Valentino- The Last Emperor...

3rd Day Of The New Luna Year...

It's the 3rd day of the Chinese New Year!!! 3rd out of 15 days!!! So, how's life so far!?! My life is amazingly filled with fun and excitement! Everyday, something special (reunion dinner, karaoke singing, meeting up with friends, visiting ex teachers, painting my nails gold in Papa Rich,De Gardens...) Life has been treating me fine these days... However, my late sleeping habit (3am everyday~) has been taking a tole on my already hole filled face... More pimples popping out!!! Oh well... Who cares! It's new years right!?! : D

This year I've felt something I should not feel... Grief... Friends that brought grief into my life... They were really mean to me by not treating me as one of them... I'm like an outsider to them and it sucks to feel that way... Vut this makes me realize who my true friends are... Who loves me the most... Who I should have in my life... My dear friends... My family... My love...

Well, it's the 3rd day now... New year mood is slowly fading away... My wish for this year, is to stop procrastinating... To live my life to the fullest... To be hardworking! To own my life and not let laziness own it... Sounds like I want a lot this year... But I'm confident I'm gonna achieve everything I want!!! CONFIDENCE...

Ellie Goulding, Your Song

I've never heard such a sweet amazingly touching song before... It's an amazing amazing song sung by an amazing amazing singer! Totally in love with it!

Back From Black...

Have no idea why these few weeks, I've submerged myself into inky black waters and feel so darn emotional (as in feeling emo) and now I'm feeling sooo much better... It's been a week of self doubt, soul searching and also self improving... It's been a tiring journey but it was totally worth it now that I'm actually seeing the results... : )

Well, as you know I'm an aspiring fashion designer and I'm now one step closer to my dreams and one step closer towards the stars. I've just enrolled myself into Raffles International College of Arts and Designs and I do believe that I'm gonna have the time of my life there... I hope that this is the opportunity for me to shine and let the whole world know what I'm capable of! I will make it to the top of the fashion industry. I will reach my goals. I will touch the stars... Just you wait!

I WILL BE A STAR!

As for me being self-conscience, it's all because of my face!!! Pimples everywhere (not as bad as it sounds, but still...) they made me sooo conscience of what I looked like, how people would look at me and judge that I'm a dirty lazy person who doesn't wash his face because it doesn't mean anything to me... It's so not me... But I do admit, these pimples are here because I'm sleeping at 2/3am everyday... Darn Facebook! Thank god for Nixoderm and Alore vera gel........... Without these 2 miracles I have no idea what I'd look like during Chinese New Year! Dear face... Please, please, please recover so I look absolutely charming during my reunion dinner... It means a lot to me!!!

Just to brag, I'm going to the gym twice daily!!! And I think I'm seeing the results now! :) that's something worth celebrating for sure! I believe if I work harder, I'll have my 6 packs in no time!!! Wish me luck!!!

Hope I can be as hunky and gorgeous as him!

Chines New Year begins in another few days...... It'll be a time for me to reunite with my dear beloved cousins and other family members. AND I JUST CAN'T WAIT! Nothing means more to me than being surrounded by the people I love the most and celebrating such a vibrant and special occasion... Can't wait! Can't wait!!!

That's all for now..... Till next time, cheers!!! : )

Only Girl (In The World)

My favorite song (IN THE WORLD) !!! *Pun intended... :D

ABOUT !VEN...

As you know... This is Iven's Voice Box... So, it's a place for me to voice out all that's in my heart... I'm not really into blogging, but hey! life's all about trying out new things, RIGHT !?! Hahax... So, here goes!

I was in Singapore recently on a trip that's... Shall I say INSPIRED by Elizebeth Gilbert's worldwide best-seller, "Eat, Pray, Love"... It's a book that I absolutely love, and also a movie (starring Julia Roberts and Javier Bardem ) that I absolutely adore! *Go watch the movie if you haven't already seen it... I watched it a dozen times...

For the EAT part, I ate loads of fantastic food thanx to my cousin sisters... They introduced me to amazing stalls and food outlets... The dishes that I'm still drooling for are the "black chicken herbal soup mee suah" and the sour and appetizing "lah-lah (which is a type of shellfish if you have no idea what that is...)"

Black Chicken Herbal Soup Mee Suah...

Lah-Lah...

This is the place... It's located along Jalan Masjid...

As for PRAY... I did quite some thinking of my own... Although I'm not really a spiritual person, I still do pray... I pray to "God" I have never imagined what he looks like, but I still think that it's fairly important to believe in a higher power that controls the cosmo... I also believe in Dao teachings and like Hinduism very much... Haha... These two religions seem so different yet so alike in some ways... Oh well, God shall always be in my heart, but who God is really isn't up to me to decide...

Praying In the Buddhist Temple...

LOVE... When you think about love,  you think about cupid, the birds and the bees, kisses and red roses... But that didn't happen to me in Singapore... I don't think I was even attracting anyone's attention... I don't think I'm THAT ugly, so that really hurt my self-esteem... But oh well, as long as I felt love throughout this trip that's enough...

What love is to me (in this trip) to me, love is when my cousin sisters took time off from their lives to accommodate me and to spend money and let me enter into their lives... Although I had to sleep on the floor, it was still comfortable to me... Cause it's already a luxury to have a place to call home for that 15days... Over there, life is stressful and hectic... Everything is all about money, money and money... I truly feel blessed to have such wonderful sisters to take care of me and to welcome my stay with them with such opened arms... I am blessed and I am, loved... : )

The Family Of Gorgeousness!

OVERALL: This journey was enlightening to me... It reminded me that life is not easy and money doesn't fall from the sky... It also taught me that sometimes life just isn't gonna be kind to you, and you just have to be grateful for what you already have and make the best out of your current circumstances... As Katy Perry's song goes... After a hurricane, comes a rainbow... Suffer now and enjoy later in life... A quote I need to absorb and tattoo in my brain at all times...

Uniquely Singapore...
