Last Peeks - Japan
Because of the typhoon in Mie, our flight was delayed not once, not twice, but thrice. Result: we get to stay in Japan for an extra day!!
These pictures of my last day in Japan were taken with my biscuit camera! :D

Momoko Premium Book Vol 2
I bought this together with my Fuuvi biscuit camera (post here).
I like the tights that come free with the emook (they only come in black)!!!
Don't think this is out in Singapore yet?

My new favourite toy
is the Fuuvi Biscuit Camera.....
This camera came free with this magazine! I know right, so awesome!!!! and so generous of the magazine! I'm sold on it for life haha!!
The camera may be small, but it sure packs a punch with its picture quality. Please don't expect to blow up the pictures to like the normal size. I think the photos work very well if kept as vignettes or as part of a collage.
My next move? To find a small pouch/bag for this keeper of a camera!

Thylane Blondeau and Tavi Gevinson
What do both of these girls have in common? Other than their names starting with the letter "T"?
The answer:
//a They are both young. Thylane is 10, Tavi is 15.
//b Both are going to be/already are movers and shakers in the fashion industry.
Case in point:
Thylane has been in many print ads and has no want of modeling jobs.
Tavi is going to start a web/print project for teens - Rookie.
I'm almost a little jealous that these little people get to do their thing at such a young age. Aren't you?

A Garden on the Roof
is my latest addition to my perfume collection!! Its actually Un Jardin Sur Le Toit by Hermes!!
I got it from Bestbuy, an online shop that sells beauty products and cosmetics cheaper (been doing lots of online clicking and shopping because of a sprained ankle) and its a dear! The perfume (7.5ml EDT) comes with a lotion which I can use to layer the scent! So excited right now!
True to its name, the scent actually is rather similar to freshly cut grass, albeit a bit sweeter and floral.
I think I shall use this on days when I need a pick me up! The smell of freshly cut grass always makes my day feel better :D

My Watch List
Here are some of the movies I'm hoping to watch in the second half of 2011. Can you believe its August already?!!
Hanna
A must watch, only because 2 of my favourite actresses are in it - Saoirse Ronan and Cate Blanchett. Second reason? The awesome soundtrack by The Chemical Brothers. Third? Gorgeous cinematography.
Abduction
Starring Taylor Lautner as a normal American teenager who finds out that his parents are not really his parents. I like the script, I like Taylor Lautner's face even better!
Johnny English Reborn
The genius Rowan Atkinson reprises the role of Johnny English, bumbling secret agent who will inevitably save the day. I will watch this simply because the movie will make me laugh. :D
Dolphin Tale
Animal lover or no, this true story will move you to perhaps do something bigger in your life. I am feeling that way just by watching the trailer, but that's just probably me being impressionable me.
Rise of the Planet Apes
Awesome CGI. James Franco. Andy Serkis. John Lithgow. Yes!
One Day
Featuring another favourite actress of mine, Anne Hathaway, One Day is not the usual run-of-the-mill romance. I kinda like that they meet every year on the anniversary of the day they first met - July 15th. Tear fest alert. Not sure if the bf will wanna go with me.
The Help
This movie is based on a novel of the same name by author Kathryn Stockett, about African American maids working in white households in the South during the early 1960s.
Jumping the Broom
I like this other take on African American lives in today's modern times. Jumping the broom refers to the African American tradition of jumping over a ceremonial broom when one gets married. Get ready to be tickled tickled tickled! Its already out, so I'll have to find the DVD...somewhere...
Attack the Block
I like English accents, the real thing mind you, by real English actors - which might explain why I am liking Ms Huntington in the recent Transformers movie, even though Megan Fox fits the bill better. But I digress. This movie picked up the midnight feature award at 2011 SXSW and is produced by the same people who brought us Shaun of the Dead (hilarious movie, go watch if you haven't). Aliens, English people, and the irritating but lovable Nick Frost.
Overheard 2
Back in 2009, Overheard was the best Chinese film I had watched in ages. Helmed by three of the best actors in HongKong - Lau Ching Wan, Louis Koo and Daniel Wu, this movie overshot all my expectations of a Chinese film. I hope the sequel will be as good, if not better. Am I hoping too much? Sequels are seldom as good.

I am in love with
the neon green bag on the left (via stylesightings). The floral cut-out detailing on the straps is what sold me.
Costs USD1095. :(
Homey Weekend
I finally caught a break this week, working a full day only on Friday. Can you believe how awesome that felt?! *big grin
Anyways, as usual, when I have time, I'm always on the net, looking, learning, lusting and absorbing, in no particular order.
Here are a few of my favourite links/quotes/items I found/saw/read this week, again in no particular order. Enjoy!
paper eyelashes from paperself . My personal favourite is the deer and butterfly pair. its made of paper though, so one wonders how reusable this is.
this woman almost upstaged Kate at her fairytale wedding to her prince. I'm referring to Pippa, Kate's sister. Hotness....agreed?
sexy tights. ooh la la here
this would be a good addition to my collection of maxi dresses: edgy razorback maxi dress from static fumes
No stay home week is complete without watching a few tv series. I'm hooked on Korean drama "I am Legend" about ahjumas (Korean for aunties) finding their way through life and their personal problems, and finding happiness and fulfillment through music. Kim Jung Eun plays the lead and I'm taken with her beauty and gawkiness here. An adorable combination no?
I am also making my way through season one of Medium. Awesome stuff. Incidentally season one came out in 2005 and recently ended its run (season seven!!!) in January this year. haha! i'm a slow starter!
This week I finally finished season one of The Good Wife. Getting a little irritated at the hesitant heroine who is right now (at episode 23) caught between two guys - her husband and her boss/schoolfriend. Like make your decision already!!!

Music Live: Gotan Project and Batucada Sound Machine
I went to watch Gotan Project at the Esplanade Theatre last night. Awesome dance tunes filled the theatre together with the light melodies of the violin and jaunty accordion. The highlight of the evening were the electronics used - the tenorion as well as this wii-like thingy. I also loved the staging and lighting design. So inspired right now! And and and!!! The performance culminated in a 30-min (!!!) encore!!! Good, no? My only peeve? A dance outfit in the theatre?? Try a venue with no seats?
I went out to the outdoor theatre to catch the Batucada Sound Machine's 10pm set. Awesome awesome awesome!!!!!!!!! Everyone was dancing to their infectious repertoire of catchy rhythms, cute horn section and adorable rapper!!!
Rewind years back to when Cat Empire came to our sunny shores and performed at the same place. Total deja-vu there.
I'm leaving you with Tremblin from Batucada Sound Machine. Enjoy!!!

This Month I Want....
And I'm still debating whether to buy the Ipad or a Netbook. Went to the IT Fair (for the first time in my life) and saw a Netbook for $399 as opposed to the IPad (Wifi +3G) which would cost me $848.
How??
