SMK BUD(4) Senior Prom 2011 - Bold & Beautiful

From table cloths, chair covers, red carpet arrangements to photowall placement, stage and dance floor setting... after finalizing that and a whole bunch of other stuff, the big night finally arrived - SMK BUD(4)'s Senior Prom 2011. Though not a senior myself (yet), couple of us form fours were part of the Prom Committee, lending a helping hand and earning some experience when it comes to event planning.

Junior Committee with Sue Ann <3
But my hat's off to Sue Ann and Justin the head of the committee for making it all happen. Gotta admit planning an event like this with absolutely no money is tough, but for the sake of  putting a memorable touch to the end of their high school years, they did it. Though there were couple of obstacles along the way that's undeniable, but nevertheless everything manage to fall right into place. The committee is super duper thankful for having such awesome photographers, bands, dancers, that evening, couldn't be thankful enough! :')

Photo timeee :)

Congrats to all the winners that night. I had a pleasant time working with Sue Ann and the others in helping organize this event. I guess everyone knew the hard work and effort she put up for this event, and returned the favor by crowning her Prom Queen of Prom 2011. Well deserved ;) The night ended with everyone dancing their worries away on the dance floor to the thumping beats by the DJ. Well, I hope everyone enjoyed the night in memories of their high school journey. Hopefully, when my time comes our prom too would be as successful as this. Till the next post, xo.

Tanjung Sepat Food Trip


Hello everyone. 
Please forgive me for my sudden absence in the blogosphere, life has been really hectic this year. Also proven by the drastic downhill in the number of posts this year compared to past year's. I have to admit I kind of lost my blogging mojo, I've tried opening Blogger several times before this, but all that came out was 'hello guys' and .... that's it. Oh well, but this time Imma sit my ass down on this not-so-comfortable chair and start typing out some crap that hopefully people will read. 



Tanjung Sepat, known for it's great seafood and nevertheless the Mui Choi Pau (veggie pau).  The family wanted to head down there for a food trip weeks ago, but no action was taken until today. Hmm, must be a 20112011-thing I guess? I would do anything for good food, so food trip it was! Plus, it was a perfect opportunity for a semi-vacation though I wouldn't call it a vacation but, with packed schedules like mine and the rents' where in the world can we find time for a week long vacay. It was my second time heading down to Tanjung Sepat, the last time I've been there was during my Port Dickson trip, we stopped by Tanjung Sepat for lunch and to purchase some of their well known paus, but sadly they were out of stock then. No fret, no fret this time, we've got plenty, and I mean really. 50 veggie stuffed paus, U MAD? :P   Well, obviously they aren't all for us but for ze lovely relatives and neighbours :) 



The SEAFOOD, yes according to my mom if you Google "Tanjung Sepat Seafood", the first place that pops up would be Ocen Restaurant, and yeap that was where we stopped for lunch. The restaurant was situated by the sea thus the breeeezzeee, i laike. As we waited for the food to come, rents' and I decided to take a stroll down the near by jetty. The sun was scorching hot, hallelujah for shades, my eyes would've been fried without them. Great time to even out my two toned skin too ^_^ But seriously, after volley practice that day the two tone got even more obvious, gah someone invite me swimming or to a beach please, I'm desperate to even out my skin tone! Enough of my rants, moving on. Food was pretty good, the clams and crabs were really fresh!, the only downside was the portion of the crabs, it was really small :(  Not long after that, we got back on the road and made our journey back to KL, made a few stops on the way such as the Dragon Fruit Farm, even had a dragon fruit popsicle, hehehe ^_^v and also some kajang satay at the Dengkil rest stop. I'm more than satisfied with this trip though only 7 hours but, heh. Like I said I would do anything to get my hands on some good food ;) Till the next post, take care!

When In Doubt, Cheer Your Heart Out.

These are our excited asses just before leaving for Cheer Clinic 2011.  I love my girls, BLϟTZERZ. Look at our shirts, YES it's finally here! MY DESIGNS, COME TO LIFE! Though I'm a tad bit disappointed with the back and I think we could have gotten a less see through material but other than that it's how I pictured it, clean and fresh, simplicity at it's best ;) That totally rhymed! Can't wait for the black one. 
  
Of all fine days to twist my ankle, it happened during Cheer Clinic, while we were performing our routine to the judges -_- GREAT. You would probably die of laughter if I told you how I twisted it. Should save myself the humiliation and get back to icing my swollen ankle :(

current yesterday's state. Gotten better today, yey ^_^v 

 I'm so hating myself for this. Please god, help me recover in time for competition.

Pray guys prayyyy! FOR BLITZERZ.

[EDIT:]

Screw the counter, competition has been postponed to the 24th of July!
Which, is good new for my ankle but bad news for the competitors since it's only a one day competition! D: There's no room for mistakes, we only got 1 chance to perform, better not blow it.
Competition only gets tougher and tougher each year ._.
wish us luck, bud4 boleh!

Liese Bubble Hair Dye in Chestnut Brown

Hello! Hope everyone's enjoying their school holidays!
Well I sure am, after having to finally dye my hair for the first time. HEEE. I thought of coloring my hair a couple of months ago, that's when I decided to buy the Leise Bubble Hair Dye. I asked Melissa's opinion on it since she has tried Liese's Bubble Hair Dye before and coincidentally she was using the same color that I had bought! I wanted something subtle and natural looking so I went for Liese's second darkest color -- Chestnut Brown. 


I got my hair dye from Sasa. They were having their weekly sale, so it was discounted to RM34 if I'm not mistaken. They even gave me a free mask and a tiny butterfly keychain :)

Hmm, I would say this hair dye is rather fun to do on a little DIY weekend. But I would recommend getting someone to help you on your first try. Like my mom, she helped me out with this one, and since my hair is kind of short I had left overs so she joined the fun x)

MUST DO's:
>> Be in a well ventilated area/ with mini fan or opened windows. This is cause the dye gives out a really really strong ammonia smell, it has already been more than 24hours and yet the smell is still in my hair!
>> Apply oil base product eg.Petroleum Jelly on forehead, ears and neck to avoid staining.
>> Wear some raggy-ol' t-shirt or just cut a plastic bag a tie it around your neck, like what I did. 
>> Wear gloves, duh.
& have fun :D


End results under sunlight.
It's only noticeable when the light hits, but indoors hardly anyone notices it. Unless you actually knew how black my hair was previously, it would be really obvious. Well maybe I'm speaking too soon, cause Melissa says it'll get lighter and lighter after more washes. So we'll see... Overall I guess I'm pretty satisfied with this product. Go give it a try since it's the holidays!

Healthy start.

      salad with grated cheese. slice of chicken ham. passion fruit. These meals are called my home-alone meals. ;)

Great start to my first stress free day after the exams. The torturous 3 week long examination was hell. Had to have the help of caffeine to keep myself awake for some of the long nights up studying. To name a few, moral and add-math.

Didn't attend school today, nor will I attend tomorrow, instead I stayed home indulging in my veggie delights while watching Scotty McCreery get crowned American Idol. I was rooting for Haley since the Top 13 but she got knocked off and placed 3rd, bummer. But out of the 2 finalist I thought Lauren would win it, but it seems America's really unpredictable this year :\ I really enjoyed watching this year's finale episode, the performances were spectacular. Loved Beyonce's performance with the girls, and Lauren's performance with Carrie Underwood. Haley's performance with Tony Bennett was really cool too.


Lauren's Audition ;)
