Life is like a roller-coaster ride. And you know what happens when you’re on it for too long – you start getting a headache and feel like throwing up.
On a lighter and happier note, here’s Frank & Sophia’s bundle of joy! I had such a good time with this little one who was just so easy to shoot and totally worked the camera! With thick jet black, naturally spiky hair and a calm and mild mannered nature (probably also due to the lack of sleep!), he is the cutest thing ever! At only 3 months, Aniu could fit into 6 month old clothing! Yes, that’s how big he is!
At the very beginning of the shoot, he was awake and inquisitive, checking out the big bright lights that flashed at him with eyes wide open.
… and some time alone for mommy and daddy. Don’t they look so cute?
Happy Happy Wednesday! I don’t know about you but mid-week never felt so great! Apart from the very good start to my morning, I’m totally looking forward to my jog in the park, (the one I had to postpone two days in a row due to bad weather) and am super excited about Ming’s belated Valentine’s surprise beach getaway this weekend! It’s another day of work and then more sun, sand and sea!
Ever since I posted up Tiesto photos of my blond hair, I’ve been getting a lot of remarks/compliments on how brave I am to go blond. Well, truth be told, it was more of a hair disaster which was conveniently camouflaged as a fashion statement. What I thought would take 2 hours took 4.5! Because I wanted to go a completely different shade, my hair stylist had to do a color wash, THREE times, before actually coloring my hair! I was so late that I literally had to dash out of Star Hill, race back to my apartment and barely had 15 minutes to pack for Bangkok! Ming liked my new Harajuku look but I could only do a day of my borderline Ah-lian hair!
With almost no sleep at all, I rushed back to my stylist to get it re-done the very next day. It’s now ash/green and although it’s fading REAL ast to a lighter shade, I’m lovin’ it a lot better! What do YOU think?
Gong xi gong xi! It’s Chinese New Year and hopefully after this long week’s break, I’ll spring back into work mode and go full steam! (yes, I admit it, I’ve been on holiday mode since Christmas!) As with most my CNYs, I spent a lot of time traveling. My first two days of CNY were spent in Jakarta and then I was back in Penang for the week. You know that warm fuzzy feeling when you land and someone sepcial is there to greet you? Well I can’t remember the last time anyone greeted me at the KLIA aiport and it was nice to see a familiar face at the arrival hall during my 2-hour transit to Penang!
Wednesday was an especially good day! My morning started off with a “healthy” and super delicious Sister’s CKT and the festivities got more exciting with a lion dance mom had organized at home! I’m a huge fan of those white fluffy fluttering eye lashes and the loud drum! And what perfected the day was a nice and cozy dinner with Fiona (Teff), Yang and Ming (who had just raced to Penang from KL to spend the night with me!)
Topping off my CNY break was an overnight trip to Bangkok with Ming, Jiun and Fiona (Teff) to party with TIESTO! We flew in Friday evening, partied, and flew back early Saturday! It was tiring and hectic but all worth the while… Even after watching him several times in opposite ends of the world, he never fails to amaze me with his sets. Of course, he isn’t named one of the legendary DJs for no reason! And perhaps it was partly due to the thrill of flying to a different country just to party for one night!
Special thanks to Jiun who organized the trip and big props to him for the sweet “recovery pack” he had prepared and presented all of us at the very start of our adventure! It included, among other things, an iPod shuffle with preloaded music!!!! And I must give it to him – for being one of the most well-organized and well-prepared guys I’ve ever met; he wrote us all mini post it notes with our flight info and hotel address just in case we got so outta it and got lost!
And here’s a video of TIESTO’s grand entrance!
