How are your weekends Folks?!

It’s the mid of September now and I can feel myself sinking in school and work!

I bet those who are schooling are going through the same thing,

or getting stressed at catching up with work,

especially when all the mid terms are up and coming.

 

Even for those who are working,

time after work and the weekends is precious,

and often you will be thinking what to do and plan ahead of time for relaxation and activities.

 

Just as you read all these,

I know there will be something to do that everyone will always enjoy.

Which is to….

WATCH A MOVIE!

 

Hahahaha, don’t kill me though I know it sounds like a really cliché activity,
I personally love, love, love, watching movies.
Not downloading, but literally going to the cinema is a joy for me in fact.

 

No matter how busy work can be, it’s a must to make time for movies.

Don’t you agree it’s one of the best forms of relaxation?
It could be an excuse to snuggle up to your date (teehee), or some alone (non-talking) me-time with yourself.

Simply put, there is no excuse to NOT catch an upcoming movie especially when it’s an interesting one!

 

You may or may not already know, but I am gonna share with you the latest movie that is talk of the town!

Charlie St. Cloud,

starring hot eye candy, Zac Efron!

Yesssss, Selene told me this before and she has been waiting to catch the movie once it’s out in the cinemas.
Being lucky, I caught its sneak preview last week!! :p

 

Actors/Actresses play quite a part when I am deciding whether to catch a movie,

And of course, needless to say, the plot plays another big part too.

 

Before anything,

wait a moment….

It’s ZAC EFRON we are talking about now!!

I would say this is quite a different type of movie for Zac Efron,

especially when we all know he got really famous during the “High School Musical” hype,

which was a success movie across all age groups though its intended audience was the teenagers.
 

Just as what people have been saying,
Zac Efron has evidently matured and is starting to garner a different audience
(which incidentally makes up a huge part of the movie-going crowd),
and Charlie St. Cloud is most definitely THE movie to prove this point!

 

Okay trust me,
I make sure I will not be a spoiler but here’s a mini synopsis of the movie so you get an idea what it is all about.
I am getting a tad excited myself typing this and I can’t wait for you to watch it and find out what happens in the end!

 

P.S: To the girls,

I think Zac Efron specially trained his body for this movie,

So be prepared to ogle at that very well-built hot torso!

 

Just in case you are wondering,
Charlie St. Cloud is also Zac Efron’s name in the show.

And I just found out that it is based on a Best-Selling Novel called “The Death and Life of Charlie St. Cloud” (by Ben Sherwood).

From the title of this book,
I believe you are getting a slight hint of what the story is about,

Yes, to summarize in a sentence,

The story is about the choice Charlie St. Cloud has to make,
between keeping a promise he made to his brother, who died in a car accident, or going after the girl he loves.

 

And I know I know,

You must be thinking what promise when the brother is dead?!

That’s why you have to go and watch. :p

 

I was blown away by Zac Efron’s acting in this movie,
you could literally feel the grieve and sadness he was experiencing, over the loss of his little brother.

They were two very dear brothers who love sailing and did almost everything together.
Seeing how close-knit their family ties were certainly left me with much to think about after the show.
 

But what’s a movie with no romance? ♥



 

There were some real romantic, intimate scenes in the movie of Zac Efron and the sailor-girl (the girl he likes)
and since I love romantic movies, I will give this one an extra point! Heh.

And to arouse your curiosity further,
they came very close to having an IMPOSSIBLE union…
But that I shall leave you to explore for yourself. :p

 

Here are some stills from the movie to stir your interest!

You gotta watch the trailer if you haven’t a clue what to expect from the movie.
It has an exciting plot, definitely not one of those slow and “monotone” movies for there is an interesting twist at the end of the movie.

 

I bet you must be thinking about it right now,
but there’s really no need to.
Just catch Charlie St. Cloud’s sneak previews showing today and over this weekend (24 – 26 Sep, Fri – Sun)!

Wait, it doesn't stop here. Last but not least……

Here's the trailer that you have to watch!

It's time to reveal something about this website,
which I believe you might have already noticed,
or maybe you have not yet.

Changing to a new domain and a new blogging platform can be kinda complicated,
especially when I am absolutely familiar with blogging at livejournal for the past 4 years.

But its equally exciting when you know you have a new blog awaiting for you,
coupled with brand new customized designs and functions,
and getting used to writing at a new platform is just a matter of time, I'm sure.

And ain't it more rewarding that you will finally have a domain, a space of your own,
with whatever customization you wanna have to better fits your bloggin style and needs totally..
So one of my wishes was fulfilled and I am indeed thankful because..

this website is specially sponsored by wemeanIT.sg!

I was really thrilled about this when the IT guys first approached me at the start of year.
We have been working together since then,
from them understanding what are my blogging needs,
to personalizing solutions and suggestions for this brand new portal.

In fact, knowing that I have a lot of pictures in each entry,
I like the overall simplicity of the layout,
and not overloaded with too many things that will take the attention of the entries away.

And WAIT, it doesn't just stop here..
here're some stuff you might not notice as of yet and I am here to share them!

1. TAGS

And basically, my entries evolve around these main categories as for now.

The left side with the checkered boxes is actually shown inside my blogging account,
and these categories are in fact, all customizable to what you need,
in which you can name it whatever you want it to be too.

 
2. SIDE HEADERS

I know you probably know the first post is always the advertorials,
and from second post onwards, it's the blog (personal) post.

If you notice carefully, they are better defined with the side headers too,
and I love how the word fonts look at the side of the entry box.

3. ADVERTORIALS

Keeping to my old livejournal blogging style,
wemeanIT.sg actually customised this advertorial aspect for my domain,
and the best part is that, they provided me with really great suggestion,
which better enhanced the advertorials for you guys!

Check them out and you can see the effect of the movement of pictures,
definitely looking more professional than before.

4. PORTFOLIO (PHOTOGALLERY)

It is actually the same as photogallery,
but i named it portfolio as it will be more on lil bits and pieces of my past experiences instead.

Being a person who loves to carry her camera around,
I bet you wouldn't know how many pictures,
or how much space my peeks occupy in my laptop/harddisc.

So similar to facebook,
there's a photogallery that can immediately bring you to view the pictures by entry/occasion!

Additionally, I love this part about it. (See Below)

You can simply just click on any picture,
and it will enlarge with a next button to view the other pictures too.

This is not the only effect of a photoalbum,
wemeanit.sg has a lot more choices for you to choose in terms of how you want your pictures to appear,
transit etc.
 

5. DATE, LIKES, COMMENTS, SIGNATURE, ICON@TAB

I guess you are already familiar with these,
and woohoo, I like the font and the way they look.
It's one of the customization function that wemeanit.sg did for me too.

And guess what?!

I literally sign this on a piece of paper (not computer generated!!!),
and the IT guys actually helped to scan it into the computer.
They programmed it in a way that whenever a new entry is blogged,
it will auto appear at the bottom.
Teehee, coolios.

And if you look carefully again at your tab,
you can see the "b".

They did this as well, knowing that b represents the start of my name,
and making it seems more personalized. Woohoo!

6. COMMENTS

Just like the other blogging platform,
the way the comments are approved and replied are as simple as before.

To be frank, I think the commenting system is better here!
Whenever i get a notification, I can choose to reply at the entry,
or just logged into my account and reply from there.
Easy peasy.

7. TWITTER

I love love this placement of twitter,
the bird icon and the colours of it that fit the whole blog's feel.

Kudos to wemeanit.sg,
they made the twitter icon and tweets appearance very professional here!

The best thing about getting your own domain be it for personal or business,
Just two words- Customize and Control.
You can completely customize your online portal to your liking and your total needs,
and by having a whole space which you can personally have control over, without restrictions.

From work-related partners to friends,
I can say Wemeanit.sg definitely takes pride in their work and ensures that you get what you want.

Just like the name sounds,
they mean every single step that they do for you.
I felt awfully bad that i rang them up at random times,
or having them taking time out of their busy schedules to fit mine,
and thankful for these people that answer to each and my every enquiry,
providing personable service to me at the same time.

It's time to move…. for the better!  (yes, i've moved!)
It's your turn now.

My fringe is getting real out of shape.
Wanted to keep it long so that I can try tying up altogether as a pony tail, or can tuck them behind my ears,
but ugh, it gets real heavy and flat so I decided to undergo a self-trim (which I did) over the weekends.
Back to bangs for a while before I go to the stylist to consult for a change.

Oh yeah weeeeeeeee, if you're a BC fan, you're in for a treat!
I managed to get some pictures (those I particularly like!) from Tz (BC's dedicated photographer) before jie's launch on Monday night.


The balmain blazer is back!!!! I got it in black half a year ago, and woohoo, it matches almost all of my outfits if you realised (you can see it in many of my pictures!), and jie brought in two new colours- white and blue one this time!

And the tube jumpsuit is cool beans, the material is real good, in fact, this is one of my favourite materials from those manufactured by BC all along. Oh yes, watch out for the back of this jumpsuit, its a surprise!! Geez

What more can i say? High waisted, high waisted, high waisted. Love the style and material.

Flora is back too! The cutting for the first dress is a big wow!!!
Totally enhancing the bust and waist area.

Being a year senior together with a niche group due to poly previously before University,
most of the Uni friends are celebrating their 21st this year.

Our dear Minqi is turning 21 on the 21st July,
and the weekends were just perfect for her advance party at , located just beside The Cathay.

Was feeling kinda lazy to mix and match an outfit, and at the same time, looking for something in the middle dressy.
Hehehe, rach's maxi came just in time and guess what, I got it in ALL COLOURS! :p
Super love the cutting and the material.

 

It's a nice place, with an absolute accessible location,
but perhaps because there were too many people, I thought the quality of the food was just average.

They have this signature chocolate pecan pie, but i didn't like it at all.
But I like other one – chocolate chip waffle with ice cream, the taste was good, but it was kinda hard

More pictures of the night!
Finally a gathering with the pink panthers, my camp group in year one.

Last Friday was the official last day of the summer attachment,
was supposed to end back then too, but extended to complete what i have on hand.

We all had to do a presentation within the last three working days, and at the very last day,
Deborah, HR of the company was very kind to organize a farewell lunch for the whole bunch of us.
It was absolutely a great time knowing these new friends and colleagues, 
the experience far exceeds my expectations and am real glad to have worked in the company.

What's better than a great view, good food, awesome people and a good farewell not?

You wouldn't believe how many summer interns are there!

Take a look below…
