The second mouse gets the cheese

Monday, 6 February 2012

I know I've been missing in action!
Been terribly busy and don't even have time to switch on my laptop the past 2 weeks.
Finally have time for a breather now :)

I just got back from Seoul and OMGGGGGG it was an insane -17 degree celsius on the 2 days I was there! I'm usually cool with -20dc climate (Moscow) since I don't step out of the hotel but I was in Seoul! I had to go out and I had to meet Sau! The helpful concierge had to chirp in saying those were the coldest days in the last hundred years. Thanks!

Soooo good to be back in the +ve degree celsius now and loving my summer clothes!


That's all for CNY! haha

 After too many car rides...

About car rides... A bloody huge cockroach suddenly appeared by my side 
when I was in H's car earlier today!!!
I went "WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT!!!!" and crawled to the back seat!
Apparently H said he killed it and wanted to enter the expressway but its body was nowhere to be found and I cannot bear the thought of being in the same space as that creepy crawly for a 30 minute journey so I forced him to make a detour!
All along there were baby roaches then we put panda leaves but now a huge one??!?!??!!!!
Scared the shit out of me!!!
ARGH DIE ROACHES DIE!!!!

Moving on,
Us before mahjong at Debra's


Mahjong on another occasion.
Totally making it a regular affair!



Because I was practically away the entire festive season, this was my first and only louhei

Liau was so sweet - she baked a cake for Debra's birthday and so we blew candles in advance!


Some outfit posts!
Went overboard with bold colours 

What I wore in San Francisco

My new dress in lovely spring colours!

Regretted not getting the NAKED palette 2 in San Francisco
so I was hunting all around Seoul for naked/neutral eyeshadow colours
and managed to come up with this!

Light enough for the day, not overwhelming yet obvious enough to be seen.
So happy to have found my colours!
Inspired by Yoon Eun Hye in My Fair Lady (Korean drama) haha!

    1. i think it was a size 34.
      san fran wasn't too cold...around 15dc so i only wore a long-sleeved cotton top underneath the jacket.
      don't think i would ever wear this jacket in subzero climate though!
