i realised that i have heels permanently attached to my soles. not good, its killing my feet.
schools starting soon. 9 months sure do fly by quick! soon we'll be graduating and sitting behind desks. actually the thought of that isn't too enticing :(
we slog our asses off to get into uni and slog another 3 years in uni just to end up in a boring job behind a desk?! life just doesn't seem to make sense sometimes huh.
i actually like studying, i just don't like the impending doom that comes along with it ( read: a lvls)
why doesn't my braces hurt! i'm going to ask my dentist that the next time i see him. people speak of excruciating pain and hell-like discomfort yet i'm feeling absolutely nothing. and i'm pretty sure my nervous system is working just fine. maybe if i ask my dentist he'll comply and condemn me to 2 yrs of suffering. that isn't too good an idea i suppose.
so the moral of the story is... well actually i can't quite find one. bah.
i've been looking for movie partners for angels&demons, night at the museum & transformers!
quite tough, everyone watched it before! everyone i know rushed to the theatres for transformers because of megan's hotness ( yes we're so close we're on first name basis, heh. )
'reports citing official sources say pop icon michael jackson has died after suffering a cardiac arrest; he was aged 50.'
bittersweet people. its bittersweet.

Beautiful things inspire me :)
just got back from some Chanel presentation @ the Chanel store. it was the launch of their Chanel Moscou collection (inspired by Coco Chanel's paris-moscou collection of 1923). pretty damn awesome i must say.
they started off with abit of history of the collection which was all very entertaining. Coco Chanel & her lover. heh her Russian lover inspired her paris-moscou collection. Karl lagerfeld mixed it up brilliantly and served it with a modern twist = chanel moscou :D:D
then they showed a short silent film by Karl Lagerfeld on how Coco Chanel came along with her inspiration. it was very well done, very beautiful but not too serious :)
after which, Kenneth Gho, the fashion director for singapore's Harper's Bazaar gave a little talk & presented a runway show of afew his favourite looks from the collection. heh, whichneedless to say came with super gorgeous models.
[side note: apparently he styled alot of Hollywood Alisters before. my eyes popped abit when they rolled out those big names during his introduction. btw the editorials he showed us were quite stellar too, i might start reading haper's bazaar for their beautiful picturessss :D]
omg, am super inspired :) more DIYs forming up in my headdddd.
OH AND i wore something similar to what Coco Chanel did in the film on the vaunt final rehearsal. but instead of like tights and shorts, she wore this beautiful long black skirt ( i'm assuming its black cos its a black and white film =.=)
okay i know its not really Coco Chanel herself ( a model played her role) but hey, i picked out something Karl lagerfeld did in his film, that has gotta count for something! heh.
MUMMY AND I :D
they were pretty quick. the picture was taken when we walked in and was washed and delivered to us before the show was over.
anyway, idk where the invite went, so here's the lookbook cover :)
the outfit.
Dress : Muacks (some store ard arab street) Heels+Earrings : Chanel
brought along an Armani blazer :)
we weren't allowed to take photos during the show, sadly. :(
but there were door gifts :)
photo, lookbook, Harper's Bazaar, 2 chanel moscou collection nail polish & perfume (cuir de russie).
anyway, remember i said i wore something similar as what the model in the silent film wore?
shorts : altered from skinnies blouse+headband : Bangkok
wore the same pair of Chanel heels as i did today
butter is closed due to h1n1 cases. damn, feel so... incomplete without my ladies night at butter.
girls are asking me to go zouk but you know if you think rationally, since butter is closed, the butter crowd is obviously going to head to the already usually packed zouk since its sort of the next best option. which means super choked up dancefloor = not only sucks but also increases the chances of getting the flu.
okay, i'm staying home and rotting. being paranoid is better than being sorry.
p.s. i've never been surrounded by so many tai tais in my entire life. and gawd, they all look so hot too, not an inch of them had 'mummy qualities'. wow, see how far a nanny, loads of free time and a gym membership can get you.
Love, Tiff.
6:18 PM
just bought the cloth for my DIY. decided to make everything from scratch! gawd, i didn't know that beads were this expensive, i mean they're super tiny afterall right.
oh, SMU's matriculation thing is a BITCH. ugh. everything is so... troublesome. i have to double sign in for every single time i click a button. and omg, they have so many rules for every damn thing, like even your OWN PERSONAL PASSWORD is being restricted by them.
well besides such and such nothing much has been going on, life's been pretty mundane.
went out with the girls for some shopping then crashed at Loof. it's like home :)
the outfit
destroyed denim + heels + fedora : bangkok! ( hahaha don't you just love that country, dayum.)
backpack : Chanel
ame&grad went to do their hair before i arrived ( was late,whoops). they went and got like 4 bundles of blonde highlights attached to their hair. haha attached hair vs real hair. mine pwn hands down HAHAHA.
i think i look weird in specs. anyway those 2 are playing with the free puff pens from some makeup store in plaza sing.
Loof mojito & peach margarita.
Loof makes the best mojito imo! :)
super awesome satays! it was satay night hence freeflow of satays which we just gobbled down like there's no tomorrow. hee.
some dude's birthday and he bought us drinks. we thought ben was kidding when he said that the guy wanted to buy us drinks. oh gawd. but oh well bellinis are the best alcoholic drinks mainly cos its champagneeeee :)
SELLING HEELS!!oh remember the Balmain inspired heels? ame, grad and i each bought one, but grad wants to sell hers.
240mm/24cm feet size. approximately size 37 ?
Only worn ONCE. Condition 9.5/10 (as quoted from ame, lol) she didn't do much walking as i remembered? we sat down the entire time cos she wasn't in the mood or smth. will clean up the soles when anyone purchases it.
