correction: my LG phone CAN blog on the go.. haha. next time i won't have to wait till i get home to blog. yay :D
forgot to take pictures of the Pu Tian Restaurant at Kitchener Road, the place we went for dinner today :( still not really used to the hp cos blogging on the hp takes up quite a bit of time, plus i was busy eating! the food is good, especially one of their specialties: heng hua lor mee. it looks more like ban mian (yew mian, in fact) but it tastes even better! dang. now i really wished i had taken a nice picture of it to show you.
dunno why, but we suddenly talked about where our dad was, because he had to work til a bit later and couldn't join us. we were guessing he's at montero's pub, his favourite haunt (there's pool table there together with all his friends :X) or could he be at home? we all concluded that chances of him being home is like 0.1% haha. mom jokingly bet with us that he's at montero's. lol. she won, because we went to surprise dad. hahaha. machiam like family day, the boss said. basically, we had a fun time there, i had a shandy, played pool with my brother (won him 2/2) and watched the pro (my dad). luckily it wasn't crowded today or i would've been damn stressed. imagine many pros looking at you play then see you so noob. lol.
ok, need to go. mu's coming over my place tomorrow to test lighting and i'm probably going tpy to buy lipsticks for the shoot. and i need to buy the backdrop!
p.s. the curry rice shop opposite pu tian restaurant smells damn good! gonna try it the next time round :)

oh ya, bought the clarins shaping face lift yesterday! yay! seriously, it's been only 2 days and i can see results already. worth the money! haha.i finally got it.
i also bought M.A.C's contour palette, which i love to the core. can't wait to use for the photoshoot!
also bought quite a few more M.A.C products. and yay i finally got my 6 empty M.A.C containers to exchange for a free lipstick! actually wanted to get the limited edition lippie but it was just sold out. sad. nonetheless i got a nice colour, could've gotten red but i didn't cos i think can just use my existing red to blend with other colours. the lipsticks are all sooooo nice i wish i had the entire collection. wahaha.
last but not least, i painted my nails today. got the nail polish from The Face Shop. hope to do nails for the shoot as well since not really going to do much hairstyling. this is the result of my crazy idea:
my cam didn't catch the exact colour. it's more fuschia than it looks haha. my first time trying to do gradient nail colours. not very good but not bad for a first timer. heh.
dunno why, i'm just so lazy to blog nowadays. really regret not getting a hp that can blog on the go. that'll be interesting. anyway, i recently did makeup for a charity concert. as it was a charity concert, i didn't get paid, but just took it as an experience and i got portfolio photos. heh. but they were taken by my digi cam and with my lousy skills haha. and the photos can't really see the makeup! should've taken superrrr closeup. sad.
the charity concert was actually a singing performance by hosanna music ministry for the montfort brothers. kind of like God's arrangement that the makup artist is also catholic, no? anyway auyong msged and said they were urgently looking for makeup artists, and since i was free.. the concert goes on for 2 days and plus the full dress rehearsal so it's really a short stunt kinda thing. fun for me because i love putting makeup for people and making them look good haha. and the girls were a nice sweet bunch, and trusted me to put "unknown" (to most of them la) stuff on their faces LOL. there were guys too but i forgot to take pictures.. but their makeup is very simple so it doesn't really matter also. it's quite hectic to do girls 'cos their makeup's all different, for guys jus slap on foundation, fill the brows and some bronze blusher and they're good to go.
these are the 6 ladies whom i was "in-charge" of:
maybe next year i'll do it again..
