Dr Georgia Lee's Fashion Show/Bdae celebrations

I am such a slow blogger! Gone were the days where I'd blog about events mere hours after they happened.

Anyway, here's piccies from almost 2 months ago on the 28th of April - my birthday!

Friends came over at the stroke of Midnight to surprise me! =)

Shuyin even pretended to chat with me on msn on her phone to convince me that she wasn't coming over!!

I asked her why her font turned grey instead of her usual purple and she conjured some lie to patronise me. Hahaha!



Here's Alyssa's present for me! Jagabees in a pink box!!!

Up till now still haven't finish lor! :D Thanks babe!!



Awesome friends! Clockwise from left: Alyssa, Wanyi, Chups, Eileen (whose birthday is today), Shuyin, and me!



With Mike. So happy!

And then that evening, Mike is bringing me out for a nice dinner at Al Forno's!





Two more taken inside the car



In the restaurant awaiting food









My gorgeous pink hair thanks to Mosche!! xoxo



Some call me the Amazing Fork Balancer.



Check it out! I'm so artsy-fartsy.





Our $18 appetitizer...
Vongole in white wine sauce.
Super lovely, but a tad sandy.



Super yums mushroom risotto, added some prawns as a special order.





Mike's pizza... He says Al Forno's pizzas are the best he's tried in SG too!







I love my birthday dress!


RANDOMS:



Found this note written by Mike kiap-ed inside the pages of my The Devil Wears Prada book as I was rereading it.

I think he gave this to me quite long ago. Isn't he the cutest???

The note reads "This is a decoy" at the back, but when I asked him what the decoy was for, he said he doesn't remember! Hahaha... We both have such bad memories.


Pumpkin is a magic dog!!

Seriously man!

I always love to say I shit glitter and rainbows but check this out!



Here's a patch of Pumpkin's pee on an old newspaper.

Are you looking carefully??

THE PEE PATCH IS MUTHAFUCKING GLITTERY!

I swear!



It's like literally sparkling when I saw it!


MY DOG PISSES GLITTER!



DOES YOURS??


I was so amazed I had to take pictures and I even took a video!

So far this pissing glitter thing has already happened twice and I have no fucking idea why it is so! I'm pretty sure I have not been leaving glitter out for it to eat or anything like that.

Is this normal?? If yes why did it happen only twice in the hundreds of times she peed??

Next thing I know, Pumpkin turns into a unicorn or something. WTF. Pissing glitter.



And here are the FASHION SHOW pics!



Gotta love Dr Georgia Lee man... How can a doctor be sooooooooooooo cool and hot at the same time??

It's like she's so fashionable and chio and NICE - and at the same time she's the best at what she does with aesthetic treatments. I super love her!





Worst angle ever... Rozzie mastered it.



Pat trying to be COY. LOL!



Wonder how HIS photo turned out.



This is what happens when 2 Lumixes flash together.



With Cynthia and Rozzie



No, they are not mannequins. Real humans CAN look so perfect.









Hmpf 2 can do the photosnapping thing!



Runway



My ex co-host! Woooo!





Louis and Foyce sitting next to Rozz and I.



Runway... And suddenly, a steady stream of really really ridiculously good-looking male models came strutting out.



Here's one of them. Ahem, I was just testing my camera's zoom function. It, erm, works fine.





And here comes the star of the night!



Dr Lee looking FIERCE!



The models in Y-straps and geeky spectacles - wielding SLRs! Hot!



Wonder where they got so many goddamn cameras from?
So many can just spare me one?









Snap snap and out she comes...







Looking cute



And back



Cynthia giving me a mega-watt smile from her seat.



Super classy setting with a poor guy balancing the double bass (? or is that a Cello??) and an opera singer.





Striking a pose



Me, Rozz and Olivier



And out she comes in a Vera Wang wedding gown!

At first we wondered why she veiled her face...

Stage's covered.

Half naked and carrying a pillow!!!!!!!





Hot hot hot...



Oli likey!! :D :D Me too!







So many of them... If only half are straight, I'd be so happy. I hope that when I die heaven looks like this.

All the girls + gay boys in the audience were salivating...

And it gets better!



They pillow fight!!











And out comes Dr Lee with her ridiculously long legs.

End of show!



Rozz plucking a fluff out from Nat's hair.

Outside posing with Bryan Wong and Cavin Soh.

My ensemble:

Top - $10 from Bugis Village

Skirt - $15 from This Fashion (Yes! That place has awesome finds)

Boots - $27 or something from Charles and Keith sale.

Bag - Most expensive at $150 from Juicy Couture.


Yup. Everyone else was in couture and only my bag was even half couture of the Juicy variety. It's sad. What? I like buying loads of cheap clothes vs a few expensive clothes cannot meh!?



With Nat and a stupid expression on my face. He asked me if I stayed in Jurong and said a long time ago he saw me on the MRT alighting at Jurong East station!

Nat totally checked me out years ago!! Hahaha!! I'm hot!

Ok either that or ridiculous-looking. I'm going for hot.

After that dinner with Cynthia and Nat at Mandarin Hotel...



The view is great but my chicken curry costs more than my skirt/top. -_-


Grabbed some more pics from Rozz's Facebook:



Here's me snapping shots...



At my seat...



And the four of us inside Mandarin Hotel's lift. I told her to tag me 3 times as I appear 3 times in the photo...

And finally, Nat drives us all to Velvet for the after-party.




I didn't go though coz I'm a homebody!! Took a cab from Zouk, how loserly!

Isn't his Domokun cute though?

More blogging tomorrow. Imma go watch Family Guy with Mikey now!


Update: That clears up the glitter in the pee. Don't worry, she hasn't peed crystals in a really long time!

Come flash with me!

Advertorial

Ok I don't know if this really counts as an advert since I'm just urging you guys to join in the next big fun Nuffnang blogging event!



And it's a....




What is a flash mob?


A flash mob, as defined by wikipedia, is a large group of people who assemble suddenly in a public place, perform an unusual action for a brief time, then quickly disperse!!


It's really funny to watch!


I super love to see the expressions on incredulous people's faces.


Check this out:



17 million views on how a group of people stood FROZEN in Grand Central Station in New York!


It's mad hilarious!


Here's more examples of flash mob photos:



Underwear flash mob!


Mafia flash mob?


Startling passers-by is so fun

And models standing frozen!



And guess what...



It's all gonna be happening in Singapore!



Nuffnang is organising a FLASH MOB event right at the heart of Orchard Road - HEEREN!



We are all gonna be wearing PAJAMAS...


Though I don't think our people will look like that


And silently dancing!


Why PJs? Well, this event is linked to THIS Nuffnang Blogging Contest, where bloggers were all invited to write about whether they think Singaporeans dress badly. (IMHO, yes)


And why this flash mob?



BECAUSE we want to prove that even though Singaporeans dress badly, we still look f-ing hot in simple pajamas!



Professional photographers and videographers will also be there to record the whole event. =)

This will be the first blogger flash mob in Singapore, and plus I'm totally excited about the chance to wear skimpy pjs out in public so I'm totally gonna be there.

New love of my life.

Today, I shall introduce to you my new love.

His name is Berry. Blackberry that is!



YES I BOUGHT THE BLACKBERRY CURVE JAVELIN!!



IRL I've started crazily evangelising about the BB to everyone who is capable of using a cellphone.

It got so mad that Mike even commented, "What's the difference between a Mac evangeliser and a BB evangeliser (me)?"

The difference, Mike darling, old love, is that the BLACKBERRY IS AWESOME!

Nowadays, when I realise anyone is also a blackberry user, I start to endlessly gush with that person about how great which functions are, etc etc. We sound like idiots.

Months and months ago Kaykay already got her first blackberry, and she kept on pestering me to buy one.

Like seriously, she asked me AT LEAST (100% serious) FIFTY times. She'd type on the phone, and suddenly shout at me, "Go buy a blackberry!"

It's infinitely annoying and I always responded that I am super in love with my special and pretty Juicy Couture Sidekick.

"Your phone is a useless brick," she'd add, and go back to typing on the CB machine before I can even give a face of rage.

It has come to the point where I started to resent her blackberry because she'd never pick up calls and instead choose to communicate via SMS... Which I found really frustrating.

Imagine going back and forth about what time to meet and blah blah blah... All when it can be done through an easy phone call!

One fine day, I saw her on msn and asked her how come she is online, when she virtually never used to be.

She said she applied for the unlimited data plan and from now on will be online 24/7!

"Really?" I asked.

"Yeah... Go get a blackberry!" she yelled at me for the zillionth time.

"Don't want. I hate all these pda phones they are so confusing. I just want something simple for phone calls and SMSes." I retorted.

"I know it sounds really messy but it is really, really, simple." she said.



And I checked out her phone. What she said was true, so I bought the Blackberry Javelin.

I got to say, it's one of the best gadgets I've ever bought, right along there with the Lx3!!

And I'd show you why!

But first, the biggest problem with the blackberry is that it's REALLY MUTHAFUCKING UGLY.

I don't know what RIM (BB's company) is thinking, but all the models with a qwerty keyboard are like black/silver with immense hideousness. Hello RIM, haven't you realised that not only corporate bores use your products?!


So here it is, blinged:






With flash



Without. The patterns on the top are pearl hearts.



Back with flash



Without



Keys also blinged.

Shuyin says now the keys look like "lovestruck eyes".

And the keyboard looks like a big smile and the berryball looks like a nose!

Hahaha



One more of the BB posing on a Bali hotel bed... :)

Phone: $630
Pink berryball: $30
Gmask to baby pink base: $59
Memory card 2 gig: $20
Gems: $70

And etc nonsense like paid applications... I spent so much on this. But it's all worth it coz so many people are enjoying it! :)




Just a few days ago I realised that the blackberry's little flashing light on top can be changed to 7 different colours via an external application! It used to be just dull green/red - now PINK!

And to boot, as you can see, my phone has a really pretty Fafi theme!

Themes can be downloaded free (mine is) and there are super awesome themes all around like Chanel, Juicy Couture (yes and more than one!), Hello Kitty, Coach... So many!!!


AND NOW I AM GONNA TELL YOU HOW AWESOME THE BLACKBERRY FEATURES ARE!


I don't care if it's geeky and uninteresting. You should still read and go buy a blackberry!


1) MAD AWESOME BLACKBERRY MESSENGER


Blackberry Messenger, or called affectionately BBM for short, is the best thing the blackberry has to offer. Most people would say it's the Push Email function (Email sent to your phone with an alert just like an sms), but personally I don't see why emails are so important they have to be opened on the spot.

Anyway, back to BBM!

BBM is a chat service for anyone with a blackberry and a blackberry data plan. All you have to do is to exchange a PIN number with your friend, and add them!

BBM is 100% free (not counting data charges which is a flat charge anyway) for all BB users... Get this... INCLUDING THOSE OVERSEAS!

As long as you are not roaming, you can use BBM instead of smses to communicate with friends all over the world! Perfect for LDR couples!!!


Here's how the interface looks like:



My friends list.
Eh my phone was resetted so people I've added and lost please add me again -_-



Here's my chat with Kaykay...

See the tiny ticks beside what I typed?

The tiny "D" stands for Delivered and "R" stands for Read.

This means that I know if Kaykay saw what I wrote and chose to ignore me!

Via BBM you can also group chat, send files, etc. It's fucking awesome.



And here's MSN:




My friend list, arranged according to people I chat with a lot and those I chat with less.



That's me chatting with Kaykay again. She disappeared somewhere so she didn't reply me.

This MSN application is actually done by RIM in-house, so when you apply for your Blackberry data plan with your phone provider, you'd automatically have it.

You can let MSN/BBM run in the background and do other things on the phone. When someone initiates a chat with you, the phone will ding and let you know!



TWITTERING




1-step tweeting via UberTwitter.



Reading my @TheXiaxue replies.




FACEBOOK



Update your status or scroll down to read all your friends' status when you are bored. The interface is really neat and easy to understand.



Upload a photo (even auto creates an album for you called "Mobile Uploads"), poke someone or send an fb message. All simplified.



E-BOOKS



What I'm currently reading on the phone.


FML




I was delighted to learn that FML now has an application specially for Blackberry users. It's fucking entertaining and I read it every single night before sleeping. =D



YOUTUBE-ing





Watching my newest episode of Guide to Life via an application called Vision. I won't say the quality is fantastic, but it will do! And sound is good!



GOOGLE LATITUDE/MAPS





Built-in GPS function in phone...

And Google Latitude... This has to be the BEST FUNCTION EVER CREATED FOR DISTRUSTING COUPLES.

Is your boyfriend missing again? No fear... Get him a blackberry and Google Latitude lets you track where he is exactly!

Now he has NO EXCUSES unless he delibrately turns off this function (something to hide) or leaves his phone at home (like that how to contact his mistress hahahaha!).

Awesome or what?!


BLOGGING



I snap a shot... Automatically Blackberry gives me 5 iconic choices:

- Take another picture
- Set picture as...
- Rename
- Delete
- Or the last choice there...




Send it out!


I choose email.




To the secret blogger email address for my blog. Type in a caption. And hit SEND. It's that simple.


Miscellaneous




Little cab application that came with the phone. Love it!



Music player exceeds expectations. Very easy to upload songs (suck my cock itunes). Just plug into the USB port and drag and drop your mp3s into your memory card! No need for any program software.

And surprisingly enough, the speakers are really good!



My homepage with 6 shortcut icons for SMS, BBM, Email, MSN, Twitter, and Pictures!

These are of course not ALL the functions the blackberry has, just my favourites!

I also super love it that the phone lets you assign speed dials according to LETTERS!

So S for Shuyin, B for my baby, K for Kaykay and so on! Now you can have 26 speed dials and don't have to remember which person is what number anymore!

SMSes are also sent in chat formats. :) This explains why KK loves smsing so much.


Oh and one last thing.


I was shocked by my blackberry that day.

I scrolled through my Sim-card's contact list, which I transferred into the phone days ago.

And I saw stuff like this:




Some of my contacts had their companies listed under their name!


HOW THE FUCK IS THIS POSSIBLE?


As you all know Sim cards are only capable of storing Name + phone number and nothing else!

And I myself didn't even know "Lin" worked for Synovate Healthcare!!!

So how did the Berry find out such information?!?!!?

And checking further...



Here's Joan, my ex-manager from Munkysuperstar, on my contact list. Complete with photo, her company name, and ooooh........ Facebook name.

My clever clever little blackberry auto-sync-ed my facebook contacts with my phonebook contacts.

Via their phone numbers!!

How about that for putting the smart in smartphones??


I love my Berry so much! I hate feeling alone and nobody can deny that the blackberry is really the best, communications-wise. I LOVES IT LOVES IT LOVES IT!!!

Ahem.

So in conclusion, everyone should get a Berry!! The reason for this blog post is not because RIM paid me for an advertorial or anything like that (although they OUGHT to!) - but because BBs are only fun if more people had them!

Spread the love and suck on my balls iPhone!


Linkies for BB users because I'm great like that:

Blink - Makes LED lights flash different colours.
Fafi theme
Other girly themes
Ubertwitter
Vision for Youtube - OTA
FML
BerryAnnoying - Suppress Camera shutter sound.
