Way overdue from New Year's Eve but I wanted to brag my nails anyway considering how I don't usually do fancy designs or what not. Here goes the second set of nail polishes that I used from my Sephora by O.P.I set. A simple yet classy design to go for. All you really need is some good ol' 3M Scotch tape, or any equivalent of, to do the trick!Taupe Tip: Already FamousPurple Base: Eve-y on the Eyes

Once again, it's goodbye and hello!Past is the year that have been very kind on me. Albeit there were moments where things weren't going as planned and life got stressful, at the end it all worked out and I can't ask for more. The year also gave me many new experiences which just helps me grow even more as a young adult and in the life that I want to lead. One resolution of mine every year is to

Fun times with the gang! With the five of us together, we had a very sumptuous feast as always. I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas! Keep feasting your way into the New Year! ♥

"Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree." - Blue ChristmasThis is what I spent my past few hours doing, with colours from my new Sephora by O.P.I nail polish set! It's not as professional, but it'll have to do considering how I used an end of a toothpick that I cut off to make flat for dotting. Uh huh, ghetto is the way I roll.

After months of dedication put into making this dream come alive, we made it. It did seem like forever, after all we did start as soon as the semester started, but I must say I'm really proud of ourselves.The wardrobe team were pretty ahead of schedule, so we all managed to take a little breather and we decided to have a little potluck before Opening to celebrate all the hard work. Minutes before

Now that finals was done and over with, it was time to make watercolours on paper come alive. The first I had to do was go fabric shopping in order to build their tops. With the measly budget I had to dress the seventeen dancers, we had to plan things out carefully. Thankfully, Val did not ask for any sort of fancy fabric and that made things slightly easier. Choosing colours was by far the

Moving along after prelims, I sat in for a few more rehearsals and kept the discussions going with Val. She picked out a few designs that she likes, we talked about possible colour choices and she had also presented me with, let's call it my first designer challenge, I guess. At one point in the dance, the dancers get into a formation that is representative of a bird like such:Val mentioned that

The process of costume designing for theatre and dance can be a long and slow one, like how it was for me. I started out by going to quite a few rehearsals just to see and get a feel of what they were doing. For Val's piece, I found that it was an organic process as they played around with different movements and emotions. Each time, it was somewhat different and it really depended a lot on how

It's close to a month since I last wrote anything here. Such is the life of mine at theatre school that I do not really have one outside of it. Aside from the recent Halloween night-out, I've completely traded my social life and gym days for long hours at school. Yet I do not complain for everything I have been working on the past month and the next few weeks to come is my dream come true.If

This is the dream! The Grand Chapiteau of Cirque du Soleil - the land of fantasy where dreams are made alive. After years of wanting to see a Cirque show, my brothers and I finally headed down for the matinee performance yesterday. It was amazing, mind-blowing and absolutely phenomenal. From the acrobatic acts, to the costumes, lighting and projections, everything was so perfect. I'm doing no

Headed down to Centre Island today (the equivalent of Sentosa, only less tourisy), where the bike rental is. Uh huh, twenty-one years of living and I'm finally making it a point to learn how to cycle. I've cycled once as a kid during a family vacation at Langkawi, and I did it with trainers. It was always something that I wanted to learn but never got the chance to, or rather, never got around to

Warning: Gentlemen, read as you please but as the title suggests, it's not quite the topic for you. Scroll down past the heart, and there you'll find a safe start. Okay, so I really need to rant about my menstrual cycle. It lacks some consistency in terms of cycle. Darn it, it's coming for the second time in the month! To begin with, it came a week earlier than expected early this month and now

Not going to lie, I'm kind of stressed right now, so much so that I'm tearing up. I've got no one to blame but myself for not being more organized and all those things that the adults reprimands you for. In two days, my Malaysian passport will expire. If I don't send in my study permit renewal application by tomorrow, I'm pretty much screwed. To add to that, my work permit expires the same time.

For a few weeks now, we have been jogging nature trails and I love it each time we do so.It all started when Mel wanted to bring Emma to a different dog park, as mentioned by Yingming. We Googled the one we thought he was referring to, to find Don Valley Brick Works Park and thus began our little exploration. Bugs and flies aside, I love it. It reminded us of MacRitchie reservoir, and me of the

Whaddup! My first super exciting theatre-filming experience. Jackie, the costume designer whom I worked with previously asked if I wanted to help her with this weird theatre-filming thing, and I thought why not? It was with Native Earth Performing Arts, and this was the third of their four-part series. It was new to me, and a great learning experience, and I got to meet the really nice cast and

The Toronto Fringe Festival kicked in two weeks ago, and I was back at the Box Office working those phone lines every day. I'm glad Gideon, Executive Director of the Toronto Fringe, emailed me back this year. It's a nice festival to work at, with so many great people to work with. Sometimes you get the super nice patrons, while other times you get those that can make you really upset. Thankfully,

I write this post with a very heavy heart.For many of you who do not know, I am born a Malaysian-Singaporean. I was born in Singapore, but was raised in Malaysia during my younger years, up until the age of nine. I have both a Malaysian and Singaporean birth certificate and identification card. However, I only hold a Malaysian passport, of which I used to enter Canada.All have been well for the

Popped by the L'Oréal Professionnel tent after work today at David Pecaut Square, or fomerly known as Metro Square, and got a free hair styling session. While there was a line up, the wait wasn't as long as I expected. We first had a consultation with a colouring expert, and he said that he loved my hair colour. He also suggested, if I wanted to, to hightlight the lower layer of the part of my

So, I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons. And maybe we'll never know most of them. But even if we don't have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there. We can still do things. And we can try to feel okay about them.And even if somebody else has it much worse, that doesn't really change the fact that you have what you have. Good and bad.Maybe

I got off work at 2am, and a co-worker drove me to Yonge street to catch the southbound night bus home. She was going north you see, and I was thankful enough that she offered to drop me off. 2:27am - still no sign of the night bus. A bunny ran out of the bushes and stared at me from afar. It made me smile because it was my only company for the half hour wait. It ran into the first lane, and

It's official, I've stepped into adulthood now.How I actually carry myself though would be a different story.Thank god for such a beautiful day; the best of the week for it has been raining the past few days and will be raining tomorrow too!

So it has begun. The best part of being abroad is that you always get an extra half day to celebrate your birthday! My mum was the first to wish me on Facebook. It was really sweet of her, as always, and I am pretty sure she was watching the clock till it struck midnight.

By now, everyone knows Adele. She needs no introduction to her performance at the Brit Awards where she sang Someone Like You. It is a song that everyone can relate to at some point in their life, and it is exactly the kind of song that I would cry to, especially when I am pmsing or after watching P.S. I Love You, don't judge. You have to agree, it is a brilliant song that touches the deepest,

Turning twenty did not feel any different as when I was nineteen or seventeen. I am still the same me, being childish and matured as and when I need or want to be. In a week, I am turning twenty-one and I don't think it will feel any different. In a year and a week though, then might be a turning point for me, for that is when I will have to move out of the comforts of schooling and step into the

Everyone at fu-GEN and on the Brown Balls team is so nice and awesome, it makes me happy and very honoured to be working with them! See for yourself what I mean by awesome...

8:30am on a Saturday morning, after having had only four hours of sleep, I'm finally willing to write a post here. It's going to be a long one!Life after school felt great - the moment of relief as soon as I handed in my last assignment was such a great joy to me. Sadly, school did not end there. Being on the RTSSU and on the organizing committee, there still was Bunny Ball, the annual grad night

Today a couple asked me to take their photo outside of a coffee shop in Tribeca. Their unnecessary camping backpacks with matching fanny packs, maps of New York clutched in their hands, gave them away.Tourists.I happily obliged.As I was fiddling with the settings of the camera, I noticed the woman was adjusting the man’s shirt. I snapped the photo.“Oh!” The woman said, “We weren’t ready.”I

Assisted Hye with FOH for Mass Exodus today, and I must say it was a great show - from the collections, to the set, lighting and projections. It does to some extent make me want to organize fashion shows.That aside, a conversation with Alex Gilbert, the wardrobe staff supervisor, made me a very happy girl. I was doing my stuff around school and dropped by the wardrobe for a bit. I saw Alex and

Probably one of the best Moist Chocolate Cupcake recipe ever! It's so perfect, nice and moist, even though I didn't follow it to the tee.So here's how I differed:1) I didn't have brown sugar, so I substituted it with half cup of regular sugar and it was still sweet enough.2) I only used one cup of oil instead of the amount the recipe called for.3) I baked it for 17 minutes because I was using a

Winter missed us and decided to drop by for a visit, no kidding. Wednesday morning was the most depressing day ever since it officially became spring over the weekend. I slept on the couch (no biggie) and woke up, only to find it snowing pretty hard outside. It was like December all over again. The worst part of it was that we had already experienced spring. Temperature way above 5°C, no need

This blew my mind. It is so pretty, no words can describe the magnitude of awe I am in. At least once in my life would I love to be stargazing (for the lack of a better term due to my limited vocabulary) out in the woods. Now, I shall off to slumber and stargaze in my dreams.

I'm almost certain I'm secretly Irish deep down. The Chieftains came tonight at RTH with a few special guests, including Jon and Nathan Pilatzke who were such amazing stepdancers. I absolutely loved it, and it made me want to learn stepdancing so much. It seems like so much fun, and definitely a very good workout.Forward to 2:47 for the performance, or watch Paddy Moloney talk about the Uilleann

A co-worker of mine, Darrelle London, played at Neutral just now as part of the Canadian Music Fest and I decided to go since I've been wanting to do so but never found the time to. I must say I liked her songs, it was cheerful and all that, and the lyrics are really cute. One of her songs, Understand was used in the TV show, 90210, and Perez Hilton has promoted for her too after listening to her

It's been five days since I last slept on my bed, and I've learnt to cherish it more than I ever had. Assignments due one after another is making me sit (and sleep) on my couch more than before. This semester or my third year in general is definitely a crazy one.Good news: I received an email from my professor this morning and found out that the one and only exam I was supposed to have this

How we get our positions at the Elgin & Winter Garden theatre is by drawing cards. Recently, FOH got a deck of The Beatles cards and I love it. Tonight, this was the lucky card I picked which got me my early shift.Indeed, it's been a hard day's night and I should be sleeping like a log. Sadly, I'm afraid my night will never end as I battle my assignments yet again. Friday, please come already.

Hello lovely new bangs! I absolutely love it; it is exactly the way I had imagined it to be thanks to Nellie at Salon Liberté. While my face does look round from some angles though it is fat to begin with, I was really happy when my bangs came out heavy and curved down at the sides. My dead ends, too, are gone in exchange for a much shorter length than before. It is sad but my hair is looking so

Say goodbye to my long fringe because I've got a date with the hairdresser for some new bangs and a little trim later in the day, together with Mel.It has been a little over a year since I last did anything to my hair, not even trim the ends. Uh huh, I had left the split ends to grow and rule the strands. I know it is bad but it was the only way to grow my hair out. If you are trying to grow

My first ever UV Gel French Manicure! It was an impromptu decision for me after Mel said she wanted to do one, and I was thinking, why not? We walked up Yonge Street in search for the cheapest one and finally, our walk in the cold paid off. We were pretty amazed by how the gel works (from powder to clear gel) and best of all, it doesn't chip! I can stare at my nails all day, I'm not kidding.

Photo-heavy post coming rather late. Together with my Toronto family, we dined at Crown Princess Fine Dining the Friday of the week of CNY. The 1700/1800s royalty-inspired interior was a lot of bling for one night, but it definitely added to the class factor. The sumptuous meal was very satisfying for the six of us, and we had our share of fun with the cameras for the night.Now here goes.

This is what my life was for the past few weeks since school started this year. The first show of the semester, and the last major one for the fourth year actors. I was assigned the role of Front of House Supervisor, and it was one with mixed feelings, though leaning towards the good side.Being the FOH Supervisor, I began with making the poster (which was rather brainless since I just had to

Happy Year of the Rabbit everyone! After classes yesterday evening, I met my brother to do some last minute Chinatown grocery shopping. We got home around 7pm and started our long dinner preparations like we always do every year. By 11:30pm, the cooking was done and we began our sumptuous dinner. For three people, we cooked way too much but it was reunion dinner afterall! Here's the menu (note

The only time I do not need to photoshop my eyebags away. This was the on-stage senior citizen look we did in make-up class today. Obviously mine is a little overdone up close, and I find it really fake myself too. That aside, you can now imagine how I'll be when I'm an old lady.

In the end, I procrastinated like how I always do and started making my kueh past 3am. This time round, I was working with a different recipe. It started out well and the glutinous rice came out pretty nicely, something I learnt from my mistake on the first attempt. The tricky part came when I was making the green custard. Firstly, somehow clumps would form when I heated it. This time round I was

I was Youtube stalking people when I came across my friend's video doing a cover of my favourite Alex Chu song, If It's You! So much love for Alex Chu, and he's half Canadian! FYI, I'm going to attempt making Seri Muka, or some call it Kueh Salat, for the second time when I come home from work tonight. Let's hope it can be successful!

My brothers, Yiwen and I went for our driver's license theory test yesterday. We had postponed it twice, largely due to us being unprepared. Finally, we decided that we had to do it, it was now or never. We studied like how the average kiasu Singaporean would the night before the test.I had work at 7am, and boy was it tough going to bed at 3am and having to wake up at 5am! Thankfully I survived

My Professional Set 606 by Crown Brush came today! One of my classes this semester is Stage Make-up and Wiggery. We had to buy a kit, and I decided to add a set of brushes to my bag because there's no way I'm going to use my own brushes to do all that greasy stage make-up. Anyhow, the supplier came today and we were all very excited. It's my first full set of brushes and I already feel like a

Yiwen found this recipe with step-by-step photos and we decided to go with it after much research. We started at 11pm, and in the end wrapped things up at 5am. It was six solid hours of dedication to perfecting our onde-onde. Sadly, it wasn't all that perfect. The inside "walls" of

My psychology prof gave us a link just for fun to find out our type according to Jung's typology test. Being the curious me, I took the test and found out that I'm an ENFJ (Extraverted, Intuitive, Feeling, Judging). I laughed at the suggested career options at the end of the test, which includes counselling, psychology, and politics. Me and politics, can you believe it? Sadly, my IQ does not

In the end, we decided to postpone the driver's license theory test yet again for the second time. Dinner at Szechuan Garden (so good though so unhealthy!) and an impromptu decision to watch Black Swan after. It was awesome. Since its first screening at TIFF, I've heard extreme reviews about it and I've been wanting to watch it. It's either you love it or hate. I loved it. It was rather

For the first time ever, I dropped a course. Only two classes and I was already feeling miserable sitting in the three hour long lecture. It's not the length of time that's making me feel crappy because I've had three hour lectures since first year. No biggie. Instead, it's because I just wasn't getting a positive vibe, from the way the prof. teaches to the students in class. There's no exams or

Not too long ago on Facebook, I posted a question as to whether I should take full load courses and give up my four day weekend. Today I made a decision. I attended the first class today in order to see how it goes. In the end I chose to stay. The course seems rather interesting. I'm not exactly sure how to describe it, but it's more or less a look into the psychological well-being and personal

My first ever snowman after almost four years of being here! It snowed a whole lot the night before and we were down by Harbourfront for the Foo family's farewell potluck party. We went to the ice-skating rink, but were unable to rent skates because we didn't have ID on us. In the end, Mel and my elder brother, who had their own skates, were on the rink, while the three of us started building a

Of course I had to pick a film titled Sad Movie, and a poster where all the cast are teary-eyed. It was a last minute option after I realised that I had actually watched my intended film of the night; not a bad option I should say. I actually quite liked the film. It had its funny moments, as well as 'aww, that's so sweet' moments. Then of course came the major tear-jerker towards the last half

My Christmas present from Denise! I've also used Curious by Britney Spears before, both of which are under Elizabeth Arden. I sniffed it a little just now to write this post. Fantasy is rather sweet smelling, fruity to be more exact, but there's a hint of floral scent which makes it nice, at least personally because I love floral scent. It's very suited for someone who's fun and energetic, but

Having a sore throat filled with phlegm that you've been trying to clear for the past few days? Fear not, for I've learnt of an effective solution! Late last night I decided to watch a movie after playing Rock Band. I randomly chose a Korean movie that I found off Youtube, and ended up with Wedding Dress. Man, did I not expect to bawl my eyes out. And I seriously mean bawl till my eyes were

I'm craving so badly for this, it'll be the first thing I have when I step back into Singapore (whenever that is). It's a pity that seafood in Toronto is almost always frozen ones and that spicy food here isn't really spicy at all, and it's even sadder that there isn't much Singaporean/Malaysian food around here. I guess it was a sacrifice I had to make in exchange for my choice to study abroad.

Last summer when the Ho family made a trip to Pacific Mall, we found Beard Papa's! It was the best thing ever that happened in 2010, well almost. Anyhow, PMall (or so it's called) is close to an hour TTC ride on subway+bus so we don't go there very often. In the past week, the siblings, Mel and Yiwen went up to PMall twice, and both times without fail, we would get Papa's Beard (it's how I like

My Christmas gift from Mel and Yiwen! This is the GEO World Series Tricolour Violet. I've got two others yet to be worn, Twin Colour Twilight Brown and something else which I don't remember and I'm too lazy to check, bad blogger I know.

Time and a half at work, with everyone cheery and smiley, was the best thing ever. Watched Babies as we ate our pasta dinner. It's the cutest movie ever, and we had good laughs from commenting on stuff which I won't talk about here. Bottom line is, go watch the documentary if you haven't already! Played a couple rounds of Street Fighter, followed by Beatles Rock Band again! Uh huh, our lives is

Happy New Year! It's already a good one to start with.Mel, Yiwen and Emma came over to our place. We made herbal chicken soup, lettuce and baked fish for dinner, the simplest but very satisfying New Year's eve meal! Watched Say Anything as we ate, and played Beatles Rock Band right after, and we're still at it! The funniest part was when we were playing Octopus's Garden and I realised it was a

31st December 2010, News Year Eve. It's 8°C outside, the nicest weather thus far in December. Sadly, I stayed home the whole day. After work last night, I came home feeling sick again. 38.7°C, read the thermometer. I made some porridge, popped two pills and went to bed. I woke up feeling much better today. No more fever I think, just a very sore throat. If I must say, this December is not my best

Before I forget, I woke up and found this today morning...(click image to enlarge)Jake Bruene adding me on Facebook!? In case you don't know much about my life, I spent the past month being a Youtube junkie, stalking him, Mike Tompkins, Kurt Schneider and Sam Tsui! So in love with such Youtube talents!

Paintball in the afternoon! I wasn't freaking out until I got there, saw the equipments and other strangers all in their gear when I realised, shit! Some were super hardcore paintballers with their own gears, looking all soldier like. Audrey had organised for a group of ten of us to go paintballing. Dressed in our crappiest clothes, we put on their jumpsuit and face mask, and started the game

I ate Chinese medication, rubbed medicated oil on my tummy and slept through the evening while the others were making dinner (sorry!!) yesterday. Though I had moments when I felt sick, especially during dinner which resulted in me eating lesser than I had hoped to because of all the yummy food, I'm feeling much better now!Christmas night was spent doing a little gift exchange, playing some Street

Dear Santa, I don't think I've been a very naughty girl this year.I felt nauseous when I was sleeping, thought I just had to burp a little to stop the feeling. It was hard to burp though, because it felt like something was stuck in my throat. Then I couldn't take it. I ran to the washroom and vomitted into the sink. The scarier part was that what came out was bits of food with a red fluid, but it

I know, at 1:28am? It was a church mass tonight, and we had to work two out of the three holiday shifts. I picked Christmas Eve and New Year's Day (uh huh) because there is no way I'm going to be at

I'm sorry for not drinking enough water. On most days, I didn't even make the effort to ensure that I drank a full bottle of water. I felt my skin drying up and my kidneys suffering. I will drink more water over this holiday!I'm sorry for not getting my eight hours of sleep everyday, or not even sleeping at all for quite a few days this semester. It's brutal I know.

For my Set Design class this semester, we had to design a set for either Hamlet or Zastrozzi. I ended up choosing Zastrozzi though I hated the play so much. It was so screwed up in every way, I wasn't a fan at all. I definitely lacked inspiration and it took me a while before I decided on the design. In comparison to the Romeo & Juliet set I designed in first year, I have to say I don't quite

You never die, do you? People die, but you never do. Because how do you do that? Death is not being alive - and since being alive is what you know, experience, well how can you experience death? You can’t. Because you aren’t alive. So you never die. You can experience someone’s death, you can know of his absence, but you, yourself, cannot die.So life is endless consciousness, right?

Ever heard a tune which you liked but never found out what it was until one fine day it just came to you by chance? This was exactly what happened with me and the third movement of Johannes Brahms Symphony No. 3 at Roy Thomson Hall. I know I've heard it from somewhere before, likely from a super awesome movie because I'm musically inclined and don't usually have the ability to remember symphonies
