As White As Snow

Like my school song sang "Simple is Virtue..."
Purity of white brings refineness and delicate.
Nothing fancy nor loud.
Very subtle and peaceful.
Just lovely.

Wish we had the kind of weather to dress like that. It would be fabulous to do all those layerings! The scarves, trench coat, leggings, hoods, jackets, boots and hats. The problem with Singapore is the weather. The only cooler time is during the raining and wet december, where we could dress up more stylishly. We may not have the climate to look that exciting but do turn on your creativity and try look different everytime you dress up. So don't be restricted by our climate and have fun looking great!

Oh NO! We burnt a Xmas TREE!!!


dinner oh dinner!! I couldn't wait to get my hands on those lovely little neck clams. Think it's been an all-ocassion meal for me to eat at Greenwood Fish Market this year. haha! Delighted to have those yummy little things for my xmas dinner. They were BIG and JUICY if that's the way to describe clams. So it was crabmeat vongole & little necks AND little necks with white wine for us. Of course, we could not do without our all time favorite lobster bisque.

Saw the little xmas tree in the pictures? It seats on each table and I've accidentally got ours burnt. Haha..Was playing with the candle, trying to take the best shot out of it and while busy chatting with D ...the xmas tree flamed!! Maybe it was a forest fire in Greenwood..haha...No one got hurt .....just that the poor xmas tree has to be taken away. Oh well....it's the clams that matter after all. Hope you all had memorable evening too and here's wishing you a very Merry Xmas!!

It's Christmas Already?

I've only received one christmas card so far and the festive is just round the corner. How pathetic. Can't believe that it is only 6 days away!! Have you done your shopping yet? Or are you one of those queuing the long lines in shopping malls.

I'm glad I finished mine. This time round I started doing my present hunting as early as Feb and getting them when I see something suitable for friends. I'm gonna do the same next year. Think it's better and less stressful.

Not sure what I'll be doing on Christmas Eve....perhaps a good rest will be good. Wonder how others celebrate theirs?

Connie

Connie caught my attention when sis forwarded the Youtube link she was on in Britain Got Talent to me. Her pitch seems perfect and she sounded almost angelic. You can almost tear watching her sing.

Only 6 years old, she swept the audience away with Rainbow Connection and Ben. Nearly got away as the winner, she came in 2nd place for that season's talent. Not bad for a kid so young.

Her album's out - Over the Rainbow and in store now in Singapore. It's refreshing. You'll find her 2 winning songs as well as the famous hit I Will Always Love You (Whitney Houston) which she sang wonderfully proving her vocal capability. Love it! It's really good to calm your emotions and make you feel like peaceful.

She's on MySpace so check out what's happening to her lately here.

Utter Rubbish - a collection of useless ideas

Visited the UtterRubbish exhibition over the weekend. Refreshing touch to being environmental friendly. Interesting concepts of products, designs, furniture, fashion and architectuals. For a small entrance fee of $5, we brought home with us lots of new things learnt about saving the environment. Took a few pictures to share with you.


These are recycled coasters. Little speech bubbles for your
cups/glasses to add fun to your environment!




Sofa covered with used shirts and pants.



Love this concept! It takes 5 years to grow this stool!!
There is a kit which would help you grow this piece of furniture.



And lastly, me having fun with punchbags made of recycled papers.
I've punched it and it was really quite tough. Hehehe...
