The only two photos i have during my stay at Fullerton hotel over the weekend because some asshole decided to steal my phone during a photo shoot today......... I'm honestly really heartbroken and upset that all my photos in my phone are g o n e forever. Sigh sigh sigh why didn't i back up my phone yesterday???!


(╯︵╰,)



P/S: To those who texted me and i didn't reply, i'm sorry okay don't kill me. Email me if it's urgent! X

Okay so today i've an annoucement to make.....

Not many people know about this because i didn't want to announce it until i know i made it to the finals. And now i did so i just wanna say it out loud that.............


I MADE IT TO THE FINALS FOR ELITE MODEL LOOK 2012 SG AND I'M SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got through the island-wide casting and became the top 48 semi-finalists and was invited to Fullerton Bay Hotel for a event. I was actually quite nervous because i'm gonna meet some of the other contestants and i'm awkward around new, gorgeous people but it turned out just fine though!



We first had our hair and make up done in the room by these awesome make up artists!



Then the event started and we had to look classy and mingle around~~~



One more group photo with the girls in the room after the event!



And on last Saturday, it was the semi-finals. There were 48 girls and 22 guys and only 12 girls and 6 guys will be selected!



Pretty Natali!!! :*



Getting our comp cards!



Then it was time for the casting.........



The panel of judges - EML Singapore Director, Mr. Eric Ceret, Ms. Justina Kozicki and Ms. Lisa Crosswhite



We had to showcase our catwalk up and down the carpet thrice and honestly i was shaking so bad inside and on the same time, i can't stop thinking whether i look good, or if my posture is straight, and do i smile or do i give a stern face yada yada.... I was so upset after my walk because i felt like i didn't do a good job :(

But like what people say, always have confidence in yourself and just give everything that you're passionate about a try because you'll never know who will find potential in you!




And YESSSS I got into the top 12!!!! So thankful to be given this chance because i would never have thought that i could make it..... Sigh



The 6 male finalists!



Right after the semi finals, we started a whole lot of workshops... Busy busy busy. We have our schedule all packed for next week all the way till the finals on 9 Nov! But anyhoo, on Monday we had a fitting at Francis Cheong's!


Afterwhich, we got chauffeured by Volkswagen to the Volkswagen showroom for a photoshoot!



Not really a fan of my hairdo because i felt that it didn't complement my face shape? But i guess i just have to try to make it work?? Hahaha


So yup that's about it so far! Will share more later :)

P/S HI ERIC! :)

Super overdue post (thank you E for being so patient!!!) but here goes.......

Received 3 amazing pieces from Ashincans and i gotta say i love how they fit me so well!!!



Everyone needs a simple black collar top and this piece here is, can i say the purrrrfect one?! Material is awesome. Loving the double layer, especially the outer soft mesh layer :D



Second piece that i got was this pair of shorts! I love the fit and how it looks sooo good with my white studded bralet that i wore it again during Jen's POP hee



Ok and here's my favourite out of all 3!!!



TADA!



Two toned super lightweight with studs on the shoulders top! Super comfy and and you can dress it up or down depending on the occasion with this. What's not to love??! I brought it along with me during my BKK trip 2 weeks back.
Me & awesome top 1 : Humid BKK weather 0


Gotta thank and love E for gifting me these 3 pieces! If you haven't already heard about Ashincans (but i bet most of you do already ;), then head on down to their website NOW. Click the banner on the side bar! Start shopping your long weekend away because one can never have too much clothes and because today's a public holiday!

It's 1am now and i've to get up by 6 later sigh god bless me. Gotta go! Hope thursday will treat you guys well! The weekends are nearing so hang in there ok? Mwah goodnight xxxx :)

Did you guys expect a blogpost on Sunday? Hehe sorry! I was a lil busier last week...


ANYWAYYYY

I was in the shower just now and thinking about what i am doing with my life right now. You know school and shoots.... I love my work, i can do it forever and i never want to stop but tbh i'm kinda worried for my studies. I know it's only about 2 months+ into my first sem but yes i'm stress already. I can't handle numbers and graphs at all. I'm so bad at studying i don't even know why i was so determined to continue my studies in the very first place. I had this sudden urge to give it up just now, to tell my parents and let them nag at me forever but part of me refused to give it up. I don't want to have this regret in me forever for not completing my degree, i don't want to acknowledge the fact that i'm no good with books and that i'm stupid. I keep telling myself if others can do it, i'm sure i can right??!

Sure you will see me going to work every single day without fail if i have to, even if it means i have to wake up super early in the morning. But when it comes to school... I just can't seem to be as hardworking. I absorb new info slower, i'm not smart. When i go to class and i see all the smartypants and hardworking people around me and deep down it stresses me SO MUCH and i'll go like "wtf am i doing here actually"


I wanted to tell my parents this just now, not about quitting school but just letting them know that my heart isn't with my books, but the thought of letting them down and seeing worried, disappointed faces makes me want to cry


and i'm tearing now wtf wtf is this you weak bitch



Really damn sian and sad. Can anyone out there feel my pain??? :'(

Sunday night/ Monday morning feeling kinda down.....


I had an amazing time at Padang Grandstand yesterday!!!! Those who kept on telling me that the F1 race is gonna be boring/ i won't be able to see any cars are all lying to me! Bleh. Hahaha i can see them zoom past me okay!!! Mad love McLaren Mercedes's! The one with the silver hood! Wish i was more pro with my camera so i can take better pictures. Noobie me was just trying 1000001 times to capture a perfect shot, passed it to the bf and he tried another 1000001 times but ugh. We gave up in the end -___- Stayed to watch the Ferrari qualifying challenge because the boy is crazy about cars. Oh wait, you can't even use crazy on him. Ask him any super cars and he will know and tell you their specs and prices all i swear. Can have car talk for hours one lor. Abit siao one hor? But because of him, i've finally learnt to recognize and differentiate all the brands! Muahaha not bad ok i was a total noob last time don't even know how a Toyota logo looks like yknow hee. Ok too much car talk....... Anyway after that we hurried down to catch Maroon 5!!! Oh and did i mention that we met this super amazing and kind couple who gave us their fanzone passes so that we can get in up close to see Adam Levine?!?!! How can anyone be so sweet omg. The boy told me there were only like 2000 passes and people had to queue in the afternoon for it wtf. Even though we were in the fanzone we were still far away..... Adam Levine looks so tiny in my camera. But but i know it's better than looking at the screen so thank you sooooo much whoever you are. Good karma will strike on you soon :')


Brand new week again. I hate it when it's Sunday night because Sunday nights now means i've to get through the next 5 days without Jens by my side. But he's gonna POP soon!!! I think in like 12 more days? IS ANYONE GNNA BE THERE? Should i bring a bottle of deodorant for him? Hahahahaha i heard the floating platform area is gonna stink like mad. Part of me hopes he gets into a post he likes but another part of me hopes he gets into like a super chill 8-5 post near my place haha. I promise i will make lunchboxes for him (︶▽︶)ノ

Aiya sigh. I gotta go sleep now. Waking up in 6 hours time god bless me. I bet i'm going to have this urge to delete this whole entry tomorrow when i reread it in a clearer state of mind. Never really did such post before. I hope people will still read it mmmmm. Ok ok need to stop blabbering. Goodnight!!! X

HI LOVES!!!

Ok i know those of you who follow my formspring have been waiting for my post on my diet and i promise you guys, IT WILL BE UP soon ok? But for now i have to introduce y'all to some new brands in the online shopping-sphere first! Buy nice clothes and accessories first and look smashing in them later ;)



Today i'm gonna introduce you guys to THE PHRENZY!


Did i hear you saying you want hair chalk??!



Yup more on that later ;)

THE PHRENZY | Be wild, be unorthodox.

The word "phrenzy" is the archaic version of "frenzy". It may no longer be in use in modern times but it represents something wild and unorthodox for The Phrenzy team and its unique spelling further highlights this. We hope to spread the love for clothes, and for dressing up. We also encourage girls to be unconventional, yet to remain as themselves and feel comfortable at the same time.

The Phrenzy was launched on Feb 12 earlier this year. And they just launched their first collection a few weeks back!

Here are some of my favourites!



Want to have that korean vibes?? Want to be on trend? Want to stay away from boring normal shades??? Circle shades is your best bet!



Want to post awesome #armswag pictures on instagram? Everyone's selling/ wearing neon bracelets, skulls bracelets etc... Why not get something different??! I can't decide whether i love the left or the right one more!!

And like i mentioned above... Everyone wants to chalk their hair but don't know where to get them? Afraid that it'll be expensive?



Now you can get them from The Phrenzy!!!!!!! Only $16 for 5 wtf. Even cheaper if you quote my name! And they have so many colours to choose from! Click here to see all the colours they have :)



The Phrenzy is also holding a competition called "Fera Mos" right now. I know there are a few girls on my formspring who are keen on trying out modelling for blogshops but don't know where to start. Well, your chance is here! It's super easy to join too!

Just style and model your own outfit (clothes don't have to be from The Phrenzy) and email your snapshot to feramos@thephrenzy.com.


1st round of judging - the owner will pick their favourites
2nd round of judging - most likes on the short listed photos on Facebook will win!


**A tip from the owner - "Girls taking part in this contest are encouraged to be unconventional while styling their outfits but they should also feel and look comfortable. :-)"**


FIRST PRIZE: Sponsorship from The Phrenzy over three months + a chance to model for The Phrenzy + Maybelline products + shopping vouchers + more!

SECOND / THIRD PRIZE: A chance to model for The Phrenzy + Maybelline products + shopping vouchers + more


AWESOME OR WHAT??! :D




Oh check out their tumblr too! The owner didn't tell me about their blog, i found out myself and i've already bookmarked it! Super love browsing pages and pages of gorgeous photos! It might also be useful if you're thinking of joining the competition ;)
