On my last post, I had posted BoA Full Album Preview and also a preview of the I Did It For Love MV. If you had missed it, watch it here.
The BEST & USA album was finally released on 18 March 2009. I went to CD-Rama to see if they have it in stock on 19 March 2009. Unfortunately, not only that they do not have it in stock, the staff doesn't even know that there's such an album! I thought that the staff were supposed to know such things, such as when it will arrive and such? Goodness!
I had gone back to CD-Rama yesterday, 25 March 2009, Wednesday. There's not sight of the album. It's been more than a week and there's no news at all. How slow could they be? -_-|||
Meanwhile, I have already listened to several full versions of her songs and there were several that I like/love so far. I shall post it below for you all to listen to.
In random order:
Scream is a haunting and dark song. based on the lyrics, it makes me thinks of vampires, werewolves, and other dark creatures that roam the night. After listening to the original version by Monrose and the cover by BoA. I decided that although BoA had done quite a decent job singing it, I think that it would be better if she could sing in a even dark and chilly way like Monrose. It would bring out even better the effect of the song. =D
Scream by BoA
Original Version: Scream by Monrose
Girls On Top was originally a Korean song by BoA about girl power. It was later sang in Chinese and English as well. In her album, BoA, the lyrics was changed to fit the rhythm of the song. However, the meaning of the song remains the same.
Girls On Top by BoA, English
Girls On Top by BoA, Korean
Did Ya by BoA
That's all of the songs I had listened to and like for now. It's amazing but somehow, the more I listened to her album, the more I am starting to like it more and more. I have to admit that all the song are catchy but ballads next time please!
Since Utada Hikaru had also just released her English album, This Is The One, I had managed to sneak in listening to a few of her songs as well. The songs that I like are as below.
Come Back To Me by Utada
This One (Crying like a child) by Utada
Alright, that's all for today. Let's hope that BEST & USA hits our shore more quickly!
P.S I am thinking about getting This Is The One...

Fallen in love with him...yet again.
Friday, 20 March 2009
It's been a long time since I had last saw him, or his friends for that matter. How long was it? Was it months or even years? I had lost count. I used to love him a lot. He was on my mind day and night. All the time in school, I was daydreaming when I should be listening to the lessons, or when I was walking, I was always lost in thoughts. I even dreamed of him when I was sleeping. I still remembered the times when I would gush to my friends, who knew him, about how handsome/cute/cool/funny/wonderful he was. They agreed with me. Sure, he has his flaws, but they were not major ones. If one loves him enough, they will embrace his flaws. Although he's a two-timer, I understood that he had his reasons.
Recently, the thought to revisit everything was so intense that I succumbed to it.
As I pulled out pulled out the Inuyasha VCDs Volume One, Disc One, and popped it into my VCD Player, all the emotions came flooding back to me. The story, how I felt about each character e.g. Miroku is a pervert, the music, I was hooked. I had thought that I had not liked it as much as I had before. I was wrong. Now, I loved it more than ever.
Yes, perhaps there are some flaws in the story itself, such as how people seem to be so readily to accept the long list of Kagome's bizarre illness, and how Kagome and Inuyasha seemed to be screaming each others?name every single second. My brother commented on how he was already over from being a fan of Sesshoumaru and how I am still being so childish, watching Inuyasha. Am I childish? Perhaps I am.
Yet, Inuyasha was a lot of things to me. Without Inuyasha, I wouldn't have gotten to know about Japanese music. Without Inuyasha, I wouldn't have bought a keyboard just so that I could learn to play the wonderful opening/ending theme songs and also the beautiful background music which I had fallen in love in. Without Inuyasha, I wouldn't be interested in orchestral music pieces. Without Inuyasha, I wouldn't be interested in anime and manga. Without Inuyasha, I wouldn't grow to love Cosplay and Lolita. Without Inuyasha, I wouldn't have been willing to part with more than three hundred dollars just to collect all the Inuyasha episodes and movies. Do you see now? Without the existence of Inuyasha, I would have been an incredibly different person from who I am now.
It's astoundingly isn't it? How watching an anime can change and mold a person so much. Believe it for I am a perfect example.
I still remembered the time when I first saw Inuyasha on Arts Central (Okto was named Arts Central then). I think that it was the second episode when Kagome returned to present after being pushed down the well by Yura the Demon of Hair. I was curious about the story, however, I didn't gave it much thought until several weeks (or was it months?) later, I saw Inuyasha again on Arts Central. I was channel surfing then, getting ready to sleep. I saw the part where Kagome jumped into the well in a huff before returning as she remembered as she had forgotten to take her bag with her. I think that it was the episode when Kikyo tried to drag Inuyasha down to hell. I still remembered how I thought about that flash of episode I had seen. It seemed weird, how Kagome forgotten about her anger when she reappeared again in the well, to retrieve her bag. At that time, I thought that the well was a place where it could make a person loses their memory about what happen a few moments ago. I also mused about the stranger company Kagome keeps as well. Kagome is obviously a girl from present but what's with her friends wearing those weird clothes?
Even though I couldn't quite get it then, my curiosity was already well aroused. I decided to splurge on getting every single episodes (and movies when I knew that Inuyasha had movies as well), since I had a bedtime curfew and Inuyasha was broadcast quite late in the night.
How times flies. It's been more than four years since I had fallen in love with Inuyasha. Sine I don't have much things going on now, I have been watching a couple episodes every day, during lunch. I once thought that the magic was lost.
Now, I knew that that my love for Inuyasha is always there.
I suppose it will still last throughout many many years in the future.
After all, I had watched several other anime and the magic was not as strong as Inuyasha. I love all the opening and ending theme songs plus the background music in Inuyasha. I love the story for how it is although I do wish that Naraku should get his retribution soon! For the other anime which I had seen, at most I only like several songs. The story, to me, was not as captivating as Inuyasha.
There were times when I marvel at Kagome's bravery. After all, its everyday a girl from the twenty-first century went back to the past and fight demons, living the life of travelers outside in the wild. Sure, she had Inuyasha at that time. However, it was wise to note that she had only known him for such a little period of time. Besides the "sit" chant, there was nothing else that was stopping Inuyasha from killing her and taking that piece of Shikon no Tama shard away. Besides that, how could she stand living with shower or bath (even if she wanted to, by doing so in the river), sleeping in the wild and always running away and fighting demons! All those creepy stuff she had never seen before and suddenly, boom! She has to deal with them! No doubt, all these experiences had totally strengthened her physically and mentally. I suppose given her condition now, even if when she had some encounter with some robbery or kidnapper back at present time, she wouldn't even flinch. After all, there was no way they could be more frightening than those disgusting demons.
I also love it when Inuyasha follows Kagome to the present. It's just so funny to watch! There was one episode when a robber demanded Inuyasha to get out of his way or he will kill him. Of course the bank robber had no way to know that Inuyasha was much stronger than him. Pissed, Inuyasha just punched his face which knocked him out. The other time when Inuyasha went to Kagome's school to kill the dried demons was pretty hilarious to watch as well. Inuyasha was jealous of how Hojo was declaring his love to Kagome when in reality; both of them were actually performing in a play. Inuyasha just went through the backdrop and crashed onto the stage. When a watermelon demon popped up onto the stage between Kagome and Hojo, Hojo wanted to kill the demon with his sword as he had no clue that it was a real demon and it is capable of killing him, a mere mortal. Kagome, worried about Hojo's safety, urged Inuyasha to kill the demon. Even though Inuyasha could just kill the demon with his claws, he deliberately used Wind Scar to show Hojo that he's the stronger one and wanted him to abolish any ideas he had with Kagome. This resulted in blowing a hole out of the roof. Kagome quickly ended the now messed up play by asking Inuyasha to jumped her away. The oblivious crowd gave them a full standing ovation with cheers as they thought that the effect they had seen was purely special effects and it was the best they had ever seen.
To be honest, it frustrates me that Miroku, Sango, Shippo and Kaede were unable to visit Kagome in present time. How marvelous it would be to be able to see their faces when they saw Japan in its twenty-first century glory! There was no definite ending for Inuyasha anime and movie. I hope that the creators of the anime will keep this in mind. Please let them have a chance to go to twenty-first century and let Naraku be dead once and for all! Please let Kagome be with Inuyasha and Kikyo rest in peace!
I had found an anime music video of Inuyasha by chance at YouTube. I think that it was incredibly well done. It should have more comments and views than that. I decided to share it here. Enjoy!

House Phone Line Is Activated!
The phone line is finally fixed. My house phone line has been down for several days starting from last Friday, 13 March 2009. They cut the line in the morning. We thought that all will be fine when the SingTel Technical Personal come to install the modem. He came at around 4pm+. We expect that it wouldn't take him too long to get it fixed and before the broadband and the phone line will start working as per normal. Alas, that was only what we hope for in our dreams.
Friday the thirteen was not a lucky day for us. He fiddled around for more than an hour and had called for help on his phone for umpteen times. Our Mio Voice was still not working. It turns up that as I quote from him, the exchange was not registered with Asp Neo? and thus, we need to wait for a day before our Mio Voice will start working. He gave me a number and said that if my Mio Voice was not working by Saturday, 14 March 2009, I will be required to call the number for help. When I asked him what time he Mio Voice will start working, it appears to me that he did not know the answer. Thus, I waited until Monday, 16 March 2009, to make the call as I was not sure if the Customer Service Officers do work on a Sunday. I have to borrow the phone from my neighbour to make the call. Luckily for me, she was incredibly willing to lend me her phone while my mother stayed to hat with her. All of the officers were engaged when I called, thus, I had to wait for around ten minutes or more before I was finally connected to an officer. The lady directed me to another number when she heard of my situation. Thus, I have to make another call using the given number. A soothing female mechanical voice greeted me and after I have pressed the right numbers, it directed me to another officer. Thankfully, the female officer gave me two options after she had understood of my plight. One was to book an appointment for the technical man to come again on Tuesday, 17 March 2009, during 11pm to 1pm. After booking the appointment, she proceeded with the second option which was to reset the line even though in her record, it appears to her that our phone line is line? All I had to do after that was to off and on my modem again. The first time I tried to call my house using my hand phone, I still get the weird noise. I decided to try for a second time. A couple seconds later, I heard the sweet sound of both of my house phones ringing. The line is working again! It has been working smoothly ever since that fateful 1.30pm. I hope that it will continue to do so for a very long time...
If you are wondering what happened to the appointment that I had booked, don't worry. I did call to cancel the appointment the minute the Mio Voice was active.
The Mio Voice package which my father had signed up for allows us to have free incoming and outgoing calls. I am happy to say that my ears wouldn't be subject to my mother's nagging on the phone bills! Thank goodness for that! The package also includes features such as call waiting, 3 lines, call forwarding etc. Isn't that cool?

Miracles Do Happen! My New Handphone!
That's right folks! You didn't read the title wrongly. Miracles do indeed happen! I had gotten my new handphone! Guess what? It's new and it's the model and colour I wanted too! Looks like the sun will start rising from the other side now!
My dear friends will certainly understand how hard it is to get anything from my father. Let alone having him pay the full cost of the phone. I am sure that what he have in mind initially was to get $0 phone with 2 years contract. Alas, when I had my heart set on Sony Ericsson W595 that cost $168 last December, he was all against it. Even when I offered to pay the full cost of the phone and I even gave him the cash right on spot! Did he relent? No! Obviously, he wanted a $0 phone. I want to get a $0 phone too. However, I had done some research(reviews, asking around etc) and found out that the phones that were available for $0 at that time were not very reliable. They will shut off or on suddenly and even cutting off right in the middle of a call. What's the use of a $0 phone if it can't even get it's basics right? He waved me away with a promise that he will get me the phone before Chinese New Year if the price of the phone doesn't drop. He broke the promise.
By the time the fifteen days of Chinese New Year were over, I longer held hopes of getting a new phone. At most I will buy a phone for myself when I start work. After all, I had waited for four years for a new phone. It wouldn't hurt me to wait for another three years.
After another few more promises broken later, he said that he will pay for the phone(which cost $198) I wanted and that I will get it on 3rd March 2009, Tuesday.
Amazingly, I did. I found it on my table in the morning when I woke up.
A miracle indeed.
In it, I found a receipt for the phone and a Singtel bill. The phone already had a plastic casing which serves as a protect case to protect the phone from harm. I think he bought it since phone doesn't comes with that for free. That's good. Protecting my phone from scratches and all. A 2GB memory card is already slot into the phone too. =D However, it seems like he had changed the broadband contract to Mio as well. The Mio facilities are fantastic. However, what worries me is that in order for our home to be able to receive calls, we have to keep our modem on all the time. I am worried that our modem will get spoiled easily. If that's so, that means no internet and no phone! We have to go to that place and get it changed ourself too. Such hassle. What if it's night and we have to use the computer to do project? Our schoolwork will get affected if we can't complete the project on time due to the lack of internet!
I shall worry about that later...
I suspect the reason he paid for my phone is so that he can claim that he has no money to buy a laptop for school after paying for my phone. A perfect excuse indeed. Even though he had already did tell me to pay for laptop using my bank money...still, I can't help wondering...
Pictures of my phone!
Good bye Nokia! You have served me well! Hello Sony Ericsson! Work well for me!

Blood of Sídhe
To fight, to live
We two of three bestow this gift
To see, to feel
To stand upon the ancient seal
To know, to feed
To change, l'Sídhe
From earth she comes
From air she breathes
From water, her prison beneath the seas
Fire burn
Desire bleed
As we will, so mote it be.

♥♥♥Happy Valentine's Day♥♥♥
Hi everyone!
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥Happy Valentine's Day!♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
Not that this day is a special day for me. It's another normal, boring day for me. I was supposed to go out with a friend but she backed out at the last minute. I understood that she had no choice but still...I can't help feeling pissed off. As my mother says, there's only a 10% chance to be able to go out without any sudden changes/cancellations with this particular friend.
Anyway, I hope that everyone else will will enjoy this special day thoroughly.
Once again,
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥Happy Valentine's Day!♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
P.S That's a pretty pink isn't it?

The bizarre technologies....The search for a Laptop...Plus Iron Man&Hair Dryer
FINALLY! I had bought the Iron Man VCD,couple days ago, from TS at $12.50, a few dollars cheaper than the selling price $15.90 at CD-RAMA. Indeed, I had watched Iron Man before...however, it was good enough to re-watch tons of times. That's the reason why I am willing to fork out that couple bucks for it. That's true for TRANSFORMER as well, though the VCD seems to be out of stock at TS. Oh well, maybe next time! I re-watched it the very same day I bought it and I enjoyed thoroughly. I even managed to watched the scene after the credits which promised a sequel. I missed that part when I was in the cinemas.
That wasn't the only stuff I had bought recently. I had bought a Philips SalonDry 'n Straight HP 4867 at Harvey Norman today, 5 February 2009, Thursday. It costs me $69.90. I haven't tried it yet. I will after my shower. The salesman said that if it's spoiled, I can get a new one free of charge if I have the receipt. The picture is as below. You can find information of it here. Initially, I was thinking of getting a Braun hair dryer. However, I soon aborted the plan as a better one means an expensive one. Then, I was thinking of getting a Philips SalonDry Professional HP 4992 or Philips SalonDry Control HP 4983 or Philips SalonDry 'n Straight HP 4867. I decided to bought the last option as I decided that I don't need that high watt and I heard that a higher watt means more damage to the hair. Besides, Philips SalonDry 'n Straight HP 4867 has a floating comb which is used for straightening the hair. Thus, I have more options to choose from.
Below is an account of what happened today.
After going to a Polyclinic with my mother, we went to a shopping mall. After shopping around, my mother wanted me to look for clothes so that I could wear to Polytechnic but it's either it doesn't suit me or I don't like it. Oh well. I will try UNIQLO when it opens. I am thinking of getting a pair brown coloured low heeled boots. I had always like boots. This could be the perfect chance for me to get it!
After lunch, we were basically wandering around aimlessly in that mall. I suggested going to Challenger since I just wanted to see the laptops they are selling there. I am going to get a laptop(FINALLY!~)for my studies at Polytechnic. I saw the cute pink laptop I saw someone using at the library. However, the keyboard is white in colour which means that it will get dirty very easily. Among those laptops that I had seen, I love the cute HP Mini 1000 that cost only $799. It light and small enough and it's keyboard is superb! The keys are big and easy to press! That's the thing I loved about it most. I found later at home via internet it's disadvantages which put me off by a little. I took couple of pamphlets before leaving Challenger. We head for Harvey Norman to get that Philips SalonDry 'n Straight HP 4867 when I saw the very same HP MIni 1000selling at the very same price as Challenger. So cute!
Oh well, I got the Philips SalonDry 'n Straight HP 4867 after the very same salesman who had sold us the vacuum cleaner explained to me it's features. After his explanation, I knew clearly that Philips SalonDry 'n Straight HP 4867 is the hair dryer I wanted. Hopefully it will work well and give me shiny beautiful hair with less damage!
Now that the re-account is done, I shall list down the criteria hopefully the laptop I am going to buy will meet.
1) Small-I don't want a big one that might not fit into my bag.
2) Light-So I wouldn't have a heavy bag.
3) Decent features and stuff.
4) Wireless.
5) Great price-This is a hard one to meet.
I think that's all. I don't know much about laptops, computers and all that software and hardware anyway. I don't even know what's a Intel Core 2 Duo...looks like I need to consult my uncles again...>.<|||
I do know what to do with my laptop though. I shall see if there's any Doraemon screen stick on thing(I don't know what's that called) that prevents people for seeing what you are doing with your laptop. I want it mainly for privacy and also out of my love for Doraemon! =D

Post Doraemon: Nobita's New Great Adventure into the Underworld - The Seven Magic Users on aired at Channel 8
The Doraemon 2007 movie, Doraemon: Nobita's New Great Adventure into the Underworld - The Seven Magic Users was aired on Channel 8, 27 January 2009, Tuesday.
Although I do own the the DVD, I made it a point to climb out of my bed at 9.20am and watched the movie at 10am sharp.
After watching it, I certainly had some things to say about. No, not of the movie itself but rather, the missing of some scenes in the movie.
It's quite obvious that somebody had cut away some scenes as they might deemed it no help to continual to the storyline.
I certainly do not think so. Every scene in the movie counts and those missing scenes are actually some funny parts or parts that will lead us to know more about Doraemon.
Yes, I am pissed. Somehow they have to cut away scenes. In other shows I had watched, that happens as well.
Let me list down the scenes and changes I had noticed to the movie you had seen on the television.
1) When Doraemon had that stomachache and went back to the 22th Century, there's actually a scene which Doraemi wanted to drag Doraemon to a capsule that will give Doraemon a thorough body checkup. Doraemon's stomachache had stopped by then, refused to obey and ran back to Nobita's house. From this incident, we can actually learned that Doraemon is afraid of taking a health checkup besides his well known fear of mice.
2) After the proposing the idea of having a magical world to replace reality, Nobita and Doraemon tried to used magic but to no avail. This is a funny scene as both were shouting random curses and were going all for it.
3) On the way to the hill behind Nobita's school to check out the black meteorite, Shizuka marveled at Doraemon's use of magic that enable him to fly. She was actually referring the Take-copter. Doraemon said that the use of Take-copter was not due to his magic but science and technology. Shizuka then laughed at Doraemon for believing in science and technology as they were both superstitions. This was one of the effect of changing the reality world into the magical world.
4) The floating magic chant that was commonly used throughout the movie, differ in Japanese and Chinese. In Japanese version, it was "Jin Ka La Hoi!" but in Chinese version, it was changed to "Chan Ku La Ho!".
That's about the changes and missing scenes I had noted. Perhaps I had missed out some but..oh well, if you wished to watch the entire movie without any missing scenes or advertisements, getting the DVD is the way to go!

You can watch the trailers(there are two version of it) here and here to get an idea what the movie is about. However, there are no subtitles in the trailer. The poster for the Doraemon: Nobita's New Great Adventure into the Underworld - The Seven Magic Users is as below.
What's Doraemon: Nobita's New Great Adventure into the Underworld - The Seven Magic Users about?
It's an adventure to a magical world! A mission to save the Earth led by the seven warriors! What's Nobita up to this time? "If I am able to use magic, I suppose that everything I do will go smoothly." One day, Nobita and Doraemon with the help of Moshimo-box, wishes for the world to become a place where the use of magic is possible. Witchcraft replaces science and technology and everyone makes use of it on their daily lives, except for Nobita, who, like usual, isn't very good at conjuring spells. One day, Doraemon and his friends meet Professor Mangetsu, who studies magic and magical beings, and his daughter Miyoko, and are warned of the dangerous approximation of the "Star of the Underworld" to the Earth's orbit. If this goes on, Earth will be destroyed by the "Star of the Underworld". They yearn to return to their original, peaceful world. However, as the "Star of the Underworld" approaches, frequent earthquakes and other abnormal phenomenon continues to occur throughout Earth. The legendary seven warriors has finally appear! How will Doraemon and Nobita protect our Earth in the midst of the approaching crisis?
*Note*
The summary above is based on a loose translation by me on the summary below and also with the help of Wikipedia. The summary was found on the back of my Doraemon: Nobita's New Great Adventure into the Underworld - The Seven Magic Users DVD box.
Doraemon: Nobita's New Great Adventure into the Underworld - The Seven Magic Users is a remake of the year 1984 Doraemon movie, Doraemon: Nobita's Great Adventure into the Underworld. The trailer for this year 1984 edition can be found here. There are no subtitles in this trailer as well. The poster for the movie Doraemon: Nobita's Great Adventure into the Underworld is as below.
By comparing the movie posters and the trailers. I am sure that you would have noticed the differences by now. The year 2007 edition features better graphic and sound. The colour for the year 2007 edition is also more vibrant. Which one do you prefer more? =D
Although Doraemon: Nobita's New Great Adventure into the Underworld - The Seven Magic Users is said to be a remake of the Doraemon: Nobita's Great Adventure into the Underworld, the storyline for the year 2007 edition is slightly tweaked and some addition of new characters so that when we are watching it, we will be familiar with the characters but we wouldn't know exactly what will happen next. That is indeed a refreshing change and one wouldn't be bored from watching the remake even though he/she had watched the year 1984 edition before.
I owned both movies and if you ask me which one I prefer more, I shall say the year 2007 edition is the one that I love. The storyline is tweaked so that it's more touching and of course, not to forget the lovely graphics and audio quality! ^0^
Remember to watch it on that day!

Once Again...A Brand New Year...Random Thoughts and Blurbs
Tuesday, January 6, 2009. The sixth day of a brand new year. It's supposed to be a school day and yet I am not in school. It feels kind of weird, watching everyone wearing school uniform, coming back and going to school. Yet, I am not a part of it. I guessed that I am still not used to the fact that I am going on to another stage of my life.
I will be changing my hairstyle again. Between 19 January 2009, Monday, to 23 January 2009, Friday, I will be going to the salon on one of the days with my mother for a new haircut and rebond my fringe at the same time. I have decided to grow out my straight blunt fringe for now so that the hairstylist will have more options to choose from when I request for a new hairstyle. If you are wondering what hairstyle I wished to change to, to tell you the truth, I have no idea. I had been looking through my magazines, studying at the different hair lengths and styles, short, medium and long. The hairstyles do fascinate me but I am not really sure what I want. One thing that I am worried of is that the hairstyle might not be suitable for Lolita. >.<
Sometimes I felt like just go for it and cut off my long hair for a medium length or even (GASP!) short hair. The other times, I felt like going for a more punk or rock hairstyle. However, I don't have that courage. LOL!
Even though I don't know the exact hairstyle I want, I had decided on several points to guide the hairstylist to the hairstyle that I will not only like, but love and adore. ^0^
1) Versatile-No matter if it's funky, edgy hairstyle or a sweeter, more demure hairstyle, I am able to achieve it with the hairstyle!
2) Easy to care for-There are some down days and that's when I want to spend less time on my hair and more time on me. I want the hairstyle to look decent or if possible, good even when I am not doing a lot to my hair. Such as just only require some combing. No flat, drably hair please.
3) Suit me-Suit my face type, body shape etc.
4) Unique-More of a special hairstyle that can't be seen everywhere. I love individuality.
I think that's all I can think of now. I will add on when I thought of something new.
Only 19 days to Chinese New Year and 18 days to Chinese New Year Eve! I can't wait for the reunion dinner where lots of delicious food are served! Have you guys bought your new clothes yet? I will be wearing what I had worn to Graduation High Tea to Chinese New Year except that I will replace the knee high socks with the stocking that I had just bought from a Pasar Malam. As for shoes, I am not sure if I should wear my White Lolita Wedge or the BlackxWhite Ballet Flats as seen below.
The White Lolita Wedge cost me $169 while the BlackxWhite Ballet Flats cost me $17.42. I love the White Lolita Wedge as it gives me the added height of 9.5cm and it's really pretty pair of shoe. However, wearing that pair of shoe for prolong time gives me painful feet and I am still not used to wearing such shoes which means awkward walking. I can't even walk well up and down the stairs! I had bought a pair of Insolia inserts but I haven't put them to test yet. Hopefully, it is able to give me added comfort and better balance on that pair of shoes! I must admit that while wearing that pair of BlackxWhite Ballet Flats for a prolong period will give me a slight bruising on the thumb of my feet, it is nothing as compared to the painful feet that the White Lolita Wedge gives me. Another thing I have to consider is that when we go visiting on Chinese New Year, there will be a lot of people going in and out of the house and that means a high chance of people trampling on my pair of shoes. Compared to getting my $169 White Lolita Wedge getting dirty, I would rather let my $17.42 suffer the cruel trampling feet of my relatives. One of the reason that is stopping me from wearing my BlackxWhite Ballet Flats on Chinese New Year itself is that I had worn it to a recent wedding. However, I suppose that the problem can be solved by putting on the white bow shoe clip that I had bought to the flats.
Since Chinese New Year is fast approaching, it's time to take out my pair of White Lolita Wedge and start practicing my walk! I still have 19 days left so who knows! Maybe on that day I might be even able to run on that pair of shoes! O.o
It's January and I ashamed to say that I have not started on finishing clearing the table, cleaning the shelf, bookcase, IKEA cupboard and VCDs/DVDs cupboard! So many things to do and I am just plain lazy to get started! ARGH! Where's my motivation! Come to me!!!!!! I have to! Have to finish it all before school starts! Otherwise goodness know when I am going to start on it when school starts! Maybe I might keep putting it off till many many years later!
Even with so many undone things on my list, I am thinking of adding another item to it. That's get started on sewing. Especially felt food! They are so delectable and delicious looking! Don't believe me? Look at the videos below!
Strawberry-You can download the tutorial here.
"Felt Cuisine - Sushi by Design" by Hiromi Hughes
"Felt Cuisine - A Taste of Italy"
The "Felt Cuisine" Series - Release 1-3 by Hiromi Hughes
I love the free strawberry tutorial by Hiromi Hughes as the instructions are really clear and easy to understand even for a beginner like me. Too bad all the Felt Cuisine books are ebooks and paid by credit card (I don't have one) or I might buy it. Maybe I shall take a look at Kinokuniya, Borders and Popular? Maybe I will try sewing the strawberries. =D
Does anyone know where I can get felt, stuffing and other sewing materials at a cheap price?
I know there's Spotlight at Plaza Singapura but it's items are seriously expensive. T.T Otherwise I will go there since it's a one stop shop and I can save time and money on going to different shops just to get the items I want.
Gosh. What a long post. I was thinking of adding my new year resolutions to it but I guess that I will save it for another time!

4) Unique-More of a special hairstyle that can't be seen everywhere. I love individuality.
I think that's all I can think of now. I will add on when I thought of something new.
Only 19 days to Chinese New Year and 18 days to Chinese New Year Eve! I can't wait for the reunion dinner where lots of delicious food are served! Have you guys bought your new clothes yet? I will be wearing what I had worn to Graduation High Tea to Chinese New Year except that I will replace the knee high socks with the stocking that I had just bought from a Pasar Malam. As for shoes, I am not sure if I should wear my White Lolita Wedge or the BlackxWhite Ballet Flats as seen below.
The White Lolita Wedge cost me $169 while the BlackxWhite Ballet Flats cost me $17.42. I love the White Lolita Wedge as it gives me the added height of 9.5cm and it's really pretty pair of shoe. However, wearing that pair of shoe for prolong time gives me painful feet and I am still not used to wearing such shoes which means awkward walking. I can't even walk well up and down the stairs! I had bought a pair of Insolia inserts but I haven't put them to test yet. Hopefully, it is able to give me added comfort and better balance on that pair of shoes! I must admit that while wearing that pair of BlackxWhite Ballet Flats for a prolong period will give me a slight bruising on the thumb of my feet, it is nothing as compared to the painful feet that the White Lolita Wedge gives me. Another thing I have to consider is that when we go visiting on Chinese New Year, there will be a lot of people going in and out of the house and that means a high chance of people trampling on my pair of shoes. Compared to getting my $169 White Lolita Wedge getting dirty, I would rather let my $17.42 suffer the cruel trampling feet of my relatives. One of the reason that is stopping me from wearing my BlackxWhite Ballet Flats on Chinese New Year itself is that I had worn it to a recent wedding. However, I suppose that the problem can be solved by putting on the white bow shoe clip that I had bought to the flats.
Since Chinese New Year is fast approaching, it's time to take out my pair of White Lolita Wedge and start practicing my walk! I still have 19 days left so who knows! Maybe on that day I might be even able to run on that pair of shoes! O.o
It's January and I ashamed to say that I have not started on finishing clearing the table, cleaning the shelf, bookcase, IKEA cupboard and VCDs/DVDs cupboard! So many things to do and I am just plain lazy to get started! ARGH! Where's my motivation! Come to me!!!!!! I have to! Have to finish it all before school starts! Otherwise goodness know when I am going to start on it when school starts! Maybe I might keep putting it off till many many years later!
Even with so many undone things on my list, I am thinking of adding another item to it. That's get started on sewing. Especially felt food! They are so delectable and delicious looking! Don't believe me? Look at the videos below!
Strawberry-You can download the tutorial here.
"Felt Cuisine - Sushi by Design" by Hiromi Hughes
"Felt Cuisine - A Taste of Italy"
The "Felt Cuisine" Series - Release 1-3 by Hiromi Hughes
I love the free strawberry tutorial by Hiromi Hughes as the instructions are really clear and easy to understand even for a beginner like me. Too bad all the Felt Cuisine books are ebooks and paid by credit card (I don't have one) or I might buy it. Maybe I shall take a look at Kinokuniya, Borders and Popular? Maybe I will try sewing the strawberries. =D
Does anyone know where I can get felt, stuffing and other sewing materials at a cheap price?
I know there's Spotlight at Plaza Singapura but it's items are seriously expensive. T.T Otherwise I will go there since it's a one stop shop and I can save time and money on going to different shops just to get the items I want.
Gosh. What a long post. I was thinking of adding my new year resolutions to it but I guess that I will save it for another time!

My perfect phone?
The wedding dinner went quite well. Perhaps some people might have something to say about our clothes but who cares. Most of the time, our bodies are hidden from view by the mighty table that holds all the food. Food was decent but tad cold since it was left somewhere around after it was cooked, waiting for the feast to begin.
I had to say that my aunt was gorgeous that night. The dress was a very pretty pure white with a red belt. Not revealing in any way but it still show her curves beautifully. Her makeup was kept light but nicely done too. Thumbs up! =D
There are some failure as well...such as wearing frocks or gowns that are not suitable for their body types. I shall not comment more on it. =X
I had been looking for a new hand phone for quite some time. Around more than a month or so ago, my dad informed me that I could use his contract renewal as an opportunity to get a new hand phone. I had my current phone for around three to four years. I had owned three hand phones(including my current hand phone) till this date. All of them are Nokia, outdated (no longer available on Nokia website) and second hand. Two of the hand phones that I owned are those that doesn't even have colour screen and are those green screens when light up. My current phone is not as outdated as the two other but this phone does not have blue tooth, infrared, mega pixel, flash light, capability to store songs etc.
No doubt, when I saw my brother using his Sony Ericsson W850i (which he had gotten two years ago) , I was envious. Finally, after a long long wait, I am able to get a totally new phone of my choice! Not a second hand one!
Searching for a phone that is good, cheap and with a good plan proved to be difficult. It was either that the phone was too expensive, or the plan is quite good but the phone is not. How do I judge whether the phone is good? Well, I do so by reading reviews from users and editors. Some of the phones requires me to spend a couple hundred bucks even with plan and some, requires me to trade in a phone worth $100 in order to get that $0 deal. As I had mentioned, my hand phones are so outdated that I am not sure if they are even worth $50 altogether!
My brother kept encouraging me to get an Apple iPhone... -_-||| Hello? Just by looking at the price is enough to make me faint.
I am planning to get either a Sony Ericsson Cyber-shot or Sony Ericsson Walkman Phone or Nokia. I am even considering phones that are more for business men but it must be by Sony Ericsson or Nokia.
Is it THAT hard to just get a phone I want?

What to wear to a wedding? The hardest part of being a female....
It's been around 5 years since I had last attended a wedding dinner. Needless to say, I didn't have much appropriate clothes to choose from. After some pondering, I have to settle on my one and only one piece dress. Unfortunately, the pair of shoes which I used to pair the dress with had worn out. I had to pair it with the whiteXblack ballet flats that I own. It was not a coordination that I like but I just have to do with it. Initially, I would like to achieve more of a boho result but I do not have a suitable pair of shoe. Looks like it will be boho with flats. -_-||| I have to get a pair of suitable shoes next time.
My mother asked me to dress her. That is a challenge considering what dominate her wardrobe are T-shirts, denim, shorts and tank tops. I have to cracked my head to think of a suitable coordination. Gosh.
The worst part of this whole thing is that as my mother and I are female, at a suitable age to be expected to dress well. This got to be the hardest part to do since we do not have the right clothes!*sigh*
I hope that we will not be considered as being dressed too inappropriately when we get there and find a sea of people all dressed up. Well, at least I can take some comfort in the fact that most of them are strangers to us and vice versa. >.<
I have less than an hour left to prepare...so long.

Back to....Art?!
It's been a long while since I had sat down at my table(since it was a rubbish dump there.)and just drew anything in my sketchbook or on any paper for that matter.
Finally with my desk cleared(full report with pictures next time)with only random magazines and BABY paper bag left lying on the table, I have enough space to draw again.*Though I wish to get the magazines and BABY paper bag off the table first*
Sure, I had done random drawings, sketches, doodles while I am bored in school but most of the drawings doesn't really count as they are either not complete or really bad. -_-|||
Only two of the drawings I had done in school are those that I will acknowledge. One was done in my blue notebook(magic school uniform girl with two cute follower), the other was done at the very last page of my Mathematic paper(girl's face half covered by hair). Unfortunately, the first was lost some where in my pile of books(let's hope that I can find it) and the other, was handed up to my teacher and never to be seen again. T.T It sucks since I really loved that piece of drawing. Some of you might laugh at my drawings but hey, I never said that I am good at drawing! I am still learning...and I suppose I will still be many years ahead.
One of the reason for wanting to start again, was when I uncovered the forgotten art site that I really love when I was deleting the broken links. It's Zindy-Zone and have a look at her artworks when you have time. I really love her drawing style and they are so lifelike! How I wish that I am able to draw well!
I was wondering what to buy with my Popular 20% Coupon. Now I know. I had threw away tons of my drawing stuff such as drawing pencils, colour pencils and this is a great time to restock. =D
Alright, I guess that that's all for today! ~\(=^0^=)/~
OH! I almost forgotten!
Happy Birthday Adelyn!!!!

Minor Changes Made To This Blog......
If anyone noticed, besides the new addition of a long due new post, I had made some minor changes around this blog.
I had removed the broken links in the 'shi...links' part. I define broken link as links that led to now where or to a 'This blog has been removed/does not exist' message. Blogs that have been declared closed or neglected (such as not posting for more than a year) are removed as well. The 'shi...links' part is now cleaner with accessible links so you wouldn't be going to a dead end with every click! =D
Besides that, I had also changed the song from 千年之恋(Thousand Years of Love) to Beautiful by Christina Aguilera.
Soon, I will be editing my Wish List as well...for those kind folks out there, how about getting me any one item(or all if you wish to) from my Wish List as a Christmas present? =P

Information below ripped from here along with some editing of my own.
After reading that particular post, I was torn. $269 for a Lucky Pack! That's consider cheap when it's concerning branded Lolita clothes.
Let's say Person A is going to get Type 1 and all the stuff inside is by Baby, The Stars Shine Bright(BTSSB).
The items Person A gotten are:
All prices are in Singapore Dollars.
1 x Cutsew(132★741)----------Estimated Cheapest Cost:$83
1 x Skirt(132★727)-----------Estimated Cheapest Cost:$188.61
Socks(132★017)---------------Estimated Cheapest Cost:$20.78
Headdress(132★008)-----------Estimated Cheapest Cost:$46.35
TOTAL ESTIMATED COST---------------------------------:$338.74
SAVED------------------------------------------------:$69.74
This cost is just the cheapest items of BTSSB! What if you get the expensive items? You will save much more and maybe even couple hundreds of dollars! However, I only have $554 and if I do buy a lucky pack, I will only have $285 left! What if the items inside are not suitable for my Graduation High Tea or not my type? Gosh. Just by voicing out my thoughts here, I have decided that I will not buy the Lucky Pack. It's too much of a risk since everything is jumbled up and I don't wish to spend $269 on the possibility of getting something that I don't like.
There's several problems that I have encountered on getting the clothes I want for Graduation High Tea which is on Thursday,13 November 2008.
1)There's no whitexwhite lace socks in store at Black Alice!
2)I just realized that wearing black pannier under a light coloured skirt will show! I need to get/borrow a white pannier and I don't have enough money/time to order!
3)I need more money!
4)The pair of shoes which I want might not be able to fit me!
OH NO!
I should have thought of these sooner!~
Only 4 more days to Graduation High tea and yet so many problems! O.o
ARRGHH!
*Panicks away*
