    Disneyland Hongkong Part 2!

    Day 2 in Disneyland Hongkong!

    Here's what I first saw while groggily walking down to the main lobby to meet the others for breakfast:



    It's a Princess Room that easily trumps MY Princess Room!!!!!!!!!

    Guess who's inside? PRINCESSES!!

    Or little girls being a princess for a day at least...



    Check out all the lucky bitches dolling up! LOL!

    Parents are waiting around patiently as their daughters pick a Disney Princess to be for the day...



    OHHHH WHY WASN'T I SO LUCKY WHEN I WAS A KID?!!?!



    Which Disney Princess is your favourite?








    I actually can't decide... Most people's favourites are either Ariel or Belle, but I have gripes with them both...

    Ariel... Do not like red hair and her red hair clashes with her pink gown!! She should have worn green (Jasmine's colour) with red lipstick. HAHAHA! Also, I like her character coz she is quirky and funny, but she is emo and ditched her family at age 16 for a dude! *rolls eyes* But at least she picked like a RICH dude! Clever!

    Belle's face is pretty but she is a brunette! Sorry but I like blondes! PLUS her dress is yellow, which is... bleah.

    So I guess my favourite is Sleeping Beauty, who is blonde and wears a pink dress... But Cheesie says she got weird fringe and generic face! Which is true!

    Like this how??

    Tragic.

    I forced Mike to pick a favourite and he said Jasmine coz she wears very little clothes and looks like she'd do 'naughty things'. -.- The kinda naughty things you cannot do to Ariel (coz you know, fish), which is why he didn't pick her despite her also wearing very little clothes. -_-

    Men. Full of nonsense.

    Snow White's the ugliest (Princesses should never have short hair!!!!!!) and Cinderella looks like she also has short hair + she wears blue!

    I know I should pick the Chinese girl but Mulan is mad fugly plus is not a real princess lor!

    Pocahontas also fugly... Every girl there looks like they would be a good shopping buddy but she just looks like she wants to hunt wild boar.

    OKOK here's my ideal princess:

    Ariel's face with her blue-green eyes. Aurora's lip colour. Belle's hair style in platinum blonde (not the yellow kind like Aurora's). Belle's dress in pink (love the gloves)... Slightly lighter pink than Ariel's... LOL I AM SO NITPICKY!!

    Ok enough of this...


    BREAKFAST!!!





    My food...


    You didn't think I was gonna eat so little, did you?

    Yong tau fu in laksa soup... And customised ingredients. Love!



    Here's grumpy Ming...

    I'm sure breakfast cheered him up though... The food was fantastic and I was startled by the IMMENSE selection!

    Here:


    Salad, fruits and drinks...


    Bacon, sausages etc...


    Toasts, whether french or not, waffles...
    hash browns... pancakes...


    The breads...




    Dim sum


    And your yong tau fu with as many mushrooms as you want in it! Yums!


    With Woody accompanying you



    All set with full bellies for our Disneyland adventure!!!!




    Me posing with their lounge's sign...


    With the girls!

    Can you please see what Cheesie is wearing...

    SHORT SHORTS!!

    So mad cold... She's siao lor!! LOL



    Little mermaid rooms


    BUT FIRST, before we leave, Cheesie and Redmummy said that there is a Disneyland store in Disneyland Resort itself!

    Most of the Disney stores sell more or less the same items, but this means we get to shop in a relatively empty store!! SHIOK!



    Here it is...


    And we girls found clip-on ears!!!!!

    Pooh, piglet, marie cat, stitch, minnie... Etc! Very cute and only about 10 sgd for a pair!!!!!

    Cheesie pointed out my tee's colour is very much like a particular character's colour... So guess which one I bought?

    I ISH POOH BEAR!!!!!

    And there's Cheesie with Minnie ears to match her clothes and Audrey in Stitch coz she loves Stitch!

    HOW CUTE ARE WE?? :D :D :D

    We were just squealing with excitement while putting on our ears together in the Disney store's mirror... I think the boys were very irritated, lol.



    BUT LOOKIE! Weird creature with 4 ears!



    The ears are incredibly detailed. See the cute lil bumblebee on mine??

    Stitch ears even have little torn portions on it coz Stitch's ears are tattered. And a Hawaiian flower too!



    Loves it! I was so happy to be going to Disneyland with a buncha girls who can dress up with me! :D



    Pooh for the day



    And we enter Disneyland again, this time in daylight. :)

    I love this signboard btw.



    Here's Audrey pretending to be Stitch...


    Main Street


    Windswept Mike on Main street


    Check out the char siew paos! Almost too cute to eat





    Mike asked me what an apothecary is I said, "It's a place where they sell potion ingredients like unicorn horns and beetle eyes... Don't you read Harry Potter?"

    Actually I'm not even sure if my information is correct. LOL





    Here's Estee with her Marie Cat paws coz those were the only gloves she could buy, and her hands were cold!

    She's even more hero than Cheesie ok? Despite me warning her it was only 9 degrees at night, she only brought with her:

    1 skin-thin cardigan (she's wearing Ming's jacket in this photo), flouncy summer dresses, and... 1 footwear: Birkie slippers.

    She said she wasn't cold, only her hands were!

    I swear Estee was the ONLY person I saw in Disneyland with open-toed footwear.



    TOMORROWLAND!


    Here's Mike lifting what looks like Saturn up with bare hands!



    Estee Marie Cat struggling, about to be crushed...



    AND I, MIGHTY BLOGGER, IS THE STRONGEST OF THEM ALL!

    I carry the weight of the world with a smile and only 1 pinkie finger!!!!!



    And we queue for the Buzz Lightyear ride...


    VERY FUN!



    Here's Buzz looking really realistic as the robot inside him moves and talks...

    Mike was so fascinated. *cough engineer geek cough*



    Check out our "targets"!



    Everyone has a gun on their ride so you can aim lasers at aliens and shoot! At the end of it, your score will be recorded. Mike took his shooting very seriously.

    I had like super low points coz I was busy snapping. LOL



    Here's Tim and Audrey. Both are shooting. OMG I AM SO PUNNY!



    O HAI! It's me with a Pooh bear balloon!!


    Muah!


    And we enter what I thought was the funniest part of Disneyland...



    The Stitch show!!!!!!!!

    We had to queue for some time to get inside (during which we were bitching about other bloggers guffaw guffaw), and I thought it was just some kiddy show and might not be worth my time.


    BUT IT WAS SO WORTH IT.


    Ok here's what happens inside:

    Stitch is on a bigass screen and there is a guy, I presume, behind the screen, voicing Stitch! (Very realistically too)

    This Stitch can interact with the audience! Yes, they managed to program it such that the animation changes depending on what response Stitch wants to make!

    OK I'm gonna start describing what happened so if you are planning to go to Disneyland, don't highlight the words coz it contains SPOILERS!

    Highlight to read: Start [ OMG it was so funny!

    Stitch picked out a guy from the crowd... His name was like Orb or Ugg or something... Alright let's call him Orb.

    Looking at Orb, Stitch said, "You look very familiar, did I see you before?"

    Orb said no, and Stitch said "Are you sure?"

    After a pregnant pause, Stitch exclaimed, "I KNOW! You are an escaped space prisoner!"

    Orb said he wasn't and Stitch said he has evidence... And Stitch produced a poster of Orb, with a hastily shot picture of Orb... Saying wanted for $10,000 or something, is a wanted prisoner!

    Super funny lah! We all like fell over our seats! Anyhow accuse the audience of being space prisoners!

    Later on a villian appeared on Stitch's monitor (he is in a spaceship) and said he is gonna kill Stitch for stealing his spaceship!

    Stitch said, "It wasn't me, Orb did it!"

    OMG I NEVER LAUGHED SO HARD CAN??

    Up till THIS day, Mike and I are still saying "Orb did it" whenever we want to shirk responsibilities!

    It was mad fun for both adults and kids. It's really amazing how entertaining Disney managed to make this with just a giant screen and a voice! ] END.


    Camwhoring time in the toilet!





    Marie Cat's tail I bought as a charm for my camera! :D



    We girls are terrible! Poor guys waiting outside for us. LOL



    And to the Pooh bear ride... I'm excited coz I'm Pooh for the day!!



    Used the Fastpass with Cheesie's advice



    Even their malfunctioning machines are cute...







    Everything was so colourful and peaceful inside...


    More random shots...






    Me with Pegasus





    Mike with the castle...


    Me with the castle...

    And then we discovered that the other side of the castle is even chioer!



    Here's my prince...

    Since the name Prince Charming is taken,
    I shall call him Prince Shagadelic.







    With Prince Shagadelic in front of our 26 bedroom castle with 20 attached bathrooms and 30 horses.

    WHAT? DREAM ALSO CANNOT IS IT??




    Adventureland!

    It does look very adventurous.



    And here's a guy doing magic on the floor!



    Drawing Disneyland characters with a
    giant paintbrush disguised as a broomstick!





    A short ferry to Tarzan's humble leafy abode.





    How fun! I've always wanted to build a treehouse...
    It's Enid Blyton's fault.







    Great view from up top...

    And I started to get tired so we called it a day from there!!



    Saw a float parade on the way back...

    Of course we went for more rides and shows than this but I didn't take photos of some of them!!

    We rested for a while and it was time for our dinner buffet at Hollywood Hotel, another Disney themed hotel.







    Everything decorated Hollywood style



    AND NOMS!!!!!!!!!!!!

    OMG!


    The buffet was fantastic!!!!!!!!!





    My first plate...

    I'm totally salivating now as I'm remembering how the food tasted...

    Their beef was SUPERB (raw enough, and tender!) and the potato gratin was so creamy and nice!

    All kinds of selection for any types of cuisine you want:




    Japanese



    Chinese



    More chinese



    Italian



    Indian



    Beef wellington: SO GOOD



    Seafood with unlimited Alaskan crab legs... Huge.





    Desserts and a real ice cream machine...



    Tim being happy with the meal!!!!!



    AND IT'S SHOPPING TIME!!!!!!!





    And here I am, wearing a Minnie
    satin pink cap and ready to go crazy shopping!


    Once we hit mainland Hongkong it was so chockful of stuff to see and touch that I didn't bother to snap any pictures!

    Actually after snapping so much in Disneyland I was kinda sick of taking pictures already. -.-

    I bought like super a lot of things but up till today I have not unpacked (how lazy am I???) so no pics of the hauls!!

    Us girls met up with Suet Li, who is Malaysian but was in Hongkong for exchange. She was damn awesome and brought us around... To the best malls! :D :D :D





    The Disney guys gave us a kaleidoscope...


    Pretty!

    And for breakfast, lookie who came to camwhore with us?

    .
    .
    .

    .

    .
    .



    It's Minnie!




    Wonder if she saw my hair ties were her gloves?

    (And that's me without make up except for eyelash extensions... And frumpy breakfast clothes. It's quite bad, even photoshop cannot save me. T-T)

    And you'd think that they are just mascots, but I think Disney made a lot of effort to hire the people inside!

    You know why I say that? Coz not only are they super good with poses, they manage to give life and character to the costumes so well, with only body gestures! (Since facial expression cannot change, and cannot talk)

    So anyway Minnie made us all laugh like crazy coz she made a beeline for Mike, who was sitting down eating his breakfast, acting cool and ignoring us girls camwhoring with Minnie...


    AND SHE DEMANDED A KISS FROM HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!




    LOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!


    After this kiss she made a shy gesture (looks down, clasps hands, twists around)... and she looked in Mickey's direction (he is quite far away), and made the "sheesh" hand sign!!!!!


    HILARIOUS OR WHAT!!



    And the story has part 2 coz here comes Mickey himself!





    With Cheesie and Suet Li...



    And so I told Mickey,


    "Mickey, did you know your girlfriend was
    flirting with my boyfriend just now??"




    It was sooooooooo funny coz Mickey acted angry and went to confront Mike, hands on hips and all!!

    It was all good after a while...


    LOL

    And then Mickey walked to me and demanded a kiss to get back at Mike!!



    Super duper hilarious!!

    He also signaled to us not to tell Minnie about the rendezvous. HAHAHA

    After this Cheesie and I went shopping some more with Suet Li...

    When we came back to the hotel, guess who we saw??

    .

    .
    .

    Cinderella!!!!!!!


    Omg another hilarious story...

    Basically she was in a rush to go somewhere but obviously Cheesie and I were mad enthu to take pictures with her right??

    So we were like, "Please, take a photo with us!!"

    And while maintaining her princessy megawatt smile, she said in this pleasant, slow (albeit fake) voice, "I am sorry, I can't, I really got to go..."


    LIKE SUPER FLOATY AND DREAMY VOICE LAH!!!!!!!!!


    And I was like, "WAIT WAIT JUST ONE SHOT!!! You are ruining our vacation if you go away!!" (HAHAHA YES I DID SAY THAT)

    She just continued walking away while looking apologetic (and still smiling all the while)



    SO LAO NIANG WHIPPED UP MY
    CAMERA, WENT TO HER SIDE AND
    CAMWHORED WITH HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!







    HAHAHAHAHHA!!



    Major buay paiseh!!




    I could tell that she was super annoyed with us (by us I mean me) for not letting her go but all the while she just had to keep smiling and talk to us in that gentle demure voice!!!!!!!


    LAUGH UNTIL I DIE!!


    Poor Cinderella got forced by some random chick to camwhore... Somemore she's not even my favourite Princess!!


    LOLOLOL Oh that was fun. How many of you pissed off a Disney Princess today?




    And Sleeping Beauty also walked past...
    With Mulan in the background.





    HAHAHA JUST KIDDING IT'S SLEEPING BEAUTY'S BODYGUARD LOLOL

    The hand gestures are so princessy and funny HAHAHAHA

    And Cheesie is right, she does have a funny fringe...


    OK THAT'S ALL!!!!!!



    I think if anyone wants to visit Disneyland they should definitely stay in Disneyland hotel!!

    It's all part of the package and it's like the magic doesn't leave you... And can snap pictures with the mascots without queuing up too! :)

    Oh oh oh and also they have an inhouse pianist who can play any Disney song you request!! I made him play Beauty and the Beast for me. :DDD



    Here's what Disney said to me, and I'm now saying it to you:





    Hehehehe kthxbye!

    Crystal's Best Friend

    Today I got one of the weirdest FB message from one of the weirdest people I've ever heard from:





    Because you are obviously bonkers.

    And you don't use 's correctly.


    I don't understand why she has to keep asking me how Disneyland was. Is it that important? It's all on my fucking blog wtf.


    p/s: No, I don't know Crystal Siew at all, ok? That's why it's funny, coz she (Miu) is so random!

    p/p/s: What's all this about me being MEAN?? I mosaic-ed her face and name what! Not like anyone knows who this is... WTF. State opinion about an unknown person also cannot??


    UPDATE: OMG! So many of your moralistic fucksticks reading me! Yabbering this and that about how old this chick and is all... Listen: WHO GIVES A FUCK WHETHER SHE IS 6 or 60??

    The point is I didn't state her name or post her photo!


    For all you know she could be a fictional character I created... Then you'd feel really stupid now, won't you??

    And besides, when I posted this, I didn't even click on her profile. I didn't know how old she was, but even if I did, I doubt it would have changed a single thing.

    It beats the hell out of me how so many of you saints managed to find her fb profile.

    Fucking ironic too, if you ask me.

    If this annoys you, if you think that I'm abusing my 'power' and that I'm mean-spirited, you know what to do don't you?

    STOP FUCKING READING MY BLOG!

    But instead, there you are, reading, commenting, and even going on fb to search for this chick's fb profile and nitpicking shit. Ridiculous.

    And some of you are pitying this supposedly poor girl. Save your condescending sympathy. There are much sadder beings out there than a girl who was called bonkers by a blogger she pestered, ok?? And since when did you care so much? Go channel your energies to consoling people whose families died in natural disasters can?

    There are over 3 billion blogs out there... Surely there are a few that are up to your high moralistic standards. So go read those, and stop trying to change me or tell me what to do. It's not gonna work.

    Disneyland Hongkong Part 1!

    Thanks to Disneyland Hong Kong for sponsoring this super fun trip for us bloggers!

    Well, they are not vetting or paying for this so I guess this is a normal post and not an advert! :D


    To start with... THIS TRIP WAS SUPER FUN!!!!!!!!!!!

    Like everyone said it was so enjoyable!


    In fact, I don't remember the last time I went to Disneyland, in LA, as being even CLOSE to this fun! (Post here)


    DEFINITELY one of my best holidays...



    I guess it's coz of the company... Everyone was nice, funny, and I especially LOVE the girl bloggers coz they are all so vain, camwhorish and bimbotic! Like me!! HAHAHA

    Ok lah I guess Estee, Ming's girlfriend, is the mature one but the rest of the girls are all decidedly childish (I mean that in a good way), even Redmummy who is a mother of 2!! LOL

    Us girls were being so frivolous wearing Disney merchandise and shopping and snapping like SHITLOADS of photos...

    We went to Hongkong for 2.5 days and Day 1 and 2 were for exploring Disneyland... Day 2's night and Day 3 were for SHOPPING!

    It was mad awesome.

    About 200 photos so I'm splitting the post into 2 days...




    Touch down at Hongkong's airport... Can you spot my luggage?



    Mike panicking while waiting for his



    With the SG bloggers Ming and Estee


    In the cab

    I snapped this shot and I told everyone I'm going to caption it "In the cab". They all agreed it's a snappy caption and that I put loads of effort into blogging.



    Reached Disneyland Hotel!!!

    LOVE IT! The place is decorated rather old-school Victorian style... Classy and grand but not too stuffy. And you know... With cartoons!

    Put down our luggage and went for lunch with the Msian bloggers...



    Ketchup Mickey kinda looks like boobs



    There they are, already snapping shots!!


    From left: Redmummy, Cheesie, Audrey and Tim (holding cam).


    Bloggers very competitive one ok everything also must snap photos of!



    Ming and Estee pondering over what to eat



    Cute kids are everywhere!



    Here are the girls' food





    I just ordered fries with what looks like freshly whipped homemade mayo! Yums



    Cheesie and Audrey camwhoring with my camera!





    Decorations in Xmas themes



    Our receptionist



    And here's our room!!

    There's two queen sized beds lah! Perfect for families but one bed was completely unused in my case...

    NO WAIT IT WAS USED! To pile all my shopping on! MUAHAHA



    Guess what the telly was showing?



    Even the sheets are Alice in Wonderland themed!




    Castled headboard


    Me being silly while Mike showers... :)



    So cute! All these can be brought back home if you wished to!







    The various dwarves are so useful!



    Here are the bedroom slippers in Baby, Mama and Papa sizes! Middle one's missing coz I was wearing it! Same thing for bathrobes.



    In case you didn't know what it was.



    That's it for the rooms!

    We adjoin downstairs to meet the Disney Reps for a meeting!

    They were oh-so-generous and ordered shitloads of High Tea-ish stuff for us! Sorry lah I dunno what these are called...









    Tray after tray arrived... Totally cannot finish lor!



    Me with ribbon hair! I thought it could perhaps pass off as Mickey-ish ears??





    And here's our map for later!


    It's huge! I know a lot of you say that the Disneyland in Hongkong is tiny, and it is, in comparison to the ones in Florida or LA... But so what?

    I still think it's bloody big!



    And I'm not just saying that coz I went on a sponsored trip.


    It's big enough to occupy you for 1 whole day, that's for sure... Which is more than enough for me lor.

    Doesn't mean smaller = not enjoyable what!




    Here's a group pic of us + Disney reps (in black, back row)!



    We were all given this little spectacles, which is actually called a Hologram Viewer (according to Cheesie, wrong blame her)!


    IT IS SUPER MAGICAL I TELL YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


    See the little heart at the bottom?

    When you look thru the 'lens', all the lights around you will magically form a HEART SHAPE OMGWTFBBQ!!


    It's true!



    Here's the best picture I could take via my camera, but when you look through it, it is VERY distinct!

    It makes everything around look SO GORGEOUS!

    And the reason why we were given this is coz the park is very well lit up at night, and when you see FIREWORKS through the hologram viewer, it's a completely surreal experience!

    Comes in Snowflake, Heart and Snowmen patterns! And can only get this from DISNEY!




    Redmummy dangerously camwhoring on the road...
    Bus almost knocked her down lor



    Mike and I



    With the cute Malaysian girls... Why are they so cute omg!



    With Redmummy too! She looks damn young but is 34!



    And we arrive in DISNEYLAND!!!!!!






    So excited must camwhore





    Here's Mickey riding what looks like the Twitter fail whale



    Tickets!



    The dudes checking our bags...

    SERIOUSLY OK... This guy's name is JOKER.

    I saw his name tag said Joker, so I asked him if his name is really Joker and he said yes!!!!!!!!

    It's not only funny but terribly ironic for a security guard whose job is really kinda nothing like a joke. LOL!!!!!!!




    MICKEY!




    Part of what makes Disneyland so magical is that there is music EVERYWHERE you go!!!!!

    (AND NO SMOKERS HAHAHAHA!)

    Like no matter which part of the park you are at, happy music is always piping and lifting your mood!



    This choral group was singing underneath the crazy tall Xmas tree!





    Audrey hologramming



    Awwww so cute!!

    I had to FORCE him to let me take a pic of him with Stitch on his head...



    And it was time for the Xmas parade!!!!



    One of the pretty parade girls...



    And the Xmas tree flashes different sets of lights!! Very breath-taking...



    Nicely sets the mood for Xmas





    Mike's hood flew up!!



    KISS KISS!!





    With the girls!


    And we enter Small World or whatever it's called lah...







    So pretty omg



    Figurines gliding out of the castle...



    Chio backdrop!



    Us on the ride... We got a pink car! So lucky!

    The ride was very peaceful and "It's a Small World" kept playing over and over again in many different languages!

    We went from continent to continent... Quite fun to spot the different nationalities!











    O hai! Didn't know you worked in Disneyland...



    Me to Mike: "BABY! It's Texas!"



    The special Xmas theme with Lil Bo Peep and her... Duck?










    And done! After this we go on the Tea Cups!





    Spinning round and round!

    Once the guards let our batch in everyone started to RUN for their favourite tea cup...

    It was ridiculous... I tried to get in two different tea cups but each time was cut off by some rude kid rushing in first!

    Some other kid and I were then running for the last cup so I ran damn fast and elbowed the bitch out of the way!

    That's for disrespecting your elders stupid girl! Hmpf! Anyway Cheesie saw this disgraceful scene and laughed at me.

    WHAT?

    I got snatched TWICE of what was rightfully mine ok! I came first and they robbed me of my cups!

    Nasty rude kids. Ahem.


    And finally, it's time for the FIREWORKS!!!

    Everyone was so excited...



    Ridiculously chio castle...





    AND BOOM!!!!!!



    So pretty!!




    My favourite was to watch the colourful fireworks (such as the above) with the hologram viewer!!!!!!!

    Cheesie managed to snap a really good shot of how it will look like so I stole a piccie from her blog:


    Credits Cheeserland


    Here's how it looks like on a colourful Xmas tree so imagine how the fireworks would look like! MAD MAD MAD MAD MAD CHIO!






    After many failed shots of the fireworks (obviously not posted up since FAIL), I decided to just enjoy it instead of frantically snapping photos with the blasted (punny hahaha) Fireworks mode on my Lumix which kinda sucks...


    It was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO AWESOME.


    Of ALL the fireworks shows I've EVER seen in my entire this, this Disney one is BY FAR THE BEST!!!!!!!


    Not only is it shooting off aside a gorgeous castle, there was also beautiful music...

    Music from all our favourite cartoons that filled us with wonder and hope and whatever good feelings there are when we were kids...

    And the HOLOGRAM VIEWER OMG!

    Disney oughta pay the inventor like a zillion dollars coz watching fireworks with the hologram viewer just makes it SO MUCH MORE FUN!!!!!


    For a long moment you just forget about all the nasty stuff in the world like that weird itch or your balding problem... It's just beauty and magic and glitter and hologram chioness!!!!!


    It was nice...................

    So nice............



    I'm actually still having Disney withdrawal symptoms.

    Oh well I'd go back there soon!


    Part 2 will be coming up shortly!! It's even longer than this entry -_-


    :D :D :D :D


    I had a really fun time so anyone who didn't are either grumpy prudes or just didn't go with the right company/in the right weather. I love Disneyland (any Disneyland in the world for that matter) and will delete spoilsport comments which say it's not fun!


    Stop spoiling shit for others goddamn it!


    Linkies for my travel buddies:

    CHEESIE - REDMUMMY - AUDREY - TIM - MING - ESTEE


    Mike is the most shiok of all coz he went on free trip and doesn't need to blog about it!

    Disneyland!!

    Haven't even unpacked my last luggage and I'm off again!!!

    This time Mike and I are going to Disneyland in HONG KONG!!

    My first time going there (DL in HK), so I'm quite excited!

    The last time I went to disneyland in LA I had a crazily smashing time. Only regret I had was not buying more souvenirs! This time imma go crazy.

    So yup.

    Don't think I'd be updating here for the next 3 days, except for maybe twitter or POTM if I manage to find free wifi.

    Everytime I go to HK I feel so happy that I'm a Cantonese and a relatively fluent one! *blabbers in Cantonese* there. I just proved it.

    V sian that the weather is quite cold though. Mike is ultra pleased about it. -_-

    Ok see ya guys in 3 days!

    Xoxo

    Butthead girl

    Nothing better to do...


    Not sure if you guys have seen this, but I came across this unfortunate picture of an unfortunate girl who looks unfortunately like Butthead from the ugliest cartoon ever, Beavis and Butthead!




    Epitome of beauty


    Her innocent drinking photo has been splashed across a lot of humour websites, with Butthead beside her for comparison!!

    (And I got the pic from Collegehumor.com, it's not done by me ah!)

    She is really suay lor... The nose so long and no chin... Then never mind, go and draw eyebrows until so hideous!!!


    So I decided to photoshop her!!!!

    The Nuffnang Regional Blog Awards 2009 + Random piccies!

    Pictures from eons ago!!

    Had dinner with Mike at Chili's (Tanglin Mall) finally! He was sooooooo excited about eating USA food!!

    To our pleasant surprise, the service there was fantastic even though it was full! (I supposed that's also mirroring the states coz service there is always awesome as people have to work for tips!)

    The food was fab, ribs were tender, and the drinks are huge + unlimited refills, just like the real Chili's! Nice.



    Here's our queso with unlimited corn chips. I think the one I had in texas had meat bits in it, which was nicer, but still taste pretty authentic USA!



    Cheesy goodness



    My crazy huge baby back ribs with 2 side dishes chosen by me :D





    Mike's fajitas or whatever they are spelt. I don't really like Mexican food.


    Abrupt end on this thread.


    Rozz invited 10 of her friends for a nice dinner at her friend's new restaurant...

    Erm it's Indian fusion food. Krish at 9 Rochester Park!





    Joan and Gillian... Yes that girl on the right shot me and Kaykay's video, and is the owner of clicknetwork.tv!!

    People are always expressing surprise that it's a girl who shoots such "smut". LOL!!!!

    (Digressing, new videos are out, please go watch!!!!!!!)



    3 of us...



    Love!



    Pretty but scary ceiling



    Lentil soup... Nice but on top of the bread got PARSLEY!!!!!!!!



    Samosa thingy... I think with eggplant?



    Roast beef!! :D Very tender and yums



    Rozz, her bro Ryan and Ryan's gf Steph...



    Our dessert, lava cake!! I can also cook it HAHAHAHA!



    Ryan said true Indian food must eat with hands, so they were making him eat the lava cake with no cutlery!



    Without Rozzie outside... I love my topshop dress + matching heels (gojane.com)!!



    Random pic


    Went to St Regis on Dr Georgia Lee's invitation to a special premiere of Victor Victoria!!

    The dress code was "Androgynous"!!!!!!



    Gorgeous chandeliers



    Can't really see, but famous jazz singer Laura Fygi is on stage serenading us! She even sang "The Moon Represents My Heart" can?? In pretty accurate Mandarin!



    Here I am in my androgynous clothes!! Ok lah that's as androgynous as I managed to go.

    The top is from F21 and the back is only a ribbon! I just saw Kristen Bell wear it on Heroes season 2! Very pleased with my own taste LOL


    In preparation for Nuffnang Awards


    OMG! I did so much shit before going for the Awards!! Afterall it's the first time anyone threw a gala dinner for bloggers mah!! Ahem.




    Who's this frustrated-looking person??

    It's FIZZY, who met up with me to design my NN awards dress!!!

    He's only 21 and he already designed dresses for 2 past Ms Sg Universes!!





    There he is with me!!

    Fizzy is great!!! We were discussing the dress and right that night he already draped the design on a mannequin to show me!! :D :D :D

    This is the kinda enthusiasm that designers need!

    You can see his masterpiece on me in a bit.


    Emailed Dr Georgia Lee that I want to go for lip fillers and she very kindly sponsored me!!

    She's the best there is so if you wish to do aesthetic stuff such as acne treatment or fillers or whatever, here's her website!

    On top of lip fillers I'm also going to undergo Ulthera, an ultrasonic treatment to reduce fats, wrinkles, and tighten skin!!



    At the clinic...



    Waiting inside the stylish room.



    Here's Dr Lee putting a clear gel on my double chin fats and doing ulthera for me!!

    It feels kinda like IPL and I won't lie, it IS painful!!


    BUT IT IS FUCKING AWESOME!!!


    When I went home, I could literally SEE a difference in my jawline. Used to be flabby and it was tight omfg!!!!!!

    I posted the picture on POTM, so if you missed it, scroll back a bit.



    The thing shoots eletrical pulses DEEP into your skin.

    I think Ulthera costs $3k plus... If you are interested do call them up!!

    TOTALLY WORTH IT I TELL YOU!!

    I guess those people following me on twitter already heard me raving like a mad woman about ulthera so I'd stop here.



    Here's Dr Lee holding Restylane, the stuff that's in my lips now!!

    Can you believe she has 2 kids?? -_- Look so young wtf...

    She was so pro lor the whole procedure was done in 5 minutes flat. -_-


    I had a lot more fillers this time than the last time (I requested for it) so I was walking around looking duckish for 2 days...

    Here's day 1:



    So in love with new lips.....!!

    Went out to Aly's birthday party and scared everyone there with my face. LOL!!







    Us girls at the poolside



    ***************************************


    And off to Celab Nails to bling up my nails!!



    Goodbye awful self-painted nails...



    Here's my glamourous manicurist Deniz, nail extraordinaire to the stars!





    Chio! Looks a lot more bling irl but somehow the pictures don't do them justice.



    Guess whose giant watch it is in the background??



    It's Joanne Peh's! She's looking pretty even without make up!

    We were chatting on Twitter about going to the NN awards together (she was nominated for best celeb blog), and it was so coincidental that she was scheduled to do her nails with Deniz after me!



    Here's us with dolled up nails... Actresses quite cham, in order to look consistent in episodes they can't have crazy nails or cut/dye their hair in the middle of filming!



    Thanks for the nails :D



    MOBJET party
    one day before NN awards!




    With Mike



    There's Shan and Rozz hosting, although they can't be seen much in the dark...

    Was fun but I was exhausted so I went back home pretty early. Really man, I can't even club nowadays!! I'm OLD!




    What's this?



    It's our own limo with driver!! Thanks so much for the awesome ride Mobjet! :D



    We couldn't resist camwhoring... Here's Mike acting cool with his Evian.



    And me in my reclined seat! I could get used to life like this. :)


    **************************




    Here's one pic of me doing my hair at Mosche (67355443) before the awards... I wanted it big! I'm wearing sunglasses not to act cool but coz the fringe was poking into my eyes, ok?

    Pic of me on stage getting an award!!

    I must say I am so in love with Joanne lor... I'm not like gao poring her or anything but she actually took the initiative to help me use my camera to snap pics!!

    So helpful!!!

    COZ MIKE IS DAMN BLUR AND WON'T DO IT ONE LOR!!!

    After getting the trophies the winners are to go outside on the carpet to snap pictures, and she followed me out, with my camera, to help me snap a pic!!! Mad love!!

    I am sorry I didn't help you do the same thing babe!!! T_T (Her award was before mine ok I am not so terrible, I just wasn't zi dong enough)




    Here's another Joanne Peh photography pic. I think I was telling a joke or something, which nobody laughed it.



    Wait Allan Wu laughed!!




    Here I am with trophies for:

    - Best Original Blog Design

    - Most Influential Blog

    - And best of all, REGION'S BEST BLOG!!!!

    OMGWTFBBQ!!!






    Trophy sharing time with Lionel, my AWESOME designer!!

    Fuck everyone who said I don't deserve to win coz I didn't even design my own blogskin.

    I'm sorry, but how the FUCK do you know how much design was done by me? Is it not my vision, my time too?

    Like this only actors who write their own scripts can get acting awards?? Or race car drivers who don't build their own cars cannot win races also lah??

    What bullshit is this?

    THE AWARD WAS NOT FOR ME, WENDY CHENG.

    It was won for HTTP://XIAXUE.BLOGSPOT.COM, my BLOG, not my person. Does that make crystal clear sense?? I didn't win as a designer. My BLOG won as a design.


    If you knew beforehand....

    1) People who didn't design their own blogskin can also qualify, and;

    2) It was 50% based on votes.

    And you thought you didn't have a chance against my so called minions, then WHY JOIN??

    It seems silly to me to whine and bitch afterwards. *rolls eyes*






    Two pics with Cheesie!
    Check out the second one with awesome blurry spinning background!
    Kenny moved the cam after he took the pic LOL



    Manslave holding the FUCKING heavy trophies


    Next day... CNA interview and 93.8 Live interview with the bloggers from around the region!





    Left to right: Cheesie, Boss Ming, Lady Melbourne, and Super Kawaii Mama!


    So fun meeting all of them!! I love the Aussie bloggers man, they are all so vain! And I'm going to go to Disneyland with Cheesie in a week! Can't wait omg!!


    ANYWAY... Really pleased about the award's results. Would not have done it without you guys!! *tears* Thanks so much for all the votes...



    And not to worry, I'm definitely gonna fulfil my promises for those blog entries!! However, the love story's time is not right yet. Definitely within this month though. ;)


    I must say, it was a lucky day for me the day I decided to join Nuffnang... :)


    3 trophies, 3 reasons for me to continue to put in effort blogging!!!


    And reason no. 4 got cashed out some time ago:

    The Battle Against the Double Chin

    Advertorial

    After getting a nose job, the thing I hated the most about my face had to be my chin and neck.

    I know you guys are probably thinking I am being ludicrous, but most of the pictures you see on this blog are majorly photoshopped anyway! You have no idea how much I have to push my jaw in with liquify (photoshop tool)!!!!!!!

    And not to mention my stupid fatass neck. What a stupid area to get fats in!

    Anyway, double chins and neck fats are notoriously hard to get rid of. I remembered asking Dr Martin Huang how he would suggest I get a bloody slender neck, and he gave me loads of options but all of them sounded rather complicated (and expensive)!

    He also suggested perhaps a chin implant, but...


    1) I don't wanna end up looking like THIS FREAK:

    Blergh!

    And 2) I HAVE A CHIN!!! I do! It's just that it's hidden under fats!

    So you can imagine I was really quite excited when I was given a new product to try:



    THE FACE BRA!!!!!!!!!!



    Here's Yufit's hot face shaper bra!


    And their Age and Lock neck and chin face bra...

    The difference between the two products is that one (the hot one) is meant to burn fats while the other moisturises and reduces wrinkles!


    And both do facial slimming, lifting up of face and reducing double chin!!


    I think it's really cool that people are finally coming up with products meant for the chin and neck, which are so often neglected and yet as important as the face!




    A box of the Hot face bra for $35 with 7 packets inside.


    Age-lock with 14 masks altogether in one box.



    The Hot face bra claims to be "self-heating".
    Does it really work?

    And what exactly is a "FACE BRA"??

    I'm going to try it on now!!



    Here's the mask stretched out.



    Hang both ends on your ears!!

    And the suspicious liquid on my shin was dripped from the mask. -_-


    And I have it on!


    SHOCKINGLY enough, after about 5 mins of having the face bra on, it started to heat up!!

    And I mean REALLY heat up!!

    I don't know what magical ingredient is in there but if it's so hot it's surely burning SOMETHING right??

    AND you won't believe this but it continues being hot for the next 40 mins! I mean hot is in "spicy" hot, not temperature hot btw.


    Anyway I had to wait for 30 - 40 minutes while having the mask on so while waiting, I check out the other products Lush Group sent me!




    Sunscreen, 2 bb creams, and 2 foundations!!


    And check out Elishacoy's luscious masks and cleanser!!

    Of all the products they sent me, my favourite is...





    The Milk Cacao Black Sugar Scrub!!!!


    It looks all brownish and gross here but I assure you that it's super luxurious!!!!!!!


    I'm madly in love with it!

    The scrub smells SO FREAKING GOOD! The smooth brown gel just glides onto your skin and it smells like rich chocolate with a strong caramel scent...

    I was so freaking tempted to taste it but managed to stop myself...

    When you put it on your skin, you can feel the sugar grains... And as you rub and exfoliate, the grains disappear!

    Not only does your skin become super soft afterwards, you can also see how u look like tan coz the gel is dark brown!! LOL... So fun.


    I also like their cleanser btw. It's pretty good! Not too dry after using and quite foamy.

    Also, Elishacoy’s product are all made from organic and botanical ingredients which are suitable for sensitive skin!!



    Ok after 40 mins of the hot face bra...


    HERE ARE THE RESULTS!!!

    BEFORE, with no photoshop on chin/jawline


    AFTER!! (With Pumpkin climbing on my lap)


    It's a bit hard to tell the difference so here are the before and after side by side:


    What do you think? Got difference???




    Here's another Before and After photo I took about 1 month ago when I first got the product...

    I think the slimming is more apparent here!


    I mean obviously the difference is not going to be freaking remarkably different. After all, I only tried the mask twice, and it's not magic!


    I can definitely feel my skin tighten though. Even if it doesn't slim down your face or your face is slim enough, it is still useful to prevent wrinkles and moisturize!




    So here I am also doing the Age and Lock mask on my neck!!! :D :D :D It makes me look like I have a stiff collar. LOL!!


    Can't believe I showed you all my non-photoshopped jawline!! Utterly flabby and gross!!


    Here's the photoshopped one. I insist.



    Definitely more effective than the face bra but too bad it can't be used in real life. Boo!!!!!

    Last chio pic!



    Yufit's face shaper bra and Age-Lock Cold face shaper bra cost $35 each and are available at all SASA cosmetic stores and John Little departmental stores.

    Elishacoy's products are available at all John Little departmental stores. Have fun shopping!
