Today is the first time I am going to get my hair treated by Kimage! SHIOK!! Monica from Kimage kept looking at my hair, going TSK TSK and looking horrified.
My hair that bad meh?
That's me, on Momo's car for she was driving me there. Yeah lah, very fat around the arms. Who cares?!
I sat down on the nice chair (Funan outlet) and started to cry.
Bah! It is damn bad lah! Monica is right! Girls who have really long hair will know, the ends can never get enough nutrients. The ends are really suay lah, coz they are the oldest so they have been through all the shit.
I reckon my ends have been dyed at least 20 times (in a span of 4 years or so), bleached, permed, and then rebonded.
No wonder it looks awful like this when I don't tie my buns to sleep:
A bit the no sex appeal hor?
But hey!
Today...
And thus the treatment starts!
The stylist painstakingly (because my hair is so damn long and thick) put loads of cream on my hair.
And then the waiting begins... Ah, the price we have to pay for beauty. I read Harry Potter for the 16th time I think.
I was like madly taking photos and I think the guy beside me thinks that I am siao. How often do you get wrapped in a blue towel man?! Of course must take photo what!
After that I washed the cream off, and they put another:
And they put me in the steamer thing!
And waiting still while cam-whoring...
Undeniably artistic right!? Wah! Got depth of field somemore!
And....
*drumroll*
The results!!!

So nice!!! *weeps* I love my hair now! I am not bullshitting you, there really is a difference in the hair texture after the treatment. And to think I used not to believe in them! Admittedly the hair is blown into its beautiful curls, but still nice! =) Took around 1 hour.
Well, the stylist says that treatment must be done repeatedly to get your hair healthy, especially if you do all those hurtful things to it like blowing or dyeing often.
Nice hor? If only I know how to blow my hair like that also.
Oh and btw the change in clothes is because I bought that new dress from Bugis Village so I changed! =)
My hair is nicer than yours!
Beautiful nails!!

This entry will TOTALLY bore all the men!
For those of you with stumpy nails like this:
There is now help! I mean, those are obviously not my fingers, I stole the picture from some website... Poor girl! Shouldn't have bitten nails! Lucky for her there are artificial nails. =D
So anyway, last time I used to think that acrylic nails simply meant nails which are painted on with acrylic paint, but when I arrived at Voxy I realised it was a totally different thing altogether.
It is not cheap - I think Voxy charges $80, and it is this price everywhere because of the copious amount of work needed.
I was damn shocked to know that it will take a freaking 1.5 hours to do the nails!
First, you get fake nails that look like this:
and stick it to your finger tips with some amazing glue. IYF the more transparent part is the part you stick, and the opaque part is the nail tip, not the other way round.
The manicurist will then file it to the length you want, as well as file the sides of the artificial nail tip to your fingertip's width.
When all are glued, the manicurist will then take out a small bottle of white powder, and this is the acrylic, but in powder form! She will dip a brush in some volatile liquid, and when the liquid touches the powder, it will form a glue-like substance which will be applied over your original nails! It is actually very cute to watch, a small whitish blob. =)
And voila!
Good bye ugly nails!
This photo is the most accurate I can find since mine are lost... The acrylic is a smooth white matte layer over your original nail, and, to me at least, it looks totally natural!
And best news is that it makes your nail polish stay on for AGES!
When the nails grow out, like in two weeks' time or so, you have to go for an infill. That's around $40, inclusive of the usual nail care thingys like cuticle pushing and so on.
It is expensive, but well, some of us will do anything for beauty! I think, if you think acrylic nails are too pricey for normal days, you can always do it for special occasions like weddings or D&Ds.
Especially good for people who have bitten nails, or nails that are so soft and weak they can never grow long without breaking. (mine is the latter!) Acrylic is so hard, you can possibly scratch the chalkboard and never achieve that horrible sound because the chalkboard is torn to shards.
Here are some photos of the nail arts Voxy did for me:
Bright hibiscuses for the beach feel!
I love the pink colour - it's called strawberry! And the silver is so shiny... I feel like a superstar! :D
So yes, if you want to remove acrylic, you have to soak it for 30 minutes to get it off. Oh, you can also do it for toes if you want, though my toes are not acrylic.
Feel free to email me questions, for I do not reply in the comments box! =)
p/s: I will update tomorrow with Voxy's rates, but meanwhile, you can still go to their website if you need nail services!
Chrisopher, the love of my life
I was just minding my own business, you know, surfing websites, kicking Cloudy, reading emails, and talking to Shuyin on MSN, when suddenly, I came across something in my Gmail.
Totally unsuspectingly, I read it, and burst out laughing.
I present to you, CHRISOPHER (without the T mind you):
TICKLE TICKLE ITCHY!!!
Since I was so traumatized, I thought, well, I might as well traumatize Shuyin also.

Silly Turodrique finally have done up online-stores for Localbrand's newest collections lar!!
We have all been pestering him for the longest time but he was just murking around until now... centuries later ... it is finally done up!
Good on you T! *thumps Turodrique on the back*
Well, good things come in small packages, so check out the 4 new designs! Only 3 are for sale actually. 147? You have to figure out for yourself what that number signifies.
This naturally signifies that we have a new photoshoot!
I love the photos! Photographer is Gary James Ng, Turodrique's friend, and his email is donotcullcats@yahoo.com, if you want his services.
At first Turodrique was taking the photos himself, and they turned out quite horrid. Background bright, face dark, etc problems... I TOLD YOU YOU SHOULD GIVE UP PHOTOGRAPHY ALREADY T!! Stick to designing!
So nice right? I love SLRs! Go have a look at what Turodrique did with the photos... I like his ideas - he said that even without my full face people recognise that smile.
Awww! So sweet. (Of course, having the whole face there will also distract from the t-shirt designs, and we don't want that. =D)
Turodrique is also looking for new local designers, so do email him or something, if you want to have your own line of tees!

Xiaxue says:
no one has a sense of humour nowadays leh. Everything they also take so seriously! Have a pinch of salt lah!
Xiaxue says:
i dont think i sounded racist, it was obviously only against that particular person, not the entire race what! DUH, even an idiot can see that.
IT Geek says:
dun care abt 'no one', its more serious tt the gov has no sense of humour. zilch.
Xiaxue says:
true
IT Geek says:
but u shldn't hv mentioned like 'pig' n the person's race la..
IT Geek says:
leave either out
Xiaxue says:
i wanted something smelly to throw at him mah
Xiaxue says:
guess a giraffe will have to do
IT Geek says:
... hw abt a dustbin or rotten sausage?
Xiaxue says:
Sigh... All this emphasis on race is only going to make it more stressful and chaotic than ever. As kids, remember we always poke fun at each other's races and no one minds? Now I think they play "bayi what colour" also will kena arrested.
....................................................
Erm, hello you Mica people, I am not racist okie?! I am totally for Singapore being a racially harmonious place! -_- It is ridiculous to say I am racist when obviously I have Malay (albeit half) friends like Idris. Though not many lar, because I came from a Chinese school what...
I heart Aaron Aziz.
How to be racist towards someone so cute leh?
I do have to admit that I am a aesthetist though! I secretly discriminate against ugly people. Sometimes, I wear a plastic bag on my head (to hide my identity) and try to lynch them, but I realised I cannot see them when I have that bag on, because I only see the interior of the plastic bag. Oh and smelly people. Smellist I am! Sometimes, when I didn't bathe for, like, 12 days, I also turn smelly, and I discriminate against myself.
If I can, I will also throw things at them, like a plastic surgeon, or an air freshener tube, ya know. But I guess it is ok, to discriminate other things, just because it is not as defined as race. Personally, I think Brad Pitt is really ugly, and I discriminate him whenever I can.
I'm sure some of you agree. Cmon! Just because he is blonde, with deep-set sexy eyes and a sharp nose with perfect teeth in a perfect smile, complete with a tight jawline and two dimples with muscles that look like they are sculpted on doesn't necessarily mean he is good looking, ok?

September 11
Poor Weili. On the big day he turns 21, other people all around the whole are mourning for the victims of that horrible plane crash.
In fact, when he mass-smsed me to tell me about the details for his party and also requested for me to RSVP, I replied that I am not free that day as I had to mope around the whole day in respect for the victims of the 911.
He didn't reply me.
But of course, since Weili was so freaking nice to Shuyin and I on our birthdays (Chopping smelly fish with a blunt knife despite having exams the next day; woke up at 9am to make jelly and made beautiful card plus buy lovely presents), we decided to be nice to him too. Because we love him, chaotah face and all.
Thus we decided on giving him a threesome involving our lovely bodies and some whipped cream.
However, Kenny Sia overheard our discussion, and said loudly he would like to participate too and will kindly provide the said whipped cream if we need him to.
Shuyin and I looked at each other, changed the topic with haste, and quickly walked away from Kenny.
Of course, that didn't happen because not only does Weili look like the sort who secretly has STDs (though we did hear rumours that his penis is the size of, oh stop it, I'm blushing!), Shuyin and I are pure, sweet girls who will not get involved in dirty, horrible things like mass orgies. How ghastly! Oh and plus Kenny is in Malaysia. =)
So yes, we finally agreed on doing him a banner, and we woke up at beastly hours (9am and 10am!!) to go to Clementi to get our materials.
Digressing, I would like to say that Clementi is officially the hottest place in Singapore. I HATE Mrt stations, where once you alight, there is no immediate air-conditioning. Correct me if I am wrong - I thought our country is developed *roll eyes*? I demand air-conditioning EVERYWHERE I go! Duh! *flips hair in a bimbo manner*
And since Clementi is one of these dreadful non-aircon-ed places, it is in the running for "hottest place in Singapore". Ang Mo Kio comes close second, and so does Bukit Gombak, but nobody cares about Bukit Gombak because nobody goes there unless you are the xiao guilin ghost and as far as I know ghosts do not take trains.
Actually I think AMK is hotter. Toa Payoh used to be very hot too, then they wisened up and aircon-ed the whole damn place. What CFCs? Who cares? I am the center of the world!
Sorry, big digression. I need sleep, because I think I have a date tomorrow. =)
So yes, we bought our banner cloth (settling for dark brown) at a cheap $3.30 (price is inversely proportional to hotness of location, I found out), and also banner paints and brushes.
We were ready to go after settling our design, which is the damn gorilla on Weili's blog, holding a birthday key. Cheesy I know, but what to do, must be personalised what.
Cloudy kept sleeping on our banner cloth so we poured excess paint over him and chopped off his limbs to be placed at City Hall (or Bugis, we haven't decided) because Orchard is overrated.
Shuyin wears my NCC tee and does expert measurements. Alright yes yes my brother is on a giant banana. I saw it. I am trying to ignore it, and you HAVE to remind me. Or moon. Whatever, ok? Just leave it. I said leave it already!
What! Cannot wear a shower cap is it? Well, my hair is very long, unlike yours! So it is VERY possible it will fall into paint or something! And surely that is not good, at all!
So yes, I do the words and the key, and SY does the gorilla. Yeah yeah laugh at the cap. It's possibly classier than YOURS, because your cheapo cap is stolen from a hotel, and mine is $4.40 from Guardian, with a double layer and purple flowers, ok?!
That aside, aren't SY and I talented?
We move the banner outside, and lace it with newspapers.
Painting commences.
I would like to point out, that the damn ape's chest is supposed to be dark brown, and SY's first brush stroke was to colour it cream. WRONG! Silly woman.
Mei bu mei?!
We are almost done now!! Only left the outlining to be done, and...
VOILA!!!
I KNOW! Isn't it just GORGEOUS?!
Then we called Weili, and wanted to surprise him by appearing at his place at 12midnight to give him the banner, but he was supposed to be out singing KTV with his family....
We felt so bummed, we just sat around for whole minutes in silence, totally exhausted, and very disappointed coz we were so enthusiastic about the banner, and yet he couldn't meet us... We painted from 3pm till 11pm!
So in the end, I called him and whined and whined (because SY is not the sort who will whine), and Weili skipped KTV and went home!!
He didn't cry when he saw the banner. DAMMIT WEILI U UNGRATEFUL PRICK!
Next morning... The two siao kias woke up at 10am while I slept on, as usual.
When I got up at 2pm, they were happily playing Google Earth:
Very fun leh! Just keep zooming in, and you can find your own house! So scary!
Yes, also, may I direct you to the top right hand corner of the picture where you see a certain reflection of a pair of legs? When Shuyin saw that, I really couldn't stop laughing.
Weili is very nice to us coz he is obligated to!
Awww! Is that birthday Mee Sua cooked for me?!
It is, it is! So nice. *gobble* Six meatballs!
I have no idea how Shuyin managed to take such an incriminating shot! Weili was adjusting his pants or something, and I was telling him a story involving pelvis or pants, so my hands were where they were, trying to prove a point... and she snapped.
You know what it looks like. But it is not what it looks like!
We reach Weili's auntie's condo...
BLOODY RIBBONS!
I have enough of ribbons! BLUE ribbons! We had to...
tie 96 ribbons last night on these goodie bags (though admittedly Weili and Shuyin did most of the work), and now we have to curl the ribbons for decoration!
At least my gaudy golden VIP Partyworld card works well.
Weili loves his ribbons.
6pm, and guests start to arrive! The theme is "oriental", and of course, Sy, Wanyi and I were game enough to wear damn cheongsams for silly Weili... That SY even went to specially BUY one... -_-
He made us do reception-ing... =(
Chio chio chio!
Tricia (playing with my phone) and her sister Megan! Aren't Weili's cousins so cute!! I like them a LOTTTT! They are very sweet, and so helpful! Sigh, I also want to have daughters like that in future, haha...
Weili also changed into his "long pao" (Dragon robes) so I couldn't resist ...
Hahaha! Don't really look like the classic shots. Guess it needs to be sepia!
With Louisa and June (Ho).
The group of us kept hogging the KTV...
I mean, of course there are other friends of Weili there too, but I shall not post their photos, because well, there will always be people with absurd privacy issues and whatever... Bah!
Rat baby!
21 red eggs! AREN'T THEY SO FREAKING CUTE?! Weili's dad drew these (with the exception of the god-awful purple flower which I drew while eating mee sua) and I totally love them!
Look, there's a diving mouse, a blind mouse, two geeky mice, and even a mouse shitting!
Damn cute.
Group photo! I felt a bit out of place; the rest were all from Chung Cheng... -_-
And finally...
Happy birthday lah handsome!!
