Facedoubles

Facebooking has always been the thing for me since the holidays officially started, and recently I came across this cool application called facedoubles where they will compare our facial features and match it with that of a celebrity.

Guess who my counterpart was? Any guesses?



Its Lewis Hamilton!

Just what's up with me and F1? HAHA! Then again, I think I do see some resemblances between my facial features and his. The previous few I tried, I got some others and Jake Gylainhall which was absolutely too good to be true obviously, so yeap Lewis Hamilton is the closest I think!

What do YOU think? =D

Facebook pals, vote if you have the time yea! HAHA! Dont forget to try out this cool application for yourself!

Hari Raya Aidiladha preparations

are finally done and I'm just sitting by waiting for the day to pass, before I formally welcome tomorrow.

Hari Raya Aidiladha has always been a more low key affair for my family, and even up till now, I wonder if this day is actually supposed to be a happy or sad affair.

For one, it is, hari raya, which means Celebration Day, so judging by the name it should be a joyous occasion to be celebrate.

Then again, it is also a day where we remember the people who are miles away from us, performing the pilgrimage in Mecca. I've not had my parents miles away from me for so many days, so I guess I won't know how sad it actually can get, but judging from my cousins who already have experienced it, the sadness experienced is one of a kind.

So there you have it, if we were to lump the two together, it would be more like a day to celebrate the success of those miles away from us for successfully performing the pilgrimage.

Here's where bitter sweet comes into place I guess.

Anyways, enough of ranting for now. So to all my Muslim friends, here's wishing you a SELAMAT HARI RAYA AIDILADHA!

Take this opportunity to make your long overdue minta maafs that have been long brought forward from Hari Raya Aidilfitri! HAHA! Come on, do it. I'm waiting :)

SEE YOU GUYS!

And Vidic Saves the Day

for Manchester United as he scored their only goal in the 91st minute



I must say, it couldnt have come at a better time than this, or United would have had to face humiliation from their own fans. Needless to say, that aim of winning the premier league would have been one level harder had they lost this match.

Huda and I stayed awake to catch this match, and boy was it a nervewrecking match for us, especially towards the final few minutes of the game.

United, never, EVER, do this to your fans ever again :)

Splendour

was a glamourous affair....

Well not because of the venue which shared the same name as Paris Hilton, neither was it cause of the food which was lesser in quantity and quality than that from 2 years ago, but it was the friends and company that made my 90 bucks all worth it :)

Many people looked splendid and its a side of them we totally do not get to see everyday. Okay, many? Who am I kidding, thats an understatement, let's make it all.
.
So I too was dressed in something that was so not me according to many of my friends. I thought I dressed up quite alright for someone who is supposedly not up to fashion, but well, its time I show that fashionista shining through me I guess.

.
Gee! Thanks, but no thanks dude. I'm already taken! (for that night) :D

The hat was the highlight on me I think, especially since Zul here has never even attempted to wear a hat in his entire 18 years spent on earth. Many said I looked really great in a hat and should wear more of it, while some had alot to differ with, claiming I do not go well with a hat. Either way, we can't please everybody right? Hahah... Prom's about trying out things that arent usually associated with yourself, so why not right?

Why don't you be the judge later? =P
.
The emcee was great, he was hilarious and got many of us laughing with his jokes and witty comments. The only thing I felt that could be improved was the selection of the prom king and prom queen. For one, I would rather they grill the prom king and queen nominees with hard-to-answer questions rather than making us do embarrassing stuff like shaking your butt in front of a global wide audience. Please, I'd rather settle for a cat-walk lah!
Yours truly here was one of the 20 prom king nominees. HAHA!

Alright, here are some pics from that night full of memories...
.


Award for the best runaway bride goes to none other than Shahidah! Awesome isnt she? It seems as if she was a princess kidnapped from Storybook Land and sent to attend prom at Hilton hotel. Simply gorgeous!
.


The purest of them all, at least for that night, had to go to Cassandra. Dressed in white, she was shimmering in light from head to toe. Even her complexion was so super fair... Stunning! =D
.


Mr Darren makes a grand entrance. In my opinion I think he was the most charming and suave of the entire lot of guys I saw.. There was just something about him that oozed confidence and charm =P Wooh I'm envious! XD
.


Come on, let's act cool :) And ohh, Haziq wins my smartest dressed award. He looked so knowledgeable and smart in that outfit! Whether he is one is another different story altogether. Wait, who are we kidding? OF COURSE HE IS ONE! =D

And award for my best photo of the night?

.
It has to be this one with Weini! Photos with your secondary school cum JC friends are always somehow the loveliest. I looked the best here, she looked really beautiful here, its a photogenic shot alright! XD

Actually there is one more contender for this award. Don't ask me to choose, I can't =P



Took this photo with cassandra after prom. We stood on a narrow but higher pavement than the ground and got this shot. Now this is what I call artistic :)

So comments? How do I look? Haha.. feel free to tag me about it ya? Be back with an update soon! =D

Pre-Prom Preparations

is ongoing and that title is cool cause all three words start with P :)

Okay fine, lame... Anyway, I have decided.. I am going to wear a hat for prom.

Hopefully the entire suit looks nice on me.. HAHA! Just for those of you who have not seen me in a hat, and that's practically everyone of you, here's the hat I'll be wearing on me...



Okay, more updates when I come back. Looks like I'll have to update more frequently. The indo trip update is not done yet still. I still need photos :)

Cya guys when I come back! Await my dear prom photos!

Change is inevitable, and it takes people with courage to opt for change

Have I a choice?

I originally thought I wanted to rot my entire december away, but I suddenly have a debt to clear and thus, I HAVE to work to earn money.

Working isnt that bad is it? Lets hope for the best. At least I get some experience during this holidays.

Bummer...

Update on Indo trip soon once I receive the photos. As of now, its back to the newspapers and internet drowning myself in countless of job advertisements.

I swear, I'd rather drown in water than this

He's back in Singapore!

and he wonders if his friends missed him :)



HAHA yes HELLO GUYS! I'm back in Singapore, and I swear, when I first touched down I was so super happy to be back here after 8 days experiencing life in a foreign land.

It was tough, really, but we managed to get through life in a different place having to speak in the Indonesian native tongue and all those. More on that later!

Yep indeed i missed all of you here. I miss blogging, I miss my friends, and I cannot wait to get back with life in Singapore, although part of me still misses the newfound friends I made at SMAN 71 Senior School.

Waking up today felt kind of weird without the MLCS students plus Darren Glenn Linda and Michelle.

Oh well, I'll learn to adapt to this quiet life.

More when I receive the photos. Brace yourselves for a loooong entry!

TAKE CARE!
