B is for...


B is for brown, the versatile colour of my favourite pair of boots. They match well with a lot of my outfits. 
  

B is for brown, the palette for eyeshadow that I adore. It's subtle and natural yet gives is a great choice to accentuate my eyes. 


B is for brown, the colour for contact lenses of my choice. It's natural, down to earth, timeless and warm. 


B is for brown, the colour i chose to dye my hair with. It's not too attention seeking yet not too boring. It's the most long lasting among the colours I've tried too. 

And finally, B is for brown, the new addition to Samsung Galaxy Note II colours.

I think the phone looks great in this colour because it looks really elegant and classy. 

Brown gives a really warm and comforting feeling. It's elegant and long lasting too, just like some relationships.

Watch the vid and tell me what you think. =)

其实想听你说:爱我别走

So,I had an awesome last weekend, and part of it was because of this journey up a hill in my little car with Iris.

There was a terrible jam not too far after the RM5 toll. Up the snake-like highway it went and after about 30minutes, we finally saw what was wrong. A container-lorry made a double u-turn on our side of the road.
Which means the front of the lorry is facing the container, forming some thing close to an oval.

It blocked 2 lanes out of 3 which is bad enough, and people from the asshole lane a.k.a emergency lane suddenly decided to merge into the only lane that is moving. Now why they chose to go to the emergency lane and decide to turn back into the legal lane is beyond me. I guess they like the crowd.

After a few "you can do it!!" encouragement to my little car, we finally reached!! Weeeeeeee. Dinner at McD coz it's cheapest and was on top of my mind.

*insert own imagination of Ayam Goreng McD large set here*

After that we went to the casino and both of us tried our luck for the first time there. Luck was taking a break that night.

Then when it was around 8.10p.m. we walked over to the Arena of Stars with 2 extra ticket and we plan to give it to 2 random people. I have 2 extra tickets because I have no friends. --__________--lll I admit it.


Was suppose to go with Jennifer but she had an emergency facial session which would be postponed to July if missed. What kind of shop does that...

Anyway, here we are. Didn't manage to give out the tickets because.... everyone had one already.


Tadaaaaaaaaa. Media seats from Monoah. Thanks a lot. 

Tanya started the concert with a few songs that I love, and a few that I've never heard of. =X Ok, I'm not the crazy big fan, but I swear there probably was at least 1 new song. =X

Some songs that I knew (and could remember) were 双栖动物, Beautiful Love, 若你碰到他,陌生人,and 无底洞.


I love all the display behind the stage.


And of course the glaring lights that look like lazer beams scanning the crowd for smuggled-in cameras. One thing I don't get about being the "media" is why I can't bring my camera in. Not everyone has a 10megapixel camera phone you know. How are we suppose to cover anything without pictures?



The illustrations are really nice and goes well with the songs. On the side screens, there were the words to her songs, so the concert was like a huge karaoke with live singer and a giant sing along.

This illustration below reminds me of Harry Potter. XD


She even covered Lady Gaga's song just to pick up the pace, since her songs are mostly slow. But before she left the stage, she sang Beautiful Love, a very successful sing along.



And Tanya actually gave a spoiler without the alert when she said that a singer/ songwriter that she admires and has collaborated with, will be appearing half way through the songs.

I was half hoping that Stephanie Sun would appear, you know, as a guest singer. =X


And yes, it was A-Yue who appeared. 
Tadaaaaaaaaaaa.
They shared the stage for a duration of 1.5 songs. 
Did a little chat too. 


The spotlight was shining like this for quite long. It went away and came back a few times too. Wrong direction man.


The background of A-Yue's performance were more animated.


Again, the lazer beams. Pew pew pew.


Like Tanya, he sang a few songs that I knew and a few more that I didn't, but I could sing along better to his songs, song like . He even took the time to introduce his band and backup singers.

A-Yue sang more upbeat songs, but he also sat down with his guitar for a slow song too. After he sang his final song,再见,he left the stage. And after some fan screaming and encore chants, both the singers came back up, hand in hand and sang 思念是一种病.



To end the whole concert, they sang A-Yue's 自由,which got most of the audience around my area on their feet. Iris and I included, though we were quite shy because the people behind us were recording. But hey, recording is not permitted. =X


The whole concert ended with a bang. It'd be nice to be sitting near the stage. Imagine confetti raining on you.

I'm positive that anyone who knows their songs has an enjoyable time. It was my first concert so I didn't know what to expect, but this was nice. I would prefer if they spend more time together or at least had more interaction, but it's still great nonetheless. Had a great time singing along to the songs from my teen years. It brings back memories.

It's like I don't know myself anymore

Sometimes I forget who I am.


I like to try out different looks and take pictures because I change so much in such a short time, I want to preserve at least the memory of different identities while I'm still young.  
Most of the time, I'm changing how I look. My hair, my make up, my wardrobe. 
It's fun to experiment around with your looks when you're still young, because as you get older, you get lazier and just conform to whatever you are at that time.

And slowly, you die inside. It's just the physical heart that lives on. 
You become a zombie. 


I keep this question in mind: When was the last time you did something for the first time?
Is your life now in loop mode that everything is just running on auto-pilot?

I'm glad I have a blog and try to be as active as I can,
because with my blog, I have been given chances to try new things from time to time. 
It's a little sad because a lot of my first times happened only after I graduated from uni,
which is when people usually start to settle down.

My first time nearly fainting at an event was last year. LOL. (Due to low blood pressure)
My first time in a club was 1.5 years ago.
My first (not really) party crash was this month. 
My first time to Sunway Lagoon was 2 Saturdays ago, which was also my first ride on the Vuvuzela Ride, thanks to Nuffnang.
My first time to a concert will be this weekend, thanks to Galaxy Group and Don. 

I know too many people who have done most of the mentioned when or since they're under-aged.


Unrelated to the above topic, I just want to say that a woman wouldn't let her man think that he has the need to earn a lot of money to sustain her lavish lifestyle.


Suddenly the idea of marriage is gripping me really tight, and it's not because I intend to get marry soon,
but because there are at least 4 people around me who are currently engaged or will be engaged very soon.
All are somewhat planning for their weddings, and they're all around my age. (Some people my age are already married, not shotgun).

I just find it sad that every time when people my age talk about marriage, all their concern is more on "money". We are such a materialistic generation.

If people from our parents' era could get married by renting a place and travelling around in a motorcycle, why should we expect more? Because we can't handle "poverty".
It's not even poverty for most people, it's just "economical".

Our generation gets so much from our parents that I know a lot of girls who would probably breakdown if they had to live "economical" lifestyle. I secretly wish they'd marry men that earn average salaries. How would you get your designer bags now?

Whenever I say that I could get married without a house or car, people call me naive, that marriage isn't as easy as that.

But why is it more about money now than before?

Here are more unrelated pictures. Because I want to post them.


Act "cute" while I'm still young.

p.s. Sorry for the wordy post with unrelated... Cleavage!!

Party with a book

My laptop has been acting up lately. It keeps tripping either when I'm:
a. working 
b. watching a movie
c. a + b


Been really frustrated with that because it doesn't trip all the time, but when it does, it's when I haven't save my work. Some times I get so frustrated I just decide to throw my hands in the air and say "FTS, I'm just gonna read a book".



But after watching this video, I think I can consider buying this book. 






The Acer Aspire P3 Convertible Ultrabook™


I think it's brilliant how they brought out the strong points of this product in that video, even the fact that the battery doesn't run out fast. =p No need to look for a charging point everywhere you go. Wooohooo.

The Ultrabook™. Inspired by Intel. is Ultraportable as shown in the vid by Vernon, the geeky looking assistant of Tiësto. He brought it everywhere he went and made video calls, so it's detachable, unlike the big laptop, or worse, a desktop that needs to be hooked to a powerplug. 

That, plus the fact that it's touch centric is nice. No need to bring a mouse around. 

Freedom from wires!! 

I'd really like to try it out if I get the chance. It looks quite cool and easy to use. Super portable so I can bring my work everywhere. Good to avoid awkward situations too. Because playing with your phone might look rude, working, on the other hand is more acceptable. =p

Really excited that Nuffnang is giving Nuffnangers a chance to try it out at the Acer & Intel "PLAYsure" Redefined party!! 

Touch all parts of the screen!!!
