am hoping to finish it by tomorrow so i can spend Monday refining it and doing my projects. the module is Culture Industries, and i've decided to write on chick lit. but i'm so smart, i threw away my chick lit readings from my course in Germany so now i've no materials. plus there's not much substantial literature on chick lit, because it hasn't been as explored as topics like reality TV or Star wars as a cultural product for example. i'm going crazy cos' i can't find an angle to write on. i'm directionless, a situation i always find myself in.

just posted a new collection on momoteapots and emails are trickling in very slowly because i've just changed the mailing list system to Bravenet (recommended by SK! thanks!). previously, Gmail banned like 6 of our accounts, because our mass email to our mailing listees were regarded as SPAM. as a result, about 100-200 emails per account bounced back?! and top it all off with a bitter rotten cherry, all those accounts got disabled by Gmail. RARRRHHH. i had to re-setup my gmail mailing accounts, and then re-add alllllll my subscribers to the Bravenet system. and because Bravenet has this "double opt-in" policy, we have to wait for subscribers to confirm their email before they can receive our mails :( so...i suspect we only managed to reach out to about 200+ people with the news on our update this evening. am very sad but have no choice.

last week we were at Fashion in the Sky, an event organised by pretty amazing people :) It was a fashion show + bazaar to showcase local designers and blogshops! it was very awesome! check out the photos of our booth and our models! heh. Jien and Liming came to visit us and i met a few friends there as well. the heat that day was awful baking hot! i was in such a bad mood initially, plus i fell down carrying the luggage to the rooftop (big fat bruise still on my knee) then WY and I decided to brave the heat to walk to Plaza Sing and get...BUBBLE TEA! we've discovered a new flavour that's yumsome i tell you (thanks to momogoh). try Strawberry Green Tea!

Qian Li :)

felt so proud of MMTP watching them walk round the pool with our designs :)

am Skype-ing with WY now. he's at his grandma's house while i'm lying down on my bed looking pretty crappy and his little cousin said,"she looks like she's sick!" hahaha. he's going to kill me for putting the next photo, because he looks like mr. chubbyfats there.

Skype is the most awesome software ever.

okayyy chick lit calls, bye!

NO wait! i need to share with you all this video of one of the most awesome musicals ever. been hooked on it since Siying facebook-ed about her just watching it in London. am missing much the Europe days :( i wish i watched more musicals when i was in London though.

see the gloves on my lap? after i entered the theatre, i realised one side was missing. and when we went out to look for it again it was gone. can't believe i took a photo of the moment it went missing. hahaha
